Looking at the two fingers stretched out by Chen Mo, before Ding Yuesheng could speak, the assistant next to him, Xiao Zhang, blurted out: "Two hundred thousand?"
As soon as these words came out, even Shen Xingluo, who was eating beef skewers, almost dropped the beef skewers and covered his forehead. There was really nothing to talk about.
"Don't be weird, Mr. Chen, Xiao Zhang, he was just joking!"
Ding Yuesheng glared at his assistant before continuing: "With Mr. Chen's ability, he is at least a gold medal songwriter. I took advantage of the two million price!"
Although it was only the authorization of singing rights and recording and distribution rights, he knew in his heart that under normal circumstances, Chen Mo would definitely not sing the song "Kiss Goodbye" again. Therefore, he was equivalent to getting an original song for two million, and he also had exclusive singing and distribution rights in disguise.
Instead of buying songs from other gold medal songwriters and buying out the exclusive copyright, the starting price would be at least two million!
Chen Mo didn't care about Xiao Zhang's 'two hundred thousand', and stretched out his right hand: "Then I wish us a happy cooperation, and I also wish Ding Tianwang's new song a big hit!"
"With Mr. Chen's good advice, I will ask Xiao Zhang to draft the subsequent contract and then fax it to you!"
Hearing the implication of Chen Mo's words, Ding Yuesheng was in a good mood. This was a reassurance for him.
…
The next day, after Chen Mo and Shen Xingluo had breakfast, they took a taxi and went straight to Yancheng Conservatory of Music.
Because Guo Yingjie was also coming, the two of them did not enter the college directly, but waited at the door for about ten minutes.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Chen. I had an impromptu interview with an actor for an audition this morning, so I'm late." Guo Yingjie looked at the father and daughter at the entrance of the college, got out of the car and walked over quickly with her assistant.
Chen Mo quickly said: "Director Yingjie is a senior, so he should wait a little longer."
After exchanging polite words, the four of them went to the security room at the entrance of the college to register.
Faintly hearing the sound of a stereo, Chen Mo checked in and looked at the security guard in front of him and asked: "Brother, are there any activities in the college today? It's so lively!"
"Oh, you're talking about this. Yesterday the freshmen were admitted, and today is the college orientation party!"
Taking a cigarette from Chen Mo, the security guard responded with a smile, with a little regret in his tone.
It is the tradition of Yancheng Conservatory of Music that when new students enter, the college will organize an orientation party for old students to welcome the younger students. It was no less than an 'all-stars' performance. If it hadn't been his turn to be on duty in the security room at the entrance today, he would have gone to watch it by now.
After receiving the answer, Chen Mo was stunned.
It was already the end of August, and Yancheng Conservatory of Music started a little earlier than other schools. The past five years had been so confusing that he had forgotten about it.
"Thank you, brother!" He coughed slightly in embarrassment, "Director Yingjie, we just happened to go take a look. We're lucky!"
Guo Yingjie understood what Chen Mo meant, and a smile crept onto her cheeks: "It's indeed good luck. It seems that Mr. Chen is the lucky star of our crew!"
After knowing that the welcome party was being held, Chen Mo became familiar with the situation.
Not long after, a few people arrived at the college's comprehensive music hall, which can accommodate tens of thousands of people. It was 8:30 in the morning. According to the college's past practice, the orientation meeting had already started for half an hour.
A sophomore boy was singing his own original song on the stage.
Although Guo Yingjie is a great director in the film and television industry, film and television and music are inseparable. After listening for a while, she praised: "Mr. Chen, your junior is very good. Whether it is lyrics or music, he has already won a bronze medal in lyrics and music." The people are up to par!”
"Well, the song is indeed good, and the sound processing is also okay. Why am I a little proud!"
Chen Mo praised his juniors without hesitation.
While talking and laughing, the four of them found an empty seat near the entrance of the music hall and sat down, listening to the campus concert that had not yet been influenced by society.
When the next program came on stage, Guo Yingjie was stunned.
He looked at Chen Mo with some confusion: "Mr. Chen, do you still have skits in your academy's performances?"
"Well, the orientation meeting does not limit the type of program. It is mainly to welcome the junior students who are entering school, so any type of program will do. And the dean also said that music is about creation. Let students be free to use their imagination. Only then can you have more inspiration and create better works!”
"This concept is somewhat novel, I personally like it very much!"
Of course Guo Yingjie liked it. She came here just to try her luck, but she didn't expect that she would actually hit him.
I was originally worried that I wouldn't be able to make a selection just by listening to music. Now that I know there are no restrictions on program types, I have to observe carefully. Maybe I can find a diamond in the rough? !
Chen Mo could see what Guo Yingjie was thinking, but the position was too far back and he couldn't see clearly at all.
Just when he was about to get up and think about what he could do, a man happened to walk in from the outside, and the two of them looked at each other directly.
"Hello, Director Ye, long time no see!"
"Who are you……"
Being suddenly greeted by a stranger, Ye Shengtao, the dean of the college, was still a little confused.
A smile appeared on Chen Mo's face: "Director Ye, I am Chen Mo. I graduated from the Songwriting Department five years ago... My teacher is Professor Fan Guohua."
When talking about Fan Guohua, he hesitated for a moment because he really embarrassed the teacher.
At this time, Ye Shengtao also remembered and grabbed Chen Mo's arm: "It's you, Chen Mo. You were a famous figure in our college back then! How are you doing now?"
"Um... Director Ye, this is a long story. Let me introduce to you. This is director Guo Yingjie."
The sudden enthusiasm made it difficult for Chen Mo to adapt and he quickly changed the topic.
Guo Yingjie's name was something that few people in Yanguo's cultural and entertainment circles had not heard of. Ye Shengtao let go of Chen Mo and stepped forward to say hello: "Hello, Director Guo, welcome to visit our college."
"Director Ye is too polite to take the liberty of visiting. Please don't mind, Director Ye."
"Where is Director Guo coming to our college? It's not too late for us to welcome him!" Ye Shengtao even wrinkled his face with laughter, "I wonder who Director Guo is here this time?"
"That's it, Director Ye. Mr. Chen and I have collaborated on a TV series. Some of the characters have not been cast yet..."
After listening to Guo Yingjie's words, the smile on Ye Shengtao's face became even brighter. At the same time, he glanced at Chen Mo appreciatively, as if to say: You are a good boy. After you have achieved results, you have not forgotten to give back to your alma mater. You deserve praise!
"Since Director Guo is here to select roles, how can you see clearly while sitting here? You'd better go to the front!"
After saying that, he couldn't help but invite Guo Yingjie and others to come to the front. Although it is a music school, not every student will pursue a career in music after graduation.
If a few excellent actors can be produced, that will be a very good thing for the academy.
Several people stood up and walked toward the stage, and Ye Shengtao walked quickly to an old man, leaned over and said something.
Soon, with the help of several students, several new seats were added in the front row.
(To be continued!)
