    Yuan Qiaoqiao practiced in the vocal practice room for a long time. During the break, she picked up the water cup that had been soaked with honeysuckle, fat seaweed and Luo Han Guo, and saw that there was only a bottom left in it.  She shook the cup and poured the last bit of water into her mouth. Then she took the cup, pushed the door open and went out to the company's break room to pour water.

    Pushing open the door of the lounge, she saw Fang Siya, the female singer signed by the company earlier this year, also inside. She smiled politely at her and said hello: "Sister Siya, you are here too."

    Fang Siya, who was also holding a water glass in her hand and was waiting for hot water, saw her, raised the corners of her mouth, and said with a smile: "Xiao Yuan, I guess you are the most diligent person in the company. Look at you, as long as you are here  The company is either in the practice room or the recording studio, or asking for advice from the company's vocal teacher How can we survive if you work so hard and are so unmotivated compared to us?"

    Hearing this, Yuan Qiaoqiao smiled awkwardly, "No way, in fact, everyone is working hard. The teacher said that my voice condition is not very good, and I have not received formal music education or systematic professional training, so he asked me to learn more  Learn, practice more, and the stupid bird will fly first.¡±

    Fang Siya glanced at her sideways and said with a smile: "That's too modest. You were discovered by our company's music director, Mr. Zhang. If you're a fool, how could the company sign you?"

    After hearing this, Yuan Qiaoqiao couldn't say that Mr. Zhang had misjudged her, and she didn't want to blindly belittle herself in front of Fang Siya. After all, although the two were colleagues, they were also competitors, so she smiled.  , said nothing.

    Seeing that she just smiled and said nothing, Fang Siya had an expression on her face that said "I was right" and said with a smile: "Okay, we all know what's going on, so don't even think about trying to defend yourself.  .¡±

    She stood at the door of the lounge and looked out. Seeing no one on both sides of the corridor, she turned back and lowered her voice and asked: "Xiao Yuan, the company values ??you so much. How many years have you signed a contract with the company? How are you with the company?"  A split method?¡±

    Regarding the contract between the artist and the company and the sharing of such matters, although there is no confidentiality agreement signed, it is a common rule in the industry that artists are not allowed to inquire about each other in private; and the person being questioned cannot be leaked.  This is the rule.

    Yuan Qiaoqiao didn¡¯t believe that Fang Siya, who had entered the industry earlier than her, didn¡¯t know this. Since she knew, she asked, making it clear that bullying Yuan Qiaoqiao was a newcomer, so she probably didn¡¯t know the taboos involved.

    If Yuan Qiaoqiao didn't know the world and leaked the contract and profit sharing to her, could she use this to infer how much the company valued her? Could she also use it as a "handle" to get a feel for her?  Find out what her temperament means.

    Unlike Yuan Qiaoqiao, who has just joined the company and is not focused on the music scene, Fang Siya, who is preparing to make a big splash in the music scene, has learned everything about the company not long after joining the company.

    Although the company has caught up with the "new generation" of mainland singers in 1994, the group of people it launched did not become a big hit.  In other words, the popularity did not meet the company's expectations, but even so, the more popular ones all chose to terminate their contracts with the company and leave before last year. Among the remaining singers, most of them are unknown except for a few who are semi-popular.  .

    In the past two years, the company's business policies have been changing, and there have been a lot of changes in the top management. In addition, several singers have terminated their contracts, so no new people have been signed in the past two years.  This year, several people have been signed one after another, including Yuan Qiaoqiao, there are five in total, but the only female singers are her and Yuan Qiaoqiao.

    Fang Siya knows that for the senior brothers and sisters who have been in the industry for several years, no matter whether they are popular or not, the company will not have too many resources to lean towards them. As for the newcomers, although they are all her competitors, they are relatively  Yuan Qiaoqiao, who is also a woman, is a greater threat to her than the other three men, especially after she knows that their voices are the same.

    When she heard that the company had signed another female singer, and that the company's music director, Mr. Zhang, had discovered it, she couldn't help but raise her heart. After waiting for someone to join the company, she found that the company did not recruit her immediately.  She was assigned to the agent below, but was led by Teacher Wang, one of Mr. Zhang's right-hand men. This situation made her improve her evaluation of Yuan Qiaoqiao and treat her as a strong opponent.

    Because she didn¡¯t know the relationship between Yuan Qiaoqiao and the Huang family, she didn¡¯t see anything worthy of the company¡¯s attention in Yuan Qiaoqiao.  It is true that Yuan Qiaoqiao is very beautiful, but the singer industry does not have such high requirements for appearance. Generally speaking, as long as the head is straight and the face can be seen, the most important thing in this industry is the voice. Even if the voice is good enough, the appearance  It doesn¡¯t matter if it¡¯s not good, such as Zhou Hui, a Taiwanese singer who became famous for her song ¡°Promise¡±.

    Fang Siya heard Yuan Qiaoqiao sing??, she thinks that her singing skills are better than hers, but after she signed a contract with the company, although she had an agent, she shared it with several people, and she had been in the company for so long, except for being arranged to participate in commercial performances, she was also with the company  She studied with teachers there, from sightseeing, singing, ear training, to training typhoons, etc., but she never received any news from the company about releasing an album or single for her, which made her not anxious.

