Chapter 47: Should I sign or not?

The next morning.

Galen was still sleeping in a daze, when the sudden ringing of his mobile phone woke him up from a sweet dream.

Raising his hand and fumbling for his phone, he rolled over and fell off the sofa, clutching his arms and grinning and gasping, only then did he remember that he was not sleeping in bed.

I got up and found my mobile phone, and when I saw that it was Wu Chaoyang's call, I couldn't help but pick it up and complained, "Brother Ang? What time is it?"

"Look at what time it is!" Wu Chaoyang couldn't help but smile when he heard Galen's sleepy voice, "Okay, you come to the company quickly!

"What's the matter......"

Galen muttered, the head was already hanging.

Putting down the phone and squinting for a while, then I got up to get dressed and washed, and after everything was done, I ran to the door of my bedroom and knocked on the door.

"Yingying!"

"What?"

Chen Yingying's lazy voice came from inside, Galen twisted the doorknob, only to find that it was actually locked, so he had to say, "I'll go to the company and wait for me to come back for dinner at noon!"

"Oh! Come back early!"

Galen said a few more words, turned around and left, he was not afraid that Chen Yingying would look through his computer, anyway, the second-hand notebook had a password, and all the hidden folders in the new notebook had been technically processed, and ordinary people really couldn't open it.

took a taxi to the company, and as soon as he arrived at Wu Chaoyang's office, he was hurriedly pulled out of the door.

"What's so urgent?, Angkor?" said Galen strangely.

Wu Chaoyang said, "Your new EP may change, I don't know what the specific situation is!"

Galen opened his mouth wide, and his heart suddenly became anxious, "It won't be out of it, will it?"

"Hehe, it shouldn't be possible!" Wu Chaoyang shook his head with a smile, "I don't know the specific situation, but the company has invested so much, why should it be possible to give up?" But you have been singing so many new songs outside recently, and the top management has a lot of opinions!"

"What's the point!" said Galen depressedly.

"Alas, the new EP is about to be released, but the songs in it have been exposed in advance, how can the EP be sold?

Galen said indifferently, "Anyway, the record market is not in a recession now, it is better to release a digital album directly, it doesn't matter if the physical record is actually released, it is a big deal to release a commemorative edition in the future!"

"Hehe! you can think about it!" Wu Chaoyang couldn't cry or laugh, "Okay, Lao Li is still waiting, go and see what they say!"

The two entered Li Ronghao's office, which was no longer as chaotic as when Galen came the day before yesterday, although there were still some clutter in the corner, but the overall appearance of the office was still there.

At this time, Li Ronghao was sitting on the sofa chatting with a woman, and when he saw this woman for the first time, Galen exclaimed in his heart, isn't this the queen Liu Xiayu?

Why is she here?

Seeing the two of them coming in, Li Ronghao stood up and said, "Alun is here, let me introduce you first, this is our largest shareholder of Rainy Day Music, Miss Liu Xiayu!"

"Oh......! I like your music very much!"

Galen hurriedly stepped forward with a smile and said humbly.

It's still not appropriate to call Mr. Liu, and I don't know what position she holds, but what I didn't expect the most was that the queen would be the largest shareholder of the new company.

Being able to work with the diva is what every musician in the circle looks forward to the most, and seeing the diva so closely, Galen feels very lucky, like a dream.

Liu Xia Yu was not as cold and arrogant as the legend, but stretched out his hand very gently and said, "Hello, Galen!"

Seeing that the queen stretched out his hand, Galen hurriedly responded, seeing his jerky appearance, Liu Xia couldn't help but smile, "Don't be nervous, it's not the first time we've met!"

"Oh?" said Galen, puzzled, "I wish I hadn't seen you before!"

"That means you didn't wait until the end!" Liu Xiayu smiled softly, "I saw you in the magic capital before, the performance of everything Cola!"

"Ahh

"Yes!" Liu Xia said, "I listened to your song "From No. 87 Xiafei Road to No. 18 on the Bund", which is very creative!

"Uh......," Galen cried and laughed, "this song isn't actually called that!"

"What's that called?"

"It's called "Bund 18"!" Galen thought for a moment, and it was better to use the original song title.

"That's it!" Liu Xiayu nodded, "And the song "One-Night-in-Beijing" you sang at the music festival yesterday, the fusion of rock and quintessence Peking Opera is very bold, and it is a new genre, this time I didn't call it the wrong name, right?"

"No, no!" Galen smiled.

Liu Xiayu frowned and looked at Galen seriously, and then said, "I'm wondering, where do you have so many strange innovative ideas in your head?

