Chapter 271 Reaching Intentions
For Chengxin's dislike that the price is too low, Tang Yongzhi is absolutely not strange.
In fact, at the beginning, the advance quotation negotiated by the global side was only a little more than half of the current price. It's 40 million, of course, it's still dollars.
A company, there are always a few self-righteous 2bs.
Through some channels, they did not ask Tang Yong or let him investigate, and briefly learned about Chengxin.
arrogantly feels that Chengxin is a singer who is a little famous in China.
The main reason is that Chengxin is too salty, and there are too few reports about him from the outside world, and every time he releases a song, he will have a period of popularity, so it will make the high-level leaders of the world self-righteous.
Thinking that the world is such a big company, one of the best in the world, there is no way to get Chengxin, a newcomer from China?
Give him tens of millions, it can be regarded as his album is indeed very good, and the fact that Universal gives too little is not good-looking, which affects his reputation a little.
After discussing, the matter was handed over to Tang Yong to be responsible for talking to Chengxin.
As a result, Tang Yong got the information, and it was directly like the other party made a suggestion, the price was too low.
Then he informed the world of the total amount of songs that Chengxin paid to download three times in China.
In a year, the other party released more than 50 songs and received more than 800 million downloads, with an average of more than 10 million songs.
And the other party is not bad for money, just these paid downloads of songs, at least bring the other party nearly 100 million US dollars in revenue.
If the headquarters uses this offer to the other party, the other party should not agree.
Moreover, even if the group threatens him with some means, it will not be of much use.
The other party doesn't like to be famous very much, so he wants to make some money, and recently announced that all the songs will be free in the future, even if the group uses his relationship to block him, it is useless.
Broken dirty water? Please Navy Black? That's even more useless, no one else is in the circle, and it's not the kind of star who wants to be famous.
In addition to singing and sending videos, Chengxin does not appear in the public's field of vision, and there is hairy black material.
Moreover, if they do so, they will completely offend the other party, and their purpose is not like this.
As for manipulating album sales and embezzling album sales, Universal will not do this, which is related to the credibility of the entire Universal
They won't do it for a little money, otherwise the world wouldn't be able to hold out for more than a hundred years.
At most, I don't promote it hard, and at the same time, I don't let my channels sell albums too hard.
However, this will just make Chengxin earn less money, and it is still the method of killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred.
There was no way, Universal abandoned the original plan, and then increased the offer by one section, and left a hole card.
"Chengxin, this price is actually not bad, such as CD, even if it is five million sales, excluding various costs and taxes, there is no 40 million in your hands, after all, we still have to divide 30 percent.
"As for online downloads, 20 million is a lot, and it takes nearly 5 million downloads per song to get so much."
"Although the group has a high opinion of your album, there are uncertainties, right?
"Moreover, the group buys out your songs, also to earn a little more, if the bid is too high, the group doesn't need to go so troublesome, isn't it good to take the share with peace of mind?"
"Originally, someone in the group proposed to suppress your album a little, but it was rejected by many management, so we were still more sincere.
Tang Yong's words sounded good, but there were some warnings in them.
Brother, we are really sincere, this price is not low, if you are not satisfied, the group may use the next three indiscriminate means.
Chengxin is not afraid of anything, there is a domestic base of 400 million, and there is no panic when you have money.
Universal really dares to do this, take 100 million out to play a lawsuit against them, hehe.
"Mr. Tang, don't tell me so much, I don't read much and can't negotiate."
"I don't believe you've shown your hole cards right now, but don't treat me like a three-year-old."
"But if this is really the bottom line of the world, then I won't mention it."
"You are in China, and you also know that this time I am at Penguin, and I should be able to get two or three hundred million shares."
"So, I'm not short of money right now."
"Moreover, I also want to retire, and I am not afraid of any interruption on the side of the world."
"It's a big deal, I'll give Universal $10 million, stop this collaboration, and this album will be thrown away."
Chengxin is so stubborn, anyway, you want to buy out, I'm not panicking at all.
