"Zhou Yan suddenly returned to Beijing due to changes in the industry, and the head of the sect hugged and kissed as if there was no one around"

"Zhou Yan returned to Beijing, suspected of jumping to Minghu Culture, Li Qian picked up the airport, and the two hugged each other tightly at the airport"

With such a title, such two people, and absolutely authentic photos, if you put it aside in the past, this must be enough gossip news to make headlines on the entertainment page.

In addition, when "Woman Flower" and "Witch's Tears" were fighting in the market to an inextricable point, this one thing alone was enough for the reporters and editors of the entertainment edition to pull over the sales of the two albums, market responses, industry evaluations, and the past gossip between the little three, etc., all of which were melted into a furnace to form a whole page of pictures and speak.

But now, no.

Sony-related news occupies almost all the entertainment pages. It seems that everyone in the pop music industry has been associated with Sony, and singers with a little success are either rumored to be in contact with Sony, or simply "XX has confirmed to join Sony, and the industry giant has added another big general".

Therefore, in the evening newspaper of the day and the newspaper of the next day, although as many as seven or eight media reported the news that Zhou Yan and Li Qian kissed at the airport, most of them only gave a relatively inconspicuous position, and the largest report only occupied a quarter of the page.

And in this way, most of the reports have also been linked to Sony's recent great changes, although in fact they are purely speculative and nonsense - such as "Zhou Yan confirmed to renew his contract with Sony, Li Qian personally went to the airport to persuade him repeatedly, and the two quarreled fiercely at the airport" and the like, and "Zhou Yan returned to Beijing and laughed and said that her husband and wife followed, Sony has already lost its general" and so on......

Of course, most of these are small newspapers. Big newspapers are not so shameless and purely blindly compiled.

Of course, no matter what, every reader who will turn to the entertainment version still knows one thing, that is: Zhou Yan suddenly returned to Shuntianfu!

And for Li Qian's classmates in the film school, they also understood. Why did Li Qian, who had never skipped class since he entered school for two years, suddenly take a day off.

…………

Sony's huge changes are still fermenting, and the industry is panicking.

In the face of such a storm, it seems that everything has become a little insignificant.

In the midst of the great turmoil in the entire industry, there is probably only one Minghu Culture and other companies that can stand alone. Either they have been poached, or they are always in danger of being poached, and they have to be forced to come up with a high-priced contract and renew the contract with their own singers in advance.

And Minghu Culture, before the three newcomers Rileng, Zhao Yuan and Zhuang Meiyue became popular, it was difficult to say what value they had to be poached, and Rose Power had just signed a contract, and even an album had not yet been released. Although it is favored by the industry, it has not yet proven its strength after all. So I can't do it, as for the four beauties...... No one is stupid enough to dig in.

Although the entire Minghu culture became the second largest company in terms of total album sales among the major record companies in China last year, it only relied on two singers, that is, Liao Liao and He Runqing.

When there was no news of Sony contacting the two of them for a long time. The media have given estimates, and everyone thinks that according to the previous offers made by Sony to other singers, these two people should be poached, even if the emotional factor is not considered. It has to be hemorrhaged, among which Liao Liao is worth at least 30 songs and 60 million, and even Sony must open the price to 80 million in order to really make this national diva tempted, and He Runqing must also be worth 30 songs 50 million to 60 million.

But considering the relationship between Liao Liao and Li Qian, even if Sony comes up with 100 million, Liao Liao probably won't choose to change jobs, and He Runqing also paid for the early termination of the contract with Sony before joining Minghu Culture, and before Li Qian's personal operation, he did usher in the second take-off of his singing career, at this time, let her return to Sony...... Considering Li Qian's kindness to her reconstruction, this price is really not good.

Therefore, after the analysis, everyone was suddenly surprised to find that there is nothing to dig up here in Minghu Culture!

