The band members who encountered the shocking education were honest, rehearsing in Old Joe's music every day, and did not go anywhere.

Half a month later, Song Ya put her legs on the mixer, staring at the rehearsal, while comfortably nibbling on watermelon, white people can't give it, Lao Tzu buy it himself, one is quite expensive.

It's been half a month since he came back, and he has never felt so intimate in Chicago's South Side before, although the frequency of shootings in the news is much higher than usual, staying here is still more comfortable than staying in New York, where he encountered the first discrimination after crossing over, and he has to be careful about everything he does, and he feels just two words, tired! And let's be honest, New York's two policing districts aren't much better than here.

In addition to supervising rehearsals, he and Eric have learned the tuning technique almost, and these days he has also exchanged a lot of synthesizer knowledge with DeLay, two Apocalypse songs, there is always a distance between the quality of the finished product and the accompaniment of the original song, he summed up the problem is in the audio synthesis, the synthesizer in the current era lacks a lot of synthesized sounds in the original accompaniment, DeLay is helping him to solve this problem.

"Flower Q~Flower Q~"

Mila sang through the glass and bit her lip at herself, she was in the middle of eating the marrow, and when she found an opportunity, she begged for pleasure, and Old Joe's office was almost a couple room for two, and she hardly went back to the hotel, and Mrs. Jovovich had reluctantly given up her control.

"Hua Q ......" Song Ya made a lip gesture towards her, and immediately saw the emotion in those beautiful eyes.

"Ahem."

Hayden at the door walked in with a fake cough, "I introduced Ellie to an agent, he will arrange everything, and the two of you will not cross paths in the future." ”

Ellie...... Song Ya called her as early as New York to break up, she kept dialing pagers and entangled for a while and accepted the reality, she relied on Song Ya to show a few seconds of close-up in the second-hand store MV, as the MV became popular, there was really a talent scout who went to the school to find her, she asked Song Ya again, Song Ya could only hand over the matter to Hayden to arrange properly.

"Thank you." is already very benevolent and righteous, and Song Ya has no sense of guilt.

"The second-hand store was eleventh on the Billboard weekly list in the first week, seventh in the second week, a drop in the third week, and the ninth ......"

Hayden came to get down to business, "If nothing else, single sales will also start to decline slowly, SBK has made up a round of goods, according to their calculations, the actual sales have exceeded one million copies, and the specific number has not yet come out." ”

"It seems that we made the right decision to choose SBK." Song Ya has been thinking about this part of income for a long time.

"Yay." Hayden is also very excited, with the rise of Song Ya, his income and status in William Morris have also skyrocketed, "In addition to this part of the income, the money from BMI will also be called regularly in the future, plus your second song is about to come out, you have to be careful financially, you have to find an accountant to help quickly." ”

All for-profit radio stations, shopping malls, bars, restaurants and other occasions, BMI will regularly play the songs of its members, and then charge according to the number of times, the cost of one time is very, very low, but the collection of water is considerable, as long as there is a copyright, this money will be collected non-stop. In addition, if the song is used in a movie soundtrack or something like that, a lot of royalties can be negotiated, and Song Ya can still get a share of the money.

"Accountant?" Song Ya touched his chin.

"We at William Morris have partnerships with a lot of reputable accounting firms, and here in Chicago ......," Hayden started Amway.

"emmmm......" Song Ya didn't plan to use Hayden's close relationship, he didn't want to be deceived by the combination of agents and accountants in the future, "They are expensive, right?" ”

"Of course, but the fee is proportional to the service." Hayden replied.

"Let me think about it again, how is the school going? I just want to move out of Nancheng as soon as possible......" Song Ya changed the subject.

"It's still early to start school, and according to your future income, you can increase your budget appropriately, so it's better to consider private middle schools, so that the selection will be much faster." Every time he talked about school, Hayden was full of bags, and it was really difficult to find according to Song Ya's budget and requirements before.

"Okay......" Song Ya reported another number.

Hayden leaves, and Songya finds time to find Goodman.

After not seeing each other for a while, Goodman's law firm also expanded, and he subleased the house opposite his old office, which was much more spacious and had a clerk's aunt.

"Accountant?" Goodman thought for a moment, "If the big firms are expensive, there are many small firms in Chicago, some even have only one accountant, and their main clients are the old money class, all of whom have worked together from family tradition for generations, and their history and reputation are actually no worse than those big firms." However, there is a mixture of fish and dragons, and there is a possibility of being deceived, while large firms have no such doubts. ”

"Do you have an introduction?" Song Ya asked him.

"By the way, you have Chinese ancestry, right!?" Goodman suddenly had an idea, "Chinese people are good at math, and many people do this business, and their reputation is much better than that of other ethnic groups." Moreover, they are more silent, and their social relations are not as complicated as those of the Jews...... However, there are also shortcomings, many of the people in this industry in Chinatown are involved in Chinese gangs, and the concept of financial management is sometimes conservative, and sometimes the gambling is particularly large. ”

Song Ya was moved, and with Goodman's help, he interviewed some Chinese accountants, and selected a family surnamed Song, Song Asheng, in his fifties, no bad records, has served a local Chinese family for a long time, has an excellent reputation, and is still a native of Ningbo, and can communicate with Song Ya in Mandarin.

Not long after negotiating the contract with Song Asheng, Song Ya and Daniel's gambling income arrived.

Because vinyl records and CDs are more expensive than cassettes, three percent of the sales of the first one million singles brought Song Ya about 200,000 dollars in income, and after deducting 10% of Hayden's and Song Asheng's remuneration, it was exactly 180,000 dollars.

"Next, I have to urge them more for my first royalty share of 10% on SBK's side." Everything is done, Song Yamei commanded with a sigh of relief.

"I know, boss Nong."

Song Asheng was emaciated, with a pair of rare monocles in one eyeframe, and he put away the documents, "What else do you have to order, boss." ”

Song Ya was called very comfortably by the boss with a Ningbo accent, "A friend suggested that I register an audio company, the main purpose is to manage some audio copyrights of my inventions, what do you suggest?" ”

This advice was given by DeLay, who saw Song Ya trying to develop a new synthesizer audio, and said that he must get the rights first.

"It's better to register a company of this nature in Delaware, and it's good in all aspects ......of taxation and legal affairs," Song advised.

Song Ya chose to trust the professional, "Okay, you look at it, registration should be done as soon as possible, I am a minor, and if there are any documents that need the authorization of the guardian, you should also prepare and hand them over to me first." ”

"What about the name of the company?" Song Asheng asked.

"Hmm......" Song Ya thought about it, "just use my nickname APLUS, A+ Audio, what do you think?" ”

"Pretty good, pretty good, pretty good name." Song Asheng nodded frequently.
