Chapter 4 After Becoming Famous

The next day, the first thing Luo Quan did when he woke up was to turn on his phone and look at the clicks on his three videos.

She originally thought that the views of the three songs that night must have reached 100,000, but to her surprise, the views of each video exceeded 200,000!

And every time she refreshes the interface, the number of views will increase by dozens or dozens!

It's only nine o'clock in the morning. If it's noon, wouldn't the cumulative views exceed one million? !

Looking at the comment area, Luo Quan found that a considerable amount of views were contributed by Daisuke Shimizu's fans. Then he entered Daisuke Shimizu's homepage and saw that he posted a new video at one o'clock in the morning last night. The title of the video was : The third part of Tokyo tour - meeting a beautiful foreign girl!

At the beginning of the video, Daisuke Shimizu strongly recommended "Lemon" sung by Luo Quan to fans. In the middle of the video, there is also an incomplete version of Luo Quan singing on the street.

It sounds like Daisuke Shimizu has modified the sound of this section, which sounds more comfortable than the version recorded by Luo Quan himself.

It was this video that caused tens of thousands of fans who watched Daisuke Shimizu's video to flock to Luo Quan's personal homepage like bees seeking the scent of flowers.

To fans' surprise, in addition to "Lemon", there are two other songs in Luo Quan's personal space. Although the sound and image quality are not very good, the quality of the songs themselves is quite high.

In particular, the song "I once thought about settling it down" has resonated greatly with many Japanese young people.

Because most Japanese people had gone to bed by the time the video was released, there has been no movement on the mainstream news website Livedoor until now, but it is already trending on Twitter.

A user named "Ai Lijiang" retweeted the chorus of "I once thought about it and it was all over the place" with the text: I once thought about it and it was all over. It was because of people like my sister living in the world that I became aware of this. The world has some expectations!

This tweet was posted at 4 a.m. and has received 4,000 likes so far. The number of likes is still rising at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the number of comments has exceeded 1,000 in a short period of time. All of them are Encourage "Ellie-chan" to live bravely.

Searches for Izumi and "One Hundred and One Hundred" have already reached the trending list in Japan on Twitter, and it is only a matter of time before they enter the top ten.

Just when Luo Quan was about to apply for a Twitter account for promotion, two emails appeared in her Google mailbox.

One letter was signed Ai Hui Music Entertainment, and the other letter was signed Sony Records.

Luo Quan's heart couldn't help but beat wildly. These two record companies were well-deserved music giants!

The former occupies the largest share of the Japanese record market, while the latter is one of the three internationally renowned record companies in the world, and now they are looking for her at the same time!

what does that mean? This means that these big companies have seen her potential and are already planning to recruit her.

The content of the email first introduced the glorious history of his company, such as its artists and its position in the Japanese record market, and then mentioned that he wanted to sign Luo Quan and make her a new member of the company.

In addition to the signing bonus, a lot of resources have been promised in various aspects. Such conditions are already relatively generous for a newcomer.

But because of the systematic restrictions, Luo Quan could only say sorry for the various contract conditions of these companies.

Luo Quan then used a more sincere and tactful tone to send emails to the two record companies refusing to sign the contract.

In less than a minute, Ai Hui's company responded: Our company has quite a few big singers (equivalent to divas) and has a complete and mature system for cultivating female singers. Please consider it again.

Luo Quan could only find an excuse and reply: "I am a college student and have no plans to become a professional singer yet."

"It's such a shame. Then are you willing to sell us the copyright of those three songs? We can give you one million yen for each song!"

Luo Quan couldn't help but frowned when he saw Ai Hui's quote from the company. Three million yen sounded like a lot, but it was only 200,000 yen when converted into soft girl coins.

I don’t know if this company is bullying her because she looks like a foreigner because she doesn’t understand the Japanese record market, or if they really intend to kill her like a pig.

An ordinary college student with no experience in the world might actually sell the songs at such a bargain price, but how could Luo Quan, who knew the value of these three songs, make such a short-sighted decision?

He just replied calmly: "Let me think about it again."

Reality was able to cool down Luo Quan's temper in time. She overestimated her attraction to these large companies, and at the same time underestimated the extent to which capitalists exploited the working people.

There is an old saying that goes well, be kind!

After sending Ai back to the company, Sony Records sent another reply, but the conditions given by the latter were completely different from the former.

After Sony's request for a contract was rejected by Luo Quan, it no longer dwelled on this point. Instead, it turned around and wanted to purchase the exclusive distribution rights of these three songs from Luo Quan.

It's just the distribution rights, not the copyright. Even if the contract is signed, the songs still belong to Luo Quan. The key price is also very sincere. It is an exclusive license for ten years. The package price is 20 million yen, and it is after tax and the profit from the sales. The division has to be calculated separately!

This price is nearly seven times that of Aihui Company, and it does not sell the copyright. For a newcomer, this is definitely a very conscientious price!

The system only restricted her from signing contracts with these companies as an artist, but it was still possible to let record companies release music for her, not to mention that the price offered by Sony Records was so fair.

Or else, it is one of the three major record companies in the world. Look at this situation. Record companies are also competing in Japan. How come there is such a big gap in the treatment of newcomers?

Luo Quan was not greedy. She made a decision immediately when she saw the price was reasonable. Her reply to the email contained only two words: "Deal!"

Unlike China, Japan does not have a special ID card. Although the government has been promoting something called My number card in recent years, less than 20% of Japanese people have applied for this kind of identity card.

So when Sony asked Luo Quan to provide proof of identity, she gave her her student ID card.

Two minutes later, Sony Records sent Luo Quan an electronic contract for the sale of exclusive distribution rights.

After accepting it, Luo Quan went downstairs and found a nearby convenience store with a printer, printed two copies of the contract, and signed his Chinese name and stage name.

The Chinese name is Luo Quan, and the stage name is the nickname given by the original owner, which is Quan Shui (Izumi).

After a while, Sony Records will send someone over to collect the contract. Once the words are signed, the contract will take effect immediately, and the 20 million yen should be credited to his account in a short time.

When he thought that such a huge sum of money was about to be received, Luo Quan jumped home all the way, with a happy and bright smile on his face, and his golden hair shined in the sun.

Soon, the contract collector sent by Sony Records arrived at Luo Quan's door. After hearing the knock on the door, Luo Quan quickly picked up the contract and opened the door.

"Hello, is this Miss Luo Quan?" The person who came was a young man, wearing a decent suit even in the hot summer, and his tone was very polite.

"Yes." Luo Quan nodded.

The young man took out his work ID and said, "I am the contract collector appointed by Sony Records. Just call me Miki."

"The contract is here, I have signed it." The contract for the distribution rights of Luo Quan Jiang's three songs was handed over to Miki.

Miki checked it and made sure there was no problem before saying: "After the contract takes effect, the money will be transferred to your account as soon as possible. If you encounter any problems later, you can contact us by email. I will take the contract back to the headquarters for signature immediately. Not much excuse me."

After saying that, he turned around and ran downstairs.

The harsh friction sound of the car's tires and the ground suddenly sounded on the quiet road. When Luo Quan looked around, he could only see a line of flying dust, and the car had disappeared at the end of the road.

"Is it necessary to be in such a hurry?" Luo Quan scratched his head and complained.
