Chapter 130: Chen Qiming, the Heavenly King of China, joins Denis
"Excuse me, miss, are you ......?"
Chen Qiming always felt that the woman in front of him was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember who she was for a while.
"Nice to meet you, I'm Shizuka Shimokawa Kudo!"
The woman smiled and stretched out her hand towards Chen Qiming.
"Hello, Miss Shimokawa!"
Chen Qiming shook hands with her while recalling information about her in his mind.
He said how could it feel familiar.
When he was on Treasure Island before, he had seen her news.
At the beginning of this year, he released a record "Mourning", which sold 1 million copies in Japan and became a household name in Japan.
Just like Chen Qiming's Chinese records can achieve certain results in markets such as Japan when they sell well in the Chinese market.
Shizuka Kudo's record has also achieved certain results in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
Therefore, in June, he also held a concert tour in Hong Kong and the treasure island area.
Chen Qiming remembers that her concert was a few days after him.
"Chen Sang, you are so majestic, the last time I went to Baodao to hold a concert, the scenery was all stolen by you, so I almost didn't even sell out of tickets!"
This woman is a very coquettish person, she was smiling just now, and in an instant, she looked delicate.
"I'm sorry about that!"
Although Chen Qiming was very puzzled why this woman suddenly came up, he was silent on the surface and cooperated with her performance.
The two chatted without a word.
After talking for about five or six minutes, she seemed to feel that the time was ripe, and she finally showed her fox tail.
"Chen Sang, I heard that you are coming to Japan for development?" She asked.
"Yes, it has been confirmed with Warner Japan to release a Japanese album within this year." Chen Qiming glanced at her and said.
"That's amazing! With Chen Sang's talent, you will definitely have a good development after coming to Japan. "She looks like I adore you.
Chen Qiming smiled and didn't pick up.
Shizuka Kudo, who was waiting for Chen Qiming's response, couldn't help frowning slightly when she saw this, and then stopped beating around the bush and asked directly:
"Chen Sang, you came to Japan for development, you shouldn't have signed a brokerage company yet, right?
If you're not Japanese, you may not know that in Japan, a good agency can help artists a lot.
Whether it is dealing with the harassment of some gangsters, or the promotion and image packaging of records, these are inseparable from a good firm. ”
Hearing this, Chen Qiming couldn't help laughing.
It's all said and done, and he still doesn't understand that this woman is also here to be a lobbyist.
It's just that she's too incompetent as a lobbyist.
In terms of friends, she and Chen Qiming only met for the first time, and they are not friends at all.
And when it comes to beauty, this woman has done nothing but to please him with a few words.
That's it, I actually wanted to persuade him to join her company as a lobbyist.
I really thought he had never seen a woman......
However, to be honest, Chen Qiming never imagined that he would be so popular in Japan.
First Sony, then Genesy, and then Shizuka Kudo.
Chen Qiming remembered that when Shizuka Kudo was in the treasure island, it was Polly Jiayin Records that helped her plan various activities.
And Poli Kanon is a record company spun off from Fuji TV in Japan.
From these, Chen Qiming can already analyze which firm Shizuka Kudo represents.
It is the Yanyin office mentioned by Chen Qiming when he bluffed Yasuji Makai no before.
Only this office has a close relationship with Fuji TV, so Shizuka Kudo can make a half-hung beauty.
"Thank you very much, Miss Shimokawa, for your reminder, I will think about it.
Of course, Ms. Shimokawa can also tell your office that if you want to talk about it, you can talk to my agency, Fulong. ”
Saying that, Chen Qiming spread his hands helplessly, "You know, artists are always insincere, my agent is in the hands of Fulong, I just want to do something, and I can't do it at all." ”
What does a brokerage company do?
In addition to dealing with the affairs of the artist.
It's also a good back-pot object.
Chen Qiming can generally push Fulong if he encounters an invitation that is inconvenient to refuse, or if he doesn't want to deal with it.
Anyway, I'm actually an artist with no rights.
The agency has the power of life and death in my hands, and if you want me to help with something, you can go to my agency.
This kind of situation where the brokerage company is behind the black pot must have.
Especially a popular singer like Chen Qiming.
Chen Qiming often meets some peers in the entertainment industry, such as film directors, TV series producers, and even artists who want to prostitute others for nothing.
When encountering these people, if there is no brokerage company as a black pot, Chen Qiming is really difficult to deal with.
agree, there is a chance that it will harm your own interests, such as the opposite film is a bad movie, etc.
If you don't agree, you will offend people.
