Chapter 366: I pulled it out
"Lao Lin, I can see it, do you want Tan Jing to sign a contract with your company? It's not that I don't give face, I'm afraid this thing won't work out, it's all nonsense to say anything now, let's wait for this tape to become popular." Hong Tao understood what Lin Di meant, and he had been reminding himself of this for the past two days.
"Then you mean that if you don't sign a contract, you will be a self-employed person?" Lin Di reacted quickly and understood what Hong Tao meant.
"Almost, when publishing a song, only talk about the publishing fee and share, which company gives the right conditions, go to that company to sign, but only sign the song, not the person. Hong Tao affirmed what Lin Di meant, he definitely wouldn't let Tan Jing, who was smashing money and popularity, go to other companies as a cash cow, isn't this a screw.
"Then her agent can't really be you, right? Do you know these signing things? If you really understand, you won't sign this publishing contract with us, just advance a piece of money, you will suffer a big loss!" Lin Di even revealed the inside story of his company to Hong Tao, which made Hong Tao a little surprised, what is he going to do?
"Then what do you mean?" Hong Tao really made Lin Di confused again.
"I'll help Miss Tan get the contract in the future, whether it's signing a song or signing a contract, I promise to give her the best price, what do you think? Not only these audio-visual publishers in China, but I also have some connections in Hong Kong, and it's not impossible to negotiate. According to my expectations, Miss Tan is very likely to be popular this time, not because she is popular, but because the songs she sings are popular, and there will be a lot of issues such as copyright in the future, even if you can fix it. It's also very troublesome, so it's better to leave it to me to do it, and it only costs a little money. Lin Di stretched out two fat fingers. Gestured a filigree-like slit.
"How much do you want?" Hong Tao understood, Lin Di wanted to be Tan Jing's agent, and he also saw that Tan Jing was becoming popular again, mainly because Hong Tao had laid the groundwork too well in front of him, and it was difficult to get popular if he didn't want to, so in the recording studio, there was Tan Jing's wall calendar.
"Ten percent! Ten percent of all contract income!" Lin Di understood when he saw Hong Tao. Two more fat fingers stretched out and crossed together.
"What about me, a genuine agent?" Hong Tao was noncommittal about the price.
“…… You are still the agent, and you are still the one who signed the contract with Miss Tan. It's just that I was given the right to do it...... All contracts, for you to see, I will not miss a word, all activities. It's up to you and Miss Tan to decide whether to participate or not. I'm just responsible for looking for these opportunities and then negotiating the price of those contracts and earning a commission. When Lin Di heard that Hong Tao still had the face to say that he was an agent, he almost didn't smack Hong Tao's face, but he still held back.
"I agree in principle, but this price can only be this year, and this licensing contract between us must also be signed once a year. At least this year, if you can say yes. Tomorrow, we can find a lawyer and draft a licensing contract, what do you think?" Hong Tao thinks it's better to let Lin Di try, he himself doesn't have the experience and energy to run these performances, advertising, copyright, publishing, industry and the like, and this Lin Di, anyway, is professional, especially his small eyes, which are deeply recognized by Hong Tao. Hong Tao believes that anyone with such eyes must be capable people and can be conditionally trusted!
"Okay, let's just say it, the specific details, we'll talk about it tomorrow!" Lin Di seemed to be very satisfied, and stretched out his fat hand and shook Hong Tao very formally.
"I want to ask you a question, who is the songwriter of these songs? I've been doing this for 10 years if I'm in school, don't lie to me that you did it alone. It's not that I don't believe that you have this ability, but I can see that you are the same as Lao Liang who is recording, you are both playing technology, having a musical foundation, and being able to play musical instruments. But I don't believe that these songs are all written by you, these songs are definitely not a person's style, style is in the bones, and you can't learn it. Before the hands of the two people let go, Lin Di brought up his white and chubby face, and whispered in Hong Tao's ear, with the kind of cunning light in his little eyes that you can't fool me.
"It seems that you still don't know me, I'll go to my elementary and middle schools to listen to it, and see what my buddies have been doing since childhood, this kind of song I usually squat in the toilet for a few minutes, and I can hold it out. The style changes with what you eat on the first day, when you are happy, it is impassioned and inspirational, if you eat too many chili peppers, it is miserable and sad and resentful, and when you catch up with constipation, it is rock and roll!"
