Colonel Parker immediately took out the contract, and at the same time took out a pen and stuffed it into Bart's hand. He said, "Think about it? Don't think about it anymore! You have been thinking about it for so long, but haven't seen everyone else leave one by one? I have missed so many companies, do you still want to miss my opportunity?"

Bart immediately retorted: "They left after we rejected it. It's not that they don't want to sign with us. As long as we want, we can still sign contracts with those companies."

"Hey hey! I also know that your son is very popular now. But you have to know that fame is so vague that you can come and leave. Having fame now does not mean you have fame in the future, right? So, I said you should sign a contract as soon as possible, otherwise if you lose your reputation, it would be difficult, it would be difficult, and difficult!"

Colonel Parker was so quick that at that moment, he had already convinced the Carpenters and his wife. Bart picked up the pen and was about to sign his name when he suddenly snatched the contract with one hand next to him.

The hand was stretched out very quickly, suddenly, and almost no one noticed it.

It was very fast and got the contract in one go.

"Alex!" The Carpenters soon saw clearly the owner of the hand, and it turned out to be their eldest son.

When Colonel Parker saw him, a hint of displeasure flashed through his heart, but his face did not show up, but instead said with a smile: "Oh, it turns out to be our future star Alex! You are here just in time, we are preparing to sign a contract."

"Why don't you go to school? It's not the time for school now." Angel looked at the wall clock on the wall and immediately realized that his son had skipped school again.

"The things taught in the school were so boring that I was about to fall asleep while sitting there. Later I thought, since I was going to sleep, I might as well go home to sleep. The teacher agreed with my idea very much, so he let me back."

Angel was not angry when she heard this. After all, her son was so smart that the things taught in the school had long been useless to him.

"You're back just in time. We're planning to sign a contract with Colonel Parker, you can see."

"Sign the contract? You must have Richard and I present to sign it. Colonel Parker, you are not kind enough to do this!"

Seeing that things had changed, Colonel Parker began to be anxious. He smiled and said, "Aren't you going to school? I just convinced your parents."

Alex didn't say anything, he picked up the contract and looked through it page by page. No problem could be seen from his expression, but it still made Colonel Parker feel heartbroken.

"The contract I gave is the best. If you don't believe it, go and inquire and see which company can give you such a good contract." Colonel Parker kept saying while looking at the contract. He said how strong the RCA company he represented is, and how good the contract is for newcomers.

After reading the contract, Alex looked at Colonel Parker's eyes and asked, "I looked at it. This contract is just a contract with you, not a contract with RCA."

Colonel Parker nodded without changing his face and said, "Yes, is there any problem with this? I can sign with me first so that I can fight for you to benefit from RCA."

Before Alex could say anything, he turned to the Carpenters and his wife and said, "You guys don't understand the record industry. In this industry, it's not OK to find a better agent."

After hearing this, Bart's face changed drastically, and he stammered: "Then, then I... am not the agent?"

Colonel Parker shrugged and said, "Are you an agent? I think you don't even know what the agent is. I ask you, can you bring a sky-high contract to their brothers? Can you find them the opportunity to go on TV? Can you?"

Bart was furious and said angrily: "We don't need you to be an agent, we won't sign this contract."

Colonel Parker spread his hands and said, "No, don't do this. If you have something to discuss, okay. Since you want to be their agent, then you can be their agent. If you win, how about we sign a contract?"

"What contract?" Bart asked strangely.

"I still have a lot of company resources on hand, so why not do this. You authorize me and I will help you contact those big companies. For example, companies like RCA and CBS can do it. You can choose whatever you want. If you want to ask, I will discuss it for you."

"I authorize you to talk about it?" The Carpenters didn't understand the concept. They couldn't see any benefits of Colonel Parker here.

"Yes, as long as I get your authorization, I can talk to those companies. It's much better than waiting for others to come to discuss, and the conditions for this negotiation will definitely be better than for you to negotiate yourself."

"Can you ensure all the requests we made?" Angel asked.

