Chapter 89: The Ideal of Two People

The five members of the band are gathering to discuss the arrangement of the new album.

The door opened suddenly, and the agent rushed in with a laptop.

"What's the matter?" The vocalist asked, and the agent's panic-stricken appearance made him a little uneasy.

"Look at it, I just found a video. At the Hong Kong Olympic Games, an athlete sang a song." The agent put the notebook in the center of the crowd and started playing a video. This is a clear video, which the broker finally found.

"When I'm different from the world, then it makes me different, and insisting on it is just taking gang."

"If I compromise with myself, if I lie to myself, even if someone forgives me, I can't forgive."

"..."

"This, how is it possible that the lyrics are the same!" The lead singer exclaimed. As the author of this song, he remembers every word of the lyrics firmly in his heart.

"And even the same name, also called, Stubborn," The agent said.

At this moment, everyone in the field flashed a possibility: the new album was leaked!

"Did our new album leak?" The band's guitarist asked.

"Impossible." The oldest drummer in the band said: "For this new album, we went to Japan especially, and we selected ten of the twenty-seven original songs, which were then produced by Japanese companies. The media simply does not know the progress of our album, let alone leak it. "

After the drummer finished speaking, he turned his attention to the lead singer. This song was written by the vocalist a few months ago, and several of the band's people only heard this song after they arrived in Japan. That is to say, if it is leaked, then the author of the song is also the vocalist is the most suspected. However, as a member of the team, the drummer did not doubt the lead singer. They have been in the band for several years, and they are intimate with each other. He understands that a lead singer is a person, and it is impossible to deliberately leak new songs.

The lead singer watched the video again, and then said: "You listen carefully, the arrangement is different from ours."

Everyone listened carefully. The vocal tune and rhythm of the singers were the same as their works, only the arrangement, although some parts sounded the same, the words carefully listened to are different from theirs.

For a song, the music is the soul. If the arrangement is different, it also means that the song has a different soul. In the eyes of professional musicians, it cannot be regarded as the same song. For example, many singers have changed their singing methods, changed their lyrics, changed English lyrics to Chinese lyrics, and changed Cantonese lyrics to Mandarin lyrics, but as long as the tunes remain unchanged, then they are considered to cover singers.

"This arrangement is very good, absolutely first-class level." The guitarist said.

The lead vocalist also nodded. In terms of style, the arranger is more mature than himself. He can feel that the song contains a deeper level of life perception and experience.

"The arrangement is great, it's top-notch." The lead singer frowned and thought for a while, then said: "This level of arrangement is even more powerful than ours, and they would not copy our stuff!"

"What shall we do now?" The drummer asked.

The lead singer hesitated and said, "Change the song, anyway, there are more than a dozen songs to choose from."

"But this song is the main song of our album and your hard work, do you have the heart to give up?" The drummer continued: "And it's just the same lyrics, our arranger is different from him."

"But there is no difference in essence!" The lead singer shook his head: "In the first half of this year, you should know about the things I encountered. My grandmother passed away, and some things in my family were also exploded by the reporter. I fell from heaven to hell, I think the world seems to be betraying me, people around the world are scolding me, I almost want to give up, but I know, I can't give up, and I won't give up. So I wrote that song, it was my heart, my pursuit of music, and my insistence on ideals. "

"If other people sing this song, I might stop it. I worry that they will desecrate my music and desecrate my ideals." The vocalist paused and took a deep breath and said, "But Zhang Guan doesn't in the same way, he is an Olympic champion, he broke the world record. I can understand that as a yellow man, he can come to this day, he must have paid hardships and pains, and must have experienced setbacks and failures. He sang more than it just being a song, but perseverance in ideals. Each of us is pursuing the ideal. Perhaps on this road, he is more persistent and more persistent than us, but in any case, we and he will be stubborn. I will go on without going back! "

...

Manager Wang is the business manager of the Nike company who is mainly responsible for contacting the track and field line. Last winter, he used to go to Zhang Guan with the people of the field management center. He hoped to be able to sign Zhang Guan as a spokesperson, but Zhang Guan refused, and soon entering the stage of preparing for the Olympics, the Olympic contestants stopped all commercial activities, and the signing of Zhang Guan was also forgotten by him.

But just ten days ago, when the news that Zhang Guan broke the record and won the Olympic 100-meter championship came back to China, Manager Wang was immediately ignorant! As a Chinese, he was very happy that such a breakthrough could be achieved in the 100-meter sprint event, but at the same time, he also regretted that if he could apply a little more pressure or raise the price a little bit, maybe Zhang Guan would sign a contract. Hundreds of thousands of people signed a "world's first trapeze" as a spokesperson, which is a great achievement, enough for President James to be impressed by him, and the possibility of future promotion and salary increase will also greatly increase!

