The two of them murmured for a while. Finally, Guo Zi arranged his hair with pride and came over in front of him.
"Hello, Eason, let's get to know it again. Now I'm my brother's temporary agent and I'll be in charge of the song's trade negotiations." Guo Ziyi said with a smile.
Chen Yijie is stunned for a moment. He also reaches out his hand and shakes Guo Ziyi. The atmosphere becomes formal.
Of course, it looks funny. Yang Yi, a 30-year-old uncle, sits at the back without saying a word. Instead, she lets a little fat man who doesn't have a full length of hair to stand out for him. And the big star Chen Yijie has no airs. This picture is too against the line!
"In fact, I don't know much about the mainland market." Chen Yijie took out a contract, looked at Yang Yi and Guo Ziyi and said sincerely, "before I came, my agent prepared this set of contracts."
Guo Ziyi took it and flipped it over. In fact, he did not contact this type of contract, but the boy's talent and wisdom quickly found the key point.
"You want to buy my brother's song for 50000 yuan? Is it too cheap? " Guo Ziyi curled his lips and said, "Eason, don't think I don't know what to do. At the beginning of the year, Hong Kong media also exposed that Liu Tianwang gave Lin Chiqing, who wrote his songs, a million dollars of retouching fee, let alone the copyright fee written in the contract."
Chen Yijie was stunned: "there is no comparison between them. Mr. Lin is the first ghost in Hong Kong City. He has written many classic works. But Mr. Yang, with all due respect, we have already given a high price for new people."
"But my brother is no ordinary new man!" Guo Ziyi gave a sly smile and said, "Eason, don't you think highly of this song? Otherwise, they would not have come to Jiangcheng in person, would they? "
In fact, Chen Yijie doesn't know how to negotiate. He usually does it by his agent. But this time he came in a hurry and his agent had to stay to deal with the mess he had left behind. So he went to battle alone.
"Yes, I like Mr. Yang's song very much." Chen Yijie said sincerely, "no matter in the circle of Hong Kong city or the mainland, there are very strict rules. I can get a copyright fee of up to 80000 yuan, which is impossible."
He was also afraid of Yang Yi's antipathy, and took the initiative to say: "of course, if Mr. Yang's song has a very good score, if you cooperate with us next time, this amount will be increased a lot! Because Mr. Yang, you were no longer a new man at that time. "
"Why don't you ask my brother to write you a song that is close to being sold next time?" Guo Ziyi said with a smile, "my brother's song, can let you be the main song. It's really painful to sell it cheaply."
Chen Yijie was helpless. He felt that the little fat man in front of him was too cunning. He was a little Frank. He couldn't get around and said, "what do you think of it?"
Guo Ziyi takes a look at Yang Yi, who nods slightly.
As they had discussed before, Yang Yi did not intend to offer any harsh conditions. After all, he was recommended by Mr. Hu. He inherited such a great favor from the old man, and it was not Yang Yi's style to open his mouth with a lion.
Guo Ziyi understood it. He coughed twice and said, "Eason, you have your difficulties. I don't understand. Well, how about changing the condition and increasing the share ratio? "
"How to improve it?"
Guo Ziyi patted his chest and said boldly, "Eason, we won't take advantage of you either. If this song doesn't get you platinum records, our share will be calculated according to 8% of the original contract."
The world's copyright income is very high, which is reflected in the sales share. The record companies are still the big players. However, they are not as terrible as Yang Yi's previous life. Record companies can take up 40% of the share, and record stores or other channels can share 15% to 20%.
The remaining 40% is subdivided by singers, songwriters, producers and copyright associations.
The share of copyright association is very high, reaching 2%, but it is precisely because of this that they have enough financial resources to maintain the operation of this huge organization, so that creators can get their due returns!
It depends on the negotiation between the creators and the record companies. However, 8% is really just a new standard. After all, the authors of Ci and Qu each account for 4%, which is relatively rare in mainland China!
Of course, the 8% still needs to be based on the number of these songs in the album, plus the performance of Yang Yi's song, through a complex weighted algorithm, in order to accurately calculate Yang Yi's share of income.
"As far as I know, Eason hasn't made a platinum album in three years, has he?" Guo Ziyi said to the point.
Chen Yijie nodded silently. He did not deny that he was eager to return to the peak.
"If you can top the platinum album this time, we ask for a 16% share Guo Ziyi said astonishingly, "this is to be written into the contract!"
"Sixteen percent?" Chen Yijie was surprised, "this is too much! None of the first-line writers of Ci and Qu can get this proportion. "16% is really high. As a singer, Chen Yijie can only get 15% to 20% of the total. However, the 20% high score is the state he used to be in when he was at the peak of Hong Kong City.
"Eason, what we're talking about is that after we've achieved something! If my brother's songs can help you sell a platinum disc, do you think it's not worth the share? " Guo Zikui said, "if it's eight percent, it's not."
Chen Yijie smiles bitterly. He feels that in the negotiation with Guo Ziyi, he is totally at a disadvantage. Guo Ziyi has firmly grasped his psychology and is eager to prove himself.
"I need to make a phone call and talk to the company." Chen Yijie stood up and said in a wooden voice.
After Chen Yijie walked away, Guo Ziyi breathed a long sigh of relief, and his serious expression turned to be bluffing: "my God, I'm so nervous."
Yang Yi slapped him on the shoulder and gave him a thumbs up.
"Brother Yang, do you think I can work so hard that I don't have to work later?" Guo Ziyi pushed out his face and said with a smile.
Yang Yi squints, ha ha a smile: "no way."
"Ah? Not really Guo Ziyi fell down on the sofa and howled, "big man, I have no merit, but also have hard work!"
Yang Yi's mouth showed a trace of smile, he said: "the work is dry, but look at you so hard, today to give you the cooking style dinner!"
This was the biggest encouragement. Guo Ziyi got up again in surprise: "really? Then I'll have seven well done fried steak, fried foie gras and baked snails... "
Yang Yi rolled her eyes and said, "no foie gras, no snails. What do I do, what do you eat?"
Also goose liver, snail, Yang Yi himself want to eat it! However, in Jiangcheng, he has not yet figured out where to buy this top-grade food.
