    ??

    "Is it so straightforward this time?"

    Stefanie Li was slightly stunned because she was already prepared for Xia Fan's rejection. After all, this guy often doesn't take the usual path.

    "The other party paid a lot of money, and I don't want you to endorse those luxury goods. It's just like selling the goods. I don't have any pressure." Xia Fan sipped the tea and said with a smile.

    ????????????? Whether it was what he was saying is unknown.

    The contract given to Xia Fan by Coca-Cola is a two-year contract. As long as no devastating scandal occurs during the contract period and he does not endorse other sports drinks, he can get a one-year contract worth 8 million Chinese dollars.

    Those drinks such as juice and coconut water are not competitive products.

    In this time and space, the exchange rate between Chinese coins and U.S. dollars is around 1:2. 8 million Huaxia coins is almost 4 million U.S. dollars, which is considered a very valuable contract on a global scale.

    "Coca-Cola's spokespersons are indeed watched by many top celebrities, but in fact those people have no conflict with you. They play the role of partners and appear in the promotion in stages. You are different. Through the Spring Festival Gala stage  There are also TV series, and of course with the bonus of you being a singer, Coca-Cola hopes to cooperate with you for a long time."

    "The words all imply that Xia Fan is fundamentally different from those traffic stars.

    "One more thing, the sales volume of your last mini-album was very impressive. If averaged to each song, your single sales were among the best among all albums last year. The company would like to ask if you will continue to release new albums this year.  What¡¯s the idea of ??an album? Even if it¡¯s a mini-album, that¡¯s fine.¡±

    "Ah this"

    Xia Fan was stunned for a while and could only respond with a wry smile.

    The original plan was that this mini-album, like "In the Name of the People", would be a swan song.

    As a result, Xia Fan found that combining the three songs into a mini album for sale seemed to be a pretty good choice.

    If it is a regular album with a total of ten songs, the total album price will be calculated based on the standard of ten songs.  As a result, in addition to those die-hard fans, even casual fans will stay away.

    But if there are three songs in one album, the fans may move away.  This group is very large. Even if there are more people who are undecided, it will be a large number.

    What¡¯s more, from Xia Fan¡¯s point of view, it seems a little weird for a singer to only release one mini-album in his life, even though this is a relatively special Internet era.

    ¡°I¡¯ll think about it, but right now I still have to prepare the movie.¡±

    Xia Fan waved his hand and did not reply on the spot.

    Immediately afterwards, he discussed the shooting time of the "Coca-Cola" commercial with Stefanie Lai. Because Xia Fan was too busy during this period, he had to temporarily postpone the time by one month and set it in May.

    "Xiaoxia, Penguin Music has raised the price to 70 million. What do you think?"

    Zhou Yongsheng, a senior executive of Times Entertainment, sent another probing message.

    According to rumors, this guy has a good personal relationship with Ma Xiaodong, the president of Penguin Music, so you can understand why this guy is so active.

    "Mr. Zhou, I'll think about it again here. You also tell Mr. Ma that I personally think it will be easier to remember the time. Finally, we will start counting from January 1 next year to December 31, which is exactly the same cycle."  Xia Fan replied with his thoughts.

    "Okay, I will answer your opinion." Zhou Yongsheng replied.

    After Xia Fan put away his phone, he slowly fell into deep thought.

    According to previous assumptions, when he is 25 years old, when his position in the Chinese music scene is stable and the number of fans is fixed, he can indeed try to sell the exclusive music copyright.

    But he also had a little hesitation, because according to Penguin Music¡¯s past behavior, as long as the buyout is completed, the next step will be to start charging.

    Online listening is one price; downloading is another price.

    Then various green members, red members, and other members of various colors will be launched, covering almost seven colors in the rainbow.

    But Xia Fan is too lazy to care whether there are seven or seventy-two colors for Penguin Music members. He only cares about whether this situation will seriously affect the popularity of his songs.

    After all, it¡¯s hard to have both your cake and eat it too!

    ¡°After all, I¡¯m not the kind of popular singer. I¡¯ll be done with just cutting off my fans, so I don¡¯t have the time to think about the spread of the song.

    There are so many new faces in the entertainment industry, and the pressure of competition has become extremely terrifying, especially in this Internet era, popular app software such as Douyin and Bilibili, there are often various explosive songs.

    These are all free and easy to spread among netizens.

    Xia Fan has no idea how much the popularity and listening rates of his paid songs will drop in a few years.

    ¡°He is still incomparable to Jay Chou in his previous life.

    When Jay Chou became popular, it was a transitional stage between the recording era and the Internet era, and it took him 20 years to become famous, completely collapsing the Chinese music scene, and popular singers taking over. As a result, his works have become an epoch-making classic icon, and have always been popular.  .

    25-year-old Xia Fan and 40-year-old Jay Chou have completely different issues to consider, so the latter can choose the higher price between QQ Music and NetEase Cloud Music.

    But Xia Fan can't just consider this point.

    A few days later, Zhou Yongsheng responded: Penguin Music agreed to start counting from January 1 next year, but they had to initial an agreement.

    Xia Fan gave a decisive reply:

    The contract was temporarily signed for one year, and he also promised to release another mini album this year, plus two singles, for a total of 5 songs.  However, the exclusive copyright of songs enjoyed by Penguin Music can only be limited to songs released before January 1 next year. Songs released after January 1 next year will still adopt the strategy of simultaneous release on dual platforms.

    "this¡­¡­"

    Zhou Yongsheng frowned and forwarded this opinion to Ma Xiaodong a few minutes later.

    He asked Xia Fan: Can you reveal your number to Mr. Ma?

    Xia Fan also replied simply: Yes.

    A few minutes later, Xia Fan received a call from Penguin Music President Ma Xiaodong.  He walked to a corner and had a heart-to-heart talk with "Little Ma".

    Another hour passed, Xia Fan breathed a sigh of relief and slowly put down the phone.

    Although the two had some disputes, the specific conditions were finally agreed upon.

    Perhaps because of the fact that Huaxia Music was watching eagerly from the sidelines, Ma Xiaodong finally made a concession, and Xia Fan also gave up as soon as he could.

    "The contract is still for one year, and the price remains unchanged. However, if Xia Fan fails to renew the contract with Penguin Music, they will get a three-month buffer period and can continue to play Xia Fan's songs."

    "As for the new singles released between January 1 and December 31 next year, Penguin Music can go online three days in advance, and it is China Music's turn to go online three days later. As for the charging model, it is up to the two platforms to decide."

    Xia Fan¡¯s principle, in short, must not be hung on the penguin tree, even if you give a lot of money (remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