"Lao Lin, don't mention what is professional or unprofessional in front of genius, do you know what a genius is? Genius is when you are still stepping on the threshold, I have already begun to write Hong Tao's First Symphony. Follow me in the future, I'll be happy that day, and if you hold back a few more songs, you won't be an agent, let's have a squint-eyed combination, and also taste the taste of being a singer, believe it or not?"
"It's useless for you to just say that it's so lively, you have the ability to come up with something, so let's do it, I don't ask for much, don't take out a bunch of them, you find me three The kind of songs you pulled out, I'll listen to it, I won't bully you, I'll take these buddies in the band, the five of us, as long as three of them say yes, I'll have your surname in the future? I will do what you say, if you can't take it out or can't take it out, then we have to change this contract, Miss Tan's activity arrangement will listen to me in the future, and divide it to me and raise it by five points, dare to bet?"
"Do you want to pull it out now or before?" Hong Tao directly threw away half of the cigar in his hand and threw it on the wooden floor outside the recording room, and the flesh on Lin Di's face trembled.
"Uncle dear, you are not allowed to smoke here, if it burns me, I'll be in trouble! Whatever you want, I'll take it all over the dry, Lao Liang! Finish work today and eat with me!" Lin Di's violent temper is really not pretended, his smile is pretended, after picking up the cigarette butts on the ground, he opened the soundproof door of the recording studio, yelled at the recording engineer who was still competing with Tan Jing with guò headphones on the recording table, and then squinted at Hong Tao, very unconvinced.
This little guy really him off today, judging by his years of experience in this industry, it is absolutely impossible for these songs to be written by one person. He is not so much optimistic about Tan Jing, but optimistic about the person who wrote songs for Tan Jing, to be precise, it should be those people! He has many friends in the circle of audio-visual production in the capital and even in the whole country, but there are songs he has never heard before, and a large number of them pop up at once, which is a strict challenge to his identity.
No musician is allowed to do this kind of thing, and once this kind of thing happens, it means that you have been abandoned by the majority of musicians, and you don't even have the eyes and ears for it, and you still do a fart music system! He has to force Hong Tao to expose those people behind him today, even if he only needs to see a familiar musician, he can know that these people have emerged from that horn bar.
"Are you sure? If you lose, can I understand it like this, you will be my subordinate in the future, and I don't have to pay you a salary, you listen to me in Tan Jing's agency contract, including your share? Hong Tao no longer argued with Lin Di at this time, he probably estimated what he wanted to do, and at this time, he took a step back to make the prey more assured and bold to pounce, and then fell into his trap.
"Don't, don't feel sorry for me, don't worry, you also spent money on this belt, I promise to do your best for you, I don't look at your face, and I won't go with the money." But Miss Tan's subsequent exhibition, I think it's more appropriate for me to operate it, unless you prove to me that you do have this ability, Miss Tan, what do you say?" At this time, Tan Jing and the musicians in the recording room also came out, they didn't know what Lin Di was arguing with Hong Tao, and they stood aside with big eyes and didn't know what to do.
"Hong Tao is my agent, I listen to him!" Although Tan Jing didn't know what was going on, she didn't inquire or ponder, and simply answered Lin Di's question. For her, Hong Tao is not only her agent, but also her future guarantee, which Hong Tao has proven to her, she has no reason to trust an outsider.
"What do you say?" Lin Di didn't care about Tan Jing's answer, he had seen a lot of girls who had just entered the industry, and the important thing was not her opinion, but Hong Tao's.
"Then let's go, go to me, Lao Lin, you brought it on yourself. Hong Tao picked up Tan Jing's clothes and bag and handed them to the girl, and then pulled Tan Jing, who was still a little dazed, to take the lead and walked towards the door.
When Lin Di stepped into Hong Tao's office, he had a feeling that the environment, the layout, and the red wine, cigar smoke, and yerba mate that he couldn't even name were infected to him. He is not a dirt bun, he can be regarded as a master who has eaten and seen in this era, in a fashionable phrase, he belongs to the kind of person who is at the forefront of the times, he has also been to Hong Kong, and he has also cooperated with large companies such as Polygram, Warner, and Rolling Stone, but this feeling that he still seems to be a little dirty, and he has not felt it until here.
