American Entertainment: Taylor Swift wrote a song for the beginning

Chapter 128 Announcement (Subscription Request)

"If you are not satisfied with the agreement and feel that I am cheating you, then go find a lawyer now. If you want to fight... Beric!" Ryan shouted outside the door.

Bellick, dressed in a suit and tie, opened the door with two of his men. The three muscular men were full of oppression, and Ellie's boyfriend was so scared that his neck shrank.

"I just want to help your girlfriend realize her dream. Profit sharing is common practice in the industry. You have released singles on Island Records, so I think you should be aware of this. As for the length of the contract, look at Taylor Swift. Who do you think has more potential, Ellie Goulding or Taylor Swift a few years ago?" Ryan asked with a smile.

After the hard approach, it was time to resort to the soft approach. After all, his goal was just to sign a contract, not to push someone into a desperate situation.

"Allie is no worse than Taylor Swift back then!" said Allie's boyfriend.

"Do you believe that?" Ryan sneered.

"I..." Ellie's boyfriend couldn't say any more.

"I only have one request, you have to be the producer of my future albums, and... you have to give me songs to sing." Ellie calmed down and made her own request, which seemed much more practical.

"Of course, after the signing is completed, not only me, but also Taylor may give you songs. Helping you is helping ourselves. I think you understand this." Ryan persuaded.

Taylor has abandoned a lot of songs, not because the quality of these songs is too bad, but because Taylor has too many songs of his own.

"I have one last question. Will you sign other female singers in the future?" Ailie asked another key question.

"Then you can only gamble. Bet that I'm unlucky and can't find a newcomer with the same potential as you." Ryan supported his chin with one hand.

"My questions are over." Ellie looked at her boyfriend.

"Mr. Ryan... I was a little impulsive just now. I apologize to you." Her boyfriend laughed again, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Actually, I'm also a DJ. I think I'm more suitable for your record company than Ellie, and I can also perform live DJ performances." He rubbed his hands.

"The DJ performances are already scheduled for next year. I'll contact you if there's anything I need." Ryan dismissed him with just one sentence.

Don't forget that Ryan is also involved in the performance company jointly established by AEG and Spenny Records. Ryan will not treat his colleagues unfairly and is very generous in performance fees. In addition, Bad Room is very popular in Florida, and those "Top 100 DJs" are lining up to perform in Bad Room. Amin's performance has already been confirmed.

In a few years, the Bad Room will become like the "Music Pavilion", a top-level nightclub with a special status in the industry!
Even Joel doesn’t have many opportunities to play now and can only be an equipment manager, let alone a little-known DJ outside.

"Okay." He nodded.

"Why do you want to start producing the first single?" Ryan asked when he saw that the conversation was almost over.

Ally pointed to her boyfriend and said, "Frank Musick introduced me to a producer, Starsmith. I talked to him a few times and already had a formed idea, but I needed money to record and produce it."

"Are there any samples?"

"Yes, the working title is Under the Sheets."

"Send it to me, I'll listen to it, and if it's okay, I'll pay you an advance. Where are you going to finish recording it?"

"London."

"can."

Ryan asked his men to take the two to complete the signing. As for Kevin Harris, although there was still a month left in his contract, he had already started working on new songs.

Then Ryan continued to interview. He has been interviewing nightclubs, legal consultants, record companies, clerks, waiters, except for cleaning staff, he basically hired directly from the boss. In principle, fans are given priority. Ryan can often tell whether the other party is a real fan by asking a few questions.

This led to another unique phenomenon: except for the core positions under Scott, most of the other positions were filled by women. Ryan was of course happy about this good thing. Every day when the front desk saw him, he smiled brightly, and he was more motivated to work. The atmosphere was also very good, after all, everyone had almost the same hobbies.

"Ryan, you have to see this." Manager Sean entered the office, bag in hand.

Ryan took a look inside and saw syringes and various strange instruments. It was obvious what they were used for in a nightclub.

Although Ryan had zero tolerance for this thing from the beginning, all kinds of warnings and slogans were posted everywhere from the entrance to the corridor, and nightclub staff, no matter who they were, had to stop it as long as they saw it, and there were many conflicts in the nightclub every night. But this thing has already spread and it is difficult to eradicate it.

"We have to install a complete set of surveillance cameras to monitor the entire main hall without blind spots. We also need to set up a special patrol team to stop any behavior of incest in public for the first time. If it happens the second time, we will call the police and put them on the blacklist. They will not be allowed to enter the nightclub in the future. In addition, we will set up test strips at the gate for testing, and those who test positive will be denied entry. Double testing!" Ryan ordered. He had no control over what was happening outside, but in his own territory, this thing had to be completely eliminated and he would not tolerate it.

"What? Ryan, surveillance is okay since it's a public area, but... aren't test strips a bit too harsh? If one person in a group of people has a problem, what about the others?" Sean laughed.

If Ryan really does this, it will be a historic first.

"And this will affect the flow of customers. Although our business is still booming now, maybe no one will come to play all of a sudden," Sean reminded.

"No, it's not booming, it's too booming." Ryan shook his head: "We are not short of customers now, but we have too many customers. If we filter out some of the rubbish, the pressure on our people will be less."

"I understand. I'll do as you say." Sean nodded and walked out of the office with the plastic bag.

Then Ryan got another call from Tracy.

"Ryan, the set has already started to be built, and the crew has also completed preparations. Everyone is asking when the work will start?" Terry said. She and Julie have been busy with this matter for a while, and Ryan has been a hands-off boss except for contributing the script.

“How many days will it take to complete the scene construction?”

"It can be done in five days at the fastest, or until next week if it's slow."

"So, we have to start screening the actors now." Ryan took a breath.

"That's right. Julie said that there will be an industry conference soon after the Christmas holiday. Advertisers, TV stations, and producers will all send people to attend. We have to shoot the pilot episode before then. There isn't much time left."

"I see. Speaking of choosing actors..." Ryan groaned.

"You are the investor and the creator, so you have the final say. Julie and I only have the right to make suggestions, not the right to decide," said Terry.

"It should be so..." Ryan smiled.

"If you can confirm the time, I'll let Julie spread the news. She knows a lot of agents."

“This week.”

"See you in Los Angeles then."

"no problem."

Ryan had just put down his phone when another call came in. Ryan picked it up and was slightly surprised.

"Big star, I have a big announcement, are you interested?" Ryan's agent in the modeling industry, the director of NEXT Models, Faith's smiling voice came from the other end of the phone.

　Let me talk about it, the main focus is still on songs.
