Chapter 385 of the text raises the price code again

Next chapter

"Brother-in-law, I'm really not a sycophant on your back, I've never seen a more talented musician than you! I think even God is jealous of your talent, which is why your life was so chaotic when you were young, and it would be terrible for your life to be smooth sailing all the time! ”

After reading "Fighter" written by Lin Zaishan, Guan Yaling was extremely impressed! In her opinion, Lin Zaishan's talent is too outstanding! Not only is the Chinese song written well, but the English song is even better!

Guan Yaling already knows that the two most important songs "Roar" and "Bleeding-Love" on Li Xiaoni's British album are both written by Lin Zaishan.

Although these two songs did not make much waves in the British music scene, and did not even break into the top 30 of the UK Music Weekly Chart, the quality of these two songs is exceptional. It's just because the singer is a yellow-skinned Asian diva that he hasn't won the approval of the arrogant British.

If these two songs are sung by the queen of Europe and the United States, it will definitely be a big hit!

Asian singers have always been discriminated against in the European and American markets, which is an objective reality that cannot be changed in a short period of time.

However, in Guan Yaling's view, Lin Zaishan's English works are of high creative standards, coupled with his own strong singing skills, if there is really an Asian who can sweep the European and American music scenes in the future, this person must be Lin Zaishan!

"Brother-in-law, your song "Fighter" is too burning, the tension and explosiveness are super sufficient, it is too suitable for you to sing in the finals! This song is sure to ignite the enthusiasm of the audience! ”

"If it was a solo piece, I wouldn't have chosen this song. It is better to sing solo or Chinese songs, and the audience is wider. I want to see if you can sing this song well, we can sing this song together at the beginning, and raise the level of the finals as soon as we come up. ”

"I think it's difficult for me to sing this song, which spans a bit of a large register. I can't top the treble. Guan Yaling is very self-aware, as soon as she looks at the tune of this song, she knows that she can't control this song.

Let her sing it, and she will definitely be able to sing it, but it will take too much skill and falsetto. And if you want to sing it in falsetto, the momentum of the song is gone. will become very weak.

This song is absolutely suitable for Li Xiaoni to sing, and this kind of song is most suitable for Li Xiaoni's wide and high vocal range diva singing.

"You don't need to sing it all, you can sing it wherever you want, we can reasonably distribute the singing section of this song, I will top it if you can't top it, as long as you cooperate well, this song is full of murder!"

"That's right."

In the first round of the finals, although it was a chorus of instructors and students, it was more important to highlight the singing skills of the students. It is more important for the mentee to impress the audience than for the mentor to impress the audience. After all, this is a competition for cadets. The mentor is just a favor.

After some discussion, Lin Zaishan and Guan Yaling practiced.

This practice is an hour and a half.

Guan Yaling was taken by Lin Zaishan, and she sang this song quite with feeling.

Singing passionately with a super high voice like Lin Zaishan, just like competing with top athletes, Guan Yaling's fighting spirit is extraordinarily high, she is not sleepy at half past twelve, and even has the energy to become more and more excited the more she sings.

Lin Zaishan had a busy day. It's a little tired. His voice, in particular, began to get tired after half past twelve.

He recorded the "Singer-Songwriter" album in the morning during the day today. In the afternoon, I went to Li Xiaoni to rehearse the concert, and my voice never stopped.

After tossing and turning for so many hours at night, his throat was already getting tired.

Before the final, he had to protect his throat and not let it get too tired. So as soon as it was half past twelve, Lin Zaishan took the initiative to stop the night's practice.

"Let's practice here today. My voice is a little tired, and I should be dumb if I sing again. ”

"Well, brother-in-law, then let's practice again tomorrow!" Guan Yaling is quite unsatisfied.

Lin Zaishan was also a little unsatisfied, he felt it. He and Guan Yaling sang this song very dramatically, and it should be able to move to the finals of "Singer-Songwriter". But tonight is too tired, he can only rest first.

Guan Yaling didn't go home that night and stayed at Li Xiaoni's house.

At night, she heard the "ghost crying wolf" from upstairs again, and it was quite itchy in her heart.

