Chapter 69: Invite Song Again
In the quiet and beautiful afternoon, the negotiations between Lu Chen and Wu Hongming were also friendly and sincere.
And it is precisely this sincere and friendly atmosphere that made him not stick to his goal requirements, and the final agreement reached by the two parties is 650,000 signing money + 2-year contract, [Whale TV] has the right to terminate the contract early and renew the contract first.
While Lu Chen was satisfied, he also thought that he should find an agent for himself.
Originally, it is most appropriate for a broker to come forward in such a negotiation, and a qualified and competent agent will always put the interests of the employer first, dare to open his mouth and dare to tear up with his opponent, and completely pull his face down.
Lu Chen himself is not good, although he used Zhao Deping as a stepping stone and occupied a considerable initiative in the negotiations, but because of his personality, he could not force himself to be ruthless, and he would compete with Wu Hongming for the sake of interests.
For [Whale TV] and Wu Shanshan, Lu Chen has always been grateful.
Therefore, the memory experience from the dream world told him that he really needed an agent, and he knew that his future was not on the online live broadcast platform, but in a broader world, and there would inevitably be countless negotiations!
Lu Chen couldn't go into battle by himself every time.
After finalizing the new contract, Wu Shanshan took her laptop and went outside to find a place to print.
Lu Chen and the editor of Yunjing Music Network continued to negotiate with Sui'an.
Even if it's an online album, it's not something that can come out immediately, first of all, Lu Chen has to prepare 10 songs for himself, which is the standard number of songs for a pop music album.
This is of course very simple for Lu Chen, he has already sung six songs, "You at the Same Table", "Love in the Dust", "The Brother Who Sleeps on My Top Bunk", "Cinderella", "Youth Jinshi" and "Beauty", so just add four more songs.
Lu Chen has even figured out which four songs to use to make up for his first album!
But the problem is that the album is different from playing and singing in the live broadcast room, in order to ensure quality and sales, the 10 songs must be arranged, recorded in a professional recording studio with the accompaniment of the band, and post-production.
Lu Chen didn't have much experience in this regard, and the memories he gained in his dreams couldn't help him, because even Xu Bo hadn't released a real album.
However, as long as you make up your mind, all the difficulties can be overcome, especially after signing a new contract with [Whale TV], then Lu Chen will have the money to complete the previous work.
As for the cooperation with Yunjing Music Network, it is only an intention at present.
Sui An is very talkative, and his understanding of pop music and the entertainment industry makes Lu Chen very impressed.
Wu Shanshan came back with a printed contract.
Lu Chen solemnly signed his name on it.
That night, he was at the Furi Hotel and invited three guests from afar to have a sumptuous dinner together.
"Manager Wu, Sister Shanshan, follow the eldest brother"
After dinner, Lu Chen asked, "Do you have any arrangements for the evening?"
Wu Hongming and Sui An looked at each other, and the latter replied with a smile: "I'm going to see a few friends tomorrow, but there are no arrangements tonight, why Lu Chen, are you here to arrange activities for us?"
Sui An has a good impression of Lu Chen, young, handsome, talented, and humble, and polite, unlike many peers who have a little ability to turn their nostrils to the sky, looking like Lao Tzu is the best in the world.
Lu Chen smiled: "If it's okay, then how about I invite you all to sit in the bar?"
Wu Shanshan's eyes lit up: "Is it your Forget-Your-Forget Grass Bar?"
Lu Chen nodded.
Wu Shanshan smiled and her eyebrows curled: "That's great!"
Wu Hongming had no objection.
So Lu Chen took the three of them to the Forget Worries Bar in Houhai.
Because it was a Sunday night, and they came a little late, there were no empty seats in the bar.
Lu Chen hurriedly found Chen Jianhao to explain the situation, and the latter not only provided a reserved VIP table very happily, but also personally came forward to greet the three guests from the deep sea.
After Lu Chen introduced the two sides to each other, he came to the backstage of the bar.
The backstage room is also very lively, in addition to Li Hong, Wang Xiaoshuai and other old colleagues, Sister Na is also there, and there are four male and female singers who are very strange to him, and they should be here to run.
