Niu Meiling wanted to talk to Murphy about something other than contract renewal, what else could it be?
Right now, Mo Xiaojuan watched as Niu Meiling chatted with Murphy and asked about her work after the Spring Festival. She also asked about the progress of her concert preparations. But in her heart, she was betting with herself, "When will we talk about the contract renewal?"
Murphy, on the other hand, was seriously discussing the concert arrangements with Niu Meiling. She suggested, "Sister Ling, should we add one or more concerts? For example, Jiangcheng. Last month, when we had a signing event there, the fans were still very enthusiastic. Also, Chuan Province's Tianfu. If we only have concerts in Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, it would be unfair to the fans in the other cities! "
Niu Meiling was a little embarrassed, but she was experienced and didn't let Murphy see through it. She laughed and said, "It's fine. There will always be a chance to see concerts. After you finish these three concerts, we'll have three more in the next season. The fans in the other cities can also come to Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou to watch. They can also travel to the international metropolises!"
Don't think that Niu Meiling didn't want to earn money. She wanted to earn money too much!
Many cities' concert markets were controlled by professional concert planning companies. Other than a few powerful record companies and management companies that could bypass them, other smaller companies would have to work with them if they wanted to book a concert venue in these cities!
In this way, the profit that Tian Mei could get would be greatly reduced. Not to mention that most of the income would be given to Mo Fei because of the contract. In addition, the attendance rate in these cities was relatively low, so the ticket sales and ticket prices were often not as good as those in Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou. Therefore, if Tian Mei held three concerts in these cities, they might not be able to make as much money as one concert in Shanghai!
In this way, Niu Meiling was naturally more willing to hold a few more concerts in Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou.
Mo Fei's thoughts were much simpler. She frowned and said, "But, Sister Ling, going to another city to watch a concert is also a lot of extra expenses for them!"
"Then you don't have to watch concerts for now! Which cities are you interested in? I can arrange a few more commercial performances for you. You can meet your fans and let them listen to you sing. Isn't the effect the same? "Niu Meiling laughed and said unhurriedly.
Commercial performances were great. Those brands wouldn't only pay Murphy's expenses, they would also give the management company an extra red packet. Most importantly, Niu Meiling could earn a favor in the middle.
"How can you compare commercial performances to concerts?" Murphy still felt that it wasn't right. She was actually quite disgusted by these kinds of performances.
However, at this time, Mo Xiaojuan pulled Mo Fei and signaled her not to continue arguing with Niu Meiling.
At this time, Niu Meiling finally had the chance to say her real purpose today, "Mo Fei, last year, we talked about the contract renewal, but you told Xiaojuan that we would talk about it after the album was released. Sister Ling also agreed to it. Now that your album has been released and has achieved good results, Sister Ling is also happy for you. It's just that your contract with Tianmei is less than four months away. Shouldn't we also talk about the contract renewal?"
Murphy was startled. She actually didn't want to consider renewing the contract at all, but she wasn't ready to lay her cards on the table with Niu Meiling. Now that Sister Ling suddenly mentioned it, how should he answer? Should he say it clearly?
Murphy's heart was in a mess. For a moment, she didn't know what to say. Fortunately, Mo Xiaojuan was afraid that she would say it directly, so she rushed to say to Sister Ling, "Sister Ling, now that Sister Fei has obtained such results, do you still want Sister Fei to sign an ordinary contract?"
Of course, Niu Meiling wanted Murphy to sign an ordinary contract, but now that the situation was better than her, she wouldn't be so stupid as to make such an impossible request.
She smiled, took out a contract from the table, and said, "Of course not. I have always attached great importance to an excellent singer like Murphy. Although our Tianmei is still facing a big problem, no matter how difficult it is, we can't let Murphy suffer."
"Top contract, we still want to sign a top contract with Murphy!" Niu Meiling handed the contract over and said with a smile, "However, after all, so many years have passed and the market has changed a lot. Some of the terms of our top contract have also changed a little."
