Yang Yunfan was in class when he suddenly saw the form teacher appear at the door of the classroom with a middle-aged man in his forties who looked refined and wore black-rimmed glasses.
"Yang Yunfan, come out for a moment. Someone is looking for you.”The homeroom teacher said to Yang Yunfan with a smile.
Yang Yunfan was confused. Could it be that this middle-aged man was looking for him? But I don't know him?
He got up and left with doubts. When they arrived at the office, the form teacher made a cup of tea for the middle-aged man and said with a smile,"You guys have a good chat. I'll go out first. This student of mine really has the potential to be a star!”
"Teacher…"
Yang Yunfan did not know what he meant by leaving him alone here.
The homeroom teacher smiled at Yang Yunfan and said,"It's okay. This uncle wants to have a good chat with you. He's Director Xia of Jin Sheng Records.”
With that, she left.
Yang Yunfan was suspicious. It seemed to be very famous? Why are they looking for me?
"Hello, I'm Xia Wen, the director of Jin Sheng Records. Are you Yang Yunfan? Did you compose the song 'Free as a Dream'?”Xia Wen asked the child in front of him with a smile without any pressure.
Yang Yunfan nodded and said,"Yes." What's wrong?"
Xia Wen smiled." Hehe, I've really had a hard time looking for you." This song of yours is really well written! Your homeroom teacher just showed me the live video of your performance that day. I think you sang very well!”
"Thank you for the compliment." Yang Yunfan said lightly. He thought to himself, if he praised me so much, could it be that…he plans to sign me and become a singer of Jin Sheng Records?
Obviously, Yang Yunfan was thinking too much.
Xia Wen didn't want to spend time packaging and promoting a new rookie! His purpose for coming here was naturally very simple. He wanted to buy the copyright of this song and then let a famous singer in the company perform it. He wanted to release it as a single and hit the major music charts.
Hence, Xia Wen said,"The purpose of my visit this time is to buy the copyright of your song." In addition, our company admires your talent. If you have any new creations in the future, you can come to me at Jinsheng Records. The price we will pay you will not be low.”
Yang Yunfan finally understood. Xia Wen was here to buy songs and not to sign him as he thought. It seemed like he was overthinking things. However, even if Xia Wen really wanted to sign him as a singer, he would not agree because his ambition was not here. His goal and position were very clear. When the time came, he would develop in the film and television industry. He could also develop in variety shows. He would be more than happy to play music…
Therefore, he did not ask about the price at all and said,"I'm sorry, Mr. Xia. I won't sell this song.”
Xia Wen was stunned for a moment before saying,""Why aren't you selling? You haven't heard my price yet.”
Yang Yunfan smiled and said,"I won't sell it at any price because I don't have such plans at all."”
There was a reason for not selling it. In this time and space, it was sometimes wise to keep the copyright of a song firmly in one's hands.
This was because if other celebrities and singers wanted to perform this song at a concert or at other commercial events, they had to pay Yang Yunfan a lump sum of money. Although it was not much, if many celebrities liked to perform this song, then it would accumulate. The money Yang Yunfan received would definitely be more than selling the copyright in one go.
Of course, if you couldn't buy the copyright, you could also secretly perform it. However, if the creator found out and had evidence, then you could see him in court!
Therefore, when Xia Wen saw his rejection, he thought that Yang Yunfan might have considered this reason. After all, this song was very popular among the students now!
It seemed that this high school student was very business-minded! Xia Wen began to take this opponent seriously. He said,"Student Yang Yunfan, how about this? I'll pay 200,000 yuan for the copyright of your song. What do you think? This was much better than holding the copyright in your hands and waiting for income! In addition, I'll agree to another condition of yours. In the next five years, you'll compose at least 50 songs for me every year. I'll definitely pick out three of them and buy the copyright at the market price. What do you think?”
Yang Yunfan almost laughed out loud. That was too insincere. Let's put it this way. Not only am I not selling this song, I want to sing it myself if I have the chance. Therefore, there is no room for negotiation between us.”
Xia Wen was stunned. He still wanted to sing this song himself? This kid's ambition was really high!
He calculated in his heart and smiled."Since you don't want to sell it and want to sing it yourself, then give the production rights to this song to our company! We'll sign an agreement. Our company will take 70% of the revenue from this song, and the rest will go to you. Of course, this is after deducting the production costs. If there are any losses, we will still share them according to this ratio.”
"60 - 40, I'll split it 60 and your company will split it 40! Alright, I'm going to class. Think carefully before replying!”
Yang Yunfan stood up, smiled at Xia Wen, and left under his shocked gaze...
As the director of Jin Sheng Records, Xia Wen had dealt with all kinds of creators, but Yang Yunfan was the youngest and most overbearing person he had ever seen in his life!
Were the youngsters nowadays all so arrogant? Wasn't this world changing too quickly?
Xia Wen sat in his seat. After a moment of confusion, he began to calculate whether the risk of producing this song for Yang Yunfan was high and how much profit there was. After careful calculation, based on his many years of experience, he realized that even if he split the profits according to 40 - 60%, Jin Sheng would still make a lot of money.
But if he went to find Yang Yunfan now, he would lose face…Although he had the right to make decisions in this aspect in the company, he had to go back first and come back tomorrow or the day after…
"Yang Yunfan, I heard that he's the director of Jinsheng Records? Don't tell me he's looking for you to sign a contract with him?!”
"Wow! A future superstar is about to be born!"
"Yang Yunfan, quickly give me an autograph! You won't have time to look for you in the future."
It was time for class to end, and the students gathered around, chattering and cheering…
Huang Tao, who was in the corner, was so angry that his face turned purple! Damn it, how could this kid be so lucky! How did this lousy song get to the record company? He still wanted to sign a contract with this kid. He was really blind!
