The man of scumbag Gulnazar
Chapter 16 After Winning the Championship
After receiving Qin Tian's text message, Naza hesitated for a moment before replying, "That's awesome! I watched the live broadcast at home. You really didn't let me down, ψ(`?′)ψ!" She was actually a little pleased, but for some reason, she didn't admit that she had also been to the event.
Qin Tian quickly replied, "Sister Naza, I'll keep trying. Wait for me, let me catch up with you! Don't fly too fast!" Then, Qin Tian continued chatting with Naza, since they hadn't contacted each other for half a month. He thought to himself, this can't go on like this; I need to show her consistent care, otherwise she might run away. Playing hard to get—if I keep doing this, it won't work.
Naza didn't seem to mind being called "Sister Naza" at all; in fact, she quite enjoyed it. She chuckled inwardly, "You little rascal!" But her reply was incredibly gentle: "You must be so excited after your competition! But remember to spend time with your family too. You'll be taking off tonight, so remember to catch up quickly! ヽ(*≧w≦)? Otherwise, I won't wait for you!"
Qin Tian hadn't had such a pleasant chat with Nazha in a long time, but he also knew that he really needed to spend time with his parents and family at the moment, so he ended the chat after only a brief exchange.
……
Back at Canxing headquarters, President Luo called a meeting with the company's director and Na Xin, Na Jie's sister. He presented a contract targeting Qin Tian and said, "You can tell from the three songs he sang on the night of the finale that Qin Tian has a bright future! Many companies are already coming with big sums of money, even willing to sacrifice some of their resources to acquire him."
Everyone nodded in agreement, as Qin Tian's future was indeed bright. After discussion, they felt it was inappropriate to have Sun Qian directly handle the negotiations, as it would seem disrespectful. Therefore, they decided to first have Sister Na accompany him, and then have President Luo personally negotiate the new contract with Qin Tian.
The contract is tentatively set as follows: the singer will receive a 30/70 split of profits from song releases, which is already quite high, considering the contract wasn't signed as a newcomer agreement. It will still be a music contract, not a full-fledged one, because Na Xin has learned from Na Jie that Qin Tian won't focus solely on music. And Canxing Film & Television's resources aren't very strong.
The original plan for the commercial performance was a 30/70 split, with the company receiving 70% and Qin Tian 30%, but it has now been changed to a 50/50 split. The contract term is five years.
After all, Qin Tian is a newcomer, and it's uncertain how long his popularity as a talent show contestant will last. However, the company has decided to treat him like a top-tier artist, with additional terms: if his new album sells well and generates 50 million in net profit for the company in the first year, his contract will be upgraded to a top-tier artist contract, with the profits split 80/20, the company receiving 20% and Qin Tian 80%. If Qin Tian also writes songs for other artists under the company, he will be paid according to the standards for top-tier songwriters, with shared copyrights, and he will be granted the position of music director.
……
Qin Tian was currently unaware of this. After arranging things for his family, he was indeed exhausted. Overwhelmed by both mental stress and physical fatigue, he fell into a deep sleep.
When I woke up the next day, everything had changed. The news of Qin Tian's victory on The Voice of China had been announced on Weibo's trending topics list the previous night, and it had reached number one. The top ten trending topics were all about The Voice of China.
include:
"Adam and Zhang Wei were invited to sing a duet!"
"Liu Tianxian and the Fifth Prince of Tongquetai presented the award on site!"
"Fan Xiaopang personally presented the award to Li Daimo!"
Any celebrity who participates gets a flood of announcements and offers.
Canxing and Zhejiang TV made a fortune, followed by Jiaduobao, which also raked in huge profits. Jiaduobao's battle with Wanglaoji resulted in the disappearance of Heqizheng. Of course, Qin Tian also profited considerably.
When Qin Tian woke up early in the morning, he saw various congratulatory Weibo posts:
Congratulations to Qin Tian on winning the 2012 Voice of China championship – Sina Entertainment
"The Grand Finale of The Voice of China at Shanghai's 80,000-Seat Stadium - Shanghai Evening News"
"Qin Tian's Three New Songs Amaze the Audience - Sohu Entertainment Report"
Today is Qin Tian's Day. The last person to become an overnight sensation like this was Xiao Shenyang in 08!
After communicating with Sun Qian, Qin Tian directly announced the news on the official Weibo account: "Thank you to all the teachers, family members and fans for your support! Without you, there would be no current achievements! At the same time, to thank the fans for their support, I have decided to make all the songs performed on The Voice of China available on PP Music for free! I will also be giving away three songs that previously required payment: 'Sorrow,' 'A Person Like Me,' and 'If One Day I Become Very Rich!'"
After posting on Weibo, Mr. Luo from Canxing Entertainment, along with Na Ying, came to visit. Yes, the word "visit" was used. The contract terms were exactly what Qin Tian wanted to hear.
First, he only signs music contracts. Qin Tian has no intention of starting a music company. These days, singers don't make money selling albums anymore; they can only rely on variety shows, concerts, and commercial performances. The profits aren't huge, but the freedom is a major advantage.