This little thing between men and women, men can't do without, and they always think about it when they don't have it, but once they have it, they stop as soon as they vent, and they won't die begging for nothing;

Women are just the opposite, usually they can not have it, or they don't want to, but once they have, they don't want to stop, Li Xiaoni is such a typical example. In the past ten years, she didn't have to, but now that she has, she doesn't want to stop for a moment.

……

The next day, Lin Zaishan and Guan Yaling went straight to Caidie Records, continued to practice singing, and recorded the album of "Singer-Songwriter".

His "Singer-Songwriter" album has been decided, and he will make a two-disc album with 20 songs, including all the works he sang on the stage of "Singer-Songwriter", including such controversial works as "High Animals" and "Junkyard".

Turnip and cabbage, each with its own love, he wants to try to meet the needs of fans of all tastes.

In addition, this two-disc album will also include all of his audio works that have been announced on the Beyond forum, such as "Ordinary Road", "Friends", "Blue Lotus", "Once You", "No More Hesitation", "Don't Forget the Original Intention", "Butterfly" and many more.

At the same time, it will also include works such as "To You", which made him a lot of wedding money, which can be described as a super classic collection.

As for the repertoire arrangement of the album, Lin Zaishan doesn't have to worry about this, it's all left to Wu Yifan's production team, he just needs to record all the songs.

If nothing else, the album will be officially released on Sunday, March 9, the day the second dragon of the second lunar month rises!

This album, which was defined by Wu Yifan as the strongest album in 2008, doubled the songs, but maintained the standard of a single disc album of 50 yuan, full of sincerity.

Originally, Caidie's team saw that this album included so many good songs, there were 20 songs, so they wanted to set the price high, the original double-disc album of this plane, generally has a starting price of 60, and the singer of the fire point can be sold for 100 yuan a piece.

But Mr. Lin didn't want to raise the price. After all, this is the first official album released after his comeback, and he wants to conquer the hearts of listeners with the greatest sincerity and make the most classic and affordable album for everyone.

Besides, according to the sluggish shape of the record market in this plane, even if you raise the price. It can't increase much income, but it may be because the price is too high, the sales of the director's records will decline, and it will be even more uneconomical inside and out.

Simply, he came to give it away in a large amount, and used this sincere "Singer-Songwriter" album to rush the annual sales list, strive to enter the top five, and accumulate some capital for his road to being a singer.

At present, he is still far from the hard standard of "5-10-15-20-25".

Eat the rice one bite at a time. The road has to be taken step by step, and he has to walk solidly every step, striving to turn all the albums he releases into classics in the future.

In the morning, I was busy in Caidie, and in the afternoon, Lin Zaishan went to the national entertainment headquarters across the first floor from Caidie, and held a meeting with Li Xiaoni's team to discuss future cooperation plans.

Starting from Lee Hyo-ni's Donghae concert on February 24 the day after tomorrow, Lin Jae-shan and Lee Hyo-ni are officially tied together.

Their next big plan is the "Extreme World" collaboration at the end of March.

The final signing agreement has been finalized on the Starfish Terrace, and Lin Zaishan and Li Xiaoni have signed on it.

This word needs to be signed. In mid-March before the start of the show, Haixing Channel had to pay Li Xiaoni and Lin Zaishan an pre-payment fee of 5 million yuan. Even if there is a sudden problem with the show and it can't be recorded, the money will not be refunded. ――This is a special care that no other artists who join the show have.

Other artists will also receive a part of the video advance payment in advance, but the amount is much smaller than this, and the maximum is only 1 million. Of course, their value for joining this show is much lower than that of Lin Zaishan and Lee Hyo-ni.

Generally, the value of artists participating in this kind of variety show is confidential. The artist's agency team will have a promotional price, but the price code that is actually implemented and the value of the publicity often do not match.

According to what the team of Guoyu has learned, the real appearance fee of the second season of "Extreme World", the second-ranked tennis star Zhuang Depeng and his wife, and the boxing champion Ge Yunlong and his wife, only took 5 million appearance fees. and a video bonus of 1 million per station, which is nearly double the price of Lin Zaishan and Li Xiaoni!

Guoyu's economic team is very powerful, and at the end of the negotiations, they raised the price of Li Xiaoni and Lin Zaishan, and the appearance fee of the two has been raised to 9 million! This is a full 50% higher than the original 6 million price code of Starfish Terrace!

The prize money for each station recorded by the two has also increased to 3 million.

