Chapter 146: Two Contracts

At this time, the contracted singers under Huayi Brothers are honest...... Not much, indeed!

Compared with the achievements in film and television, Li Bingbing, Fan Bingbing and many other pillars, the talents in music are ...... It's too little!

At this time, although the Huayi brothers are among the leading bosses in China in terms of film and television, they are ...... in music

I have to say, it's still very immature.

In 1999, when Huayi Brothers Music Company was established, the company did not want to enter the music scene in a big way, but just wanted to test the water, but what it didn't expect was that the first artist group Yuquan signed would become popular all over the country in just a few years, earning full wealth for Huayi Brothers.

Since then, Huayi Brothers finally decided to officially set foot in the Chinese music scene!

After that, Huayi Brothers' achievements in music are not many, only three or four years ago, a singer who turned from behind the scenes to under the flash, Huang Zheng, has achieved good results, in addition......

I really didn't achieve anything too good!

In the future, the Huayi brothers may have some important artists in the Chinese music scene, but now, at the end of 2004, there are only two famous singers, Yuquan and Huang Zheng.

In addition, I am afraid that it is not long after their debut, and there is only one album at present, Menjie and Yang Kun, which are the two newcomers that the company is preparing to cultivate next.

And Menjie, obviously, whether in terms of popularity, age, talent or strength, is not inferior to Yang Kun, who was originally prepared to be vigorously cultivated, and even surpassed.

"Sister Mei, you tell me something, you ask me so, is it ...... What new ideas does the company have? ”

I really can't figure out the crux of Mei Mei's problem. Menjie did not hesitate to show his ignorance. asked softly.

"It's true that the company has some new ideas and would like to ask for your opinion!"

Nodding slightly, since he was ready to start persuading Menjie, he naturally had to tell everything about the matter.

"The idea at the top of the company is that you want to focus your future career. Lean towards music production, treat movies and TV series as your side hustle, and devote most of your time and energy to your music career! ”

"This ......"

Hear the words. Menjie was slightly stunned, but the next moment, he also understood.

In terms of TV series. Although Menjie has a work, he has never made it again after joining Huayi Brothers. Obviously, there is no idea of vigorously developing TV dramas at all.

Cinematic. Although the development is good, not long ago, there was news that Men Jie offended Fang Jackie Chan, and only Men Jie knew about to appear in Fang Jackie Chan's movie, even Zhao Dong didn't know, and the company naturally didn't know about it.

At this time, the company may have offended Fang Chenglong by people, and under Fang Chenglong's revenge. In the future, the development of film will not be too big.

In addition, Menjie is recording a new album recently, which has been highly praised by Li Tong and others. The company finally decided that it wanted Menjie to vigorously develop music and give up the film and television industry.

That's right!

Thinking of this, Menjie's eyes lit up suddenly, as if he had thought of something, "In that case, why don't I take advantage of this opportunity to make a good profit?!" ”

Thinking in his heart, Menjie's heart couldn't help but pound, as if he had some big idea, but in order not to make Mei Mei suspicious, he forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart and wrote lightly.

"Sister Mei, to be honest, I do have this kind of thought, and the film and television industry is ...... Oh, don't talk about it! All in all, I really want to develop music vigorously and become a top singer as soon as possible! ”

Speaking of this, Mei Mei's face couldn't help but show a touch of joy, and she had more confidence in her heart for the next words.

"But...... Sister Mei, I remember that I signed a contract with Huayi Brothers at the end of last year, and it has been a year now, right? ”

Seeing Mei Mei nodded, Menjie continued, "It's the end of October, and in February this year, I released an album, and the new album I record now will not be released until the beginning of next year, if it's the third album...... I guess it was released in early 2006, right? ”

As he spoke, a strange smile appeared on Menjie's face, "At that time, I remember that my contract with Huayi Brothers seemed to have expired, and when I signed the contract, Sister Mei, I signed a two-year contract!" ”

"That's true!"

Mei Mei nodded slightly, and said undeniably, "If your third album was released in early 2006, your contract with the company has indeed expired!" ”

"But ......"

Immediately afterwards, Mei Mei's face showed a confident look, "It's nothing if the contract expires, after all, it can be renewed!" ”

"Renewal?" Menjie grinned, didn't say anything, looked at Mei Mei with a smile, waiting for Mei Mei to show the hole cards she brought today!

