Perfect Superstar

Chapter 14 Deep Pride

Following Chen Jianhao, Lu Chen came to the reserved seating area on the upper floor of the bar.

Wangyoucao Bar was rebuilt from an old warehouse. Since the floor height is more than six meters and nearly seven meters, it was transformed into two floors, the upper and lower floors, and the middle position is vacated for the stage. The layout is very clever, and the entire space is fully utilized.

Like most bars in Houhai, Wangyoucao Bar has a reserved seating area. There are three wine tables in it, no matter how good the business is, they will be empty waiting for VIPs who may not appear.

Because it is very important to open a bar to do business, personal connections are very important. Chen Jianhao has a wide range of contacts. If a good friend or someone who cannot be offended suddenly comes to the door, the bar is full at this time, and there is no place to sit, then there is no doubt It's a very embarrassing thing.

Hence the existence of reserved seating areas.

If someone who came to Lu Chen to buy a song could sit in the reserved seat, it would definitely not be an ordinary role.

Perhaps seeing that he was a little nervous, Chen Jianhao whispered when he went up the stairs: Don't worry, it's up to you to sell or not. With me here, no one will deliberately embarrass you.

Lu Chen breathed a sigh of relief and said, Thank you boss.

Chen Jianhao is really a very good boss, although he is usually a little strict with people.

Two of the three wine tables in the reserved seating area were empty. The table near the wrought iron fence sat a man and a woman. The man was in his thirties. His hair was neatly combed, and at a glance, he knew that he was the kind of professional elite.

The woman is much younger, with a petite figure and an eight-point appearance. She dresses quite casually. She holds the wine glass in her hand and is looking around curiously, as if she is very new to everything in the bar.

Manager Song, I brought someone here...

Chen Jianhao took Lu Chen over and said with a smile, This is Lu Chen, Xiao Lu!

The man in the suit waited until Chen Jianhao walked in front of him before standing up. A faint smile appeared on his face, and he nodded to Lu Chen reservedly.

The woman on the side hurriedly got up, but forgot to put down the glass, and the drink was spilled.

Chen Jianhao introduced: Xiao Lu, this is Mr. Song Xinwei, the deputy general manager of Qingyu Media and the manager of the brokerage department, and this is Miss Dong Xuan, the assistant to the general manager.

Light Rain Media? Is it that Su Qingmei, who has a big temper and arrogance, still doesn't give up?

Lu Chen thought to himself, and at the same time, he reached out to the man in the suit without being humble or arrogant: Mr. Song, hello.

Song Xinwei reached out and shook his hand: Hello.

Lu Chen reached out to Miss Dong Xuan again: Miss Dong, hello.

Dong Xuan hurriedly shook his hand, and stammered a little: Okay, hello Lu Chen...

Lu Chen smiled.

This assistant to the general manager is too tender, completely new to the workplace.

Of course, he didn't need to care whether the other party was qualified for the position of assistant general manager. After the courtesy, everyone sat down at the wine table.

Song Xinwei said straight to the point: Xiao Lu, the situation is like this, we are here tonight, at the request of Director Su Qingmei Su, and want to buy the copyright of a song from you.

Saying that, he nodded to Dong Xuan, who immediately took out a few pieces of paper from the briefcase he was carrying.

Song Xinwei continued: Our company's legal department has confirmed that the copyright of this song called 'You at the Same Table' is completely owned by you, so you are willing to buy all the copyrights at a high price. Please take a look at this contract.

Lu Chen calmly accepted the contract.

It is very simple for Qingyu Media to confirm the copyright of the song, as long as it is queried through the Greater China Music Library, whether it is the song title, lyrics or sheet music, you can search for it.

This is the authority and convenience of the Greater China Music Library, although the registration fee is very high,

But legally avoid possible copyright disputes and save a lot of trouble.

And as long as Lu Chen is willing, he can also complete the copyright transaction through the Greater China Music Library.

But these are not the point.

His eyes swept across the list of clauses in the contract, and he quickly focused on the key points.

That is the price of transferring the copyright, which is clearly written in black and white: ¥20000.00

There is also a capitalized 20,000 yuan at the back.

Twenty thousand yuan!

When he first saw the price, Lu Chen was really moved.

He used to work two jobs, working more than 15 hours a day. After deducting daily expenses, the money he earned was only 4,000 to 5,000 yuan a month.

And now, as long as he signs his name on this contract, he can easily take away 20,000.

Most importantly, there are still countless good songs in his memory, and it really doesn't matter if one is sold.

Opposite Lu Chen, Song Xinwei keenly noticed the change in the former's expression through the ultra-thin resin lenses of the gold-wire glasses, and a subtle disdain flashed in his eyes.

