Chapter 78: The Headmaster's Concern
After dealing with the matter of claiming the prize, it was already early in the morning.
Wei Mingrang updated the latest chapter of the new day by one chapter, and after going up, he looked at the information of applying to add friends.
Ordinary applications Wei Mingrang politely declined, because he was destined to be famous all over the world in this life, and if he passed the application, he would not be able to fit in the list of friends in the future.
But when he saw a message named Ruan Chengjun with the verification information written "Yiting Music Network Editor", Wei Mingrang thought about it for a while and still passed the other party's application.
Originally, Wei Mingrang only passed the application and was ready to contact him again when he was free the day after tomorrow. After all, it's midnight.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he passed the application, Ruan Chengjun immediately sent a message over: "I'm dizzy, it's a big coincidence, you finally passed the application (cry)!"
Wei Mingrang was surprised for a moment, and then replied, "Hello, what's the matter?"
Ruan Chengjun: "I'm the editor of Yiting Music Network, I want to ask if the song "I Believe" is your original, is all the copyright in your hands?"
Wei Mingrang: "Yes. ”
Ruan Chengjun: "Do you have a brokerage company?"
Wei Mingrang: "No. ”
Ruan Chengjun: "That's great! That's right, your song is very popular now, and it has already entered the top 60 on the new song list just uploaded today." We'd like to give you a recommendation, but we'll need you to sign an exclusive license contract with us. ”
Wei Mingrang frowned and replied, "How much do you give?"
Ruan Chengjun paused for a while and said, "I don't know if you know anything about music websites? Needless to say, old songs are basically included on every website, and the rankings are basically more real." But if a new song is to be on the recommendation position and on the list, most of the time it needs to be tackled by the brokerage company. I don't know if you understand that?"
Wei Mingrang: "Hehe, of course I understand." However, I will not give you exclusive licenses, let alone give you money. If you don't like it, I can delete the song and upload it to another website. However, you are not allowed to include my song from now on, or you will see you in court. ”
Ruan Chengjun: "Don't, don't get me wrong, we didn't plan to ask you for money." However, we can't give you a license fee. Now the only source of income for the music network is advertising and the public relations fees of the agency. As the largest Chinese music website, it is already difficult for us to maintain servers and daily office expenses, so we have no money to buy copyrights. So what we mean is that you authorize us, and in exchange, we give you a referral position. And it's not a simple recommendation, it's a big push on the homepage banner, and you can even hang the title of your book "Buddha is the Way". ”
Seeing that the other party said that he could hang up the title of "Buddha is the Way", Wei Mingrang was suddenly moved.
Nowadays, online piracy is rampant, and it is a fool's dream to make money by downloading songs.
Today's singers release songs, and most of them are posted on the Internet just to hit the charts, become famous, and then release albums, provide CRBT downloads, and hold concerts.
There is basically no money to be made on the Internet.
Wei Mingrang is the same, the purpose of copying songs is not to make much money from the Internet, but to become famous, and then feed back the novel.
In the early stage, singing became famous faster than novels, but novels made money faster and steadily.
At present, there is only one song, no concert, no album, and the ringtone is unknown, so it is the most practical to use the song to feed the novel first, and fry the novel to earn manuscript fees.
After all, the novel is going to hit the shelves next Friday.
However, the exclusive authorization Wei Mingrang will not sign. After all, if he wants to be famous, he has to rely on the whole network to forward.
If the time comes, when he hears that he will take the exclusive licensing contract and ask other websites to be taken off the shelves, Wei Mingrang will suffer a big loss.
In the end, after half an hour of negotiation, Wei Mingrang and Ruan Chengjun only reached an ordinary genuine licensing contract, proving that the information provided by Yiting Music Network was not pirated, and Wei Mingrang could not sue the other party, and there was no legal risk when listening.
In exchange, when I heard the promise to give Wei Mingrang a two-day homepage banner, the link was naturally "I Believe", but the cover picture of the starting point "Buddha is the Way" would appear on the picture, giving Wei Mingrang a soft advertisement.
Of course, because he did not get the exclusive authorization, Ruan Chengjun did not have the right to decide on this matter, and he had to report to the boss tomorrow.
After ending the chat, Wei Ming asked him to wash up and go to sleep.
……
The next day, early on the morning of October 8, "I Believe" had already rushed into the top 50 of the Yiting New Song Chart without any recommendations.
And because of the influence of Wei Mingrang's award, as well as some new readers who listened to Wei Mingrang's song and searched for Mingqiao's words, and switched from the post bar to the starting point, the clicks and collections of "Buddha is the Way" have increased more fiercely.
The number of clicks has exceeded 1 million, the collection has exceeded 30,000, and the book review area is very lively, and Wei Mingrang is very happy.
After returning from a morning run and updating the text of a chapter, Wei Mingrang and his roommates went to class for breakfast.
Although October 8 is a Saturday, because of the National Day holiday, October 8 is the first day after the long holiday, and classes are still required.
As a result, as soon as he entered the classroom, Wei Mingrang became the focus.
I came back late last night, and the male classmates who didn't talk to Wei Mingrang, and the female classmates, all congratulated Wei Mingrang.
Even Teacher Yu, who was in the first Mao class, got the news and asked Wei Mingrang before class: "Wei Mingrang, I heard that "I Believe" was written by you?"
Wei Mingrang stood up and said, "Yes, Teacher Yu." ”
Teacher Yu nodded and smiled: "Yes, I listened to it, it sounds very good." I didn't expect that there were students under me who would become singers. ”
Wei Mingrang sneered: "Teacher Yu has won the award, but it is just a work to test the waters." ”
Teacher Yu said: "This is not a test of the waters, it will definitely become a classic song." ”
After speaking, Teacher Yu said to the other students: "Why don't we let Wei Ming sing live?"
The other classmates naturally applauded loudly and coaxed Wei Ming to sing on stage.
So, Wei Ming let him go on stage and sang "I Believe" live with the accompaniment on his mobile phone, which caused many students to sing together, which was very happy.
With the word of mouth of classmates and teachers, the name of "I Believe" and Wei Mingrang have spread more and more widely in Chongqing Technology and Business University, and many people know that there is a first-year student in this school who has created a very good youth inspirational song "I Believe", which has entered the top 50 of the new song list of Yiting Music Network.
Including the principal, Fan Qiming, also learned the news from the secretary.
In the past two years, there has been a group in the music world called Shuimu Nianhua, whose masterpieces "Life with You" and "In Another Country" are very popular.
And Shui Mu Nianhua is not an ordinary singer, but a group that graduated from Tsinghua University.
Therefore, the popularity of Shuimu Nianhua has added a lot of fame to Tsinghua University in the fan group.
Chongqing Technology and Business University was formed by the merger of Chongqing Business School and Yuzhou University only a few years ago, and its reputation is not obvious, and it is applying for 211 schools, but it has not yet been successfully approved.
After hearing the gossip said by the secretary and listening to the song "I Believe" on the Internet, President Fan's heart moved, and he thought of the example of Shuimu Nianhua, and couldn't help but have the idea of using this song to promote Chongqing Technology and Business University, increase its fame, increase the quality of admissions, and increase the early success of the 211 school application.