Although Menjie has just debuted, it is ...... in terms of value

It's already obvious!

At the time of signing, in addition to Huayi Brothers, there was another company, but the other company was a step behind Huayi Brothers in terms of strength, and they also wanted to praise their company's new singer Shabao Liang, so they gave up Menjie.

But it's a pity that among these two choices, the other party is obviously looking away!

Not to mention the rest, just comparing the sales of Sandbag Liang and Menjie's new albums, they completely defeated Menjie, and then when they competed for the Best Newcomer award, they also lost Menjie, which is enough to explain some news.

Menjie's strength and potential can be said to be very rebellious among newcomers!

Although it seems that Menjie and Huayi Brothers have just signed a contract, in fact, there is only one year left before the contract is terminated!

If the Huayi brothers don't take action, it won't take long for Menjie's next album to achieve unexpectedly good results, and it can be predicted that there will inevitably be many companies competing with Huayi Brothers for Menjie's potential singer!

At that time, it will be even more difficult to sign Menjie again, which is what the Huayi brothers do not want to see.

So now, the Huayi brothers must hurry up, and today, it is obvious that they have given an order to Mei Mei, bringing enough benefits to make Menjie happy, and found Menjie!

"The company has decided to provide you with two contracts, and these two contracts ...... You can see for yourself! ”

Without the slightest hesitation, Mei Mei took out two contracts from the handbag beside her and handed them to Menjie, who nodded slightly and read them in detail.

Comparison is related to his own vital interests, and it is impossible for Menjie not to care!

With a slight glance, Menjie noticed the difference between the two contracts!

The benefits represented by these two contracts are actually very different, and the precondition is the sales of Menjie's next albums!

If you want to get the worse of the two contracts, the premise is that Menjie's next album will sell between 1 million and 1.5 million, and the second contract with better treatment will require Menjie's next album to sell more than 1.5 million!

The second contract is better, although the first contract is a little worse than the latter, but it is better than the contract between Menjie and the Huayi brothers at this time......

But it's stronger, I don't know how much it is!

At this time, although the contract between Menjie and Huayi Brothers is stronger than that of ordinary newcomers, in some details, it is still a pure newcomer contract!

If you don't say anything else, let's talk about endorsements!

Usually newcomers, the endorsements they can receive can be said to be very, very few, after all, they are not yet famous, and it is impossible for someone to take the initiative to come to you as an endorsement.

Even if there is an endorsement, it is usually the spokesperson who the company contacts and contacts for you.

In this case, the contract signed between Menjie and the company can only share 40% of the remuneration!

Generally speaking, some first-line stars and top stars who have become famous, not to mention anything else, at least in terms of endorsement fees, the company usually does not charge a penny, all of which are the income of the star artists themselves.

After all, by that time, you have already become famous, and in terms of endorsements, it is generally the endorsers who take the initiative to come to the door, rather than the company contact, which does not play any role, and the company will naturally not participate in the sharing again.

And Menjie's endorsement before ......

I have to say that there are too few self-reliant newcomers like Menjie!

And now in front of Menjie, there is the same point, that is, in the contract, after Menjie renews the contract, there will be endorsements in the future, then Menjie himself will get 100% of the income, and the company will not take away even a penny!

Of course, paying taxes doesn't count!

In addition, some of the newcomer contracts on Menjie's original contract have disappeared in these two contracts, although there is still a slight gap in terms of advantages and disadvantages, but this gap is only the sharing of benefits, the enjoyment of company resources, the number of years of contract, etc.

Menjie doesn't need to pay attention to the trivial things, what he really needs to pay attention to is the core and most important rights and interests!

Although the two contracts add up to more than ten or twenty pages of A4 paper, full of dense small print, it seems more difficult, but the content inside, except for the core treatment, is the same, there is no difference, and Menjie looks very relaxed.

After letting the Tianwang system test the differences, advantages and disadvantages of parts other than the core treatment, Menjie didn't think much about it anymore and concentrated on the core treatment.

After a short time, Menjie finally finished reading it, memorized it in his chest, closed his eyes and thought for a while, then he breathed a sigh of relief and had an idea in his heart.

It's not just to cater to a better contract, but to use the hole cards in your hand to earn greater benefits! (To be continued.) )
