Well, this is really barely a reason. Although it seems that it can't be put on the table.

But who are the people in the cultural sector? Those are all people who have been crawling in the system for many years. Naturally, I will not believe this set of statements. What's more, Chen Chufan is good friends with Ye Feng, and the news that he once had a big fight with Shi Shao is no secret in this group of people. Therefore, everyone knows why Chen Chufan was banned.

Coupled with the difference between factions in the officialdom, disagreements and even arguments arise, and it is a smooth thing. And it is said that the wife and daughter of the vice minister who are in favor of approval by the Ministry of Culture are all fans of Chen Chufan. It seems that the power of the wind in the ears is also not to be underestimated.

In this way, Chen Chufan's concert application for approval work has been dragged on. There is no way, three meetings in a row to discuss this matter, it can be said that the Ministry of Culture has already attached great importance to this matter. However, the final result of the three meetings was unpleasant, so the matter dragged on.

What's even more is that when the minister comes back from an overseas inspection, he doesn't say a word about the nonsense of the subordinate departments. is such a big thing, and no one is willing to take the initiative to mention it to touch the moldy head of the big guy, so the approval of Chen Chufan's concert is stuck in the cultural department, and there is no response for a long time. In short, it was neither allowed nor directly vetoed, so it was hung there, and it was more than three months to dry, and Chen Chufan's fourth album began to be sold simultaneously around the world, and there was no signal for this concert.

As for Chen Chufan, he had almost forgotten about this matter a long time ago. He is very busy, not only preparing his new album, shooting endorsement commercials according to the contract, but also taking a look at the island he is building from time to time, and worrying about how to talk to Tom. Jackson had a showdown, and he was ready to retire from the music scene altogether.

Yes, with his contract with Universal coming to an end, Tom. Jackson's phone calls to him have also increased in frequency, from once a month in the first three months. Up to now, it has been basically a phone call in the second day, urging him to talk about renewing the contract, which makes Chen Chufan feel that he can no longer delay it. After all, he only has two months left on his contract, and he really should talk to Tom. Jackson made it clear, otherwise Chen Chufan would have felt that he was not kind.

After all, Tom. Jackson was still good to him. At least when he was competing with the Grammys for the limelight, others bet all their fortune and future on him, and stood on his side without hesitation.

So Chen Chufan finally decided to take the initiative to talk to Tom the day after his fourth new album was officially released. Jackson showdown. The reason for choosing this time is also very simple, after each new album is released, it is Chen Chufan's most idle time, and Universal Music has become accustomed to Chen Chufan's rest time after the album is released. Because they never need to think about what publicity activities are arranged specifically for Chen Chufan for the new album, anyway, Chen Chufan's records have never been worried about poor sales.

Tom. Jackson apparently also attached great importance to Chen Chufan's active visit, and rushed to his office early in the morning in anticipation. When Chen Chufan arrived at Tom on time at nine o'clock. At Jackson's office, the global executive had been waiting for him for half an hour.

"Oh, Chen, you're finally here, I've been waiting for you for a long time! What do you want to drink? Coffee or tea? "As soon as Chen Chufan entered the door, Tom. Jackson stood up and asked earnestly. From time to time, his head still looked at the door. After a while, it seemed that it was confirmed that Chen Chufan was the only one today, and he couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "You are alone?" Didn't Mrs. Chen come? ”

"I'll just drink a glass of boiled water, Mrs. Chen has other things. And in fact, there is no need for Mrs. Chen to come today! Chen Chufan smiled and sat down generously with Tom. Across from Jackson's desk.

Chen Chufan's first sentence made Tom. Jackson's mind was clouded. Didn't Chen Chufan come today to renew his contract with Universal? How could it be that his agent would not be present otherwise?

But after all, it's a senior executive of Universal Music. Although I was uneasy, I didn't show anything. personally poured a glass of water for Chen Chufan, and took advantage of the pouring of water to calm down the uneasiness in his heart, and then sat opposite Chen Chufan with a solemn face.

"Chen. You Chinese have a saying called straight to the point, and I won't go around in circles with you today. We all know that your contract is just over a month away. So I think it's time for us to revisit the contract thing. We've known each other for so long, and to be honest, I've always looked at my friends, so I might as well tell you that as long as you're willing to renew the contract, we'll discuss any conditions! "Tom, who already knows Chen Chufan's personality well. Jackson, the first sentence played the emotional card.

"Mr. Jackson, I have come today mainly to discuss the contract with you. In fact, you have helped me a lot in the past two years, and I don't have any other requirements for the contract itself, so there is no problem in continuing to sign with Universal! ”

Chen Chufan paused when he said this, and seemed to be hesitating about how to continue to speak. Jackson couldn't hold back excitedly: "That's great, in fact, I have already prepared a new contract for you, to tell you that it is basically based on your last contract, but it is a little more generous than your last contract in terms of record sales dividends, and it is a ten-year long contract, since you have such a plan, why don't you take a look at it first?" ”

With all said and done, Tom. Jackson picked up a document that had been placed on his desk and handed it over.

Chen Chufan was stunned, obviously for Tom. Jackson's urgency was underestimated. He really didn't expect Tom. Jackson turned out to have a new contract ready, just waiting for him to sign it.

So it took him a long time to take over Tom. Jackson handed over the papers, but instead of opening them, he put them back in Tom. On Jackson's desk, he smiled wryly and said, "Well, Mr. Jackson, I think you may have misunderstood. I'm not done yet, and it's actually not a big problem to sign with Universal, but I may not be able to continue with my previous artist contract. But I can sign a full-time composing contract with Universal Music, what do you think? As far as I know, Universal Music is in need of this kind of dedicated composer! ”

"Composition contract?" This time it's Tom's turn. Jackson was stunned, and then asked hesitantly, "Did I hear me right?" You just said you were going to sign a composition contract? (To be continued......)