"Ahh
As soon as she saw Lu Chen, Sister Na immediately exclaimed exaggeratedly: "Look who's coming, it's a rare guest!"
Lu Chen touched his nose embarrassedly and said with a wry smile: "Sister Na spare her life." ”
He's now focusing on live webcasts, so he comes to Forget Worries less and less.
After all, compared to [Whale TV], Lu Chen's money in the bar is too bad.
Maybe one day he will no longer worry about money when he becomes famous, then he may go back to the bar, hold the guitar on stage and sing casually, chat and drink music with three or five friends, and kill idle time.
But not right now.
Sister Na gave him a hug with a smile and said, "Sister Na is joking with you, I'm very happy that you can come, let's go inside, Daqin and I have something to tell you." ”
"Good!"
Lu Chen readily agreed, said hello to Li Hong and them, and then went to the small suite with Sister Na.
When he walked over, Lu Chen asked more: "Didn't Brother Ye come at night?"
He noticed that Ye Zhenyang was not there.
Sister Na said: "He's no longer in Forget Worries, count him as having resigned and left, otherwise"
Speaking of Ye Zhenyang, there was a hint of disdain in Sister Na's tone.
Lu Chen nodded and did not speak.
He knew that Ye Zhenyang's departure from the Forgetful Grass Bar had something to do with him, but he didn't have any responsibility.
Sister Na said again: "Xiao Lu, you will definitely enter the entertainment industry in the future, that circle is too complicated, you have to remember that you can't hurt people, you can't have the heart to defend people, some people you treat him well, maybe he will stab you when he stabs!"
Lu Chen smiled: "I know, thank you Sister Na for reminding me." ”
While talking, Sister Na pushed open the door, and the two came to the small suite where the band was.
Qin Hanyang and all the members of the Wandering Band were there, they were rehearsing a new song, and when they saw Lu Chen and Sister Na, everyone stopped practicing, and the drummers all stood up.
Today's Lu Chen is no longer the part-time waiter's singer, his creative talent has a wide reputation in the entire Houhai circle, and the price of 200,000 yuan for a song is talked about by people.
And Lu Chen's original "In the Spring" given to the Wandering Band was exchanged for 5% of the bar shares by Chen Jianhao, and this matter was even talked about as a legend in the circle.
Qin Hanyang put down the electric guitar and greeted with a smile: "Xiao Lu, you came just in time, Sister Na and I are looking for you!"
Lu Chen asked curiously, "Brother Qin, what is the matter?"
Sister Na smiled: "Let's sit down and talk." ”
The things that the two of them wanted to talk about with Lu Chen were actually very simple.
Sister Na joined Qingyu Media with the band Wandering, and their new songs "In the Spring" and "I Want to Have a Home" will be promoted on the Internet and radio next month.
If the chart is successful, then Light Rain Media agrees to release a mini album for them.
The so-called mini album is actually a reduced version of the full CD, usually filled with 5 songs, the selling price is lower than the album, and the distribution method is more flexible, so it is used by many singers, also called thin discs.
Since the Wandering Band has added Sister Na as the lead singer, Qingyu Media hopes that the two can invite Lu Chen to sing a new song for men and women to enrich the content of this mini album.
Qin Hanyang said sincerely: "Originally, this matter should have been brought forward by the company, but the company took into account our personal relationship, so let's talk about it ourselves, of course, the price of buying a song should be as much as it should be!"
Lu Chen understood, thought for a while and said, "That's no problem, can I give it to you in two days?"
Sister Na smiled: "Of course it's no problem, we are most assured of the songs you wrote, and they will definitely not be bad!"
Lu Chen smiled.
After chatting a few more words, Lu Chen borrowed a guitar from Qin Hanyang and went out to perform on stage.
He successively played and sang "Love in the Dust", "Beauty" and "Youth Jinshi", and the three new songs gave great surprises to the new and old customers in the bar, and the cheers and applause never stopped.
The next morning, Lu Chen sent Wu Hongming and the others on the high-speed train back to Shenhai City.
At 2 p.m., he received a text message from the bank.
There are 650,000 more in the account!
