Chapter 29 This Mr. Wu is Really Harmful (Read More)
At the beginning of seven o'clock in the evening, Lin Bai specifically cleared his throat before dialing out the phone.

After the bell rang a few times, Wu Wen answered the phone: "Mr. Lin, good evening."

"Good evening, Mr. Wu." Lin Bai greeted with a smile, and then cut straight to the point, "Are you still in Yangcheng?"

I can't play with my heart.

There weren't many at first, and I was facing a character like Wu Wen, so playing tricks would only miss the point.

Wu Wen said bluntly: "Do you want to buy me tea or coffee?"

Hearing this, Lin Bai said a little shyly, "Why don't you book a place, Mr. Wu."

Wu Wen didn't hesitate: "Come to the lobby of the hotel. The time is, um...around 08:30."

"Okay okay."

"..."

…………

Lin Bai knows how to take the initiative to ask for advice on this kind of thing.

After all, strictly speaking, he opened up the situation in the artist circle because he took the initiative to ask Li Lanhui for advice.

Before 8 o'clock, Lin Bai had come to the East Tower Building again.

When I went up to the 95th floor, I sat down by the window under the guidance of the waiter in the lobby bar. I sent a WeChat message to Wu Wen to explain the specific location later.

At around 8:20, Wu Wen arrived alone, the same as when she happened to meet downstairs in the East Tower two days ago, without an assistant.

Seeing Wu Wen, Lin Bai smiled and got up and took two steps: "Mr. Wu."

Wu Wen smiled and nodded, "Mr. Lin."

When she was seated, Wu Wen intentionally glanced at the gift box next to the table: "Mr. Lin, don't be so polite."

Lin Bai blushed: "Ah..."

The words 'philosophy of giving gifts' quickly popped up in my mind, and something was obviously wrong this time.

Wu Wen took the initiative to bring up the matter: "Mr. Lin, if you have any doubts, just ask."

Lin Bai didn't dare to be long-winded, and asked bluntly: "I'm going to the stars tomorrow, what do you think I need to pay attention to?"

Wu Wen replied calmly: "Take a good lawyer and confirm your demands in advance. Don't make any concessions. If you can't do it this time, you can wait for the next time."

"Because you haven't fully revealed your talents, the longer you pass, the greater your market value will be."

""On the Qingming Rain" rushed into the top [-] of the hot song list today, and "Maple" also rushed to the bottom of the hot song list."

"If your next song hits the charts, then you won't be too far away from V2, and your status in the world will gradually stabilize."

Speaking of this, Wu Wen took a sip of tea, and continued to speak: "The music creation circle is not that complicated. It basically depends on talent. Even if a top singer sings, if the lyrics and music are not good, they will not be on the hit song list."

"Of course, sometimes there will be extra luck. For example, "Qingming Yushang" can get twice the result with half the effort at this time."

Lin Bai couldn't help nodding, and said repeatedly: "Understood, I understand."

"Any more questions?" Wu Wen glanced at Lin Bai, and saw that he seemed to have more to say.

Lin Bai confessed: "I might want to try to be an actor in the future, what do you think?"

Wu Wen replied straightforwardly: "That's why I didn't sign you on behalf of Song Le."

"You can conquer the music industry with talent, but the film and television industry has no foundation and cannot replace resources. Even if you sign it, you will leave."

"Xingchen is different. First of all, Xingchen is very rich and has its own film and television department. It has a lot of film and television dramas for itself. Secondly, it can connect with domestic theaters, satellite TV, and online video platforms at any time."

"You are not an ordinary newcomer. You can directly replace resources so that you can easily enter the film and television industry to mix roles. If you show your perseverance to lose weight, I believe it should not be difficult to become a second-tier actor."

After saying this, Wu Wen changed the subject and said calmly: "The only thing I can help you with is this experience. I look forward to working with Mr. Lin next time."

This time, Lin Bai did not thank, but said: "I will try my best to come up with a Cantonese song that is just suitable for Teacher Xiaofeng."

Wu Wen frowned slightly, and said meaningfully: "Cantonese songs have a bonus."

The Blue Star Chinese music scene is similar to the Earth Chinese music scene. The same song will be nice in Cantonese, and there are real bonuses in all aspects.

For example, if you sing Mandarin with 80 points, you can easily reach 90 points in Cantonese.

Another example is the ranking of Huale.com.

Wu Wen stretched out her hand: "Then wish us a happy cooperation next time."

"Thank you, Mr. Wu." Lin Bai bowed and thanked.

Wu Wen waved her hand lightly: "You're welcome."

