Great Artist

Chapter 80: Opportunity

Gu Luobei ignored Eden Hudson, sat at the desk, turned on the computer, and habitually opened the mailbox first to send and receive emails. Clicking on the email from Sean Mayer, this freely chosen agent can definitely be said to be a good teacher and friend on Gu Luobei’s Internet. The two of them have been at each other’s throats in the discussion of music, which has benefited Gu Luobei a lot.

“Dear Bell, this melody is absolutely excellent, but it’s not easy to write a beautiful lyric match. I don’t think you need to worry, inspired by life, you will find suitable lyrics. For For the melody itself, I think it’s better to play it with an acoustic guitar, but the piano version is too cold, but it loses that fresh sadness.

Recently, the Internet has praised the three songs you uploaded before. Haven’t you considered releasing a single? You can do the production yourself and then contact the company for distribution. Although Free Choice is an independent record company and its distribution channels are not as good as those of big companies, it is also very willing to become a Bole who discovers the next talent.

From Mayer, who is too busy. ”

The melody mentioned in Sean Mayer’s email is the song that Gu Luobei temporarily named “A”. The two have exchanged an email to discuss it. This is Sean Mayer’s song. reply. Gu Luobei’s willingness to share songs that have not been completed and have not yet registered copyrights to Sean Mayer and listen to his opinions, which shows the relationship between the two people today.

At present, Gu Luobei has only uploaded three songs on the music blog “11”, “The Last”, “Broad Seas and Sky” and “Just a Dream”, but each song has a different version for netizens to comment on. One of the most popular is naturally “Just a Dream”, which has been sought after by many netizens. The fame of this song has even begun to spread on the outside. Sean Mayer has seen the recommendation of this song in the Yahoo community. Special post.

Gu Luobei still has two songs that have not yet been produced, “Tianguang” and “A”, but they are very difficult, and they are slowly planned; there is also a finished song “I want to cry tonight”, but Gu Luobei has I don’t want to expose the most vulnerable part of my heart like this. I’ll make it public after he sees it. As for the “Crazy World” which belongs to “Death Illusion”, Gu Luobei plans to wait for the release date of the movie to be set before uploading it to his blog.

Looking at the second half of Sean-Mayer’s email, Gu Luobei’s busy hands stopped, “Release a single?” Although Gu Luobei had this kind of music when he set up his own independent music studio Ideas, including setting up a music blog, are also for future albums. It’s just that Gu Luobei didn’t expect that the opportunity came so quickly, and at the moment when he was preparing to release an album in a melancholy mood, fate is really wonderful.

During Gu Luobei’s departure for the Great Smoky Mountains, when Claire Days visited again, Teddy Bell naturally greeted his younger brother. It’s not that Gu Luobei didn’t consider Warner Records’ attitude, but Claire Days and Teddy Bell didn’t have a deep discussion that day, and he couldn’t speculate. It was estimated that the big record companies still had their shelf, so he gave up.

But now, the proposal of free choice has made Gu Luobei’s heart move. He makes music by himself and then distributes it to the record company. This is naturally the best choice. However, should I contact Warner Records? The sincerity of the two visits cannot be ignored, and Teddy Bell was also very satisfied with Claire Days’ attitude that day. It is not easy for a manager of a top record company in the world to do so.

Gu Luobei took out the business card of Claire Dess from his wallet, put it on the table, and covered the ring finger of his right hand with his left hand. This has become his habitual action when thinking.

Claire Days has been having a tough time recently, and his insistence on Evan Bell has caused some controversy in the company. On the one hand, he was rejected twice in a row, indicating that his negotiating ability needs to be strengthened; on the other hand, because there are countless talented people, many people think there is no need to waste resources on a tree. If it weren’t for the support of the boss above, Claire Days would have been unable to hold her head up in front of the department manager.

The boss above was referring to Vice President Lee Kelleher. After this former Universal Group deputy general manager moved to Warner Music, he was named Vice President, currently in charge of the copyright department, and was the top manager of Claire Days. By chance, Lee Kelleher heard the song “Just a Dream” and was astonished. He praised Claire Dyce’s proposal, so he insisted against Evan Bell. Have a good relationship. It is indeed a puzzling thing to have a good relationship with a creator and singer who does not have any fame and who has not yet produced any amazing works in the world. However, Lee Kelleher’s new office took three fires, so the proposal was implemented, but all the pressure made Claire Days, a small shrimp, carry it.

