Chapter 1132: Hong Shengcheng's pride
Under Jin Yufan's reminder, Hong Shengcheng also calmed down. Although Hong Shengcheng is a fan of BabyV.O.X, and even a little crazy, Hong Shengcheng is Hong Shengcheng in the end, once he talks about work, he instantly returns to his usual gentleness, and it seems that everything is under control.
"Don't worry, Yu Fan, it's not the first day we met, don't worry about me!" Hong Shengcheng said with a smile, and then began to talk in detail.
"When you said that Baby V.O.X might sign a contract with our MC, I was already preparing at that time. As you meet with several members of BabyV.O.X, especially the captain Jin Qizhi, the conversation is very pleasant, not surprisingly, BabyV.O.X will choose to sign a contract with our MC company, at that time I began to be completely prepared, the things you explained to me, the main things have been done at present, but there are still some things that have not been completely done. ”
Jin Yufan: "What has been done, and what has not been done?"
Hong Shengcheng: "At the beginning, you confirmed that BabyV.O.X would sign a contract with our MC company, so at that time, I had already started to contact DRMusic, although the process was very difficult, and the price paid was more than expected, but I think that the price paid is still worth it, at least now our MC company has successfully obtained all the copyrights related to BabyV.O.X." ”
"Whether it's the group name of BabyV.O.X, or the name of BabyV.O.X, or the copyright of the iconic cheering color and support, we have already taken it down. ”
Speaking of which, Hong Shengcheng looked proud, and seemed to be very proud that he was able to win these copyrights.
on this. Jin Yufan didn't say anything, it was indeed very difficult for Hong Shengcheng to be able to do this.
Perhaps the copyright related to BabyV.O.X, for DRMusic, is a chicken rib, and it is a pity to abandon it if it is tasteless. But no matter what. It's all copyright related to BabyV.O.X.
Let's ask, have you ever heard of DRMusic at present, obviously not, which is enough to prove that DRMusic's current influence is really not very good, and among the brokerage companies in the Korean entertainment industry, it can only be regarded as a medium-sized brokerage company at most.
In fact, it would be a bit too much to say that DRMusic is a medium-sized brokerage company, if it weren't for the fact that DRMusic's soft power is strong enough. In addition to the fact that the artist is not very good, otherwise it is really not a medium-sized brokerage company, and at most it can only be regarded as a small brokerage company.
An agency like DRMusic, in the absence of any popular and successful artists, wants to attract excellent trainees, let alone compared with the four major agencies, even compared with those small and medium-sized agencies, there is no advantage.
In this case. DRMusic's biggest advantage is that it has cultivated a super girl group like BabyV.O.X. In a way, this is DRMusic's greatest pride. It is also the biggest highlight and signboard of DRMusic, even if it is recruiting trainees, after so many years, every DRMusic is promoted in the name of BabyV.O.X, what do you want to become the next BabyV.O.X, come to DRMusic and other promotional slogans. It's already rotten.
But no matter how bad it is, BabyV.O.X's popularity and influence are still there, and with this alone, DRMusic can still recruit some trainees normally, although they are not cultivated in the end. But that's just DRMusic's problem.
The brokerage company uses the outstanding artists that the company has cultivated as a promotional slogan to recruit trainees, which is also common in the Korean entertainment industry. In fact, a successful artist, for a brokerage company, is not only the value that the artist can create, but also the influence of the artist, and the long-term influence and benefits of the brokerage company.
Not to mention anything else, just the enrollment of trainees, two brokerage companies with the same strength in all aspects, but one has cultivated an excellent artist, and the other has not, there are 100 trainees, and it is estimated that 80 or 90 people will go to which agency that cultivates excellent artists.
There is nothing to say about this, although the trainee is young and ignorant, it does not mean that the trainee's family does not have this eyesight. or the agency of the artist who has been cultivated is destined to have many people to choose, and the pressure and competition are great in all aspects, but it is undeniable that since the other party can cultivate the first, then it can also cultivate the second.
As for the brokerage companies that have not produced excellent trainees, it is obvious that they are not as attractive as the former. After all, the trainee's dream is to debut as an artist and become the best artist, in this case, a brokerage company that has achieved and experienced in star-making is undoubtedly more attractive to the trainee.
If nothing else, just S? Company M is enough to see the benefits of artists to the agency in all aspects. Take a look at the current S? Company M's boy group, whether it is TVXQ or SuperJunior, or even groups such as SHINee later, to put it bluntly, the reason why the members of these groups choose to become S? M, it's all because of the combination of HOT and mythology.
