After Zhou Yongsheng said this, he hung up the phone.
Toot toot~
It turns out that Stefanie Lai had a bit of a game mentality when she talked to Zhou Yongsheng, because in his opinion, the contract did have loopholes, and Xia Fan seemed to have no problem with using a mini album to deal with it.
As a veteran manager, having managed so many artists under his management, he is very familiar with all kinds of contracts in the entertainment industry.
When Zhou Yongsheng hung up the phone, Stefanie Li quietly raised her head and looked at Xia Fan, with a bit of embarrassment on her face.
Xia Fan is one of the few A-signed artists in Times Entertainment, and he is also the most profitable under the company.
Just because of this simple contract clause, you have to consult a lawyer?
Do you still want to talk about your feelings, do you want to save some face?
Xia Fan could read the agent¡¯s true inner thoughts from his face.
¡°Business is business, there¡¯s nothing wrong with it!¡±
He shrugged and then grinned, as if he didn't care about Zhou Yongsheng's actions at all.
"This kid is actually quite scheming"
Stefanie Li commented quietly in her heart that she was sure that Xia Fan must be very unhappy at this moment.
But this time, he guessed wrong.
Xia Fan's state of mind at this moment is as calm as water.
Zhou Yongsheng's behavior of hanging up the phone and consulting a lawyer did not cause even the slightest disturbance in Xia Fan's heart.
"I am a worker, and the other party is a capitalist. We are naturally opposed to each other. He doesn't think that because he signed the contract as A, the other party will give him preferential treatment.
About five minutes later, Zhou Yongsheng called.
Stefanie Li hesitated for a while and pressed the hands-free button again.
She was worried that the other party would say something embarrassing to both herself and Xia Fan later, but she dug this hole herself, so she had no choice but to jump out of it.
"Stefanie, I consulted a lawyer. The other party said that from the perspective of the contract, Xia Fan seems to have no problem with using a mini album to deal with it."
The mini album is really an album!
¡°When we signed the contract, we were negligent and did not indicate whether there would be ten songs or three songs in an album!¡± Zhou Yongsheng¡¯s tone was full of regret.
"That's you, not us!"
Stefanie Li curled her lips and added silently in her heart.
"After all, in our era of entertainment, we have never paid much attention to the music business, so it is normal for something like this to happen!"
Mainly, no one could have imagined that Xia Fan could become famous so quickly in the past three years, and even independently created several hit singles that were widely circulated.
After all, it costs money to produce music albums. If Times Entertainment had the foresight, it would even agree in the contract to release a regular album containing ten songs every year.
"However, Xia Fan must pay more attention to these three songs and produce high-quality works!" Zhou Yongsheng's tone suddenly became heavier, seeming to contain some dissatisfaction, "Penguin Music was doing well"
He suddenly mentioned Penguin Music and stopped suddenly, unwilling to go into details.
"The company is very grateful to Xiao Xia for her contribution in the past few years. Whether it is music or film and television, she has made a lot of money for Our Times Entertainment. Xia Fan is the mainstay of Our Times Entertainment!"
After hanging up the phone, Stefanie Li looked at Xia Fan in surprise and asked, "Did he realize that I was on speakerphone?"
Xia Fan curled his lips and said only a few words: "He is indeed an old fox."
The guy originally wanted to vent his bitterness to Stefanie Li, detailing Xia Fan's faults, but when the words came to his lips, he temporarily changed his mind and instead praised Xia Fan.
"Maybe because I am your agent, Zhou Yongsheng is quite cautious this time."
Xia Fan nodded and replied with a smile: "As I guessed, the leader is already dissatisfied with me. Although I made a lot of money for the company, I rejected Penguin Music's buyout request and turned down 95% of it. The company can actually make more money through the above commercial performances."
Today, he is one of the few artists under Times Entertainment who has few restrictions from the company.
???????? Other similar artists, their contracts are almost about to expire.
¡°For example, Chen Shicheng, an old man, blatantly went around attracting investment when there was only one year left in the contract, eager to tell the world that I would not renew the contract and would set up my own company.
Because the time left on the contract is too short.??, plus Chen Shicheng is also a senior employee, Times Entertainment can only turn a blind eye.
Xia Fan is the only one who has 5 years left on his contract.
"Well, Xiaoxia, back to the topic, since you decided to release a mini album in accordance with the contract, you have to prepare these three songs. When will the results be available?"
Stefanie Li breathed a sigh of relief, stared at him and asked.
She seemed to want to capture some information from Xia Fan's eyes, such as whether this guy still had stock, or whether he should continue to practice Tai Chi.
"What a coincidence, I happen to have three songs in stock, and I was planning to release them one by one next year. Now there are special circumstances, so I have to release them in advance!" Xia Fan spread his hands helplessly, with regret on his face.
¡°I thought about it day and night, and worked hard to write out three songs. I have almost run out of inspiration. It seems"
He deliberately drawled a long note and pretended to be pitiful: "I really don't have the life to save some songs. Once I save some songs, various emergencies will happen and I have to take them out."
"Sister Stefanie, I can give it to the company next week."
"Okay, then I'll reply to the company."
Stefanie Li glanced at Xia Fan complicatedly, then stood up and left.
When she turned around, a strange smile appeared on her lips.
"Little brother, here we go again. The inventory of exactly three songs must be ridiculous again."
Every time Xia Fan took out a song, he would complain that it was his last song and that he had no creative inspiration for the time being.
Then, Stefanie Lai guessed that even if the album had ten songs, Xia Fan would be able to sing them out in one go.
After she left, Xia Fan was once again alone in the office.
At this moment, Xia Fan's expression changed in vain, from the original expression of bitterness and helplessness to one that was calm and calm.
"Isn't it just three songs? I can also take out ten songs right away."
As before, Xia Fan opened his notebook, entered the password "hyytljr" from somewhere in the corner, and opened the document.
"Which three songs are better?"
He felt that it was a pity not to have a music album in his acting career, so he would use a mini album to deal with it.
"In an album, it is not a good sign if the first song is a banger, as it can easily lead to involution."
Thinking about Jay Chou in his previous life, the first three albums had too many songs, so a few songs with very good quality were left in the dust.
