Chapter 344: Reserve Price
The circle of songwriting generally has a fixed team. In the final analysis, Xu Qing and Lin Junjie have a good relationship. At the beginning, you can ask for a high price, and in the future, you can also ask for a share of the profits.
If it is a pure newcomer, or even a songwriter who has a certain reputation in the industry, it is not so simple to directly ask for copyright and share.
The price of a song is tens of thousands, which is definitely a high price. Most cultural people are not so greedy. With such an income, you can actually be satisfied.
Don't say 80,000 yuan for a song, it's 20,000 for a song. Ten songs is 200,000, and 100 songs is 2 million.
I work ten hours a day, and I don't write a few hundred words of his lyrics every hour?
If you calculate it, it seems that it is not far to reach the peak of life.
Of course, this is also a joke. In reality, this is certainly not the case.
But in general, a direct buyout is really the most common way of cooperation.
And the situation of about singing is not so simple.
In the case of a song, first of all, the people on both sides have a certain understanding of each other, and then they are introduced by acquaintances and linked together.
Most of the time, it's not just a matter of writing songs. The party who buys the song has to make a request, whether it is an old-fashioned song or a rock song or something. How fast is the pace, and what kind of emotion is expressed?
After the party who buys the song makes such a request, the songwriter can start to find a way to tailor such a song for the singer. In addition to meeting these requirements put forward by the singer, it must also match the timbre of the singer.
Otherwise, other singers used to sing in a soft bass tone, and it would be inappropriate for you to suddenly bring out a "Everest" or something like that.
The song is a good song, give the money.
People want you to have a good song, and the tone may not be able to control it.
So it's not so simple to make an appointment.
You take out the song and make the singer feel good. The singer thinks it's good, so he can call the final payment.
If the singer thinks it's still a little inappropriate, the songwriter has to find a way to continue to revise it until the singer is satisfied.
No way, the rules of the trade are like that. Other singers take out tens of thousands of dollars, you can't just take out a piece of garbage and send it away, right?
Therefore, to achieve high quality, high compatibility with the singer, and the singer himself is satisfied, etc., this cooperation can be regarded as the end.
If you think the singer is nitpicky, then just terminate the contract. Just get the money back and never work together again. Don't make a fuss.
If your ability to write songs is really above the level, you won't have to worry about other customers in the future. If you cooperate well with the next customer, you will have a good relationship in the future, and maybe this one singer's task will be enough for you to live a nourishing life.
For most songwriters, that's the case.
So when Lin Junjie heard that Xu Qing wanted to make quick money, he couldn't help but be a little entangled.
At the end of the day, if the market is doing badly. It's not going to be good in the future.
But Xu Qing is confident in his own ability. Well, you have so many songs in your memory. Xu Qing really tried his best to take it out, but he might not be able to finish it.
Isn't it just about asking for a song, you make a request. Xu Qing directly found a suitable one for you in the music library in his mind.
When Xu Qing has memorized songs, in fact, they have been proven in the previous life, and they are relatively good.
What other requirements are there that Xu Qing can't satisfy? If Xu Qingming comes up with a good song, or really encounters a nitpicky situation, Xu Qing will really not be able to wait.
The songs I took from the King and Queen of Heaven are not good enough. Do you have the ability to write it yourself?
Therefore, Xu Qing is not entangled at all, whether he can meet the customer's standards. It's just that he didn't want Lin Junjie to sound like how arrogant Xu Qing was, so Xu Qing said such a way to play.
Several good songs sold to Lin Junjie were all priced at 80,000 yuan. At that time, Xu Qing was completely unknown in the circle.
But now, an album of "No. 89757" has made Lin Junjie popular, and the vest of "Qing Shao" has also become popular.
Before, Lin Junjie had already told Xu Qing that someone had already offered a price of 100,000 yuan and asked Lin Junjie to help him make an appointment with Qing Shao.
Let's put it this way, what Xu Qing took out must be a high-quality product. But Xu Qing can foresee that those singers, when they have already taken out 100,000 yuan, must hope to squeeze all the surplus value of Xu Qing.
Even if Xu Qing came up with some song of the king and queen at the beginning, when the other party saw it, he might not be able to help but be amazed. But because Xu Qing took it out too simply, they would still think that Xu Qing didn't do his best.
The current situation is that Xu Qing doesn't have time to waste time like this with these people.
directly with a reserve price of 50,000 yuan, and then according to the results of the list on which list, Xu Qing was given a bonus to win the final payment.
That's the perfect situation.
In fact, Xu Qing is also thinking about himself.
That's right, Qing Shao is now, in the circle, his fame has indeed risen. But in the end, even if the song is good enough in just a few days, because the time is too short, the other party may still have concerns.
Under such circumstances, it is obviously inappropriate for Xu Qing to directly ask these people for the 100,000 yuan that Lin Junjie said before. Even if the song is good enough, not necessarily how many people will buy it.
Even the few people who had already told Lin Junjie about the price before, their original idea was to make their own requests, and let Xu Qing spend a lot of time tailoring it for him.
Now that Xu Qing has come up with a new work so quickly, they may have a feeling of being dealt with.
Therefore, it is not appropriate to ask for 100,000 directly, but with Xu Qing's current fame, the reserve price of 50,000 is really not too high.
In Xu Qing's album for Lin Junjie, there are at least four or more songs, and their value is far more than this price.
So 50,000, the other party should be able to consider it. And if you are in a place like Kujiu.com, how long will it take to hit the top 15 of the weekly list. If you can really reach this level, 80,000 yuan will definitely make a lot of money.
Therefore, Xu Qing's bonus requirements will be set at such a level. If you play the leaderboard, you will move to a higher position. Maybe Xu Qing will be able to get a more considerable final payment.
Xu Qing is really in a hurry to use money now. But Xu Qing really doesn't want such an excellent song in his previous life to be dusted in his own hands. In this way, the final total price will not be too low.
