Chapter 18: Copyright!
Shao Bin found out during the conversation that this boy, who looked tender and kind, was actually a difficult character.
No matter how he knocked on the side, the other party never showed the slightest tone, and often led his topic astray.
Obviously, today he has an opponent.
"So what are you going to do next?" Shao Bin called for a glass of lemonade.
Li Mu spread out his hands: "I just finished taking the college entrance examination, of course I'm going to go to school!"
Shao Bin's hand shook, and the lemonade was sprinkled on the delicate suit fabric, but he didn't have time to feel distressed, more surprised.
originally thought that Li Mu was eager to get rid of the trainee's contract because he had other plans, if Li Mu said that he wanted to become a freelance musician, or set up a music studio, Shao Bin would accept it.
But I tried my best to get out just to go to school? I always feel like I'm perfunctory!
Li Mu saw suspicion in Shao Bin's eyes.
What's wrong with this society? How can an honest man like him always be suspected? Shouldn't someone review it?
"No offense, it's just that as far as I know, your academic performance was ............ when you were in junior high school After three years, I came back to take the college entrance examination ..........."
Li Mu just smiled faintly: "What if I say I can be admitted to 985 or 211?"
Shao Bin's first reaction was that he was bragging, many top students may not be able to be admitted to such a key college after three years of hard study, let alone a bad student who has dropped out of school for three years.
I don't know why, what Shao Bin saw from Li Mu's smile was absolute confidence, his kind of confidence was not superficial, but like the calmness that had been multiplied by countless successes.
"Can you talk about your understanding of music?" Shao Bin retracted his thoughts, he told himself that he could not be led by the nose, which was a taboo in negotiations.
Li Mu spread his hands: "What is there to talk about music? I'm not an academic, and I can't say anything about music theory, so I won't be asked to improvise a song, right?"
"Little fox!" Shao Bin scolded secretly.
Shao Bin tentatively took out the C-level contract and handed it to Li Mu, and then began to explain.
To be honest, Yuncun's contract treatment is still very lucrative, not only with creative incentive awards, but also with various list recommendations, which is quite attractive to freelance musicians.
But Li Mu just shook his head: "With all due respect, if your company's contracts are like this, there is no need for us to waste time here!"
Shao Bin didn't panic, he didn't even show the hole cards of the A-level contract, because he wasn't sure if Li Mu was really not interested or was "fishing".
"Oh?"
"I only sign songs, not people!" Li Mu said word by word.
..............
Back at the hotel, Shaobin reported the situation to the manager.
"Shaobin, well done! I knew you would do it, and when you came back, I would hold a celebration banquet for you!"
Shao Bin had a bitter face: "Manager, I think it's better to sign someone..........."
The manager waved his hand and said: "No need, you have to remember our purpose, being able to sign these two songs is victory, and how do you know that he is not retreating?
"But ..........."
"Don't be, as long as you don't tear your face, he has a new work in the future, we still have a chance to sign it, what matters now is these two songs, don't go wrong, sign the contract tomorrow. ”
Hanging up the video call, Shao Bin suddenly had a feeling that perhaps because of this decision, Yuncun would have to spend a huge price to make up for it in the future!
............
"By the way, there is one more article to be added to the contract, no matter how many cover versions of these two songs there are, the original singing column must be marked - Chen Xuan, two words!" Li Mu made the final request.
Shao Bin simply agreed.
"Happy working together!"
Shao Bin looked at the smiling face of the young man in front of him, but his face was full of bitterness: "I suddenly feel that I have made a very stupid deal!"
Li Mu shrugged and said noncommittal: "Maybe!"
The content of the contract is basically that Li Mu authorizes "Confession Balloon" and "What I Love Is You" to allow playback, cover singing and paid downloads on the Yuncun Music Platform.
Among them, all the benefits obtained from commercial purposes such as covers belong to Li Mu, and paid downloads need to be shared with Yuncun.
And Yuncun will also carry out large-scale promotion of these two songs.
That night, Yuncun users found that the recently popular "Confession Balloon" and "Love is You" actually have copyrights!
Many users scolded the marketing method of free listening for members, and at the same time gritted their teeth and filled up members.
In two hours, the number of newly registered members exceeded 10,000, but don't underestimate these 10,000 people, now music users are basically dominated by the four major platforms, and the four major platforms also have their own music style tendencies.
These 10,000 people were basically dug up from other platforms, which is particularly rare, and this phenomenon that happened before was basically the work of masters, which shows the charm of these two songs.
And more importantly, the main users of Yuncun's UP, as well as the anchors of Yuncun's live broadcast platform, can cover these two songs.
"Damn, I just found out that the confession balloon has a copyright, no, I want to record a video!"
"What I love is that you also have the copyright, Yuncun I love you!"
"Blowing up the confession balloons, it's a romantic batch!"
"Come and see, Yun Luoluo has come out with a hand-painted version of the confession balloon, and the MV is simply beautiful!"
"Is it true? I searched and looked,, a beautiful batch, sure enough, the combination of music and video is the most perfect!"
"No, I'm crying, why is the ending of the hand-drawn version of the MV so tragic when it's obviously a very romantic song?"
In just one night, hundreds of re-created videos and covers appeared on the Yuncun music platform, attracting a large number of users, and many people who had not heard these two songs before were also heard by the magic sound.
.............
Cool cat, real me, and independence are the four major music platforms that have fallen behind this time, seeing that "confession balloons" and "love is you" harvest users like leeks, and get a lot of economic benefits in this way.
The eyes of the other three platforms are about to explode with envy, but they can't do anything, after all, at the moment when copyright protection is gradually improving, it is a big loss to dare to step on the red line and play the side ball.
"What the hell are you all meowing for? Why is the copyright getting by Yuncun? The same people, others have a way, what about you? a bunch of waste!"
"In just one night! In four hours, these two songs, the single paid downloads exceeded 100,000, 100,000! Open your eyes and see, what are these things? It's users, it's advertising, it's money!"
"In short, I don't care what method you use, find Li Mu's contact information for me within three days, and if you can't find it, get out of here!"
