Tuesday morning, the studio has a regular meeting.

So far, Fang Xing has taken over the work, and he is still taking over in the name of the studio.

Although the new company "Ark Culture" was registered, in fact, the company's framework has not yet been set up.

In a sense, the company is now a leather bag company.

The work of the company is also mainly done by the employees of the studio.

However, at present, the Ark culture only has the project of "Singing Loudly".

And as long as this project is produced by Feifan Entertainment, Ark Culture actually doesn't have much workload.

However, as the company's business continues to expand, the company will definitely grow.

Fang Xing has also been asking Qiao Yinghong to pay attention to talents in this area, especially to find a suitable human resources director.

"Boss, I've asked an acquaintance from a headhunter to help keep an eye on HR talent. I have also received several resumes, but it is still only in the initial stage of understanding, and this matter needs to be intentional on both sides before proceeding to the next step. Qiao Yinghong reported her previous work first.

Followed by.

Fang Xing began to arrange the selection of songs on the theme of royal power: "Guo Keda, I sent you a sample of the song with the theme of royal power in the morning, have you heard it?" ”

"Of course I listened, super awesome!" Guo Keda gave a thumbs up, and the word worship was written all over his body.

"Okay, don't take the notice these days, you mainly practice the rap part, let's do it together tomorrow, I want a refreshing and free rap." Fang Xing arranged for Guo Keda to practice singing first, and the chorus effect will not be known until tomorrow after the joint practice.

Guo Keda swiped his finger on his forehead and promised: "No problem, I have already pushed off this week's announcement, and the thought of being able to be on satellite TV makes my whole body pore excited." ”

Fang Xing looked at Qiao Yinghong and said, "Is there anything else to discuss?" ”

The trivial things in the studio no longer need Fang Xing to ask.

However, when it comes to business and songs, it is still necessary to report to wake up here.

Qiao Yinghong flipped out a work report and said, "That's right, there is a cooperation plan of Joy Entertainment Company here, and the boss needs to take a look." ”

As she spoke, she pushed a plan in front of Fang Xing.

Fang Xing took it and flipped through it casually, the content was about "It's a pity that there was no if".

Qiao Yinghong explained on the side: "Huanyue Entertainment is Shen Xiyin's agency, and it wants to release "Unfortunately Not If", saying that it will record the CD version first, and when the program is broadcast, it will be released simultaneously.

"The other party also said that they can choose to sing in chorus, or Shen Xiyin solo, for which Joy Entertainment is willing to pay a one-time payment of 3 million to purchase the license, and at the same time, our studio will share 30% of the follow-up income."

The song "It's a pity that there is no if" was sung by Fang Xing and Shen Xiyin in the show, but the CD version has not yet been recorded.

Moreover, "Sing Loudly" was not broadcast.

Generally speaking, it is normal for a song like this to be sung on a show for the first time, and when the show is broadcast, it is a normal thing to release it simultaneously.

However, herein lies the problem.

Joy Entertainment wanted to release the song through their channels.

The price is a bit awkward.

The copyright fee of three million is already good for an average song.

However, if Songshi Records is released, Fang Xing can get a 50% revenue share.

It's a bit strange to have fun and entertain this way.

If Fang Xing really agrees to Joy Entertainment to release "It's a pity that there is no if", it means that Joy Entertainment has eaten the cake of Songshi Records, and at the same time, the share given is only 30%.

"I don't understand, what is this company trying to do?" Fang Xing's face was full of doubts.

In fact, these conditions offered by Huanyue Entertainment are actually good in the domestic music scene, and 90% of musicians will agree to this plan.

Only gold medal producers like Xu Shangyan and Li Yucheng will scoff at this kind of cooperation.

And Fang Xing so far, even if he sings songs for other singers, he is getting 50% of the share, even if it is the diva Zhang Huiying.

This makes this cooperation plan of Joy Entertainment a bit of an empty glove white wolf.

Qiao Yinghong casually guessed: "It may be that Huanyue Entertainment wants to open a price first, and wait for us to return the price." Or maybe they think that Shen Xiyin has already sung this song on the show, and if you want to give this song to them, you have to give it to them. ”

Fang Xing was even more puzzled, and asked, "Is it Shen Xiyin who came over and said that he wanted to release "It's a pity that there is no if"? ”

Xiao Zhao, the executive agent in charge of the contact, hurriedly shook his head: "I didn't see Shen Xiyin, it was Shen Xiyin's agent who talked to me." Because the boss and Shen Xiyin have just cooperated, I'm not sure if the boss and Shen Xiyin have talked about it, so I can only report this job. ”

Fang Xing thought for a moment and said, "Sister Hong, let's talk to Shen Xiyin to see if she wants to release this song so much." ”

Qiao Yinghong nodded and agreed: "Okay, I'll call Shen Xiyin at noon and ask what you think over there." ”

……

At two o'clock in the afternoon.

Fang Xing's mobile phone rang, and when he answered it, it was Qiao Yinghong's call.

