“contract……”
Gu Huaian was stunned. Don’t tell me, he seemed to have thought of this some time ago.
In the early years, Gu Huaian, who was still an amateur, signed a five-year contract with his current company Guangyao Media. Generally, artist companies sign new hires for five to eight years. They invest in the first two years and provide some resources in the next few years. There can be no reward like this.
Gu Huaian was rather unlucky. In the two years after he joined the company, he died suddenly during the draft. In the next two and a half years, he had no resources, and it took him a long time to get into “Crystal Love Season”.
In addition, it has been nearly two years since he became popular last year. If you calculate the time, the contract will expire in the next year.
He must be the most concerned about his own affairs. Gu Huaian definitely doesn’t need to be reminded by Jiang Ma about the contract. He plans to mention this matter to the company soon.
“I do remember…”
Gu Huaian nodded and chatted with Mother Jiang for a while. This kid has learned to have high emotional intelligence now. He always said good things about the company and said that he was grateful to the company for taking care of him in the past few years…
Mother Jiang was so happy that she couldn’t help but say:
“It’s just the two of us talking. There’s no one else here, so there’s no need to talk like this.”
Gu Huaian laughed and said this was not just a pretentious comment, it was completely from the bottom of his heart!
Mother Jiang: “(¬_¬)take a look”
Believe it or not!
“Okay, stop talking about useless things and tell me what you plan to do?”
Ma Jiang asked as she really didn’t want to listen to Gu Huaian’s useless nonsense.
“Plan…”
Gu Huaian scratched his head, and for a moment he didn’t know what to tell Ma Jiang, or whether he should tell Ma Jiang.
In fact, when an artist’s contract expires, there are basically two options: renewal and job-hopping. However, when it reaches Gu Huaian’s stage, there will naturally be a corresponding increase in choices.
In addition to the above two options, he can also choose to set up his own personal studio, or directly start his own company.
After all, ordinary artists choose to renew their contracts with the company simply because the company has resources beyond their control and can be a behind-the-scenes promoter for them, which is of great help.
But at Gu Huaian’s stage, his star effect has become very strong. In many cases, he no longer needs to find resources, but resources come to him.
So in this case, the company’s role is minimal…
Not to mention, Guangyao Media, where Gu Huaian works, is not large in scale and does not have many resources. The company also takes a cut of your announcement fee.
Perhaps it is true that for artists who become popular, many brokerage companies will make corresponding concessions in terms of profit sharing, but if you are popular enough and make enough money, even if you make a big step forward, you will still lose money!
Unless the company gives you some shares, the annual dividends can make up for the commission, and then you open a personal studio affiliated with the company, that is acceptable, and the others are…
All in all, if there are no special benefits, few artists will continue to maintain their previous contract with the company after becoming popular.
Gu Huaian’s plan was actually to just…not renew the contract.
He wanted to set up his own personal studio like Pei Jingshu.
It’s not that he doesn’t like the company he works for. This company is also very good to him. The year it first became famous, it changed the share ratio a lot, allowing him to get more benefits…
The main reason is that he wants to be more free. He has a contract with the company. No matter how popular you are, you have to complete many tasks assigned by the company.
Gu Huaian is indeed an angry young man, but he has really lived through enough life, and he really doesn’t want to be like before, busy with Pei Jingshu and not seeing each other for several months.
If he opens a studio, he is the boss. He can work when he wants to and rest when he doesn’t want to. How comfortable this is!
And after setting up a personal studio, even if he lies still every year, the copyright fees for his songs are enough to keep him awake…
Speaking of this, we have to mention that when Gu Huaian authorized the song copyright to the company for operation, he only gave the management rights but not the copyright. So if he were to leave, these two more albums would definitely be lost. Follow him.
With the quality, influence, and popularity of these two albums, as well as Gu Huaian’s own reputation, traffic, and popularity, just eating these two albums every year is enough. After all, they don’t need to share with the company…
In other words, as soon as he leaves the company, Gu Huaian can lie down without any restraints.
