The most popular king in the world

Chapter 120 The low-key local tyrant

Ge Jinghui has been really worried recently, mainly because in the first month of the new year, Bai Rui Audio has received much less work than in the past. Although the income and expenditure are still in balance, and there is even a slight surplus, he can see through it. It's really not business material.

In fact, Bai Rui Audio has a good reputation in the industry. After all, there are complete facilities and high-end appliances here, and Ge Jinghui's professional level is also well-known.At first, many musicians in the circle also prefer to seek cooperation with him.

Ordinarily, it is not difficult to make Berry a well-known brand in the industry if it maintains a good reputation like this.But Ge Jinghui made a mistake. He didn't understand the psychology of these Gods of Wealth. He started to open up to the public outside the circle for the purpose of opening up new sources of income for the recording studio.

In this way, Bai Rui's compulsion was lowered in a straight line.Any artist in the industry would not want two passers-by to appear suddenly while he was recording, watching him work like a panda, and chasing after his ass asking for an autograph and a group photo, right?

Although Ge Jinghui realized this later, word of mouth that his recording studio was "not professional enough" had already spread in the circle, and as a result, the cooperation from the circle suddenly decreased a lot.

Even though he lost some customers, it wouldn't make him unable to make ends meet, but he was only busy eating and drinking, so why did Ge Jinghui go through such a hassle?If it's just for this purpose, how good is it for him to put the money he invested in the recording studio in the bank to earn interest?

Now when Shao Yang suddenly mentioned that he wanted to buy his own recording studio, Ge Jinghui suddenly became interested.He has a good relationship with Shao Yang and Dong Li, and Ge Jinghui also admires Shao Yang's talent in music. It can even be said that they have a little sympathy for each other.

Ge Jinghui thought, if Li Shao really intends to acquire Berry, then not only will he not have to leave the industry he loves, but he will also save the burden of management. Most importantly, he is looking forward to working with Shao Yang , What kind of sparks can be wiped out.

However, all of this can be replayed, because the only thing in his mind now is another sentence from Shao Yang—record a few songs!
Ge Jinghui is very clear about Shao Yang's level. Leaving aside his singing skills, this guy's creative ability is really super-defying.

Ge Jinghui has handled more than one song by Shao Yang, but every time he creates a work, Ge Jinghui has a refreshing feeling.Now this guy is here again, and he just opens his mouth to 'record a few songs', which is against the sky!

"Let's go, Shao Yang, you come into the booth with me, have you brought the accompaniment and the music score? Hurry up and show it to me."

Ge Jinghui pulled Shao Yang with excitement and wanted to leave. As soon as this workaholic heard that Shao Yang had a new work, he immediately stopped feeling depressed and stopped drinking tea. He immediately entered the working state.

"I said, why are you in a hurry! We'll talk about the recording of the song later, and we'll talk about the other thing first."

Shao Yang broke free from Ge Jinghui's grip on his hand, looked at Wang Lei and An An with a smile, and waited for their reply.

Speaking of it, An An and Wang Lei's conditions are good. The men are handsome and the women are beautiful. The reason why they haven't become popular for so many years is probably a chance and a little bit of luck.Of course, these two people have few works that can be sold, which is also one of the important weaknesses.

"I said Shao Yang, are you kidding me? Our company has given up on me, thinking that I am old and no longer have the conditions to become famous. Now you say to sign me, do you have so much confidence in me? ? Brother is not young anymore, and his psychological endurance is poor, so don't make fun of me."

After all, Wang Lei is an artist who has made his debut, so he has to react from the shock faster than An An.Although Shao Yang said that he intends to sign him, his confidence in himself is indeed not very high.

And he was also afraid that Shao Yang would miss him. If Shao Yang lost money on him, how could he have the nerve to meet him in the future.

Shao Yang pressed Lao Ge, who was scratching his ears and cheeks, on the sofa, motioned him to be calm, and then replied seriously: "Actually, I was the first to propose the signing of Lei Zi, you and sister An. I have an idea, I want the two of you to form a group, there are very few male and female groups in the Chinese music scene, and there are not even any outstanding ones, so as long as there are good works to support the two of you, there should be a big market."

"Combination? Me and Lei Zi?"

At this time, An An has come to her senses, and she is naturally quite concerned about her future and future.But, if they are combined with Lei Zi, what can they sing?The two people's voices don't match the style of the music. They are forced to knead together, can they be coordinated?
"Yes! It's the combination! Actually, Aunt Xin wanted to come over to meet you today, but unfortunately, she had something to do and couldn't come here, so I showed her some performance videos of the two of you, and Aunt Xin also thought it was okay. Give it a try, now it's up to you two."

