Chapter 29: Poaching
Because it was said before that Jiang Kan needed to think about it for a few days, it had only been two days, and Zhang Lingling was not good at urging again.
Unexpectedly, in Liu Zhiheng's tavern that night, Jiang Kan was targeted by people from other entertainment companies.
"Hello Mr. Jiang, I am Liang Kun, the singer agent of Radiance Entertainment, you can call me Xiaoliang."
Jiang Kan finished singing, and a man in his thirties in a suit and leather shoes was exquisitely dressed and presented five flower baskets.
Then when he thanked everyone for their support and applause, and came down to find a place to rest, Liang Kun walked over to him with a polite smile.
"Oh? Liang Xian...... Trabeculae? Hello hello hello. ”
He reached out and took the other's outstretched hand, and got up to greet him.
"Mr. Jiang's singing voice is really shocking and unforgettable!"
"Wherever and where, sing whatever you want, sing whatever you want......"
Jiang Kan also said politely, but he didn't take the initiative to talk, he wanted to see what kind of olive branch this agent of Radiant Entertainment would throw to him.
Forty-year-old people, how can there be no general common sense, people show that the car will come and tell their identity, so can they have other ideas besides wanting to sign themselves?
"Hehe, Mr. Jiang is really modest. That's right, Mr. Jiang, my leader and I have heard your song on Feixing Music Network, and we are very impressed by your singing. ”
"What's more, the lyrics and composer of this song are still yourself, which is even more commendable."
Liang Kun sat very upright, and did not touch the beer at hand, and communicated with Jiang Kan with a slightly respectful attitude.
"So, the leader sent me to Rongcheng to contact Mr. Jiang to see if there is a possibility of signing a contract."
"After listening to your singing live in the audience just now, I am sure that you are indeed a very good singer worthy of our serious attention."
He pointed to the boiling crowd around him and said with great satisfaction.
"I believe in my ears and eyes, you are a singer worthy of our Radiance Entertainment initiative to sign a contract, and you should also know that our company is one of the top three entertainment companies in Xia Kingdom, and there are few rivals in China in terms of professionalism and authority."
"If Mr. Jiang is willing to come to our company, we will send professional personnel to operate and enhance your popularity, and also provide great help and support for your creative career.
Listening to Liang Kun's words, Jiang Kan occasionally politely cooperated and nodded frequently at first, after all, it is also the third largest company in China, and he is willing to come to Rongcheng to negotiate a contract with him, and he can't be too careful.
But when you listen to this, how do you feel that the direction is getting more and more wrong?
"When I first listened to "People Like Me", I felt that this was destined to be a song that was widely sung and could even become popular in the circle, and with your heavenly voice, it was only a matter of time before this song became popular."
Liang Kun didn't notice the change in Jiang Kan's expression, perhaps because of the dim light in the tavern.
"So, if this is your true level, then we can trust that you will be able to write more excellent works in the future, bringing us countless surprises."
"And your other song "The Wind Rises" also convinced me of this, you are indeed a very promising composer and lyricist, and if you come to our company, you will definitely be able to get a very good development in the creative department......"
"Wait......"
Jiang Kan stretched out his hand and stopped the other party's words.
"Huh...... I don't know if there is any deviation between my understanding and what you said, Mr. Liang, but how do I sound that your company signed me as a creator who intends to sign me as a songwriter? ”
Obedient and listening, not to mention that the other party's words have been said so obviously, he has a sentence in his own singing, but he is always talking about his own song itself?
"Well, that's right, indeed, your voice talent is not amazing, and I, as a senior singer agent, am also deeply impressed by you."
"However, what our company values more is your creative talent, and we want you to be a songwriter more than a singer."
Liang Kun said eloquently without changing his face, and he didn't seem to hear the sorrow in Jiang Kan's tone.
"But, what I want to be is a singer, and the creative stuff is just incidental ......"
Jiang Kan saw that the other party was playing Tai Chi with him, and after thinking about it for a while, he still took the initiative to bring it up.
Just kidding, I finally found out that I was a natural singer, and your singer agent didn't value this and signed me as a singer, but instead asked me to be a songwriter in another way?
Didn't you buy a pearl for the pearl?
"Ahem...... Mr. Jiang, in fact, there are some things that we don't need to say so clearly, everyone actually knows ...... in their hearts."
Liang Kun's eyes rolled in his sockets a few times, thought about his words for a while, and said politely.
But Jiang Kan didn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in his gourd.
What do you mean that some words don't need to be said so clearly?
What is the meaning of "everyone actually has a number in their hearts?" ”
Your singer agent came to me, a person who wants to be a singer, what do you need to say and say half to keep half?
"Ahem...... Mr. Jiang, since you still haven't understood what I said, then I can only make it clear......"
The other man coughed slightly uncomfortably and cleared his throat.
"As a rookie singer, if you want to make your debut, ahem...... In fact, in terms of age...... Ahem...... It's still a little bit on the big side. ”
As soon as Liang Kun said this, Jiang Kan immediately realized!
It turns out that I dislike that I'm too old!
By the way, when chatting with Yu Kai before, the two mentioned that they were forty years old, and they did suffer a little bit in the singing world.
After all, the singers signed by other entertainment companies are basically staring at young people.
First, it is young, plastic, and has the potential to be cultivated.
Second, he is young and has never seen much of the world, and the company is very easy to manage.
The third is that the age is young, the professional life is still very long, the company has worked hard and spent a lot of money to cultivate it for many years, not only the capital can be recovered, but also in its long career to find the opportunity to make a lot of money!
And Jiang Kan showed his singing talent at the age of forty.
A good voice is indeed very good, and it has even reached a level close to perfection, which is better than most of the singers in Radiance Entertainment.
But what's the point?
Praise a "newcomer" of such an age, even if he has different talents, he doesn't need to do the first training can be skipped.
Even if he has experienced the beating of society, he has a pure character and a docile character, and there is no situation that is difficult to manage.
But it was this third point that also killed the company's desire to sign him as a singer.
is forty years old, even if he can start to be popular now, how many years can he be popular?
Can the company earn back so much training costs, packaging costs, and publicity costs?
No matter how you think about it, it's better to only sign him as a songwriter, after all, the quality of his two songs has been rated as A-level by the company, which is a rare treasure.
And the profession of songwriter does not have to sell his face and face the audience, but it does not depend on how old you are, but you can do a job for a lifetime, and even the older you get, the more popular it is.
Therefore, it is not incomprehensible for Radiant Entertainment to make this choice.