"You can definitely ensure your request, you don't have to worry about this. I am speaking from your side, and of course I have to think about you." Colonel Parker said swore.

"This method seems to be good." After hearing this, Bart was a little moved, and he almost agreed. Fortunately, Angel stopped him.

"The children are going to make the decision on this matter, Alex, what do you think? If you want to sign, then sign!" Angel decided to let his son say that they had agreed to all the conditions they had put forward before, and it seemed that he had no reason to object.

"It's okay to sign a contract, but we must give us a 200,000 yuan authorization fee, and pay it in one lump sum!" Alex suddenly said, and at the end he added: "Oh USD! 200,000 USD!"

After hearing Alex's words, Colonel Parker looked as if he had been punched. He was about to be happy, but he didn't expect that a basin of cold water would be poured out head-on.

"2...200,000?" Colonel Parker wondered if he had heard it wrong.

"200,000 US dollars?" The Carpenters and his wife were shocked by their son's offer. They never thought how much 200,000 would be. They originally thought that the authorization fee of tens of thousands of dollars would be a very high price. Unexpectedly, the price Alex would ask for was so high!

The 200,000 in this era is not the 200,000 in later generations, nor 200,000 yuan, but 200,000 US dollars. In the 1950s, the purchasing power of the US dollar was still very strong. At this time, the Bretton Woods monetary system had not collapsed yet, and 35 US dollars could still be exchanged for one ounce of gold. In other words, 200,000 US dollars can be exchanged for almost 5 kilograms of gold. The names of US dollars, US dollars, and US dollars are not for nothing.

"You are right, I'm helping you. Why do you want me to give you money?" Colonel Parker shouted aggrievedly.

"Didn't you say we want to authorize you? Then you should give us an authorization fee. Without an authorization fee, we dare to help us talk to you. If the talk breaks down or something unexpected happens, who will be the loss?"

Faced with Colonel Parker's disguise, Alex was unwavering, and he refused to give up on this condition.

"Then your authorization fee is too high. It really costs $200,000? Can't you lose some?"

"Yes, it's only $200,000! Richard and I wouldn't consider signing a contract with any company before we got this amount!" After Alex threw this over, he ignored Colonel Parker and left here.

"You...you..." Colonel Parker's smiling face froze and almost cursed. He doubted whether he had been fooled by Alex, otherwise how could anyone offer such a ridiculous price.

"Sorry!" Bart looked at Colonel Parker apologetically and explained: "Alex was born with his own opinions. Although he didn't talk much, he would always do what he decided."

"Since Alex and the others have decided like this, it is not easy for us parents to force them." Angel said with a pity on his face.

"Huh! That's all I have to do." Colonel Parker suppressed his anger and did not take it as an attack. However, he still said before leaving: "You should consider it! The conditions I gave are the best, and I believe no one will give such high conditions anymore. It's not that 200,000 US dollars cannot be given, but it's just that I have to do it step by step. I will give it to you sooner or later, even 1 million can be given."

"Yes, yes, we will tell him!" The Carpenters nodded repeatedly. They also felt that the price of Alex was like a lion's mouth. No one could afford the authorization fee of $200,000.

When Colonel Parker left, Angel suddenly said, "This guy is too cunning!"

Bart looked at her in surprise, wondering why she commented on Colonel Parker like this.

Angel gave Bart a blank look and said angrily: "Don't you see it yet? He wants to make a fortune! As long as he gets our authorization, he will go to other companies to sell it, and it will probably be more than this price!"

"Can it really cost $200,000?" Bart was a little moved after hearing this and wanted to bring Colonel Parker back to talk.

"Don't underestimate the value of Alex and others. I guess it's definitely more than this price."

"It's $200,000, I don't seem to have seen that much money in my life."

"Okay, stop talking. You're still dying. I think Alex has a plan in his heart, so he'd better listen to him."

Yes, Alex has already figured it out during this period. It is better to work for yourself than to work for others. Whether it is selling 200,000 or 1 million, it is selling his future at a low price. He believes that as long as he has a platform, he can earn millions.