Claire Days, who was busy at the desk, found that the phone was vibrating on the desk, rubbed his aching temples, picked up the phone, and saw that the caller ID was an unfamiliar number, but he still picked up the phone, “Hello, this is Claire Days.”

“Hello, Mr. Dais. This is Evan Bell.” The voice from the other end of the phone made Claire Daiston sit up, and the smile on her face couldn’t help but bloom. It’s not that Evan Bell’s call has profound significance, but this call at least shows that his sincerity is still effective, which has a great effect on reducing the pressure on him in the company.

“Mr. Bell, I’m very happy to receive your call.” Claire Dess smiled directly, and her tone was much more relaxed. “The spring semester has just started recently, so the school must be very busy?”

Perhaps Claire Days’s words were very sincere, but in Gu Luobei, he heard polite words. He was confident, but he would not be arrogant to think that a call from a small person would make Warner Records flattered. The fact is also true, Warner Records did not pay much attention to it, it was Claire Days, who was very important to him personally.

“It’s always been like this in the school, and it hasn’t changed much.” Gu Luobei is definitely an expert when it comes to polite words. He can go around in circles for half an hour without getting to the point, absolutely no problem.

The two of them went around for four or five minutes without getting into the topic. If Claire Days hadn’t lost his temper, he asked, “Is there something wrong with Mr. Bell’s call today?” .

Claire-Dace’s slightly urgent tone, Gu Luobei naturally felt it, although he wondered why the other party was so eager, but Gu Luobei did not hesitate, and directly stated the purpose, “I have a deal that I want to make with you. company talk.”

This sentence immediately made Claire Days’ eyes light up, “Is Mr. Bell willing to sign with our company?” In other words, Claire Days would never be so reckless. The point of negotiation is not to be impatient. But during this time, Claire Days’ situation in the department was really not good, so the language was inevitably a little anxious. After speaking, Claire Days also realized his mistake, and hurriedly said, “Warner Records is definitely your best choice, you must know that our company is not only the world’s top five record…”

Claire-Dyce’s praise for Warner Records was endless. Gu Luobei naturally knew his purpose. Another important point of negotiation is to have the chips. Those with more chips have the upper hand, but the ones with more chips are the winners. Claire – Dyce is now on the mend, increasing Warner Music’s bargaining chip.

After Claire-Dais finished speaking skillfully, Gu Luobei’s smile couldn’t help but pull up, “Mr. Dais, in fact, this transaction is not negotiated with your company, but I hope your company can act as a middleman. , let me talk to a third party. Of course, your company will be the middleman, because your company can also cooperate with a third party, and the benefits will definitely exceed my record contract, and you can even say hundreds of top singers. A record deal isn’t necessarily worth the deal.”

Claire Days couldn’t help but be stunned. When did Evan Bell become a businessman? However, these remarks obviously extinguished Claire-Dace’s thoughts. Gu Luobei didn’t want to sign with Warner Records, but just wanted to use Warner Records as a middleman.

Who would believe it?

An independent musician, who was unmoved by the two invitations from Warner Records, and wanted to use Warner Records as an intermediary~www.readwn.com~ to make deals with third parties. Isn’t this a big joke!

The words of Claire Days’ rejection were already rolling on the tip of his tongue, but he thought of his previous strategy. He must befriend Evan Bell, not only for the sake of a singer, but also for the future of an excellent songwriter. longterm development. The words of refusal were swallowed abruptly. Claire Days thought about it for less than a second, and the words on his lips became, “Does Mr. Bell want to sign a contract with another company through our company?”

A hearty laughter came from the other end of the phone, “Mr. Days, if you want to sign with a big record company, Warner is an excellent choice, why should I go far?” Claire Days’ face couldn’t help turning red, It was his second miss of the day, **** it.

“Mr. Dais, I have decided that I will make music myself, and then hand over the distribution rights to other companies.” Gu Luobei then explained that this was his decision. If there is a chance to cooperate with Warner Records in the future, That would be the best. “But I think Warner Records is definitely not interested in the release of a single by an unknown singer, so I didn’t mention this.”

Claire Days nodded. Although Warner Records also publishes, in addition to its own company’s artists, it also publishes on other small record companies, but more will focus on albums – the album market is still prosperous at this time, the company Still focusing on the album. Therefore, Warner Records will indeed not release the singles of an independent musician like Gu Luobei.

“Who is the third-party company that Mr. Bell wants us to connect with?” Claire Dess finally did not make a fool of himself and focused on the core issue.
