Chapter 49: A Loose Contract

The two looked at each other and smiled, both guessing what was going on in each other's minds.

In the end, it was Liang Yusong who spoke first: "The scale of Songshi Records is not large, and it does not promote boy groups, but concentrates on making music."

"There are several first-line and quasi-first-line singers under it, and there are also cooperation with several kings and queens, if you don't have any other companies you want to go to, you can consider it."

This is a tacit understanding between musicians, Liang Yusong doesn't force it, just gives Fang Xing one more choice.

Although the cooperation between them is very harmonious, if you really want to sign a contract, you still have to make the terms of the contract clear.

Fang Xing thought for a while and said, "Have you heard my request to Chaoyin Culture?" ”

Liang Yusong nodded with his eyebrows and said, "Your request is basically a platinum contract." This kind of contract is usually prepared by large companies for super first-line singers.

"The characteristics of the platinum contract are that it is lenient and does not force artists to take jobs.

"I guarantee that no entertainment company in China will agree to these requests, do you believe it?"

Fang Xing nodded and admitted, "Indeed." ”

Liang Yusong continued: "Big companies want to make money, when is the most valuable period for the boy group? It was the first three months of the group's debut.

"Three months later, the popularity of the draft has declined, and the ability to make money has also begun to decline, and it will even be replaced by other emerging idol groups.

"Therefore, large companies should take advantage of the three months when the heat is the highest, and squeeze the value dry.

"One of the conditions you put forward is that you have the right to refuse the job arranged by the company, and no company will agree to this."

Fang Xing is well versed in the rules of the entertainment industry, so he knows that what Liang Yusong said is true.

Liang Yusong can talk about these things openly and honestly, not only wanting to be a partner, but also wanting to make friends.

In the eyes of musicians, Fang Xing's four songs are enough to prove his profound musical talent.

Idols will go out of style, but music won't.

Liang Yusong continued: "Songshi Records can agree to your request and not force you to take the job, the reason is very simple, I have seen your recording ability, you have the ability to make music.

"The ability to make music will not disappear in just three months, and I believe that your fame will only grow in the future.

"Therefore, the conditions you open, Songshi Records can basically agree, that is, the artist shares, and it is impossible for you to open the highest at the beginning."

Fang Xing didn't expect that the company would agree to the conditions he proposed, but he was a little surprised.

In fact, the conditions mentioned at the beginning were prepared to ask for a sky-high price and repay the money on the ground.

Of course, one of the reasons why Songshi Records agreed to those conditions is that Songshi Records does not be a boy group and cannot give any resources in this regard.

If the men's group has no resources and no exposure, the speed of passing will be amazingly fast.

On the earth's "Creation 101", some members of the original brokerage company who have no resources have basically found this person after the disbandment of the limited group.

Songshi Records does not have the resources of a men's group, so there is naturally less bargaining chips to negotiate a contract.

In fact.

Liang Yusong didn't plan to compete with Chaoyin Culture at the beginning.

After all, Songshi Records is making music, and it still has business dealings with Chaoyin Culture, and competing with Chaoyin Culture will inevitably affect future cooperation.

Of course, the competition between entertainment companies is already fierce.

As long as it is not illegal, the singers are signed according to their abilities.

If you don't dare to sign a new singer because you are afraid of Chaoyin culture, then Songshi Records doesn't need to mix in this industry.

Plainly.

What Chaoyin Culture wants is a popular player who debuts in the draft, and wants to use this popularity to make money.

Liang Yusong took a fancy to Fang Xing's music production ability, and the popularity accumulated in the draft was just icing on the cake.

Fang Xing thought for a while and asked, "If I sign Songshi Records, do I want to retire?" If I want to concentrate on making music, I don't want to sign a limited group contract. ”

If "Rising Star" debuts as a group, it is necessary to sign a limited group contract.

After the debut of the limited group, it was operated by Chaoyin Culture.

If you sign Songshi Records, make your debut in a group, and then fall back into the hands of Chaoyin Culture, you don't have to think about it, you will definitely be wearing small shoes.

Therefore, if he signs Songshi Records, Fang Xing will not want to form a group and may face withdrawal.

Liang Yusong smiled and said, "There is no need to withdraw from the competition, we also have cooperation with Feifan Entertainment, and I am also the mentor of the show." If you are also interested, I will ask the company to draw up a contract and send it to you tomorrow, don't worry, think about it carefully and then make a decision. ”

"Okay, I'll think about it."

When it comes to signing a contract, it is not possible to negotiate it in one or two sentences, but it is still necessary to make a decision after seeing the contract.

……

After returning to the training camp, Fang Xing, as usual, led the team members to rehearse the repertoire.

In the afternoon of the next day, I received an accompaniment from Turquoise Records.

In addition to the accompaniment, there is also a contract.

The percentage of the share in the contract is not written and is empty.

This is not the meaning of asking Fang Xing to fill in casually, but the meaning of interviewing.

What really needs to be looked at in detail is the specific terms of the contract.

Including the rights and obligations of Party A and Party B, as well as the detailed rules.

After reading this contract, Fang Xing can say that this contract is much more lenient than the contract of Chaoyin Culture.

The strictest contract of Chaoyin Culture is that artists cannot refuse the work arranged by the company.

The strictness of this rule depends on how cruel the company can be.

While playing the hanging bottle, while receiving notices, this kind of thing is not an uncommon thing in a large company like Chaoyin Culture.

The contract of Songshi Records is relatively loose, but there is a clause that after the contract, all the songs produced can only be released by Songshi Records.

This is a hard and fast clause of the Turquoise Records contract.

When Fang Xing saw this, he felt that it was quite reasonable.

Because the contract of Songshi Records is not so much about signing a singer as it is about signing a music producer.

If Pinestone Records signed a music producer, and the music producer also handed over the song to another company for distribution, then why did Songshi Records sign this person?

After Fang Xing read this contract, he was still satisfied with the general direction of the contract, and the specific shares and details needed to be discussed face-to-face.

Of course.

The contract is not in a hurry, you can wait until after this performance.

Turquoise Records also did not rush to sign.

In fact, Fang Xing, Songshi Records and Chaoyin Culture, all three parties are waiting and waiting for the results of this performance.

If Fang Xing loses to Wu Junchen in this performance, then the limelight will inevitably decline.

When the time comes, Chaoyin culture can use this to reduce the price.

It's the same with Turquoise Records.

Although Pinestone Records has a very lenient contract, Pinestone Records is a company that also wants to make money.

The less the artist share of the contract, the more the company can earn.

Fang Xing also understood this truth, so he was also waiting.

As long as Wu Junchen wins this performance, he can get a higher share ratio when negotiating the contract.

Fang Xing is not a pure businessman, but he is not a saint either, and he also wants to make money.