Therefore, it is the best way to let Fulong take the blame.
If you have the ability to give money, then Fulong Company will definitely not refuse to cooperate with you, and everyone will be happy.
But if you can't afford to pay the price, it will be Fulong who rejects you, not me Chen Qiming.
Well, these are all what Liu Ciwei taught Chen Qiming.
The main reason is because he agreed to star in "Green Snake" last time.
Because this film collided with a big production that Fulong was going to take over for Chen Qiming.
Well, that drama is called "The Legend of Modern Heroes", directed by Johnny To, who has slightly won the top ten positions in the box office list in Hong Kong in recent years, and invited Anita Mui, Maggie Cheung, Michelle Yeoh and others.
Fulong agreed that the prospects of this play would be better than Tsui Hark's "Green Snake", so he was very dissatisfied with Chen Qiming's unauthorized reception of Tsui Hark's play.
But dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction, after Chen Qiming's sincere apology and said that there will be no more next time, they sent another general of the company, Takeshi Kaneshiro, to replace him.
And Liu Ciwei taught Chen Qiming this set of words to reject people.
"I know, but I believe that Chen Sang, you can't have a little right to speak."
Shizuka Kudo apparently didn't quite believe Chen's words.
Also, with Chen Qiming's popularity, it would be a bit stupid to believe that he doesn't have a little say in the brokerage company.
"Chen Sang, we Yanyin are really sincere, as long as you agree to join Yanyin......"
Kudo Shizuka said, and took the initiative to get closer to Chen Qiming, looking like I was yours.
on this.
Chen Qiming didn't believe it.
He wants to believe this today, and he won't play in this business in the future.
I really thought that small Japanese companies were all about doing good deeds.
Let's not talk about whether Shizuka Kudo is willing to have a Spring Festival with Chen Qiming.
Even if he was willing, Chen Qiming didn't dare.
Who can guarantee that he will not be blackmailed with this after Yanyin?
Therefore, Chen Qiming was unmoved at all, and stood up directly, and said with a smile:
"I believe you are sincere, and I hope we have the opportunity to work together."
After saying that, he walked away quickly.
His meaning is very clear, that is, you go to Fulong, and Fulong agrees with me.
"What happened to that woman just now? Don't mess around in Japan, this is not our territory, there are some things we can't handle. ”
Chen Qiming had just left, and Li Xiaowen, who had gone to the banquet to socialize with people, came over and reminded him.
"Yanyin Agency, want me to take the initiative to find a company to make an appointment with them."
Chen Qiming said as he walked.
After a pause, Chen Qiming said: "If you release the news, you will say that Yanyin is also contacting me, which will add some pressure to Genesys and let the company take more initiative." ”
After saying that, he couldn't help but smile, "To be honest, even I didn't expect that I would be so popular in Japan." ”
"You underestimate yourself too much, you are now the most popular singer in the Chinese music scene, although Japan is not your territory.
But here, there are a lot of people listening to your songs.
And ......"
Li Xiaowen glanced at Koji Makaino, who was talking to someone not far away, "Moreover, it seems that Yasuji Makai has passed on the fact that you have composed a few good Japanese songs yourself." ”
Hearing this, Chen Qiming was stunned, frowned, and said, "He leaked the song?" ”
Currently, Chen Qiming is still producing accompaniment for his Japanese albums, although he has registered the songs with the Japanese Copyright Society.
But if the song is leaked, it will also cause some unnecessary trouble.
It's like there's scum everywhere.
There is also no shortage of plagiarists in Japan.
And, quite a few.
If Yasuji Makai really leaked his songs to others.
Chen Qiming felt that there was no need for him to continue to be the producer of this record.
Li Xiaowen shook his head:
"No, how dare he, Warner Japan is not a soft persimmon, if he dares to leak it, he may sink into the sea tomorrow.
He said in person when he was interviewing and talking to people, saying that a few of your Japanese songs are very good, and you may become another successful Chinese singer in the Japanese music scene. ”
"That's it!" Chen Qiming nodded.
He said that with years of experience in the circle like Yasuji Mabino, he shouldn't be so stupid.
Co-authored, I misunderstood others.
……
The next day, Liu Ciwei flew from Treasure Island to Japan.
As soon as he came, Chen Qiming asked Yasuji Makai to contact the Genesys office.
The two parties made an appointment to meet in a café to negotiate Chen Qiming's Japanese brokerage contract.
Because after all, this is a matter related to his own development in Japan, so Chen Qiming also followed.
"Mr. Liu, welcome to Japan."
