Perfect Life
Chapter 36: confidence
Liao Liao did things very aggressively. After negotiating the price, she signed the check on the spot.
When she and Qi Jie and the others went downstairs, Li Qian lit a cigarette, took the check in his hand, and watched while smoking. When he finished smoking, he folded the check and put it in the guitar case.
He knew that he would definitely be successful in the future, and he even made plans for it step by step, but he never thought that there would be such an accidental opportunity that made him embark on this road so quickly.
Surprise?
Of course surprise.
Even in his previous life, he spent a few months in a production crew, and the most he could get was 600,000 yuan. You know, at that time, he was the assistant director and the fourth male lead. The two jobs were combined. 600,000 yuan, and he was paid three times. When the crew was finished, he only got 350,000 yuan.
And now, with five songs, it's easily 400,000 yuan, and it's just a cash check!
Moreover, as far as Li Qian knows, the exchange rate between the US dollar and the Chinese dollar in this time and space has always fluctuated around 1:2. The exchange rate of 1:6 later in that lifetime was also 1.2 million!
Of course, money is still a trivial matter. Selling 400,000 yuan is still 40,000 yuan, or even only 4,000 yuan. Although the price difference is huge, in essence, there is no difference.
Because the more important meaning of this matter is: I got a chance!
An opportunity to make one's own works appear in front of the public, in front of record companies, in front of various producers and music critics!
And opportunities are always priceless!
Although he forced himself to suppress his inner joy, took a while to adjust his mood, and even took an exception to smoke three cigarettes in half an hour, Li Qian only played a few songs and put down the guitar.
Even though he has lived in two lifetimes, he has never been successful in the true sense.
Therefore, he had no way to restrain his inner ecstasy at all.
So he lit another cigarette, leaned on the protective wall and slowly finished smoking, then packed up and went straight home.
Today is the weekend, and Mom and Dad are all at home.
When Li Qian got home, he put down the guitar case first, and without waiting for his parents to ask, he took out the check, unfolded it, stretched it out, put it on the coffee table, and said, "Dad, Mom, I just earned 400,000 yuan."
Dad Li was sitting on the sofa reading a book. Hearing this, he raised his head and looked at him, frowning and looking puzzled.
Li Ma was cleaning up the toilet, and she came out to take a look when she heard the door slamming. Hearing that, she also looked at him with a puzzled expression, "This child, what's going on?"
Then, Dad Li put down the book, looked up at Li Qian, and reached out to pick up the check.
…………
After getting in the car, Qi Jie took Liao Liao to a musical instrument store, and the three of them went in and bought a guitar, and then drove back to the hotel.
Along the way, even when buying a guitar, Liao Liao looked absent-minded. In her eyes, there were only songs, songs, songs.
Those sheets of paper were almost drained by her!
When the car arrived at the hotel, the assistant held a guitar, Qi Jie went to park the car, and Liao Liao ran to the room.
Go back to the room, take out the guitar, tune the strings, audition, and then... start working!
But suddenly, she stopped again.
Qi Jie just opened the door and came in. Seeing her stunned there, she was very puzzled and asked, "What's the matter with you? I didn't look very anxious just now. I bought this guitar and went back to the hotel, why did I send it again? Stayed up?"
Liao Liao thought for a while and said, "Baby, I suddenly felt that I might have done something wrong."
Qi Jie was puzzled and asked, "What's the matter?"
Liao Liao put down the guitar a little depressed, thought about it, and said, "I think Li Qian may have misunderstood me!" After a pause, she said, "I mean, the last two conditions I mentioned, It's just a matter of buying songs in the future."
Qi Jie was even more confused when she heard this, and said, "What's the matter? Why do you say you're afraid he will misunderstand?"
Liao Liao stood up a little fidgety, sat down again, looked at Qi Jie and Huang Wenjuan, and asked: "Tell me, if it's you, a newcomer, suddenly someone wants to buy your song, give you a high price, a high price, and then like I mentioned those two conditions like that, do you think it is the overlord clause, will you feel like you have signed a contract of prostitution?"