    Yuan Qiaoqiao had not been in the company for long, and she had just caught up with the preparations for the Spring Festival Gala, and the company decided to promote her to the Spring Festival Gala without hesitation.  Although no singles or albums were released for her, in her opinion, the heavyweight resource of the Spring Festival Gala was enough to offset everything.

    Although she joined the company earlier than Yuan Qiaoqiao, they both joined in the same year and at the same time. Compared with the resources allocated to Yuan Qiaoqiao, the company obviously did not treat them equally. Yuan Qiaoqiao's treatment was relatively different.  Hers is better, why?  She refused.

    Yuan Qiaoqiao didn't know anything about Fang Siya's thoughts, because there were many singers in the company eyeing the Spring Festival Gala, but she, who had just joined the company, grabbed a piece of cake. While arousing envy and jealousy,  There would definitely be a lot of dissatisfaction, but what she didn't expect was that the first one to jump out was Fang Siya.

    She smiled, as if she didn't understand the malice in her question, and asked back: "Sister Siya, you have signed a contract with the company for several years, and what is the sharing method?"

    Fang Siya didn't expect that she would ask back. She hesitated for a moment, then smiled awkwardly after a while, "If you don't want to say it, just don't say it. Why are you asking about my contract with the company?"

    Facing Yuan Qiaoqiao's eyes that seemed to see everything, the smile on her face couldn't help but solidify, and she explained with a dry smile: "You may not know, our company used to sign new people, and they often signed contracts for ten to fifteen years. Like Sister Bai Yan and others  It is said that those singers all had such long-term contracts, and when they first joined the company, they were only offered a basic salary of 800 per month, and their performance remuneration was 30-70 per month compared to the company.

    Originally, the company learned this from Hong Kong and Taiwan, but after the singer became famous, they felt that the contract was unreasonable and included all the best years of a singer's youth, so they started to terminate the contract.

    And for those who have not been popular for several years after joining the company, the company feels that it is not cost-effective to sign such a long-term contract with them. If the resources used on them are used to sign new people, they may be able to bring out a new person.

    Therefore, when the company signs new people, they will only sign long-term contracts unless they feel they have potential and the possibility of becoming popular. Otherwise, most people will sign for two or three years.

    ¡° Qiaoqiao, you are so good, and the company values ??you so much, I think your contract must be better than mine.  "

    Of course, Yuan Qiaoqiao knew that as a newcomer, he would suffer losses if he signed a contract with the company. After hearing this, he smiled and said, "Didn't the company already tell us how we should be trained when we signed the contract?"

    No matter whether the company can fulfill its promise when signing the contract or it can't, at least when the contract was signed, the company and the individual signed the contract after reaching an agreement on the contract conditions. Didn't you say that to Sister Siya when you signed the contract?  "

    Although Yuan Qiaoqiao told Chen Xiang hypocritically before that she didn¡¯t want to follow Huang Haitao¡¯s path, she actually fell into his favor.  For example, even though there is a company behind her, if singers with the same conditions are placed with her and only one can stay, because of her relationship with the Huang family, even if Huang Haitao doesn't intervene, she will definitely not be deposed in the end.  .

    Yuan Qiaoqiao was speechless when it came to the contract. Fang Siya smiled awkwardly, rolled her eyes, and asked casually: "Xiao Yuan, you should prepare for the contract held at the end of March or early April next year."  Are you ready for the Youth Singing Competition? Are you planning to participate in the name of a company or as an individual? Have you prepared the entries?"

    The full name of the Youth Singing Competition is "National Singer Television Grand Prix", and because it is hosted by the national television station, it is also called "CCTV Young Singer Television Grand Prix". It is held every two years and is the most influential top-level large-scale event in China.  .  Many well-known singers currently active in the music scene, such as Peng Liyuan, Wei Wei, Mao Xinmin, Song Zuying, Tan Jing, Xie Xiaodong, Cai Guoqing, Yan Weiwen, Mao Ning, Jiang Tao all came out of the Youth Song Competition.

    From the preliminaries, semi-finals to the finals, plus the preliminary preparations, it will take at least half a year, and basically all the energy must be invested in it. Yuan Qiaoqiao's schedule for the first half of next year is almost all arranged.  , shook his head, and said honestly: "I will not participate." She was telling the truth. As for whether Lu Xiaoqiao believed it or not, it was up to her.

    Hearing this, Fang Siya curled her lips imperceptibly, making it clear that she didn't believe her words, and said, "Oh, it would be a pity if you don't participate. The annual Youth Singing Competition is a rare and good opportunity.  .

    Even if you don¡¯t win the championship, as long as you enter the finals, no, as long as you enter the semi-finals, it means that your voice and singing skills have been recognized by professionals.  "

    After hearing her words with serious connotations, Yuan Qiaoqiao raised her eyebrows slightly and chuckled, "I think the company can sign a contract with me. It has obviously recognized my voice and thinks my singing skills should be good."  It's passable, otherwise, you wouldn't be so confident in recommending me to the Spring Festival Gala."