"..."

Although Lin Bai only asked two questions, Wu Wen analyzed Lin Bai's own advantages and so on in detail.

What should be said and what should not be said have been said.

Not only tell Lin Bai how to replace resources, but also remind Lin Bai what kind of resources to replace.

As far as the moment is concerned, Wu Wen has helped Lin Bai more than Li Lanhui in a certain sense.

Let Lin Bai, a novice in the industry, know how to give full play to his own advantages.

How should I put it, it's still the same sentence... trust is a funny kind of affection.

Friendly even more.

In the end, Lin Bai still gave Wu Wen the luxurious small card bag that he bought at the mall on the way here.

The price is four thousand.

Wu Wen didn't shirk, and said again with a smile: "Mr. Lin, don't be so polite next time."

"It's good that you can take the initiative to adapt to the world now, but it doesn't have to be for me."

Knowing that Lin Bai might not understand, Wu Wen said frankly: "I may be richer than you imagined, and I help you out of appreciation."

"It's almost time. I'm going to catch a plane back to Hangzhou."

Lin Bai could only nod his head when he heard this, but he didn't dare to be shy.

Needless to say, Wu Wen is in her thirties, and belongs to the group of orthodox rich women.

In addition, at least Lin Bai does not belong to the group of handsome guys now, the flesh on his stomach has been lost, but the flesh on his face has not.

...............

The next day is the 6th, Wednesday, the first working day after the Ching Ming Festival.

Lin Bai first consulted Lu Man and the others online, then found a professional lawyer according to the recommendation, and then went to Xingchen.

Star Entertainment's branch in Yangcheng is also on Tianhe's side, not too close to the Academy of Arts.

Ten minutes later, Lin Bai and the lawyer walked into the 10th floor of an office building.

This is the administrative office area, which occupies more than 2000 square meters on the first floor, not very big.

Lin Bai soon met Zhang Xinyang in one of the conference rooms.

"teacher LIN."

"boss Zhang."

"..."

After exchanging pleasantries, Zhang Xinyang said with a smile: "Well, Mr. Lin, let's be direct and don't waste any time."

"The condition we can give is: support Mr. Lin to develop singing, acting, screenwriting, director and other artist careers."

"The specific supporting resources shall not be less than 200 million yuan individually, and the total shall not be less than 2000 million yuan."

"Ms. Lin gives us the right to operate 10 songs every year, eight of which are top 10 on the new song list, and two top 30 on the new song list. The authorization period is not less than [-] years, and we get [-]% of the revenue."

"The contract is five years."

The contract is for five years, that is to say, 10 songs that are in the top ten of the new song list. Under normal circumstances, the total income of songs of this level attributable to the songwriters for ten years will not be less than 5000 million.

5000% of 30 is 1500.

40% of the total income of the other 30 top 500 songs in ten years will not be less than [-] million.

Anyway, no matter how it is calculated, Lin Bai will lose a little on paper.

But in fact, unless there is a big hit, Star Entertainment doesn't make much money.

Because Lin Bai may be able to use the 2000 million yuan resource package within a year.

The current 2000 million is definitely more valuable than the 2000 million that can only be received in ten years.

And the copyright is still in Lin Bai's hands. If there are some songs that become classics, he can still make money through licensing ten years later.

The conditions are really generous, and there are no tricks at all.

Lin Bai could sort out the logic, obviously Zhang Xinyang knew that he had asked Wu Wen for advice.

It doesn't make much sense to engage in any routine at this time.

Then, Lin Bai quickly put forward his appeal: "Mr. Zhang, I hope the contract period can be shortened to three years."

Zhang Xinyang was very helpless when he heard it: "Teacher Lin, at least leave some leeway, this President Wu is really harmful!"

Although, in the end, Lin Bai's opinion was used to sign a new contract.

Signed for three years, 30 songs, the resource package is reduced to 1200 million, the song authorization period is five years, and the share ratio for Xingchen is increased to 35%.

As time goes by, Lin Bai will only be able to come up with more and more songs. Even if he sings in the future, he will not be able to sing all of them.

In exchange for his opportunities and resources to enter the career of other artists, this is an operation that maximizes profits.

After all, Lin Bai really doesn't have the ability to fish with bare hands.

On the contrary, even if the new contract is of a replacement nature, there are additional benefits...
-
PS: I have weighed this contract repeatedly, and it should be more logical. After all, the protagonist does not yet have the ability to work alone, and the replacement of resources is reasonable. If you don’t like it, you can scold it. Don’t leave~
