Chapter Ninety-Six: Signing Zheng Yuan
The next day, at half past nine in the morning, Xu Yang left the hotel with Zheng Yuan and went to the airport in Kyoto.
When he was on the road, Xu Yang made a phone call to Liu Ruoning and Su Zhendong respectively, telling them that he was going back to Haishi, hung up the phone, Xu Yang called Cao Han again, and asked her to prepare a singer's contract in the afternoon, and their company was going to sign a newcomer to go in, by the way, Xu Yang also asked Cao Han to check Zhenhua Entertainment's contract for Zheng Yuan, a singer.
If you can't find out anything, tell Su Zhendong when the time comes, and let him help check it.
Although Zheng Yuan himself said that Zhenhua Entertainment no longer needs him to lose money for his breach of contract, he must be insured if he can be insured, otherwise, when Zheng Yuan is more famous, they will come to fight again, and this kind of thing will be difficult to do.
Everyone understands people, although the company did something wrong, but they fired Zheng Yuan under the pretext of damaging the company's interests, there is no doubt about it, and things that can be solved with money are not a big deal, so if you need to compensate for liquidated damages at that time, Xu Yang will compensate.
No matter how much money you have, it's not as valuable as the person in front of you!
......
At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Yang took Zheng Yuan to his dream studio.
As soon as he arrived, Cao Han came over directly, didn't say much, and directly showed Xu Yang what he had investigated.
After reading it, Xu Yang realized that when they signed Zheng Yuan, it must have been to achieve Yu Ming and destroy Zheng Yuan, so they directly wrote a high price of 500,000 yuan in liquidated damages, first, they wanted to tie him to his company's car for a long time, after all, Zheng Yuan is a new singer, and his annual income is not 100,000, 500,000, which is an astronomical amount for him, and second, they are also ready to abandon Zheng Yuan, with this limit of liquidated damages, he will definitely not say anything unfavorable to his company.
Double insurance, it seems that this Zhenhua Entertainment is playing very well!
And now, Xu Yang wants to sign Zheng Yuan, then, he must compensate for this money, after all, this is the fastest way to solve the problem.
Glancing at Cao Han, Xu Yang asked, "Does Su Zhendong know about this matter?"
"Yes!"
Cao Han's answer was simple.
Hearing this answer, Xu Yang directly took out his mobile phone and called Su Zhendong, asking him to deal with Zheng Yuan's liquidated damages as quickly as possible, and in the name of Longpeng Network Company, because, at least, their headquarters are in Kyoto.
At first, Zhang Jingrong just passed on the information about blocking Zheng Yuan in order to prevent Zheng Yuan from damaging Yu Ming's reputation, but when Su Zhendong came to the door and sent him 500,000 yuan, Zhang Jingrong took it with a smile, and handed over the signing contract of Zheng Yuan left by Zhenhua Entertainment to Su Zhendong, and by the way, he also wrote a receipt of 500,000 yuan and gave it to him, of course, this money must be in his own name and has nothing to do with Zhenhua Entertainment Company.
An uninformed little singer got a huge sum of 500,000 yuan, what a good deal!
Moreover, Zhang Jingrong also believes that since Longpeng Network Company dares to pay this money and sign a contract with Zheng Yuan, then, this kid will definitely not tell what he knows, after all, once he says it, no matter whether Yu Ming, himself, or Zhenhua Entertainment will have any losses, first of all, the big loss will be Longpeng Network Company.
This reason is very simple, Zhenhua Entertainment is an elephant, and Longpeng Network is just a small crawler.
How dare a little reptile face up to the elephant? Isn't that a joke?
......
At 6 o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Yang received a call from Su Zhendong, and the matter had been done.
Of course, the 500,000 was directly transferred by Xu Yang to Cao Han from his own company to Su Zhendong, after all, in the final analysis, this matter is still a matter of Dream Studio.
The matter is settled, and the next step is to sign the contract.
Soon, Zheng Yuan became the second artist of Xu Yang's company.
Artists must have their own assistants and agents.
Xu Yang asked Cao Han to help find a reliable agent and an assistant, and then help Zheng Yuan find a place to live in Haishi, and all the expenses were counted in the company's accounts.
After explaining everything, Xu Yang left here and went straight back to the rental house.
The song has been recorded in Kyoto, and new songs will be released in the last two days, which is also an explanation to those fans, and the variety show "Variety Show" still needs to be at the helm by itself, and in his spare time, he has to continue to complete the novel, counting it, Xu Yang's time is also very tight.