The two voices sounded almost simultaneously.
Huang Wenjuan said, "Of course not!"
Qi Jie said, "Of course I will!"
Liao Liao was stunned for a moment, then pointed at Huang Wenjuan, "You say it first, why not?"
Huang Wenjuan looked at Liao Liao and Qi Jie in confusion, "The price of a song for a newcomer usually ranges from one or two thousand yuan to one or two thousand yuan, and even a few hundred yuan is sold. It also depends on whether anyone buys it. No matter how good his Li Qian’s song is, let’s call it 80,000 in one go. This price is not too low for a famous family! If the song he sold to us is not popular, Then we may not ask him to buy songs in the future, the so-called overlord clause... I guess he wants us to implement it seriously! Even if the song is popular, his songs are starting to be valuable, and the price of 80,000 is definitely not low. Moreover, we are helping him raise the price! His songs are popular, and it’s not good for others to buy songs from him, right? He only appreciates it, how can he still be dissatisfied?”
Liao Liao nodded straight, waved his arms, and said, "Go on."
When Huang Wenjuan saw this, her emotions became more and more full, "In other words, if we don't buy his songs, what is he? How long will it take for the first person to buy his songs to appear? Even if there is a record If the company wants to buy one of his songs, it will definitely not say that buying one is a song. It must sign a creative agreement! He is not a big name!"
"To be honest, without his songs, our album might lose its color and sell less? But not necessarily! Even if it really loses color and sells less, Liao Liao is still a singer who has released an album! What about him? If we don't buy his songs, he will have to climb step by step even to enter the industry!...I'm right, sister?"
Liao Liao nodded, but then turned to look at Qi Jie, "Baby, tell me again, why do you think he has the feeling that he has signed a prostitution contract?"
Qi Jie was stunned.
Although Huang Wenjuan spoke quickly, she understood the logical relationship here immediately. She had to say that although it was awkward, she really felt that it was quite reasonable. So at this time, when Liao Liao turned to ask herself, she hesitated again and said after a while: "Because... because you not only stipulated that I have to sell songs to you, but also fixed the price, then if I later It's even more popular? What if people buy my songs and they have to pay 200,000 to 300,000 yuan? I won't lose big money?"
As soon as she said these words, Huang Wenjuan couldn't help but retort: "Two or three thousand one song? Only ten people in the whole country dare to ask for this price!"
Liao Liao waved his hand to signal her to shut up, then pointed at Qi Jie and said, "Look, look, I guessed right! I dare say that Li Qian definitely thinks the same way!"
After speaking, she couldn't sit still at all, got up and walked around the room.
Qi Jie looked at her puzzled, "You mean... you don't think this is the overlord clause?"
Liao Liao stopped with a sullen look on his face, "Of course not!"
After a pause, she said angrily: "I did all the calculations, but I forgot that he had never been involved in the music circle at all, so he must be still in that ideal stage now, he is not yet I know what the reality is in this circle! The two so-called conditions I mentioned at the time were just to affirm him and to tell him that it wasn't that I had to buy his songs at a premium, I was willing to pay that much money to buy them. The reason is because I think his songs are super well written, and his songs are worth the price! So you see, I will continue to buy them in the future... In fact, I want to have a good relationship with him! Of course, I am sure I also want to be able to buy songs cheaper in the future, but..."
While talking, she stopped slowly, turned her head to look at Qi Jie, and said in a weird tone, as if asking and answering: "He actually agreed without hesitation? No, he is just a face If he didn't show it, or he was temporarily stunned by my 400,000 yuan, he would definitely feel uncomfortable when he came back to his senses!"
While talking, she took out her mobile phone, found Li Qian's number, and said, "No, I have to call him! Explain what happened just now!"
…………
In the living room of the Li family, Li's father and Li's mother were sitting one by one, standing one by one, staring with wide eyes.
