24. Smart Zhao Xinjun

Wang Zhe got up in the morning and continued to type in the keyboard. He had a casual instant noodles and soon received a call from his agent Liu Li.

"Sister Liu."

Wang Zhe put down his keyboard and called Sister Liu as usual.

On the other end of the phone, Liu Li was in the office of the boss Zhao Xinjun, and Zhao Xinjun was sitting behind Liu Li.

Liu Li held the phone and said with a greeting: "Wang Zhe, are you doing well recently?"

Wang Zhe's mind was turning quickly. Based on his experience and speculation, the two old seniors might have contacted Xintian Company, so Xintian immediately contacted himself and wanted to test himself.

"Fortunately, thank you Sister Liu for your concern."

Wang Zhe replied: "Sister Liu is asking me for something? Is it because of the new album that has been settled?"

Liu Li was stunned for a moment and looked at her boss Zhao Xinjun. Zhao Xinjun thought about it but shook her head. He didn't know what the two big guys were thinking, so he couldn't take risks easily. After all, Wang Zhe's last album was really miserable, and Xintian lost at least two million.

Zhao Xinjun's total assets are only hundreds of millions of dollars, which is also considered some real estate, so losing several million is enough to make him feel distressed.

If he continues to release a new album for Wang Zhe and pays another few million, wouldn’t he cry to death?

Maybe it will be in vain this year.

Xintian is just a small record company, with a profit of only tens of millions per year, and its pillar is just a second-tier singer.

Therefore, Zhao Xinjun still didn't want to release a new album for Wang Zhe, and he didn't dare to take risks.

Liu Li said to Wang Zhe helplessly: "Not yet, the company's album production plan for this year is already full, and there is no extra money to release a new album for you."

Wang Zhe also said: "Sister Liu, I am a person with dreams. I just want to fulfill my dream. Is it true that you said last time that the company wanted me to pay for the album by myself?"

Zhao Xinjun's eyes lit up when he heard Wang Zhe's words on the phone.

It is not uncommon for some rich second generations who have the dream of singers to spend money to make albums by themselves. Last year, Shinta also helped a rich second generation produce a new album, and the production fee was as high as 10 million. Shinta earned a profit of more than 3 million, which made Zhao Xinjun still remembered.

Letting Wang Zhe pay for the album himself was just a pissing word that Zhao Xinjun said at the meeting. The original words were like this: "What new album is so frustrating for his first album? The company has no money! He insists on publishing it, so he pays it himself. The company does not have any copyright or income, and only charges production fees."

Liu Li knew that this was impossible, so she casually transferred this to Wang Zhe last time, hoping that Wang Zhe would give up, but she didn't expect that Wang Zhe would remember it in her heart.

Zhao Xinjun nodded to Liu Li.

Liu Li said to Wang Zhe: "Well, the company says that, but Wang Zhe, it costs a lot to make a new album. You have to think clearly that buying songs costs money, recording costs, soundtracks, post-production, and contact factory production. There are no millions that can't be listed on the market."

Wang Zhe thought for a while and asked, "Sister Liu, if I write songs myself and act as a producer myself, I only use the company's recording studio and band, and I will do the post-production myself, how much does it cost?"

Liu Li and Zhao Xinjun were stunned when they heard this.

This kid really wants to pay for the album himself?

He also writes songs by himself, acts as a producer by himself, and produces his own post-production by himself?

Are you here to make fun of it?

Do you think making an album is a playhouse? Can you handle it alone?

Zhao Xinjun couldn't help laughing. If he hadn't deliberately restrained himself, he might have laughed out loud. This kid was really ignorant.

Is the song so easy to write?

I am afraid that only he can understand what he writes himself.

Those young people made some self-proclaimed lyrics and songs, just like songs, but they were basically nonsense, and Zhao Xinjun saw them a lot.

As for the producer, he is the second most important person in an album, and some albums are the first and most of the soul characters. Most of the newcomers' albums are basically the style of the producer, and the performance of the newcomers is second.

Those big-name singers have their own personal producers who have worked with them for many years, so that they can produce better albums.

This kid may have been crazy about coming up with an album, and he dared to take on a lot of things without knowing anything.

There is no help.

Zhao Xinjun thought with certainty that he had no fantasies about Wang Zhe. He was so stupid and ignorant, how could he have a future in the future?

Then he quickly gestured to Liu Li and said, "One million!"

Liu Li also immediately forwarded the boss's words to Wang Zhe: "I think it may take about one million."

