On Thursday, February 21, Yu Shuying returned.
He did not bring his adoptive mother back to Shanghai. He waited until his brokerage business found available talent and got on track, and then he would bring his adoptive mother over to live permanently.
That night, a short separation after the New Year was better than a new marriage, so naturally they made love in bed again and again.
At dawn on Friday the 22nd, Xiong Ying will be screened for the second round of interviews.
…
For artists, there is no re-examination.
Artist agent, Song Shuang.
Artist assistant, Yu Xiaoqiu.
Dong Tong holds dual positions in administration and personnel.
The old man’s front desk clerk is Cai Xiaotong, who is directly under Dong Tong.
Cai Xiaotong had no objection to this. Her academic qualifications and experience were incomparable. An easy job like working as a front desk clerk was more suitable for her. She could work from 9 to 6 and get off work on time.
Artist agent Song Shuang and assistant Yu Xiaoqiu are directly under Yu Shuying's supervision and are responsible for training and instruction.
However, in the afternoon, Xiong Ran unexpectedly received Zeng Yanrong's invitation for the re-examination. To be honest, he had not expected this. After all, the possibility of her coming was less than 20%. But since she came, he decided to accept her.
While Yu Shuying was guiding Song Shuang and Yu Xiaoqiu, Zeng Yanrong followed behind to learn. After all, as long as Xiong Ying found the next potential new star artist, Zeng Yanrong could take up the job directly, and the re-examination would be considered complete.
We recruited 4 new people today, and Xiong Ying Studio has doubled its staff from 4 to 8. Although it is still small, the framework is gradually being built, and it will be full sooner or later.
At the moment, the only thing missing may be a musician who can shoot and produce MVs.
Xiong Ying's second floor is an audio studio with recording and production equipment, but it is usually just used in a simple way, far from being fully utilized like Bai Xiang, where Ye Xiaopeng has all the functions turned on.
Although it is lower-end than Ye Xiaopeng's equipment at Baixiang, it is also valuable and covered in dust.
Uh, do you want to dig up Ye Xiaopeng
"Since you have chosen to be a manager, you should concentrate on learning and doing your job well. At least it is much easier than being a singer or star on stage. Besides, you can also control half of the voice of the artists, which is also pretty good..."
Xiong Ran encouraged with a faint smile, and Zeng Yanrong nodded in agreement.
My family refused to raise money for the surgery, and in the end I couldn't borrow enough, so I had no choice but to give up. Another thing is that after a major surgery, my face will definitely be in a bad state in the future.
After thinking it over, since Mr. Xiong has been saying that she would be more suitable to be an agent, then let's give it a try.
Perhaps changing the way we look at things and letting the artists we have stand on stage and fight hard is also a kind of achievement.
If you can't show off your virtue in front of people, then just wear fine clothes and travel at night.
…
"Teacher Xiong, is this okay for you..."
On Saturday, February 23, Xiong Ran, Yu Shuying, Wang Teng, Song Shuang, Yu Xiaoqiu and Zeng Yanrong came to Baixiang to discuss the production of Wang Teng’s second album with Ye Xiaopeng.
Song Shuang and Yu Xiaoqiu are currently Wang Teng’s agent and assistant, and Yu Shuying has brought the process.
Zeng Yanrong, follow and learn, take your time.
So when Ye Xiaopeng saw Zeng Yanrong suddenly join Xiong Ying, he couldn't help but sigh, and Xiong Ran followed this sigh and tried to dig deeper.
What I got was the above eye-rolling response.
"Ahem, what's wrong with that..."
There were no outsiders. Xiong Ran put his arm around Ye Xiaopeng and said, "I've just started, and I'm in need of an all-round producer like you, Master Ye. If you come, you'll be the head of the production department. In the future, you'll be the top producer and director of Xiongying Group. Your development prospects will definitely be impressive..."
"Don't draw it, the pie is too high and too far away..."
Ye Xiaopeng quickly called a halt, saying that if he continued to draw, he would run out of the planet. As for Xiongying Group, it should first expand its scale and integrate into a company. The future pie is too imaginary.
