Resurrection 422 finally scruples.

Hugo did not immediately respond to Alfonso, but thought for a while, "Neil, I think you have misplaced the focus. Now we are thinking about the agent, not the record company."

Hugo’s words made Neil and Alfonso both react. "From the perspective of record companies, EMI is actually the one that fits our style best among the major record companies, and they also have many independent records under their umbrella. Who Knowing that we will sign at the record department "door" in the end."

Independent record companies and major record companies have their own advantages and disadvantages, but if you choose among the five major record companies, EMI Records is indeed the most suitable for glory to death.

"But I think that since Henry can consider for us, and thus selected EMI, whether we can sign with EMI or not, it shows that Henry, as an agent, has indeed considered it from our perspective." Hugo was still right. The most important point is, "It doesn’t matter if you sign with a large record company or cooperate with an independent record company. Actually, the agent is willing to stand on our side and fight for more freedom for us. This is the most important thing.

In Memphis, the most important reason for the band’s rejection of Henry was that the band’s style was restricted by record companies. They did not want to be tied down by large record companies. Then the role of the agent in the communication between the band and the company is very important. Looking at it now, first of all EMI Records has the advantage, and Henry said that the most important content in the band's heart, which naturally shakes the band members' ideas to the greatest extent

In addition, part of the reason why the band rejected Henry at the beginning was because the band was established too short and not mature enough, and the road tour has not ended, so there is no need to worry for a while. But now the band's strength has been improved to a great extent, and the band members agree that the road tour should be completed as planned, which has also reached an internal agreement.

After such comprehensive consideration, the obstacles to the signing of Glory to Death and Henry Bloom have indeed been removed. Looking at the expressions of the band members, Hugo knew that Henry was really well prepared, and he quickly grasped the most important part of the band members' hearts and succeeded in one fell swoop.

Of course, it can also be seen from here that Henry has enough sincerity to look around at the cottage; secondly, he does have a deep understanding of the band, and he will spend so much effort just to sign a newcomer band in the future, and the sincerity will increase. The points are obvious.

Hugo undeniably, including himself, was led by Henry's nose, because this is what the band really thinks.

"But, he asked for a ten-year contract..." Neal really maintained his sense, and hesitated to say that he didn't know much about the brokerage contract system in the circle, and he could only ask Hugo for help in this regard.

Hugo curled his lips, "I signed a two-year contract with Joe."

In fact, most of the contracts between agents and artists in the circle are made by the artists, because the agents are the intermediaries hired by the artists, so the initiative to terminate the contract is in the hands of the artists. Of course, a big-name agent like Lang actually has the ability to terminate the contract, but the agent will not do this, because the artist is in his hands, he arranges for a job, and he puts it aside if he doesn't have a job, anyway No need for him to pay for the living expenses of the artist.

In the newcomer period, for example, when Carl just signed Charlize, Charlize went to an acting class to prepare for becoming an actor, and even to find an apartment to live in. In this regard, the agency will give some help. This is also the newcomer likes to sign a large-scale agency. For the company's reasons, although they have a high rate of'drawing', the service is also in place.

Therefore, it is impossible for a request like Henry to sign a contract for ten years and ten times the liquidated damages, and the agent has the initiative to terminate the contract. Among the three conditions, the third is absolutely impossible. The initiative to terminate the contract is always in the hands of the artist; the first condition is too long and must be renegotiated; as for the second condition, although it is appalling , But there are precedents.

The most important thing is what can be seen from Henry’s request. Hugo’s previous conjectures have been confirmed. If Henry really cooperated with Maria Kelly, then Maria abandoned Henry and put all Henry’s efforts into waste. . Therefore, Henry has been very decadent for more than a year. This time he took a fancy to glory to death. It took such a long time to investigate and confirm that the band is not like a white-eyed wolf type. On the contrary, the band is very principled and affectionate. Even so, Henry put forward such harsh requirements in order to prevent the band from being confused by the colorful entertainment circle in the future. Once I was bitten by a snake for ten years, I was afraid of well ropes.

Hugo looked at the faintly anticipated look of his teammates, he said, "The most important thing is that you have forgotten. We have not verified Henry's identity. Let me make a call." He hesitated, Henry had already revealed all his hole cards, and the next step was the order of Glory to Death's response.

