Chapter 505: Make a New Project
In order to encourage Su Dingyu to make trouble, Jiang Xinwei also gave him an idea: "You immediately send someone to contact Wen Nianshi, Zhou Yi and Liu Rong of Xiangjiang and sign them to your website." Then publish it and tell netizens that they will release a new song on New Year's Day, and it will only be played on your audition site. ”
Su Dingyu was dumbfounded and asked, "New Year's Day to launch a new song? How do I know if they have a new song? Now it's only three days before New Year's Day, is it too late?"
Su Dingyu didn't think about whether he could sign a contract and how much money he needed to sign a contract, because he was not bad for money, even if he smashed the singer he hoped to sign a contract.
Jiang Xinwei said proudly and coaxingly: "Grass! Have you forgotten me? I am a professional writer of pop songs, the first classic." Even if they don't have a new song on New Year's Day, and I let them sing what I wrote, they won't release it?...... , boy, do you have to remember my good, for your career, Lao Tzu is willing to dedicate, what are you still talking about?"
Su Dingyu didn't follow him stinky fart, but asked worriedly, "What if their new song is not good?"
"Doesn't sound good?" Jiang Xinwei's eyes widened, looking like he was going to eat people, and said angrily, "You don't believe Lao Tzu? Besides, don't I want you to hire a powerful singer now? Even if they hum a few words, their fans will buy it. Go ahead and do it, I'll regret it when it's late, and I'm too lazy to write. I write one song that is missing. ”
Su Dingyu was about to call his subordinates, and suddenly said, "Still no!"
Jiang Xinwei was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why not?"
Su Dingyu said: "Zhou Yi and Liu Rong can only sign one, and the two of them are having a conflict." Seeing Jiang Xinwei's dazed look, he said, "You guy is a musician...... You don't know anything about the music scene. Last month, Liu Rong's good friend Guo Wenwei released an album, and the time has been announced, but Zhou Yi then released the album on the same day, and also chose the scene of the press conference in Xiangjiang, at the door of Guo Wenwei's record company.
Jiang Xinxu's eyes lit up and asked, "Is there anything else?" I signed Guo Wenwei in, and then asked them to launch new songs on our audition site at the same time. How appealing this is, it's better than artificial hype. ”
Su Dingyu was surprised and asked, "Is this good? Will the other party agree to reconcile?"
Jiang Xinwei asked rhetorically: "Why do you want to reconcile? Besides, how can you conclude that they are not doing this for hype? Do you really think they are fighting in the ring?" Suddenly, a new idea popped up in Jiang Xinwei's mind, and he said, "By the way, we can also build a popularity ranking and rank them based on the number of downloads on our website." In addition to them, sign another ten or eight ones that are a little famous, but it's better not to surpass them, and also to sing whatever song they want. ”
Su Dingyu asked suspiciously: "What is the purpose of building this chart? Do you want other singers to run over this chart and cry and ask us to sign a contract with them? Impossible! The influence of our website is too small, even if it ranks first, how much can it increase their fame? Maybe they are worried that the ranking here will not affect their popularity, but they will not come." ”
Jiang Xinxu said: "Not necessarily. Our website is not well-known now, and it may not be in the future. Besides, there are many ways we can encourage them to come and compete for this list. For example, if we reward the top 10, for example, our company spends money to promote the top 10 on other famous websites or TV stations, can they not be impressed?"
Su Dingyu asked in surprise: "Are you still going to make a big move? Just a trial website, how much movement can you make? Is this good for us? We won't charge money from every netizen who downloads music, right?...... I know what, I never pay for music downloads. ”
Jiang Xinwei looked at him with disdain and said, "You are really picky, you are a billionaire, and you actually listen to other people's singing in vain." I'm also telling you plainly that we have to pay to listen to our songs. Netizens can choose to become regular users, paid users, and VIP users. Ordinary users can only listen to a few old songs, and paid users listen to new songs according to a fixed monthly fee and a single song payment. The reason why I started this trial website is to make netizens feel that there is no free lunch in the world, whether it is listening to songs, playing games, or using software, you have to pay. ”
Jiang Xinwei pretended to be righteous and awe-inspiring and said: "Only when everyone forms this habit and everyone respects copyright, can our country form a better atmosphere for innovation and a better atmosphere for scientific research." Young people will calm down and study, because they know that if they produce results, they will make a fortune!"
Jiang Xinwei felt these words, in his previous life, he felt that everything was good, but the atmosphere of innovation was not enough, and few young people were willing to calm down and carry out hard scientific research, only envy those actors and Internet celebrities who make money every day, and only worship those real estate tycoons who use policies to make a windfall, but they are disdainful of scientists.