The above are actually Gu Huaian’s plans.
but……
These words are not easy to tell Jiang Ma.
After all, she is also the boss of Gu Huaian’s current company, Guangyao Media.
“I haven’t thought about it yet…”
Gu Huaian grinned and planned to pretend first, but Jiang Ma said directly:
“I think you don’t plan to renew your contract?”
“ah?”
Gu Huai Anxin said that my thoughts are so easy to see through? !
“Ahem, that…”
Gu Huaian’s eyes were turning and he was still thinking about making excuses. He didn’t know if he was not feeling well today, but he always felt that his brain was a little slow. He who usually lied without drafting his face, blushed, and his heart didn’t beat, couldn’t think of an excuse for a while.
“You kid…”
Mother Jiang was very happy and said:
“You don’t have to be so open-minded about me. It doesn’t matter. You can just tell me what you think. Anyway, the company you are in is just one of the companies under my name.”
As soon as these words came out, Gu Huaian breathed a sigh of relief. Also, Jiang Ma had stakes in many companies. This was just a small company, so there really wouldn’t be any conflicts just because Gu Huaian didn’t renew the contract.
If the conversation goes well, she might even help Gu Huaian resolve the company’s objections to not renewing the contract.
“Um……”
So Gu Huaian nodded and told Jiang Ma about his plan. His plan was really simple, it was just to open a personal studio.
“It is indeed a good choice for you now.”
Mother Jiang nodded, first expressed her approval, and then asked with a smile:
“But I think you have other, better choices, right?”
Gu Huaian couldn’t help but smile bitterly when he heard this and said:
“There’s really nothing you can’t see through…”
Yes, Gu Huaian does have a better choice.
The fact that his contract is about to expire is not only known to him and the company, but also to many people. In other words, many people are watching the expiration of Gu Huaian’s contract!
There is also competition among artist management companies. Each company has its own leading artists, and “poaching” is not uncommon. Therefore, when the contract of the leading artist is about to expire, he will basically receive an invitation from another company. .
Basically, those invitations will have very favorable conditions, at least much better than the treatment of the artist’s current company, otherwise he will definitely not be able to poach him.
Gu Huaian’s current company, Guangyao Media, is not large in scale. With his growth rate in the past two years, continuing to stay will actually limit his development…
He knows this, and many big companies also know this, so they have long been eyeing the expiration date of Gu Huaian’s contract. Recently, several very well-known big companies have offered him an olive branch and offered him good conditions. Not to mention how tempting it is.
In addition to the promise of endorsement resources, the sky-high signing fee, how many songs to release each year, and how many albums to produce were all given to Gu Huaian according to the highest standards.
After all, Gu Huaian now is almost like a piece of gold, and everyone treats him like a treasure.
If you don’t talk about anything else, just talk about the commercial value that the 20 or 30 songs in his two albums can bring, it will definitely make those big companies make a lot of money!
This is a glittering money tree. Those big companies just shout to Gu Huaian:
“Wow, golden legend!”
Jiang Ma smiled and asked Gu Huaian:
“Aren’t you going to consider joining some big companies?”
It is indeed free to open a personal studio, but everything depends on you and your team. Many large brokerage companies are very professional when it comes to announcing resources, work development, etc. If you do it yourself, God knows how much more money you will need. How many detours have been taken.
It would be a waste if Gu Huaian’s many works were just used to earn royalties.
but……
Gu Huaian didn’t care much about this.
He is always a person who is easily contented. As long as money is enough for him, as long as energy and water flow continuously, don’t be greedy or bite off more than he can chew.
God knows how many troubles are waiting for him when he goes to a big company. In short, neither side is easy, and Gu Huaian still wants to choose the easier side.
“Don’t think about it.”
Gu Huaian laughed and joked:
“I have a bad temperament, so don’t smear me anymore for those big companies.”
These words made Mother Jiang very happy, and she said angrily that you have a good idea!
