These things can't be moved yet, and Song Ya's high-rise apartment doesn't have a garage or anything like a place to fit them.

He asked Song to register a new company, A+ Records, and called Hayden back from New York for a small meeting at Goodman's before returning home together.

"Let's sign it." Hayden handed the document to Al.

Al signed the paperwork, "What is this?" He asked Song Ya.

"I want you to record a demo for me, which is a legal document to prevent disputes in the future." Song Ya told the truth, "This doesn't mean that I don't believe you, just go through a process." ”

Al shrugged, "Okay. ”

Song Ya handed Al the simple score he had come out of the rush and asked him to go to the room to practice first.

"Wait until Delai's agent arrives."

He and Hayden were the only ones left in the living room, "I use a lot of electronic music for my new song, and I need Dielay." ”

"Isn't he willing to mess with you?" Hayden was a little curious, "Why did you get the agent involved so early?" ”

"The last time I recorded De Klerk, DeLay suggested that I do A+ Audio, but then I didn't bring him, so he was a little upset." Song Ya briefly introduced the conflict with Di Lai last time, "It's good, my brother will settle the account, so I don't have to have such a problem again, and you will help me reduce the price more later." ”

"No problem."

DeLay's agent arrived soon in the form of a wrinkled-faced, white old man, a native New Yorker, who represented a bunch of Daniel's signings and should have a good relationship with Daniel.

There was no friendship between the two sides, and he got straight to the point, "Mr. Song, my client, Delai, is willing to work with you in principle, so I just came to fight for his interests, hoping to have a good result." ”

It is rare, this is the lowest posture agent Song Ya has encountered since he crossed.

But when you really talk about it, you know that it is powerful, this old man must be compared, and then from time to time he goes out to call Dilai, back and forth, and he is stunned for several hours.

"No way, I won't promise him to form his own band and leave a name among the singers, you don't need to ask for such a sky-high price."

"You know, I don't have to be him in terms of accompaniment, Chicago is the birthplace of house electronic music, and there is no shortage of mercenaries here."

"Yes, I like his synthesized part, he's very thoughtful, and he's worked with me, and we worked well together."

"The producer is me, not anyone else."

"There is no share, he will not get any share from my first order or first commission."

"A+ Records won't give him any shares either."

"Of course, let's talk about compensation."

"No problem, I can make him the general manager of A+ Audio for the time being, but you have to remind him that the company is just one of his employees."

"No, it's not a partner, it's not 20 percent, it's 5 percent, and after two years of profitability, five years of profitability, he can get 15 percent of A+ Audio."

"Of course, he will have a salary, the exact amount ......"

Song Ya and Hayden took turns to fight, and finally negotiated an agreement, called Goodman, and signed the contract on the spot.

"Whew!"

Seeing Goodman and DeLay's agent away, Song Ya wiped her sweat, glanced at Hayden, and smiled helplessly.

"How many more musicians do you need? Maybe it is possible to take care of the client who takes care of me. Hayden took the opportunity to sell.

Song Ya refused, "As far as Delai and Al are concerned, most of my songs will use electronic music. ”

"So, your first song will be experimental?" Hayden asked.

"Technically, yes......"

Song Ya plans to involve DeLay as the general manager of A+ Audio, and to bring all the new synthesized music rights that Apocalypse has acquired into A+ Audio, and A+ Records will have to pay the same market price if they are used.

At this time, Al came out, and he used the guitar and the drum sound imitated by ventriloquism, which really had the charm of the original.

Song Ya was very satisfied, and after a little communication with him, he changed a few places, then took out the microphone and recorder, and directly started recording the demo.

"3,2,1......" Al counts down, the pick touches the strings, and the prelude sounds.

“Tell me what you really like……”

As soon as Song Ya's first lyrics came out, Al stopped playing and laughed.

"What's wrong?"

"You...... Ha ha...... Why would you want to imitate MJ? Hayden, who was listening from the sidelines, also smiled, "It's all over the world that has learned MJ this year, and think about it, when the single is released, what will the media say about you?" ”

"I said brother......" Al also said, "Why don't you just listen to MJ when you sing like that." ”

"Uh...... MJ, who had been chatting with Mira's agent for a long time that day, inspired me for this song, so I ...... I'm not going to change it, so I'll just record it. Song Ya casually made up nonsense to deal with the past, "Go on, stop laughing." ”

Three hours later, the caretaker knocked on the door and told him that he had been complained by the residents downstairs.

"Forget it, don't record it, just take this version."

Song Ya sighed and handed the cassette into Hayden's hand.

Hayden pondered his words for a long time before he spoke, "I guess this demo will not help you talk about the new conditions......

"I see, if you can't do it, Columbia, if Daniel and Atlantic Records insist on a year." Song Ya knew that Hayden was not very optimistic about this song that was too 'MJ'.

"Okay." Hayden reminded: "If you really want to choose Columbia, you have to go to New York and talk to Daniel in person, we can't offend him, and you can count on SBK for the follow-up income of your two songs." ”

"I know, by the way, I still have to rent a room that can be used as a recording studio, it has to be close to the school, I have been missing too many classes lately."

"It's a bit of a trick, noise problem...... I'll try my best. Hayden left.

"...... near the school," Al stopped when he heard their conversation.

"How?"

"Do you know Big A?"

"Yes, well-known DJ, I saw him last time at Lori's party."

"Big A's radio station is not far west of your school, and I listened to his program last night, and he said that he wanted to sublet out some of the empty rooms on the radio station."

"Oh?" Song Ya knows that Big A's radio station is active in the early hours of the morning, and the number of listeners is not much, and the content of the program is nonsense and yellow accents in addition to playing songs, and Big A's reputation mainly comes from his being a guest on various big radio stations during the day. "Forget it, his kind of person ......" he recalled the appearance of Big A holding a leaf in Little Lowry's house, "I will be unlucky if I rent it with him, he hides a poison and a gun or something, and the security in the west area is not good." ”

Al smiled, "No, Big A, this person is a very chicken thief, he has been in the west of the city for more than ten years, and he has never had an accident, all his career is in that radio station, and he will only be more careful than you." And he's half of his own. ”

"Half of your own?"

"Yes, he belongs to another small gang under GD (Gangster Gospel) and has a good relationship with the Bobcats of Hell."

"Al...... I just didn't want to have anything to do with the gang so I left Nancheng and left Old Joe Music. ”

"Well, you have the final say."
