"Because I feel very similar to Mr. Zhang's music concept, I came to the mainland in person this time!" Jay Chou said, but he was not surprised at all. Although since he became famous, many people have imitated his music style, but he has never
There is no one who can imitate him, let alone be better than him, so he has always been the super king who has always been imitated and never surpassed.
But this time he overheard some of Zhang Yicheng's songs and found that the style was surprisingly similar to his. This prompted him to take time out from his busy work to come to the mainland.
Of course, it also means to avoid Wu Zongxian’s entanglement and hide from peace and quiet.
Similar, of course similar, because Jay Chou is the original author!
Of course, Zhang Yicheng would never say this.
"These four songs have been highly praised by everyone in our company. We are willing to buy out the rights to use each song for 80,000 yuan. What do you think?" Jay Chou said.
Eighty thousand songs, which is naturally much better than the previous bargain price of 50,000 songs offered by Rolling Stone Records. Basically, if a newcomer can get this price, it is a miracle, and it is a miracle among miracles. This is not what Zhang Yicheng said.
, but the price given by Jay Chou
From this aspect, Jay Chou is undoubtedly much more kind than the people at Rolling Stone Records.
"Sure!" Zhang Yicheng said
"Actually, there is another thing we want to discuss with Mr. Zhang when we come here this time!" Jay Chou said.
"I would like to hear the details!" Zhang Yicheng said
"In the demo we heard before, everyone in our company thought Mr. Zhang's voice was very good. I wonder if Mr. Zhang has ever thought about becoming a singer!" Jay Chou said seriously.
"Be a singer?" Zhang Yicheng said coldly.
"Yes, be a singer!" Jay Chou said
In fact, Zhang Yicheng has always had a good voice. After listening to the demo sent by Zhang Yicheng, Jay Chou immediately felt that Zhang Yicheng is very suitable to be a singer. He has a very beautiful voice and can write his own songs. These two points alone are enough to establish himself in the music world. Jay Chou played
As long as Zhang Yicheng's image is not so exposed that even makeup can't cover it up, Zhang Yicheng must be signed.
In fact, Jay Chou originally planned to sign a few more artists when the company officially opened for business. He wanted to establish a company, a company that would gradually grow, not a Jay Chou Music Studio!
Although Jewel is now basically supported by the members of his original studio, there is still a big difference between the studio and the company. The studio only revolves around him, while the company has to sign more artists.
, extending his tentacles to the entire entertainment industry, which is naturally different from what he thought when he was an artist before. Now he is the boss.
I don't know why, but now Jay Chou seems to be able to understand Wu Zongxian's approach. Jay Chou, who was very unhappy because of the contract, seems to have begun to understand how to be a boss.
After seeing Zhang Yicheng, I felt that my worries were completely unnecessary. Although Zhang Yicheng is not earth-shatteringly handsome, he can be said to be handsome. He looks very pleasing to the eye. In the entertainment industry, this is indeed inconspicuous.
, but that’s from the perspective of idol artists, but for powerful artists like Jay Chou, this image is already too good. For example, Jay Chou himself, in fact, his image is just average.
Therefore, he immediately made the decision to sign Zhang Yicheng. In the music world, talented people can soar into the sky with a little opportunity. This is reality. This is something those so-called idols will never understand.
, can’t be done either
Just as appearance is innate, Jay Chou's appearance is not outstanding, but his talent is also innate. His extraordinary talent has allowed him to embark on the road to becoming a king step by step.
The reason why Jay Chou was willing to pay a high price to buy Zhang Yicheng's songs in the first place was to give Zhang Yicheng a good impression. Hundreds of thousands of dollars are nothing to the current Jay Chou.
It’s just a drop in the bucket. If you can exchange hundreds of thousands of dollars for a talented artist, it’s a good deal no matter how you look at it!
"Although our company, Jewel, is a newly established company, the members of our company are all former members of my studio. They are all familiar with the packaging of singers. They are very experienced and have previous connections, so you don't have to worry.
What's wrong with us is that what we can provide is something that many big companies can't provide. Those big companies have so many artists, so they certainly can't give you the most complete care, but we are different. If you sign in,
You are our only newcomer, so naturally we will give you our full support!" Jay Chou said quite seductively.
Zhang Yicheng secretly cursed, who said Jay Chou can't speak? Isn't he very good at talking? What he said is quite tempting, but Zhang Yicheng was unmoved. This means that he is just beautiful!
Except for a few monsters like Jay Chou, almost all the king-level artists in the entertainment industry come from arrogant companies. This can be seen. There are some things that outsiders don't know, but insiders like Zhang Yicheng don't know!
Although large companies have many artists, it is difficult for them to give full attention to newcomers, and they are generally very reluctant to hire new people. However, it has to be admitted that large companies have the advantages of large companies and wide channels of contacts. For example, a film company, even if you
So what if there are good works? A bad movie can get twice as many screens as yours, and the box office will be on par with yours.
In fact, many times there is no fairness at all in the entertainment industry. There are only strict hierarchical pyramids. Zhang Yicheng understands this very well. To break this pyramid, you can only rely on your own efforts and your own hands.
But he refused
"Sorry, I don't want to be a singer!" Zhang Yicheng refused with a smile. His ambition is not here, but to bring one artist after another to the top. Isn't this much more interesting than being an artist himself?
But this road is destined to be more difficult. It will never be as simple as being a singer. As a singer, he can quickly become popular based on the songs he knows well. He has a good appearance and a nice voice. It is easy to become popular.
But that kind of life is not what he desires
The road of being an agent is more difficult and full of challenges, but that is his future!
"Mr. Zhang, your conditions are actually very good. It would be a pity not to be a singer!" Jay Chou said
"Haha, actually, although I don't want to be a singer, we might still have the opportunity to cooperate in the future!" Zhang Yicheng smiled, with an inexplicable smile on his lips.
