094 [Sakamoto Ryuichi's Admiration]
After performing the ceremony, Fujiwara Yuki was still standing there, and Li Yange said in English: "Sit! Mr. Fujiwara sits down and says."
"Hey!"
Fujiwara Yuki's English is average, but I understand this sentence, so I don't have to listen to Ryuichi Sakamoto's translation, and sat down with Ning Ying and others.
Seeing that everyone sat down, no one spoke for a while.
Li Yange didn't know what to say because the other party came too suddenly.
Fujiwara Yuki was sorting out his language, thinking about how to impress the other party to sign a contract with Polykin.
When Ryu Sakamoto saw that the two of them didn't say anything, he also took the initiative to say: "Mr. Li, Fujiwara came here this time to talk to you about releasing the album."
"That's right!" Fujiwara Yuki took over the conversation and said, "The songs written by Li Sang are really great. The producers in our company are very satisfied with your work, so I specially sent me to talk to Li Sang about signing a cooperation agreement."
After Ryuichi Sakamoto was translated, Li Yange thought for a while and asked, "Mr. Fujiwara, I don't know how your company wants to cooperate?"
"Mr. Usa, the manager of our company's artist department, likes Li Sang's works very much. I want to sign a contract with you to become our Polygin first artist in the mainland Chinese market."
Speaking of this, Fujiwara Yuki was afraid that Li Yange would not know Polygie's power, so she said: "Li Sang may not know our Polygie. Let me briefly tell you that our Polygie is headquartered in the UK, but most of the funds and manpower invested are in the Asian market, especially in Japan and Hong Kong, and the Wanwan area. They have signed a large number of artists and have released more than a thousand albums..."
Li Yange saw Fujiwara Yuki talk endlessly and interrupted: "Mr. Fujiwara, I have heard of you Polykin. At the same time, I know Polykin's strength in Asia, but as far as I know Polykin does not seem to have invested in our mainland market. You should know that I am still a student at present, and it is mainly about academic priority, and it may not be convenient to go to Japan to develop."
"Please rest assured about this. Our company is currently discussing that it will open two offices in Beijing and Guangzhou in the near future, mainly to sign contracts with mainland artists and release albums. Li Sang signed contracts with our company and does not need to travel to Japan in the future. Moreover, our company is optimistic about Li Sang's future development, so it gave Polykin's top artist contract, which will always have high autonomy!"
After Fujiwara Yuki expressed the benefits related to the artist contract, a confident smile appeared on his face. In his opinion, as long as he said the content of the contract, Li Yange would agree 100%.
"Sorry, Mr. Fujiwara, the conditions given by your company are indeed very attractive, but I have no idea to sign a contract with any company at the moment."
Li Yange hesitated for a long time, but finally shook his head and refused.
To be honest, he was very moved after hearing the conditions given by Fujiwara Yuki, especially when he released at least one music album for Li Yange every year, and would do his best to promote him in Japan. These two points alone are very attractive.
But the same thing is true. No matter how generous the contract conditions are, as long as the contract is signed, Li Yange will be firmly tied up by the company in the next few years. Once there is a disagreement with Polykin, people know whether Fujiwara Yuki, who looks very polite now, will turn against others?
Moreover, even if Li Yange wants to sign a contract with the company, it is impossible for this time.
If nothing unexpected happens, as long as "The Last Emperor" is released this year, it will surely shine at the Academy Awards next year. By then, for winning the Academy Awards for Best Soundtrack Award, the record company wants to sign him.
The conditions given are probably more favorable than Yuki Imaki Fujiwara, and Li Yange can also have more choices.
The decades of his previous life have passed, but in a year, he can still wait.
What's more, you don't have to wait for a year.
Fujiwara Yuki, who was already full of confidence, thought in her mind that she would take over the mainland office in the future. When she heard that Li Yange refused to sign the contract, she was stunned on the spot. After a while, she realized that she had reacted and hurriedly said: "Li Sang, are you not satisfied with the conditions given by our company? You can still talk about this aspect!"
"No, Mr. Fujiwara, the conditions given by your company are very generous, and I was very moved by it, but I don't have the idea of signing a contract with any company at the moment."
Li Yange deliberately emphasized the tone of "any company". Ryu Sakamoto, who was preparing to translate, glanced at him and roughly understood the meaning, so when he translated, he also increased this sentence.
…………
Half an hour later.
Li Yange and Ning Ying left.
Only Yuki Fujiwara and Ryuichi Sakamoto were left in the suite.
"Sakamoto, what does he mean? I have given such generous signing conditions!"
Fujiwara Yuki frowned, wondering why Li Yange's attitude was so firm. You should know that Polykin has made plans to enter the mainland market. As a contracted Li Yange, he will get a lot of resources in the future, not only in the mainland market, but also in the Japanese market.
Ryuichi Sakamoto did not answer his words, but asked back: "Fujiwara, have you listened carefully to the songs I sent you?"
"Of course..."
Fujiwara was about to hear it, but when he saw Ryuichi Sakamoto's face, he said embarrassedly: "I'm quite busy recently and need to be responsible for Miss Nakajima's new album, so..."
"Mr. Li is a young man who is very talented in music. His future achievements are limitless. So after I knew that there were no record companies in the mainland Chinese market, I sent you the songs he created, but you didn't listen to them!"
Ryuichi Sakamoto said with a grudge: "Fujiwara, I have known you for many years and know your personality, but if you don't change this problem, I think you will be ruined sooner or later."
"Sakamoto, Li Sang is as talented as you said?" Fujiwara Yuki was stunned. He didn't expect Sakamoto Ryu to say such a harsh word, and at the same time he was surprised at his evaluation of Li Yange.
Although Ryuichi Sakamoto is not very famous in the mainland, he is a well-known musician in Japan. Born in 1952, he graduated in 1976 after obtaining a master's degree in audio from the Tokyo University of the Arts.
In 1977, he collaborated with his friends Haruki Hoshino and Yukihiro Takahashi. The following year, the three of them formed an electronic band and then released an album, which caused a considerable response in Japan at that time, which further enhanced Ryuichi Sakamoto's fame.
In 1983, Ryuichi Sakamoto and David Bowie co-starred in the war drama "Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence". He was also responsible for the soundtrack of the film. The soundtrack of the film won the Best Soundtrack Award at the 37th British Film Academy Awards and was shortlisted for the Best Soundtrack Award at the 7th RB Film Academy Awards in the same year.
It is also because of his best soundtrack that won the British Film Academy Awards that Ryuichi Sakamoto was called a "musical genius" by the Japanese media and is almost a household name in the Japanese music industry.
After winning the Oscar soundtrack for "The Last Emperor", he was called "the last composer of the Showa era!"
Of course, "The Last Emperor" has not been released yet, let alone won an Oscar, but Ryuichi Sakamoto, who has already gained many honors, all admire Li Yange's musical talent so much. It is conceivable how shock it brought to Yuki Fujiwara.
"Yes, very talented! You have never heard of the soundtrack he created for the movie. Although the song "Memories of the Forbidden City" has not been adopted, I believe that as long as you hear this song, you will definitely be excited. It is a shocking, magnificent and magnificent masterpiece!"
Ryuichi Sakamoto is now in his thirties, and he is also a well-known composer in Japan. If he hadn't really been optimistic about Li Yange, how could he say this?
Seeing his attitude, Fujiwara Yuki gritted his teeth and nodded and said, "I know what to do with Sakamoto!"
