After hearing this condition, I had to admit that Lao Huang was tempted.
As "Dragon" continues to sell well, Li Jie's status has also risen accordingly. There is no doubt that the "Dragon" series is a huge gold mine.
At least, that's what it seems for now.
Moreover, Li Jie also has a huge advantage. He is still very young. If nothing unexpected happens, he will still be able to maintain his creative enthusiasm in the next ten to twenty years.
To be fair, Lao Huang is not very optimistic about Shen Mo's future.
Is the music industry so easy to break into?
Although those singers are making a lot of money, there are only a handful of them, and the vast majority of them are invisible to everyone.
Strictly speaking, the same is true for the publishing industry. Last year, a total of a little over 120,000 books were published across the country, close to 130,000 titles.
Excluding the more than 50,000 reprints, there are about 70,000 new books.
Among these 70,000 books, except for some reference books, 99% of the sales did not meet the standards of bestsellers.
Even a large number of books are still losing money in the short term.
Moreover, there are not a few who publish books at their own expense.
There are many intersections between the book and audio-visual industries. Although Lao Huang is not necessarily knowledgeable about the music industry, he definitely knows more than ordinary people.
The income types of both are thumbtack-type, with the majority at the bottom being the majority. Only the small portion at the tip of the thumbtack that really makes money makes big money.
If Li Jie had not mentioned the final operation of the work, although Huang would not reject it outright, long-term consideration is inevitable.
He is no longer young. He is old at the top and young at the bottom. As the backbone of the family, he cannot be too cautious when changing careers.
Although Li Jie's salary will not be small, if he has no effect at all and gets such a high salary, he will be ashamed.
With the operation of works, it will be different.
If the east is not bright, the west is bright. Even if the silent adventure fails, he can help the "Guardian" works to operate better and earn more.
In this way, he can get a high salary with peace of mind.
After a while, Lao Huang picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.
"good!"
"I did this!"
"However, I need about two months. Firstly, the handover from the publishing house will take time, and secondly, I have to prepare."
Do what you do, love what you do, and since you want to cross over into the music industry, Huang feels that he also needs to recharge his batteries.
Otherwise, your eyes will be darkened and you will inevitably suffer a loss.
"fine."
Seeing Lao Huang respond, Li Jie smiled and nodded.
"There's no rush for this matter just yet. The album recording will have to be done during the summer vacation anyway. It can be done before June."
"good."
Lao Huang thought for a while and suddenly asked.
"Recording studio, have you found it?"
Li Jie said unexpectedly: "Not yet, I hear you say, do you have any recommendations?"
"So be it."
Lao Huang nodded slightly: "I have a friend who opened a recording studio. I don't know much about the specific situation."
"I'll ask him later to see what's going on over there."
"also."
The arrangement of Silence's first album won't be too complicated. We don't need top-level recording studios for the time being. As long as it's a recording studio above the standard, it can basically be recorded.
"Then I'll trouble you."
"correct."
Seeing that Lao Huang was in working mode, Li Jie was not polite and directly gave him a task.
"When you're done with the handover, go back and set up a company. Forget it, just a studio. The business will be my follow-up works and my sister's album."
"no problem."
Lao Huang took over the matter and said, "You don't have to wait so long. It can be done this month."
Although Lao Huang has never done anything similar, he has never eaten pork and has seen pigs run away. For things like setting up a company, there is a special agency.
For one or two thousand yuan, those people can complete the procedures quickly.
Immediately, Lao Huang changed the topic.
"What about the new book?"
"Do you plan to continue cooperating with the next book, or do you want to switch to another publishing house?"
"what is your opinion?"
When Li Jie heard this, he immediately threw the question back.
After hesitating for a moment, Lao Huang spoke.
"My opinion is to spread the word first, and then we will cooperate with whoever offers the highest price."
Lao Huang has feelings for his old club. In fact, if he goes by his emotions, he still tends to cooperate with his old club.
But this time and that time.
He is about to become the agent of the 'Guijun'. When considering the problem, he naturally has to analyze it from the perspective of the customer.
Seeing the struggle in Lao Huang's eyes, Li Jie couldn't help but feel angry instead of angry. Instead, he admired it very much.
Nostalgia is a major characteristic of Lao Huang.
Thinking of this, Li Jie stopped embarrassing Lao Huang.
"forget it."
"Dragon 6, let's cooperate with Zhengda."
"Dragon 6 is also the final chapter of the Dragon series. If it is left to Zhengda to operate, it can be regarded as a beginning and an end."
"I will start a new series after the next book, and it won't be too late to change partners then."
Lao Huang looked surprised and said, "Have you got inspiration for the next book?"
"Um."
Li Jie nodded and said: "It's almost there. In addition, the final chapter of Dragon Clan will be almost completed next month."
Knowing this, Lao Huang was very touched.
He understood what 'guard' meant.
"Dragon" 6 continues to let Zhengda operate, and the 'Guijun' mostly depends on his face.
It's better to get together and disperse easily, so as not to ruin his reputation.
After all, as soon as he resigned, Dragon Clan 6 changed its publishing house. When the news spread, people would inevitably think that it was all his fault.
Although 'Weijun' is not very old, he is a very particular person.
And this is one of the important reasons why Lao Huang is willing to follow the other party.
After knowing him for so many years, he no longer regarded 'Weijun' as an ordinary boy.
The "precocious wisdom" that the ancients often referred to is probably the "Weijun".
"Thank you."
After a while, Lao Huang came to his senses and solemnly expressed his gratitude to Li Jie.
"younger brother?"
Just at this moment, two female voices came from the direction of the main hall.
"Great writer, are you at home?"
Hearing the female voice behind him, Li Jie couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
This voice was too familiar to him.
His silent good friend Zhang Yue is a woman who covets his body and wants old cows to eat young grass.
However, if the two of them really get together, it's hard to say who is the old cow and who is the young grass.
"Huh?"
After a moment, Shen Shen glanced into the tea room.
"Brother Huang, are you there too?"
"Sister, let me introduce you again."
Li Jie smiled, stood up and said, "Huang Dewen, general manager of Erjun Studio, will also be our brother and sister's manager in the future."
Erjun is the pen name used by Li Jie. He didn't bother to rename the studio and simply continued to use it.
