It's one thing to admire willow peaches, but it's another to sign a contract to ensure your rights.
"Let's draft a contract first, and then sign the formal contract after the company is established in a couple of days."
As he said that, Chen Bei handed the contract to Liu Tao.
He also realized that there were many songs he could copy, but not every one of them was suitable for him.
In this case, why not set up your own company, train a few artists, and maximize profits?
Being an employee is not as satisfying as being a boss. Haven’t you seen those famous artists in their previous lives who tried their best to break into the capital circle and become big bosses themselves?
This is a good opportunity, and he believes Liu Tao will not refuse it.
As for whether this will work or not, and whether it has a future, who knows?
The road is always made by people, so you have to try everything.
Anyway, he has good works in his hands, so even if they are bad, he won't starve to death.
Just as Chen Bei expected, Liu Tao took the paper and pen and signed her name on it very happily.
This action made Chen Bei feel a little embarrassed, and he couldn't help but remind him:
"You'd better take a closer look at the relevant terms. If there's anything you think is inappropriate, we can discuss it further."
Liu Tao shook her head and said:
"Thank you, Mr. Chen, for your consideration. What else can I say? If I were to be hesitant, I would be being unkind."
Okay, this girl is really a passionate person.
However, Chen Bei still reminded:
"Actually, everything else is easy to discuss. The key is that we need to clarify the copyright and profit-sharing issues first."
"The copyright of the song belongs to the company. After deducting the operating costs, the profit is split 30% to 70%. You get 30% and the company gets 70%. Do you understand all this?"
Liu Tao nodded happily and said:
"No problem, I understand."
Liu Tao really didn't think there was anything wrong. She knew very well that she was not a singer-songwriter. The songs must have been written by Chen Bei or collected by the company. It was understandable that he wanted the copyright.
As for the share of the profits, she wasn't sure how much money someone like herself could make for the company. To be honest, as long as she could have a basic salary so that she could support Tang Bao, that would be enough.
But after another thought, she hurriedly asked:
"If I were to sing at a bar, would I have to share the earnings with the company?"
Chen Bei thought the other party was going to ask something, but this is the result?
He looked at Liu Tao with a strange expression and said:
"We are a legitimate company, not some Zhou Paopi. We certainly won't ask for a share of this kind of money."
"And I believe that after the new song is released, you probably won't have time to sing in bars. By then, you'll be busy enough just taking on commercial performances."
After saying that, Chen Bei laughed, and Liu Tao also laughed.
Liu Taoxiao thought Chen Bei was too humorous. How could someone like her be invited to commercial performances and receive so many of them?
Chen Beixiao felt that Liu Tao was too easy to talk to and he took advantage of her.
The song "Mouse Loves Rice" made the composer earn 170 million yuan. It is said that he performed nearly 60 commercial shows a month.
Chen Bei didn't want to exploit Liu Tao too much, so 40 commercial performances a month would be enough.
Nothing happened that night. The next day, Chen Bei went to take care of some company matters, and then started recording songs in the morning.
There’s a big difference between simply going through it and actually recording a song.
The main thing is that the coordination between the band and the singer needs to be gradually improved.
Even if everyone is old acquaintances, if you don't spend three to five days to adjust a new song, you won't get the best results.
Chen Bei was not in a hurry, as the procedures for setting up the company would take a few days anyway.
Once all the formalities are completed, the song will be almost done.
Sure enough, on the fifth day, all the procedures were completed and the company was officially established.
It’s called a company, but it’s actually just like a studio.
Of course, the necessary ceremony still had to be held. Chen Bei, Liu Tao, and several members of their band had a delicious meal in this small house.
It is to celebrate both the establishment of the company and the completion of the recording of the new single.
At the banquet, Chen Bei, who had drunk a little, patted Liu Tao on the shoulder and said:
"Sister Tao, do you believe that I can make you famous nationwide within a year, a big name in the domestic music industry within three years, and the top star in the industry within five years?"
Liu Tao's cheeks flushed from drinking. She nodded, looking at Chen Bei with a dazed look in her eyes and said:
"Of course I believe what Teacher Chen said. We're all going to become big names in the industry in the future! Cheers to our future!"
Everyone raised their glasses and drank another one. At this time, the bassist Xiao Ma who was reading inside spoke:
"Brother Chen, how do you plan to promote this song? Are you going to go through the radio channel or something like that?"
"If you want to go the radio route, I can contact the radio station in Yuntai City. I have some friends there!"
Drummer Cube also nodded and said:
"Yes, Brother Chen, the song you wrote is amazing, and Sister Tao's singing is also amazing! I'm confident that this song will be a hit! Do you want me to ask my friends in the industry to help promote it?"
Chen Bei drank another glass of wine, then slowly waved his hand and said:
"No need. We won't be using traditional channels this time. I plan to post this work directly on those music websites online."
Huh? Is this... possible?
Everyone looked at each other in surprise. No one expected that Chen Bei would do such a thing.
Even Liu Tao was a little confused and said:
"Post it online? Then everyone can listen to it for free?"
