In the past few days, Mr. Wang from Fengming Entertainment was also happy from ear to ear.
Without him, the sales volume of the company's new game "Legend of Sword and Chivalry" has been soaring, with sales exceeding 10,000 units every day.
In two weeks, the sales volume has reached more than 450,000 units. It is only less than 50,000 units away from last year's top ten domestic game sales rankings of 500,000 units. As long as the sales volume reaches 50,000 units, With thousands of tricks, he even completed this task that he originally thought would be very difficult.
No matter how hard he works, he will be able to meet his father's assessment requirements and break into the top ten in a week at most.
When he thought that he would soon be recognized by his father and shoulder the important task of leading the entire family business group, Mr. Wang was as happy as a child in his fifties, as happy as if he had drank honey water. sweet.
However, two other things continued to bother him.
Those are his two younger brothers. It seems that they have been doing very well in their careers recently. The movies they filmed suddenly became popular, and the TV series they filmed suddenly became popular hits...
Now, two weeks later, the total box office revenue of "Laughing in the Rivers and Lakes" has reached 15 million.
The ratings of "Return to the Great Qin" have already exceeded 2.5%, reaching a very exaggerated figure - 2.71%.
So Mr. Wang has been happy and in pain these past few days.
Not that he was jealous of his brothers and wished them bad things.
But if they all complete their father's mission, what will be the final result?
The old man must not have expected that the three brothers in the family are so promising, and that everyone has completed the tasks he set, right?
Why is this all happening?
Why did the three brothers originally think that it would be very difficult to achieve the data by the end of the year, when the movie is released, when the TV series is finished... can they achieve it in just two weeks?
Mr. Wang analyzed a lot.
But in the end, we discovered what the three companies have in common:
That is, they all invited Jiang Kan to produce music for them and sing it himself.
"Hiss...this son's influence is so terrifying!"
This is the common sigh of the three presidents.
While they were all thankful for their excellent vision, they also regretted why their brothers also had such good vision, which led to the starting point of the three of them coming to the same level.
This side compartment.
Jiang Kan was unaware of the grudges and competition between the three Wang brothers. At this moment, he was seriously studying music knowledge with Professor Wang Tiancheng in the system illusion, trying his best to consolidate his superficial music knowledge. Base.
After nearly a month of high-quality learning, Jiang Kan has felt that his music theory level has made significant progress. In the past, there were many things that he couldn't understand in the songs provided by the system and how to deal with them. Now he can't understand them either. He was gradually able to understand and understand the songs, and he could even see the subtleties of many of these songs, which made him feel that the power of learning is infinite.
"Huh, let's learn this today, I'm so tired...".
After bowing respectfully to Professor Wang Tiancheng in the illusion, he exited the systematic learning illusion.
"Kokoko."
Just at this time, there was a gentle knock on the door from the commissioner's office.
"Please come in."
Jiang Kan rubbed his temples to relax himself and let the person who knocked on the door come in.
"Good morning, Commissioner Jiang. Are you busy? I have good news to report to you!"
The visitor is Xiang Ping, Jiang Kan's secretary and assistant here.
"Oh? Good news? Can you tell me?"
He stopped doing eye exercises and looked at the other party expectantly.
"Well, both Guangming Film and Television and Mars Pictures have sent new news, inviting you to sing their two new songs in person!"
Xiang Ping's eyes were shining with excitement, and her face was full of admiration and admiration for Jiang Kan.
She has also been involved in the entertainment industry with her cousin for several years. She has never seen any company from Party A treat Party B's production company with such courtesy and respect, even to the level of reverence and humility!
"Hahahaha, their original words were "Please be sure to tell Mr. Jiang Kan that we sincerely invite him to sing for our theme song." They also proposed that if you sing their theme song, we are willing to satisfy you. The fee standard is 1 million! "
You must know how arrogant these fathers from Party A were when they treated their company's salesmen a month and a half ago, before Jiang Kan came to the Yangcheng branch.