The reason why the team of Guoyu finally raised the price again was because Lin Zaishan bit it to death and did not let go of 4.5 percent, which greatly surprised the income expectations of the Xiaoni team.

Li Xiu's previous ceiling was to only give Lin Zaishan 4 percent of his income, but he didn't expect Lin Zaishan to be much tougher than he imagined, and he dared to divide 4 into 5 from the queen of heaven, and even ask for 5 percent! That's a bit too ignorant!

Because Li Xiaoni and the senior management of Guoyu had to strongly promote this cooperation, Li Xiu could only compromise with Lin Zaishan in the end, and talked with Lin Zaishan about the sharing ratio of 5.5 to 4.5.

In the meat that Lin Zaishan accidentally lost, the wolf of Guoyu could only bite back from Haixingtai, and finally raised the price of the two of them by one level!

In this way, if Lin Zaishan and Li Xiaoni can match the 9 races, they will receive a pre-tax remuneration of 36 million!

If you can win the championship, the reward will be even higher!

Lin Zaishan is divided into 4.5 percent, with a pre-tax income of 16.2 million and an after-tax income of about 11 million.

Li Xiaoni is half of 5.5 percent, that is, 2.75 percent, with a pre-tax income of 9.9 million and less than 7 million after tax.

In this way, Li Xiaoni earns a lot less than Lin Zaishan, which is the most unacceptable place for Li Xiu and other Xiaoni team members!

You know, the total recording time of this show is almost two months!

If Li Xiaoni does other work, no matter what she does - whether it is a celebrity, or a commercial performance event, or a concert, as long as she does it for two months, her income will be more than 7 million!

According to the original plan of the Xiaoni team, let Li Xiaoni bring a newcomer to the idol of Chinese Entertainment to participate in "Extreme World", Li Xiaoni's net income can easily exceed 15 million - this is her true value as a diva, but now it has shrunk by more than half, and the team of Chinese Entertainment has an opinion that is certain.

But Li Xiaoni insisted on doing it, no matter how much she persuaded her, they had no choice. I can only do this show at a loss.

Li Xiu and the others now especially hope that Lin Zaishan will have a situation before the recording, such as a car accident or something, and the injury can't move, so that they can change people to video.

Or, in the game, Lin Zaishan is injured, and temporary substitutions are the best - both to take advantage of Lin Zaishan's recent hot momentum to bring a bit of topicality. There is no need to pay Lin Zaishan so much, and he can also promote newcomers in national entertainment, which can be described as killing multiple birds with one stone.

Now Li Xiu's biggest wish is to see Lin Zaishan, a dry and thin old man, get injured and withdraw from the recording in this highly competitive show.

But even if Lin Zaishan was really injured in the game, Li Xiu couldn't see it with his own eyes, because the show has a hard rule - the artist's agent can't accompany the filming.

The program team that does outdoor variety shows is very experienced, and if the artist goes out to record with his agent, then the show will not be recorded. The agent will keep making trouble with the program team, and he is not allowed to shoot this, nor is he allowed to shoot that, and he is too protective of the artist, and he will be strictly dragged to the process of recording.

In order to avoid this kind of trouble, the production team of large-scale outdoor programs like "Extreme World" will sign the clause that they are not allowed to bring an agent with them into the contract before signing a contract with the artist, so as to prevent the agent from looking for trouble in advance.

Li Xiu originally negotiated with the program team of "Extreme World". I hope that the other party will consider Li Xiaoni's status as a diva and the particularity of participating in this variety show for the first time, and make an exception for Li Xiaoni to bring her own team to accompany the shooting.

But the "Extreme World" program team has a very tough attitude on this matter - asking for money. I can give you more, but Guoyu wants to bring its own team, this is absolutely not good!

In this regard, regardless of whether the other party is a diva or not, the program team treats everyone equally. Otherwise, an exception will be made to open this opening. Other artists also want to bring their own teams to shoot abroad, so don't shoot this show.

The cost of filming overseas is very high, the schedule is very tight, and they must not let these things affect the shooting plan.

is like a super king like Liu Tiancheng in the first season. can't bring their agents to shoot overseas, and Li Xiaoni can't make an exception.

Although you can't travel with an agent, the program team allows each artist to bring a life assistant to take care of the artist's daily life.

