American Entertainment: Taylor Swift wrote a song for the beginning

Chapter 63: One Song, Two Eats (Three Updates, Please Read)

"Ha, you put out the contract so quickly. Do you think Ryan is a newcomer and easy to bully? If you want to sue, you're welcome at any time." Taylor sneered.

"Country girl, don't be so impulsive. This will not do your boyfriend any good! I don't care, but he can't wait at home for a year or two." Scooter smiled.

If the relationship really breaks out, the civil lawsuit will take at least one or two years. During this period, Ryan will not be able to get any publicity. All his activities will be secretly terminated, commonly known as being "frozen".

"So what? I can give him a job opportunity, or at worst I can support him." Taylor fought back, eager to protect her husband.

"It's okay, we can renegotiate. I'll talk to Scott in person." Ryan shrugged, showing a concession.

He is not as impulsive as Taylor. To put it bluntly, Scooter is doing it for money. If the two record companies continue to cooperate and Scooter makes money, the problem will naturally be solved.

"Ryan is the smart one. Little girl, you should learn from him." Scooter turned and left.

"He is really not a good guy. His true colors are revealed so quickly." Taylor muttered in Ryan's ear.

"Just a pure businessman." Ryan shook his head.

Taylor did overreact just now. Firstly, she was usually the dominant one in the big machine. Secondly, she was afraid that Ryan would be wronged. Thirdly, she was too young to keep her cool.

Ryan and Taylor left the recording studio and returned to Big Machine. Outside his office, the secretary informed them that Scott had left and went to another company under his name.

Taylor is currently the only artist signed to the Big Machine, while Scooter has signed other artists to several other record companies.

Reina had no choice but to call Scott, and it rang many times before the other party answered.

"Is there a problem with the recording?" Scott asked on the other end of the phone.

Ryan vaguely heard a woman's voice, most likely Scott was hanging out with one of his singers in broad daylight.

Ryan talked about the specific situation: "Now we have to renegotiate..."

Ryan proposed a profit-sharing ratio that is commonly used in the industry. It seems like a concession, but in fact this cooperation is different from the previous ones. The new version was produced and recorded at Blackbird Studios, the singer is Taylor, and the publicity and promotion is also done by Big Machine. In other words, Schoolboy Records did nothing but took a considerable portion of the profits.

"Scout asked you to come over to talk, right? Ryan, it's not that I don't want to accept it, but isn't this kind of division too unfair to us?"

"Aren't you worrying about how to deal with Walmart? If you put this song in the EP, everything will be solved. It's better to make less money than to be stuck in a deadlock, right?" Ryan said.

"So that's what you were thinking." Scott sneered, knowing that he had been tricked, and then whispered, "Forget it, it's Taylor's fault for being so devoted to you."

Then Taylor took the phone and said that he would only take a symbolic portion of the song's revenue, which would belong to the creator, and give most of it to Ryan.

As a result, the revenue sharing of this song became like this:
The original electronic music version continues to be fully produced by Schoolboy Records.

The new unplugged version was a collaboration between Schoolboy Records and Big Machine, with the net proceeds split equally.

Scooter achieved his goal and made a small profit out of nothing.

Scott and Taylor were the losers in this collaboration.

Ryan became the biggest winner of this collaboration, as he could get both a share of royalties from Schoolboy Records and a share of creators' share from Big Machine, getting two benefits from one song.

That night, Ryan met Scooter at the hotel.

He was alone when he came, but in the hotel room, there were two young women with good looks and figures around him, obviously high-end call girls.

"You two, get out." Scooter took out a much larger tip than usual from his wallet. The two girls cooperated well and held the money in their mouths and left slowly.

"Give them some, and they will love you more than any other woman in the world. Give them more, and they can play more roles. Dollars are the real bottom line in this world, so sometimes I have to do something." Knowing that Ryan brought good news, Scooter's attitude softened a lot. Hearing Ryan reveal the details, Scooter couldn't help but smile: "You did a good job. If you hold on to Taylor, you will be halfway to fame."

Scooter thought that Taylor had forced Scott to give in.

"Please help me contact someone, Aloe Blacc." Ryan said.

The sense of sight informed Ryan of the original author. Ryan had checked online before coming here. This Alan is currently a soul singer in New York. As for the weird name AVICII, a search turned up a lot of Buddhist-related pages. The word originally refers to the hell. Obviously, this AVICII, like Martin and the Belgian brothers before him, has not yet made his debut.

"Do you know him?" Scout asked immediately.

"I just listened to his songs and thought he was suitable to sing the original version of "Wake Me Up," said Ryan.

"No problem, I'll send someone to contact him. This song is yours, so you have enough rights in personnel selection. As long as I can make money, I won't interfere." Scooter nodded.

Considering that he had never forced his way into Ryan's team before, Ryan trusted him for once.

·
Ryan stayed in Nashville for the remaining days, successfully producing and recording the unplugged version of "Wake Me Up", while waiting for news from Scooter.

"Do you think this song will be a hit?" Taylor and Ryan left Blackbird Studios together.

"Probably." Ryan hugged Taylor. The two of them stayed together during working hours during this period and were inseparable.

"Ryan, you're getting better and better!" Taylor said suddenly, his expression a little flustered.

She is arrogant and thinks that her songwriting ability is better than Ryan's. If Ryan's songs perform better on the charts, wouldn't that be a slap in her face?

They have been together for quite a while, and Ryan has already "figured out" her temper both physically and psychologically. Taylor doesn't care about those small details, and even acts as a shadow girlfriend, but the prerequisite is that he must go along with her on one thing, and that is her singing career, which is the most important source of her self-confidence.

On stage and when meeting fans, she maintains absolute confidence, even self-confidence.

If this point is also defeated, then Taylor Swift will no longer be the original Taylor Swift.

As they were walking, the two came to the parking lot. Ryan saw a brand new, unregistered white Lincoln Navigator, but did not find the private car she usually drove.

"What are you looking for? Your crappy Dodge is too small. I can't even stretch my legs straight. You should get a new car." Taylor suddenly took out Lincoln's car keys from his bag and stuffed them directly into Ryan's hand.

"You bought it?" Ryan was surprised and happy.

Taylor nodded: "You can drive this car to pick me up from now on."

It turned out that she and Ryan had the same idea, and this time she generously donated money to reward Ryan.

"Why buy this one?" Ryan walked around the car. The full-size large SUV is visually very domineering. As a direct competitor of the Emperor, the Lincoln Navigator pays more attention to comfort. The third and second rows can be folded down completely flat, not to mention two people, even four people can lie down with more than enough space.

"I like big ones that are comfortable to sit on." Taylor said casually.

Their family all likes this kind of big car, Cayenne, Range Rover, Sequoia are similar models. Taylor also doesn't like to ride fast.

When he noticed Ryan turning his head and staring, Taylor realized that his words might have another meaning and he couldn't help but blush.

"Go test drive?" Ryan said with a wicked grin.

Taylor rolled his eyes at Ryan, but his face turned even redder.