To be honest, when Gu Huaian came here, there were very few people in this place besides Jiang Ma who could clean him up.
“Ha ha……”
Gu Huaian laughed and thanked Ma Jiang for mentioning this, and the two chatted for a while.
When the conversation was almost over, Jiang Ma finally revealed the purpose of tonight.
she says:
“Have you considered setting up your own company?”
“start a company?”
Gu Huaian scratched his head. He was about to say that opening a personal studio would be too overwhelming for me. Forget it if I open a company. But don’t make it difficult for me. I’ll be fine as a hands-off shopkeeper…
Who knew that Ma Jiang would immediately say:
“If you do it, I can consider taking a stake and we can start a company together.”
As soon as these words came out, Gu Huaian could not say any words of rejection no matter what.
He was stunned, obviously not expecting Jiang Ma to make such a suggestion, but it seemed that it was in line with her style of doing things…
She knew very well that Gu Huaian didn’t like to be restricted by the company. The current small company had also restricted his development. He needed a freer and richer platform…
She has the resources and connections. She has been involved in domestic entertainment for many years and is well versed in the industry’s insider knowledge. She can definitely open a company with Gu Huaian. Although the scale may not be too large, it is unknown how many artists she can recruit in the future, but even if there are only Gu Huaian, a money tree, is enough to earn her a lot of money every year.
By the way, she estimated that if she did this, she would definitely withdraw her shares from Guangyao Media. She had already seen enough of those annoying, short-sighted and timid people.
“this……”
To be honest, the suggestion put forward by Jiang Ma was so tempting that Gu Huaian really couldn’t refuse.
But just agreeing like that seems to be too hasty…
“You should think about it first, there is no need to reply so quickly.”
Jiang Ma said:
“If Pei Jingshu is here, you can also have a chat with her. It would be great if you can get her to join the team.”
Pei Jingshu has never signed a contract with a company and has always been her own personal studio. Although her agent sister Jiang Dan doesn’t like her, I have to say that she is quite skillful and has helped Pei Jingshu block many things. , she has not missed any announcements, exposures, and marketing. Over the years, she has personally obtained all kinds of big-name resources.
If an ordinary person invites Pei Jingshu to sign a contract with a company, she will definitely not even look at it. Pei Ya may even be killed before the invitation even reaches her…
But who told this to be the company Gu Huaian wanted to open?
Gu Huaian is already a pretty big money tree, but Pei Jingshu’s business value is just as high as him. With these two “treasures of the mountain” here, are you worried about not being able to open the company?
At that time, many newcomers will rush forward and succeed, okay?
“Okay, let me think about it.”
Gu Huaian thought for a while and replied:
“There should be nothing wrong with what I say. I can’t guarantee Jingshu’s side. She can come if she wants to. If she doesn’t want to come, I won’t force her.”
To be honest, Gu Huaian doesn’t really want to have contact with Pei Jingshu on topics such as business, money, interests, etc. You said that boyfriend and girlfriend usually give each other a gift, even if it costs tens or millions, it won’t matter. It’s a no-brainer, but once it’s linked to business and personal assets are involved, problems can easily arise.
Any relationship in this world can easily deteriorate once it is linked to interests.
So even though he knew that running a company together would bring a lot of benefits to Pei Jingshu, Gu Huaian still didn’t want her to be tied to him easily at work.
“Okay, I’ll wait for your news.”
Mother Jiang nodded, exchanged a few brief greetings, and told Gu Huaian to take medicine and rest early to get better quickly. After being busy with work, she hung up the phone.
“call……”
Throwing away his cell phone, Gu Huaian lay in the quiet hotel room with his hands behind his head and stared at the ceiling in a daze for a while.
“Start a company…”
Gu Huaian also didn’t expect that he would reach this point so quickly.
Changes have been so fast in the past two years. He has gone from a simple deer man with only a few W in savings to a so-called top-tier star, a superstar with assets of over 100 million…
In fact, they are all a little uncomfortable.