If it wasn't for Su Qingmei's request, as Tangtang's deputy general manager in Qingyu Media, he wouldn't bring someone over in person to discuss a small contract for only 20,000 yuan with a young boy.

Of course, the 20,000 yuan must be a huge sum of money for the boy in front of him, and it is estimated that he is confused.

Lucky boy!

However, Lu Chen was not stunned. After learning about the price, he began to carefully check the other terms.

The more he looked, the more ugly his face became.

It's normal to sell all the copyright terms except the authorship right of You at the Same Table, and Lu Chen also agrees, but what the hell is he not allowed to sing this song in any public place?

In other words, after he sold the song, he couldn't even sing in the Wangyoucao bar?

Another one is that Light Rain Media has priority over his works. Before the former confirms giving up, he cannot transfer his future works to a third party!

It's a dog day!

If Lu Chen hurriedly signed the contract without reading the contract carefully, it would mean that he was tied to the boat of Light Rain Media and lost the initiative to his own work.

There is indeed a trap behind the high price lure.

Lu Chen understood and resolutely returned the contract: Sorry, I can't sign this contract.

He said the same thing to Su Qingmei once yesterday.

Song Xinwei was waiting for Lu Chen to sign, but he didn't expect Lu Chen to refuse. He couldn't help but stunned: What?

Lu Chen repeated the words.

This time, Song Xinwei finally understood. He felt humiliated, and his expression changed immediately: Can I know why? Is it because of the price?

Then I think you should know that this price is impossible for others to give!

In fact, Lu Chen understood this.

The current era is no longer the 1980s and 1990s. The rise of the Internet and the prevalence of piracy have led to a great decline in the record industry. Today's singers and stars are fighting for the fan economy and eyeball economy, all kinds of crazy hype, all kinds of blogging To earn popularity, it is not the time when you can make a lot of money by releasing a best-selling album.

The status of pop music songwriters is naturally not as good as before.

And now that technology is advanced, even ordinary people can create with the help of software such as Master of Singing and Composer, the threshold for composing lyrics has been greatly lowered, and the market is full of countless third-rate and inferior works.

If an amateur author writes a song that can be sung, he doesn't need to spend money to register in the Great China Music Library. As long as he uploads it to a music website to prove his copyright, he will be willing to sell it for 3500 yuan.

The price of a professional songwriter is much higher, but a newcomer or a third-rate writer to write a song will only cost two or three thousand at most, and it has to be someone who wants it.

Light Rain Media paid 20,000 yuan to buy Lu Chen's You at the Same Table, which is already a celebrity treatment!

You must know that this is Lu Chen's first work, and his work has not yet been tested by the market.

That's why Song Xinwei is so annoyed - how can the newcomers be so ignorant?

But Lu Chen didn't care about the price.

“Price is not an issue...”

He said seriously: I am willing to sell the copyright for 20,000 yuan, but I cannot agree to other terms.

The value of You at the Same Table is more than 20,000 yuan, but considering the relationship between Chen Jianhao and Su Qingmei, and because he doesn't want to offend a media company, Lu Chen doesn't care if he suffers a little.

However, the premise is only limited to this song!

Song Xinwei understood what Lu Chen meant, and his attitude did not change at all. He sneered: Little Lu, think about it, if there were no such terms, would our company charge such a high price? Who do you think you are? And your authorship is still there, this is a chance for you to become famous, you must know how to cherish it!

He almost pointed to Lu Chen's nose and said, You don't know what to do!

Lu Chen raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice, Manager Song, I'm just a nobody, and a big company like Qingyu Media really can't afford it. You'd better ask someone else to be smart!

If Su Qingmei heard his last two words in return, he would probably be furious.

Lu Chen is also a temperamental person. His pride is deep in his bones. Although he once bent over and lowered his head due to the pressure of life, his knees are always strong!

After speaking, he stood up and nodded towards Dong Xuan, and then said to Chen Jianhao, Boss, I'll go down first, and I'll play later.

When Lu Chen and Song Xinwei were negotiating just now, Chen Jianhao didn't speak. Now he smiled and said, Go ahead, I'll accompany Manager Song for two more drinks here.

thank you boss!

Lu Chen didn't even look at Song Xinwei, and left the reserved seating area.

Song Xinwei was so angry that he didn't drop the wine glass. He looked at Chen Jianhao and said coldly, Boss Chen, your man is really strong. I've seen it today!

Haha, young man...

Chen Jianhao snorted and said, It's all like this, who hasn't been young? Come, drink and drink!

Where can Song Xinwei drink, he is feeling an unprecedented setback.
