Chapter 20
Lin Mu quickly rolled down the window and said hello to the class monitor and others. It took a few people to recognize him. A classmate pointed out to him and asked him to pull over and park the car.
Lin Mu parked the car and drove to the door. He hugged and said hello to his classmates. After all, they hadn't seen each other for almost three years. Lin Mu had hardly seen everyone since graduating from high school.
I usually just occasionally chat in the class group, but it was quite touching to see everyone suddenly.
Coincidentally, Zhang Wenbo's voice came from the speakers in the store next to him, first"You at the Same Desk", and then"Brother Sleeping on My Upper Bunk". It seemed that the entire album was about to be played.
This made Lin Mu and several classmates feel even more different. They were chatting and listening to music at the door of the food stall while waiting for the arrival of their classmates.
The classmates came one after another, and it was naturally a lot of fun when everyone met, chatting, and couldn't help but talk about the things they went to school with together.
The song was also very suitable for the occasion, and it made everyone feel emotional for a while. Fortunately, everyone has not entered society yet.
In other words, we have just entered society and have not yet learned the false politeness and pretense in society. We still retain a sense of simplicity and beauty, and there are not so many twists and turns between us.
Because some students were unable to attend the reunion in other places, and some had not been admitted to college and had gone out to work, there were not many people at the reunion this time, and not all of them.
There were only about 20 people, which happened to be almost half of the classmates, and Lin Mu's class originally had only seven girls, but there were more than 30 boys. Coincidentally, not a single girl came to the party today, and all the people who came were boys. classmate.
Everyone was chatting with the classmates around them about each other's current situation, and they were having fun for a while, making everyone feel like they were back in high school.
It was only around two o'clock in the afternoon, too early for dinner, and it wouldn't be good for everyone to sit here and chat.
Lin Mu pulled the squad leader aside and expressed his thoughts. He said to the squad leader,"There are still two or three hours until dinner, so it wouldn't be good for everyone to just chat here." The squad leader told Lin Mu,"This We had a class reunion to prepare for AA, and there were no other activities planned. I just thought that we hadn’t seen each other for two or three years, so I called everyone together to chat."
Lin Mu thought for a while and then said to the squad leader,"Do you think this works, squad leader? Let's find a KTV nearby to sing for two or three hours and then have dinner. I will be responsible for the cost of singing."
The monitor thought for a moment and said,"Okay? Wouldn't it be bad if you were in charge? Isn't it too much for you to pay for the class reunion?"
Lin Mu continued:"It's okay, monitor. I've made some money in the capital. It's okay to invite everyone to sing for a class."
The squad leader thought for a while and nodded and said that would be fine. Then he went to say hello to the owner of the food stall and said that we would come over for dinner later, which would take about three hours.
Then, the squad leader came to the students and said to everyone:"Everyone, get up. Let's go find a KTV to sing for two or three hours before eating. Otherwise, it won't be good to sit here all the time."
A group of more than 20 people came to the KTV not far away, asked for a large private room, and started howling like ghosts.
The KTV service staff brought a lot of water and fruits. The students drank and chatted while singing songs with their arms around each other. Everyone was very relaxed.
Lin Mu discovered that the songs on Zhang Wenbo's album could already be sung on KTV, and the students all liked to request songs from that album.
Whenever the accompaniment comes to mind, everyone can't help but sing along loudly. Lin Mu is the same. He feels very relaxed and in a happy mood.
It seems that I still need to have more contact with people in the future. After all, people are social animals. Although a person is quiet, he is also a bit deserted.
After singing for a while, Lin Mu suddenly remembered his cell phone. He took it out and saw that it was Aunt Zhou calling. Lin Mu went to the bathroom to answer the call.
Aunt Zhou told Lin Mu that last month's song income had been paid into his personal account, totaling more than 160 million, and asked him to check it. The specific bill had been sent to him.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Mu saw a text message reminder from the bank and bill details from Aunt Zhou on his phone, but the KTV was too noisy and he didn't hear it.
Lin Mu took a brief look and found that Zhang Wenbo's album's revenue was calculated based on the cost of 100 million and the sales of 10 million copies. In the future, settlement will be made every month, and an integer will be used for calculation.
According to the contract signed between Lin Mu and the company, Lin Mu and the company shared the income from this album equally, and here he received 110 million in income.
However, you still have to pay personal income tax and creator tax. The creator tax is about 6% and the personal income tax is 20%.
If we look at the proportion of personal income tax that singers and actors pay according to their income levels, Lin Mu's personal income tax will also have to pay 40% of the personal income tax.
However, in order to encourage more original works and increase the enthusiasm of creators, the government requires creators to pay the minimum 20% personal tax.
In other words, the 110 million that Lin Mu received from the income share of the album he wrote will still have to pay a 6% creator tax and personal income tax.
After paying these taxes, he can still get 81.4 million. This income is after paying all the taxes. There is no need to worry about being invited by the tax department to have tea and chat in the future.
Lin Mu received nearly 45 million from the download share of"Huayin".
For songs released on"Huayin", the official will charge a handling fee of 10 cents for each download, and each song downloaded will be charged 1 cent. The remaining 90 cents for each download will be shared equally between Lin Mu and the company..
