Chapter 41 Where did the face come from?

"Some people feel that it's okay. Although they have the intention to take advantage of it, they still have strength. Most of the remaining people are just those who make up for the numbers, or they are just leather bag companies, wanting to make money by themselves."

Cao Xiang said contemptly: "They just have a lucky mentality, hoping that you don't understand anything, or your IQ is not online, listen to their fools, and then make a big profit."

"You just say it's reliable." Bai Ye shrugged.

As for the unreliable, he didn't have the patience to listen and wanted to fool him... Maybe his predecessor would be fooled, but he was an old fry. If he fooled each other, no one would be fooled.

"Look at this." Cao Xiang bounced a business card over.

Bai Ye caught it and was stunned for a moment: "Art Publishing House...what is this?"

"I think this is the most reliable among the crowd."

Cao Xiang explained: "This publisher wants the copyright of your sketch group."

"copyright."

Bai Ye was stunned and confused, "What do you want copyright?"

“Issued and sold.”

Cao Xiang was a little strange and simply explained: "To put it bluntly, you need your authorization, and then you can make the sketch set into decorative paintings, or other stickers for sale."

“Eh?”

Bai Ye widened his eyes: "This requires authorization... Cough, I understand."

He immediately realized that this was not the original time and space. Pirates were prevalent, and there was no way to pursue them without asking about what they had taken. There was a perfect copyright system in this world, and there would definitely be no loopholes.

"That publishing house is also quite famous in China Overseas, with good strength, and its sales network covers several provinces in Jiangnan. The key is that they are sincere and give two solutions for you to choose from."

Cao Xiang continued: "One plan is to buy out, give you a lot of money, buy out authorization. In the future, how they want to print, produce, sell, and how much profit they have has nothing to do with you. Another plan is to share the share, you give them authorization, they are responsible for promoting and selling, and then calculate the money for you by percentage."

"The two plans have their own advantages and disadvantages."

Cao Xiang analyzed: "Buy out quickly and the money is divided into fine flow. Of course, no matter whether it is a buyout or a share, the specific amount of money is also needed to be discussed slowly."

"That's right, we must negotiate." Bai Yeshen agreed.

He suddenly thought that in the original time and space Picasso's work "The Transformation of the Cow" was a classic that was popular all over the world. He had seen this decorative painting printed in many places, including schools, libraries, hotels, and many people's residences.

This is a vast market.

In an instant, Bai Ye also made a decision: "The share must be a share, and it is a non-exclusive authorized share."

"Are you sure?"

Cao Xiang was stunned and reminded: "The price is definitely not high if it is not exclusive. Exclusive authorization basically has a share of 5% to 10%. If it is not exclusive, it is only about 1% to 5%."

“It’s not exclusive.”

Bai Ye said firmly: "I believe in the transformation process of the cow, and the sales volume of this group of works will definitely not disappoint me, and there may be huge surprises."

"Yeah?"

Cao Xiang nodded and said nothing more.

He has always been very clear about his positioning. Bai Ye has made a decision and he is responsible for helping to fight for the best interests, rather than interfering in his affairs and helping Bai Ye make the decision.

Many agents just can't figure this out, have conflicts with the artist, like to point fingers at the artist, make decisions and arrange everything by themselves, and the final result will definitely be a parting way.

"In addition to this publishing house, is there anything reliable?" Bai Yewen said.

You should know that if you buy a studio, you will definitely not have less investment. Especially since he has good requirements for the studio, various basic tools are basic things. If you want to add special utensils, you will definitely have to pay more.

In fact, many things are the same. If you just play around with it, you won’t have much investment.

But if you want to play hard and play deeply, you will eventually have to burn money.

In the original time and space, Bai Ye's wealth of hundreds of millions, of which 100 million is the value of the studio.

From this we can see how expensive this is. Although it is poor and the fun of playing rich, the happiness of rich people is unimaginable at all.

It’s hard to go from extravagant to simple.

"The others... don't say it's reliable, and it's a bit tricky to say it's unreliable."

Cao Xiang whispered: "The people who come to the door now are mostly small and medium-sized art galleries, exhibition rooms, and gallery owners in China Overseas. They want to sign contracts with you, but they don't have the ability to promote you. To put it bluntly, they just want to use your fame to take them to a higher level."

"I wishful thinking, it's a very loud fight." Bai Ye smiled.

Why do artists sign contracts for galleries, art galleries, etc., just seek fame and fortune? If galleries and art galleries cannot help artists achieve their goals, who is willing to sign contracts?

"Am I stupid in the eyes of others?"

This is Bai Ye’s question. Why do some people think that he will do the opposite of the horse?

"Um."

Cao Xiang confirmed: "Due to Boss Li's affairs, you should... not be very smart in the eyes of others."

“…”

Bai Ye suddenly had nothing to say.

The predecessor’s fault is to bear the tears.

"I have already vetoed the proposal for signing the contract for you." Cao Xiang continued: "But after vetoing, I realized that this is just a temptation. Their real purpose is mainly to cooperate with you."

"How to cooperate?" Bai Ye was a little interested.

“They are very interested in that sculpture you made at school.”

As soon as Cao Xiang said that, he was interrupted by Bai Ye.

"That's not OK. Dean Deng asked for it and was prepared to store it in the college showroom." Bai Ye explained: "This is a good thing and a kind of honor. I can't get it back."

"I know this, and they know it too."

Cao Xiang explained: "So the work they want is a different version of the sculpture. Didn't you mention it when you were in the college studio? The sculpture is best made of bronze, and the texture is the best..."

"Bang!"

Bai Ye clapped his hands and understood what these people meant.

He actually ignored this matter.

You should know that in the art industry, some artworks, especially sculptures, have many versions. It cannot be said that these versions are replicas because they are basically written by the creator himself.

For example, the sculpture of Bird in the Sky has at least seven or eight versions in the original space and time.

Each version is made by Broncusi himself, and the shapes in it are different.

After all, when artists create, they have new ideas and practice them in every time period. Therefore, many art works have similar forms and belong to a series and are very large in number.

The master is a little bit honest. There are seven or eight versions of a series of works, which is already considered too many.

However, there are also many artists who become famous by making a name for themselves after they become famous, and then they copy themselves without restraint, making dozens of versions, destroying their reputation.

Fishing in the dry pond is also one of the chaos in the art industry.

So Bai Ye thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No hurry to see this matter. Let's wait until the studio has completed the purchase and study it."

"learn."

Cao Xiang does not intend to make suggestions on this matter.

“When the studio is done…”

Bai Ye's fingertips hit the table for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Cao Xiang, how do you think you're going to recruit Chen Daqi into my studio?"

"ah?"

Cao Xiang was stunned and did not respond for a while. This was a really unexpected decision.

Bai Ye said to himself: "The bird in the sky is not small in quantity. It is a bit difficult for me to do it by myself. If an assistant helps me share the burden, it will definitely be much easier and easier."

"Chen Daqi is still a bit of strength. The main reason is that we have a good relationship and are classmates. I value loyalty so much. Now that I am well developed, there is no reason not to take care of him, right?"

“…”

Cao Xiang was silent.
