Chapter 28

"Your throat and vocal cords are the best instruments!"

When he said this, Max Martin looked at Martin in amazement, as if he were looking at the most precious work of art in the world.

"There is no need to use any musical instruments to match it, which will destroy the most primitive and pure feeling you express with your voice. How do you say there is a Chinese saying, draw a snake and then add feet to it?"

"Superfluous!"Martin suddenly said a Chinese sentence

"What?"Marx didn't understand

"That’s the original Chinese version of what you just said."

"Wow, Martin, you can also speak Chinese, that’s really cool.

After a heartfelt compliment, Marx continued:"Martin, do you need a break, or should we officially record now?""

"Come on now, there are five songs in total, all recorded today."

If someone else had said this, Marx would definitely say that he didn't respect music.

But Martin's performance just now completely conquered him.

This boy's singing for more than five minutes just now had no flaws at all, and there was no need to pause or correct it at all..

If Martin can maintain this state, one day is enough.

Can Martin maintain this state?

Of course he can!

Although his vocal cords are not fully developed and his voice is not in the best condition yet, with just five pieces of music, he The current mana can fully support it without worrying about damaging the vocal cords.

The smoothness is unbelievable!

Marx even believes that compared to Martin, the Backstreet Boys"do not understand" music at all. The five songs were recorded quickly.

Marx suddenly asked:"Martin, do you have a publisher? Do you need me to introduce it to you? I have a good relationship with Universal Music."

Martin saw Aunt Nancy shaking her head slightly from the corner of his eye, so he said:"It's not urgent, I have to discuss it with my parents."

"Well, I don’t care. I have only cooperated with Universal once."

The cooperation between Max Martin and Universal originated from the production of the Backstreet Boys album.

The Backstreet Boys' first album of the same name"Backstreet Boys", produced by Max, was a hit in North America and Europe, and the single""Weve Got It Goin On" has reached No. 32 on the American Music Billboard and No. 54 on the English Music Chart, and is gaining momentum.

Therefore, Universal Music Group recognizes Max Martin's production capabilities and has reached a long-term cooperation intention.

Max I feel that if I recommend Martin to Universal Music, the other party will give me some face.

…………

On the way back.

Martin glanced at his bodyguard Gordon, who was concentrating on driving, and turned to ask:"Aunt Nancy, why don't you agree to him? Universal Records has a strong distribution capability, right?"

In Martin's memory, the future Universal Records seems to have become the world's largest music company. The largest record company, accounting for 25% of the global music market share.

Even though Universal Music is not that strong now, it is still recognized as a giant in the industry!

Nancy smiled and said:"Universal is indeed very strong, but they can't invest too much for you, a newcomer. After all, you are not one of theirs, and Marx's personal connections are also limited."

"Oh, so Aunt Nancy, you know other record companies?"Martin's eyes lit up.

"No, not me, but your father. He has a good relationship with Tommy Mottura, the president of Columbia Records"

"That's it. Martin smiled. The distribution capability of Columbia Records is no worse than that of Universal. No, it is even better.

After all, this company owns such super celebrities as Michael Jackson and Mariah Carey. Don’t ignore the role of superstars in promoting record companies. Just one Michael Jackson made Columbia Records’ distribution capabilities in Europe surpass its old rival Universal Records. After returning to the hotel,

Martin immediately called his father The phone.

Grant on the other end of the phone was shocked:"So you went to London and not only met Ms. Dayna, but also became her brother?"

"Yes, yes, dad, it's not important, let's talk about the record."

"How is Ms. Deanna now? Is she still in a low mood? Are he and the antique dealer still together?"

"Sister Dayna is in a good mood. She and the antique dealer have broken up. Please, can we talk about business now?"

"Okay, okay, I'll talk to Motura, but I can't promise anything"

"Please, Dad, I am your biological son, and you don’t want to see my hard-earned money being cheated!"

"Hard-earned money, huh?"

"You laughed at me, I want to tell grandpa!"

"Wait, I will work hard to get your treatment. Really, can you please stop using this trick?"

"Hehe, as long as it works"

"Martin, you really should have an agent and stop troubling Aunt Nancy and Dad with everything."

"Okay, Dad, when I get back to Los Angeles, I'll find one"

"No need, I've already found it for you."

Martin:"……"

"who is it?"

"You'll know when you come back"

…………

Three days later, Martin's five pure musical demos were recorded.

After Martin listened to it once, he readily convinced Aunt Nancy.

Then the aunt and nephew took a plane back to Los Angeles.

At his home in Los Angeles, Martin met with his agent, CAA senior partner Jeff Raymond

"Hello Martin, it's an honor to serve you."

"Hello, Mr. Raymond"

"Just call me Jeff. After all, we will be working together for a long time in the future, so you can be more casual in the title."

"Okay Jeff, let's get started."

"What?"

"Work"

"Now?"

"That's right. Martin smiled and took out a stack of manuscripts from a small bag:"Jeff, this is a new script I wrote. Maybe you can find investment from the film company for it. Of course, the leading actor must be me.""

Jeff looked at the finished manuscript in surprise,"Can I take a look first?"

"sure!"

Jeff lowered his head to read. The name of the script was"The Sixth Sense."

When he turned to the first page, Jeff's eyes lit up. The shots were so professionally drawn.

Soon, he was immersed in the story..Half an hour later, Jeff raised his head, the surprise in his eyes became even stronger

"Martin, this is a good script and I will find a good buyer for him."

"main character"

"Of course, the protagonist must be yours"

"Oh, by the way, Jeff, Random House is also interested in publishing my second novel, and the treatment is up to you."

"Can I ask how you were treated when Kung Fu Panda was published?"

"10% royalty"

"Wow, 10%? So this number is the bottom line for this new work."

Martin smiled,"You understand me."

"Martin, I actually don’t think you need to rush to publish your second novel. The sales of"Kung Fu Panda" are getting better and better now. Maybe you can wait until June after the book and movie are heavily promoted before publishing your second novel. is the best time"

"Um? Martin was silent for a moment, and then smiled,"Jeff, I like your suggestion. Please bring this request to Random House as well.""

"Don’t worry, I will. It’s my job to fight for the interests of my employer."

Not only is Martin satisfied with Jeff, Jeff is also satisfied with Martin.

This little genius has unlimited development potential - and it is not limited to the film and television industry. He may become his most important client in the future!