He simply does not regard his company as an equal partner, and is not even willing to give him a small order of 500,000 yuan.
Not to mention the few singers signed by the company. Although several first-line singers have left in recent years and the company cannot retain them, there are still quite a few capable second-tier singers who have customized songs for them. It's more than enough for singing.
However, these companies with high ambitions and low power also look down on these second-tier singers. They contact big-name companies such as Xinghai and Guangguang and those first-tier singers who are currently popular.
When did it happen that people are begging their own company’s composers to write songs for them, and their own company’s singers to sing for them?
What an eye-opener!
The entire Yangcheng branch of Feiyang Entertainment was very excited about this.
Even Xiao Xiang, a young employee, felt the long-lost respect and happiness.
They all understood that all these changes started after Jiang Kan came to the branch.
He used his own strength, his own fame, and his own achievements to successfully conquer these Party A companies in Lingnan who originally looked down on them.
Let the Yangcheng Branch, which is gradually coming to an end, start a new journey up the mountain.
"Hahaha, in the end they figured it out. Only Commissioner Jiang can bring success to their works. The three previous songs proved that you are the most top-notch composer and singer now. Even martial arts movies can be praised. Become a hit super music daddy!"
Classmate Xiaoxiang laughed and couldn't help but praise Jiang Kan.
She herself could feel that she was a little drifting during this time.
Because he was following an incredible being!
While walking on her way to and from get off work, she felt like she was full of wind, full of confidence and vitality that she had never experienced before!
All of this was the confidence Commissioner Jiang gave her and the company!
"Then the relationship is great. In that case, we can start arranging the recording. Xiao Xiang will be responsible for the communication in the recording studio."
Jiang Kan is also very happy. His reputation has not stopped growing during this period. The other party's affirmation of him has also made him more and more confident. It seems that he has done a good job in saving the branch's business here. !
"Okay, leave this matter to me!"
The little girl ran out jumping.
Jiang Kan looked at her back and thought it was funny. He shook his head, sat back in his chair with a chuckle, and began to think about what new content he would tell his apprentice Zhao Junping this afternoon.
In the recent period, Xiao Zhao's progress has also been very obvious. His foundation is already good, but some areas are still rough and lack fine polishing. It just so happens that Professor Wang Tiancheng did a good job in this aspect in the course taught by Professor Wang Tiancheng. Jiang Kan benefited a lot when he was studying, and he became even more comfortable when he turned around to teach others.
No, Xiao Zhao recently won another commercial soundtrack worth 150,000 yuan. After the commercial was broadcast, the response was very good. Party A even called him to praise him, which made the whole company full of satisfaction. and confidence.
In this way, the employees in the composition department were more aware of the recent growth of Zhao Junping, a colleague with mediocre performance, and their desire to become Jiang Kan's next disciple became even stronger. The atmosphere in the department was instantly cleared up, and everyone became
I became proactive, fearing that my performance would not be enough and I would miss the next apprenticeship selection.
In a gorgeously decorated coffee shop on the roadside, a tall, elegant middle-aged man was sipping coffee silently, occasionally glancing at the street view outside the floor-to-ceiling glass window next to him, as if he was waiting for someone.
"I'm sorry, Teacher Liu, we're a little late. There's really a heavy traffic jam on the road..."
Before the person arrived, the voice arrived first. A neatly dressed middle-aged man walked towards him quickly. He also extended his hand, took the other person's extended hand and shook it vigorously.
"It's okay. I just arrived a little while ago. It's understandable that Mr. Chu will be late because he is busy with work."
This person is none other than Liu Yiliang, and the person coming is Lao Chu, the vice president of Guangming Film and Television. :
"Hey, Teacher Liu is so generous, haha..."
The two were polite for a while, and after the waiter brought a cup of coffee and then left, the two began to have a formal conversation.
"Actually, this matter is still a bit hard to talk about..."
After struggling for a long time, Lao Chu finally expressed his thoughts using the face he had gained from many years of business experience.
"Haha, it's nothing. If you have anything to say, just tell me."