But regret is no longer useful now, he received the latest instructions from President James, asking him to sign a contract with Zhang Guan as soon as possible. The company has received the news, and the managers of several competitors have also been dispatched. They all hope to sign Zhang Guan as a spokesperson to increase their share in the domestic market.

So Manager Wang came to the field management center. Instead of going to the center responsible for the business operation of the athletes, he found Director Sun. That is the director Sun who signed the contract with Zhang Guan last winter.

A leader can't do everything by himself. It is enough to grasp the direction of work and do a good job in decision-making. When it comes to handling specific matters, it is mainly at the level of Director Sun.

In the office, Director Sun was drinking tea, smoking the soft pack of cigarettes that Manager Wang had just handed him, and leaning on Erlang's legs, he said, "It's not easy to sign Zhang Guan! It's easy to tell you that there are already several sports brands that contacted us, there are many other industries, so our center should also carefully consider and strictly check. This is also responsible for our athletes! "

Director Sun's voice changed and then said: "Of course, your company is the most well-known sports brand in the world, and it also has a deep friendship with our center. There must be no problem in terms of qualification."

Manager Wang nodded with a smile, but his heart was very uncomfortable. Although the sound of Director Sun's sounds sounded good, according to Manager Wang's understanding of these officials, the more said such a sounding, the more ready to play the ball. If you go on like this, you will be in vain today.

"Director Sun, our company is very sincere, and we also decided to increase the signing fee. Last time we did not talk about 300,000, this time the company has increased ten times, three million a year!" Manager Wang extended three fingers, his face deliberately showed a very exaggerated expression, as if the number of three million had shocked him.

But in fact, Manager Wang knows that the company's negotiation limit is not only three million. James tells him that if he is less than five million, he can directly agree to it, and if it is more than five million, report to him, as long as it is not too high. The problem will not be too big. But it is always good to save money for the company, so Manager Wang's skillful expression is exaggerated.

"Three million..." Director Sun smiled and then said: "As far as I know, the leadership does not recognize this number very much. Three million signing Zhang Guan must be difficult."

Director Sun said that he deliberately moved his body forward, lowering his voice and saying, "Brother Wang, I'm secretly telling you the truth, other companies have higher prices than yours!"

"Sure enough, those competitors have started!" Manager Wang thought secretly, but his face still had to show flattered gratitude.

"I don't know what the leader agrees on the price?" Manager Wang asked.

"Hehe ..." Master Sun smiled arbitrarily and pressed the cigarette butt in his hand into the ashtray, and then he stopped speaking, and the chat ended in "Hehe".

Director Sun knows that although these multinational groups are rich, all of them don't see rabbits and don't sprinkle eagles. If Mr. Wang wants to inquire about news from him, it is impossible to rely on red teeth and white teeth.

Manager Wang immediately noticed that, from Director Sun's attitude, this empty glove white wolf is unlikely. Manager Wang slowly straightened, and then took out the cigarette and handed it to Director Sun, saying: "Director Sun, let's go to the Regal Hotel tonight, I booked a place, and the boutique Buddha jumped the wall."

"Boutique Buddha jumping over the wall ..." Director Sun pondered a bit. 2666 boutique Buddha are jumping over the wall at Regal Hotel, which is close to his monthly salary. He usually listens to his name on weekdays. As for eating, it is not at all possible.

"Well, since Manager Wang is so kind as to invite me, then I won't be disrespectful!" Director Sun smiled, and then said: "I heard that the spa on the sixth floor of Regal Hotel is very good."

Manager Wang cursed a few words in his heart, but he still said: "You can rest assured, we have everything, we want everything, we are on the sixth floor after dinner!"

...

In the early morning, Manager Wang sent Director Sun into the car, and he took a breath.

After pretending to be a grandson for one night, Manager Wang has got the price of other competitors from Director Sun. What's more important is that he knows that the center's endorsement for Zhang Guan's sports brand is 5 million!

"5 million a year, which is a reasonable value in terms of Zhang Guan's achievements, but according to the standard of endorsement fees for domestic athletes, it is slightly higher, but it is also within the acceptable range." Manager Wang's face shown a triumphant smile appeared.

Nike has always maintained a good cooperative relationship with the field management center. Now he already knows the bottom price of the field management center and also knows the situation of the competitors. Then in the subsequent negotiations, the quotation can take a lot of advantages. Although it cost Manager Wang more than 10,000 yuan this night, Manager Wang believes that he can earn hundreds of times at the negotiating table.

"If you can save a little more endorsement fees, maybe you can get an extra year-end bonus at the end of the year!" Manager Wang sighed.

He is just an ordinary person. For him, working hard, being promoted, raising salary, and then bringing a better life to his family is his greatest ideal. For this reason, he can give up his dignity, and he can do some things he did not want to do.

It's just that whether it is Manager Wang or Director Sun, they don't know that Zhang Guan's agent team, the champion team has started to operate in an orderly manner.