Secondly, Canxing underestimated the influence of The Voice of China this year. Although they overestimated it, the result was still even greater than they predicted! Wu Mochou, the second place winner in history, earned 100 million yuan a year from endorsements and commercial performances, let alone Qin Tian? Qin Tian's popularity has been higher than in history from beginning to end, as he is both talented and handsome.
Thirdly, he'll write songs for his artists. Qin Tian had already promised to write songs for the three of them during the final night, so this would earn him double the favor!
Qin Tian readily agreed without hesitation, as his wallet was empty and he desperately needed to earn some start-up capital. He didn't care at all about the possibility of overdrawing his popularity with a large number of commercial performances, at least not at the moment. After all, "Why worry about face when you're making money? You can worry about it when you have more money later."
After finishing his work today, Qin Tian immediately went to talk to Sun Qian about endorsements. He made several requests: First, try to sign short-term contracts so as not to tie himself down too much; second, absolutely no food endorsements, to avoid getting into trouble; third, the price has to be high, because we're aiming for big profits!
Next came the album recording appointment. Hey, guess what? Qin Tian's performance fee had skyrocketed to 55 yuan, and even people from the film industry were approaching him, even though he'd never heard of those movies before.
(Don't doubt that 55 is a small amount. Look at this, singer Sun Nan only got 40, S.H.E.'s package price was only 60, and the Four Heavenly Kings only got two or three million!)
Qin Tian's principle is simple: he'll do any commercial performance if the price is high, but movies are out of the question.
And look, Qin Tian is hot again! He's written three songs in a row, and the lyrics are absolutely brilliant: "One cup to the sunrise, one cup to the moonlight, one cup to my hometown, one cup to the distant land, one cup to tomorrow, one cup to the past, one cup to freedom, one cup to death. Eight cups of wine from birth to death," it's so moving! And then there are those lines, "Someone as outstanding as him, what's he confused about? What happened?" and "If one day I become very rich," making everyone exclaim, "What a genius!"
On Weibo, netizens commented: "Damn, these three songs are amazing! You have to listen to them in a row. I'm really worried lately. People like me are quite lost. Lost about what? I'm short of money!" Qin Tian laughed out loud: "Yes, yes, yes! That's exactly it!"
The Southern Entertainment News also reported on this: "Musical prodigy Qin Tian has composed three songs in succession, all with a consistent style and simple yet deeply moving arrangements." Upon seeing this news, netizens' curiosity was piqued, and they began speculating about what the songs were like. The news spread far and wide, with everyone eager to hear this legendary masterpiece.
After dealing with all the miscellaneous matters, Qin Tian finally got down to business—chatting with Miss Nazha on WeChat. He asked innocently, "Sister Nazha, I'm planning to apply to the Beijing Film Academy. What do I need to prepare?" In reality, he knew perfectly well that she already had someone from her agency; he was just chatting casually.
"Sister Naza, I'm so annoyed. I have so much work, I don't even dare to go out," Qin Tian complained.
“I was popular back then too, but not as popular as you. Nobody recognized me when I went out,” Naza replied.
"My popularity is all fake. I still have to prepare to record an album and have a bunch of commercial performances. Capitalists are just vampires. What should I do? Do you have any suggestions?" Qin Tian continued to "play the victim".
Naza thought to herself, "I feel like you're showing off, but I have no proof."
The two chatted casually, with Qin Tian occasionally showing weakness, after all, he was three years younger than Nazha, and boys mature later. This gave Nazha the feeling of "raising a young heartthrob," making him think that Qin Tian could be both soft and hard (purely unfounded).
Of course, this is only temporary. In the future, Qin Tian will rise up and sing his own praises! Then he'll show her who's the father and who's the brother!
After signing the contract, Qin Tian prepared the songs for Jike, Wu Mochou, Jin Zhiwen, and Liang Bo that very night. He returned Liang Bo's songs: "Colorful Black," "Right Now," "Entertaining Myself," and "Boy." However, he decided against taking the music director position; he didn't have time.
This really moved the four contestants! Qin Tian's talent is undeniable! And after listening to the song, they were amazed by its high quality! Qin Tian told them it was tailor-made for them! Don't envy my talent! That's just how capricious talented people are! At the same time, Qin Tian's talent once again astonished Canxing!
At this moment, Chan-hee really wanted to shout out, "Jay Chou in the South, Qin Tian in the North!" Unfortunately, Qin Tian still needs results to prove himself!
With everything prepared, Qin Tian was ready to record his song. But he realized he'd overestimated his abilities! The Voice of China had just ended, and his influence was at its peak! Endorsements and commercial performances were pouring in! Instead of recording as planned in the first month after the competition, he became a frequent flyer!
In addition to securing a 1.2 million yuan Coca-Cola endorsement deal, Qin Tian also landed endorsements with domestic and international brands such as Samsung, Adidas, Maybelline, and Suning! These were previously only deals available to top-tier celebrities! How could Qin Tian, a newcomer with no background or connections, manage to land so many endorsements? In short, Qin Tian was incredibly famous at this time!