Although Liu Yiliang didn't know exactly what the other party was thinking, he still guessed a little bit. He didn't have much interaction with Guangming Film and Television, where Mr. Chu sat. The most recent collaboration was on their new drama "Dragon All Beings" The opening song was sung. Looking at him like this, could there be something wrong with this collaboration?
"Yes...that's it. Didn't we discuss with you before that you would sing the opening theme of our new drama "Dragon All Beings"..."
"Well, yes, what next?"
"And... Well, our business department and marketing department have recently conducted several surveys and analyzes and felt that the song we originally asked you to sing was not particularly in line with the content and overall content of our new drama. atmosphere, so I returned the song and asked them to write a new version..."
After all, Liu Yiliang is also an important veteran singer in the music industry, so even though Lao Chu is the vice president of an entertainment company, he is still cautious when talking to him, even to make his suggestion of substitution sound. To be more convincing, he did not hesitate to make up a lie to persuade Liu Yiliang.
Of course, if you use the popular saying now, it would be "a different way of speaking."
"Oh? Rewrite a new version? But what does this have to do with me? Is it the same song after changing it?"
Liu Yiliang gradually understood something. He had been in the music industry for so many years, and at least he was still wary. Since the other party said this, he must have some purpose, and this purpose was definitely related to him.
"Ahem...it's like this. As for this new song, the required style and singing...are not very suitable for you..."
As soon as these words came out, Liu Yiliang understood.
Why is it that the old version of the opening song is not very consistent with the content and overall atmosphere of the TV series, and that it is not suitable for the style and singing of the new version of the song...
This is obviously because he wants to replace someone!
Liu Yiliang thought today that the other party wanted to tell him the broadcast time of the series. After confirming his previous agreement, he asked him to cooperate with some small things such as publicity, so even his agent didn't bring him over. He didn't expect that he would come as soon as he came. You actually told yourself such a big thing!
The singing fee and subsequent publicity expenses agreed upon before were one million yuan!
Even though he has been a top-tier singer in the music industry for many years, one million is not a small amount!
You must know that Blue Star is not the Earth. The management and control of the entertainment industry is quite strict. There are also many supervisions and restrictions on entertainment stars. It is completely impossible to be like those so-called celebrities on Earth with just one appearance fee. Tens of millions or even tens of millions!
Therefore, Liu Yiliang himself attaches great importance to this opening song.
But now the other party told me that he wanted to change someone?
The contract has been signed and the deposit has been paid. Now you want to change people?
So his anger suddenly rose, and he no longer had the easy-going expression just now, but looked seriously into the other person's eyes, asking him to give him an explanation.
"Hehe... this... is indeed our problem. It's not that your fame and singing skills are not good. We definitely don't mean it! It's just a collective decision-making on the company's side. I think you can change it to a better match with our new song. Singer will sing..."
Lao Chu knew that he was in the wrong, and he did not want to come and talk to the other party about this matter in person, but after all, in view of the other party's status in the world, in his own small and medium-sized company, only people with his own position could express it to the other party in person. Enough respect.
"Furthermore...this is also the composer's own intention...he has his own preferred singer..."
The other party's eyes became more and more severe, and Lao Chu felt a little unbearable. Out of a businessman's instinct, he let him throw part of the pot to other people.
"Haha, I wonder who the composer and the singer you are interested in are...?"
Liu Yiliang's voice became a little cold.
He actually already knew that the other party, as the vice president, came to tell him this in person, which meant that they had actually made a decision. No matter what he said, they would never let him sing again.
It's just that as a veteran first-line singer, he also has his own self-esteem and will not plead with the other party to take back his decision.
But he also wanted to know by whose hand he had been defeated, and he would have to die with full knowledge.
"Ahem... This... it's hard to say, but after all, the TV series will be released soon, and you will also know the name of the singer by then..."
Lao Chu struggled for a long time, but he still reluctantly said the name of the singer who replaced him in singing the opening song.
"Jiang Kan."
