Chapter 118: 2 large contracts

Latest website: After Bayern won the Champions League, there are only three league games left to play this season.

European media naturally covered his 18-year-old UEFA Champions League Golden Boots + German Cup Golden Boots, but Wu Jie just wanted to finish the Bundesliga as soon as possible. The national team will start training soon, who wants to Play professional league!

Wu Jie thinks that he may have a mental illness, because if he is replaced by another traverser, it must be too far away from the national team. Once engaged in the Chinese team.

But he is just the opposite. The Champions League is far less important than the national team in his eyes.

If you want to ask why?

It should be because the national team of this era has hope!

Bayern's next league game is on the 31st, against Frankfurt.

As long as this game is tied, Bayern can advance the "Triple Crown" victory parade.

In fact, Bayern is now preparing for the parade. The city hall of Munich has approved all Bayern parade applications, and there will likely be a city-wide carnival of hundreds of people!

So what is Wu Jie doing again?

Of course, he fulfilled his promise. The next day after returning to Munich, he was a guest on German TV and sang the German-English bilingual "Forever·Number·One" to the entire West Germany.

This Bayern team song that originally came out in the 1990s is not worse in melody than Liverpool’s "Youll·never·walk·alone", and this song is completely created for Bayern, not as a popular song. , So the lyrics are more suitable for the theme and more suitable for the whole chorus.

Of course, the quality of this song is much worse than another full German "Stern·des·Südens". If "Forever·Number·One" is only the same as "Youll·never·walk·alone" In terms of grade, then "Stern·des·Südens" will exceed a lot.

Wu Jie did not take out the "Southern Star" immediately. He plans to release the song in a few months or until next season.

But even the slightly worse "Forever·Number·One" got 1981, especially at the time when Bayern was about to win the Triple Crown. Once it was sung, it immediately caused a double resonance in the heart and body of Bayern fans. .

Bayern fans in front of the TV contacted their team's achievements, and all felt a trembling excitement. Some emotional female fans were even blurred by tears.

The recording scene of the program was similar. Dozens of fans of "ET's House" listened intoxicated, and many people also left tears in excitement.

Now the fans of "ET House" are not the same as Bayern fans. They don't completely treat Wu Jie as a star, and even some new members simply join them for his music and face value.

But is this song over?

After Wu Jie sang this song for the team and the fans, he did not end his performance. He played and sang a newest piece again.

This song is written for fans of "ET House" and the song is called "Dont·Turn·Off·The·Lights".

Wu Jie is too familiar with this song. His life was always used as background music by CCTV's world football. Although the lyrics and the football have not much relationship, but because of the melody and rhythm, it is very suitable for playing player highlights. As background music.

Wu Jie gave this song to fans, and the lyrics were a lot more suitable. Coupled with the beautiful melody and dynamic rhythm, Bayern fans in front of the TV even spontaneously supplemented Wu Jie's wonderful performances this season.

After these two songs were sung, Wu Jie's "genius singer-songwriter" secondary status was considered to be true.

Today's program is live broadcast across West Germany. German TV not only covers the entire West Germany, but even East Germany can secretly receive it.

He gave such a wonderful performance in the evening prime time, and now it is difficult to think about it all over Germany.

"This time, my fans will increase a lot, right?"

Wu Jie feels that this performance will enhance his reputation in Germany.

It's not bad to think so, because two days later, his agent Felix told him two good news.

The first good news is that Adidas finally restarted contract negotiations after Bayern won the Champions League, and the two parties have progressed very quickly.

Wu Jie knew that this was because he had recently condensed his speech, and the negative effects began to decrease as the heat subsided.

But the most important thing is that he helped Bayern win the first triple crown of West Germany, which is also an important reason for Adidas to complete the signing with him.

But this time he did not intend to let Adidas take the initiative, the treatment of that contract had to be increased a bit.

In addition, he put forward a new condition in this five-year eight million dollar contract, that is, both parties have the right to terminate the contract after the third year.

This was his punishment for Adidas' previous suspension of negotiations, and he was very determined.

Adidas' previous suspension of negotiations greatly reduced his attitude towards this company, so he must include a clause to terminate the contract early, otherwise he would rather not sign the contract.

He now also has more confidence, Puma has already re-contacted MSM company.

Wu Jie is not resisting Puma now. He just wants to get enough benefits from these two parties. He won't make any concession for this contract.

Adidas couldn't help it. Wu Jie just got the top scorer in the German Cup and tied for the first place in the history of the league with 14 goals in the Champions League.

If it is not for Asian players who cannot participate in the selection of the Golden Globe Awards, Wu Jie will definitely be able to win this year's Golden Globe Awards.

Next summer, if Wu Jie can lead the Chinese team to appear in the World Cup, then he can get another big exposure.

Puma has readjusted its strategy and is ready to come up with a higher price tag to grab Wu Jie.

Adidas did not dare to neglect any more. Even if this new clause is very harsh, they can only be regarded as a short-sighted pay now.

This is the first good news. In all sports around the world, no athlete has ever signed a huge contract worth more than one million dollars per year.

Wu Jie has broken another world record. Now he should be considered the richest man in the mainland?

If not, then he has second good news.

Wu Jie did not know whether it was because of a performance on German TV that the Polygram headquarters in Germany came to the door again the next day.

MSM has already talked with PolyGram once, but at that time, the two parties could not reach agreement on some contract contents.

This time Wu Jie has composed two new songs that will surely become the best-selling singles in Europe. It is so amazing that her creative ability makes PolyGold finally decide to make concessions on some treaties.

However, PolyGram requires both parties to sign a confidentiality contract, and neither can disclose the contents of the contract.

Wu Jie knew that PolyGram had made a lot of concessions on him, so the content of the contract could not be circulated, otherwise the international singers under PolyGram would be rebelled.

First of all, this contract does not require him to set tasks, that is to say, Wu Jie wants to produce three records a year, and it is no problem to produce one record in three years. In short, everything is in his heart.

In addition, it is on the record sales share, which was one of the biggest differences at the time.

Wu Jie requested a 25% share of global sales, and the production, publicity, and distribution of records were all in charge of Polaroid.

This means that he only cares about the creation, and the rest of the links are contracted by Polygold.

But in the end, for every dollar sold, he had to take away 2 cents and 5 cents directly from it.

At first glance, this percentage does not seem to be much, but to understand the cost of producing records, global publicity and distribution are all links to burn money, and then distributors around the world also want to draw a third of their profits.

In this way, the 25% share requested by Wu Jie can be called a lion's mouth. No one has ever signed such a contract that makes the record company more like a part-time job.

It is not easy to calculate how much PolyGold can earn under such a contract, but Wu Jie’s account is easy to calculate~lightnovelpub.net~Michael Jackson sold almost 100 million records in the 1980s. If the price of each 12-inch LP record in the 1980s is 10 dollars, it is one billion dollars in global sales.

There are so many songs in Wu Jie’s database that can be copied. It’s not difficult to sell 100 million records in the next ten years. Isn’t it terrifying to look at the 25% share?

Of course, PolyGold also has requirements to promise such a contract.

They need to sign a long-term contract with Wu Jie for 8 years, and automatically get Wu Jie's exclusive rights to release each album for 20 years during the contract period. This time starts from the first day of record release.

Wu Jie agreed to this condition, because he knew that the overlord of the recording industry in the next ten years was PolyGram, and this contract was a win-win for him.

After the signing of these two major contracts, Wu Jie began to focus on China.

Chen Haonan and Ruda, they should also emerge.
