While Li Qingzang was studying at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, Taylor, who was in the United States, encountered a dilemma that made her hesitate.
"Ten million dollars?"
In the living room, Taylor's breathing was a little rapid, and his beautiful light blue pupils exuded a strange light, "Why do you give me such a high price?"
"Because you are worth it." Manager Diana shrugged: "For a singer who has topped the Billboard charts for three consecutive weeks, ten million US dollars is indeed a bit high, but as of now, you are indeed worth it. Of course, this ten million US dollars is a bit high.
, in addition to the three-year signing bonus, it also includes your liquidated damages. Your liquidated damages in Hanhai are also as high as tens of millions, but they are RMB, which is nothing compared to ten million US dollars. Don’t worry,
With these ten million dollars, you can do whatever you want, including buying a house of several hundred square meters anywhere in USA, so have you considered it?"
"You just told me about this, how can I have time to think about it?"
Taylor fiddled with the ends of her hair, with an indescribable taste in her eyes.
This is not the first time someone has come to talk to her about changing jobs. Since "Faded" became a hit, contracts from countless record companies across North America have been pouring in. But this time it is different. Not only is the price high, but this company
The company is also owned by Sony, one of the three largest record companies in the world.
Sony was willing to pay her a signing fee of more than three million U.S. dollars a year, and she would sign for three years at a time, which made her somewhat unexpected. You must know that at Hanhai, her salary source only includes advertising endorsements. At present, she only
She only endorsed one chocolate brand, and the endorsement price was US$180,000. However, the endorsement fee in her hands, after tax, was only over US$50,000.
Taylor didn't think much about this, and was even happy because she had an extra $50,000. She sent all the $50,000 to her family, leaving only a small part of her living expenses. In fact, she didn't
She needs living expenses, and Hanhai's overseas office has included all her expenses into the company's accounts. No matter what she buys, the company will reimburse her.
Companies have provided her with things like houses, cars, cosmetics, etc. To put it simply, she is very satisfied with her current life, which is much better than when she was an intern editor at National Geographic.
It's just that being alone in the United States is always a bit lonely. It's not like being in the capital, where you have someone to talk to and go shopping with, and you don't have to worry about being watched by people when you go out.
Since the release of "Faded", it has not only increased the sales of Audi A6, but also increased the exposure of the singer of this song. Not long after, this song successfully appeared on the largest and most important music list in Europe and the United States.
Billboard, and then it was like a rocket, climbing to the top of the list.
You must know that the Billboard list covers more than ten countries and regions, including the entire Europe and the United States. Therefore, Taylor's current net worth is not limited to the United States.
"Oh, think about it slowly, there is still a lot of time, don't be in a hurry." After Diana said this, she left Taylor's residence and went to do her own business.
Diana is an agent recruited by Hanhai in the United States. Although she has contacted Hanhai, she has never been to China. Naturally, she does not have much sense of belonging to Hanhai. Moreover, she feels that Sony is much better than Hanhai. The former is a behemoth.
The latter may only exist in deep mountains and old forests!
If Taylor can go to Sony, Diana will naturally have a certain chance of joining Sony. With her current friendship with Taylor, she may continue to be Taylor's agent!
At this time, Taylor stayed in the living room and thought for a long time without coming up with a reason.
In the end, she scratched her hair vigorously, and the next moment she took out her mobile phone, called her good friend on the other side of the ocean, and told her about the incident.
"Sony wants to sign you? Ten million? Or US dollars?"
When Cai Li heard this number, her mouth opened wide enough to swallow a salted duck egg. After a while, she said, "Are you sure this is true?"
"Yes, the head of Sony in the U.S. talked to us personally," Taylor said.
Cai Li was speechless for a long time: "Then what do you think? Are you willing to go to Sony? If it is ten million US dollars, then the company's liquidated damages cannot restrain you."
"Ah?" Taylor said distressedly: "Of course I don't want to go, but..."
"But you're worried that the company's tentacles won't be able to reach Europe and the United States, right?" Cai Li asked.
Taylor shook his head and said: "I'm not worried about this. As long as the company is willing to enter the United States, it will be a matter of time to conquer the United States. I believe in the boss's ability! "Faded" can dominate the bulletin board for so long. If there are a few more songs, hehe
Hee, is that okay? Now, I'm just worried that the boss doesn't pay attention to this..."
Cai Li thought so too.
At present, the company seems to not have much thought about Europe and the United States except for the appearance of "Faded" in the United States, and "faded" is because of Audi's advertising endorsement. Otherwise, the company seems to have no idea of entering Europe and the United States.
.
From this sign, we can see that Hanhai does not seem to have any plans to dominate the European and American music scene in the short term.
But this time and that time.
Even Cai Li didn't expect that Taylor would be so popular in the United States now. There is obviously an information asymmetry in this!
Although Cai Li knew that Billboard was very powerful, she didn't quite understand what was so great about it. She only knew that these were some of the most famous music charts in the United States. The fact that "Faded" topped the Billboard charts was probably just as good as being on the Billboard charts.
Are the top spots on the Mainland song charts similar?
You know, Cai Li’s songs have also topped the charts!
She personally doesn’t think it’s anything special!
Therefore, she didn't pay much attention to the top spot on the Billboard list, and just regarded it as an honor. Before this, she even called Taylor to express her congratulations.
But now, the situation has obviously changed!
Sony!
The three major record companies in the world, giants as famous as Universal and Warner, are actually willing to pay 10 million US dollars to poach Taylor!
At this price, if you put it on Li Qing, there might still be a chance!
When it comes to Cai Li, no, including Qin Hai and Bao Yunyun, all three of them may not be worthy of Sony's price!
In other words, little Taylor, who was once unknown in the company, became an international first-line star in just a few months?
"Taylor, hold on tight. Some things cannot be undone once you make a wrong step. This matter is too important. I can't give you any advice. If you are not sure, just ask the boss in person. Only the boss will take it seriously.
You can have better results."
Cai Li said: "In addition, Taylor, I can tell you for sure that as long as the boss is here, your future will definitely be more than just 10 million US dollars!"
