Chapter 23: Recording

Looking at Mo Ming, who was surprised in front of him, Lin Yun said speechlessly: "Who told you that our company is doing animation?" Our Mandarin Group is an entertainment company, mainly engaged in book publishing, record production, film and television production, artist management and so on. Lin Mingmei is the top artist under our company, otherwise, how could she record songs in our company. ”

Speaking of this, Lin Yun paused before continuing: "This cooperation with Director Li is due to my personal reasons, and you know the specifics. On the other hand, the animated film itself is within the scope of our company's business, but our usual role is that we are investors and do not participate in the production of the film itself. ”

"Also, don't look at our Wenhua Group, it can't be ranked among the many group companies in the empire. But in the imperial entertainment industry, our Wenhua Group is one of the top ten large enterprises. ”

"Speaking of which, you want to be a singer and develop in the entertainment industry, but you don't even know about our group, which is really enough."

Hearing this, he knew that this time it was indeed himself, and Mo Ming, who was a little lonely and unheard of in his predecessor, but didn't want to admit defeat easily, had to say stiffly: "When did I say that I wanted to be a singer and develop in the entertainment industry." ”

"Hehe, if you don't want to be a singer, why did you go to the Dimensional Bridge to be a music anchor? Why do you have to sing your dreams back? Just give me the song and count the money at home with peace of mind. ”

"I want to make more money, and I can't get much money from being a pure author. If you are a singer and an author, even you black-hearted businessmen will have to cut a big piece of meat for me. ”

Seeing that Mo Ming was such a dead duck with a hard mouth, Lin Yun, who didn't want to entangle with a child on this, had no choice but to back down and said, "Okay, it's that I'm thinking too much." So, let's get back to the original topic. Mo Ming, are you interested in signing a contract with our company? ”

"What contract can you give me?" Seeing Lin Yun retreat, Mo Ming also decisively went down the steps and talked to Lin Yun about business.

"Top newcomer contracts are only two years old and don't force you to do jobs you don't like. Correspondingly, we also have a series of requirements, and at the same time, we have the right to renew the contract with you first, under the same conditions. ”

"Give me a contract and I'll go back and think about it."

"Okay. When you return to Yingzhou, I will ask my secretary to give you a contract. So, after talking about this matter, let's continue to talk about the dream return authorization. ”

Hearing this, without waiting for Lin Yun to continue, Mo Ming preemptively stated his conditions and requirements: "I can give you the right to use the dream back for free, and at the same time give you the distribution and operation rights of the song, and then I will take ten percent of the net profit." ”

Facing Mo Ming's conditions and requirements, Lin Yun shook his head a little strangely and said, "Mo Ming, I really don't understand it now, what is the difference between these conditions you put forward and selling the copyright of the dream back to our company." ”

"It's my principle not to sell the copyright of songs, you can easily understand me, I don't want to give my stuff to others." Regarding Lin Yun's doubts, Mo Ming casually coped with nonsense.

Seeing this, Lin Yun, who was helpless, had no choice but to give up getting to the bottom of the matter, and bargained with Mo Ming seriously: "Okay, okay, but I can only give you three percent of the net profit." ”

"Damn, cut off seven percent at once, your heart is really black enough, nine percent."

"There's no way, it's hard to do business, especially since I still have a large number of people to feed here, four percent."

"Eight percent, that's my bottom line."

"Five percent, that's my bottom line as well."

"Seven and a half percent, it can't be any lower."

"Five .three percent, it can't be higher."

"Seven .three percent, don't push me."

"5.7 percent, don't force me."

"Let's take a step back, seven percent."

"Do you mean to take a step back? Six percent is a step back. ”

In this way, Mo Ming and Lin Yun were like vendors in the vegetable market, engaged in tug-of-war negotiations around the percentage of a few percent, in units of 0.1 percent.

In the end, the two people, who had been arguing for a long time, finalized the 6.6% sharing ratio.

After finalizing the sharing ratio, Lin Yun, who was unwilling to continue wasting time, immediately called a legal counsel of Huayun Group and asked him to draw up a licensing contract for the song.

And when the legal counsel was drafting the contract, Tianyu Yuko on the other side also asked someone to hire a lawyer to come over.

At around twelve o'clock in the afternoon, under the notarization of the lawyers of both parties, Lin Yun and Tianyu Yuko signed the contract.

After the contract was settled, Lin Yun, who saw that the time was not early, took Mo Ming and the three of them to a restaurant near the Wenhua Building and had a rather luxurious lunch as a celebration.

In the afternoon, after eating, Mo Ming entered the recording studio again and began to work with his head down.

The content of the work, to put it simply, is.

First of all, remake the accompaniment of Dream Return - the original accompaniment is too rough, even if it is used in live broadcast and in private, you can't use this quality accompaniment in formal occasions at all.

Then, according to Li Pingzhi's request, Menghui was rearranged and recorded, so that it could be integrated into the film and into the soundtrack as a whole - this is the most worrying part for Mo Ming, because his music creation skills are only at the entry level, even with the help of many professionals in the recording studio, it is difficult to meet Li Pingzhi's requirements.

After all, the rest of the soundtrack is the work of a master musician, and even if the style of the song is relatively similar, it is still not easy to successfully integrate into the soundtrack as a whole.

In desperation, Mo Ming could only endure the pain of spending two hundred and twenty achievement points to improve his music creation skills to a superb level, which was exchanged for Li Pingzhi's nod, and a sentence "Although it can't sublimate the soundtrack and improve the quality of the movie, at least it won't lower the quality of the soundtrack and the movie".

In the end, just like a sword drawing divine comedy in the previous life, but there are N versions, in order to make better money. No, it's for those fans who like to dream back, bringing more different audio-visual enjoyment. After recording the version needed for the movie, Mo Ming recorded several different versions of Dream Return, including the normal version, the lyrical version, the piano accompaniment version, and the violin accompaniment version.

Once the movie is released, these versions will be packaged with the movie version and sold as an album.

In this way, he was busy until seven or eight o'clock in the evening, and Mo Ming came out of the recording studio. And with the promised artist contract, as well as visiting the headquarters of Huaye Group all afternoon, because they saw their favorite stars, they were so excited and excited that they almost didn't forget Mo Ming, Tianyu Meiyu and Meiyu Yuko, took the train back to Yingzhou.
