Chapter 799: Dependency
So songwriters are actually more dependent on singers.
When you see each other, it is normal to take the initiative to show goodwill.
Within the industry, between singers and songwriters, there is such a relationship.
There are transactions, interdependence. On the surface, of course, it is good to be kind, but in reality, singers don't necessarily need to have a good attitude towards songwriters.
Of course, this situation is also relative. Fang Wenshan in the previous life, Qing Shao in this life. Even if everyone thinks that the status in front of top singers is just like that. But for newcomers, they are still god-like beings.
Because whether it is Fang Wenshan or Xu Qing, they actually have the ability to create stars.
And for those newcomers, the most urgent thing is to meet such a nobleman.
Shen Dawei and others are really treating Xu Qing as an idol now. Whether it is in the film industry or the music industry, Xu Qing himself has already shown a strong star-making ability.
But at the end of the day, everyone is also an insider. Some of the general rules in the industry are generally clear.
is like the relationship between singers and songwriters, Shen Dawei and others are very clear.
Normally, it is the writer who relies more on the singer.
Especially when the singer reaches the level of Lin Junjie, the situation should be even more so. After all, in the past, when you were a rookie singer, you paid to make an appointment with others, and others didn't necessarily give you face.
In the final analysis, all similar industries actually have similar rules. Why can you be a songwriter and get a high price for a song? After all, it's because the works you have come up with before are generally good.
That's why now, someone will ask you to sing at a high price.
Well-known singers ask for songs, if you give the quality of the songs. In the end, while other singers were unhappy, your grade was actually lowered.
In the final analysis, the value is actually floating. It is necessary to be able to come up with excellent songs for a long time, so that the value can be stabilized at a relatively high height.
But if you write a song for a newcomer, if it becomes popular, of course it's good. What if there is no red?
was originally a very good song, but because the singer's level was not good, he didn't sing it well, and the final market response was not very good. The last words are to affect the reputation of this songwriter.
This happens a lot, and the value naturally drops.
Therefore, when the songwriter industry is new, he will frequently write songs for new singers. But after the status is raised, I really have to start cherishing my talents.
So after songwriters become famous, they often don't write songs for newcomers. Unless the price is high.
In fact, it's not that they don't want to buy songs, in the final analysis, they are afraid that they will smash the signboard and cause their worth to decrease.
In such a situation, the songwriter is actually highly dependent on the singer. After other singers become popular, they have money, and they can ask anyone to ask for a song. There are more people in the country who can write good songs, and don't you have to hang yourself from a tree?
So the actual situation is that most of the time, it has to be the situation where the songwriter takes the initiative to show favor to the singer.
On the surface, the singer will guarantee a friendly attitude, but in short, both parties know what status the other person is.
Therefore, if it is said that the singer needs help, the songwriter will generally do his best to do it.
It's rare that when a songwriter needs help, a singer is willing to do his best to help.
But this time, Xu Qing looked at an entertainment company. There is a singer below who has no singing foundation, so Xu Qing sent it to Lin Junjie. As a result, Lin Junjie is really willing to spend his precious time to cultivate this rookie singer. After Xu Qing explained the situation, Shen Dawei and the others were really shocked and a little speechless.
He didn't know that the relationship between Xu Qing and Lin Junjie was no longer the relationship between ordinary songwriters and singers.
At the beginning, Xu Qing and Lin Junjie were indeed such a simple cooperation. That's right, Xu Qing directly gave Lin Junjie a whole set of excellent songs, which really showed great talent.
But in the end, at that time, Xu Qing was not popular at all. In such a situation, Lin Junjie gave a price of 80,000 yuan per song, which is really face-saving.
said that at that time, Xu Qing and Lin Junjie did not owe anything to each other at all. At that time, Xu Qing needed Lin Junjie's help. If it's too cumbersome, Lin Junjie will shirk it.
In the final analysis, even Lin Junjie didn't know how good these songs Xu Qing could be at that time.
Whether a song is good or not is not so simple to hear. To put it simply, a good musician, when he hears a song, can indeed confirm that the song is not bad.
But how good it is, it's not so easy to determine in advance. In the end, it is still necessary to pass the test of the market to determine this.
Lin Junjie and the team around him had such an attitude at that time. Knowing that the songs Xu Qing gave were good, I really admired Xu Qing's talent. That's why I will give the price of 80,000 songs.
But to put it simply, I didn't expect it. Lin Junjie will become a sensation directly because of Xu Qing's album, and instantly become a first-line singer. In the first half of this year, Lin Junjie's topicality surpassed more than half of the singers and queens.
You can write excellent songs, and you can write phenomenal songs. The meaning is not the same!
If Xu Qing can only write excellent songs, that's right, Lin Junjie doesn't look for you Xu Qing, and he can find someone else to write songs. At the end of the day, there are really too many people in the country who can write excellent songs.
But when it comes to phenomenal songs, it's different.
What is a phenomenon? At the very least, it is the height of being able to enter the top three of the weekly on-demand list. And songs like "A Thousand Years Later" can also set off a Chinese style in the music world and bring more attention to Lin Junjie.
And like Adu, the level of the three songs is actually not as high as "A Thousand Years Later". But because it fits Adu's unique voice to the extreme, in fact, the heat has reached an explosive height.
Lin Junjie's current words, except for "A Thousand Years Later", in fact, the popularity of several other songs is similar to Adu's three most classic, and there is no obvious completion and transcendence.
After all, Xu Qing here, in a year's time, what he came up with is not a phenomenal song. It's at least four or five songs.
