Chapter 200: Betrayal
Wang Ting heard Meng Wen say that this song is not simple, and she wanted to listen to Meng Wen's next explanation. Who knew that Meng Wen suddenly stopped talking when he said this, and fiddled with his mobile phone by himself.
Wang Ting knew that Meng Wen was deliberately angry with herself, but she still couldn't help but get angry.
Xun Hanlei saw that the two of them were starting to talk again, and she really didn't know what to say, this was originally a good thing, but how did it develop to the point of confrontation with each other. Xun Hanlei can also be regarded as seeing that these two people are sincere to each other, so they won't talk well.
Seeing the stalemate between the two, Xun Hanlei had the heart to ignore the two, but seeing Wang Ting's angry look on her face, she couldn't bear it anymore. It's all self-inflicted, Xun Hanlei thought in her heart, but said to Meng Wen: "Don't stretch out everyone, or don't say it, if you want to say it, you can finish it." What do you mean by saying half and half left?"
Meng Wen saw that Xun Hanlei had interjected, and if he didn't say anything else, it would have caused public outrage, so he said: "Although there is spring in my "Spring", I didn't write it to praise spring. Spring is the season of revival of all things, and this song "In Spring" is a green color that spreads all over the mountains to reflect the anxiety and anxiety about life. Isn't there such a sentence, the deepest despair is the same as the spring grass, uncontrollable. It is the truest portrayal of this song, confused, numb, sad and desperate......"
"Such a good spring, so gloomy by what you wrote. Wang Ting muttered unwillingly.
"I wrote it myself, and I'd love to. Meng Wen said proudly.
Wang Ting looked at Meng Wen's smug appearance, and couldn't help but sarcastically: "I think you're like a song, it's quite normal to watch, and I don't know how dark it is inside." ”
"I don't see the same as an ungrateful little woman. Meng Wen walked back to his room without looking back.
Meng Wen went back to the room, took a picture of the "Ocean of Men" written with Zhou Haoda last night, and sent it directly to Zhou Haoda.
Meng Wen called Zhou Haoda again, and the two did not talk after the last time "My Heart is Too Messy". That's because Meng Wen really put a lot of effort into writing last time, and I felt that "My Heart is Too Messy" was written more perfectly.
And this time "Man Ocean" is a little different from last time, when Meng Wen wrote it last night, he was already out of state just halfway through writing, and then although he barely finished writing the whole song, many details of the transposition are not perfect, but the general framework is written, there is no problem with cappella, and they still need to polish it themselves as an album song.
Meng Wen didn't finish the song in one go last night, and now he doesn't have the heart to help him improve it, this call is mainly to explain the situation to Zhou Haoda, so that Zhou Haoda can change it according to his own intentions, and it is best to suit him.
Meng Wen talked to Zhou Haoda about the situation of this song, and Zhou Haoda also expressed his understanding and gratitude.
After talking about the song, Meng Wen heard that Zhou Haoda hadn't hung up the phone yet, and couldn't help asking, "Do you have anything else?"
Zhou Haoda snorted for a long time before he said: "It's the price of the song last time, and the company wants to buy it out completely." ”
"Completely bought out?" Meng Wen was silent for a moment, in fact, Meng Wen wanted the online copyright of this song more, and Meng Wen didn't know about the physical sales of the album, and he didn't want to participate in it. After all, there are no professionals in this area on their side, even if they want to share, it is too simple for people to fool themselves, and there is a lot of room for maneuver when it comes to publicity costs.
But the network copyright is different, and you can basically estimate the amount of downloads of crooked dog music as long as you stare at it. And perhaps it is the network environment in this world that gives Meng Wen a lot of confidence, and Meng Wen himself also finds that he is particularly dependent on the Internet and believes in the Internet.
But now that Zhou Haoda has spoken, he can't help but give Zhou Haoda this face, originally he just wanted to get a share of the network copyright, so if he doesn't want it, he won't want it. Meng Wen thought about it for a while, and then said: "Okay, Da Ge has spoken, I can't help but give face." By the way, did your company say the price?"
"The price given by the company is relatively low. I also fought for you, and in the end the company could only give 500,000. Zhou Haoda was also a little embarrassed and felt a little indebted to Meng Wen. But Jiang Mei had to tell Meng Wen herself, for fear that she would say that Meng Wen would not agree. Later, Director Liang Da came forward to do work for Zhou Haoda, after all, Zhou Haoda can save at least hundreds of thousands of dollars for a noodle company. The two songs add up to 1.8 million.