Wang Lei and An An heard what Shao Yang said, and knew that the other party was serious. It's just that they are an outdated rock singer and a resident singer in a bar that has never been popular. Together, they can really produce the kind of music that Shao Yang said. chemistry?
Seeing that the two were still hesitating, Shao Yang understood that it wasn't that they didn't want to sign with Li Shao, but because they lacked confidence, and from the perspective of friends, they were afraid that they might be mistaken and cause Li Shao to lose money.

"Listen to me, both of you, if you agree to form a group and sign to Li Shao, then Li Shao will give you a three-year 400 million brokerage contract, with a signing fee of 100 million, and Li Shao can guarantee that, In the next three years, I will produce two albums for the combination of the two of you. As for commercial performances, Li Shao will try my best to arrange, and Li Shao will only charge a symbolic 10% of the revenue share."

"Li Shao has only two requirements for you, one is to own 50% of your portrait rights, and the other is to set a higher liquidated damages for your contract, which should be fifteen to twenty of the sum of your contract value plus signing fee In addition, Li Shao will not set any breach of contract clauses for the two of you. Of course, breaking the law and causing the destruction of the star path must be counted as a breach of contract."

When Wang Lei and An An heard Shao Yang's words, their eyeballs lit up instantly as if a 500-watt light bulb had been installed.

Two albums are given in three years, the signing fee and the contract are worth 500 million in total, and commercial performances can get 50% of the proceeds, as long as they have [-]% of their portrait rights.Even if the liquidated damages are set relatively high, this is equivalent to giving yourself money for nothing.

Not to mention that An An is a resident singer in a bar, even Wang Lei has been a signed singer with the company for these years, and he hasn't earned this amount.

After all, he had only been popular for a while, and he was still the kind of singer who was not popular, but at that time the copyright of the work was in the hands of the company, and he didn't get any money.Later, when he passed away, his income became even more meager.

Now that his contract has expired and the company will not renew his contract, he is almost going to rely on forwarding the lottery to maintain a poor life.

As for An An, a person who can't even pay the rent soon, a girl who is about to be driven to the street by the landlord, does she have a choice?500 million in three years!
What did she have to do to ensure that she would earn more than 1095 yuan every day for 4566 days?Even if you are shameless and go to sea, you still need to rest when you catch up with your relatives, right?

"Excuse me, I want to know, Shao Yang, did you personally produce the two albums you promised Lei Zi and An An?" The future of Zizi and An'an is still very concerned.

Seeing that Shao Yang smiled and shook his head when he heard the words, Ge Jinghui was disappointed, but thinking about it, no matter how talented Shao Yang is, his inspiration will never be exhausted, and Shao Yang is also an artist himself. Works must first satisfy themselves.

Seeing the regretful expression on Lao Ge's face, Shao Yang knew that this guy must be thinking badly, so he stopped teasing him on purpose, and said with a laugh: "I'm not a music producer, I can fuck ass, make music Of course you still have to come, but I will take care of the creation.”

As soon as Shao Yang said this, the spirits of the three people in front of him were lifted. They are not fools. They have been in the society for so many years, and they all play music. How good is Shao Yang's creative ability? It is obvious to all.

Now that Shao Yang has made a big promise, promising to be fully responsible for the creation of the album after the combination of the two, he would be a fool if he didn't accept it.This kind of opportunity may be just once in their life, and there will be no next shop after passing this village.

"I have no problem, I can sign a contract with Li Shao at any time! I have to call you the boss in the future, right? I wish us a happy cooperation!"

An'an was the first to make a decision. Anyway, she was an unknown resident singer in a bar, and a lonely North drifter, so she had nothing to worry about.

"I'm OK too! You can sign a contract at any time! Hello boss, please take care of me in the future."

Wang Lei finally made a decision. Speaking of which, he was really a little unwilling. Compared with the previous company letting him turn behind the scenes, Wang Lei still hopes to stand in front of the stage. He likes to stand under the spotlight to show the audience, and also Like to enjoy people's flowers and applause.He is not young anymore, this may be his last chance.

Even if it's not for money, but for Shao Yang's promise to create two albums with his own hands, he also wants to make a fortune. He wants to prove to those who look down on him that he, Wang Lei, can actually do it.

"NONONO! Our work is work, and personal friendship is personal friendship. In private, you should still call me by my name as before. I don't want to sign two generals back to the company, but lose two friends in my life." Shao Yang Said to the two of them solemnly.

In fact, Shao Yang also knows that as long as Wang Lei and An An sign with Li Shao, the change in their relationship will come sooner or later. After all, there are no rules, but as friends, Shao Yang still sincerely hopes that this day will be later. arrival.

After taking care of Lei Zi and An An, Shao Yang finally set his sights on Ge Jinghui.

