Chapter 110： opportunism

Opportunity is like a huge pie falling from the sky, and the people below must be prepared enough to catch the pie. Otherwise, either get smashed to death by the pie, or slow down and watch someone else steal the pie.

Shann-Mayer was too jittery, and it was a big surprise that Gu Luobei was able to walk into the sight of Oprah's talk show producer Jason-Riel. Although he also knows in his heart, it is estimated that Jason-Riel has at least seven or eight lists at hand, and there are more than 20 or 30 choices.

Gu Luobei was only selected because of the freshness of the news in the past two days. It is estimated that he is a promising actor, and he is also taking a challenge in music. It is also a small topic. Producer's sight. But when the heat of the news in the past two days has subsided, or the news has been clarified by the "White Night Chasing the Murderer" crew, all that has disappeared.

Overnight, Gu Luobei can make a **** and go to heaven, standing in front of the huge opportunity of Oprah's talk show: Similarly, overnight, Gu Luobei can also make a **** and go back to the world, back to independent music In the position of people, continue to work hard.

This made Sean-Mayer worry about gains and losses, and the surprise was too big and uneasy.

Therefore, in the chaos, Sean-Mayer called Teddy-Bell, subconsciously thinking that Teddy-Bell was an agent, and it was more appropriate to find a way together. After waiting for the phone to hang up, Sean-Mayer realized that Teddy-Bell is also a bare commander, and his resources are even more limited than [free] choice, otherwise, "just a dream" will not work. Go to 〖Free〗to choose. Calling Teddy Bell was a complete waste of effort.

Realizing this, Sean Mayer collapsed. It seems that whether you can seize this opportunity or not depends on the freedom to choose yourself.

In fact, after Teddy Bell hung up, he put the phone on the table and fell into deep thought.

If Gu Luobei learned that he had such a big opportunity, what would he do? It took Teddy Bell only two seconds to come up with the [answer]. Although Gu Luobei has always been used to doing what he wants, although Gu Luobei is determined to break into the world as an independent musician, what Gu Luobei has always insisted on is the quality of his works. Like music, pick up some works that you don't like.

"It's just a dream" is the crystallization of Gu Luobei's hard work. If more people like this song and resonate with more people, Gu Luobei will definitely like it. Then Oprah's talk show is a good one, not to mention that this is a direct competition with melancholy mood to lose. Teddy Bell felt that he needed to take some action.

So Teddy Bell called Claire Days.

After Claire-Days hung up the phone, thoughts ran through her mind. Although in terms of tolerance and composure, Claire Dais is a notch lower than Li Yi Kelleher, even if it is better than Gu Luobei. But it is undeniable that his vision is very vicious, from taking a fancy to Gu Luobei at the Eagle Rock Music Festival to taking the initiative to have a good relationship with Teddy Bell, thus promoting the strong alliance between Warner Records and Apple. This also allowed Claire Dyce to finally get rid of mediocrity and embark on the pace of promotion.

Claire Dyce is very clear that Li Yikelleher and he emphasized that they should have a good relationship with Gu Luobei, mainly because Gu Luobei has outstanding personal ability and is a potential stock. Aside from record production and business, even if Gu Luobei is willing to give his songs to Warner Records first, it will be worth the price. Excellent music creators are welcome at any time and any company.

But this is only limited to "being in a good relationship". After all, Gu Luobei and Warner Records have no contractual relationship. The friendship and hatred between businessmen is somewhat similar to that between countries. There are no permanent friends and no permanent enemies. The same is true for businessmen. Therefore, the friendship between Warner Records and Gu Luobei seems to be harmonious at present, because there is no conflict of interest.

This time, Oprah's talk show is a slightly sensitive first, and Warner Music's artist Linkin Park is also one of the candidates: Second, Melancholy is affiliated with Universal Music, which means that this is a direct competition, for a and Gu Luobei, who has no contract relationship with Warner Records, is fighting against each other. Is it necessary: ​​Again, this time there is no exchange of interests. If you help Gu Luobei, it means that Warner Records has unilaterally provided help.

So, Claire-Days hesitated.

After calling Claire Dais, Teddy Bell told Gu Luobei about the Oprah talk show over the phone. After Gu Luobei heard it, as expected, he said without any hesitation. "Then contact Dais. Opportunities have come to fight, of course, we must strive to see. "

Teddy Bell returned triumphantly. "Have called and was waiting for a reply. "Gu Luobei laughed dumbly.

