Chapter 13: The Invitation of the Matte
Yuan Weiliang walked out of the office with the courseware in his hand, and was about to go to the class to inspect it, but he didn't expect to see a man probing his brain at the door of his class from afar.
"Hello, who are you looking for?"
The man was dressed quite fashionably, and he was not very old, and he looked like the brother of a student.
Zhou Hai turned around and found that it was a teacher, so he hurriedly bowed his head politely: "Hello teacher, my name is Zhou Hai, is Yang Yang from this class?"
Yuan Weiliang took the business card handed by the other party, which read: "Modu Yaguang Group Co., Ltd., Assistant Director, Zhou Hai." ”
What does Yaguang Group do?
Zhou Hai saw Yuan Weiliang's doubts, and hurriedly explained: "Our Yaguang is an entertainment media company, and our main business is involved in film and television songs. ”
"Scout?" Yuan Weiliang glanced at Zhou Hai in surprise.
Zhou Hai nodded: "You can understand it like this." ”
Yuan Weiliang deliberately refused Zhou Hai's visit, but after all, he was looking for Yang Yang, and without knowing Yang Yang's wishes, he did this a bit oversteppingly, and if Zhou Hai had a heart, it was not something he could block.
"Okay. Yuan Weiliang nodded, "I'll help you call Yang Yang out, but you only have twenty minutes." He still has classes. ”
Zhou Hai showed a hint of joy on his face: "Don't worry, it won't delay him for a long time." ”
...
"You mean, your company sees my potential and wants to invite me to join?" Yang Yang repeated the question again, and when he saw the man named Zhou Hai in front of him nod affirmatively again, his expression became strange.
Moreover, Yang Yang glanced at the business card in his hand, and it was this matte again.
Some time ago, an uncle named Peng Guofu once threw an olive branch to him, and he didn't take it to heart, but he remembered clearly that the business card given by that person was also written "Yaguang".
I just sang a song at the school celebration party, but I didn't expect to attract the legendary "star scout". Yang Yang felt a little incredible, he knew that the video he sang was indeed very popular on the Internet, but this kind of fire should only spread among ordinary netizens, how did it burn to a big entertainment company like Yaguang?
To be honest, he was a little moved, this Zhou Hai did come with sincerity, and even brought the contract. Yang Yang roughly swept it: As a contracted singer under Yaguang, Yaguang will provide it with professional packaging, training and a series of publicity and marketing, and the company will take a part of all the singer's income (such as commercial performances, various activities, and record sales, etc.). This part can be large or small, mainly depending on the strength of the singer and the benefits it can bring to the company.
To be honest, money is the least important thing for Yang Yang, he really doesn't lack money. He knows the economic conditions of his family best, and he can't say that he is rich and rich, but his family is absolutely well-off.
And with the things that I brought from my previous life, money, I will have it sooner or later.
What Yang Yang lacks now is a springboard, a platform, and a stepping stone that can take him to knock on the door of the entertainment industry. This stepping stone can be matte, gold, silver, it doesn't matter what light.
He just needs a chance.
It stands to reason that since money is not a problem, then Yang Yang should immediately sign and sell himself. But he still chose to refuse, for the simple reason that the contract was too long, a full seven years.
If this is signed, it will really be a deed of sale.
"I've also seen Yang Yang's video, and that song is really good. I heard that it is still original, and Yang Yang's young age is really amazing. Zhou Hai saw that Yang Yang had been holding the contract for a long time, and finally couldn't help but break the silence.
There was a slight exclamation in his tone, and he praised the other party slightly, a little boy of this age is the most addicted.
It's a pity that Zhou Hai miscalculated, Yang Yang just smiled at him, and then said: "The time limit of the contract is too long, I really can't accept it." ”
Zhou Hai was slightly stunned, he didn't expect the little boy in front of him to refuse for this reason.
"The contract time is the company's regulations, and all singers who have just entered the industry start with seven years. I'll be honest with you, if you go to another company, it's the same condition, or even more demanding. Our Yaguang is quite kind in the industry, like Kyoto's Changfeng Records, they treat new artists who have no achievements as 'ten-year sales deeds'. Singer Chen Yuan, you should have heard of it, he signed a ten-year contract in Changfeng, and then found a rich new owner and lost a lot of liquidated damages before jumping out..."
Zhou Hai felt that it was sincere enough to say so much to a little boy who didn't know anything, but Yang Yang still smiled and shook his head.
Zhou Hai was a little unhappy in his heart, if it weren't for the fact that Li Jian had shown considerable attention to this boy named Yang Yang before he came, he would have thrown up his sleeves and left if he had changed to someone else. Love to sign or not?
How many people want this paper contract and can't ask for it, but he still dislikes the harsh conditions. Zhou Hai had contacted a new singing student named Sheng Wei before, and his fame and potential were greater, but he didn't take the initiative to sign a contract immediately, and the contract was still ten-year long.
Some people may think that the time of signing the contract is a kind of shackle and a kind of bondage, but is it a star singer like Chen Yuan who has the strength and popularity and has become popular? Many third-rate singers who are not famous wish that the longer the contract lasts, the better.
Zhou Hai decided to use as euphemistic a tone as possible to wake up the little boy in front of him, so that he could understand what kind of weight the thin piece of paper in front of him now had in the industry.
He pondered his sentence for a moment, and was about to speak, when suddenly his cell phone rang.
"I'm sorry to answer the phone. Zhou Hai said hello, walked to the side quickly, put the phone to his ear, and said in a slightly respectful tone: "Director..."
Yang Yang looked at Zhou Hai, who was on the phone, and then looked at the contract in front of him, and suddenly felt a little bored. If this Zhou Hai is telling the truth, there is no need for him to rush into this circle at all.
The online media in this world is more developed than in his previous life, and he can completely hype himself, similar to songs like "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky", he throws out a song every once in a while, maintains the search heat, becomes an Internet celebrity first, and when he accumulates a certain fan base, when he is invited by an entertainment company, the conditions are definitely much better than now.
I'm only seventeen years old this year, the same age as a flower, what are you afraid of?
Yang Yang clarified his thoughts, only to feel that there was a sudden brightness in front of him, he had already thought about it, and when Zhou Hai came back, he would say goodbye to him euphemistically. I still have classes in the afternoon.
Soon, Zhou Hai came back after the call, and before Yang Yang's words of "I'm sorry, maybe I have to go first" came out of his mouth, he saw Zhou Hai looking at him with a little shock, and said: "Yang Yang, can I invite you to go to the magic capital with me? ”