"Old Ge, how about it? Do you want to consider selling Bai Rui to me, and then come to Li Shao as the music director?"

Ge Jinghui raised his left hand and scratched his cheek, then asked with doubts: "Shao Yang, are you sure you want to buy Bai Rui? You know it's not cheap!"

Shao Yang shrugged his shoulders, and then replied: "I know, not to mention the sound insulation and acoustic walls in your recording studio, just your Steinway, and the single voltage system you designed for that antique electric piano, I’m afraid it’s 300 million less? Does your U47 microphone with four tubes cost hundreds of thousands? And the 16 pairs of speakers on your wall are custom-made, right? A pair of hundreds of thousands? Let’s talk about your mixing console. I’m afraid it’s going to be a sky-high price, right? Tell me the number, I’m mentally prepared.”

Ge Jinghui didn't expect Shao Yang to be so proficient in these devices.To be honest, although his recording studio is not too big, every inch and every point of the design is really made by famous experts. What does this mean?It represents money, little brother!

However, he saw that Shao Yang had been talking for a long time, but he still didn't get to the point, so he reminded him a little embarrassedly: "Actually, everything is fine. The main reason is that this house is also under my name. It's the big head, and I don't plan to sell this house."

Shao Yang: "Old Ge, I misunderstood you. I didn't expect you to be such a low-key local tyrant. Nima, in this DC area where the average house price is nearly 12 square meters, you actually have a commercial apartment of more than 300 square meters. Use the house, admiration! The mountains are high and the rivers are long, see you in the future! Farewell!"

Wang Lei and An An were also completely dumbfounded. They always thought that Lao Ge's house was rented. Who would have thought that this guy is so rich. Even if this apartment was bought a few years ago, it would be 4000 less. Ten thousand.

"More than 4000 million! More than 4000 million! If I have so much money, I still dream of being a fart star? No, I'm afraid I won't even have a dream, right? Because I wake up laughing every day when I sleep! Da Ge , I just want to ask, do you still lack lovers, lovers, bed partners and so on? Do you think I am okay? Can I recommend myself a pillow mat?"

Do you all think that it was An An who said this?Do not!You are wrong!The one who said this was Lei Zi, who was so funny. At this time, he was smiling coquettishly, holding an orchid finger in his right hand, making himself look like a little girl, which disgusted everyone present.

"roll!"

It wasn't Lao Ge who scolded Lei Zi so severely, but An An who had already pushed Shao Yang aside, half-stretched on Ge Jinghui's body.Facts have proved that landlords, local tyrants, etc., naturally have female attributes!

"It's not your turn to recommend a pillow mat. If Uncle Ge wants to play, he has to play with a beautiful woman like a flower like a jade. You are a fart! Fortunately, I was not knocked down by Shao Yang's 100 million before, and I saved the precious Otherwise, where would there be a chance to hook up with a local tyrant like Lao Ge?"

An An was also very playful at the moment, and couldn't help teasing Ge Jinghui with Wang Lei.Although Lao Ge looks more avant-garde, he is still quite conservative in his bones. He couldn't stand this, and he begged for mercy.

"Everyone, everyone, count me as wrong, okay? I made a mistake, and I admit the punishment! What do you say to eat tonight, I'll pay the bill, okay? Just ask you two not to torment me."

Lei Zi and An An were waiting for Lao Ge's words.However, how can a local tyrant of this level be captured alive with just one dinner?In the end, these two brazen bastards ate Lao Ge's big meal for a week, and their devastated little hearts could be considered as comfort.

In fact, if their stomachs could hold up, the two of them had planned to eat Lao Ge, an invisible local tycoon, for a month, but they wanted to kill the thief but they were powerless.

It's a miracle for the two of them to eat like this every day for a week. If they eat for a month, the two of them will definitely go to the hospital together because of overeating.

Of course, these are things for later, let us talk about the present.

In the end, Lao Ge agreed to Shao Yang's request, and after depreciating the sound effects of Bai Rui, he transferred it to Li Shao's studio at a price of 1200 million.

At the same time, he also agreed to Shao Yang's invitation to join Li Shao as the music director. As for Bai Rui's rent and his annual salary, Lao Ge only asked for a very low friendship price.

Speaking of it, he spent a huge amount of money to build a top domestic recording studio for his beloved music career.Now this recording studio has become a burden for him because of trivial business matters, which violates his original intention.

Now that Li Shao is willing to stand up and take over, he naturally wishes for it.Moreover, the reason why Ge Jinghui joined Li Shao, or Li Shao's greatest attraction to him was Shao Yang's extraordinary creative talent.

Ge Jinghui's biggest wish now is to personally create each classic created by Shao Yang and write his own legend in the music circle.