"Mr. Chen Qiming, it's really good to meet you, I like your song very much, I have heard that "Fairy Tale" many times.
I would like to become the angel you love in fairy tales......
The lyrics are brilliantly written. ”
As soon as they met, the president of Genesys & Associates greeted them warmly.
As for the president of the Genesys office to come out to talk in person, Liu Ciwei saw a certain sincerity of the other party, so in the following conversation, he did not appear too aggressive.
The negotiations between the two sides went smoothly.
Fulong wanted Genesys to help promote Chen Qiming in Japan.
Genesys valued Chen Qiming's influence in the Asian Chinese music scene, and wanted to add another big general to the company.
The two parties hit it off, and in just two hours, the specific details of the cooperation were finalized.
The parties agreed that Fulong would hand over Chen Qiming's Japanese agency rights to Genesys Firm, which would be responsible for all Chen Qiming's other activities in Japan except for Chinese records.
The proceeds of these activities, except for Chen Qiming's share, are divided equally between Fulong and Genesys.
Originally, according to the contract between Chen Qiming and Fulong Company, Fulong Company could only get 20% of Chen Qiming's brokerage commission.
However, considering that after the addition of Genesys & Associates, it is not appropriate for the two companies to be divided into two percent.
In addition, Chen Qiming is about to make a re-debut in Japan, and his popularity and influence are not as good as in China.
Therefore, Chen Qiming was forced to give up Yicheng.
Chen Qiming didn't want to let it either.
But there is no way, what status matches what kind of contract.
In Japan, where Chen Qiming's own influence is almost a little bit, he can continue to get seventy percent, which is already the reason for his high popularity in Chinese-speaking areas.
If you don't let it out, Fulong alone will obviously not be enough to successfully build Chen Qiming into a first-line in Japan.
Therefore, this success was given up by Chen Qiming on his own initiative.
Of course, the contract between the two parties also divides some business that does not share with Genesys.
For example, records.
Chen Qiming's Japanese record is a collaboration between Fulong and Warner.
Although it may be made in Japan when it is made.
But the production name is still Fulong Records.
In addition, Futaka is almost entirely responsible for the production of Japanese records, the costs, the hiring of producers, and the purchase of songs.
It is impossible for Fulong to let Genesys get involved in Chen Qiming's record income at this time.
Therefore, in general, although Genesys will be responsible for most of Chen Qiming's affairs in Japan, their income mainly comes from Chen Qiming's endorsements and commercial performances in Japan.
And while receiving a share of these revenues, Genesys & Associates naturally needs to pay a corresponding price.
First of all, when Chen Qiming's debut album in Japan was released, Genesys had to help provide a debut plan.
Even, they need to provide resources and channels to promote Chen Qiming.
Regarding Fulong's proposal, Chen Qiming originally thought that Kitagawa would refuse.
But what he didn't expect was that Kitagawa readily agreed.
It's as if he thinks that Chen Qiming's record will be a success, or that Chen Qiming will make money for them in Japan.
Genesys moved quickly, and the day after negotiating the cooperation, they signed all the contracts with Liu Ciwei.
and soon announced in a high-profile manner that Chen Qiming officially joined Dennis.
"Chinese King Chen Qiming Joins Genesys & Firms"
"Genesys Firm Adds Another General, Chinese Superstar Chen Qiming Joins"
"Kitagawa: "Chen Qiming's joining will be another leap forward for Genesys"
"Introduction to Chen Qiming, the annual record holder of Chinese record sales"
The influence of Genesys in Japan was completely displayed in front of Chen Qiming and Liu Ciwei in just one day.
This report has been published by a number of authoritative magazines in Japan.
At the same time, under the instructions of Janiss, some tabloids almost didn't blow Chen Qiming into the sky.
"China's version of Koji Tamaki"
"China's version of Masahiko Kondo"
"China's No. 1 Superstar"
"The Enemy of Michael Jackson's Life"
All kinds of names that made Chen Qiming ashamed of him were all pressed on him.
People are curious.
Chinese have never heard of Michael Jackson, but when they hear his title of the world's number one pop king, they will inevitably be curious about him.
It's the same in Japan.
With the blessing of many celebrities, bombarded by newspapers and magazines, in just a few days, countless people throughout Japan knew that there was a Chinese king named Chen Qiming who joined Genesys & Associates.
Then start to get to know him.
Under the coercion of this huge popularity, Chen Qiming's "Too Soft Heart" and "Fairy Tale" actually ushered in a wave of small explosions in Japan again.