You threaten me, hehe, then I'll flip the table, is there no other publishing company besides Universal?
For Chengxin's threat, Tang Yong also didn't care.
Negotiations, it's all about you coming and going, as long as the talks don't collapse, you can use any broken hand.
"Chengxin, you are flipping the table without saying a word, hehe, so that I can take a step on this side."
"Money, the price we give remains the same, let's give you a run, this year let you go to the beautiful country to win two awards, how about it, it's no problem now, right?"
Glammy is the largest and most influential music award in the world. ”
In China, let's talk about a few people who have won awards from Glaimei, all of which are not high in gold content, and others are just nominated. ”
Although Glamé is very fair, as long as it is elected, there is no real fairness.
However, they are not like a certain golden rooster in the earth, and their acting skills are like.
Others still have a bottom line, take money for public relations, and the judges just give you a little bit of bias in the selected golden songs.
If the quality is not good, others will not dare to do that.
!
! I plugged in, this is telling me to brush the prize again? These people are all negotiated, aren't they?
However, if you can win one or two high-value awards, it will be good.
Chengxin listened to the other party's operation for himself, and went to Glaimei to get an award, and his heart was a little different.
After all, money is a thing, and it is impossible for the other party to give himself too much, if the gold content is high, it seems that it is not a loss.
"Mr. Tang, I am a little worried about the price you added, there are many kinds of awards, and you will give me a partial award when the time comes, so I am not a big loss?
Chengxin plans to ask clearly, what award can the other party give him, don't just take a small prize to himself at that time, it is better to let the other party pay more money to be cost-effective.
"Hehe, don't worry about this, if you really make a deal, there will definitely be one of the four grand prizes."
It's not that Tang Yong is fooling Chengxin, if a deal is really reached, the world will definitely give Chengxin a four-pronged award.
It's not about credibility, it's about winning awards, and then better promoting the album and winning more sales.
"That's good, but how do I feel like I'm still a little bit at a loss? Do you want to give me a price increase? ”
Chengxin also wanted to squeeze some oil out.
!
My brother Chengxin, I will give you one of the four Gremy awards, but it will cost a lot of money over there, and if you add more money, you really won't make much. ”
Tang Yong was a little moved when he saw Chengxin, but he still didn't agree, and immediately began to cry poor.
I believe you're a ghost, you can't make any money, and you're a fool.
For Tang Yong's words, Chengxin didn't believe it at all.
However, he knows that the other party must have reserved room for price increases, but it may not be much.
I originally thought that it would be enough to earn one or two billion Chinese dollars abroad.
This one-time buyout has more than 50 million US dollars, which has exceeded his expectations.
As the saying goes, a strong dragon can't overpower the head snake, so take it when you see it, after all, it's a foreign country.
Unless you can't get by with your anger and money, you can't fight this kind of large multinational enterprise.
"Mr. Tang, $55 million after tax, no problem."
"But I won't sell the copyright in China, and I promise domestic fans that I won't charge for songs in the future."
"If you think it's okay, then we're happy to work together."
In the end, Chengxin did not ask for the price, but just left the domestic copyright.
"Leave the copyright in the country? That's fine, but Chengxin, at least for a year, you can't upload songs to music platforms. ”
"After all, foreign countries are still selling well, you can do a Chinese country for free, and we must not lose money."
Mr. Tang heard that Chengxin was not asking for the price, but just withheld the copyright of Huaguo, so he agreed without thinking too much.
On the global side, there was no calculation of the Chinese market.
Moreover, no one said that without Chinese copyright, you can't make money from Chinese people? It's just that it's earned less.
Anyway, the album will be sold online, what if a fan of Chengxin buys it abroad and then brings it back to China?
"Okay, then it's a pleasure to work together."
Cheng Xin agreed.
For domestic copyright, Chengxin actually doesn't want others to cut the leeks of his fans in China.
If it's late and early, he doesn't care much about it, maybe he's in a bad mood, and it's possible that he doesn't upload it.
