Chapter 397: Something from the American Side
Kim Yu-beom's plan is very simple, that is, to grasp the last element of the five elements of the song's success, so as to make the song "Mr." more beautiful and more popular, which indirectly makes Kara get more attention and popularity, produce more bubble popularity, and then turn more bubble popularity into real popularity when the mini album is released at the end.
Actually, this idea is quite simple to say, that is, Jin Yufan is discussing with Hong Shengcheng how to make Kara's popularity increase more, so that Kara himself or the MC company can achieve Cheng dù who can maximize benefits.
So, Kim Yu-beom and Hong Seung-sung spent several days thinking about it, but there was no better way.
When things are at an impasse, Jin Yufan is the soul of the Chinese, so when he is fine, he will pay more attention to the news on the Chinese side on the Internet. Because now Jin Yufan has also established an MC company, which is considered an entertainment person, so he pays more attention to the news and gossip in the Chinese entertainment industry. It was this habit that made Jin Yufan unexpectedly see the information of the Phoenix Legend Combination on the Internet, and suddenly thought of one thing, and his eyes lit up and he had an idea.
Seeing the news of the Phoenix Legend Group, Jin Yufan, as a Chinese, will think of two things, one is the most successful mixed voice group in China, and the other is that there is a divine comedy "The Most Dazzling National Style".
In particular, "The Most Dazzling National Style", which almost monopolized the sound of all squares in China at that time, was the first background music when Chinese aunts danced square dances.
And the song "The Most Dazzling National Style" of Phoenix Legend still has a lot of surprises.
Originally, Phoenix Legend released the song "The Most Dazzling National Style", but at the beginning, the song "The Most Dazzling National Style" was almost not popular, and no one liked it. It can't compare to the classic songs of the Phoenix Legend at all.
After the release of the song "The Most Dazzling National Style", that is, it was released in 09, almost for more than two years, without the slightest popularity and popularity, let alone any influence. At that time, "The Most Dazzling National Style" still had a little divine comedy there.
But on the contrary. At the end of 2011, because of an international fitness dance trainer, he felt that the song "The Most Dazzling National Style" was the most cheerful and lively, and it was the most suitable song for teaching international fitness dance to students.
So, at a rally, this international fitness dance trainer took 3,000 people to dance "The Most Dazzling National Style" and recorded it into a video, and then posted it on the Internet.
Because 3,000 people danced the song "The Most Dazzling National Style", plus it is still in the United States. Almost all of them are foreigners, the scene is large, there are many people, and there is a special identity of foreigners.
After this video was posted on the Internet, the video became popular, and after the video became popular, what followed was the song "The Most Dazzling National Style", which became popular.
It seems that after 3,000 people danced the song video of "The Most Dazzling National Style". It's like mushrooms after a rain, and countless different versions. Videos with the music of "The Most Dazzling National Style" as the background have appeared on the Internet, and they are all performances by foreigners.
This situation immediately aroused the attention and curiosity of countless Chinese, and then because of curiosity, they also tried to record their own videos, and danced with the song "The Most Dazzling National Style" as background music. It's kind of entertaining yourself, and then put it on the Internet.
Then, the matter could not be stopped, and like a virus that would spread, it began to spread like a crazy spread at an unimaginable speed. In less than half a year, the song "The Most Dazzling National Style", which was originally abandoned by Phoenix Legend himself, began to become popular, and it was a big hit, and the fire was unimaginable.
In particular, the song "The Most Dazzling National Style" was chosen by aunts all over China as the best background music for square dances, and almost instantly, "The Most Dazzling National Style" resounded throughout China, whether it was a big city or a small county, almost all of them had "The Most Dazzling National Style" sounded.
As a result, "The Most Dazzling National Style", a song that has not improved for more than two years after its release and was almost forgotten by the Phoenix Legend itself, suddenly became popular and became a divine comedy and a national song.
From this incident, Jin Yufan saw one thing, that is, the reason why the originally lifeless song "The Most Dazzling National Style" suddenly burst out with such terrifying vitality and energy is because it has reached the last of the five major elements of the song's success.
After the song was released, it was not popular in China, and it had almost no influence and fame, but as it became popular abroad, it was able to be sold back to China, which made the song "The Most Dazzling National Style" become popular and became a divine comedy.
The reason for this, in Jin Yufan's view, is completely out of people's curiosity and patriotism.
Curiosity is the idea of watching others play, so under curiosity, many people will also try to try it themselves. For example, when bungee jumping first appeared, everyone was afraid to play at first, but as more people played, everyone also tried it, and as the number of people playing became bigger and bigger, bungee jumping gradually became a very popular activity.
As for patriotism, this is even simpler, such as the song "The Most Dazzling National Style", the Chinese themselves did not expect that this song would be so popular in the United States.
Nima, even foreigners like it so much, there must be a reason, after all, the culture is different, the song "The Most Dazzling National Style" can be liked by so many Americans, it must not be simple, otherwise, it is absolutely impossible to get so many Americans' like.
