This Girl Forced to Become an Entertainment Company Boss-Chapter 10: 0

A few minutes ago they were just crying about not having any fish to touch, and the next second these three people started touching fish together with Jiang Juyou.

The unlocked waiting room was used as a tea room, while the large hall on the second floor was converted into an office area. In the spacious hall, there was only one office desk, and the four of them gathered around it, murmuring about something.

"I don't know much about the domestic entertainment industry, but I know how foreign groups collect songs," Li Yao came up with an idea. As she spoke, she touched her phone, then circumvented the Great Firewall to check the accounts of those producers for Jiang Juyou.

As soon as she said this, the other two understood. Li Yao was looking up accounts over there, while Zhao Xu explained to Jiang Juyou, "Now foreign groups like to directly purchase songs written by European and American producers. When they start preparing for an album, those brokerage companies will contact foreign producers or studios to collect songs. Then it's like playing Hangman, putting songs that fit the overall album concept into it."

Jiang Juyou's eyes lit up when she heard this, because it didn't sound too difficult. She leaned in, eagerly waiting for the page to finish loading.

But Yang Siyu added, "But the process is quite long, basically half a year."

Jiang Juyou: "..."

Unlike those fans who like to throw investments and make data, the three of them were career fans. This was mainly reflected in the fact that they could clearly remember who the makeup studio, photography studio, MV director, producer, choreography team, etc. were for each comeback.

In addition to following their favorite idols, their Instagram was also used to follow these staff members. This allowed them to know at the first moment whenever there was the slightest sign of a comeback.

Seeing that her boss didn't quite understand, Yang Siyu continued, "You have to decide the style of the album first, then collect songs and record them. Just this process takes at least three months. If the title track is determined in the meantime, an MV meeting has to be held to decide the style and makeup, and shooting is basically a month before the comeback."

Jiang Juyou: "..."

She asked this because Jiang Juyou suddenly thought last night that the trainees would be on stage performing two months later, but they didn't have any songs yet, so she had to solve this quickly. What followed was her flipping through the Internet to finally find some prices for artists' and songs' copyrights.

[For commercial performances, live broadcasts, programs, concerts... Price: 320,000 yuan]

[For commercial performances, live broadcasts, programs, concerts... Price: 179,000 yuan]

[For commercial performances, live broadcasts, programs, concerts... Price: 60,000 yuan]

These were still relatively cheap. Some wildly popular song copyrights were close to a million, of course there were also cheap ones at hundreds of yuan per song, and then charging the audience a certain fee based on ticket prices and seating capacity, but Jiang Juyou hadn't even heard of those songs.

If she really bought songs this way, what would be emptied first was not the unlocked buildings, but those expensive songs.

So she wanted to buy some songs directly for them to sing until they vomited.

"Here are some, they are all producers with quite good reputations." Li Yao showed her boss the screenshots. The profiles of these producers had email addresses to facilitate contact from other companies.

Jiang Juyou also just glanced at them briefly. Her mind was a bit chaotic right now, and she hadn't decided whether to directly buy songs or some Cover copyrights.

"Uh... for the month-end evaluation performance, wouldn't Covers of some existing songs be better?" Jiang Juyou asked the three of them, waiting for the teachers to give suggestions.

"Do you need to buy copyright for the month-end evaluation?" Li Yao frowned.

"Oh, it's the one two months later. We talked about inviting some passersby to watch, remember?" Zhao Xu said while patting Li Yao.

"Yes, I was thinking of inviting some passersby to watch, getting one more fan would be good." Jiang Juyou explained.

The three of them started chattering, trying to find a solution. Yang Siyu, who had been quite calm on the side, threw out a landmine amidst the clamor, "But... you don't need to spend money if it's non-commercial."

Jiang Juyou: "..."

Li Yao: "That's right."

Zhao Xu: "We're not selling tickets?"

Jiang Juyou: "You're the real capitalist, who would come watch even for free. And you want to sell tickets?"

Zhao Xu narrowed her eyes and grinned.

Sitting between them, Yang Siyu looked left and right, then confirmed with her boss, "If the performance two months later has no admission fee, no live broadcast, and no distribution on other platforms, then no copyright fee is required."

Jiang Juyou swore this was the most pleasing sentence she had heard since working nine-to-five and struggling to make ends meet.

This sentence was like glucose, instantly reviving the hypoglycemic Jiang Juyou to full health. She felt like the hair she had pulled out last night was now growing back out.

Li Yao smiled and glanced at her phone again. "Do you still need this then?" She was referring to the contact information of those producers.

"I need it!" Jiang Juyou said immediately. "Please help me get in touch with them."

"Sure!"

"No problem."

"Boss, I've uploaded the behind-the-scenes video to the platform, please take a look."

The three of them slid their chairs back to their respective workstations. After Jiang Juyou received the behind-the-scenes video, she also started other work. The other three took out their phones and started happily slacking off under their boss's nose.

One issue resolved, there was still another one.

The app design was Jiang Juyou's biggest headache. She flipped through various complaints on Weibo, while ideas in her mind got all jumbled up and caused a traffic jam in her brain.

"Phew..." In her mind, Jiang Juyou thought, 'What a fulfilling morning.' Then she glanced at the time and found that only thirty minutes had passed. It wasn't even 10 o'clock yet.

She closed her eyes peacefully and whispered a complaint, "Why does time pass so slowly..."

Jiang Juyou opened one eye and tilted her head to scan the other three at the table. Seeing that they were all busy, she shut up and quietly got up, intending to go down to the practice room on the basement level to take a look.

Just now in the company group chat, someone from the Newcomer Management team said that the trainees had arrived at the practice room before 7 AM.

Random Entertainment Company Group

A&R/Liu Jiajia: "Oh wow, it's not even 8:10 yet and the kids are all here already."

A&R/Ge Mu: "It was almost midnight when I sent the last one back last night."

Marketing/Zhao Xu: "They seem very hardworking."

A&R/Liu Jiajia: "I asked them, they said they arrived a little after 7."

Marketing/Li Yao: "Don't they sleep at all?"

Marketing/Yang Siyu: "High school students seem to only sleep 6 or 7 hours."

Marketing/Zhao Xu: "What classes do they have in the morning?"

A&R Liu Jiajia: "Self-practice in the morning, classes start at 1 PM."

Marketing/Li Yao: "I heard there's also a selfie class."

A&R Liu Jiajia: "Yes, they had it yesterday. I'll post the photos in the group later for you all to review, that's part of your job."

Marketing/Li Yao: "OKK!"

When Jiang Juyou went down to the basement level, the lively discussion in the group to review those boys' selfies was heating up. Since it would be sent back to the trainees as feedback, they commented while summarizing sentences for easy collection before sending it to the trainees later.

She closed her phone and walked out of the elevator. As she approached the practice room, she could hear faint music coming from inside.

Jiang Juyou held some anticipation. After all, a few of them had a little bit of foundation.

She input the password, and after several beeps, she first opened the door a small crack. The huge sounds of music immediately rushed into her ears.

Peering through the gap, she sneakily took a look inside. There were only three people in the practice room, while two rooms in the adjacent vocal training room were lit.

"One two three four!"

"Two two three four!" fre𝚎w𝐞bn𝗼v𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝗼𝚖

Facing the mirror, the three people were doing the most basic, foundational squat and rhythmic movements.

Except for Chi Qiao, who had street dance experience, the other two looked like earthworms twisting and writhing after crawling out from the soil after rain.

Jiang Juyou: "..."

What exactly was she expecting?