"Boss, Shen Xiyin came to the studio and said that he wanted to explain to you in person. I've talked to her and she's had a problem with the agency and has been apologizing to me. If the boss is not available, I will ask her to go back first and talk about it in detail at the next meeting. ”

Qiao Yinghong said that she couldn't tell the matter clearly on the phone, and she was not in a hurry about this matter, so she could stay for another meeting.

Fang Xing just had time, so he said, "Forget it, I'm near the company, let's go over." ”

Ten minutes later.

Fang Xing returned to the company, and as soon as he entered the door, Shen Xiyin hurriedly stood up and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I really don't know about the release of songs." It was done by the company without authorization, and the agent didn't tell me about it. ”

"Sit down first."

Fang Xing pointed to the chair in the conference room.

After Shen Xiyin sat down, he sighed: "Actually, my contract is about to expire, and Chaoyin Culture wanted to sign a contract with me before. My company also wanted to renew the contract, but I didn't make up my mind, so neither side agreed.

"After the disbandment of the limited group, Huanyu has been talking to me about renewing the contract, and has not arranged a job for me.

"This time, "Sing Loudly" was found by Mr. Tong, although the contract was signed by the agent.

"I know Mr. Fang's rules, singers don't take a share, I don't dare to ask for the release of "Unfortunately No If".

"I swear, it really wasn't my idea, I swear."

She held up three fingers, and the expression on her face was very serious.

Fang Xing smiled casually: "Don't be so nervous, the cooperation plan sent by Huanyue is not in line with the regular cooperation plan on my side."

"So, I originally wanted to ask you, is the pleasure side making an offer, waiting for us to make a counter?"

Shen Xiyin frowned and said suspiciously, "I'm ...... It's also not clear. In the two years I have been in the limited group, Huanyue basically does not participate in the work, but only takes a share.

"So, I don't know much about pleasure now."

Fang Xing looked at her and asked again, "Then do you want to release "Unfortunately No If"? ”

Shen Xiyin nodded vigorously: "Of course, I want to, how can I not want to, but I don't dare to expect extravagance, I listen to the teacher's arrangement." ”

Qiao Yinghong interjected and said a possibility: "Boss, Huanyu may also force her to renew the contract and deliberately fix her." ”

Fang Xing also asked curiously: "You don't renew the contract with Huanyue, are you sure it's okay?" ”

Generally speaking.

The agency will more or less grasp some of the artist's black materials, and when the contract expires, these black materials are a strong weight.

In other words, if Huanyu wants to force Shen Xiyin to renew the contract, but Shen Xiyin refuses to agree, the two parties will tear their faces, and Huanyue may directly destroy her.

Shen Xiyin nodded in affirmation: "I really don't really want to renew the contract." ”

Actually, Fang Xing still knows a little about a brokerage company like Shen Xiyin.

Although Shen Xiyin's popularity was not bad in the two years of the limited group, in fact, she didn't make much money.

An artist like her, who debuts as a trainee, usually has an agreement with the agency of the original brokerage company, and the sharing ratio is 28 kai.

In other words, Shen Xiyin can only get 20%.

However, the money she actually got was far less than 20%.

Because of her announcement fee during the limited group period, Chaoyin Culture has to scrape more than half of it first, and then her original company scrapes 80%, and it has to deduct operating expenses, etc., and the money that really comes to her is not much.

Of course, it also depends on who she compares to, in terms of her income, she can actually live a very rich life.

Fang Xing asked curiously: "I don't want to renew the contract, and I don't want to sign Chaoyin Culture, is this a good next home?" ”

Shen Xiyin was stunned for a moment and replied, "No, but Mr. Tong talked to me and asked me about the contract." After the limited group was disbanded, the first S-level resource was given by Mr. Tong, and I trusted her more. ”

Fang Xing nodded and said, "I probably understand the matter, you don't have to be too nervous, if it's okay, go back first." ”

Shen Xiyin bowed and apologized several times before being sent out by Qiao Yinghong.

After Qiao Yinghong sent the people away, she returned to the conference room and asked, "Does the boss want to sign Shen Xiyin?" ”

Fang Xing thought about it for a moment and said, "I haven't thought about it yet, our studio is too small to bring so many artists." Even if it expands, it will not develop in two or three years. ”

In fact.

Lu Ming and Guo Keda are indeed signed under the name of the studio, but in fact, the studio does not have an agency team to take them.

Guo Keda basically receives the notice by himself, and sometimes brings Lu Ming and Shao Yu.

Now the team in the studio is too busy to be in charge of the songs.

This is still the premise that Fang Xing usually does not receive notices.

If you want to sign Shen Xiyin, you can't just sign a record contract.

If you sign an agency contract, you have to set up a brokerage team to take her, otherwise she will be dissatisfied even if she has no opinion at the beginning.

After all, Shen Xiyin is not a simple singer, she is an idol group debutant, it is impossible to only sing, but also take on other jobs, without an agent team to take her, it is not possible.

Moreover, entertainment companies, brokerage companies, film and television companies, record companies, the business of different companies varies greatly.

Like Songshi Records, it is a record company, which mainly produces music, and the company basically only signs singers, and the jobs given to singers are basically related to singing.

Feifan Entertainment is a production company specializing in variety shows.