"Hehe, you've won the prize, it's a little fight!" Galen said modestly.

If it weren't for that second-hand notebook, he would probably still be singing in a bar right now.

What kind of new genre pioneers, this is not something he can think of, and it may not be created by the inherent thinking mode of people of this era.

"You're making a fuss, what about the other musicians?"

Liu Xia said, his voice changed, "But it's precisely because of this that I don't think the EP you recorded before is suitable for launch!"

"What do you mean?" Galen's worst fear came, couldn't it really come out?

Liu Xiayu said, "The seven songs you made in your previous EP have not only been released on the five-star music network, but also five of them have been used in the TV series "The Year of Graduation" and the movie "Youth Breaking the Wind"!

"Oh!" Galen nodded, suddenly confused, "wait......! The first album? Isn't it an EP?"

"That's right!" Liu Xia said, "I was originally going to EP!" But there are too many new songs that you have exposed now, so, so far, all your songs that have been exposed on the market will be used as film and television songs, and your real first album will be produced from today, and the whole album is tentatively set to be 12 works, that is to say, you have to take out twelve works again, if you have the bottom of the box, you will hand it in for review with emotion, and enter the production immediately, and at the same time, there is a very important thing, from today onwards, you are not allowed to sing new songs in any place!"

"Huh?" said Galen, surprised, "so harsh?

"Of course you do!" Liu Xia said, "After your first album is finished and released, the company will also release an album that includes all your film and television songs, including the songs that the film and television company invites you from today onwards!"

Galen doesn't seem to understand it, but he knows that he will definitely be stressed in the future, although the EP has been changed to an album, but the new album requires every song to be kept secret and not allowed to be leaked.

But he can understand it after thinking about it a little, after all, no singer's new album will be fully exposed before it is released.

The simplest is to take online singers as an example, no matter how many originals have been uploaded on the Internet before, but after signing a company to release a new album, none of the songs that have been released on the Internet before will be used.

Liu Xiayu saw Galen's face gloomy, so he comforted, "Although the production cycle of this album may take half a year to a year, you are still young after all, and more time to polish the foundation will be of great benefit to you in the future!"

"This ...... I know!" Galen nodded.

"That's good!" Liu Xiayu breathed a sigh of relief, she was afraid that Galen wouldn't be able to think about it, and continued to smile, "From today onwards, your itinerary will also be adjusted, like the previous roadshow of Wanshi Cola, and you will generally not be allowed to go again in the future, the company will arrange for you to go on some variety shows and participate in some film and television dramas, anyway, it won't let you lack money to spend......!

Liu Xiayu suddenly stopped, and took out a few pieces of A4 paper with a smile, "You take a look at this first!"

"Huh?" Galen took the pieces of paper suspiciously, only to see that there were a few big words written on them, "Music Production Entrustment Agreement".

This turned out to be a contract?

Further down -

Party A (entrusting party): Liuxia language

Party B (Contractor) :(blank)

Contract content: Party A hereby entrusts Party B to be responsible for the music creation and compilation of Party A's new album project.

The specific content includes: 10 original music works, 10 arranging and production.

Looking further down, the article on copyright ownership says that the intellectual property rights of these ten songs belong to Party A, that is, Liu Xiayu, and Party B enjoys the right of authorship.

Originally, Galen wanted to argue a few words about this article, but when he saw the payment fee and method, Galen shut up and dilated his pupils in surprise.

Because this article reads - Party A personally pays the total cost of the project with 10% of the shares of Rainy Day Music.

And from the moment the contract was signed, Liu Xiayu had to take out four percent of the shares of Yutian Music as a deposit, and all the dividends generated by the shares after the transfer belonged to Party B.

Seeing this, Galen couldn't help but smile, "You're asking me to make a new album for you?"

"Do you dare to accept the challenge?" Liu Xia smiled deeply.

Galen was not bewitched by her, and raised his eyebrows, "Are you trying to pull me onto a warship? What if the company loses money? What if you have no shares in your hands at all?"

"Don't worry! The contract has clearly stipulated that if this situation occurs, I will pay you 10 million directly!"

Liu Xia said, "Do you think Yida will cheat you? The new company will pay for you and me?"

"This ......," Galen hesitated.

Liu Xiayu is so generous, ten percent of the shares may be just a little drizzle for her.

But for Galen, it is a very huge wealth, once signed, it means that he is no longer just a signed singer, but one of the bosses in the real sense.

He's just a newcomer, how can he?

And what did Liu Xiayu like about herself?

Should I sign it or not?
