Capítulo 26: Overkill
Yuan Datong could understand Zhang Xiaohua not wanting to cooperate with New Century as he himself wouldn't be able to cooperate with the enemy himself.
But when did Rock Records offend this kid?
Such a big company, that others could only dream of working with, actually sent a representative to their own small company to talk about business and with such favorable conditions as well. What reason was there to refuse?
However, other's dream situation was rejected by this kid without the slightest hesitation without even consulting with them. This kid really was mentally deranged!
The representative of Rock Record hadn't yet left. Yuan Datong hurried to Zhang Xiaohua side and whispered, "These people have agreed to divide the profit into a ratio of four to six with us. They are a big company with perfect equipment and marketing power. For now on, we will need to find people to be responsible for many things; for example, propaganda and distribution have to be handled by other companies as we can't afford to do it. What are you dissatisfied with?"
Zhang Xiaohua had the mind to explain, but no words available.
In Zhang Xiaohua's view, the album was valued highly as he knew how popular the songs had been on Earth, so he could imagine that it was bound to destroy many records here. However, he couldn't explain that to Datong now, could he? He wouldn't understand his logic and basis.
If so, why waste saliva?
"Believe me, I don't plan on losing out on money." Zhang Xiaohua replied in a nutshell. There were still three companies to talk to, and he didn't want to waste time. He then looked at Emma once again and urged, "Hurry up and send him out."
Emma looked at Yuan Datong for confirmation. Yuan Datong looked at Zhang Xiaohua, hoping to convince him to reconsider, but seeing the determined expression that he was showing, Yuan Datong felt very helpless as he nodded to Emma. Instructing her to follow Zhang Xiaohua's orders.
Why did they have to go and make this kid the boss?
Emma unwillingly came forward in front of the company's representative, politely requesting the other side and apologetically saying, "I'm sorry everyone, please this way."
"Boss Zhang, what are you asking for? We can discuss this. You can't just end it like this... Just tell me what you want, and I'll go back and explain it to the leaders!" The representative of Rock Records was anxious, but the representatives of Huasheng and Universal behind him were laughing with joy at his misfortune.
Zhang Xiaohua kept silent because he knew that the conditions he wanted would not be agreed upon by Rock Records, and continuing to talk would just be a waste of time.
"I'm sorry, I have other guests here, so I can't talk right now." Zhang Xiaohua said to the representative of the Rock Company and waved him towards the door. Leaving no room for further negotiations.
"Oh!" The representative of the Rockery Company reluctantly sighed and turned for the doors. If he continued to stay any longer, it would just be asking for humiliation which the other two companies representatives would love nothing more than to watch.
At the time, when the person of Rock Records just stepped out of the studio, the representative of Huasheng astutely stepped forward...
The representative of Huasheng Company started speaking right off the bat: "Boss Zhang, I am Manager Xiaoma, but you can just call me Ma. I am a business manager for Huasheng Record Company. Our company has a long history. At present, the records we sold have already exceeded 200 Billion; moreover, our connections and facilities are also perfect. Therefore, I think we will have no problems in cooperation. We can also learn from each other and take care of each other. I believe that we will cooperate very happily!"
Zhang Xiaohua smiled disapprovingly. He was indifferent to Mr. Ma's polite conversation.
With personal interests at risk, politeness wouldn't earn him any points.
"I have heard of your company's reputation. Well, you do have enough strength, but I still want to look at your company's contract first. If I am satisfied, I will accept your company's kindness." he said politely.
With a lesson from his past, the manager wouldn't be stupid enough to take out the old contract.
He just proposed the improved version that he had quickly discussed on the phone with leaders from the headquarters, saying: "Yes, if your company is interested in cooperating with Huasheng, our company will not only help Miss Wang Jingwen to record, but also help Ms. Wang Jingwen in doing various promotional activities, or even regularly hold concerts and signings for Miss Wang Jingwen. Our company has a huge sales network that spreads across the country, and also overseas, especially overseas. We will create the opportunity to sell Miss Wang Jingwen's works overseas if there is a chance, making her an international star."
After listening to this, Wang Jingwen was quite happy.
To become an international star, this was her lifelong dream. Now, her dream was within her reach, so she was extremely excited!
"Boss..."
"Shut up!"