Previously, Feifan Entertainment even "sold" the talent manager contract of the talent debut to Chaoyin Culture.

Like Jade Bird Media and Ruide Film and Television, they are film and television companies, and even if they sign artists, they only sign actors and directors.

Chaoyin Culture is more like a brokerage company specializing in operating idol groups, taking on any job, commercial performances, variety shows, film and television, as long as you can make money, you can take any job.

A company needs to find the right positioning, and it is impossible to do everything.

Fang Xing is more inclined to do content rather than managing artists.

Therefore, he did not throw an olive branch to Shen Xiyin.

The main thing is that I don't plan to spend my energy on managing artists.

……

Thursday, two days before the recording of the second chorus session of "Sing Aloud".

Tong Fei used her private mobile phone to make an appointment for a meal.

Fang Xing was not busy, so he agreed to eat with her.

During the meal, we first talked about the production of the program.

"In addition to you, me, and Penguin Video, you have taken other capital investments?" Fang Xing asked a seemingly random question.

Tong Fei laughed and said, "I know what you mean." But don't worry, except for the three of us, there are no big investors.

"The investment of individual small companies is actually to send singers to the show to show their faces. It's a common occurrence, and they don't interfere in the production of the show.

"As for Tan Zhiguan, it is the relationship of Donghai Satellite TV, after all, our program is going to be broadcast on Donghai Satellite TV, and we can't refuse this matter."

Fang Xing didn't care too much about it, and instead asked, "Mr. Tong came out for dinner with me today, just to talk about the show?" ”

Tong Fei smiled heartily and said, "Are you really, do you have to say everything so clearly?" You can't just have a meal. ”

"I'm so idle, it's no problem to just eat, but a busy person like Mr. Tong can't just eat." Fang Xing already knew this woman very well, and knew that she was definitely not here to eat.

Tong Fei folded her chin with her hands and said: "The popularity of the fluorescent girl has begun to decline, and "Chinese Words" is about to come off the hot song list.

"When is Mr. Fang, arrange another song for them."

Fang Xing smiled and said, "Mr. Tong originally came to invite songs." I can't even prepare a song for myself, so I don't have time. ”

Tong Feicai didn't believe it, and teased: "I don't believe it, you say there is no song every time, but you can come up with a new song every time." ”

"Then I'll arrange Songshi's music production department to customize a song for Mr. Tong?" Fang Xing proposed.

Nowadays, the songs of many idol groups are customized in cooperation with record companies and well-known producers.

If Tong Fei really wants to find a record company to customize a song, she doesn't need to invite Fang Xing to dinner.

She shook her head and said, "I don't want them, I want yours." ”

Fang Xing shook his head and said, "They sang about waste. ”

Tong Fei raised his eyebrows and said, "I still said no, this is a good thing that I don't want to take out." ”

Fang Xing smiled and didn't speak.

Tong Fei also knows that there are few people in the limited group of fluorescent girls who can sing.

Idol groups, it's basically at this level.

Besides, the song was sung by a fluorescent girl, and Tong Fei naturally made a lot of money, but why?

Tong Fei understood this truth, and did not continue to insist on it, but asked: "The contract between Shen Xiyin and the original brokerage company is about to expire, listen to Xiyin, you have talked about this matter."

"Do you want to sign Shen Xiyin? If you want to sign it, I won't grab it.

"Even if you can't grab it, you just give her a song casually, and she will leave with you with her eyes closed."

Fang Xing shook his head and said, "I want to concentrate on making content, and I don't plan to waste my energy on operating artists." ”

When Tong Fei heard this, her eyes lit up and she said, "If you don't want to waste your energy, you can leave it to me." Why don't we cooperate to open a brokerage company?

"Re-register a brokerage company, we join forces, sign Shen Xiyin, I am responsible for organizing the team to take her, and you are responsible for the content.

"The fluorescent girl can also sign in to this agency, so you don't have to hide your secrets, what do you think?"

When Fang Xing heard this plan, he was very interested.

Fei Fan Entertainment's company is very large, and if Tong Fei is in charge of running the brokerage company, there is indeed no problem.

Moreover, she is already running Fluorescent Girl, and the framework of the agency has been established.

"How does Mr. Tong plan to distribute the shares?" Fang Xing asked.

"50% each, my team is responsible for the operation, and you have a veto. The brokerage company in which we have a joint stock is only responsible for the management of the artist, and is not responsible for other things. Tong Fei replied.

What this means is that the copyright of songs, TV series and other content is not placed in this brokerage company.

Fang Xing nodded slowly and said, "This plan is okay." ”

In the entertainment industry, the larger the company, the more shareholders there are, and it is normal to operate in partnerships.

Fang Xing wants to concentrate on content, and he definitely doesn't have so much energy to manage the company.

At present, Tong Fei is very sincere and can cooperate.

If the cooperation is pleasant, you can become a long-term partner, which will be a win-win situation.

If the cooperation is not pleasant, then say another thing.

As long as the copyright of songs, film and television dramas is placed in Ark Culture, the foundation is stable.

In other respects, it is possible to cooperate freely.
