"Bathing in the morning light" killed everyone on the billboard, but the publicity work of Honor to death was always carried out in an orderly manner. There was no increase in the itinerary because of excellent album performance, but no reduction in the itinerary because of frequent publicity. Everything was done step by step according to the original plan.

The turbulent turmoil in the music market certainly made the members of Glory to death overjoyed, but objectively speaking, compared to the surging sales, the madness of the previous "Road of Glory" tour was more realistic, so the band members did not have any special feeling, nor did they feel the absurdity of their own creation of history.

Of course, more and more news reports are reported, radio program interviews are becoming more and more enthusiastic, more and more fans are waiting outside the studio, the pursuit of the publicity process is becoming more and more enthusiastic, and the flesh and skin is becoming more and more crazy... These details still make the members of the glory to death feel the changes after the release of "Bath in the Morning Light".

Not only glory until death, even Joseph felt this. Now that he was walking on the street, someone could recognize him, including Henry Bloom and Rick Rosen. This also shows that more and more people are beginning to understand Hugo in depth, and even those around Hugo are becoming familiar.

When Joseph remembered the enthusiastic fans he met in the restaurant tonight, he felt that this was really incredible. Even outsiders, he felt that if the band members appeared, they would be crowded tonight. Fortunately, the band members did not attend the banquet.

"Everything went well today?" After returning home, Joseph first came to the second floor, walked into the hall, and saw Hugo lying on the sofa at a glance, and asked.

Hugo didn't look up, holding a thick stack of paper and flipping through it, "Yeah, nothing special. Radio programs, you know."

Joseph went to the kitchen to pour a cup of coffee, then walked over and looked at the script in Hugo. Recently, Hugo would study the script he created whenever he had time. He also discussed it with Ernst three or four times. During this period, he could clearly feel that Ernst was full of vitality. It was so magical.

"Aren't you curious about dinner today?" Seeing that Hugo had no intention of speaking, Joseph could only take the initiative to mention it. Today, Glory was promoted by the radio station, but because of other things, he went to the banquet with Henry Bloom. Samora took Glory to death to participate in the recording of the radio program.

Hugo absent-mindedly pointed his chin, "Yeah, yeah..." Then he was silent for a while and found that Joseph had no sound, so he looked up at Joseph, "Oh, yeah, dinner, so, is there any new news?"

Today, Roger Fasson, deputy manager of the recording department of EDA Records, came to Los Angeles in person and invited Henry and Joseph to have dinner.

This is not surprising. After the sales volume of "Battles Morning Light" was released, some media began to care about the contract between Honor to Death and Eddie Records. People know that when Eddie Records signed the contract between Honor to Death for 5 million US dollars, the contract of five million for two albums within three years of Glory to Death was declared to the public, but it was actually one million US dollars. Now, Honor to Death has completed two records in less than a year, which means that the contract between Honor to Death and Eddie Records has lost its legal effect, and the most popular band today has restored its freedom.

In the past two weeks, Henry seems to have become a popular music agent in the circle. Major record companies have been making friends with Henry through various occasions. Although they didn't say anything, everyone knows that major record companies are now coveting record contracts that are glorious to death.

Faced with such a situation, the mood of EDA Records is really complicated.

On the one hand, Edai Records was happy. When Roger rejected the opposition and signed Glory to death, the most important thing was that Roger gave Glory to death absolute creative freedom, so the rise of new metal rock was the time for Edai Records to gain. Now, the excellent results of "almost famous" have made Edai Records overjoyed. Now, "Bathing in the Morning Light" has shown an unstoppable trend in just two weeks of release, which has made Edai Records even more happy.

But on the other hand, Eddie Records struggled again because Honor repeatedly stated until his death that the second album needed to be released later, but Eddie Records repeatedly put pressure on Henry again and again, which caused some unpleasantness between Roger and Henry. Now, the performance of "Bathing in the Morning Light" is so outstanding, Eddie Records' position is a bit embarrassing now, especially the better the subsequent sales of this album, the more difficult it is to renew Eddie Records. Therefore, they should be fast rather than slow. In this negotiation, they have lost the initiative and can only be forced to take the initiative.

It was strategic when Roger signed Glory until his death. Edai Records, who was born in the UK, needed to explore the US market, but they always lacked new forces. It was difficult for them to compete with the four major local record companies, which also made Edai Records' music market share in the US always at a disadvantage.

