Fifty minutes passed quickly.

The negotiation was mainly conducted by Lucas and the other party, and Wu Tian sat on the side and listened quietly, cooperating with shaking his head and nodding from time to time.

Lucas was very serious, and screened the various signing conditions and agreements put forward by the other party in detail one by one, and at the same time put forward more aspects that could be expanded, and threw out more requirements.

At the same time, the three negotiators of Warner Bros. Records may not have thought that the author of the two popular songs turned out to be a Chinese, and some were not prepared, plus Lucas had learned that Wu Tian's songs had been at the top of the AMG website, and there were more than 20 record companies invited to cooperate with him.

"Lucas, you're fantastic. ”

After the Warner Bros. Records were gone, Wu Tian gave Lucas a thumbs up.

A few thousand dollars is indeed worth the money, and Wu Tian believes that after Lucas's negotiations, he will definitely win more benefits for himself.

Although these capitalists are optimistic about Wu Tian's music, they will definitely pay as little as possible, and even want to sign Wu Tian all the way to the record company as their cash cow.

Lucas took a sip of coffee and said with a smile: "Charlie, I told you a long time ago that I am the most professional, and I have a way to deal with these guys." Of course, your song attracts them, and that's the main thing. ”

After a break of about ten minutes, two staff members from Capitol Records arrived on time.

Wu Tian and Lucas continued to negotiate according to their previous strategy.

However, it is obvious that the two negotiation opponents, after seeing that Wu Tian is a Chinese national, have a contempt, and vigorously say that their company is strong, and the market of the country is large enough, as long as Wu Tian cooperates with them, he will definitely be able to earn enough money.

After only half an hour of negotiations, Lucas unceremoniously sent them out of the room.

Lucas closed the door a little angrily and said to Wu Tian: "Charlie, I think we can rule out cooperation with Capitol Records, their sincerity is not enough, even if the strength is strong, it is not good for the promotion of your music." ”

Wu Tian nodded, he was indeed a little dissatisfied with the attitude of the Capitol Records, it was obvious that they were a little discriminatory against themselves as Chinese, and at first they were entangled in whether the two songs were Wu Tian's own originals.

Although those two songs are not strictly Wu Tian's original, in this world, they are original, and they have not been before.

However, Wu Tian is not in a hurry, and it is normal for the pass family to pass, and the sincerity of the previous Warner Bros. Records is still very sufficient, and the initial royalty ratio given has reached 18%, and the proportion of other revenue sharing is also relatively high.

Of course, Wu Tian is not in a hurry now, and Columbia Records has not been discussed.

At four o'clock, the negotiators of Columbia Records arrived.

They were two men and two women.

Looking at the tall woman with blonde hair flying at the end, Wu Tian couldn't help but be stunned.

If Wu Tian didn't admit his mistake, this woman turned out to be Celine Dion.

The twenty-eight or nine-year-old superstar actually appeared in front of him with the people of Columbia Records.

Wu Tian couldn't help but wipe his eyes.

A smile appeared on the corner of the mouth of the middle-aged man who walked in the front, and it was obvious that Celine Dion's arrival shocked Wu Tian.

This is an important weight for him in this negotiation.

After introduction, in addition to Celine Dion, the other three are Joseph, Jack, and Doris.

Joseph is a senior manager at Columbia Records, Doris is his assistant, and Jack is the company's legal counsel.

Joseph introduced Celine Dion, a Grammy Award winner who just sang the theme song "The Power of The Dream" at the Atlanta Olympics in Argentina, and is one of the hottest pop singers at the moment.

Although Joseph was very surprised to see that Wu Tian was a Chinese, he soon felt that this was not a good promotional material, as long as it worked, it would create more topics and quickly increase Wu Tian's popularity.

Of course, because of nationality and skin color, it is still necessary to adopt some strategies in terms of specific promotion, so that the audience has a gradual familiarity and understanding process.

The initial royalty ratio given by Columbia is 20%, and the advance payment is roughly 300,000 yuan, and the specific standard depends on Wu Tian's other songs.

In terms of promotion, you can even arrange its well-known singers to cooperate with the publicity.

Obviously, Columbia's sincerity is very good, and the conditions are better than those of Warner Bros. Records.

Lucas's attitude is much softer, and he is also a fan of Celine Dion, and his eyes look at Celine Dion from time to time during negotiations.

"Charlie, I listened to your song, it was a beautiful voice from the depths of my soul, and I was fascinated. Recently I had a friend who was writing a theme song for a movie, and he had been working hard but couldn't find the music he was looking for. I think your song "My Heart Will Go On" is a perfect fit for that movie......"

Celine Dion's voice was soft, like a spring breeze, and her face was full of sincere smiles, "That movie is about a beautiful love story, a giant cruise ship sails for the first time, a poor painter and a noble woman abandon worldly prejudices and fall in love, and when the giant ship hits the rockery and sinks, Jack gives Ruth the chance of life!"

Wu Tian was surprised, isn't the story Celine Dion telling the plot of the famous "Titanic"?

This romantic blockbuster produced by Twentieth Century Fox Film Company and Paramount Pictures, directed by Cameron, took up to 5 years to prepare, starting with the script in 1990, exploring the wreck of the Titanic in 1992, and starting production in 1995, until July this year, the official start of filming lasted five years. The film cost $200 million, and after a year of painful struggles and numerous delays, the film was completed at the end of December 1997 after a year of painful revisions and special effects.

In fact, this most expensive film at that time swept the box office list as soon as it was released, with a global box office income of 1.835 billion US dollars, creating a myth in the history of world cinema and becoming a symbol of Hollywood at the end of the 20th century, and also making director Cameron have reached the highest peak of world commercial cinema.

The film was the most expensive film in the history of cinema at the time, ($600 million in North America and 360 million yuan in China), becoming the first single highest-grossing film in the history of the world and North America. The swan song of unsinkable love on a sunken ship, a cautionary proverb that human beings should always examine their own inferior roots.

The song "My Heart Will Go On" in his previous life was also created for this big movie.

Celine Dion feels right, this short four-minute song is actually a condensed version of the whole film.

The song itself is very beautiful, coupled with the poignant story of the movie and the scenes of the big production, making this song a classic among the classics.

As long as you listen to an English song, there is hardly anyone who has not heard this song.

Wu Tian was a little moved, if this song could become the theme song of "Titanic" like in his previous life, it would bring him huge fame and fortune.

Celine Dion saw that Wu Tian was a little moved, and smiled slightly: "If I can, I want me to sing this song with you, and then recommend it to Director Cameron, I believe that with his vision, he will definitely accept her." ”
