Chapter 53 The Great Scales Divide the Gold
Song Yacai is not afraid, this is a private school with a very strict learning style, and he is in an advanced class in mathematics, and those who can come must be children with good grades, if Breed dares to do it first, he will not come here.
The teachers here are also much better than the previous school, and they can at least manage classroom discipline regardless of their level.
After class, he walked up to Breed, who had been glaring at him for a class, and stabbed him with his hand, "Hey, just kidding, don't take it to heart." "This guy is a paper tiger, he only sits there and kills people with his eyes, and he doesn't dare to stand up at all!
"They're all good students, it seems that I can be considered a thorn in the head here."
Song Ya sneered secretly, and pretended to pass by Bred's little attendant's desk inadvertently, scooped it up, and called all the books on his desk to the ground, officially establishing his class dominance.
The school also has a much richer club activities than the previous one, in addition to arts and sports, there are also various scientific, cultural and social clubs. However, Song Ya still chose the orchestra, after all, according to his musical achievements, the teacher will definitely give high marks when he lies down and plays.
As for sports, he found that the school actually has a squash court, and the advantage of this sport is that he can play alone, which is just right for his personality who likes to be alone. Forget about table tennis, although the school has a small table tennis club, but the members are only a few weak girls, and they can't stop any smash, and they are boring.
After two weeks of peaceful school life, the accountant Song Asheng called, it was time to go to SBK to divide the money!
During this time, Song Ya has been spending money, buying a car, renting a new house, paying the living expenses of a family of four, Emily's tuition fees, and spending money on Mira. After receiving the notice, he immediately sent Song Asheng to New York.
Over the weekend, he flew to New York and came to the familiar SBK headquarters.
Downstairs, he saw Tony, 'Silencer', AK, and Lori Jr. who were hiding in the corner and smoking.

A few people bumped fists and greeted each other, with a clichΓ© greeting, "Go inside, I'll be waiting for you inside, Daniel's office." AK let him into the building.
Walking into Daniel's office, there were only three of them: Little Lowry, Pablo, and Old Joe.
"Hey, APLUS! Come here, come here! β
Old Joe excitedly pulled him to his side and sat down, "Today is a good day for the harvest, boy. β
Little Lori was still dragging to the ground and half-lying down, and Song Ya stretched out her fist and touched him.
"APLUS, WAIT A MINUTE, YOU HAVE TO SUPPORT US, SINCE DANIEL HAS CANCELED THE RELEASE OF THE REMIXED VERSION OF THE SECOND-HAND STORE DANCE MUSIC, THEN WE HAVE TO FORCE HIM TO DO A GOOD JOB OF PROMOTING THE RERELEASE OF THE LOWRY II ALBUM IN THE FUTURE......"
Pablo said: "SBK has officially launched Vanilla Ice's album 'To the Extreme', and I'm afraid that they will give up on us in order not to let others fight, and if it drags on any longer, Lowry and Joe's previous accumulated popularity will gradually lose out." β
Song Ya knows this, Pablo has talked to him on the phone several times in the past two weeks, vanilla ice is SBK's own son, it is unrealistic to change the pace of his album promotion, and accelerating the pre-promotion of Lowry II's album will inevitably cause the two albums to fight at the same time, SBK can't agree, Pablo is a little too whimsical.
"I can't influence Daniel, and the power of life and death for my song 'To Deklerk' is still in the hands of SBK, don't count on me. Of course, I'm not going to help Daniel deal with you, so you'll be without me. He spread out his hands and signaled that the two would not help each other.
"That song of yours is very good, Hua Q ~ Hua Q ~ Haha, you must know that most of the swear words of black rap are modal words, and there are not many people who are as bold as you to mention such an important position." Old Joe chatted happily, he can make a lot of money when the album is a big hit, but at the moment he is most concerned about the second-hand store single, after all, Daniel lifted him to an equal level with little Lori in this single, so he would not break up with Daniel rashly.
Song Ya heard that he had recently had friction with Pablo and Lori Jr., and the last bit of love between the two sides was gone, and all that was left was business, and the general context of the matter was this:
During the months-long publicity trip, because of Lao Qiao's physical strength, he had to reduce a lot of 'acupuncture' sessions, and Xiao Lowry's income was affected.