Under this idea, countless Chinese began to be curious about "The Most Dazzling National Style", and wanted to see and study what is the place and reason for the song "The Most Dazzling National Style" to make this song like so many Americans.
The attention is high, and the song itself is a catchy and cheerful melody, so the number of people who can sing is gradually increasing.
Especially the influence and role of patriotism, Nima, see no, this song of our country is very popular and popular in the United States, which also makes the Chinese people very proud and proud.
Under pride and pride. Chinese people will also choose to learn and sing the song and dance "The Most Dazzling National Style", no matter how you say it, it is our country's own work, and it is not as good as the welcome Cheng Dù in China as well as abroad, which is unreasonable.
There are even many people who don't think about it so much at all, and simply regard this matter as supporting domestic production, and must make this song popular in China. In any case, it is also a song of our country, so we must not let the popularity and popularity of this song in China be inferior to that of foreign countries.
Of course, there are a large number of people who simply blindly follow, seeing everyone singing this song, everyone says this song is good, then okay, this song is good, I like it too. I also followed along, and everyone sang and danced together.
Therefore, the song "The Most Dazzling National Style" has reached the foreign factor, as the so-called East does not shine in the West, after several years of waiting and a series of accidents, it finally turned over and became a divine comedy. Even the Phoenix Legend is the most popular and the most classic masterpiece.
In fact. This is true not only of Phoenix Legend's song "The Most Dazzling Ethnic Style", but also in South Korea, such as the song "Nobody" by WonderGirls, and the song "Gangnam Style" by PSY.
Although, the original songs "Nobody" and "Gangnam Style". After the announcement of WonderGirls and PSY, it was a huge success in Korea, and it was very popular and popular.
But it is undeniable that if it weren't for many foreigners covering these two songs. The constant imitation of songs, the imitation of the video is too funny, thundering, crazy and shocking on the Internet, will set off a wave of imitation frenzy, will make these two songs completely crazy, so that these two songs out of South Korea, become the whole world is very famous songs.
This is also the so-called foreign factor, otherwise, if the two songs such as "Nobody" and "Gangnam Style" were not directly released in the American music market if there were not countless imitations of various versions, it is estimated that they would not even make waves, and it would not have been successful at all.
This is the so-called foreign factor, when Jin Yufan saw the legend of the phoenix, thought of the successful example of the song "The Most Dazzling National Style", and also had the successful examples of the two songs "Nobody" and "Jiangnan Style" in the Korean music scene, Jin Yufan suddenly had an idea, that is, to let the song "Mr.", also take this path, relying on the huge influence generated abroad, and then sell back to the Korean music scene, making "Mr." The skyrocketing fame has made Kara's attention and influence, including popularity, increase exponentially.
It is no exaggeration to say that the song and dance of "Mr." itself has the quality and potential to become a divine comedy, and Jin Yufan firmly believes that as long as he operates it himself, then "Mr." may become a divine comedy of the whole body, and even in terms of influence in the whole world, it will far surpass the most popular song "Lies" some time ago.
In particular, the extreme democratic mentality of the South Koreans has given Kim Yufan confidence in his plan.
Nima, I didn't see that Korean artists would be blown into world stars after playing soy sauce in the United States for a while. So if there are countless foreigners imitating the song "Mr.", how much impact it can have in South Korea, Kim Yu-beom doesn't know, but it's definitely worth looking forward to.
When Jin Yufan told Hong Shengcheng of his thoughts, although he hadn't done it before, after Jin Yufan's detailed explanation, Hong Shengcheng's eyes lit up, and he immediately decided to do it according to Jin Yufan's intentions, making the song "Mr." more popular, so as to achieve the purpose of making Kara sing to the next level.
After determining what might happen next with Hong Seung-sung, the two stayed together and studied the matter in detail to make sure that there would be no problems, Kim Yu-beom left Hong Seung-sung's office and returned to his own artist director's office.
As soon as he returned to his office, Jin Yufan made a phone call and dialed a phone number.
"James, it's me Kim, according to the plan, it's time to start. The person notified by Kim Yu-fan is officially the head of Kim Yu-fan's career in the United States, and he is also the person in charge of the publication of Kim Yu-fan's "Twilight" and "Percy Jackson" novels, and is also in charge of Jin Yufan's agent for his career in the United States.
"OK, boss, don't worry, I'm ready for a long time, I believe that tomorrow, you will see a lot of related videos. "Long before that. Kim Yu-beom told James Steve about this and asked James Steve to start preparing.
Therefore, when Kim Yu-beom informed James Steve, the other party readily said that he was ready and that there would be no problems.
"But I said boss, when are you going to come to the United States? You know, I'm under a lot of pressure right now, and the eight major Hollywood studios, including many independent studios, are almost all trying to go crazy and get the rights to the two novel series "Twilight" and "Percy Jackson" to change the movie. BOSS, to be honest, I'm almost overwhelmed, and this matter must be solved by you yourself. ”
"Well, got it, I'll look at the time and situation. Find a suitable time for the United States to settle this matter. Listening to James Steve's words, Jin Yufan was stunned for a moment, and calculated the time, the first part of "Twilight" is also about to start filming, perhaps because this time both books are the same author, "Percy Jackson" has also received the attention of Hollywood studios, hoping to sign an agreement to adapt the novel to the film as soon as possible.
