Chapter 320 Olive Branch
At night, the "Singer" program team found a room in the hotel designated.
The two cool dragon legends who had just been eliminated took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
The door was opened quickly. Ye Zhiqiu, still wearing the black shirt from the performance, smiled and said: "Brother Yi, Sister Hua, please come in."
Zhuang Yi and Linghua walked into the room full of questions.
The bedding in the room is neat and there are no personal belongings placed in conspicuous places.
The program team is very luxurious and all the contestants are given suite-level hotel rooms with sofas, coffee tables, etc. for chatting.
As soon as the three of them sat down, Zhuang Yi couldn't help but wonder: "Zhiqiu, why did you call us over..."
Ye Zhiqiu smiled and poured tea for the two of them, and they quickly took it.
"Brother Yi, Sister Hua, I saw on the Internet that your contract with Perfect Entertainment is about to expire."
Before the two of them could speak, Ye Zhiqiu said bluntly: "I want to sign you."
After the words fell, Zhuang Yi and Linghua were both stunned.
When Ye Zhiqiu sent a WeChat message and invited the two of them to talk, they thought about many possible reasons.
But I really didn’t guess it was this.
Zhuang Yi asked doubtfully: "Huahai Entertainment?"
"No." Ye Zhiqiu smiled, "The 'Yiye Zhiqiu' studio is under my personal name."
"But we have a very close relationship with Huahai Entertainment."
After the words fell, Zhuang Yi and Linghua looked at each other, a look of shock flashed in their eyes.
Ye Zhiqiu wants to be his own boss!
"I would like to ask." Ye Zhiqiu asked curiously: "Can you tell me what type of contract you have now?"
There is nothing that cannot be said. Both of them know that their contracts are definitely not comparable to Ye Zhiqiu's.
When Zhuang Yi said it, Ye Zhiqiu was stunned for a moment.
Cool Dragon Legend, the one currently signed is only a B-level contract!
In fact, it was Ye Zhiqiu who took it for granted. He had good connections with Huahai Entertainment and had a very comfortable life. However, the contracts of many artists in the entertainment industry can be described as harsh.
Without absolute bargaining power, the relationship between artists and entertainment companies has never been an equal one.
Resources are in the hands of the employer, and entertainment companies can support whomever they want. Under normal circumstances, artists are just tools to make money.
Cool Dragon Legend has been in business for nearly ten years, and it can’t be said that it was very successful even after getting a B-level contract, but it can still be considered as an upper-middle level.
Ye Zhiqiu didn't waste any time and said directly: "Brother Yi, Sister Hua, my conditions are very simple."
"Come to me, A-level contract."
The moment they heard "a", Zhuang Yi and Linghua's eyes widened suddenly, but they quickly calmed down.
"Um, Zhiqiu..." Linghua said hesitantly: "In addition to you, who else has your studio signed?"
"No more." Ye Zhiqiu said, "You are the first."
"Oh, by the way, there is also an animation studio."
Zhuang Yi, Linghua: "..."
Why does this sound so unreliable?
Although the "A" level contract is tempting, it also depends on who you sign it with!
In fact, the biggest difference between different levels of contracts lies in the proportion of sharing.
For example, an "A"-level contract from a weak small company may not be as good as a "C"-level contract from a large company.
Because the platforms are different, the resources available to artists are also different.
Their current employer, "Perfect Entertainment", is one of the top companies in the industry, and Ye Zhiqiu's personal studio...
To be honest, although he is now backed by the equally powerful Huahai Entertainment, who knows what his relationship with Huahai Entertainment is like.
There is no telling whether Ye Zhiqiu will break up with Huahai Entertainment in the future.
At that time, without the support of Huahai Entertainment, life may not be easy...
But these are just assumptions. In any case, the conditions proposed by Ye Zhiqiu, who is now at the peak of his popularity, are still very tempting.
A trace of hesitation flashed across the faces of Zhuang Yi and Linghua.
"Also." Ye Zhiqiu added with a smile, "There is another benefit to entering the 'Yiye Zhiqiu' studio."
"I will write your songs."
After saying these words, both Zhuang Yi and Linghua were shocked.
If you want to say who is the most expensive person to hire to write songs in the music industry right now, it must be this young man in front of you.
It has its own "Chinese style", a song "East Wind Breaks" and "Blue and White Porcelain". Recently, Ye Zhiqiu has become extremely red.
If the songs I write for my own group... don't have to be as exaggerated as a pioneering song like "Dongfeng Po", I'll be satisfied if it's half-successful.
Zhuang Yi and Linghua looked at each other, their hearts moved!
For a moment, the two of them almost blurted out the word "good", but they managed to endure it.
Happiness came so suddenly that the two of them couldn't believe it.
After a moment of silence, Zhuang Yi asked in a dry voice: "Can you tell me why?"
"This condition...is great."
"There is no reason." Ye Zhiqiu said with a relaxed expression: "If I say that I simply believe in my own vision, would you believe it?"
At this point, Ye Zhiqiu became interested and said excitedly: "Brother Yi, Sister Hua, I have almost figured out your plans after signing the contract."
"First, change the name of the group."
Change name?
Zhuang Yi and Linghua were stunned, why did they feel so unable to keep up with Ye Zhiqiu's ideas?
"Change it to what?" Linghua asked stupidly.
"Phoenix Legend!"
Ye Zhiqiu's voice was decisive.
Zhuang Yi and Linghua looked at each other in shock. They thought Ye Zhiqiu was joking before, but they didn't expect it to be serious!
The original name of the group was "Cool Dragon", although changing it to "Phoenix" would be good, but...
Although he is not a superstar, the title of "Legend of Cool Dragon" has become a bit of a reputation over the years.
It’s such a pity that I changed my stage name only after nearly ten years since my debut.
Ye Zhiqiu continued, "If I write a song for you, the style will also change."
"The main song will be replaced by Sister Linghua as the lead singer, and Brother Yi will play a supporting role. There will be fewer lyrics."
"But Brother Yi, your role is the most important. I guarantee that there will be effects you didn't expect."
Zhuang Yi: "..."
This was the second time Ye Zhiqiu said this. He thought Ye Zhiqiu was joking before, but he didn't expect that he was actually serious.
Although he had no objection to playing support, Ye Zhiqiu's thoughts were jumping too fast and he still couldn't digest it all at once.
"Zhiqiu, thank you for your offer."
"But... can we think about it?" Zhuang Yi quickly added: "I will get back to you as soon as possible in the next few days."
"No problem." Ye Zhiqiu said with a smile.
“Looking forward to working together.”
Zhuang Yi and Linghua came out of Ye Zhiqiu's room, still feeling confused.
Their rooms were on another floor. The two of them walked towards the elevator, not noticing the two beautiful figures looking at them in surprise from the other side of the corridor.
"That was... the Legend of Cool Dragon just now?"
"It seems like, I remember that is Ye Zhiqiu's room, right?"
After two episodes of the program, Lu Ya and Cheng Ruojun have become good friends, and they are planning to go for a drink.
Unexpectedly, I saw the scene of the two of them coming out of Ye Zhiqiu's room.