Among the ten songs,"My Deskmate" is calculated based on 40 million downloads, and"Brother Sleeping on My Upper Bunk" is calculated based on 30 million downloads.
The other eight songs are calculated based on 10 million downloads. The total downloads of the ten songs are 140 million times. Excluding the official 10 cents for each download, there is still 90 cents.
After deducting the cost of 20 million and the creator tax and personal income tax, Lin Mu received about 46.6 million. Within one month of this album, Lin Mu received more than 120 million in income.
In addition to the more than 5 million originally on his bank card, Lin Mu now has 130 million in deposits in his personal account.
Not counting the additional 6.5 million in licensing fees paid by Aunt Zhou, it was only then that Lin Mu realized that releasing an album would bring in money very quickly. From now on, he would receive an income every month, but it shouldn't be too much.
It seems that I need to take it easy in the future. I can't be so high-profile all the time and write an album every now and then. It's not good to be too high-profile.
Lin Mu thought that he would not have time to pick up his little sister from get out of class today, so he called his father and told him where the little sister was going to class and asked him to pick her up and go home.
After putting away his cell phone and leaving the bathroom, Lin Mu continued drinking and singing with his classmates. Everyone had a great time.
When we were almost done playing, the squad leader looked at the time and asked everyone to leave and prepare to have dinner. It was too late to take a taxi back.
Lin Mugang had already gone to buy the order. Twenty or so people spent a total of about four thousand yuan, mainly because they drank a lot of wine. KTV made money by selling money.
When everyone came to the food stall, the owner of the food stall had already started to prepare. When he saw people arriving, he ordered the waiters to serve the food.
The students had been singing for two or three hours and now they were hungry. When the food was served, everyone started to eat. Because they had just drank a lot of wine, no one was drinking anymore. They were just eating and picking up food..
After drinking and eating, Lin Mu went to buy the food in advance. There were three tables of more than 20 people, and the food alone didn't cost much, only two thousand dollars in total.
When the monitor was about to ask the food stall boss how much the total amount was, the boss told the monitor that the guy with the long hair had already paid.
The squad leader came to Lin Mu and asked. He also wanted the students to give money to Lin Mu, but Lin Mu refused.
The class monitor said that Lin Mu paid for today's singing and dinner. I asked my classmates to give him the money, but Lin Mu refused and said that next time I would just let them treat me to dinner.
After the meal, the students took taxis and left, leaving behind Lin Mu, the monitor and a few classmates who had the best fun in school.
Lin Mu wanted to wait for the wine to dissipate before leaving. It was still early at this time, it was not yet seven o'clock, and he would be almost done with the wine in a few hours.
A few people sat down and continued chatting. They planned to stay with Lin Mu for a while, but Lin Mu was embarrassed to make everyone wait for him for too long, so he persuaded everyone to leave.
Lin Mu returned to the car, lowered his seat and squinted his eyes to check the memories in his mind. He was looking at TV series with good reputations and high ratings on the earth.
After spending a few days copying the planning document for the program"Avenue of Stars", Lin Mu was ready to move a few TV series to test the waters.
More than an hour later, Lin Mu's wine had almost dissipated, and he drove back home. It was only around nine o'clock when he got home.
At this time, the grandparents were still awake and watching TV in the living room. Lin Mu put the photo frame and photos he was holding on the table.
Several people took a stack of photos and looked at them. Lin Mu asked them to put the photos into frames, starting with their grandparents and sister-in-law.
He will put his own ones in the back, and when he and the others finish installing them, if there are still photo frames, he will install his own ones. If there are not enough photo frames, he can just buy them later. Tomorrow he plans to send them to his grandparents and sister-in-law.
Lin Mu went to take a shower and came back and sat down to watch TV, drink tea and chat with his family, chatting about today's class reunion and his family's shortcomings. This kind of life is what Lin Mu likes.
At around ten o'clock, the grandparents and little sister went back to the house to sleep. Lin Mu told his parents that he had received a large sum of money today.
However, he did not say the specific amount, only tens of millions, and asked them if they had any place to spend money. If so, he would tell him.
My parents were a little frightened and didn't react for a while. It took a while for them to recover. They both shook their heads and said there was no place to spend money.
As long as their son's money comes from formal channels, they won't worry, and they won't care about anything else.
They already know the source of their son's money. They already know that their son is the songwriter called Woman, and that the good album was created by his son.
They often listen to that album at home, and they like the songs on it very much. For people of their age, the genre of this album is their favorite.
When the two were young, they were also literary youths. As the saying goes, literary youths and folk songs are more suitable.
I think back when my son Gao Shan wanted to apply for Yangyin, they were a little reluctant. According to their ideas, their son should be a teacher like them.
In the end, Lin Mu said that after graduating from Yangyin, he could also become a teacher. Not only could he teach Chinese and mathematics, but he could also be a music teacher. The two finally agreed that their son should apply for Yangyin.
Now looking at their son's achievements, they are really much better than them. They know that their son has grown up and has his own ideas and plans.
There is no need for them to worry about it. The only thing that gives them ideas is when their son can get married and when they can have grandchildren.