After Director Liang repeatedly promised that he would increase his publicity, Zhou Haoda was a little tempted and agreed to try it. After all, for a new signing, the company is very important to your promotional packaging. And the director talked to himself personally, he really wanted to refuse, offended the director, and he would have to stay in the company for 5 years in the future, even if the director did not have the right to hide himself for no reason, but it was easy to make trouble for himself.
A signed artist, if he doesn't have the strong support of the brokerage company, he basically can't get along in the entertainment industry. Zhou Haoda was full of guilt in front of his future and Meng Wen's interests, but finally chose the former.
And when Meng Wen heard this price, he immediately felt uncomfortable, at that time he negotiated with his agent Jiang Meike in Zhou Haoda's company, because there was an episode of Liu Qian buying songs from him for millions at the crooked dog music awards ceremony, Jiang Meike patted her chest and promised that as long as the songs she wrote were good, they would also give 1 million. And this is still a case of copyright co-ownership.
Now the Huayu brothers want to send themselves away just by giving themselves 500,000 yuan, and they are still thinking about buying out the copyright completely. To be honest, Meng Wen's impression of Jiang Mei and their company may be because of Zhou Haoda's relationship, but it has always been good. But now Meng Wen's impression of the Huayu brothers in his heart has instantly fallen to the bottom.
"What do you think?" Although he felt a little uncomfortable, Meng Wen still restrained his feelings for Zhou Haoda.
Zhou Haoda thought of the company's director's advice, although he felt that he couldn't stand Meng Wen for saying this, but thinking of his future, he still said: "I feel that this price is not bad, and those who write songs in our company can get 180,000 yuan." ”
After listening to Zhou Haoda's words, Meng Wen was not only disappointed in the Huayu brothers and Jiang Mei, but also completely disappointed in Zhou Haoda and Meng Wen. Zhou Haoda didn't fight for a reasonable benefit for himself, and he didn't blame him, after all, he was just a new artist in the company, and he didn't have so much power. But now he knows that it is unfair for him to do this, and he even persuades himself with such a lame reason.
Meng Wen can't help but be disappointed, it seems that Zhou Haoda is no longer the original one, Zhou Haoda who can stand up for himself who he never knew, and now Zhou Haoda has been carried away by the fame and fortune in the entertainment industry, and he is bent on getting ahead. If this matter was left before Zhou Haoda became famous, Meng Wen believed that Zhou Haoda would never take the initiative to persuade him, he would rather not sing than exchange the interests of his friends.
But now Meng Wen doesn't have to guess to know that the company must have promised Zhou Haoda something, and Zhou Haoda will talk to him in person. Otherwise, this job should have been negotiated with her agent Jiang Mei. In other words, Zhou Haoda exchanged his own interests for his future.
"Okay, I don't have anything to say if you feel right. I've handed over these two songs to you, the task is complete, and I'm relaxed. Two songs are 1 million, go back and put the money on my card, do you still have my card number?" Although Meng Wen was very disappointed in Zhou Haoda, he gave the song and gave it, and it was impossible to come back, how can I say that Zhou Haoda saved himself once, so this time I should repay the favor. In the future, it will be clear, Meng Wen thought secretly.
"Yes, I will do my best to urge Sister Jiang to call you for the money from "My Heart is Too Messy". But the money for this new song may not be given immediately, and it is estimated that I will have to wait until I finish recording it and the company will evaluate it before it can approve the money. Zhou Haoda said embarrassedly.
Meng Wen listened to Zhou Haoda's words, Huoteng came up, and he didn't care about any feelings, and said loudly: "You Huayu brothers really take me as the wronged leader, isn't it that if the company's assessment fails, you can't even give 500,000 yuan?" Let's not talk about your company, I call you Brother Shengda, what do you mean?"
Zhou Haoda saw that Meng Wen on the other end of the phone was a little angry, and he didn't know what to say. I wanted to give the money to Meng Wen immediately, but I didn't have the right to do it, and I also said at the time that I would give money for the quality of the songs. Zhou Haoda thought of this, but he still complained a little that Meng Wen was a little arrogant and aggressive, and he didn't think that his company had promised to give 1 million to see the quality before, didn't he also fail to cash in?
This is also a common problem for many people, once they suddenly succeed, their mentality will change a lot, and they will be self-inflated, and they often can't listen to their advice. And the little jealousy hidden in Zhou Haoda's heart is also slowly sprouting and growing up with the change of his mentality, which is irrepressible.
In the face of Meng Wen's questioning, Zhou Haoda's previous guilt was slowly news, and Meng Wen became his business partner, saying: "Meng Wen, the company also has a company
