Chapter 136 Copyright Fees
The day after returning to Yanjing, Zhang Chen made an appointment with Lin Yunxi to meet him.
Nowadays, Lin Yunxi is really famous from online to offline. The name of "Angel Sister with Broken Wings" is well known to everyone. Therefore, when she goes out now, she almost has to be fully armed.
From this point of view, her degree of freedom is even far less than before, but she is still very happy.
After all, these are all the troubles of happiness. Those who are not popular do not get such treatment.
Moreover, in the few days since Zhang Chen returned to his hometown, she had actually signed a contract with "Tianxing Agency" equivalent to that of a second-tier artist. Now, the first contract funding has been received, and the total amount is
The price is as high as three million yuan.
"Brother Zhang, after so long, I can finally pay your medical expenses!"
Lin Yunxi took out a bank card, gently pushed it to Zhang Chen, and said with emotion.
Looking back on that day, if she hadn't gone to Zhang Chen's clinic to see a doctor because she had a bad cold, she probably wouldn't be "reborn from the ashes" today.
This can really be regarded as the most significant turning point in her life!
Therefore, the gratitude she felt towards Zhang Chen in her heart was really beyond words.
She only knows that without Zhang Chen's help, she might still be the poor mute who works hard every day to pay off her debts to this day. How could she have signed a new brokerage contract with another brokerage company like she is today?
"There's no need to be in such a hurry."
If Lin Yunxi hadn't said anything, Zhang Chen would have almost forgotten that she still owed him medical fees.
Looking back on that day, the main reason why he helped Lin Yunxi and even allowed her to sing his own "original" songs on the stage of "Voice of China" was because he wanted to help Lin Yunxi return to the entertainment industry as soon as possible.
Will he be able to repay the "treatment fee" owed to him earlier?
I just didn't expect that this group of people helped me for a whole few months. Looking back now, it feels like a lifetime ago.
"Hehe, Brother Zhang, are you really not in a hurry? There are also copyright fees for the eleven songs I paid you. If you are not in a hurry, I will take it back first!"
Lin Yunxi knew Zhang Chen's character and deliberately teased him.
Zhang Chen: "..."
It is impossible to take it back. After all, he is really short of money now.
He now wants to buy his own small house in Yanjing, a place where land is so expensive, so that his precious daughter can attend a nearby public kindergarten. Every penny he spends now is valuable to him.
Extremely precious.
In fact, if it was just the medical expenses of several thousand dollars, he would not be in a hurry. However, when the copyright fees for the songs were added, it would be different.
Because he had heard Lin Yunxi mention it a long time ago. The copyright fees for good songs in the industry are really high now. Each song is worth at least tens of thousands. Now more than ten songs are enough to record a song.
He has a brand new album, and it must be worth more than one million. With such a large amount of money, he just can't think of it.
"Two...two million and four hundred thousand?"
As a result, what Zhang Chen didn't expect was that Lin Yunxi was more "generous" than he imagined.
Because, when he went to the bank teller machine afterwards to check the balance in his bank card, he discovered that there was actually more than 2.4 million in cash in it.
However, in the new agency contract signed by Lin Yunxi and "Tianxing Agency", the first signing bonus seems to be only three million, right? As a result, she actually transferred more than 80% of the signing bonus?
Zhang Chen was really surprised when he saw this. At the same time, he was also very pleased! He was pleased that he did not help the wrong person.
Although before helping Lin Yunxi, he had never really thought about getting anything in return, but now he feels very relieved to see that Lin Yunxi knows how to "repay kindness".
Then, he recalled that when he was talking to Lin Yunxi just now, he talked about whether he should sign with "Tianxing Agency". He thought that maybe he should wait a little longer and let himself think more before making a decision.
.
Because, although the signing conditions issued by "Tianxing Brokerage Company" are indeed relatively kind.
For example, the first signing fund was as high as five million, but he was required to sign a five-year contract at one time. This was indeed too long for Zhang Chen.
In addition, the contract also clearly stipulates that the copyright of all works during the contract period should be shared by both parties. If Zhang Chen wants to transfer the work to the other party, he must at least obtain the company's consent.
This is too difficult for Zhang Chen to accept!
He did not want to accept such a restriction. Although "Tianxing Agency" said that the entire industry had such regulations for original authors. However, Zhang Chen still felt that it was unreasonable. Regardless of his own works,
No matter who you want to transfer it to, at least he must have all the decision-making rights. This is true complete freedom, right?
Otherwise, how can we not interfere with personal freedom? This is simply impossible, okay?
After transferring the more than 2.4 million in cash to his commonly used bank card, Zhang Chen discovered that his current deposits had returned to nearly 3 million. This money is really worth mentioning.
It's quite a lot, but it still may not be enough to pay the 30% down payment for a small two-bedroom apartment of 80 square meters in Yanjing, let alone the full payment.
In particular, Zhang Chen originally planned to donate half of all the money he earned from using the two vests "z.d.g" and "dr.z". After this calculation, his
This deposit of more than three million yuan is simply not enough.
Fortunately, at this time, a piece of news came from Gao Fushuai and Gao Yuan, which made Zhang Chen very happy to hear it. That was, the first product produced by the new pharmaceutical company they jointly established was that
A magical "acne removal ointment" has finally passed clinical trials and will be on sale soon.
"Dad! Xinxin is here again!"
At the same time, a few days later, Zhang Chen welcomed his baby daughter, Xiao Xinyue.
This time, Su Mi said it directly. She should be very busy in the next month or so. After all, the release of the new album will start soon. Therefore, in the next time, Xiao Xinyue will only
Chapter completed!