One million?

A little too much.

Wang Zhe asked again: "Then do I only record five songs?"

Zhao Xinjun gestured eight more fingers: "800,000."

Liu Li replied: "That's probably about 800,000. Wang Zhe, it's too risky to make your own album. 800,000 is not a small amount of money. You have to think carefully..."

Liu Li is still a conscientious agent. At this time, she persuaded Wang Zhe from Wang Zhe's standpoint.

She knew that the boss just wanted to earn a production fee.

When recording five songs, there is no cost to use the studio, it is just some electricity bills. At that time, the use time of other singers is staggered and the time to leave Wang Zhe for use. As for the band soundtrack, the company has raised several newly recruited bands, which are still in the running-in period. They are idle and their wages are paid as well. It is better to use waste.

Eight hundred thousand, almost net profit.

Wang Zhe smiled and said, "Thank you, Sister Liu, for reminding me, I just want to realize my dream. If this fails, I will never sing again."

Seeing that the boss's face was not good, Liu Li said immediately: "Then I won't say much, it's best for you to think clearly."

Wang Zhe quickly asked, "Okay, Sister Liu, when will I sign a new album production contract with the company?"

He spends money on making the new album, so the natural copyright and income must belong to himself. Xintian Company is just helping with the production, which is equivalent to an OEM company, and needs to sign a new contract to clarify these powers and obligations.

Otherwise, if the new album becomes popular, wouldn’t it be that if you pay for Xintian Company to make money for nothing?

Liu Li replied: "If you have time, you can come to the company to sign a contract at any time."

Zhao Xinjun thought about it and still made a gesture to Liu Li, asking her to ask He Yongzhi and Chen Xian about it.

So Liu Li changed her tone and asked, "By the way, Wang Zhe, do you know Chen Xian from Zhongyuan Records and He Yongzhi from Dayang Records?"

Wang Zhe smiled on his face, knowing that this was the reason why the other party called: "Oh, I know them, they are all my seniors. We have seen each other and have a good relationship. They also said they would help me make a record. I said forget it, I will do it myself."

Liu Li smiled and said, "Then you have a good relationship, so let's do it."

"Okay, goodbye Sister Liu."

Wang Zhe put down the phone.

Liu Li also put down the phone and looked at her boss Zhao Xinjun, saying, "Mr. Zhao, I think, Chen Xian and He Yongzhi may just want to help Wang Zhe release an album and help him realize his dream."

Zhao Xinjun looked thoughtful. He couldn't understand the thoughts of the two big guys. After a call in the morning, he stopped contacting himself.

If the other party really attaches importance to Wang Zhe, and Wang Zhe is worthy of being discovered and worthy of the two big bosses' personal efforts, they will definitely continue to contact each other, after all, the price has not been negotiated!

Of course, a contract for a newcomer is not worth much, at most, it looks like a hundred or two hundred thousand. This thing is worth only if someone wants it, but if no one wants it, it is just a waste. After all, it has already failed.

But now, neither Chen Xian nor He Yongzhi called him again.

The biggest possibility is that the two big guys may have some relationship with Wang Zhe, which is why they are like this due to their feelings, but they just try it out. After they refuse, the two big guys may have taken advantage of the situation and exposed it. After all, they don’t want to do a business that loses money.

After thinking about it, Zhao Xinjun said, "Then let it be. They may just be kind to each other."

Seeing that Liu Li wanted to leave, Zhao Xinjun hurriedly said, "By the way, Wang Zhe just said that he wanted to pay for the album himself. I have passed this matter and asked the Ministry of Justice to draft a contract for OEM production and let him sign it."

Liu Li frowned and said, "Mr. Zhao, I think Wang Zhe may not have thought about it yet... It's better to slow down this matter first and let him think more."

Zhao Xinjun waved his hand and said, "Liu Li, you have to consider the problem from the perspective of the company. Wang Zhe is no longer valuable to the company, so we must maximize our interests. Wang Zhe will produce 800,000 yuan in production fees for the new album at that time, and I will give you two dividends."

Liu Li was silent, then nodded and turned around and went out.

As for what Chen Xian and He Yongzhi said that he wanted to buy Wang Zhe's contract, Zhao Xinjun knew that the two big guys would never pay 800,000 to buy this worthless newcomer contract, so when the two big guys did not continue to contact, he did not call back and ask, so as not to backfire and annoy the two big guys.

Just take this as it hasn't happened.