Is it because of the S? Company M has cultivated a super combination of HOT and Mythology, which makes these trainees choose to join S? Company M, becoming a trainee in it, begins to work hard for his dreams.
Even so, S? Company M will not continue to use the fame and influence of the combination of HOT and mythology to recruit trainees, after all, it has been a long time and it is not popular. However, using the company's outstanding artists as a way and means to attract trainees, S? Company M has never given up, and now even if it doesn't use the combination of HOT and Mythology, it's not useless, but it's replaced by people, from the previous HOT and Myth. It has become what TVXQ is today.
The same is true for JYP, which typically attracts trainees with signs and slogans of GOD and Rain. The same is true for DSPs, even now, because of the success of Fin.K.L and Crystal Boy in that year, and later SS501 has always been one of the first choices for trainees.
YG's situation is a little different, and there really weren't many artists who could do it before. However, YG's situation is very special, because YG has been unswervingly following the hip-hop route since its creation, which is also unique in the Korean music scene, which also leads to the fact that although it is not as attractive as other agencies, as long as the trainee likes hip-hop, then YG will be the first choice, so YG does not need to worry about not being able to recruit trainees.
Not to mention now. YG's situation was different, and YG was able to train the BigBang group, which also made YG more confident in recruiting trainees.
Because, an excellent and successful artist has many benefits for any brokerage company. Even if the artist has been disbanded or settled with the company, the influence is still everywhere.
But all the same. When the agency sells all the copyrights related to the artist, it often means that the agency has completely cut off its contact with the artist.
Because all the copyrights related to this artist were sold. If it is obtained by this artist again, and the artist is not his own agency, then the influence and effect that the artist can bring in the future will be in the agency where the artist is located, not in the original agency.
That's why. Even if BabyV.O.X was disbanded, but for so many years, not no one has contacted DRMusic and wanted to get the copyright related to BabyV.O.X, but in the end it was solved by DRMusic.
Because DRMusic is clear. It's just like that, and it's all an accident and luck to be able to train Baby V.O.X, and it's very difficult to train excellent artists in the future.
At this time, the existence of BabyV.O.X is the biggest signboard of DRMusic, and it is also the best weapon to attract trainees. Although DRMusic is struggling with strength and cannot cultivate excellent artists, this does not mean that DRMusic does not need to recruit trainees.
After all, if any brokerage company wants to continue to develop and survive in the entertainment industry, trainees must be recruited, no matter whether they can be trained or not, whether they can become talents or not, whether they can get smooth after their debut, trainees must be recruited, and the sentence that trainees are the foundation and future of the brokerage company, and the fresh blood of the brokerage company is not something to say casually.
Because of this, DRMusic should be more concerned about the copyrights related to BabyV.O.X, and will not easily sell the copyrights related to BabyV.O.X. In this case, Hong Shengcheng can also get the copyright related to BabyV.O.X, which is indeed very difficult, and it is no wonder that Hong Shengcheng is so proud, even Jin Yufan has to sigh.
"Eh~~~ brother, you have taken all these, so why do you still say that there are still some things that have not been done?"
Hong Shengcheng shrugged his shoulders and smiled bitterly: "Have you forgotten that you asked me to take all the copyrights related to BabyV.O.X as much as possible." Although most of the copyrights have been obtained, DRMusic refuses to sell the copyrights of BabyV.O.X-related songs, and the copyright of the songs also involves songwriters, in short, the problem is very complicated, so until now, except for a few songs that have been successfully conquered, the other songs have not been obtained. ”
"Song!" Jin Yufan was stunned for a moment, thinking about it carefully, the copyrights related to BabyV.O.X have been obtained, so in the future, BabyV.O.X will be able to continue to act in the name of BabyV.O.X.
But those songs from the BabyV.O.X period, especially those classics and masterpieces, are not obtained, then BabyV.O.X is still somewhat different from the previous BabyV.O.X, and in general it is not perfect.
However, Jin Yufan also knew that Hong Shengcheng had worked very hard, so it was difficult to say anything: "It's okay brother, if you can't get it, you can't get it." It's not a big deal, it's a big deal that I'm writing some good songs for BabyV.O.X, and BabyV.O.X can still return to the music scene. What's more, BabyV.O.X's current situation is also a bit special, whether it is a normal solo development like Fin.K.L, and then returns once a year or two. I haven't discussed it with the other party yet, and I can't be sure, but in case Baby V.O.X is used to solo activities and doesn't really want to return, it's uncertain. ”
Speaking of this, Jin Yufan also stopped a little embarrassed, this sentence is completely deceitful. Just ask, any person who was born as a singer, unless there is really no way or an accident, otherwise. Even if he has been in other professions for many years, even if he has spent most of his life, as long as he can have the opportunity to sing and continue to release records, he probably will not refuse.