Hugo stood up and went to look for the phone in the guitar case. He noticed that Alfonso's eyes moved with him. Obviously Alfonso was worried about Hugo and Joseph's call. Hugo looked at his cell phone, hesitated, and finally dialed Joseph's office number, but to Hugo's disappointment, it was Anna who answered the call. Anna said that Joseph and Nicholas Cage went to Columbia Pictures to discuss the project together.

After hanging up the phone, Hugo did not dial Joseph's mobile number again, but instead called Karl's landline. Hugo also had no politeness, and directly asked, "Carl, your film department's "door" and Isn't there any contact with the Music Department'gate'?"

"Yes, the'gate' of the music department has nothing to do with us, and we don't know it when we meet." Carl gave a positive answer, "These are two independent department'gates'. It is difficult for us to have an'intersection' set. . But an agent like Rick has something to do with the "door" of the music department. Sometimes the theme song and soundtrack of a movie need to be packaged, so he will communicate with the "door" of the music department. But generally Say, there are no singers under an agent like Joe and me."

Carl’s answer is very detailed, and it also confirms Henry’s statement, "Then can you help me find a music agent named Henry Bloom? You know, the band and I are on tour. He found us and expressed hope. Signed. But he did not recognize me, so we are always worried about the problem." Hugo briefly explained the situation.

"Henry Bloom? The name is familiar..." Carl started talking, then stood up from the chair at the same time, and walked to the desk next to the computer. Although the office computer is still relatively rare, and there is no Internet, but people have begun to use computers for work, they can simply look up some information in the computer database, "You wait, I'm looking up now."

Carl typed his name on the computer screen, and then pressed the Enter key, and soon the message appeared line by line, "Oh, Henry Bloom, he is our company’s agent, I just said this Why is the name so familiar? He is Maria Kelly’s agent.” Maria has become popular in the United States in the past two years, and naturally everyone knows it. The reason why Henry didn’t know Hugo was actually because Hugo was only in the past half a year. Xianyu turned over. He had been in Memphis and stayed away from the movie circle. He didn’t know him. “Yes, after Maria released two albums and achieved great success, the third album was still in the process of filing. Except, and then signed a contract with another agent of the company, that incident was very unpleasant, don’t you remember? Lang also got involved at that time..."

When Carl said later, his voice automatically weakened, but Hugo was not at all because Carl mentioned that he had worked with Lang, "I know, so it seems that this should be the real Henry." Although it is still needed. Further verification, but a series of recent performances of Henry have proved the truthfulness of the matter.

"So, your band is ready to sign?" Carl stood up straight again and returned to his desk.

"We still need to discuss and discuss, and Henry hopes to sign for ten years, you know this is impossible." After getting the confirmation message, Hugo also relaxed, and simply chatted with Karl.

Carlton was stunned when he was obviously shocked by the "ten years" limit. "This is not an overlord contract. Of course it is impossible. I think Henry should be upset because of Maria. Maria was completely pulled up by Henry. They are After the hardest years, when Maria succeeded in her career, she kicked Henry aside..."

Although Carl was talking about Maria and Henry, Joseph's recent situation emerged in his mind as he said it, and he was suddenly embarrassed again, wondering if he should continue talking. "So...have you been in contact with Joe recently? I heard that he has restarted reading the script recently. It seems that he is planning to choose a good work for you."

Hugo shrugged~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I called him just now. Anna answered and said that he and Cage had gone to Columbia Pictures together. "It's Columbia Pictures again.

This sentence made Carl do not know how to answer, only to change the subject, "If he knows that your band can sign, he will definitely be very happy."

"I have to go first, my teammates are still waiting for me." Hugo twitched his mouth without saying much, and after expressing his gratitude to Karl, he hung up the phone.

Carl sighed helplessly while holding the telephone receiver, and saw that the original Joseph's office was turned into a corner where everyone piled up clutter. Although Joseph is still working on the 17th floor, it is not in the work cubicle. With his own independent office, there are even rumors that the company intends to let him go to the 22nd floor. I don't know how much true **** is.

On the other hand, after Hugo hung up the phone, he turned to face his teammates, looking at everyone's expectant and nervous expressions,'Lu' smiled and compared with an "ok" gesture, and everyone clenched fists happily. Celebrate.
