094 [Ryuichi Sakamoto's Recommendation] Ask for votes

After saluting, Fujiwara Yuki was still standing there, and Li Yange said in English: "Sit!" Mr. Fujiwara sat down and said. ”

"Hey!"

Fujiwara Yuki spoke English in general, but he understood this sentence, and he didn't need to listen to Ryuichi Sakamoto's translation, so he sat down with Ning Ying and the others.

Everyone sat down, and no one spoke for a while.

Li Yange didn't know what to say, because the other party came too suddenly.

Yuki Fujiwara was sorting out his language, thinking about how to impress the other party to sign a contract with Polygram.

Sakamoto Ryu saw that the two of them didn't speak, and he also took the initiative to say: "Mr. Li, Fujiwara came here this time to talk to you about the release of the album." ”

"That's right!" Fujiwara Yuki took over the conversation and said: "The songs written by Li Sang are really amazing, and the producers in our company are very satisfied with your work, so I was specially sent to talk to Li Sang about signing a cooperation." ”

After Ryuichi Sakamoto translated, Li Yange thought for a while and asked, "Mr. Fujiwara, I don't know how your company wants to cooperate?" ”

"Mr. Yu Zuo, the manager of our company's artist department, likes Li Sang's work very much and wants to sign you to become our first Polygram artist in the Chinese mainland market."

Speaking of this, Fujiwara Yuki was afraid that Li Yange would not know the power of Polygram, so he said: "Li Sang may not know about our Polygram, so I will briefly tell you that our Polygram is headquartered in the United Kingdom, but most of the funds and manpower invested are in the Asian market, especially in Hong Kong, and the Wanwan area, a large number of artists have been signed, and more than 1......,000 albums have been released."

Li Yange saw Fujiwara Yuki gushing, and also interrupted: "Mr. Fujiwara, I have also heard of you Polygram. At the same time, I am very aware of PolyGram's strength in Asia, but as far as I know, PolyGram does not seem to invest in our mainland market at present, you should know that I am still a student, mainly focusing on my studies, and it may not be convenient to go to the mainland for development. ”

"Li Sang, please rest assured, our company is currently discussing the opening of two offices in the mainland capital and Guangzhou in the near future, mainly to sign mainland artists and release albums. Li Sang signed a contract with our company, and there is no need to go to this capital in the future. Moreover, our company is very optimistic about Li Sang's future development, so we gave Polygram the top artist contract within it, and always have a high degree of autonomy! ”

After Yuki Fujiwara said the benefits related to the artist contract, a confident smile appeared on his face, in his opinion, as long as he said the content of the contract, Li Yange would agree to it 100%.

"I'm sorry Mr. Fujiwara, but the conditions offered by your company are indeed tempting, but I don't have the idea of signing any company for the time being."

Li Yange hesitated for a long time, and finally shook his head and refused.

To be honest, he was very moved after hearing the conditions given by Fujiwara Yuki, especially when he released at least one music album for Li Yange every year, and he would do his best to promote him in Yuben, these two points alone are very tempting.

But it's still the same sentence, no matter how generous the signing conditions are, as long as the contract is signed, then Li Yange will be firmly tied up by the company in the next few years, once there is a disagreement with Polygram, the ghost knows whether Yuki Fujiwara, who looks polite now, will turn his face and deny people.

And even if Li Yange wants to sign a company, it can't be at this time.

If nothing else, as long as "The Last Emperor" is released within this year, it will definitely shine at the Academy Awards next year, and by then with the title of winning the Academy Award for Best Score, a lot of record companies want to sign him.

I am afraid that the conditions given are even more generous than those given by Fujiwara Yuki now, and Li Yange can also have more choices.

Decades have passed in his last life, and he can still afford to wait for a year.

What's more, you don't have to wait a year.

Yuki Fujiwara, who was originally full of confidence, was still thinking that he could take over the mainland office in the future, but when he heard that Li Yange refused to sign the contract, he was stunned on the spot, and it took a while to react, and hurriedly said: "Li Sang, are you not satisfied with the conditions given by our company?" This aspect can still be discussed! ”

"No, Mr. Fujiwara, the conditions offered by your company are very generous, and I am very tempted to hear it, but at the moment I don't want to sign with any company."

Li Yange deliberately accentuated the tone of "any company", and Sakamoto Ryu, who was preparing to translate on the side, glanced at him and roughly understood the meaning, so when he translated again, he also aggravated this sentence.

…………

Half an hour later.

Li Yange and Ning Ying left.

Only Yuki Fujiwara and Ryuichi Sakamoto were left in the suite.

"Sakamoto-kun, what the hell does he mean? I've given such generous signing conditions! ”

Fujiwara Yuki frowned, and he was very puzzled why Li Yange's attitude was so resolute, you must know that Polygram has already prepared to enter the mainland market, and as a contracted Li Yange, he will get a lot of resources in the future, not only in the mainland market, but also in the local market.

Ryuichi Sakamoto didn't answer him, but asked rhetorically, "Fujiwara, have you listened carefully to those tunes I sent you?" ”

"Of course I listen..."

Fujiwara just wanted to say that he had heard it, but when he saw Ryuichi Sakamoto's face, he said abruptly: "I've been busy lately, and I need to be in charge of Miss Nakajima's new album, so I ......"

"Mr. Li is a young man I have seen who is very talented in music, and his future achievements are limitless, so I sent you those songs he composed after knowing that there are no record companies in the Chinese mainland market, but you didn't listen to them!"

Ryuichi Sakamoto hated iron and said: "Fujiwara, I have known you for many years and know your character, but if you don't change this problem, I think you will be ruined sooner or later." ”

"Sakamoto-kun, is Li Sang really as talented as you say?" Fujiwara Yuki was stunned, he didn't expect Ryuichi Sakamoto to say such heavy words, and at the same time, he was also surprised by his evaluation of Li Yange.

Born in 1952, he graduated in 1976 with a master's degree in sound studies at Tokyo University of the Arts.

In 1977, he collaborated with his friends Harutomi Hosono and Yukihiro Takahashi, and the following year the three formed an electronic band, and then released an album, which set off a lot of repercussions at the time, which also further enhanced Ryuichi Sakamoto's fame.

In 1983, Ryuichi Sakamoto co-starred with David Bowie in the war drama "Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence", and he was also responsible for the soundtrack of the film, which won the Best Score Award at the 37th British Academy Film Awards and was nominated for the Best Score Award at the 7th RB Academy Film Awards in the same year.

It was also with the British Academy Film Award for Best Score that Ryuichi Sakamoto was called a "musical genius" by the media and was almost a household name in the music industry.

In the future, after winning the Oscar for "The Last Emperor", he was called "the last composer of the Showa era" by the media! ”

Of course, "The Last Emperor" has not yet been released, let alone won the Oscar, but now Ryuichi Sakamoto, who has already received many honors, admires Li Yange's musical talent so much, you can imagine how shocking it was to Yuki Fujiwara.

"That's right, talented! You haven't heard the soundtrack he wrote for the film, and although the song "Memories of the Forbidden City" was not adopted, I believe that as long as you hear this music, you will definitely be excited. It is a shocking, magnificent and majestic masterpiece! ”

Ryuichi Sakamoto is now in his thirties, and he is a very famous composer, if he is not really optimistic about Li Yange, how could he say this.

Seeing his attitude, Fujiwara Yuki gritted his teeth, nodded and said, "I know what to do Sakamoto-kun!" ”