Within two days, only on Wednesday, the news of the casting of "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night" gradually subsided, because I heard that the interview between Al Pacino and the crew has made new progress. It seems that about Gu Luo The news that the North wants to compete for the male lead is also a big thorn in Al Pacino.

Al-Pacino said in front of the reporters, "Nolan is a very outstanding director. "Although there is only this short sentence, it undoubtedly confirms that he is indeed negotiating with the "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night" crew, and this sentence also conveys the information that the negotiation is going well.

After the name "Evan-Bell" was popular among reporters for two days, it became tomorrow's yellow hua. At this time, there is still no news from Warner Records. As for 〖freedom〗, with their abilities and connections, it is difficult to get in touch with the producers of Oprah's talk show, and it is even more difficult to compete with Universal Music and Warner Records, so there is no The news came.

From this point of view, the Oprah talk show is estimated to be difficult. Opportunities are really fleeting.

Teddy Bell wanted to call Claire Dais again to inquire, but Gu Luobei stopped him this time." "This kind of big company, they all know very well that success is a success, and a failure is not. not. Even if we remind them, they won't waver. "

In fact, how could Teddy Bell not understand this truth? He also saw it very clearly. Just a little unhappy.

, "Be greedy." Eden-Hudson said sarcastically from the side. "Without this news, Evan wouldn't even be on the producer's waitlist. Now it seems that at least Evan's name is more well-known, and he has also met among those TV show producers, and the harvest is still good. "

Eden-Hudson's remarks were very calm, with a touch of irony in them, and a bit of sobriety out of the way. If Gu Luobei and Teddy Bell didn't know, this is the style of Eden and Hudson, and it is estimated that they would have fought by now.

"Let's take your heart back. Didn't Mayer arrange some promotional activities this week and next week?" Gu Luobei waved his hand greatly. This matter started from Los Angeles International Airport and blurted out to Oprah. The producer of the show had a good talk, and then it took three days before and after the news cooled down.

Although it is said that everything has not been determined at present, the final candidate for Oprah's talk show has not been selected, and Warner Records still has not given a reply, but as Eden-Hudson said, it is more important to correct the mentality, too It will only get harder and harder on the road of independent musicians. After all, as an independent musician, you have to get used to facing setbacks.

Teddy Bell quickly returned to normal, and the mental imbalance was just because the opportunity was too important and too close.

"I'll go with you." This is the basic duty of an agent.

, "I can make a **** by myself by going to the performance in Stone this week. You and I will go to the radio station in New York next week." Gu Luobei has already made plans, and Teddy Bell has resigned from his current internship job."

It is Tie Xin who wants to focus on the work of Gu Luobei's agent, but there are still some handovers that have not been completed, and he has not completely left his job for the time being.

, "It's just a live performance in Boston this week, and it doesn't matter if I'm alone."

Teddy Bell listened, hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

Gu Luobei has calmed down, but the internal wind of Warner Records still hasn't ended. Aside from Gu Luobei, Warner Music also needs to fight for Linkin Park's chance to be on Oprah's talk show this time, and is in a state of anxiety in the head-to-head confrontation with Universal Music. come up.

After careful investigation, this record company is the company of Alicia Keys. The album has not yet been released, but the newcomer who launched the promotion with the title song, UU Reading "Falling", with spirit music, blues,

The outstanding performance of jazz and other genres has attracted the attention of the industry. And this one has been established for less than a month.

The record company was established by the senior executive of the traditional hip-hop record company Aresta.

Although the Aresta company is not as large as Warner Records and Universal Music, their contacts are definitely not inferior to any company. It is reported that this senior executive has a good relationship with Oprah Winfrey himself, and he personally communicates with Oprah When Winfrey met, they had a great conversation.

This time, the candidates for Oprah's talk show have undergone drastic changes. Who will be on the show in the end and get this precious opportunity, the outcome is unpredictable.

Gu Luobei, who had regained his composure, left the school after the class on Thursday and was going to the Hatch Shell Theater (hate11) on the banks of the Charles River. A famous singer, Gu Luobei received the invitation of course. Melancholic mood actually received an invitation, but because Jacob mentioned that he couldn't meet anyone, he refused directly.

Today's second update, I still have to shout, huh, monthly pass
