[US Entertainment] The medicine cannot be stopped

Brian Pete and Daisy made an appointment to have a meeting on Saturday afternoon at the largest coffee shop in the city. Since the signature of a minor has no legal effect, Daisy will bring at least one guardian to sign.

Before meeting him in person, Brian Pete had roughly estimated the other person's personality based on her experience in the A&R profession for more than ten years, and conducted a self-guided strategy through brain supplementation, and finally perfectly expressed her affection for Daisy. From a little appreciation point to admiration.

All in all, she attached great importance to the signing with Daisy. Even if the terms of the contract were looser, she would try her best to persuade Daisy to become her singer. For this reason, she could make the greatest concession within the scope of her career.

The Saturday that both Brian and Nancy are excited about is coming soon, because their precious daughter has received an olive branch from JIVE, a record company that is currently hot, and Nancy specially invited a day for today's business negotiation fake.

Although the meeting was in the afternoon, she pulled Daisy out of bed early in the morning, spent some time dressing up her daughter, and found a set of the most formal clothes for Daisy within the budget.

Daisy's skin is very good. Although her skin color is not the most popular wheat color in the United States, her fair skin complements her deep and delicate facial features. Coupled with her thick golden soft hair, she is the most exquisite on the market. A replica of a doll.

Nancy didn't need to make any effort to help her put on makeup, she simply put on some lip gloss and some light eye makeup and it was over.

Daisy, who is still awake, obediently lets her mother dress her up as a little princess. As long as she doesn’t talk or laugh, the breath of sleep she exudes can easily be misunderstood as cold and unearthly. temperament.

This is the benefit of good looks. Adjani is not awake, half-squinting her eyes and unsmiling, she will only be regarded as her own fairy spirit, but if the same action is performed by an ordinary-looking person, it can be seen at a glance that she is not awake.

It took Nancy less than half an hour to finish the makeup part. The real trouble was the clothes. Daisy was in the stage of growing tall and there were not many clothes she could wear. She had to find something that was both beautiful and formal. It's a bit embarrassing for Nancy.

She searched for a long time, but in the end she had no choice but to choose the most formal, cleanest, and latest dress—the school uniform.

After completing this series of preparations, Nancy was a little relieved, and drove Daisy to the downtown cafe for an appointment.

It’s already autumn in Texas, the sun is not as strong as in summer, and the leaves of the trees and greenery on the roadside are starting to turn slightly yellow, sticking to the branches in the bleak autumn wind, reluctant to fall.

Brian Pete took a sip of his coffee and looked down at the time.In order to show how much she attaches importance to this signing, she specially went to the appointment one and a half hours earlier. When she opened the notebook and listed the other party's information, she calculated the time by the way, and judged whether the other party paid attention to this negotiation based on the time when the other party arrived for the appointment, and estimated the other party's hand. chips.

She believes that Chris's information is detailed enough, but whether the other party has received replies from other companies is a business secret of other companies and cannot be easily investigated. She is not sure whether the other party has any cards that she does not know. It is her usual method to test the importance of the signing object to the signing itself, and to evaluate the commercial value of the signing object in order to determine the profit sharing of the company and the artist in the contract.

If the other party shows up for the appointment long in advance, then the initiative has already been lost in this negotiation. Facing artists who regard this contract as a life-saving straw, Brian has never been relentless in squeezing it.

As an A&R employee, trying to figure out the psychology of others and acting by ear are two necessary skills.

Putting down the coffee cup, Brian Pete looked down at his watch again—there were only 10 minutes left before the agreed time. If the other party clicked, it meant that appropriate concessions could be made in this negotiation. If the other party was late , she will consider the biggest concession or give up this newcomer.

She will show the utmost sincerity to discuss cooperation with Daisy Hill, but if the other party's demands are too excessive, or if she thinks too much of herself and does not have the corresponding strength, she can only choose to give up.

Time seemed to flow slowly at this moment. When Brian was about to judge Daisy as late, Nancy took Daisy's hand and hurried in from the door.

"Sorry to keep you waiting Ms. Pete."

Nancy cuts her hair and apologizes for her imminent lateness after finding out where Brian Pitt is.

"It's okay, the time is just right, Mrs. Hill." Brian Pete stood up, and extended his hand politely, "Time is running out, the polite words are temporarily avoided, let's get to the point."

Pushing his glasses, the unsmiling music manager sat back in his seat, took out a stack of documents from the file bag, and handed it to Daisy firmly after a moment of hesitation between Nancy and Daisy.