A brand new check was passed from hand to hand between the two of them, and it was about to have a rough edge.
Finally, after Dad Li lit a cigarette and took a few puffs, he seemed to regain some energy. He looked at Li Qian and asked, "Are you sure this is true?"
Li Qian smiled and said, "It shouldn't be fake. If you don't believe me, you can go to the bank to exchange it later."
Dad Li nodded, took a cigarette, and asked again, "Five songs... Did they give so much money?"
Li Qian smiled again, nodded and said, "It's five songs, and I shouldn't have given so many. As far as I know, a newcomer like me, no matter how good the song is, is only a few thousand yuan per song. But... It can be seen that the singer is very optimistic about the ability to write songs, so she wants to make friends with me for a long time, so she gave this high price to deliberately praise me! It's just... Hehe, she values me... Kind of clumsy."
Dad Li glanced at him when he heard the words, stopped talking, and continued to sit back on the sofa to smoke.
Just then, the phone rang suddenly.
Seeing the caller's number, Li Qian frowned slightly, but then laughed again.
"Hello, Sister Liao."
"Li Qian, my sister wants to explain something to you."
"Well, you said."
"That...that...the thing we talked about in the afternoon is the thing I mentioned later about buying songs in the future... Hey, I don't know how to explain it to you, anyway, you sister Liao don't mean anything else. , I just think that you are very talented, so whether it is to give you a high price or to mention those two conditions later, in fact, I want to…”
"Hi, Sister Liao, you don't need to say it, I understand what you mean."
"what?"
"In the future, your album will be short of songs. Even if you say hello to me, I will do my best. Between us, no matter how popular I am, the price will always be 80,000 yuan!"
"Uh...you...you misunderstood?"
"Hehe, there's nothing to misunderstand. You're praising me, I'm not a fool, of course I can understand! No matter if you are in the circle or outside, a newcomer, if there is a record company that throws such a contract in In front of me, ten out of ten people will sign! Besides, we didn't sign the contract, we just agreed verbally, and I can deny it at any time!"
"Haha... Okay, you! You're young, you know a lot!"
"So, is there nothing else?"
"No, that's all, just don't think about it!"
"Well, no. If it's all right, you can concentrate on preparing the album. I'll wait for you to help me make this first shot, and then follow the wind to make some money!"
"Haha, you can really talk!"
…………
After hanging up the phone, Liao Liao slowly put away his smile.
She glanced at Qi Jie suspiciously, frowned for a while, and then suddenly said, "Why do I suddenly feel that this child...isn't like everyone else?"
Qi Jie frowned, "How do you say it?"
Liao Liao waved his arm unconsciously~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and said, "In the afternoon, I originally... wanted to affirm his ability and talent. When I called just now, I was afraid that he might have misunderstood him, but this As soon as I called, I felt like everything I was doing was a bit... redundant!"
Having said this, she turned her head to look at Qi Jie, "Hey, baby, do you think this Li Qian... doesn't look like a seventeen-year-old child? He seems... he doesn't need me to be sure about him at all! He seems to have been very, very confident from the beginning! Look, I remember ha, it seems that you said you secretly recorded his songs, so you apologized to him, but what about him? For so few very good works, he He actually didn't care at all! And when he heard that I was going to buy a song, he didn't even feel surprised at all... Think about it again, he opened his notebook and tore down his works one by one, that attitude ...I don't even know how to describe it! It seems that he is...very confident?"
When she said it here, it was as if a thread had been pulled, and she couldn't stop talking. When she stopped, she found that Qi Jie had lost her mind at some point.
She seems to be... recalling something important?
***
Well, I admit that I was distracted by the book review area.
Originally, I had a serious shortage of coding time, and I spent most of my time thinking about how to appease your opinions and dislikes. Therefore, this chapter is the only one for today! And it was written in this chapter... extremely ugly!
So, this chapter should be considered purely as an explanation for you!
Finally, I asked for a few recommendation tickets to comfort my depressed heart.
