Chapter 211 Would you consider signing a single album contract?



Li Mengjiao's fans were cheering at the scene, and the host had a strong ability to react on the spot, and he finally made the atmosphere better.

The 2004 Super Girl competition came to an end. Wen Ying and others relied on their passes to squeeze into the backstage.

Li Mengjiao is changing clothes.

There will be celebration parties after the regional finals, and of course there will be celebration parties after the annual finals.

There are many reporters waiting to interview the top three contestants.

“I’m so tired!”

Although she said she was tired, Li Mengjiao's face was full of smiles.

Wen Ying smiled and reminded her, "After tonight, there will be other things to tire you out. The organizers promised to create personal albums for the top three contestants. Have you forgotten?"

Li Mengjiao really forgot.

They haven't signed a contract yet, so why would they release an album for her?

The Li couple exchanged glances, and Li Mengjiao's father, Li Zhentao, called Wen Ying aside. "You reminded Mengjiao, but do you agree with her signing the contract?"

Last time, Li Zhentao asked Li Mengjiao to invite Wen Ying to his home for dinner. After interacting with Wen Ying, he felt that Wen Ying was very methodical in her words and deeds, and her mind was much more mature than that of ordinary high school students. Wen Ying also predicted that the organizer would hold a "resurrection match". With many factors intertwined, Li Zhentao wanted to hear Wen Ying's opinion on the signing of the contract.

Although he didn't necessarily have to do what Wen Ying said, it wouldn't hurt to listen to what Wen Ying had to say.

Wen Ying shook her head. "My uncle and aunt share the same opinion. We don't agree with Meng Jiao signing the contract right now. She's still so young, so it would be best if she could study for a few more years."

"So you mentioned the album?"

Wen Ying whispered, "Do you and Auntie agree that Meng Jiao should enter the entertainment industry? I'm not talking about now, but after she becomes an adult or gets into college, and becomes more mature than she is now."

Li Zhentao would definitely disagree.

But after watching his daughter Li Mengjiao singing on stage, Li Zhentao was also confused.

Mengjiao was born to do this job.

It will be safe for the child to pursue other careers, and Li Zhentao and his wife don't have to worry too much.

But he evaluated his daughter's abilities conscientiously. She was neither good nor bad in her studies, not smart enough, and not extremely intelligent. Apart from letting her do what she was best at, it would be difficult for Li Mengjiao to reach the top in other areas.

Choose the mediocre but steady path, or the extraordinary but rugged one?

Li Zhentao wants to choose the former.

He felt his daughter would choose the second path.

Of course, he and his wife can use their status as parents to force their daughter to choose the first path, letting Mengjiao live a mediocre life under the protection of her parents. In the future, when Mengjiao sees her friends having their own wonderful lives, will she blame her parents?

Among ordinary people, mediocre people are the majority.

If you want to transcend mediocrity and embrace an extraordinary life, strength, opportunity and choice are all indispensable.

Li Zhentao knew that his daughter now possessed the first two elements.

Facing Wen Ying's question, Li Zhentao finally shook his head:

"To be honest, I don't have an answer to this question yet. I haven't thought it through. I'm afraid that the choice I make isn't what Jiaojiao wants. Wen Ying, I don't know if you can understand my uncle's feelings. We only have Jiaojiao as a daughter, and this is my first time being a father. When it comes to raising a child, I don't have a standard answer to follow. I can only grope my way through it. But many times, life is different from the way you do your homework. If you make a mistake, it's not as simple as erasing the wrong answer and starting over."

Wen Ying could feel Li Zhentao's nervousness and hesitation.

From an outsider's perspective, Li Zhentao must be very decisive and courageous to be able to manage such a large enterprise. Perhaps this is indeed the case at work, but once it comes to his family and Li Mengjiao, Li Zhentao is no different from many ordinary fathers in the world.

At this moment, Wen Ying really wanted to grab Comrade Lao Wen to come and listen to the class.

——Since you are both first-time fathers and have no experience, can’t you learn from Li Zhentao?

No one is perfect. Wen Ying does not ask Comrade Lao Wen to be a 100% loving father. If Lao Wen is half as good as Li Zhentao, Wen Ying will also try her best to be a daughter that Lao Wen is proud of!

well.

Not only are all good men someone else's boyfriends, but most good fathers are also someone else's.

Wen Ying tried hard to eliminate distractions and focus on the present:

"So you actually want to leave the choice to Mengjiao herself, right? You're not agreeing to Mengjiao signing the contract now because you're worried she's too young. If she really decides to enter the entertainment industry in the future, you and your aunt will still respect her choice. If that's the case, you should talk to the organizers and finalize the album release for the top three contestants."

Wen Ying wanted to not sign an agency contract, but only sign the album contract promised by the organizer.

Without participating in commercial performances, the promotional activities for an album are actually limited. If both parties reach an agreement and try to arrange all promotional activities on weekends, it will not affect Li Mengjiao's studies too much.

This album can temporarily maintain Li Mengjiao's popularity and prevent the fan base she has established from participating in the talent show from disappearing quickly after the competition ends.

The fan base is still there, and the choice is in Li Mengjiao's hands.

If there are popular songs in the album, it will be much easier for Li Mengjiao to make her debut after she gets into college three years later than for an ordinary amateur!

Li Zhentao was a little moved.

"Will the organizers agree?"

Wen Ying smiled, "Uncle Li, you're a frequent participant in corporate-level negotiations. With you on board, we shouldn't be afraid of not being able to close this one album deal, right?"

If there are common interests, we can cooperate. There is no contract that cannot be negotiated. It just depends on whether one party’s concessions are sufficient!

For the organizers, Li Mengjiao is so popular, and they would definitely be unwilling to not make any money from her.

If we had asked for a single album contract before, the organizer would have definitely rejected it.

Now that the competition is over, Li Mengjiao's family won't choose a management contract over a single album contract. An album contract would at least allow the organizers to recoup some of their losses. Of course, the organizers have their own concerns: what if they spend money on Li Mengjiao's album and it doesn't sell well? If they sign a long-term contract and the first album doesn't make money, the company can still make it back elsewhere. If Li Mengjiao doesn't participate in commercial performances, the company will be in even greater trouble!

However, these are things that can be discussed.

The Li couple doesn't care how much money Li Mengjiao makes from the album. They just want to keep the opportunity for Li Mengjiao to choose, so they can make concessions on the share of the album revenue.

Wen Ying doesn't have to worry about these details.

Li Zhentao finally smiled after hearing Wen Ying's flattery. "Where did you learn all that from? If all the kids nowadays were as smart as you, there would be no place for us old folks!"

After Li Zhentao and Wen Ying finished talking, Li Mengjiao found that her father was in a particularly high mood.

"What did Wen Ying say?"

Li Zhentao waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about it. Just celebrate happily with your friends tonight."

Qin Jiao, Wang Shuang and others surrounded Wen Ying and asked her questions, but Wen Ying smiled without saying anything.

Only Xie Qian remained unusually calm.

What else can we talk about? It must be the organizer's promise to release an album for the top three contestants.

Xie Qian had basically figured out the hamster's personality.

Wen Ying will not take advantage of others, but she will definitely try her best to get what she deserves.
