Chapter 103 Become a household of hundreds of thousands of yuan
If possible, put the book in the bookshelf, which will make it convenient for you and support me. Thank you very much!
In the whispers of the female staff in the cubicle, "Is it him?" "It's him?" Director Zhang sent Feng Yiping to the door, and lawyer Xiao Zhao even accompanied Feng Yiping out. Why? Because there was no adult accompanying him, Feng Yiping couldn't even stay in a hotel.
As soon as Feng Yiping left, Director Zhang started to contact him. He picked two of the ten songs, made several calls, and then sent faxes to several major record companies in Hong Kong and Taiwan. The next step was very simple, just wait.
Feng Yiping was still very interested in traveling in the old place. He lay on the hotel window and looked out. Now the tall buildings are more concentrated in Huanshi Road.
Within the scope of his eyes, there were nearly ten tower cranes under construction. He had no ambition to think that if he bought a few houses in these newly built buildings or in the old communities covered with green trees below, his son would be born in more than ten or twenty years later, he would be a rich second generation!
The next morning, he arrived at Xiguan, which is not far from where he will work and struggle in the future. It is also the most local feature of Yangcheng. Not many of these old-looking blue-gray houses in front of him will be left behind.
He wandered leisurely in this ancient house alone, watching everything in front of him eagerly. When he went out for a trip, Feng Yiping, who had never liked to take photos, felt that it was necessary to buy a camera.
I originally wanted to go to Zhongda in the afternoon, but as soon as I returned to the hotel, I was blocked in the room by lawyer Xiao Zhao. Polykin's people arrived at the law firm in the morning, and Warner's people arrived with just a while. Now people from both sides are waiting for him.
Although it is a record company, the people sent by both parties are professionals in professional outfits. Fortunately! Feng Yiping was really afraid that a company would send a man with a braided braid and dressed exaggeratedly to contact him.
As soon as Feng Yiping entered the door of the conference room, the men in suits on both sides looked over and were stared at by such a large group of men. To be honest, it was not a good experience.
Director Zhang introduced Feng Yiping to the left, "This is Mr. Guan from Polykin."
Mr. Guan and Deputy Director Zhang are about the same age, with a flat head and a big nose, and they are obviously an energetic person.
Director Zhang should have introduced it, so after seeing Feng Yiping's real person, although he was inevitably a little surprised, he still solemnly handed Feng Yiping the business card.
The representative of Warner's side is a young man, very contagious. Mr. Guan is older and has some things to say. Manager Zheng of Warner is not so careless. He was so enthusiastic and praised when he shook hands. Feng Yiping, who was thick-skinned, felt a little embarrassed.
After the greetings, Feng Yiping sat down and whispered to Director Zhang, "Don't wait anymore? Are there other companies?"
It was a whisper, but his voice was so small that he could not get a sound during his voice change period - of course he did it on purpose.
Sure enough, the two representatives immediately said that they are the top record companies in the entire Chinese music, and it doesn’t matter if they don’t see anything else.
These words are not too exaggerated, especially Polygold at this time. Look at its singers, you will know its strength. Among the four people who just won the title of "Four Heavenly Kings" two years ago, only Guo Tianwang is not under its command. Leslie Cheung, Zuo Linyou Li, Faye Wong, Chen Huixian, etc. are all its contracted artists at this time. Which of these people is not a well-known figure?
Feng Yiping also tends to Polykin. Nothing is it. Most of his ten songs this time were produced by Polykin later.
It is better to have a strong law firm like Dacheng to take the lead. Director Zhang discussed with the two companies one by one according to the opinions put forward by Feng Yiping, but in fact it means bidding.
First, each song is priced at three to five thousand US dollars, and the two companies have suggested that the price is too high and cannot be accepted, and they hope to be priced in RMB.
Director Zhang was also prepared. He pointed out with a smile that Polykin and Warner both went to Europe to shoot MVs for their main singers last year. The budget for a title song is at least one million. In comparison, such an excellent work, how can it be calculated by such a few thousand dollars?
Indeed, at least in the Chinese music scene, it is now the golden age. During these days, singers with good grades can live a good life by just sharing their album sales.
For example, Liu Tianwang, the total sales of "Thank You for Love" released last year reached 1.68 million copies throughout the year! Twenty years later, the Hong Kong Music Association lowered the standard of platinum records to 15,000 copies per picture, but few people still get this honor. Compared with this, it is really a big difference.
Stimulated by high returns, the record company is certainly willing to invest a lot, investing millions of main songs, which is a small meaning.
After hearing what Director Zhang said, the two companies were embarrassed to get involved in this link. The two companies automatically bid and finally raised the 5,000 US dollars that Feng Yiping said.
