Chapter 9: Gold Medal Joining
Seeing that Ken Carlyle didn't believe Li Jingming knew that he had to come up with some fierce information at this time, so he began to analyze him, "Warner may not be very clear about Ling Yuan's album Jihua, recently our Apple online store has done business with many entertainment companies, mainly in the film industry, and it is understandable that you don't know, but Warner and we have put forward additional regulations." ”
"This regulation is the way they are going to test the waters for album release on our platform. I'm not a pure shareholder, I'm in charge of Apple's online platforms including ITunes, ITunesStore, and AppleTV, and I've negotiated the general guidelines of these things with those companies, and even those agreements are signed in my own name. ”
"There are many great gods in Warner, most of them are combinations, and even Lincoln Park has signs of becoming a god on Green Day. Among the solo singers, female singers don't talk about Madonna, who has become a god, and Enya, who is an old qualification, and there are only a few activities now. Now that Jewel has been mixing with Warner for a few years and has Green Day as her backer, it is impossible for the company to agree to the release of her album on the online platform, Laura Puccini is in the limelight with the new Grammy Award she won, and her new album is said to be an ambitious work carefully crafted by Warners, and it is even more unlikely that she will condescend to agree to the online release. Then we can clearly conclude that Warner is going to bring in new people. ”
"This newcomer now appears to be your daughter, Miss Kobby Carly. Don't be surprised, for people of our level, there are very few secrets to speak of with each other. Li Jingming is just pretending to be profound, he does have a little success in the United States, but the so-called "one level" with Warner is still more than a dozen streets.
But Ken Carlyle obviously believed Li Jingming's words, he actually knew a little bit about Kobi's album Jihua, and he knew that the idiots in the company were really going to test the waters with his little Koby, but he couldn't show his mouth, and asked, "So what?" ”
"The stake is great, if Miss Kobi debuts on our ITunes platform, how much can she sell if she succeeds, 50,000 or 100,000? Will online sales be recorded in her album releases? Warner clearly wants to use your daughter as a stone to ask for directions, no matter what the outcome is, they are still Warner, one of the world's four largest records (EMI has not been acquired by Universal in 2007, so it is the big four), but your daughter will not have a second musical journey. You and your daughter have been ruthlessly taken advantage of. As the general manager, of course, I know the Jihua of each partner, and Warner is not the only one who is ready to release albums on our platform, although online music has risen now, the market is still small, and it is purely for young people. Although your daughter is excellent in strength and talent, I am still worried about it. I love her singing and follow her blog, and I've even divulged company secrets to you for her future. ”
These additional regulations and the like are all nonsense made up by Li Jingming, and these regulations do exist, but they were signed as early as 2002, and Li Jingming recognized that Carlyle could not get the information of this kind of confidential regulations and deliberately fooled him. However, he didn't lie about the details of the online release of Kobi Carlyle's new album, deceitful people are like this, three points true and seven points false, true and false, false and true, true and false when fake is true, true and false when it is false, true and false when it is false, and then people will be deceived by you (the number of words is also a kind of fraud, hehe). Li Jingming deceived very successfully this time (and so did I).
Li Jingming, this is actually something in the words, Warner has a long history, there are many gods in it, and it is natural that there are many factions, he is nothing more than a hint that Corby wants to enter Warner not only to make music, but also to compete with a group of peers for the company's resources, Ken Carlyle is an old qualification in Warner, but he is much more powerful than him, it doesn't matter if he fights for music and grades, but if you want to make a stumbling block between the same door, you can't prevent it, and after selling it to Warner, isn't it up to people to have the final say.
"What can you give me, no, what can you give Kobie?" Ken Carlyle was visibly shaken.
People who want to buy things will ask the price, but Li Jingming's face is not showing the joy in his heart: "It's not that I'm going to give Kobi anything, but your own Mr. Carlyle." Taking over this studio, everything here will be based on your will, I don't interfere with anything in terms of music, I just want to be famous and don't care about money, and honestly, like everyone else, I'm going to play movies on Hollywood Boulevard after all. Your resources and my money will make Ling Yuan the new god on this street, unless you don't have the confidence to build a second "Rumor" for your daughter. Although the physical distribution channel is a bit weak, in the promotion of virtual shijie, I don't believe that there is anyone else on the planet who can compete with me, a shareholder of Apple, Facebook and Google. "If you brag and don't pay taxes, Li Jingming can brag hard, and Americans just eat this.
The agitation method was especially effective for Americans who were very enthusiastic and susceptible to incitement, and Ken Carlyle immediately became enthusiastic. But blood is blood, this is his daughter's lifelong career, he can't be cautious, he needs to be sure that what he can get is more than what he pays, at least it must be flat.
"ITunes is my personal responsibility, and I have achieved Facebook's cooperation with Apple this year, as long as you and your daughter join my Guangguo Records, I will give you a week's promotion of Apple's online store page and Facebook homepage, and Google search terms can also help you think of a way." What Li Jingming can say in Apple and Facebook, he has no right in Google, so he can only think of a way.
