Chapter 109: Precedent
And if Micron Music launches "Cherry Blossom Grass" without Wen Xiaoshi's permission, if they are sued in the future, they will definitely face compensation.
In particular, they are also worried that if Wen Xiaoshi authorizes the exclusive copyright to Coldplay, then it will be Coldplay Group that will sue them for infringement, which is even more difficult to deal with than Wen Xiaoshi.
"Then I'll give you the man's phone number, and you can go talk to him! Wen Xiaoshi smiled.
"Yes. ”
Nowadays, the world's digital music has gone through a bumpy development process, and now it has also tended to improve, and all major platforms have a set of similar charging standards.
The criteria are a bit complicated, but to put it simply, there are two types of premium music that are targeted.
One is the new album that the singer has just released, and the album needs to be purchased separately for trial, and the number of users who have purchased the album is the sales of this digital album.
Generally speaking, the first warm-up title song of the new album released by the singer is free to listen to, which is for the sake of publicity.
Of course, this is only the choice of most singers, if you really want to charge, no one cares about you.
In the new album that was officially launched later, the tracks only provided a 30-second free trial.
Some people may think that it feels good to let you try it for free for 30 seconds.
But actually, it's even more insidious than not letting you listen.
After hearing 30 seconds, a regular lyric is stuck halfway, and the back is not played, and the feeling of not going up and down is about to stop when it is about to come......
Especially some high-quality good songs, it's nothing if you don't listen to them, anyway, I don't know if you're good or not, so I don't have that thought in my heart.
As a result, after listening to it for 30 seconds, I found that the quality of this song was really high, and I wanted to listen to the follow, so my mind was stirred up.
For some people with obsessive-compulsive disorder, not letting him finish listening to it is more uncomfortable than letting him die, and I can't stand it when I scratch my heart and lungs.
Do you want to hear it?
The price of a digital album containing 10 songs is generally around 15 yuan.
Of course, the price is still set by yourself, as long as you do not exceed the relevant national regulations, this regulation only limits the maximum price, not the minimum price.
The second type of music is "non-new album works", that is, except for the new album that has just been released, all other songs are charged the same standard.
The trial is free, but the download is charged.
When you try to listen for free, you can only listen to the worst sound quality, and you can't cache it when you try it on the mobile client.
In other words, if you want to listen to it a second time, you have to download it again.
For people with wifi, this is nothing, but many people listen to songs on the way to and from work and on the bus, and this traffic is really sad.
If you want to download a song, a single song is 0.3 yuan, and the sound quality of the downloaded song will be better, and the free trial version is definitely different.
In addition, there are some small packages of 1 yuan for 5 songs and 2 yuan for 12 songs.
Users can also choose 10 yuan to open a monthly membership, after opening the membership, this month unlimited audition downloads, unlimited viewing of all MVs, open the function of creating a song list and other privileges.
Or you can open an annual membership for 108 yuan, and this kind of user will have some benefits, such as giving priority to the star's concert or song club tickets.
That's basically the case with music fees now.
While there are slight differences between the platforms, they are largely the same.
Although it is a competitive relationship between peers, in terms of market balance, everyone is also trying to maintain, and if you suddenly adjust the price significantly, it will affect the market balance.
As a result, some platforms use other methods to attract users, such as inviting a celebrity to record a short video and post it on the platform, but only members can watch it.
"Brother Han, and the people from Cool have been practicing with me all the time. Lin Ziyou said: "After I rejected their exclusive copyright issue, they also took a step back, and multi-platform authorization is also possible." ”
"Give me this man's phone number too, and I'll talk to them. ”
"Okay. ”
After they had eaten something, they all went back to their respective homes.
Back in the room, Han Ge continued to complete the unfinished copyright registration, then took a shower and soaked the change of clothes.
Seeing that it was quite late, he went to bed, planning to communicate with the two platforms tomorrow morning.
The next morning, after Han Ge woke up, he still flipped through the new song list as usual.
After seeing that "Cherry Blossom Grass" was still the champion, he at least knew that COOLER hadn't done it yet.
Then he posted a message in the group, asking if they had gotten up for dinner.
When he finished washing and opened the door, he saw that the door of Zhao Qingcheng's room diagonally opposite was already open.
Han Ge walked in, and Zhao Chengcheng was putting on makeup.
After waiting for about two or three minutes, she finished cleaning up and got up and handed Han Ge a key.
"What?" Han Ge was stunned for a moment.
"The key to my room. Zhao Chengcheng said: "Give me the key to your room." ”
"......" Han Ge hesitated, but still agreed.
After breakfast, Lin Ziyou went back to the studio to practice singing.
Han Ge refused Zhao Tingcheng's request to go out with him and let her go freely on her own.
Zhao Qingcheng wondered, every time he didn't let me follow, would I lose your people if I followed you?
Han Ge didn't think about it so much, he just felt that he would be more efficient alone, after all, his work was quite tiring.
Let Zhao Tingcheng run along the street for a few hours, it is estimated that she will not be able to keep up with her rhythm.
Han Ge got on a bus, and then first called the person in charge of Micron Music, his name was Zheng Yunfeng.
Wen Xiaoshi had already informed Zheng Yunfeng about Han Ge, so he already knew Han Ge's identity.
After the two exchanged polite words, they got to the point.
"Do you have any other music works in Mr. Han's hands at the moment? If so, we can talk about them together. Zheng Yunfeng smiled, he definitely wanted more.
"Don't hide it from Manager Zheng, we will indeed release an album next, but the sales method of this album is definitely different from this single. ”
"I understand. Zheng Yunfeng smiled and nodded: "I just hope that Mr. Han can also license this album to us, and we can talk about the rest." ”
"If I can work together, I naturally want to make more friends. Han Ge smiled: "But for now, let's talk about this single first!"
"Yes. Zheng Yunfeng said with a smile.
In fact, in fact, Zheng Yunfeng has never talked about the authorization of a single song.
Because the music on their platform is directly negotiated with the entertainment company to package and buy.
For example, several large entertainment companies they signed need to pay tens of millions of royalties to the entertainment company a year, and then they can enjoy the music network transmission rights of all the singers under the company.
Suddenly talking about the copyright of a single song, Zheng Yunfeng felt a little weird.
Since there is no precedent, it is priced by the quality of the song and the individual's judgment of its future value.
