Liang Liang took a deep breath and glanced at Xiaoqian and Xiaoyao's faces.
These two little monsters are getting prettier and prettier. Although they're a good deal for me now, who knows which bastard will end up with them in the future.
As for Xu Mei… if she were to stand between Xiaoqian and Xiaoyao and herself…
Liang Liang shivered and didn't dare to stay in the room for long, so he quietly left.
Fortunately, he had the experience from his previous life, and he was very restrained in this life; otherwise, the trouble caused by women would have made him suffer terribly.
The afternoon preliminary rounds continued until 5:30 p.m., with another 35 singers participating in the afternoon competition.
Overall, while the overall level of this farmers' singer competition wasn't particularly high, it did reveal some promising talents.
Liu Wen took a liking to several singers who were both very good-looking and had great voices.
However, they have only taken a liking to them and have no intention of signing them yet.
He's retiring next summer and is starting to relax now.
At dinner, Liang Liang, Liu Wen, Jin Hao, Chen Xiaoqi, and Yu Lingling sat at one table, and this time they finally had time to ask each other some questions.
Last night, Liu Wenjin and his group were tired from their journey, so Liang Liang told them to rest without asking them how they were doing.
He went to sell electric guitars at noon today and didn't rekindle his relationship with them. He didn't ask them anything. Now he finally has time to have a proper chat.
"President Liu! President Jin! What brings you to Lianwan City all of a sudden? This is truly beyond my expectations."
"Of course there's something going on! If there's nothing going on, we're here for a vacation!" Liu Wen replied with a smile.
"Now is the perfect season for tourism. There are still some places worth visiting for our generation. Once I'm done with my work, I'll take you on a tour of the mountains and rivers of southern Liaoning."
"That's exactly what we came for. You've been raving about how beautiful Bingyugou is! We'd like to see if it's as wonderful as you claim!"
"Seeing is believing, and you'll find out when the time comes. Now, tell me the purpose of your visit."
Would you believe me if I said we'd send you money?
Giving you money? Why don't you believe it?
Both Pacific and Jinmeng owe him a lot of money.
"This news is very encouraging. Let me see how much money they're giving me?"
Liu Wen didn't say anything, but smiled and took out two checks from his pocket.
"One is for your band, and one is for you alone."
The band's share is naturally the profit from the album; this is the second time they've shared profits from this album.
They split the profits once a month after the album's release.
The band's album profit share was 4.13 million, but Liang Liang didn't pay much attention to the change.
His personal money came from the secondary profit sharing with the bands Ocean Wave and Mayday.
Liang Liang's eyes lit up when he saw the money on the check.
The secondary profit sharing from these two bands' albums reached a staggering 5.05 million.
Holy crap! How many copies of these two albums have they sold in China?
Liang Liang put away the check and looked at Jin Hao.
Liu Wen's share of the profits is only domestic; the overseas profits are all in Jin Hao's hands.
Jin Hao also took out two mainland checks.
“We have converted your income into Chinese currency according to the national exchange rate, and it is all here.”
Jin Hao also gave two checks. The band's share was 5.6 million, and Liang Liang's personal share was 6 million.
Don't be fooled by Jin Hao's large sum of money; this is the first time he's received a share of the profits from their own album, and five million isn't a lot.
However, Mayday and Sea Waves' albums have a second round of profit sharing, which is more than that of mainland China.
This is because overseas albums are priced higher than those sold in mainland China.
A genuine audio tape in China usually costs eight or nine yuan, and even commemorative or limited editions only sell for twelve yuan.
Overseas, however, a regular edition starts at over fifteen yuan, while a commemorative edition can easily cost over twenty yuan.
Liang Liang carefully put away the two checks; cashing such a large sum of money would take a lot of trouble.
"Besides that, Mr. Chen and I came here mainly to see the cultural atmosphere here. The Pacific Song and Dance Troupe mostly holds concerts in the south, and we are preparing to come to the Northeast to bring a rich cultural life to the people of the Northeast."
Liu Wen's words infuriated Liang Liang. "Why don't you just say you're here to make money? Why do you have to exaggerate your abilities? Aren't you afraid someone will deflate your tires and make you fall flat on your back?"
"Where's Mr. Jin? You wouldn't be thinking of bringing your Jinmeng Company employees here to hold a concert, would you?"
“We didn’t mean that at all. We’re already busy with our own concerts, we don’t have time to come here to hold a concert.”
"Then what are you doing here? Did you come here with General Manager Liu for sightseeing?"
"You know what, we actually came with him, but not for sightseeing. Shi Zhang and Chen Jiewen haven't released a new album in a year since their last one, and their singles haven't been very successful. Since they're going to release an album, I think we can't do without you, the great master."
Liang Liang blinked a few times: "So you mean you want a song?"
"That's one way to put it, but it's about buying, not asking for. If we asked for, we were afraid you'd try to fool us."
Jin Hao's words were half true and half false; half a joke and half the truth.
"Mr. Jin! You're being too polite. I can't fool you, no matter who you are."
It's just a few songs; Liang Liang wouldn't stoop to fooling people.
These two things are actually minor matters; the following matters are the real big ones.
“I’ve discussed with Mr. Jin that we’re planning to open a joint venture audio-visual company in Lianwan City. Would you like to join? You can become a shareholder by contributing three million, and the three of us will share the shares equally.”
Liang Liang fell silent.
Liu Wen and Jin Hao planned to open an audio-visual company in Lianwan, a plan that surprised Liang Liang.
Liang Liang actually had a plan to open his own audio-visual company, but not now. His plan was to open the company in Lianwan next year.
But now Liu Wen and Jin Hao want to open an audio-visual company in Lianwan City. Should he join or not?
The benefits of joining are that having more shareholders can share the company's operating costs and reduce investment risks. Another benefit is that Jinmeng Company and Pacific Company have existing sales channels both domestically and internationally.
The downside is that the share of profits is reduced, and you don't have much say in the matter.
When a company is operating well, everyone is happy, but once the operating conditions deteriorate, various conflicts will arise.
Liang Liang felt it was better not to get involved in this mess.
Liu Wenming retired that year, and it's unknown whether this company was a way for him to manage things after retirement. If something goes wrong, there would be too much trouble.
Even if he had no ulterior motives in running the company, he would have transferred it to the Pacific Corporation after his retirement.
Can the successor of Pacific Company and Jin Hao really get along?
If people can't urinate in the same pot, conflict is bound to arise.
If two people are arguing, must one of them throw it away?
Once they can no longer continue operating, can I simply pick up a ready-made company?
Liang Liang felt that this possibility was very high, and he believed that waiting for the opportunity to strike was a wise choice.