After having a meal downstairs, Xu Yang turned on the computer in the living room of the rental house and continued to write the unfinished novel "The Chef of the Flower Teapot".
Maybe it was because he signed a singer with potential, Xu Yang was in a good mood, and he wrote until two o'clock in the morning before he slowly turned off the computer.
After stretching his waist, Xu Yang went to the bathroom to wash.
Tonight, Yang Mu's guy didn't return all night, as if his office had become his bedroom.
Sighing, Xu Yang, who had finished washing, went to sleep on the top bunk.
......
At 9 o'clock the next morning, Xu Yang got up.
After washing up, he went downstairs for breakfast.
After that, he started his morning run again.
It wasn't until 11 o'clock that I returned to the rental house.
After going out again, Xu Yang did not go to the Dream Studio, but went to Haishi TV.
Yesterday, Luo Hong called him and said that he had encountered some problems and asked him to go over and help solve them.
came to Haishi TV and found Luo Hong, Xu Yang understood what the problem he was talking about?
It turned out to be a matter of song copyright!
When planning this show, Xu Yang thought about this problem, therefore, as long as the songs of the king and queen that the celebrity guests want to imitate, as long as they are still alive, Xu Yang will buy the cover copyright of their songs, and he is most afraid that those people will talk about this, so in the first issue, there is no problem with all the songs sung.
Even the songs sung by Li Feiting by the American celebrity MAK are covered copyrights bought by Xu Yang to communicate with the program team about his company.
The problem now is not whether anyone sells their singing copyrights, but those kings, the queen of heaven saw that the premiere of this show was so popular, and unexpectedly, the price of a cover song was raised, and the price of a cover song was mostly between 200,000 and 300,000 yuan, this price is not low, it is not good, it is a little too high.
After all, those songs have been sung by others, but Xu Yang gave this price out of respect for his predecessors in the music industry.
And now, the lowest one of them asks for 800,000 yuan, and the highest one is 1.5 million, which is the cover copyright! Some songs have been released for more than 10 years, do you want this price?
Do you dare to ask for such a price? Aren't you afraid of being scolded?
In fact, those people's thoughts, more or less, Xu Yang also knew some in his heart, it was nothing more than wanting the white wolf with empty gloves, because they expected that even if the program team did not agree to their request, they would not do anything with them.
However, it was Xu Yang who they met, so he wouldn't care about his face and curry favor with those people!
Since they themselves are not afraid of trouble, why should Xu Yang be afraid?
Moreover, those kings and queens of heaven are big names if they say it well, and those who don't say it well are artists who are out of breath.
After reading the price tag for those songs that Luo Hong gave him, Xu Yang thought about it and smiled.
If you want to play, let's have fun!
What Xu Yang did next really made Luo Hong dumbfounded! Do you dare to do this?
However, if you want to do this, it is best to borrow the official website of Haishi TV.
Without giving Luo Hong too much explanation, Xu Yang went directly to Weng Tao.
Hearing what Xu Yang was going to do, Weng Tao, like Luo Hong, was dumbfounded!
However, when Xu Yang proposed that Shi Fei would immediately produce the drama "Chef Fang of the Flower Teapot", Weng Tao finally compromised, and his request was only one, which could be used on the official website of Haishi TV, but the name was Xu Yang's name.
As long as it's the official website of Haishi TV!
Subsequently, at a certain moment, the official website of Haishi TV released a message, which was first marked by several oversized exclamation marks "!", and then, wrote: "Due to the issue of cover copyright, the second episode of the variety show "Variety Show" has been temporarily postponed, what is the specific reason, the following photos will give you the answer, the initiator, Xu Yang, the chief director of the program. ”
The photos below are exactly the quotation list that Luo Hong gave Xu Yang about all the kings and queens.
Above, not only the name of the song, but also the name of the offeror, whether it is the agent, the assistant, a senior executive of the company, or the singer himself, is marked in it, in order to be afraid that this influence will not be able to attract everyone's attention, Xu Yang also deliberately marked the names of the original singers of all the songs.
Such as: the song "Remembrance" - the original song, the king, Xiang Yiping. The cover copyright price is 950,000, the offerer, the agent, Wu Yong.
Such as: the song "Fly" - the original singer, the diva, Hu Meier. The cover copyright price is 1 million, and the offerer, the company's senior management, Wang Qiang.
Such as: the song "The True Meaning of Life" - the original singer, Tianwang, Feng Zikai. The cover copyright offer is 1.1 million, the offerer, the singer himself, Feng Zikai.
......
This piece of information was released, and suddenly, the people who saw it were stunned!