Maybe it’s because he’s been busy with work all day long. In the past six months, he’s been scolded all day long for not being able to keep a high profile. Look at him now, he doesn’t even have a house or a car to his name.
Sometimes, it feels a bit unreal.
Crotch Ran, you said that you want Gu Huaian to buy a luxury car costing tens of millions to drive, and buy a mansion worth tens of millions to live in, to get some so-called sense of reality, but he still won’t do it.
He has no intention of doing this.
As I thought about it, time passed by unknowingly…
I don’t know if he slept a lot during the day or if he was too excited about opening a company. It was already very late, but Gu Huaian didn’t feel sleepy at all.
“Hehe…haha…”
Very late, the sound of a group of people laughing could be heard outside. Gu Huaian and his friends’ rooms were in the same room, so from the sound, Gu Huaian knew that it was Jiang Nuan and his friends who were back.
Gu Huaian was so angry when he mentioned this group of scoundrels that he didn’t want to talk to them at all. He pulled up the quilt and planned to go to sleep.
But who knows just a few minutes later…
“Dong dong dong…”
Suddenly there was a knock on the door.
Gu Huaian thought it was Jiang Nuan and the others who came to express their condolences, but when he opened the door and saw…
That iconic short hair and the slender figure wrapped in a white down jacket turned out to be Pei Jingshu?
“…Come to laugh at me?”
Gu Huaian is not in a good mood. You are “isolated” by a group of people. How can you be in a good mood?
“Puch…”
Pei Jingshu couldn’t help but smile when she heard this. Only then did Gu Huaian notice that her hands were behind her back. Pei Jingshu didn’t show off and took out a bag of vegetables packed from the hotel and said:
“If you don’t have an appetite, I’ll take it back for breakfast tomorrow morning.”
With that said, she turned around and left…
“Hey, no, no, no…”
Gu Huaian, the old man, was also born in the year of the dog. He was very angry just now. He turned around and pulled Pei Jingshu in with a smile on his face. He turned against her faster than turning the page in a book.
Pei Jingshu smiled and rolled her eyes at him, then obediently carried her things in. After putting down the packed meals, she ran to the door unhurriedly, took off her white down jacket and white scarf, and hung them on the hangers.
After all, she is a female star who does not rely on side effects to reap the benefits. Whether on camera or in daily life, Pei Jingshu does not like to wear very revealing clothes, especially in winter. Velvet denim trousers are always put on her legs. Despite this, those jade legs are still slender and slender, and the legs are in good shape.
After hanging up the clothes, she came back and opened the dinner she had packed and brought back for Gu Huaian.
There are three boxes, not much stuff, a whitebait soup, a bisnail shrimp, and a three-fresh wonton.
It is relatively light and more suitable for a “patient” like Gu Huaian. At night, it shouldn’t be too big.
Gu Huaian has been in Suzhou for a while to prepare for the concert. He has basically eaten many well-known local dishes. However, as a northerner, Gu Huaian is more heavy-mouthed, so Pei Jingshu brought these Gu Huaian rarely out. The food is relatively fresh.
If you want to say it’s delicious, that’s not true. It’s packed and brought back. No matter how delicious it is, if it’s simmered for dozens of minutes, it will affect the taste.
But who told it to be brought back by Pei Jingshu? Gu Huaian just thought it was delicious and basically drank it all without even a mouthful of soup left.
“call……”
This made him no longer hiccup, but let out a long breath, and almost shouted “enjoyed”!
Pei Jingshu was very virtuous. She waited quietly for him to finish eating, and then helped him pack his lunch box. After packing, it was already getting late, and she was leaving…
But Gu Huaian grabbed her hand and asked:
“Is it okay if I don’t walk?”
Pei Jingshu was stunned for a moment, then blushed with embarrassment, frowned and said:
“You haven’t recovered from your cold yet, so what are you thinking about all day long?”
Gu Huaian was still making excuses, saying:
“My main thing is… that… I sleep alone at night and I… I’m scared.”
