Chapter 219: A Different Way
Good holidays always pass quickly, and when Jiang Kan put his parents on the bus home, he suddenly realized that it was already the evening of March 3.
Although the second elder is very happy to be with his son, after all, it is not in his hometown, and old friends and neighbors always feel very lonely and bored when they are not around.
So after Jiang Kan repeatedly persuaded them to stay for a few days to no avail, he still respected their wishes and let them go home.
"Ha, there's still four days of vacation, how do you spend it?"
"Jingle Bell~"
As soon as he got home, he was stretching on the sofa when the phone rang on the coffee table.
"Xiao Zhang, have a good New Year~"
It turned out to be Zhang Lingling's call, but what happened when she called at this time?
"Brother Kan, Happy New Year~"
Xiao Zhang's voice on the phone was very energetic, it seemed that he had just received a large year-end bonus, so he had a good year, and his happy mood was about to overflow from the phone.
In other words, Jiang Kan's year-end bonus this year is also very good, and he took almost 600,000 yuan inside and out (mainly as a composer and lyricist, and the singer mainly takes a song's dividend), which is already more than when he was a supervisor in T company, which can't help but make him sigh that being a star is really profitable!
"Is there something wrong with this call? I know that the recording of "Good Singer" only started on the 10th, so it's completely too late to rehearse when the 8th goes to work, right?"
Jiang Kan thought she was talking about this show, so he asked.
"It's not about this, it's Boss Zhou who called to ask, the last time you told him about the cooperation agreement, when will it be convenient for you to sign the agreement!"
"Oh, that's it! I almost forgot if you didn't say it!"
Jiang Kan took the phone and said suddenly.
The two proposals given by Boss Zhou before (see Chapter 154 for details), Jiang Kan felt that they were not particularly suitable.
The first plan, he took advantage of Lao Zhou too much, and Jiang Kan felt that he couldn't get over it with his conscience.
In the second plan, the Winter Rain Band signed a contract with Feiyang Entertainment as a whole and became their queen songwriter, so they suffered too much and could only get 5% to 10% of the songwriting share.
So after some synthesis, Jiang Kan and Zhang Lingling decided after discussion that they could join the Winter Rain Band as a "special guest singer", and the specific cooperation methods are as follows:
1. Usually play your own and don't interfere with each other.
2. If Jiang Kan has a song that is suitable for the band's performance form, he will designate the Winter Rain Band as a partner and let them accompany and appear on the camera for this song.
3. The copyright of the song belongs to Jiang Kan, and he received 60% of the revenue share, and at the same time accepted a 10% equity gift from Boss Zhou's Dongyu Band, officially becoming one of the shareholders of this band with infinite potential.
4. Boss Zhou is responsible for the national distribution of the song, and the expenses are paid from the 40% revenue share he receives.
There are many benefits to doing this, and both parties get what they need.
Jiang Kan's income is definitely the largest, after all, he mainly invests in his own songs.
On the one hand, he can get the income and copyright of the song, and on the other hand, he can also get the friendship of Boss Zhou - his troubles before were settled by Lao Zhou.
Don't underestimate this, a singer is a profession with strong social attributes, and it is very necessary to have such a help, at least to ensure that he will not be hacked by his peers or others for no apparent reason.
Lao Zhou's side can make a wave of fame while being addicted to a band - he has actually earned enough money in his life, and the rest of his life wants to play the band and rock that he has been thinking about for decades and fulfill his music dream.
"Okay, I'll sign a contract early tomorrow morning, let's be in our company, and then we can start rehearsing the next song, and I just happen to have a song here that suits the band."
Jiang Kan replied
Remembering the content of the agreement, he replied to Zhang Lingling with a smile and easily.
Early the next morning, Jiang Kan got up early in the morning, and it only took half an hour to drive the car to complete the road that usually takes more than an hour to complete, and came to the company.
Then I put the frozen big meat buns left by my mother in the microwave oven in the pantry, poured myself a cup of coffee, and ate it beautifully in the empty office, without worrying about the smell of the buns disturbing anyone.
"Hey, Brother Kan, is you in such a good mood?"
Zhang Lingling walked in with a cup of coffee and saw Jiang Kan leisurely eating steamed buns.
"Yes, the harvest in February is so big, it's already the kind of good that I didn't expect when I first entered the industry, how can I not be happy?"
He gestured to the March New Songs chart on the screen.
"Also, look at the "Old Boy" we posted in the early morning of the first day, and now it has only been three days and has already ranked fifteenth, which means that I am already a big star with many loyal fans, hahahaha!"
That's right, the new song released by Jiang Kan in March is the song "Old Boy" that made him cry.
When Lao Yang first heard this song, he was in a daze!
Then a person closed the door of the small office, and it took a long time to come out, his eyes were red, and he didn't know if he had also cried.
Zhang Lingling may not be of age, or maybe she can't empathize with the life of middle-aged men, and she is not very touched by the lyrics of this song, but she still gives a thumbs up to the quality of this song.
At the beginning, it came to the fifteenth place, which is much better than the thirty-eighth place at the beginning of last month.
At nine o'clock, Boss Zhou came to the company on time and sat in the conference room with Jiang Kan and Zhang Lingling.
The three of them amicably signed a contract that had already been reviewed by Zhang Lingling, and since then, Jiang Kan has also become a shareholder and "guest singer" of the Winter Rain Band. c
"Brother Jiang, it's not easy to cooperate with you......
After Boss Zhou signed his name on the contract, he shook his head with emotion and laughed, and then stretched out his big furry hand.
"Hehe, Boss Zhou, you are so bold this time, you won't regret it, you will know after listening to this new song I wrote in a while."
Jiang Kan also put on the cap of the fountain pen after signing, stretched out his hand and held it with the other party.
"Oh? Brother Jiang already has a new song?"
Boss Zhou raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise.
"Of course, as a partner, I will definitely surprise you!"
Jiang Kan stood up, made a "please" gesture, and took Boss Zhou to his workstation.
Then he put the headphones he had plugged into the computer on Lao Zhou's head and clicked the play button of the music player on the screen.
A melodious piano sound sounded in his ears, like a cry, and instantly made him quiet and listened attentively.
"The drizzle brings wind and dampness through the streets at dusk
Wipe away the rain and look up for no reason
Look at the lonely evening light
It's that sad memory
」
Boss Zhou's mood was instantly touched by this soft male voice, and he quickly sketched in his mind the blurry scene of himself standing alone in the slanting wind and drizzle, his hair was already soaked, and the rain flowed down the tip of his hair and blurred his eyes.