And in order to solve his physical problems, Old Joe brought up the old thing again, and wanted to recruit the worse old Morgan back as a shield, and participated in the second-hand store studio version not long before the recording, Pablo and Little Lowry of course refused to do it, so the contradiction between the two sides intensified even more.
Later, the studio version was not recognized by the market, and Old Joe complained that it was the lack of taste for Saxophone without the participation of Old Morgan, and the lack of progress in Lowry Jr.'s RAP performance, which led to Waterloo, and Little Lowry naturally refused to admit it, and the two sides quarreled again.
During the quarrel, Little Lowry accidentally shook out the truth, saying that he would not choose Old Joe Music next time he renewed his contract, but would switch to a big record company.
He signed a five-year contract with Lao Qiao, and the first album Lao Qiao Music must complete the production and release, and the second album will be released according to the results of the first album. Lao Qiao has cultivated him for two years, and the first college has been issued for almost half a year, because the results of the first college will definitely meet the conditions set in the contract, there are about two years left in the contract period, and Lao Qiao has to send him another one.
But if Little Lowry doesn't plan to renew his contract, it is conceivable what the quality of the second album produced by Old Joe Music will be.
Pablo simply didn't do anything, since Lowry Jr.'s gaffe made Old Joe on guard, he wanted to find a big record company to buy out the remaining two years of Lori Jr.'s contract, and the second album is not in your place, let's split up and live separately.
Old Joe said that if you want to leave, you can take the money!
At present, the two sides are in a stage where the price cannot be negotiated.
This kind of has nothing to do with Song Ya, a songwriter, he made up his mind before he came, you guys are arguing with you, it's my. And he clearly remembers that Daniel's evaluation of the album was rubbish, and it was completely impossible for SBK to spend a lot of energy on it, and Pablo and Lowry Jr. were destined to fail.
Of course, the three parties have a common interest in forcing SBK to settle its accounts as soon as possible, and as soon as Daniel enters the door, they tacitly assume a common front.
Secretary Daniel placed several thick papers in front of the trio.
Song Asheng, Xiao Luorui, Lao Qiao, and SBK's financial staff came in one after another and filled the sofa.
Song Ya roughly flipped through it, this is SBK's settlement document on the sales of 1.5 million singles, due to different sales prices such as discounts, activities, publicity distributions, etc., the whole account is very complicated, in order to prevent SBK from 'stealing sales', there must be more in-depth audit work, and no professionals can play at all.
Song Ya can get nearly 10% of the sales revenue of singles, 1.5 million sales, and the average price of a single album is about more than 6 dollars, that is, about one million dollars. Of course, the specific calculation method is not so simple, in fact, it cannot reach this number, and the specific amount on the document is more than 930,000 dollars, with zero and round.
"Boss Nong, don't worry, it's all right." Song Asheng whispered to Song Ya.
Song Ya looked at Xiao Luori and Lao Qiao, the two were already signing, so they also signed their names one by one.
At that time, he sold 5,000 dollars to Xiao Lori for 2% of the royalty, and now this money is worth nearly 200,000 dollars, which is only the settlement figure when 1.5 million are sold, and when the next 1.5 million is sold, it will be nearly 200,000 dollars.
Five thousand to four hundred thousand, Song Ya felt a little sour.
Daniel had already poured a few glasses of champagne and handed them to everyone personally, "It's a pleasure to work with." β
"Happy working together!"
Lao Qiao, as the producer, is the one who gets the most money today, Song Ya didn't see the specific amount, and estimated that there were always five million, so he took a sip, "I hope the next one and a half million shares will come as soon as possible." β
"Yes, it's not a big problem with the three platinums." Daniel relied on this business to bring a huge amount of revenue to SBK, and the publisher was able to share 30 percent, removing the first 1 million copies and secretly stuffing 3% to Song Ya, and then subtracting the publicity and distribution costs to make a big profit, "A very classic win-win, cheers for our successful cooperation!" He drank the wine from his glass.
"Cheers!" Everyone did it together, Pablo glanced at Old Joe and Song Ya, "Next, SBK's release of Lowry II's album ......"
"The propaganda is scheduled for December."
Daniel didn't mean to beat around the bush at all, "Our main focus for SBK over the next two months will be on Vanilla Ice's To the Extreme album. β
"But ......" Pablo didn't want to give up yet.
Song Ya put the wine glass back on the table, "Let's go." Directly led Song Asheng to say goodbye and leave.
