Chapter 276
Accepting Jaylen was actually not an easy matter.
First of all, President Wu is a hurdle that cannot be bypassed.
If Jiang Yan wanted someone directly with him, with Zongxian Wu's shrewd appearance, there is a high probability that Jiang Yan would not be able to win him today.
However, in the original time and space, Wu Zongxian encountered an economic crisis in 02 and had no money, so he packaged and sold Jay, who was already popular at that time, and other singers.
Only sold for 3 million Taiwan dollars, about 6000 million yuan.
And this also made Jay and Zongxian Wu fall out.
One is emotional, and the other is only business.
If Jiang Yan had taken him down at that time, the business would have been a blood profit.
But some things don't count that way.
If Jiang Yan hadn't had an intersection with Jay Chou today, it would have been okay, but now that there is an intersection, many things will be different in the future.
As for Zongxian Wu, Jiang Yan is absolutely sure that when he returns to Wanwan, his big mouth will definitely tell about his appreciation of Jay.
Appreciated by the international superstar Jiang Yan, and he is also under Wu Zongxian, it's no wonder that Jay Chou didn't make his debut early.
There is a big difference between debuting one year earlier and one year later at the turn of the century.
The most important of these are the costs and benefits of publishing records.
This year, the Internet mp3 has not yet come out, and releasing records is still a matter of making money.
But next year, when online music begins to take over, the profit margins for releasing records will decline rapidly.
This is also the cause of Wu Zongxian's economic crisis in 02.
There are a bunch of singers in the company, only he and Jay Chou are making money, the others are all wrongdoers, so they can't lose money.
In addition, Jiang Yan also considered that if Jay was taken under his command, it might be a good thing for him, but it might be really stressful for Jay.
If he doesn't succeed, people will say that he can't get ahead under Jiang Yan's hands and is useless.
He succeeded, and people would say that it was Jiang Yan's credit.
Jay is also extremely talented, it would be fine if he was an ordinary singer, but for someone like Jay, who knows what things he doesn't want to see will happen after a long time.
So the matter of accepting Jay is actually quite complicated.
After thinking about it again and again, Jiang Yan felt that it was best to use another method.
So he dragged Jay to find Zongxian Wu.
Zongxian Wu is chatting with Wang Jing and others at the moment.
This guy is actually okay, but he has a big mouth.
"How was the chat?"
Seeing Jiang Yan coming, Wu Zongxian asked directly.
Just as Jiang Yan thought, if Jay Chou really gets Jiang Yan's appreciation, it will benefit him enormously.
So Jiang Yan saw him like this, which really determined the next plan.
So then he directly said to Wu Zongxian:
"Mr. Wu, I want this person, let's make an offer!"
Wu Zongxian was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then the calculation in his heart began to rattle.
In less than a second, he was sure that Jay couldn't give it.
No amount of money will be given, unless it is a sky-high price!
After making up his mind, he pulled Jiang Yan aside and said:
"I am very optimistic about this child, and I don't want to sell it."
"You tell me the number." Jiang Yan didn't talk nonsense.
"It's embarrassing..." Wu Zongxian rolled his eyes.
"100 million US dollars." Jiang Yan directly called out the price.
"This, no, I promised his mother." Zongxian Wu shook his head.
"200 million." Jiang Yan continued to bid.
"Oh Mr. Jiang, you're making things difficult for me!" Mr. Wu continued shaking his head.
200 million US dollars is already a lot, but he still feels that it is not enough, so he waits for Jiang Yan to continue to bid.
However, Jiang Yan gave up:
"Hey, it's a pity, it seems that this business has nothing to do."
This made Zongxian Wu a little dumbfounded, why don't you continue to sell, and another 100 million, no, 50 will do.
It's a pity that Jiang Yan has made up his mind, and he said regretfully: "Forget it, if you don't want to give it to me, you don't have to force it, but you have to agree to one condition."
"What conditions?"
"You let him come to me to study for a period of time, I am very optimistic about him."
"Really?!" Zongxian Wu suddenly became ecstatic.
This is exactly what he meant.
To be able to study with Jiang Yan for a period of time is to be gilded. Jay Chou has a bright future ahead.
So he agreed directly.
Jiang Yan is happy, but he also has three rules, not to hype too much, not to rush to release an album, and he will have the priority to sign contracts in the future.
Wu Zongxian agreed after thinking for a while.
Among these three things, except for the last one, which he thinks is unlikely to happen, he actually agrees with the other two.
So it was settled.
On the surface, Jiang Yan was at a disadvantage in this matter.
But Jiang Yan felt that for people like Jay Chou, interests are always inferior to feelings.
Let Jay "study" with him for free for a year. There is no interest binding, only mutual appreciation, without asking for anything in return.
After Jay became popular in the future, what he got was far more important than the benefits.
Sure enough, after Jay knew that Jiang Yan didn't ask for anything in return, but only hoped to teach him, he respected Jiang Yan even more.
"Brother Yan, thank you."
"Thank you, I just can't afford the money."
"I still have to thank you." Jay continued to thank with a smile.
This is the first time he laughed today.
Jiang Yan smiled and waved his hands: "Then you should study hard, Hualiu will rely on you in the future!"
"What about you?" Jen asked.
"Me? Naturally, I'll be an extra performer."
"Ensemble?"
"That's right, this is my first lesson here, you'll know it when you get back to Hengdian!"
"...Oh well."
. . . . . .
Jay's affairs were settled, and later Jay recommended Wenshan to Jiang Yan, his master.
Looking at the thick book of lyrics, Jiang Yan was naturally "interested", so he agreed that Wen Shan could go to Hengdian together to learn from him.
So far, Jay's affairs have been settled in a non-interest-related manner.
In Jiang Yan's opinion, this result is the best, only the relationship between bosom friend and master-student, nothing else.
Maybe there will be a good story in the future.
As for future competition?
Jiang Yan has already decided that after the cooperation with Warner is over, let's stop slowly in terms of music.
In the final analysis, he still makes music for the sake of progress, and the progress of MV is far less than that of movies and TV series, so why always take up time.
Afterwards, Jiang Yan chatted with Wu Jing and others about the movie for a while, and the group set off for the awards ceremony.
Today is the 18th Hong Kong Film Awards Presentation Ceremony.
This year's awards ceremony was said by the media to be the most suspenseful one.
Because there was the milestone movie "Infernal Affairs", and there were no good opponents in the same year.
So the best film, best screenwriter, best actor and best original film music have basically been locked.
The rest are not bad, but they are a bit light compared to the above four items, but there is a high possibility that they will be taken over by "Infernal Affairs".
Of course, the lack of suspense does not mean that the ratings will drop.
Because if all four of these items were scored, Jiang Yan would be able to appear on stage at least twice.
Jiang Yan, screenwriter and project initiator of "Infernal Affairs".
He is also an international superstar who has overwhelmed the world of European and American pop music.
Its popularity in Xiangjiang may still not be comparable to the Four Heavenly Kings, but its popularity is definitely the largest, and it is the kind that breaks through the sky.
Why, because apart from his own fame, Jiang Yan also had a scandal today.
And the target of the scandal turned out to be Wang Fei.