"Hehe, there are more 20 million US dollars in the account. "Hang up. Jin Yufan couldn't help but smile and shook his head, now money is for Jin Yufan. It's really just a number.
Originally, the film adaptation cost of the novel "Twilight" was $7 million, and Summit Entertainment was also very discerning, and signed all the film adaptation rights of the novel series at a price of $7 million in one go.
This also means that in the future, the novel series "Twilight" can only be priced at 7 million by Summit Entertainment. Obtained the right to adapt the movie, which is indeed a big profit for Summit Entertainment.
Perhaps the author didn't expect that the novel would be adapted into a movie and released to have such good box office results, but the lack of confidence at the beginning made the author take a relatively more conservative approach. In one go, I sold all the novel film adaptation rights for the same price.
But Jin Yufan believes that with the release of "Twilight: Twilight", the crazy global box office will definitely make the original author regret it.
If the contract hadn't been signed at the beginning, otherwise, looking at the crazy box office results of the first film, in the second part, the author could have negotiated with the box office of the first movie, then the cost of the film adaptation rights of the second novel would have reached 10 million US dollars at the most conservative estimate.
If the box office is good and super powerful, then the cost of the adaptation rights of the next novel film will only get higher and higher, the third part is no problem to ask for 15 million US dollars, the fourth part is OK for 20 million US dollars, and the fifth part is 25 million to 30 million US dollars, which is no problem.
In short, with the global box office of the "Twilight" movie series still high, the cost of this movie adaptation can naturally be higher and higher, and I don't have to worry about Summit Entertainment not agreeing.
It can be said that because the original author was not confident, he sold the "Twilight" novel series to Summit Entertainment at a price of $7 million each, and on the surface it seemed that he had earned 28 million.
But if you really count it, that's a big loss, $28 million seems like a lot, but judging from the global box office situation of the "Twilight" movie series, according to Jin Yufan's ideas and plans to increase the adaptation fee, it is just the price of the adaptation rights of a novel film.
In this way, the original author almost lost his blood, and he lost tens of millions of dollars.
But then again, no one knew at the time that the box office of the "Twilight" film series would be so high and sensational, and it was not a loss for the original author to sell the film adaptation rights of the novel for $7 million per step.
It can only be said that people are not as good as heaven, and those who are content are always happy.
Of course, now that Jin Yufan has appeared, he will definitely not let this tragedy happen to him. If you want the movie adaptation rights of "Twilight", there is no problem, Jin Yufan has already done several ways to deal with this aspect.
Either you don't give money and directly take 10% of the box office of the movie, this requirement is very difficult, but as long as you fight for it, you may not be unable to get it.
Of course, if this agreement is reached with Hollywood studios, Jin Yufan will definitely insist that all film adaptation rights in the future will be the same, after all, when the box office comes out, the film company will not let itself take so much money for nothing without finalizing the contract in advance.
Not to mention anything else, if it is really divided according to the box office of 10%, the global box office of the second "New Moon" alone has reached a terrifying 700 million US dollars, and 10% is 70 million US dollars.
You must know that the lowest-grossing film novel series of "Twilight" is the first "Twilight", which also has a box office income of more than 300 million US dollars, and according to 10%, it is also 30 million US dollars. As for the follow-up films, almost $600 million at the global box office of one dollar, and each one is $60 million. Even if various taxes and profit sharing are excluded, Jin Yufan can also get more than 40 million yuan in bonuses.
After all, Jin Yufan is just a novel author, not an investor and a production company, what film fund, what theater sharing, etc., I can't expect Jin Yufan's personal income.
If the film company does not agree to this, then Jin Yufan can only open his mouth for 10 million, and then the price of about 10 million to 20 million and increase the film adaptation rights crazily.
Although the cost of film adaptation rights has doubled, and film companies will not accept it lightly, but the copyright is in their own hands, and the global box office is placed there, and the film companies that do not tolerate it do not agree.
As for why Jin Yufan can ask for 10 million US dollars for the first film adaptation rights, it is because Jin Yufan is not only the author of the "Twilight" novel series, but also the author of the "Percy Jackson" novel series.
The two novel series are the most popular and influential novels in the United States, and as the original author, both novel series are created by diet pills, which also makes Jin Yufan open his mouth and ask for a higher price.
Not only the "Twilight" novel series, but also the "Percy Jackson" novel series, will rise because of the same author, so the cost of film adaptation rights will naturally skyrocket.
"Well, when we deal with the matter of playing South Korea, and when we stabilize here, it's time to go to the United States and handle this matter. Hanging up the phone, Jin Yufan sat on the chair and squinted his eyes and thought to himself.
Although the publication of the novel has given Jin Yufan a lot of income, it still can't be compared with the movie, both in terms of influence and income.
The reason why Jin Yufan got these two novel series out is that making money is secondary, and more importantly, Jin Yufan hopes to successfully enter the Hollywood market in the United States with these two novel series. (To be continued......)
