Li Mo didn't care and continued walking out.
" Are you really planning to go to the opposite side..." Fu Yao ran in front of Chen Jiajia and asked softly.
"How is that possible? Even if he didn't give the monk face, he had to give the Buddha face, right?”Li Mo chuckled." I took the opportunity to raise the price for the both of us. As for the company's money that you lost, I promise to earn it back for your cousin!"”
"Thank you, hubby!" Fu Yao was touched beyond words. She knew that with Li Mo's skill level, be it the piano or the guzheng, they were both top-notch in the current era. No matter how unpopular an instrument was, it would not be impossible for a master of his level to earn back her salary of a little over 100,000 yuan or cover the 500,000 yuan she had lost from her cousin.
A monthly salary of 100,000 yuan was indeed too low. With Li Mo's standard, he would probably be worth more than 200,000 yuan if he went to any school or training institution to teach. Although classical music was not very popular in the general entertainment industry, it was still the most impressive existence in the aristocratic circle. No matter how unpopular it was, it could not stop the audience from being rich and powerful with a large group of nouveau riche who wanted to improve their performance!
As for Chen Jiajia's 5,000, it was even more ridiculous... If Li Mo really agreed, it would be strange if she didn't fight with her cousin on the spot.
"150,000 yuan, 70 - 30%. I really can't go any higher..." Chen Jiajia, who had finally caught up, grabbed Li Mo's arm as if she was grabbing a cash cow. The huge peaks kept rubbing against Li Mo's arm as she moved.
"150,000 it is, 7,3 it is, but I have a request!”Li Mo was secretly pleased, but he did not show it on his face.
"Tell me, tell me!" Chen Jiajia said eagerly.
"Doesn't Fu Yao have a team of people with you?”Li Mo had a sudden idea. Since the female body had more fans, it could give him more worship points. He was not qualified to touch those female celebrities yet. Why not take advantage of the opportunity to enter the entertainment industry and personally train some female celebrities to develop them into the way he wanted them to be? So, he said," Leave them to me. I know that your contract will last for at least ten years. I can help the technical support to make everyone under Fu Yao famous, but starting from next month, after deducting the loss of 500,000 yuan, I want 10% of the revenue they generate. This must be written into the contract!”
" You are equivalent to taking their life and death power. If you want me to support your request, of course, there is no problem, but I am afraid that you will waste your effort..." Chen Jiajia was a little worried,""Cousin only has a group of trainees under her name. They just signed a contract this year. They have potential, but the low-end classical music market is too unpopular. They won't have the skills and qualifications to come into contact with the high-end classical music market for at least five years. There won't be any opportunities for them to develop in the next three to five years, so I'm afraid that if you don't get what you want from them, you'll blame me instead…"
"Although I'm a little younger than you, I'm not that childish!”Li Mo coldly snorted.
Chen Jiajia saw that Li Mo was persistent, so she didn't waste any more time. She directly added Li Mo as the director of the classical music department on the contract, responsible for the training, appointment, and assessment of the eight female musicians and their agents.
With this power, coupled with the fact that the so-called manager was Fu Yao, who was also Li Mo's person, it meant that Li Mo had no checks and controls at all. He could arbitrarily dictate the fate of these eight girls between the ages of 16 and 18 for 10 years. These girls basically had no ability to resist. If they broke their contracts or changed careers, they would have to face millions of yuan in breach of contract fees.
After the two signed the contract, Chen Jiajia said,""This contract has already taken effect and will be sent to the notary in the afternoon. If Mr. Li is free, why don't you consider going to the recording studio to try it out?”
Li Mo waved his hand and said arrogantly,""There's no need for an audition. I can take advantage of this video's popularity to release an album for you. There's no need for an audition.”