Li Jingming's optimism about Corby Caryllet is not only really optimistic about the other party's development and future fame, but it is a last resort. This genius girl (a girl a year older than Li Jingming) has been synonymous with American blog mythology for the next few years, but after a big country singer who scolded her previous boyfriends and a fat girl from England were too dazzling, Cobby gradually faded in color. Now, Li Jingming is still optimistic about Kobi, who grew up in a musical family, is very talented, and has been trained by many seniors, I have to say that a good father is very important, or how to say that the beginning of haode is half the success, isn't birth the beginning of life. The most important thing is that Li Jingming knows that she has not signed with Warner, which will save a lot of trouble and a lot of money.
Cobbie Carlyle relied on her father's relationship to prepare to release the film through Warner's channels, but Warner was obviously not optimistic about her at first, otherwise she would not have arranged for her to release her debut album in such a casual way. Ken Carlyle is also an arrogant person, he hopes that his daughter can participate in the production of his father's debut, the producer is already an alternative honor for the music industry, but creation and production are two concepts, how could Warner's big-name producers agree to a girl in her early twenties to participate in Warner's record production, and the singer contract prepared for it is not very generous.
After the matter went yellow, Ken Carlyle smashed things at home directly after seeing the contract given by Warner, and he didn't agree with this or that, and Zuihou also used a garbage contract to fool himself. So Ken Carlyle no longer wants his daughter to sign with Warner immediately, in fact, that contract is already good, after all, no matter how talented Corby, she is just a newcomer who has not debuted. As soon as Warner saw that you were not ready to sign a contract, he had to wonder if the father and daughter had other plans, and the relationship had been dragging on the record and contract since the relationship was stale. Ken Carlyle, who thinks he is a hero of the Warner Dynasty, was naturally unhappy that he was swept away by several juniors, and the other party failed to show sincerity and he didn't have to stick it, he sold his life to Warner for half his life, but now he ended up in this field, squatting at home with a happy heart, at this time a friend found him and said that he would introduce him to a new way, and he came here to find Li Jingming.
"You don't have to join my studio, you can continue to use your Warnerry connections to help your daughter, you help us connect with Warners, and we can even pay to borrow their distribution channels. Miss Corby will get her own music studio and be the soul of the place, and she will have a chance to become a legend. ”
Ken Carlyle has made up his mind that as long as he doesn't sign a long-term contract, his daughter can find other developments, she is still very young, this is just an opportunity on her life path, this opportunity has been much more generous than Warner, generous enough to make him tempted, and he believes that with the help of his old knife, his daughter will succeed.
"If you sign a contract, what conditions can you give?" Now that Ken Carlyle has decided to let his daughter come over, it's natural to talk about treatment now.
Li Jingming knew that he had successfully recruited his first artist, but he did not show the joy in his heart: "I think although you are the father of Kobi, I think it is better to talk to Miss Kobi first, her wishes are more important than yours." ”
Li Jingming's trick is purely pretending, a typical performance of being cheap and obedient, in fact, he completely affirmed that Ken Carlyle had the decision-making power before he came to him directly, otherwise Kobby might have signed a contract with Warner. But this trick is very useful for Ken Carlyle, and it is more important for the other party to respect Corby-Carrey than to respect himself, after all, it is his daughter who will come to develop in the future, not himself.
"If I can make my decision, if I agree to skip the rookie contract, as long as you can sign a contract within five years, I will let Kobby agree." Ken Carlyle has put his bottom line out. It's hard to train an artist, so many companies have rookie contracts, and they're extremely demanding, unlike Corby, she was trained by Carlyle herself, and although she used a lot of Warner's resources, it was obvious that Ken Carlyle wouldn't be grateful to Warner.
"You are a good father, I will not let your kindness go to waste, 40% of the profits of the music career (albums, music commercials and concerts) in five years, I don't want to endorse anything, I will take all the peripherals."
"Isn't this too little, although it is extremely generous according to the rookie contract, but it is a little less as a formal contract, and Kobi has to be the producer." Ken Carlyle thought that the other party could give more, and he also had to contribute as Kobi's father, and it was about the same if he split the account fifty-fifty, and the other party did not give the price he wanted.
"Maybe you misunderstood something, the subject of the sentence just now was me, that is, the forty percent was given to me, so Miss Kobi will get sixty percent, which should not be less, right?" Li Jingming deliberately let Ken Carlyle ride a roller coaster, otherwise how could he accept Li Jingming's favor, "But you can see that the conditions I gave are so good, I just said that I am just trying to make a name for myself in this industry and will not spend too much energy on my own." You are an old-timer in the music industry, and I believe that you have a lot of connections, and if you can find some other staff members yourself, Miss Kobi will also have more prestige in the company as your daughter, right? ”
Li Jingming can say that he has nothing but money, and even online publicity channels don't cost him too much trouble, and he can build this music studio almost by one mouth.
"You're the most haode lobbyist on the planet, no wonder you have such wealth at such a young age." Ken Carlyle learned from a friend that he was a major shareholder of several companies, including Apple, Facebook and Google, and that he was a real rich man.
Li Jingming was very modest, "The most haode lobbyist on this planet is not me, but Mr. Franklin. He pulled out a hundred-dollar bill and spread it out in Ken Carlyle's hand, "He persuaded me with his charm before I asked you out to meet me." ”
The head of Franklin on the banknote was pursed and squinted, indifferent and disdainful.