As for the settlement currency, Feng Yiping insists on US dollars. Both of you, such a big company, care so much about this difference. I, a rural child, have just gotten rid of poverty, so naturally I have to insist on it even more.
However, the two sides were once stalemate for the commission for each album. Director Zhang spoke up and proposed at least 10%. The two sides fought each other one by one. The other one around them should be the role of an actuary, and they wrote a number on paper from time to time and handed it over to Guan Zheng.
The albums produced by these ten songs are estimated to have annual sales of at least one million in Asia, and every point at this time is not a small number.
While the two sides were negotiating, Mr. Guan no longer cared about the age gap between him and Feng Yiping and spoke incessantly, and Manager Zheng was even more so. They did not forget to make various promises to Feng Yiping, such as helping him apply for a study in Hong Kong, signing a long-term contract with him, etc. Feng Yiping said, "Think about it."
There is no need to study in Hong Kong now. As for a long-term contract, Feng Yiping is stupid. After signing the contract, although he has a salary, his income company needs to be paid, and the amount is not low. With his ability, are you anxious to work now?
But let alone, Feng Yiping, a guy who was not a small boss later, has always been asking for help many times. Now he is begging people from large multinational companies with various conditions. That feeling is really great!
It cannot be said that these two international companies have a share in doing this. It is really easy to find singers and good songs.
For example, in various talent shows later, good singing emerged one after another, and many people in the fields even had a good voice. However, how many lyricists can write classic songs?
With these ten songs from Feng Yiping as the foundation, the two companies can use extremely low costs to turn an unknown young singer into a first-class star, with an extremely high input-output ratio.
Just like this, we fought back and forth, and more than an hour passed, but there was still no consensus.
At this time, lawyer Xiao Zhao came in again and said to Director Zhang, "The representatives of Taiwan's Rolling Stones and UFOs have arrived."
This sentence is the catalyst. After fifteen minutes of discussion, the two companies each gave their own final conditions.
Polygin's condition is that the price of two songs is increased to $10,000, three songs are increased to $8,000, and the other five songs are still $5,000, and the copyright usage fee is 5%.
Warner's condition is that each song is still $5,000, and the copyright fee is 6%.
Of course, these are all tax-free and are settled in US dollars.
Director Zhang prefers Warner's conditions, and one percent is a lot different, but Feng Yiping finally chose Polygon. After all, it has many works, and the difference is not big. Just let's go.
The key is that Polygon has many singers and great appeal, which can ensure sales.
Manager Zheng from Warner was a little disappointed, but he was still very enthusiastic about saying goodbye to Feng Yiping and hoped to have a chance to cooperate next time. He didn't believe that such people would only have works this year.
Finally, Dacheng Law Firm and Polykin signed a formal contract, which also clarified the confidentiality of the creators and the calculation of the base and other related matters.
Feng Yiping did not give up on the signature, but insisted on using the name "Deep Sea". There was no way, he just liked to play lurking!
The belated representatives of two record companies in Taiwan were in the conference room, watching them shake hands inside and make a deal, and they were very upset. Manager Zheng did not leave, and was with the representatives of the UFO because Warner had acquired some shares of the UFO at this time.
When they saw Feng Yiping coming out, the Rolling Stone and the UFO immediately came over to hand in their business cards to make friends, hoping to have a meal together and chat.
Feng Yiping is now a resource for law firms. For law firms, it is not bad to have a good relationship with these companies. So that night, the law firm was the owner and entertained representatives of several companies from afar. Everyone was a little extravagant at Panxi Restaurant.
During the meal, everyone naturally praised Feng Yiping. Although they didn’t drink, Feng Yiping felt that he was almost drunk!
The next morning, the contract signed and stamped by Polykin Company was also sent to Dacheng Law Firm, with a total of 69,000 US dollars also arrived.
The contract was delivered with a Leica M6 camera.
To talk about these aspects, the Hong Kong company, which has been highly commercialized, is doing very well. Feng Yiping said last night when he was having a meal that many beautiful scenery in Yangcheng can be painted now, but Mr. Guan remembered it in his heart.
Yet, compared to that one percent, these thousand US dollars cameras are nothing.
Feng Yiping is now at the age of the time, opening an account is very troublesome, but these are not a problem in front of Dacheng Law Firm. Director Zhang personally accompanied him to the Bank of China user account to open an account.
This time, the income was 69,000 US dollars, the law firm cost 6900, Feng Yiping only left 55,000, and the rest was entrusted to Director Zhang to exchange for RMB, and 50,000 yuan, and they saved it together.
Just based on the bank's license price, Feng Yiping's book assets are now close to 400,000 yuan, and he finally became a household worth hundreds of thousands of yuan!
Moreover, by next year, the RMB will depreciate again, and his dollars will appreciate at least 20%!