Sure enough, Niu Meiling still didn't give up. Even if she signed a top contract, she still wanted to deduct some and squeeze out more profit.
Mo Xiaojuan took the contract and flipped it open. She saw the changes in the ratio of various types of activities. She looked at Niu Meiling with some deep meaning.
"Sister Ling, if you said that it was just changing the penalty, then I wouldn't say anything. But as for the revenue sharing, it seems that the company's ratio has been raised a little!" Mo Xiaojuan said to Niu Meiling with a smile.
Murphy frowned. She turned her head and whispered in Mo Xiaojuan's ear, "Why are you still talking to Sister Ling about this? Didn't you not consider renewing the contract?"
Mo Xiaojuan still had a smile on her face. She pretended to talk to Murphy about the contract, but in fact, she only said one word to Murphy: "Drag!"
Niu Meiling waited for them to finish discussing before gently explaining. She had prepared a lot of excuses. For example, last year's Ye Qing (the A-list male singer who sang "Fireworks in the Heart" and competed with Murphy's "Coming Across the Sea to See You") signed a contract with Starfire Media as a case study to explain the need for her to increase the company's profit sharing.
She said a lot of things until she was in tears. It was as if Tian Mei almost couldn't continue. Murphy had already seen through her. Wasn't this still playing the emotional card?
Murphy was silent, but Mo Xiaojuan was able to deal with it easily. She smiled and said, "Sister Ling, I understand your difficulties, but after all, renewing the contract is a big deal. There are a lot of treaties on it, so we have to talk about them properly. Now is not a good time, because in a few days, Sister Fei will be going to Beijing for her first concert. "
"How about this, we take this contract back and look at it first. If there are any details that need to be considered, we can continue to talk about it later?" Mo Xiaojuan used honorifics and respectfully discussed with Niu Meiling.
Niu Meiling still smiled gently: "Of course, the contract renewal is not something that can be discussed in a short period of time. I understand. As long as Murphy, Xiaojuan, you don't have any big opinions, we can talk about it slowly. Don't we still have four months? "
Murphy and Mo Xiaojuan left. Niu Meiling, who was still happy just now, finally stopped smiling. Her face was a little gloomy. She was clearly dissatisfied with Murphy and Mo Xiaojuan's attitude just now.
Moreover, Niu Meiling also frowned. She secretly felt that something was wrong. She always felt that Murphy's emotions were a little wrong. It was different from her previous positive attitude. Today, she seemed a little unwilling.
Could it be that she was disloyal? Niu Meiling began to suspect.
Murphy and Mo Xiaojuan, who had left her office, were also talking.
"Xiaojuan, why are you talking about the contract with Sister Ling again today? Didn't we agree that we won't renew the contract with Sister Ling? "Murphy asked in confusion.
Mo Xiaojuan said helplessly: "That will have to wait until the final showdown. We can't fall out with Tianmei now. There are still four months. I don't know what Sister Ling will do! Right now, we can only pretend to talk to her about the terms and drag it out for as long as possible! "
Murphy was silent. She felt that something was wrong. Moreover, Mo Xiaojuan dragging it out made her feel a little uneasy. However, her mind was in a mess and she didn't know what to do.
"Sis, there's another question. You didn't have to argue with Sister Ling about the concert just now!" Mo Xiaojuan suddenly remembered. She curled her lips and said to Murphy, "You also know that Sister Ling is a person who goes for the money. She won't be able to make much money holding a concert in Jiangcheng. Even if you say that the fans are pitiful, she won't be moved!"
Murphy heard this and her mood fell. She sighed and said: "I know, but I feel that those fans don't have it easy. They even went so far to watch a concert. "
"Anyway, in the future, when you and Brother-in-law work in your studio, you can earn money and spend money as you like. You will be free. At that time, you can also hold a few more concerts for your fans in other cities as compensation." Mo Xiaojuan comforted her.
"You're right. There are only four months left!" Murphy smiled and nodded happily.