"This is the company's plan for the training, packaging, post-release promotion and image maintenance of signed artists." Brian Pitt explained briefly, made a stop gesture before Daisy spoke, and continued talking And Tan, "I know what you want to say, you want to tell me that you are aiming at the position of a creative person, and what I give you is the information that singers who are active in front of the public are concerned about, and this negotiation is our current negotiation. one of the key points."

She paused, observing Daisy's reaction, and secretly admired Daisy after seeing the other party's calm reaction.

"Before I came to Texas, I already checked some of your information roughly. I know that you only have the experience of performing piano solo at the campus cultural festival and working as a guitarist in a part-time cafe. You don't have much experience in singing on stage. experience, but your creative talent is obvious to all. It is understandable that you would first consider becoming a songwriter rather than a singer. But have you ever considered, with your appearance and creative talent, debut as a singer? Will the probability of success be much greater than hiding behind the scenes and burying your good looks?"

Because of not sleeping well, Daisy's brain reaction is now a beat slower than usual. She just turned the corner and figured out what Brian Pete meant by wanting her to debut as a singer. At this moment, her I was a little excited in my heart, and my brain gradually woke up.

"Even if I'm not very good at singing?"

Restraining the desire to scream excitedly, Daisy regained some reason, and keenly asked her most worried key.

"Many singers didn't have much singing skills at the beginning of their fame, but they trained while maintaining their high popularity, but Guan's singing skills didn't have much impact on them." Brian withdrew his scrutiny and said seriously Explaining to the girl who is calm and not like a child at all, "As a singer, you can gain wealth and gain popularity at the same time, and popularity can also accumulate more wealth for you. First of all, in terms of income, singers are relatively It’s much more stable for creators.”

"Of course, the most well-known creators also have a stable high income every year, but it is very difficult to achieve that level in the behind-the-scenes industry of creators. To put it bluntly, I don't think you have this ability."

She looked at Daisy seriously, and continued to analyze under the disapproving eyes of the other party, "Of course, I am not denying your creative talent. In fact, your songs are very well written. Although the lyrics are not mature enough, they are also very expressive." Personal characteristics."

She thought of the sharp words, as if mercilessly stewing poisonous chicken soup, the lyrics of which could kill half a person's life in a bowl, and immediately felt very heartbroken.

"But Qiaqia's personal characteristics are too obvious, so it is difficult to achieve any great achievements as a creator."

"Songs in the hands of creators are more like commodities. They are selected and used by different singers, but your products have obvious trademarks. No matter how you package them, you can see the most essential core. Such songs that are too personal are not It will be preferred by singers, but if it is a singer-songwriter, it is another situation."

Brian looked at the quiet and pensive little girl opposite, and suddenly felt that this little girl who hadn't grown up yet exuded an ethereal and indifferent temperament like Olivia Hussey.

"Singers need to be remembered by the public. The stronger your personal characteristics are, the more your audience will be impressed with you, the higher your popularity will be, and the sales of albums will be better."

"Based on your personal qualities, I am sure that I will make you into a new generation queen no less than Britney Spears. Then you can also realize your musical dream."

Brian Pitt released his final big move, trying to convince Daisy in one fell swoop with his music dream.

But it's a pity that the current Daisy doesn't have such a thing as a music dream. For the time being, her thoughts are still stuck on what Bryan said about the accumulation of popularity and wealth, and she is frantically calculating how many albums she needs to sell to get her money. Can she get closer to her small goal of earning [-] million first?

I have to say that the penthouse that Brian built for her really moved her heart. Not only did she start to waver, but even Nancy, who had been quietly listening to Brian's crazily selling Amway, poured herself a few cups of coffee excitedly. Only then barely kept calm.

"I have one last question." Daisy still maintained her superficial calmness, showing a perfectly curved smile, which convinced Brian to package her as a dusty, noble and glamorous Kaolin flower image.

"Become a singer-songwriter and make your debut. After becoming famous, can you get tickets for Michael Jackson?"

Daisy still remembers the agreement with her father many years ago. Their family conditions are not good and they can’t afford Michael Jackson’s concert tickets. If she becomes a singer, she can get the tickets she has wanted for many years, and she will immediately ask her mother to sign. .

Brian didn't expect the little girl in front of him to have the attributes of a star-chaser girl. It's a pity that the superstar she was chasing was involved in a child ××× case, otherwise it could be used as one of the selling points to attract fans.

But being able to sign her first is the key. As for her liking for a superstar who was probably framed and involved in a case, as long as she doesn't make it public after her debut.
