Two Hundred and Thirteen Wonderful News
"King of the Stage ()"
"...I'm thinking now, what if I follow you guys?" Alice hesitated to express her thoughts, but instead of leaving, she continued to stay.
"Alice..." Ronan was slightly surprised. He tried to dissuade Alice, but Alice waved her hand nonchalantly, stopped Ronan's words, and continued.
"It's just an idea, and it hasn't been decided yet." Alice's words made Ronan calm down and listen patiently, "I just think that walking with the band on the road is an experience in itself. The images and life I see are different from yours, I like this kind of experience, so I thought, if I can continue to follow you, maybe I can find the inspiration for my first official film project.”
"But Ai Li, you follow us, how do you find project funding? How do you find a filming team? Your life is completely confined to the band, and there is no free time at all." Ronan shook his head lightly, expressing his denial .
Alice laughed softly, "Who knows, maybe I will follow you to the party, and then I will be able to meet top producers or something, just like last night's party, now I regret that I didn't go together, with There are actually many opportunities by your side. What's more, I'm still your manager, have you forgotten?"
"Ai Li." Ronan called out with some helplessness, "This is not funny..."
The most important thing is that after finishing Bruno's warm-up show, the band is not sure what to do next, they are just taking one step at a time, so what is the significance of Alice following the band? Ronan still hopes that Alice can chase her dream.
Ronan adjusted his sitting posture, straightened his waist, and prepared to have an in-depth conversation with Alice, but Alice's cell phone rang abruptly interrupted the conversation.
Alice picked up the phone and gestured to Ronan, stopped Ronan's nagging rhythm, and smiled triumphantly, which made Ronan a little helpless, and then watched Alice connected the phone, "Hello, This is Alice, agent of the King for a Day."
After finishing speaking, Alice made a grimace at Ronan, as if she said this on purpose, Ronan shook his head helplessly.
"Yeah... umm... that's right... oh, where are you from? Ah, yes, yes, I'm interested, of course. We'd love to. So, when?"
Originally, Ronan looked at Alice with a helpless smile in his eyes, but slowly, Ronan was able to detect something was wrong, and the direction of the conversation was a bit strange, which made Ronan also gather his attention and looked at Alice.
Alice seemed to be able to feel Ronan's eyes behind the sunglasses, pointed to the phone, and said with her mouth: job opportunity.
A job offer for a king for a day? Or a job offer for Alice? Or something else?
Ronan adjusted his sitting posture, took off his sunglasses, and faintly looked forward to it.
Alice's call time was a little bit long, and she didn't sit passively on the call, she even stood up, left the restaurant with her mobile phone, walked to the outdoor swimming pool, and had a conversation without disturbing other guests. It looks like they're discussing something important.
The whole call lasted for nearly fifteen minutes before Alice turned around and walked back.
It was only then that Ronan realized that his palms were covered with sweat—if it was really about the band, then Alice was the manager who drove the ducks to the shelves. Is she up to the job? Will there be any problems? Will the other party make things difficult for Alice? These are all unknown situations.
"Huh?" Ronan restrained himself from being overly worried, and just cast a questioning look at Alice.
Alice took a seat next to Ronan upright, with a trace of solemnity between her brows, the atmosphere vaguely condensed like this, and then Alice said slowly, "Ronan, if I say, one day the king's next A job is fixed,
Can't you refuse me to continue following you? "
"Ai Li..." Ronan said with a dumbfounded smile.
Alice raised her right hand and swayed her index finger slightly, "Wait, I haven't finished yet, if I say, I've signed a contract for two records for King One Day, shouldn't you just look at me squarely?" What about your ability to work? Then you can’t refuse me to continue taking risks with you, can you?”
"..." Ronan's expression froze and stiffened like this, joy was about to break out of the ground, but he still tried his best to suppress the madness, the confusion in his eyes slowly overflowed, and he asked with his eyes:
What the hell does this mean?
The arc of Alice's mouth rose slightly, and then she nodded slowly, "Yes, your thinking is correct, the call just now was from Atlantic Records, and they asked if the One Day Kings had signed a record contract now, and whether Willing to sign a five-album cooperation agreement with them."
"I told them that the One Day Kings would love to work with Atlantic Records, but a five-record deal is absolutely out of the question. It's a risk for them and for us. Why don't we sign two albums in three years? contract, but with Atlantic having first renewing rights, it’s a much more logical start.”
No wonder it took so long for Alice's phone conversation just now, that's why.
Alice didn't just nod and agree like a novice, and she didn't lose her sense of being flattered just because the other party was the high-ranking Atlantic Records. On the contrary, she kept a calm posture and burst out the wisdom of seeing the whole situation in a short time. With the sharpness of the bargain.
Alice's performance was not only sophisticated, but also sharp.
Ronan was a little dazed, staring at Alice, unable to believe his ears, this was obviously not the Alice that Ronan knew.
Alice winked at Ronan slyly, "Although the other party didn't immediately agree on the spot, he thought it was an interesting cooperation proposal worth talking about. If you like, we can go to Atlantic Records' headquarters in Manhattan tomorrow. , and discuss it further.”
"I think this is a very good idea, so I nodded and agreed." Then, Alice leaned forward slightly, leaning on the table with her upper body, and lowered her voice, "Ronan, I think they should agree, this proposal should No problem, I am confident. Hee hee, what do you think?"
Seeing Alice's eccentric expression, the shock and astonishment gradually faded away, and the smile on the corner of Ronan's mouth involuntarily rose, and he nodded slightly at Alice, "Well, I think this is very good."
After a pause, the joy surged in his chest like this, the sense of happiness slowly filled up like blowing up a balloon, and the sense of reality slowly settled down, so he nodded again to express his affirmation, and repeated, "This is very good."
