Save the Bachelor of Heaven
Chapter 1071 1073【Signing with a record company】
Xiang Nan met such a girl on a blind date before. She didn't reply to WeChat or answer the phone, which made people crazy.
Although, he knew that Zhao Kai was busy with work and didn't mean to ignore him.
But this feeling is still very uncomfortable.
...
Another day later, Xiang Nan and Huang Weiye visited several record companies.
"Mr. Cao, we all like your song, can you sing it live? Don't be nervous, relax..." Feng Jie, manager of Caoguo Records, said with a smile.
Xiang Nan nodded, knowing that people depend on his on-the-spot ability.
Previous singers could make a lot of money selling records. Nowadays, singers mainly make money from commercial performances.
Commercial performances are not just concerts, there are many performances in bars, nightclubs, shopping malls, and even open-air squares.
Xiang Nan immediately started singing.
He has inherited Fang Yifan's decades of acting experience, and he will never have any thoughts of stage fright, nervousness, or restraint.
Because Fang Yifan was born in musicals, every scene was a live performance, facing hundreds or thousands of audiences, he still couldn't make a single mistake.
This job is much more difficult than doing commercial performances.
Feng Jie sang when he saw him rapping. He was not shy or pretentious. He was grand and steady. Although he sang a cappella, he still had a good grasp of pitch, rhyme, and rhythm. He sang beautifully. He couldn't help but nodded in satisfaction.
"Okay, Mr. Cao is very talented in acting, did you do this before?" Feng Jie asked with a smile.
"Oh, my father is a literary and art worker. He is good at playing, playing and singing. When I was in college, I also liked dancing. He was the protagonist of our school dance." Xiang Nan laughed.
"I see, that's even better." Feng Jie nodded and said, "Then Mr. Cao, besides "People Like Me", do you have any other works?"
"Oh, there are still some immature works." Xiang Nan nodded and smiled, "It's just a few words, not finished yet."
"Then you can hum to listen." Feng Jie said with a smile.
Xiang Nan nodded, knowing that Feng Jie wanted to see his potential.
Generally, online singers only have one representative work. After becoming famous, they soon fell silent because there were no new works. When a record company wants to sign a singer, they naturally hope that the talent of the singer is as high as possible, so that they can stay popular for a longer time and earn more money.
...
"Then I'll sing a few casually." Xiang Nan nodded, and then hummed softly, "Honey, falling in love with you, from that day on, it's so sweet and easy..."
"Where has the time gone, I am old before I feel young...", "I have crossed mountains and seas, and I have also passed through mountains and seas of people...", "The sea of people is so vast, drifting with the tide, life Like a dream, where are you my dear..."
In one breath, he hummed the climax of seven or eight songs.
Feng Jie smiled and clapped his hands, "Mr. Cao, enough is enough. Although your singing is only a few fragments, you can imagine that these songs are very good. I also have a preliminary understanding of your talent.
In this way, our company is willing to sign a contract with you if you wish. "
"Okay." Xiang Nan nodded, "What's the condition?"
Feng Jie immediately took out a standard contract.
Xiang Nan read it roughly, focusing on the following points.
The first is the scope of the contract, the second is the duration of the contract, the third is the rights and responsibilities of both parties, the fourth is the division of interests, and the fifth is the conditions for termination of the contract.
He noticed that the scope of the contract was very broad, requiring all performing arts activities, not just stage performances, but also commercials, film and television drama shooting, and webcasting.
The duration of the contract is also very long, one signing is nine years. Moreover, the rights and responsibilities of both parties are not equal, and the singer is obviously at a disadvantage. For example, in the absence of reasonable reasons, the performance arrangement made by the company shall not be rejected.
And in terms of contract termination, the record company has the upper hand. People have the initiative to terminate the contract. If they find that the singer is not suitable to continue performing, they can directly announce the termination of the contract, which is not considered a breach of contract.
In contrast, if the artist requests to terminate the contract, he will have to pay a large amount of breach of contract fees.
...
"Weiye, this contract..." Xiang Nan hesitated.
"It's okay, the contracts in this industry are all like this." Huang Weiye explained, "Record companies have to spend real money to support singers. If they don't set the contract in a wrong way, how can they make money."
"How about this record company? Is it strong enough? Don't cheat me." Xiang Nan said worriedly.
As far as he knows, many singers are hidden away after signing with the record company, without any support or resources. Force singers to pay for their own records.
If you are lucky enough to become popular, you can take advantage of the opportunity to arrange singers to participate in commercial performances to make money and squeeze out the value of TA. When the singer really can't bear it and wants to terminate the contract, he will pay a large liquidated damages.
Although Xiang Nan doesn't point to being a celebrity to make a lot of money, he doesn't want to be tricked either.
"As far as I know, it's quite reliable." Huang Weiye whispered, "There are four or five singers under their company, and the most popular one is the one who sang "Don't Say My Tears Don't Matter"... "
Xiang Nan thought about it carefully, then shook his head.
The title of this song sounds familiar to him, and he remembers hearing it when he was in school, but he really forgot the name of the specific singer.
"It doesn't matter who it is. Anyway, I have met a few, and they are quite satisfied with this company." Huang Weiye said, "If you feel inappropriate, let's go to a few other companies to see. In fact, the situation is different. Almost. After all, I don’t know any record companies that are too high-end.”
Xiang Nan nodded, and after thinking about it, he finally decided to sign with Caoguo Records.
As a result, all the crows in the world are black, Caoguo Records is domineering, and other record companies may not be kind. Even giants like Rolling Stone have done things like hide artists, so switching to another company may not necessarily improve.
Secondly, if the store is too big to deceive customers, if the customers are too big, it will also deceive the store. If Caoguo Records is not kind, after he makes a fortune in the future, he can kill it backhandedly, and he is not afraid of it playing tricks. If you change to a big company, it will be troublesome then.
"Mr. Cao, you are welcome to join our company." Feng Jie said with a smile.
"Thank you, I hope we can cooperate happily in the future, mutual benefit and win-win." Xiang Nan nodded and said.
"Definitely." Feng Jie nodded with a smile, "Mr. Cao, we will be promoting your song next, and I hope you can cooperate with our work."
"Of course, fully cooperate." Xiang Nan agreed.
"Okay, we will draw up a promotion plan as soon as possible, you go back and wait for our news." Feng Jie said again, "Remember to keep yourself clean and protect your throat.
You are not an ordinary person now, but an artist. You must be self-disciplined in your life. "
"Don't worry, I've always been very self-disciplined." Xiang Nan nodded.
"That's good."
