Chapter 55 Signing the contract, Baihua first met Dou Daxian
Mr. Li said with a smile: "Mr. Yu, I hope you will record the song as soon as possible, and we will arrange someone to burn and be responsible for the song chart." ”
Yu Yi smiled: "Yes, but I hope to only sign a three-year contract, and then consider renewing the contract if the cooperation between the two parties is happy in the later stage, after all, I think it will be another scene at that time, and I plan to act in the future, and the singing time should not be too long, I don't know what Mr. Li thinks?" ”
Mr. Li pondered for a while and said: "Yes, but the publicity and distribution costs we have invested will also be appropriately reduced, after all, the company is not charitable, I hope you can understand,
As for the share between us, it can also change with the sales of Mr. Yu's albums. ”
Yu Yi smiled confidently: "No problem, I believe in the quality of my songs, and I also believe in my own ability." ”
Mr. Li laughed and said: "Okay, I just like the vitality of young people, I don't know if I can take a look at the songs selected by your album, which is related to our future cooperation." ”
Yu Yi smiled: "Naturally, you can." Then he took out a few pieces of paper full of songs from Chen Hong's bag on the side.
Mr. Li took a deep look at Yu Yi, he was now more sure of certain things, but it had nothing to do with him, he just had to do his own thing.
Mr. Li carefully watched "Little Dimples", "Has Anyone Told You", "Red Dust Love Song", "Sudden Self", "When", "Faith", "Soul", "Have to Love", "No Makeup", "Sunny Day".
After pondering for a moment, he said: "The best songs in this should be the two songs "Sudden Self" and "Faith", which have the potential to be a big hit, and it is not impossible to even become a phenomenal song.
The remaining songs are not bad, even better than the title songs of some albums, if your future album songs have the current level, I believe your achievements will not be worse than the king and queen,
In addition, you can shoot some MVs appropriately, after all, this thing can make more money than tapes, a genuine tape on the market is 10 yuan, a CD is 50, and the specific figure is to figure it out by yourself, and the production fee can be discussed. ”
Yu Yi thought for a while and asked, "Mr. Li, I don't know if there is a fixed ratio between the tapes and CDs sold by the album?" ”
Mr. Li smiled bitterly: "How can there be such a good thing? The CDs in those kings and queens are at most ten to one, but there are special circumstances.
For example, for your "Love" album, the disc sells basically like a cassette tape, but this is just an example, and it is generally impossible. ”
Yu Yi smiled: "How many burns did Mr. Li roughly plan for my album?" ”
Mr. Li pondered for a while and said: "Your previous two albums have bought a total of 10 million copies in the past few years, which is very good, this album does not seek such high sales.
It's not as good as before, but there should be no problem with a million sales, and the disc will be burned according to 100,000. ”
Yu Yi thought for a while and felt that there was no problem, and after finalizing the details, Zhang San discussed the details of the contract with Sony's lawyer, and the contract between Yu Yi and Sony was signed.
After Mr. Li left, Chen Hong pinched Yu Yi's shoulder and said, "Isn't the signing time a bit long?" ”
Yu Yi shook his head and smiled: "It's not very long, we don't lack money, what we lack is publicity channels, what we lack is time,
When the album sales come up and it has a certain reputation, it will be unrealistic to take over the production work and slowly eat away. ”
Chen Hong said with a smile: "Using other people's channels to do their own things, a good idea, they can also make a lot of money, but little man, should you consider signing your own company?" ”
Yu Yi held Chen Hong's little hand and said with a smile: "What Mr. Chen said is, then sign for a hundred years, work for Mr. Chen for the rest of my life, and let the rich woman support me for a lifetime." ”
Chen Hong covered his mouth and smiled: "That's fine, but I'm afraid our company won't be able to hold that meeting." ”
Yu Yi laughed and said, "After I die, who cares if it floods?" ”
Yu Yi signed the first artist contract of Shuguang Company, with a sharing ratio of 8 to 2, and Yu Yi 8, which can be terminated at any time without any age limit.
Looking at this contract, Yu Yi smiled and said, "Mrs. Chen, I will eat your soft rice in the future." ”
Chen Hong chuckled and said, "Okay, okay, as long as you want to eat, my sister will have it at any time." ”
Yu Yi asked with a smile, "Why did you become like this?" I remember that you used to be very simple, but now you can open your mouth to talk about meat. ”
Chen Hong glanced at Yu Yi and said, "I didn't learn from you, my sister can't learn a little bit by herself for so many years?" Alright, let's go over and record the song early. ”
In the afternoon of the same day, the two drove Daben to Baihua Hutong again.
Yu Yi looked at the mottled wall with some nostalgia, he had been here once before, but that time the memory was not very deep.
The two walked into the depths of Baihua Hutong hand in hand, and saw a small two-story building that was not very large, with a sign of Baihua Video Studio hanging on it.
This recording studio is known as one of the top recording studios in Asia, and many of the most popular singers of this era have recorded songs here.
When the two walked into the studio, someone stepped forward and asked, "Are you two here to record?" Are there any familiar producers in charge? ”
Yu Yi shook his head and smiled: "We plan to record an album, you guys contact your people." ”
After a while, a man with long hair and a very artistic sense appeared in front of the two of them, and this man smiled and said, "Do you want to make it all or just record the songs?" ”
Chen Hong frowned and asked, "Is there a difference?" ”
The man smiled: "The difference is big, the early song collection, demo confirmation, arrangement, tape, instrumentalization, dubbing, harmony, mixing, mastering, and then it is to record the MV or burn it directly." ”
Yu Yi thought for a while and said: "This is the first time we have officially recorded, I hope you can contact a professional producer to help us deal with it, and we can negotiate the specific cost." ”
The man laughed and said, "Okay, I'll help you get in touch, and the two of you will sit in first." ”
Yu Yi and the two sat in the pantry and waited for someone, and after changing the tea a few times, the artistic man arrived with a man with a white face and short hair.
The artist man introduced: "This is Dou Daxian, you should have heard his name, he is also a professional producer." ”
Yu Yi and the others have indeed heard of Dou Daxian's name, after all, the popularity of "No Land for Self-Respect" is still very high.
Dou Daxian said lightly: "Hello, I'm Dou Wei, what style of your songs are?" ”
Yu Yi looked at the top of his head fixedly, curious about how this guy would be bald in the future, and even more curious about the things in Fengfei's big family.
Yu Yi smiled: "Love song, I have released two albums before, I didn't know these processes before, this time I plan to do better,
But I've heard your songs, most of them are rock and roll, do you make love songs? ”
