"Little White, how is it?"
In the afternoon, Lu Bai had just arrived at the headquarters of Maitian Music when he was pulled into the director's office by Zhang Yadong. Zhang Yadong instructed his assistant to make a white tea that Lu Bai usually liked.
However, for some reason, Lu Bai, who usually had the habit of drinking tea, did not even touch the teacup in front of him today. He looked completely uninterested, which made Zhang Yadong feel quite puzzled.
But what he didn't know was that Lu Bai had actually been drinking tea with Yang Xiaomi for several hours today. He had had enough.
As for Zhang Yadong's question, it was naturally about Yang Xiaomi.
"It's done. She should be able to transfer the money over in a while.”
"Haha, Boss Yang, are you scared too? Your songwriting speed is really terrifying. I've been in the industry for so many years, but I've never seen a second person like you.”
Zhang Yadong was not a humorous person, but in front of Lu Bai, he always had to think of ways to liven up the atmosphere. After all, Lu Bai's personality was already cold enough. If he did not liven up the atmosphere, it would turn into ice.
"Boss Yang didn't talk to you about anything else?”
Zhang Yadong asked tentatively. In fact, he was here to inquire on behalf of the entire company.
After all, the executives of Wheatfield Music were not fools. They were very clear about the value of a super potential stock like Lu Bai. Yang Xiaomi's Jiaxing Media was one of the capitalists in the industry, so Wheatfield Music was quite afraid that Lu Bai would be poached.
"No, I haven't."
"Uh..."
Zhang Yadong smiled bitterly. Alright, he probably wouldn't be able to get anything out of Lu Bai, who was a man of few words. Even if Lu Bai really wanted to join Jiaxing Media, there was no need for him to tell him everything.
"Xiao Bai, I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?”
Facing Zhang Yadong's awkward conversation, Lu Bai raised his head and looked at Zhang Yadong quietly for three whole seconds without saying a word. Zhang Yadong immediately admitted defeat.
"Alright, alright, I'll be direct…You really don't have any sense of humor…"
" The good news is that the Goose Factory has taken a fancy to your song, Lonely Hero. They're planning to buy the copyright and use it as the official annual theme song for League of Legends. However, the company is still in talks with them about this matter. The estimated profit will be more than three million yuan.”
"Oh."
Lu Bai was not surprised by this. After all, songs like Lone Hero were really not difficult to sell. Compared to those love songs that sang about love, such songs with " positive energy " had more uses and had stronger promotional effects.
However, when it came to spending money, it had to be those top capitalists who were willing to spend it. For example, three million yuan was simply a drop in the ocean for the goose factory.
Because of this, in order to get more wool, Maitian Music was bargaining with the goose factory. Three million was the bottom line. It was possible to negotiate five million or six million.
"Uh, as for the bad news, it's not particularly bad. It's just that CEO Song wants you to take some time to help the company guide the newcomers. After all, you're now our company's chief music consultant. You have to do some work at least. Otherwise, it won't look good, right…"
In fact, in the eyes of the higher-ups of Maitian Music, Lu Bai's position as the chief music consultant was just an honor. They wanted to spend more money to deepen their relationship with Lu Bai.
Therefore, even if Lu Bai didn't come to work to get his salary, he could even sleep in the office of the chairman, Song Ke, every day.
However, the opinions of the people in the company had to be taken into consideration. Therefore, the higher-ups thought that they had to let Lu Bai do some symbolic work, even if it was just for show.
"Lead a newcomer? How many?"
Lu Bai felt that there was nothing wrong with this. After all, the price that Maitian Music had offered him as the chief music consultant was an annual salary of 500,000 yuan, with all the insurance and funds. Although this amount of money was not much compared to the remuneration for writing songs, it was already very high in terms of salary.
Moreover, the company did not force him to clock in every day. He only needed to show up at the headquarters every three to five days. There was no specific work content, so his annual salary of 500,000 yuan was almost free.
Lu Bai naturally would not reject the fact that the other party had already done so much to beg him to do some work.
"Ah, Xiao Bai, you agreed? Don't worry, not all the rookies will be under your tutelage. Recently, we've selected a young lady with more potential. Her singing skills and musical foundation are not bad, and she wants you to guide her…"
"Uh, if, I mean if, if you can come up with a suitable piece that's suitable for her to sing, the company will pay you the normal price.”
In fact, Zhang Yadong was not very sure about this. After all, it had only been a few days, but Lu Bai had already produced four songs, Lonely Hero, Annoyed Sorrow, Bubbles, and Love for Yang Xiaomi.
Even the donkeys of the production team wouldn't dare to work like this.
Even though Lu Bai's talent was heaven-defying, Zhang Yadong also felt that it was a little too much for Lu Bai to write songs for a newcomer in the company.
Of course, Maitian Music could be filtered through layers of layers, so it was naturally not mediocre. Otherwise, it would not be handed over to a god like Lu Bai to guide. It was naturally best if Lu Bai had songs for this newcomer to sing. If not, it was just guidance. The newcomer would probably improve a little by following a genius like Lu Bai.
Regarding this, Lu Bai did not say yes or no on the spot.
"Let's take a look at the newcomers first."
"Oh, okay, okay. Go back to your office first. I'll get the newbie to come over.”
A company like Raitian Music was essentially the capital of the music industry. Its nature was not much different from Yang Xiaomi's Jiaxing Media. However, most of the artists cultivated by Jiaxing Media were actors, while Raitian Music cultivated single-minded artists.
Although Wheatfield Music was only considered second-rate in the industry, there were many serious singers under it. There were dozens of newcomers, but the newcomers were usually not placed in the headquarters. There were professionals training elsewhere.
As for Lu Bai, he had come to another independent office in the high-level office area. On the door plate was written the Chief Music Advisor.
The people from Wheatfield Music knew how to behave. Although Lu Bai did not come to work all year round, they still prepared a special office for him. The specifications were exactly the same as Zhang Yadong's. When Lu Bai was not around, there would be someone responsible for cleaning.
Although this kind of action was a little wasteful, it was full of sincerity. It was easy to make people like him, even Lu Bai.
This was how it was between people. If you did everything well, even a cold rock could be warmed up by you.
Sitting on the leather sofa in the office, Lu Bai flipped through the newcomer's information that Zhang Yadong had just sent over. When he saw the newcomer's name, he could not help but raise his eyebrows slightly…