Wang Jingwen found it hard to resist the temptation. Under the circumstances, she naturally wanted to try and persuade Zhang Xiaohua to sign a contract with Huasheng. However, when she opened her mouth, she was angrily interrupted by Zhang Xiaohua.
This was a high-level negotiation. When would there be a turn for a small employee to intervene?
In the eyes of Zhang Xiaohua, Wang Jingwen was just a small staff, no more no less, because Zhang Xiaohua could create a superstar anytime and anywhere. Even losing ten Wang Jingwens wouldn't cause any loss, in fact, it might even be a slight gain as they would receive millions from that termination fee.
It could be seen how insignificant Wang Jingwen was in Zhang Xiaohua's heart.
However, Wang Jingwen didn't think in the same way. In her opinion, she was the most important person in this company after Zhang Xiaohua. After all, she had been promoted to the position of a first-line singer with support from a large number of fans, and could potentially bring in millions of yuan. She believed that even if she quit, someone would rush to pay the penalty.
However, before Zhang Xiaohua released the remaining five songs, she had to endure. If Zhang Xiaohua was annoyed before this, he could ban her at any time, not mentioning just refusing her the rest of the songs, he could freeze her career for five years using that 'slave' contract.
In despondency, Wang Jingwen had no choice but to cover her mouth after receiving a dark look from Zhang Xiaohua. His anger was clear.
Temporarily ignoring the existence of Wang Jingwen, a smile reappeared on his face. He asked, "Your company has created such excellent conditions. Then, what is your company's request from us?"
When Zhang Xiaohua said this, Manager Ma faintly saw a glimmer of hope and rushed to hit the railway: "We only need your company to provide all of Miss Wang Jingwen's songs. As for releasing albums, shooting music videos, and things like promotion and sales, our company will assume responsibility."
"Oh, wow... such a good thing can actually exist!" Zhang Xiaohua could not help but smile at Yuan Datong, but Yuan Datong had a sulky face. He didn't bother replying to him. Only God knew what idiotic thing this guy would do next. Therefore, before this kid officially signed a contract with the other party, he really didn't trust him!
Seeing that Datong ignored him, Zhang Xiaohua faced manager Ma, and he smiled. He asked the manager, earnestly, "So, what is the sharing of profits between the two parties?"
"I don't think anything about it. Just now, I've called the company's top management for advice, and I've strongly recommended your company's work to the company's top executives. As a result, our company's top management also very much appreciative of your company and Mr. Zhang. We believe that we can achieve long-term cooperation. As for the interests, our company has proposed a ratio of five to five so 50% each. What do you say?"
"Wow!"
When Manager Ma spoke of this, Emma's and they rest were directly shocked.
"20% !" Zhang Xiaohua directly countered.
Suddenly, all the people remaining received a violent blow.
Manager Ma did not respond for a long time. "I do not know what this 20% means?"
If it was divided into proportions, then it would be understandable for Huasheng to account for 80% of the profits made. But if they were to receive less than 50%, it would be impossible. Even if he agreed, the company's top management would not agree.
"All the profit made, we will take 80%; your Huasheng will receive the remaining 20%. If your company agrees, we can sign immediately. If your company does not agree..." Here, Zhang Xiaohua looked to Emma. The meaning very obvious. He would get Emma to send him out.
Emma and Yuan Datong really cried this time. The conditions for the other person were better than the previous offer. But the big boss seemed to be deliberately making things difficult for others.
"Zhang boss, this... this isn't fair, it won't work!?" Manager Ma was almost tearful, if not for being afraid of angering Zhang Xiaohua, he would have sworn out loud.
"Then, isn't there nothing else to talk about?" Zhang Xiaohua stretched in his chair. He said directly to Emma, "Emma, help me lead this guest out as well!"
Emma rolled her eyes and suddenly turned her face, completely ignoring Zhang Xiaohua.
Seeing that he had almost caused public outcry, Zhang Xiaohua smiled. He felt as if everyone was drunk, and he was the only one sober. They didn't seem to completely comprehend the value of the album, and the effect it would have.
From everyone's response, Zhang Xiaohua understood that his counterclaim was a little overkill, but he believed they would understand his intentions soon enough.
"Since Mr. Zhang is not sincere in cooperating with our Huasheng company, we won't insist on it. But I would like to see how long your company can survive."
At this point, Manager Ma also felt that there was no need to bother talking with this imbecile. After squeezing out a few words from his teeth, he led the delegation and stormed out of the door.