" This..." Chen Jiajia gritted her teeth and said,""Sure, I will send the best team to support you. I will use the best people for recording and post-editing. I only have one request. If you want to add the 'Death of Ning Ci' that you played previously, then release a commercial music album. I will send someone to Japan now and try to buy the adaptation rights of that song within three days. If there are any other songs that you want to play, just say it now or after recording, I will go and do the logistics…"
"In that case, thank you!" Li Mo nodded." I hope to position this album as a semi-commercial album. It's targeted at the commercial music audience, and while it's pleasing to the upper-class circles, it'll also include some Chinese and Western classical music that doesn't have copyrights. It'll save you some money.”
"Oh, I thought you would ask for a classical album!”Chen Jiajia said," As far as the market is concerned, the biggest difference between the profit method of classical music and the current pop music is that classical music is aimed at the upper class. It needs high sound quality and high standards. We don't have to worry about problems such as pirated and online channel sales. We can directly release high-end records without going through online promotion. Although it leads to low popularity, the revenue is almost 100% in our hands. If you can break into the upper circle, even if you linger at the lowest level, the value you create will be enough to support our entire company. However, if you added commercial music to a classical album, it would not be good for you because it would lower the standard!”
After a pause, seeing that Li Mo was still a little confused, Chen Jiajia patiently explained again,""No matter how good a commercial music company's performance is, after being stripped of all the channels and the huge promotional expenses in the early stages…If we ignore the potential income of the artist's value appreciation, in terms of albums, the company's total income from all the channels for the best album by a top singer in the country is only about one or two million yuan…Cough cough!”
After confirming that Li Mo was not unhappy because of her retort, Chen Jiajia continued,""There are even more B-and C-list songs, and even online songs. There are even some that earn six figures, five figures, or even four figures, or even make a loss. In the commercial music industry, all companies can only rely on the number of songs they sing to win. Other than barely maintaining themselves, they can only rely on the appearance fees of their artists after their prices increase. Ten years ago, Chen Yixun's 'Ten Years' could be said to be the last song of commercial music. After that, the living environment of commercial music has been extremely harsh! Since you have such a high standard, there's no need to ruin the competitiveness of a classical album that could have sold well in the high-end market for commercial music!”
"I understand!" Li Mo instantly felt that he had taken his thoughts for granted. According to his previous understanding, a classical music album could be sold for hundreds of dollars. There was no cap on the limited edition high-end albums that were of a higher standard and deliberately reduced production. What was worse was that classical music did not have copyrights. The cost was extremely low, and the profit was extremely high.
As for a commercial pop album, in the current world where the Internet was the leader, other than a few hundred copies for top singers to sign and sell, there was basically no chance for the rest to be released as a big album. For songs below the top, other than the one-time deal of movie episodes, they mainly relied on various channels to make money. A thousand official broadcasts would earn less than five yuan from the company. How could they play?
It wasn't difficult to play around. They were like Koreans who required their singers to sing, dance, perform, earn appearance fees, and act in television shows and movies…They treated people like dogs, and they would die after using them all. This was the only way for commercial singers to make money now. Or rather, commercial music had long been reduced to the popularity of celebrities in the industry, and then it would help the popularity of the industry enter the film industry to suffer more torment and suffering.
If you wanted to rely solely on commercial music to go all the way, sorry, even if you booked the Red Pavilion and held concerts every day, you wouldn't be able to make much money.
Li Mo scratched his head awkwardly.""You want me to use commercial music to raise my popularity and raise my net worth. Then, you want me to release a classical album to target the high-end market and make money on both sides, right?”
"Yes, but also wrong!" Chen Jiajia's eyes lit up as she looked at Li Mo. She waved two fingers and said,""Commercial music and classical music don't match at all. With your level, I think you can release two pieces at the same time!”
" You're really not polite…" Li Mo smiled bitterly.
"Of course, the capable do more work!" Chen Jiajia smiled fawningly." If I didn't think highly of you, why would I give you a department?" I'll leave those girls to you. As long as they don't cause too much trouble, they can do whatever you want!”