Therefore, EMI hopes to sign a lively and energetic rock band like Glory to death to attack the American music market.

In fact, this is a gamble. Roger used a one-million dollar contract as a bet to compete for a weak hope of less than one percent. As a result, Roger won the bet.

If it was just a gamble at the beginning, then the strategic significance of Glory to death for Eidai Records has now risen to a decisive and critical position. Even if they lose the initiative, they must take the lead. There is no room for hesitation and no room for hesitation.

So Roger appeared in Los Angeles himself.

Joseph didn't keep it a secret, and simply said, "Three records cost 20 million US dollars, five years."

Hugo's eyes widened unexpectedly, pursed his lips and kept lit his chin, saying meaningfully, "Shock..." Joseph shrugged and expressed his fright, but Hugo then said, "I thought Roger was just polite with you today, and he would not negotiate the terms until the next meeting. You know, he and Henry had a very pleasant quarrel before."

Generally speaking, such social occasions require a false conspiracy. Roger and Henry quarreled several times before for the album "Bath in the Morning Light". Henry rarely mentioned it with band members, but Hugo knew at least three times. So according to common sense, Roger should first repair his relationship with Henry, and then file a deal, so that the chance of success will be greater.

But today, Roger couldn't wait to take the lead in proposing it first. This seemed too urgent and was unfavorable for negotiations. This was equivalent to showing off his trump card early, and all the initiative was up to Henry's statement. That's why Hugo was so surprised.

Joseph thought Hugo was an unexpected price, but it turned out not. He was stunned for a moment and then laughed, "Henry found out that you still got the Golden Records this week." This week is the third week of "Battle of Morning Light" release. Before receiving Roger's invitation, Henry went to find out the news and got an answer. This week, "Battle of Morning Light" sales are still at the 500,000 level, and the sales volume exceeds 500,000 for three consecutive weeks. It is no wonder that EDA Records can't sit still in such a feat.

As long as "bathing in the morning light" continues to set records, EMI Records will only become more and more unfavorable, so instead of struggling, it is better to show your weakness and show your trump card first, and instead show your sincerity. What's more, the cooperation between EMI Records and the two albums before Glory to death was quite pleasant, especially because they never intervened in the creation style of Glory to death, which is something that several other large record companies absolutely cannot do.

"Golden Records? Are you serious?" Hugo raised his eyebrows in surprise. When he achieved great sales results in "almost famous", Hugo thought he was surprised enough, but the market feedback he received this time "bathing in the morning light" still surprised him repeatedly, which was really incredible.

"The point of your surprise seems to be wrong." Joseph looked at the expression on Hugo's face and smiled helplessly. Then, seeing the doubts on Hugo's face, Joseph had to speak again, "Three records? Twenty million?"

"Oh...yes!" Hugo remembered this incident, and then he realized his reaction, his eyes widened, "Are you serious? Three records 20 million? Is Roger crazy?"

Compared with the praise and pursuit of all media, and the madness and enthusiasm of countless fans, the new contract conditions of Eidai Records are the most direct and vivid proof of the rise of Glory to death, because record companies are profit-oriented and can make them offer such a price, and they know that they believe that Glory to death can bring corresponding profits to the company, so they are willing to be so generous. More importantly, this is only Roger's first negotiation, and it can be seen that there is still room for growth in the future, which is really scary.

Seeing Hugo's reaction that was three beats slow, Joseph couldn't help but smile and nodded in affirmation, "Henry and I both think that we don't need to worry for the time being. Roger is far from showing off his real trump card."

Hugo opened his mouth wide and did not respond, as if he was still digesting the shock brought by this contract. After a while, he said, "I remember our first contract was one million two records? How many times has it been?"

In just one year, the record contract of Honor to Death soared from one million records to 20 million records, more than thirteen times. No wonder countless media have compared Honor to Death to the Nirvana Band. From this contract, we can see the storm that Honor to the Death has brought to the entire music market today.

From being unknown to the top in the United States, it took thirteen months to reach the death of Honor; from being thoughtful to being impatient, Eddie Records took nine months. In a blink of an eye, the offensive and defensive positions of Honor to Death and Eddie Records changed, because Eddie Records believed that renewing the contract to Glory to Death can enable them to complete the offensive and defensive changes in the position of the American market!

However, this negotiation doesn't seem that simple.
Chapter completed!
