Chapter 15
"Excuse me, are you Mr. Su Yu? I am Lin Ming, the music manager of Huayi Company."
After introducing himself, Lin Ming continued, "I'm sorry, Mr. Su, I obtained your phone number through some channels and contacted you abruptly. I hope you won't be angry."
Su Yu said helplessly, "It's alright. May I ask what brings you here, Mr. Lin?"
Lin Ming quickly said, "Mr. Su, it's like this, I saw your videos on Douyin and I think your music style is very suitable for our company."
Su Yu: “…”
To show his sincerity, Lin Ming said, "Mr. Su, we are willing to sign a contract with you at the signing fee of our company's top artists. Of course, if you have any other conditions, you can also bring them up, and we will definitely meet them!"
……
Su Yu realized Lin Ming's intentions.
But he had just agreed to meet with Chen Wen.
After much deliberation, Su Yu decided to meet with Chen Wen and Lin Ming together. Su Yu spoke with them, and both of them said they had no problem and would follow Su Yu's arrangements.
"Brother, you're so foolish!"
I learned that Su Yu had made appointments with two companies at the same time.
Zheng Ze does not eat lychees.
Su Yu asked nonchalantly, "What's wrong?"
"Brother, are you stupid? What if they contact you privately and deliberately try to lower your signing fee?"
Zheng Ze's considerations were not entirely unreasonable, but Su Yu was confident that with the songs "Days in Dongcheng, Beijing" and "The Most Dazzling Ethnic Style," Lin Ming and Chen Wen would definitely fight tooth and nail for him.
As for why he arranged to meet the two of them at the same time, there's only one reason—laziness!
The same negotiation content.
He doesn't want to go through that twice.
Besides, he didn't sign a contract.
Finally, a local number from Linjiang City called.
"The takeout has finally arrived."
Su Yu hurriedly went downstairs and headed towards the entrance of the residential area.
"Xiao Su".
Su Yu had just picked up his takeout from the delivery locker when he heard security guard Liu calling him.
"What's wrong, Uncle Liu?"
Su Yu turned around and saw Grandpa Liu mysteriously beckoning him over.
Su Yu slapped his forehead: "Uncle Liu, look at my memory, I forgot to transfer the parking fee to you."
"No, Xiao Su, I have something good for you."
Grandpa Liu took out a red plastic bag containing a bottle.
"liquor?"
Su Yu asked, puzzled.
Grandpa Liu chuckled smugly, “You little rascal, you have a pretty good nose, but you only guessed half right.”
Grandpa Liu kept everyone in suspense as he opened the plastic bag: "This is medicinal wine that I made using deer antler, snake, lamb kidneys, angelica... all sorts of highly nourishing ingredients!"
Su Yu was completely bewildered and didn't understand.
Grandpa Liu stuffed the medicinal wine into Su Yu's hand: "Alright, brat, there's nothing to be embarrassed about in front of your grandpa. Last night, the little girl ran out in less than ten minutes."
Su Yu shrugged: "So?"
Grandpa Liu gave me a knowing look: "Alright, kid, I've been there. The first time is usually short, that's normal. Drink some of my nourishing medicinal wine, and I guarantee the second time will last at least two and a half hours!"
"hiss!"
Su Yu shuddered; just hearing it sent a burning pain through his phantom limb.
Two and a half hours, and my skin would be rubbed raw!
"Sir, farewell!"
Su Yu put down the medicinal wine, grabbed the takeout, and fled for his life.
Grandpa Liu took out his phone and found that Su Yu had transferred an extra two hundred yuan to him. He clenched the medicinal wine in his hand tightly and said, "Grandpa, I will definitely repay your kindness!"
One p.m.
Linjiang Airport.
Chen Wen and Lin Ming met at the security checkpoint.
When people who are troubled meet, their eyes blaze with hatred.
"Su Yu is from our Douyin!"
"Not always!"
The two snorted and got into a taxi, speeding towards Jin Baihan.
Jin Baihan.
The most luxurious hotel in Linjiang City.
After Chen Wen and Lin Ming had been waiting for about half an hour, a Porsche finally appeared in front of them.
"Su Yu is here."
The two said in unison.
Clearly, Chen Wen and Lin Ming watched last night's live stream.
"Welcome, sir."
A waiter came out to greet us and took the car keys.
As Su Yu walked in, he saw Chen Wen and Lin Ming waving excitedly at him.
"Hello, Mr. Su."
The two of them reached out their hands together.
Seeing this, Su Yu could only cross his hands and then grasp the outstretched hands of the two people.
"Sit down."
Seeing that the two were still standing, Su Yu took the initiative to speak.
As soon as the three sat down, they got straight to the point and got to the point.
"Mr. Su, I believe we have already discussed with you the purpose of our visit to Linjiang City."
Chen Wen spoke first.
Su Yu nodded: "Understood!"
Lin Ming followed closely behind: "Mr. Su, on behalf of Huayi Company, I would like to express our utmost sincerity by offering you a signing fee equivalent to that of a top-tier star."
At the same time, if you reach a plateau in your singing career, or become interested in acting.
We are willing to offer you two movies featuring the male lead.
Both of these films had budgets exceeding 100 million!
Of course, if the movie is good, we will continue to invest!
Lin Ming dropped a bombshell right from the start.
Huayi Brothers is a long-established entertainment company in the entertainment industry, with several major departments including film and television, music, etc., basically covering all kinds of entertainment in the industry.
Film and television are the foundation of Huayi Brothers' success.
Therefore, Huayi Brothers' film resources are highly sought after by celebrities in the entertainment industry.
Huayi Brothers' willingness to allocate two films with budgets exceeding 100 million yuan demonstrates their strong commitment.
Chen Wen retorted without backing down, "Mr. Su, as a rising star on our Douyin platform, you gained over a million followers in just two days."
This surprised and delighted us!
Next, I'll talk about the conditions offered by our company, Douyin.
I'm confident that you'll choose us after hearing our explanation.
Lin Ming snorted coldly: "Don't try to get close to me. Just give me what you have. Why waste so much time on nonsense?"
Chen Wen retorted excitedly, "Don't interrupt others, okay?"
Then, Chen Wen looked at Su Yu again, preparing to tell him the conditions offered by Douyin.
However, when she saw the slight upturn of Su Yu's lips, her face flushed, and she changed her words, saying, "Don't interrupt others!"
Lin Ming was taken aback, then realized what he meant: "Old witch!"
Chen Wen took a deep breath and quickly composed herself: "Mr. Su, compared to Huayi Company's contract model, Douyin is willing to start a brand new cooperation model with you."
—You own all the copyrights to the song, while we only retain the priority playback rights for three years!
In return, we are willing to provide 6000 million RMB in cash annually, a massive traffic pool of tens of millions for top livestreamers, free legal counsel, and promotional resources.
Of course, we are willing to split the membership fees and download fees generated from all songs uploaded to Soft Music with you 50/50.
After that, we will conduct a quarterly evaluation based on the number of loyal users we have cultivated, and increase the revenue sharing ratio with you. We will also conduct an annual evaluation to increase the signing fee. In fact, it is even possible that we will directly give you shares of Soda Music.
In addition, our company boasts hundreds of millions of users and is currently developing various software platforms and actively connecting with other entertainment companies.
If you are interested in acting or even filming, we are willing to provide you with resources totaling 10 billion yuan.
After Chen Wen said those words, Lin Ming, who had been confident of victory, instantly turned pale.
She questioned, "Chen Wen, has your company gone mad?"