Everyone grins at the use of pirated copies without spending money, but they don't know that researchers are dripping blood, which also makes many people reluctant to become researchers.
In fact, cultivating the payment awareness of netizens is not as difficult as people think, and one site has been very successful in the last life, and millions of readers have voluntarily paid for it.
Su Dingyu has one of the biggest advantages, that is, once Jiang Xinwei said that he was moved, he no longer questioned it, and immediately acted resolutely.
No, in just two days, he personally led people to travel between the capital and Xiangjiang, signed Wen Nianshi, Zhou Yi, Liu Rong and other famous powerful singers, and also signed Guo Wenwei, Hu Yan, Zhou Yan, Du Qingqing and other youth idol singers, and then ran to Jiang Xinwei to urge singing.
Because Jiang Xinwei took the initiative to agree to write new songs for Wen Nianshi, Zhou Yi, and Liu Rong. And these three singers also took a fancy to this, so they agreed to sign the contract. It's just that Su Dingyu said that the songwriter was Wenhui, but he didn't say Jiang Xinwei's name.
The author of all the songs written to Wen Nianshi is Wen Hui, so the name Wen Hui is far more famous in the music world than Jiang Xinwei. But speaking of Wen Hui's words, none of these singers are disrespectful, and none of them are unkind.
Everyone wants to find this seemingly legendary cow man and write a song for himself.
For this reason, Wen Nianshi, the only singer who knew who Wen Hui was, also called to ask if there was such a thing, and when she heard Jiang Xinwei admit it, Wen Nianshi believed that it was true, and she did not hesitate to sign a contract with the Meile branch of Chinasoft Company. However, she put forward a condition to Jiang Xinwei, that is, to ask Jiang Xinwei to write a song with the main theme this time.
Jiang Xinwei thought about it for a while and agreed, just telling her that if she sang the main theme song, she might not be able to get the first place on the list of the Merlot audition website, because another song he wrote had a lot of pop elements and was likely to become popular.
Wen Nianshi also struggled for a long time when she heard this, but in the end she asked Jiang Xinwei to write the song with the main theme, she said: "It doesn't matter, others have surpassed me since they surpassed me, and I have made a lot of money." Besides, you have promised to give me two songs, and when I take those two songs in the future, I will explode and surpass again. ”
Remembering that the Wen family is not an ordinary family, they don't need Wen Nianshi to be too famous, they don't need her to make money, and it doesn't matter if her popularity is a little lower for a while, Jiang Xinwei was relieved.
So, he spent a morning plagiarizing a poem "Into the New Era" for Wen Nianshi, a song "The Most Dazzling National Style" for Liu Rong and Guo Wenwei, and a "Moonlight on the Lotus Pond" for Zhou Yi.
When these three songs were taken to record by three ecstatic singers, Chinasoft announced that it would launch a Merlot audition website on New Year's Day (), and the famous singers Wen Nianshi, Liu Rong, and Zhou Yi will launch their new songs on this website, and the new songwriter Wen Hui!
As soon as the news of Chinasoft Company was released, some people immediately thought of the new product launch conference held in Beijing on New Year's Day, which Feixun Group had said before, so all kinds of brain-replenishing statements and speculations appeared in various media. Various authoritative figures began to spit excitedly on the so-called authoritative explanations, and the arguments or conclusions were even more varied:
"The two high-tech enterprises are dying again, which is the sorrow of our nation. ”
"It is not enough to launch a network switch, and it is not enough to press Feixun Group, because Feixun Group will launch two products, pagers and mobile phones, so Chinasoft will also launch two products. ”
"Is infighting really good? It's a joke for foreigners. ”
"A high-tech company is going to make a trial website, it's purely disgusting. A few college students can do a website, which is really self-defeating. ”
"We can buy tapes, we can buy CDs, what are we going to listen to on your website? ”
"Chinasoft is purely not in business. ”
"The relevant departments should take care of it, and they should not be allowed to compete in such a disorderly manner, which is simply a waste of national resources. ”
"Chinese people just love to fight in the nest, and they have the ability to fight with foreign companies outside. ”
In this matter, these authorities have basically criticized Chinasoft more often, believing that Chinasoft is the main culprit in provoking the war. However, in various forums on the Internet, public opinion is almost one-sided, and they all believe that Chinasoft has backbone, is not afraid of rape, and dares to fight.
Many netizens said that they would like to see Chinasoft's audition website, saying that the current audition website is too fucked, and if you want to listen to a song and wait for half a day, the phone bill will cost a few yuan. They hope this site will change that fucking situation.
There are also many people who say that in order to enjoy good music, they would rather pay to listen to songs. As long as it's a real treat, what's the point of spending some money?