Even, the more time passes, the more the singer wants to release a record and return to the music scene!
Baby V.O.X is one of the top 10 groups in Korea's first generation, even if solo has developed over the years. Even if Yoon Eun-hye doesn't have any intention of returning to the music scene, it's only because the members of Baby V.O.X are not there.
Right now. BabyV.O.X signed a contract with MC Company, and everyone in BabyV.O.X has returned, if you don't believe it, ask Yoon Eun-hye, ask Yoon Eun-hye if she wants to return to the music scene, and see what kind of answer Yoon Eun-hye will give you.
Obviously, don't even think about it. It is estimated that Yoon Eun-hye will be very excited to say that as long as he can be with Ernie, it must be a very good and happy thing to return to the music scene, and even he has always had this idea.
Seeing Jin Yufan, he didn't say anything. Hong Shengcheng comforted Jin Yufan in turn: "Although the song didn't get too many copyrights, fortunately, I still took down several of the most representative and classic songs of Baby V.O.X." Although there are not many songs, there are only five in total, but I think it is enough. ”
Jin Yufan's eyes lit up, and he looked at Hong Shengcheng curiously: "Brother, what are those five songs?"
"The Day I Did My Hair", "YaYaYa", "GetUp", "Killer" and "Accidental"!" After speaking, Hong Shengcheng couldn't help but laugh.
Jin Yufan looked at Hong Shengcheng in a daze, speechless for a long time, if Hong Shengcheng really took down these five songs, then what else is there to say.
Nima, the reason why he asked Hong Shengcheng to find a way to take down those songs from the BabyV.O.X period is for these five songs.
And now, Hong Shengcheng has taken these five songs, what else do I have to say, Nima's task of singing about the Baby V.O.X period, Hong Shengcheng has completed.
After a long time, Jin Yufan, who came back to his senses, looked at Hong Shengcheng who had a bad smile on his face, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Brother, don't play with me like this, okay, these five songs have been taken down, what else do I have to say." In fact, from the very beginning, I have only been eyeing these five songs of Baby V.O.X!"
"The Day I Made My Hair", this song is the title song of BabyV.O.X's first album. Let's not talk about the results and popularity of this song, in all fairness, this song is really average, under normal circumstances, songs like "The Day I Made My Hair", Jin Yufan will not look at it at all and ignore it completely, but this song is definitely the most important children's song for BabyV.O.X.
It is precisely because of "The Day I Made My Hair" that BabyV.O.X officially debuted and embarked on its own legendary road, which can also be called BabyV.O.X's debut song. And for his first album, especially the title song, there is no doubt that in the minds of the members of BabyV.O.X, the weight occupied is definitely final.
Just look at Girls' Generation, no matter how popular it is, even if there are countless classic songs, the debut song "The World of Reunion" will always be the most important in the minds of Girls' Generation members, and even more important than "GEE", which made Girls' Generation completely turn over and become popular.
In fact, the song "The Day I Made My Hair" is really not very good, and the reason why Kim Yu-beom attaches importance to this song is entirely because this song is the debut song of BabyV.O.X, which is of great significance to BabyV.O.X, and attaches importance to this song for the sake of BabyV.O.X.
The situation of "YaYaYa" is not painful, the song "YaYaYa" can be said to gradually determine the sweet girly style of BabyV.O.X, and it is the beginning of BabyV.O.X's complete rise, because the importance of BabyV.O.X is estimated to be second only to "The Day I Made My Hair", and the quality of the song itself is also very good.
As for the three songs "GetUp", "Killer" and "Accidental", there is nothing to say, they are definitely BabyV.O.X's masterpieces and classics, all of which were songs that dominated the three major Korean TV stations at that time and won the weekly championship.
"Okay, with these five songs, I believe now, and when the time comes, I will be more confident that BabyV.O.X will sign a contract with our MC company!" Jin Yufan, who came back to his senses, couldn't help but say with a confident face.
BabyV.O.X has obtained the relevant copyrights, and has also obtained these five songs, coupled with the resources and advantages of MC in all aspects, Jin Yufan does not believe that BabyV.O.X will not sign a contract with MC. (To be continued......)
