Looking at the strange expressions of Sun Peng and the others, John? Fix was embarrassed at this point.

But in the embarrassment, John? Fix is more of a helplessness, after all, Hardy? James is nominally a member of their department, but an artist...... As long as he doesn't make any serious mistakes, he really can't do anything about others! For example, in this situation, Hardy is reluctant to work with a pop music author, John? Fix couldn't think of anything other than expressing regret.

So in the face of Sun Peng's visit, he could only recommend another Louis? Mr. Toremmons.

"Humph!"

Of course, Liu Chang couldn't be satisfied with such an answer, and snorted coldly with a gloomy face. As Lao Bai's assistant, of course she must show her attitude - compared to the current Sun Peng, what is your violin player?

"Okay, no problem!"

However, to Liu Chang's surprise, Sun Peng shook his head calmly and said, "If this Mr. Toremmons is in the school now, can you let me meet him?" ”

Compared with Liu Chang, Sun Peng's thoughts are not so complicated.

Whether or not he cooperates with him, it is the freedom of Mr. James, and he certainly does not think that by virtue of his status, others must cooperate or anything. In the final analysis, this is a transactional cooperation, and Sun Peng paid someone to make a tune. Since the other party said that there is a suitable candidate, let's just take a look......

……

"It's fun, it's so fun!"

After reading the score that Sun Peng brought, Louis? Mr. Toremmons slapped his thigh hard and said excitedly, "Sir, I can't wait to play it!" ”

"Of course, that's what I'm here for!"

Nodding without hesitation, Sun Peng said with a smile.

"Hoo ......"

Seeing the two of them looking at each other and smiling, John next to him? Director Fix suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Although he is not afraid of offending Sun Peng, he always has to take into account the identity and huge influence of the other party, in case he is dissatisfied because of the failure of cooperation, and when the time comes, he casually says a few things like the Phelps School of Music is bad, or the orchestra department is bad, it will definitely have a big impact on the school.

If you can reach a cooperation, of course, the best result is the result.

Thinking of this John? Fix smiled and nodded, "Alright, Mr. Toremmons, do you need my help to find someone else to cooperate?" ”

"No, no, I can do it myself!"

Hurriedly waved his hand, Louie? Toremmons laughed: "Myself, plus Jones, Howard, Hardy...... Well, one more pianist is enough! ”

"Uh......"

After hearing the name Hardy, John? Fix's face darkened.

Which pot is not opened, which pot is mentioned!

However, this time, without waiting for the head of the department to speak, Sun Peng said with a smile: "Mr. Toremmons, don't be in a hurry about the performance, can we sign the contract first?" ”

"Contract? Of course. ”

After a moment's pause, Louie? Toremmons nodded immediately.

In a country that claims to have no way to survive without a lawyer, it is of course normal to sign a contract, and after seeing this score, Louie? Of course, Toremmons can also see the subtleties of it, and naturally understands the requirement of signing a contract first.

Merely......

After reading the content of the contract handed over by Liu Chang, Louie? Toremmons' brows suddenly furrowed: "Mr. Laobai, this ......"

"What's wrong? Sir, do you think the pay is too little? ”

The brows were also furrowed, and Liu Chang asked a little unhappily. was already angry because of Hardy's refusal, and she was even more unhappy at this time - you must know that it was just playing a tune, and Sun Peng offered the other party a high price of 250,000 US dollars, is it still low?

"No, no, there is no problem with the remuneration!"

Hurriedly shook his head, Louie? Toremmons smiled bitterly and said, "Madam, even if we don't charge a penny for this piece, we will definitely be willing to play it!" Merely...... You know, I'm a violinist, and this piece is so alluring to me! So can you change the restrictive clause in it? ”

"Oh? How to modify? ”

Hearing this, he was slightly stunned, and Liu Chang made a gesture to please speak.

Put down the sheet music in your hand, Louie? Toremmons smiled slightly: "It's very simple, we can play and record this piece for Mr. Laobai for free, but in return, I hope he will authorize us to use it - of course, we will give five percent of all the proceeds in return, how about it?" ”

"What?"

His eyes widened in surprise, and Liu Chang's eyes immediately drifted towards Sun Peng.

After seeing Liu Chang's stunned eyes, Sun Peng couldn't help but feel happy in his heart. When he asked the other party to write down the figure of $250,000 before he came, Liu Chang was adamantly opposed because she felt that the price was too high - even if it was to ask a symphony orchestra to record a piece, how much would it cost? All you need for this score is a piano and a string quartet for five people, and that's $50,000 each!

Even for the top performers, the price is high enough. How much does it cost to invite a whole symphony orchestra? Even if the other party is a professor at a world-renowned conservatory of music and is not famous, Liu Chang also feels that Sun Peng is too generous, so generous that he is almost throwing money.

But looking at the other party's reaction now, I obviously underestimated the charm of this song.

Withdrew his gaze from Liu Chang's face and looked at Louie? Toremmons' eyes Sun Peng smiled and said: "Of course you can modify the terms, I can even grant you the right to perform daily and publish records......

"Really?"

After hearing this, Toremmons' eyes suddenly lit up, like two forty-watt large light bulbs!

"Of course it's true, after all, I'm not interested in working on this piece myself."

Raising his eyebrows, Sun Peng chuckled and said: "But first of all, I must explain that your right to use is only for the publication of records and performances on various occasions, and absolutely does not include any other form of transfer of use rights, and the price of five percent is also impossible, I want fifty percent!" In addition to the daily teaching can be used for free, if you use it in the future to make records, participate in performances, etc., I will make 50% of all the proceeds! ”

Just kidding!

One of the most famous tango on the planet, used in countless films, and one of the stepping stones for tango to enter European and American high society, "One Step Away" is only worth five percent of the proceeds? Oh, by the way, maybe add that $250,000 in compensation...... But even so, it's a 100% loss-making business!

"Fifty percent?! And the right to use it can't be transferred? ”

When did you hear this, John? Fix's eyes puffed out as well. looked at Sun Peng who was smiling, and then looked at Toremmons, who had a flash of unwillingness in his eyes, he suddenly became a friend Hardy? James felt a hint of regret, because he vaguely knew that the guy really missed out on a good work......

Looking at Sun Peng's calm appearance, Louie? Mr. Toremmons knew that his idea of taking advantage was impossible.

But when he thought about it, he was relieved.

You must know that this person in front of you is not an ordinary composer, but a guy who has single-handedly picked up Luo Cheng and Chen Feifei, two Chinese superstars. Such a bargain, can you easily take advantage of it?

While Toremmons was relieved, Sun Peng also smiled secretly.

Who said that artists are immortals with ten fingers that do not touch the spring water? Maybe the Hardy who rejected him? James is a bit of a possibility, but look at the Mr. Toremmons in front of him, and what is the difference between him and those cunning businessmen? If you are not famous enough, and you also know the value of this song very well, maybe you really fall in love with the other party!

You must know that in terms of current film investment, just the right to use a movie, with Sun Peng's fame, may be millions of licensing fees!

Don't think it's impossible, there are many precedents to follow.

Sun Peng, the highest licensing fee for this world song, didn't know, but he had heard in his previous life that the licensing fee for a song in a movie was as high as more than four million US dollars......

After a moment, both laughed at the same time.

Louis? Toremmons smiled, shook his head and said, "Mr. Laobai, fifty percent is impossible, but as for the specific ratio, I think we can talk about it......"