Moreover, Xiong Ying only has one artist, Wang Teng, so why would he go there? Without orders, how can he make money
At least at Baixiang, there is no shortage of domestic or foreign orders every month, and the monthly income is as low as 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, and as high as 50,000 to 60,000 yuan. This is the real income. As a middle-aged man with a wife and children at home, I can't afford to toss around.
"Ahem, it's okay, we'll talk later."
Xiong Ran was not embarrassed at all, but Yu Shuying and the other girls beside him had their mouths twitching a little. Bai Xiang was really working with an ungrateful person who was trying to poach their employees with a hoe.
If Ye Xiaopeng was really poached by Xiong Ying, wouldn't the music director Lin Hongmei be furious
It’s just a matter of what is tolerable and what is intolerable!
"How is it, Mr. Lin? It's okay..."
After placing Wang Teng in Ye Xiaopeng's recording studio and leaving a USB flash drive with the arrangements of 5 songs, Xiong Ran and Yu Shuying came to Lin Hongmei's office, delivered the title song written for Qiu Kaiqi's album, and made an appointment for lunch to reminisce about the past.
"It looks OK, but we have to see how it turns out after adding some music. It's thoughtful."
Lin Hongmei let out a sigh and smiled slightly. The style changes of the two songs were more advanced than those of Jin Kai and Qi Nuan, but they were not completely beyond the control of style, at least not as weird as "Nunchucks".
Okay, not bad, at least it’s not bad.
Shuying, you picked up a nice little man.
…
"Is what you said true?"
At the lunch table, Xiong Ran, Yu Shuying and Lin Hongmei were talking about Hongtu's song invitation for Su Mi, with a single remuneration of 1 million, which Xiong Ran revealed unintentionally.
"This grand plan has no moral principles!"
Yu Shuying remained silent and just ate and drank.
When Lin Hongmei saw Xiong Ran smile and nod, she couldn't help but look a little gloomy. Hongtu was too unsportsmanlike.
Although the nine songs created by Xiong Ran were released one after another before the New Year and received very good responses, the time was short after all, and the only three songs that were actually released were for Jin Kai and Qi Nuan. In terms of qualifications, he is still a newcomer.
Moreover, the first two songs "No Makeup·A Little Sweet" cost 200,000, and the last song "The First Person I Love" cost 200,000. The price given by Baixiang is not low and can be considered high.
Now, Jin Kai and Qi Nuan have been invited to sing the title songs for their new independent albums. 600,000 to 700,000 for the two songs is a good choice, and the highest will not exceed 800,000, which is equivalent to 400,000 for a single song!
However, Hongtu directly invited her with a price of 1 million for a single song. Although they wanted to help Sumi become a quasi-queen and her album sales exceeded 3 million on May Day, the price was ridiculously high. A single song worth one million was at least gold medal level.
That's too much, it's like roasting a white elephant on the fire.
"Hongmei, as long as it's worth it..."
Yu Shuying raised her head and smiled at the right time, "How about this, if Jin Kai and Qi Nuan's individual independent albums can exceed 1 million sales, we will count the two songs as 1 million! If not, we will just go with the normal level increase, 700,000..."
"Stop it, you are attacking my army."
Lin Hongmei glared at Yu Shuying. Hongtu was so generous, how could she, Baixiang, be stingy
Because as long as the songs are good and well-sung by the audience, even if they make 1 million yuan from two songs, they will not lose money in the end. Even if the album sales do not make back the investment that month, there will still be commercial performances, concerts, accumulation of cultural heritage, etc.
Moreover, she also watched "The World·Fables", which has dynamic lyrics and music, and is a good masterpiece.
Is it worth 1 million? Yes!
But Baixiang needs to make at least 3 million in gross profit from the purchase of these two songs to recover the investment, and then only the net profit will be sporadic and continuous. The cost-effectiveness is…
All in all, it's not a bad buy, but I feel a little sad.
"Please treat me 10 more meals later..."
Hearing this, Xiong Ran and Yu Shuying looked at each other secretly, and Lin Hongmei tacitly agreed to the 1 million.
Although it is not as high as the 1 million for Hongtu's single, but 500,000 for a single has greatly increased his value, and as his fame increases, it will only get higher.
One step, three steps, five steps, leaping up.
It’s stable. The value of creative works is rising steadily.