In fact, in the turmoil of the industry, Minghu Culture is indeed sitting firmly in the Diaoyutai, after the mentality of the staff in the company is adjusted, all the work is proceeding steadily step by step, and it seems that it is not affected by the noise and chaos of the outside world.

Under the joint efforts of Liao Liao and He Runqing, Zhao Yuan's new album entered the country rapidly, and under the tutelage of the two queens, Zhao Yuan, who has always been unruly, is also very subservient, and he doesn't dare to blow up his wings at all, and he basically has no ability to blow up his wings.

Zhuang Meiyue's album and Ge Rilen's album have also begun to record.

They are newcomers, and they have no experience in making albums before, and every bit of detail needs to be slowly adjusted and slowly find the feeling, so this matter cannot be rushed, and there is no need to rush.

In addition, the new album of Rose Power has almost completed the song practice, and it is planned to enter the studio recording stage of the album in early June. Of course, Li Qian personally handled it.

It's fast into June.

On Friday, June 2, Xie Mingyuan officially resigned from Sony Records.

On the same day, despite Watanabe's efforts, a considerable number of musicians chose to leave Sony Records. In fact, as early as before and after Sony's press conference, Sony was staring at the singers of the major record companies, and the major record companies were already eyeing Sony's outstanding musicians and producers.

Sony has changed from being dominated by Chinese capital to being dominated by Japanese capital, most of them will stay, but there will always be a group of people who will choose to leave, and those who will choose to leave, are all quite powerful musicians.

These people are no less important to the record company than the famous singers.

Therefore, the major record companies have made moves.

On the side of Minghu Culture, Qi Jie personally led the team, He Runqing, Sun Meimei, Liu Mei, and Li Jinlong were all instructed by Qi Jie to turn around and run around as lobbyists. Even Cao Zhan was so pestered by Qi Jie that she really had no choice, so she could only help her make phone calls, make appointments, treat guests, and eat......

In the end, Li Qian also called Xie Mingyuan.

Those people were either wooed by Xie Mingyuan during his tenure. Either it has a lot to do with Xie Mingyuan, Xie Mingyuan, the boss, makes a sentence, of course, it is more useful than Qi Jie's words.

So, in just two or three days, among the musicians who left Sony Records, except for the top ones. Because there was a non-compete agreement signed on the original contract, within one year of leaving the company, he was not allowed to join a related company to engage in similar work, and the others were quickly divided up by several record companies in the industry.

Producers, musicians, and contracted authors, together, have a total of 14 people who left Sony in this turmoil, and four of them have to abide by the non-compete agreement and cannot be producers for the time being. Of the remaining ten people, Xinda grabbed three, Hua Ge grabbed one, and Minghu Culture grabbed four, one of which is a well-known producer in the industry, a contracted author, arranger, and two. are all well-known sound engineers and sound engineers in the industry.

Of course, that's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that of the four first-class record producers who signed a non-compete agreement with Sony Records, except for one who chose to take a year off before considering coming out to work, the other three people all chose to become the contracted creators of Minghu Culture subsequently.

Yes, it is the creator and the contracted author. And not the producer.

The existence of a non-compete agreement prohibits them from working on record production for any record company for one year, but it does not restrict them from doing other work, and they are now leaving their jobs and losing their jobs. Write a few songs for money to spend, no one can control it.

So, a weekend passed, and the production department of Minghu Culture suddenly increased its strength!

Previously, because of the existence of Li Qian, although the contracted authors of Minghu Culture are limited, and the level of works is also limited, but in the creation of this piece, it has never been a short board, only the production department, has always been restricting the continued development of Minghu Culture, in order to solve this, on the one hand, Li Qian has to work on three or four albums every year, on the other hand, he had to catch He Runqing and Liao Liao's strong men, so as to barely support the current situation.

And now, with the addition of such seven people, in terms of the current number of singers of Minghu Culture, almost overnight, they will be full at once!

