After failing the college entrance examination, he became a big star

Chapter 23 Deal
Xu Qiaoling didn't know that Li Kai wanted to test her, she just thought that Li Kai wanted to hear her sing, so she smiled openly and said, "Of course, I can sing my previous single "Xia Xue". "

At night, there were very few passers-by on the road, and it was very quiet. Xu Qiaoling couldn't let go of her voice, and after a while, she sang half-voiced: "Our relationship once was like a hot summer. Behind the clouds, the sky is snowing
This is a sad song, Xu Qiaoling sang the whole song, seeing that Li Kai didn't react, her face was thoughtful, she thought about it, and asked: "Have you released any works before?"

Li opened his eyes and shook his head.

Xu Qiaoling was not surprised, she said firmly: "Generally, the market price of works by newcomers is [-] to [-], and I can offer [-]."

Two thousand, this price is pitifully low for the song itself, but it is not low for Li Kai's status.

Li opened his nose and apologized: "Miss Xu, the song "Our Love" is not suitable for you."

Xu Qiaoling looked surprised, did she refuse?I paid four or five times the asking price.

"Then I'll add another five hundred, or simply use the sharing model, and the sales of singles will be [-]%." Some dissatisfied with Li Kai's greed, but still unwilling to give up, there was a ruthless look in his eyes.

This time it was Li Kai's turn to be surprised. Divided into patterns and experience in previous lives, that was the treatment only well-known songwriters in the industry could get. Can this woman be the master of the record company?
"However, if you choose the sharing model, it can only be a contract between me and you, which is equivalent to selling the song to me personally, and then I will sign another contract with the record company."

Immediately, Xu Qiaoling's supplement made Li Kai suddenly understand that it turned out that Xu Qiaoling gave him [-]% of her singer's share.

Don't look at one percent, it's actually quite a lot. If an album sells millions of copies, if the original version is ten yuan, that's 1000 million, and one percent is one hundred thousand.

Of course, it is difficult to sell a single million copies, and the price is much lower than that of an album.

But no matter what, Xu Qiaoling was able to propose a split model, which shows that he attaches great importance to this song, and also shows his sincerity, but Li Kai still can't agree.

"Miss Xu, I didn't mean to say that this song is not suitable for you. The song "Our Love" needs a louder voice, and your voice is too soft, too soft."

Xu Qiaoling's complexion became unsightly, Li opened her eyes, sighed secretly, and sang: "Don't ask if you love me anymore, now I want to free the sky, leave this bound world, and no longer be lonely Oh."

"This sentence is at the end of the second chorus, the feeling of inner pain and pretending to be strong on the surface, especially the explosive high-pitched voice, your voice can't express it."

As a professional singer, Xu Qiaoling was obviously not convinced by Li Kai's conclusion. She cleared her throat and sang again. The strength of the sound is still not enough, try again.

The third time, the voice was strong enough, but it was full of strength, and it became a little harsh. A middle-aged woman was walking by, and she looked at her suddenly, her eyes seemed to be looking at a female ghost, not to mention how weird, she muttered He said something, it was not a good word anyway, and his pace quickly accelerated.

Xu Shi was shocked by the middle-aged woman's glance, and Xu Shi had a deeper understanding of her own voice. After three times, Xu Qiaoling did not continue, her brows were tightly frowned, and her face was a little discouraged. Looking at her, Li Kai knew that she I already knew it well, and I didn't make any further comments.

Frankly speaking, Xu Qiaoling's voice is unique, but it is not good in terms of conditions, especially the treble and forte are short boards, which dooms her to be unable to control the kind of voice that can make people's hearts tremble just by listening to it once. song.

"Your girlfriend's voice is indeed more suitable for this song than mine." Xu Qiaoling's brows loosened, and she forced a forced smile, but the disappointment in her eyes was hard to hide.

Li was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and laughed: "She is my partner, not my girlfriend. Without my chorus, she would not be able to sing to that effect."

Xu Qiaoling smiled a little more speechlessly, this big boy has a thick skin.

"Although it's a bit regrettable, I still want to thank you for giving me the opportunity. I wish you a good ranking in the final. It's getting late, so I'm leaving first."

An empty taxi came far away on the road, Xu Qiaoling waved her hand, and was about to leave when Li Kai suddenly said, "I have another song here, it should be quite suitable for you."

Xu Qiaoling paused: "Do you have other songs? No, you have songs suitable for me, are you sure?"

Li opened his head and nodded: "I'll hum a song, listen to it."

Then, he hummed "Short Hair". This song is not difficult, and the treble is also decorated with falsetto, but the emotion is delicate and evocative.

Xu Qiaoling's soft and slightly sad voice could not be more suitable.

After Li Kai finished singing, he found that Xu Qiaoling was staring at him without blinking, as if fascinated. He coughed and said, "Do you like this song?"

Xu Qiaoling came back to her senses, her eyes lit up quickly, like a weasel seeing a chicken, she swallowed: "I like it."

Li Kai smiled slightly, and said bluntly, "I can accept the sharing model, but I need to guarantee a minimum of 5000 yuan."

He further explained: "In other words, I sold this song to your record company. The contract price is 5000 yuan. I don't know how much resources the record company will invest in promoting it. Therefore, there must be a minimum guarantee."

"In addition, if you and I sign another contract, I don't care about the sales volume, just the sales volume. I don't charge extra for less than 10 copies. For more than 10 copies, I get a dime for each one, and the settlement is made every four weeks. , it only needs to be settled twice, and how the sales increase after eight weeks of release has nothing to do with me."

A guarantee of 5000 yuan, and above 10 yuan, each piece will be divided into 10 cents, that is, for every 1 more copies sold, Li Kai will be divided into [-] yuan. This share rate is far higher than [-]%. You know, single The price is much lower than the album, and there are promotional discounts and so on.

However, Xu Qiaoling only hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth, her eyes flashed with determination, and she nodded heavily: "Deal."

The two walked for a while, and sat in a tea room, asking for paper and pens. Li Kai spent more than half an hour silently writing down the lyrics and music, including the arrangement.

Xu Qiaoling took out 500 yuan as a deposit on the spot, and left her copy machine number. Li Kai wrote her a receipt, and left Xue Bing's phone number, and made an appointment to sign a formal contract tomorrow afternoon.

At this point, the transaction is considered completed.