But this life assistant can not participate in the filming schedule, when the artist is filming the show, the life assistant can only wait for the artist in the hotel, they can take care of the artist at night, and they can help the artist carry bags and the like when traveling, but during the recording, the life assistant is strictly forbidden to be close to the artist, can not provide any help to the artist, and is not allowed to find trouble with the program team, so as not to affect the recording process.

All the travel expenses of this life assistant are from the program group and are included in the artist's itinerary.

At the meeting at the National Entertainment that afternoon, Xiaoni's team asked Lin Zaishan to quickly set a life assistant to come out, and next week they will submit the information of the life assistant to the program team of Haixing Channel, and the program team will help the artist and the life assistant set the final overseas itinerary.

Li Xiaoni's life assistant has long been decided, that is, Sun Li, the female assistant who has been following her to the north and south, with Sun Li by her side to take care of her, Li Xiaoni's life will be much easier.

Lin Zaishan suddenly heard that he was going to take a life assistant out to record, and he really didn't think about who to take for a while.

If this show was recorded in the summer, then he would take the white dove to overseas play, and it would be a trip around the world.

It's a pity that the time of the recording coincides with the time when Bai Ge went to school, and he can't take a college student like Bai Pigeon out.

As for Liu Mengmeng, he has to prepare for the second season of "Singer-Songwriter", which will be pre-selected in July, and he can't go overseas to record with him.

In fact, with such an overseas video, it will be more convenient for Lin Zaishan to bring a male assistant by his side. Any heavy work can be done by the male assistant, and he can recharge his energy and compete with all his might.

In the beyond company, there is a male employee who is very familiar with Lin Zaishan, and he is a younger brother recognized by Lu Chen - Cheng Xiaolong.

This kid is 25 years old, has a bit of a social background, and is very quick in doing things, and he can generally handle the things that the company gives him.

For example, Ma Yuantian and their band came to the beyond company to make trouble, and in the end, Lu Chentong guΓ² Cheng Xiaolong found a brother in the society to get it.

This kid has always admired Lin Zaishan, who was like a myth to them when he was young.

When he heard Lu Chen say that Lin Zaishan wanted to get a record company, Cheng Xiaolong immediately asked Lu Chen to come to Beyond to help, and to follow Lin Zaishan to do things.

When Beyond was first established, Lu Chen introduced Cheng Xiaolong to Lin Zaishan to get to know him.

Cheng Xiaolong has always regarded Lin Zaishan as the eldest brother on the head of his eldest brother (Lu Chen), and he has special respect for Lin Zaishan.

Lin Zaishan doesn't do this now, what's the big brother who isn't the big brother? He was most troubled by these things.

When he was young, he actually didn't do this, he always fought alone, and he would compete with whoever was not pleasing to the eye. Is it a big deal to fight? Fist has better to win or lose.

Like those club members, Lin Zaishan was never scared when he was young, one fought hard, and a group fought hard! Anyway, in the fight, he has never suffered a loss, so he is regarded as a mythical figure by his brothers on the road.

For example, Cheng Xiaolong and other small characters are not good for Lin Zaishan, they all grew up listening to Lin Zaishan's mythology and mixed the rivers and lakes.

Lin Zaishan didn't regard Cheng Xiaolong as a member of the community, because this kid was indeed not a formal member of the club, but he was very righteous and had a lot of club friends.

has been in contact with Cheng Xiaolong for a while, Lin Zaishan feels that this kid is indeed quite reliable, and he will be the first to rush up if anything happens. After all, he is the younger brother who has been with Lu Chen for ten years, and Lin Zaishan is still more at ease with Cheng Xiaolong.

It stands to reason that he will go overseas to shoot in the future, and it is most suitable to take Cheng Xiaolong there. Overseas people are not familiar with each other, if something really happens, he and Cheng Xiaolong can take care of each other.

But the problem is that he is going out to shoot with Li Xiaoni this time, his relationship with Li Xiaoni is too special, they have been filming together overseas for so long, and in private, if they don't keep it, they will expose their relationship in front of their life assistant, after all, they all live together. If you want to take Cheng Xiaolong, this is more dangerous.

In order to prevent the relationship from being exposed, it is actually more dangerous for him to take anyone out.

And at present, the only one who knows that he has a lover is Sun Yuzhen