Needless to say, the three producers are at the level where they can take the lead alone, frankly speaking, they are all higher than Li Jinlong's strength, and the addition of the two top recording engineers also allows Minghu Culture's existing recording hardware equipment to be fully activated - yes, the three producers signed a contract to be creators, but from the beginning, everyone talked about the work of the producer, and he came to be a producer.

As for the non-compete agreement, as long as the album released within the last year is not signed, what can Sony Records do?

In addition to being unjustifiable, the so-called non-compete agreement has always been difficult to restrain people.

So, that's it, when the outside media is still hyping up Sony's strength, when such a large number of elite-level musicians leaving Sony, it can definitely be called a big blood loss incident, but they are only brought by a word in some reports, unconsciously, Minghu Culture has made up for its last shortcoming.

Monday, June 5th.

It's been another lively week, and it's begun.

On Monday, the sales charts of Dongguan Bookstore were released on time, and the new albums of the two queens continued to lead the list hand in hand.

"Woman Flower" fell slightly to 39,549 copies, although it has dropped a single Thursday 10,000 copies, but it still continues to sit firmly in the first place, in contrast, Zhou Yan, who has just climbed to a new level recently, seems to be a little hotter, "Witch's Tears" only slightly fell 9 copies of sales from last week, with 33,159 sales, ranking second.

To a certain extent, Zhou Yan is gradually narrowing the gap between her and Liao Liao little by little, week by week, and by sales volume.

Three weeks after its launch, the total sales of the two albums at Dongguan Bookstore were 122,970 and 94,290 respectively, and it was almost announced that they had won the double platinum sales of the whole country hand in hand.

In terms of the sales of the singer's new album in the first three weeks, Liao Liao is still the first in the domestic music industry, and the first in a single album. followed by He Runqing and Wuxing Wusu, and then, it was Zhao Xinfu and Zhou Yan's turn.

Therefore, as soon as this sales came out, Zhou Yan's status in the domestic music scene, and her value in the minds of major record companies, suddenly went to a new level - Liao Liao, He Runqing and Zhou Yan, the three most stable divas, Liao Liao and He Runqing can no longer be digged, and the only one Zhou Yan, although it seems that it is not easy to dig, but after all, she has never expressed her position, so even if it is just for the little possibility that the possibility is not very large, it is already worth the high price that major companies have offered for it.

Not only is she very popular, but her albums are also selling more and more than one album, and now, three consecutive weeks of data, has proved that she has the ability to continue to sell well!

Therefore, Xinda took the lead and directly quoted an astonishing high price of 60 million for 30 songs!

According to this price, even if they really sign Zhou Yan, and the new album maintains such amazing sales as "Witch's Tears", they almost have to step on the capital preservation line, and if they want to make money, they can only count on Zhou Yan to take a few more commercial performances or open concerts to make money. However, it is well known in the industry that Li Qian's two women are surprisingly reluctant to take on commercial performances - but even so, Cinda's offer is still extremely firm.

is still the same sentence, as one of the three major record companies in the industry, there is such a big stall under his hands, so many singers, so many musicians, they must have an existence that can carry the flag!

Even if they know that they will lose money if they dig it, they will dig it!

And then, Hua Ge, which has always been with Minghu Culture, to be precise, has a bad relationship with Li Qian, and it actually made a move, and as soon as it was shot, it was a bigger stroke - twenty songs, 55 million!

That's a whopping 2.75 million per song!

All insiders know that this is an ironclad price that will lose money!

In other words, even if the record company can use internal resources to produce albums as much as possible, reduce all expenses as much as possible, and control the cost within a very low range, but after an album is made, it will cost 27.5 million yuan to pay the singer alone, which means that they must sell about 11 million to 12 million copies of the album before they can almost return the cost.

At present, even if Zhou Yan can continue to make efforts to ensure that her next albums are as big and long-selling as this "Witch's Tears", she has not yet reached the level of tens of millions of sales. (To be continued.) )
