As a result, the white heaven and the emperor played soy sauce in the unit to code this chapter out, fortunately, the leader understands, thank you to the leader! At the same time, thank you for the great reward of "God →_→ →_→ Disease"! Thank you for eating pineapple and gnawing the skin, and thank you for the support of Sister Duckweed! Thank you for your encouragement! At the same time, thank you to all the friends on the fan list and all the friends who read this book and voted for recommending this book! This book will be overhauled, and I hope it will surprise you by then!
After saying the above words, Ji Ruolin stared at Li Yuyang's eyes, which can be described as cautious, for fear that he would not understand, and that he would not agree after understanding, after all, after a period of making up for the common sense of the music world, she also knew that the process of inviting a musician to write songs for other singers was actually very complicated, and it was definitely not something that could be said casually like she is now.
Chen Ying is an exception, she can't guarantee that Li Youyang will write songs for other singers at this time. At the same time, Li Youyang is also an exception, because he is now even a grass-headed singer who does not even have a folk art qualification certificate.
Generally, even if a grass singer writes a good song, there may not be a real singer willing to sing it, because there are rules for the industry, there are more rules in the entertainment industry, and the division of grades is stricter.
A singer who has reached a certain level does not mean that he sings a song casually, Dong Xueqin mentioned by Ji Ruolin is a good example, Dong Xueqin, a female singer, is only twenty-four or five this year, but she has a proud backbone, and she picks songs very well! Not only is it not that Qin Taosheng doesn't sing the songs of a big producer of his level, but even if the songs written by the big producers don't meet her liking, she won't sing them! In short, it's a thorn, but such thorns are still everywhere in today's music scene.
But for some reason, Ji Ruolin has an inexplicable confidence at this time, once the song written by Li Youyang, a grass-headed singer, reaches the hands of Dong Xueqin, Dong Xueqin, she will gladly accept it! Even this confidence is not inexplicable, but dignified and determined!
Ji Ruolin is sure that there is probably no pop singer in today's music industry who will not be ecstatic when he gets a song like "Comprehension" and "Wind or Rain"! Even non-mainstream singers will be thrilled when they get these two songs, and Dong Xueqin must be no exception!
Li Ruolin is very confident in Li Youyang's song, but Li Youyang is deep in thought.
According to the memory in his mind, Dong Xueqin is naturally no stranger to the singer, and he has sung three songs over the years, although they are heavier than the earth, but they are also smash hits on the earth. At the same time, he is also really powerful, otherwise how can he switch freely in the three obviously different styles of "Star Wish", "Listening to the Sea" and "Whose Tears Are Flying", and sing his own unique style?
At the same time, it is precisely because of Dong Xueqin's strength, of course, as well as Ji Ruolin's prickly character that she doesn't sing non-good songs and only releases singles but can't produce albums, which makes her have a large number of fans and diehards, so it seems that Yihai has stopped giving her new songs to sing in the past two years, which is quite hidden, but Dong Xueqin's own popularity has not diminished at all, and every time she participates in a commercial performance, it will cause a sensation.
Because although Yihai Records did not give her new songs, but did not hide her commercial performances, for her it was nothing more than no new songs to sing, but with these three old songs and huge popularity, her commercial value in the past two years has not decreased much.
Of course, not singing new songs will not have no impact on Dong Xueqin.
The so-called impact is that Yihai Records can rest assured that she can be rented to other artist companies, and during the two-year contract period, it will generate an additional rental fee for Yihai.
Speaking of which, we can't fail to talk about the artist rental system that is unique to this world.
The record companies in this world are no different from those on the earth, and they are divided into four categories according to different forms, including: traditional record companies, cultural companies, brokerage companies, and promotion companies, which are engaged in the same business scope as record printing, record publishing, music production, star packaging, singer promotion, performances, copyright agents, wireless operations, etc.
At the same time, a real big record company will integrate these four categories, which can independently produce the release of records, and can also carry out various packaging and promotion of its singers, which can be described as comprehensive.
Qin Taosheng's Yihai Records is obviously such a large record company, with countless signed singers and celebrities. And once there are more singers under it, then there will naturally be a problem of uneven distribution of resources, just like the cold bench of players, those with outstanding ability on the field, rookies and thorns sit on the cold bench, or are loaned to other clubs to hone and hone.
Obviously, if Dong Xueqin is in the football world, she is the kind of player who has been listed for rent by the club, and now she has changed to the music world, then it is the same reason.
Because of his unruliness and unruliness, he didn't sing new songs for N years, which made the top management of Yihai quite annoyed; But because of Dong Xueqin's huge popularity and potential commercial value, even if Yihai didn't focus on packaging and promoting Dong Xueqin, he didn't let her participate in various commercial performances. Therefore, in recent years, although it is rare to see Dong Xueqin's news on the program recording of major radio and television stations, various entertainment news or online news, her shadow still often appears on the commercial performance stage sponsored by major cities and major enterprises.
This Dong Xueqin is the queen of commercial performances! Li Youyang gave Dong Xueqin a definition in his mind, and then felt that Ji Ruolin's plan to lease Dong Xueqin from Shaokang Group was really tricky.
Why do you say that there is a head?
Because in order for a big record company like Yihai Records to rent out its artists to other entertainment companies, a basic condition that must be met is that this entertainment company cannot have a conflict of interest with Yihai Records! Can't the artists I rent to you end up making a lot of money for you, and my company can't get anything except a rental fee. In short, peers are enemies, why should my baby lend to your house to help you make money?
Therefore, when signing this kind of lease agreement again, the two companies will inevitably fight each other, and as the lessor, they will put forward a number of overlord clauses, such as if the lessee company fills the singer with a record, the income of all parties must be given to the lessor at least 50% of the clouds, and the record must be marked with "the lessor's artist so-and-so", as well as the words "jointly produced by the lessor and the lessee"! At the same time, during the lease period of the artist, all the publicity and promotion, all expenses, all the shares and even the monthly basic salary have to be borne by the tenant, isn't this completely a fool?
From the perspective of the earth, it seems incredible to Li Youyang, but in this world, Li Youyang knows that this is a very common cooperation model in the entertainment industry.
And the most direct reason for this cooperation model is actually very simple, that is, the weak in the entertainment industry take advantage of the strong.
Yes, it's a leverage.
In Li Youyang's mind, the population of this world is not as large as the earth, but the economic development and per capita quality of life are not a level higher than the earth, which can be seen from the fact that Li Youyang was so poor at the beginning, and he can still rent a rooftop hut as a good living environment!
At the same time, most of the people in this society have a natural purity and chic, they can enjoy themselves at any time, and they don't care about everything, although they will also intrigue and fight to the death, but they can't reach the heinous realm of some human beings on the earth.
In short, this is a relatively optimistic, casual, inclusive, and open-minded world.
So full of warm thoughts**, no, it's full of warm thoughts and pleasures!
This is another society of entertainment for all, people are full of food, they have money and leisure, and they naturally have to pay more attention to entertainment activities. Therefore, the world's sports, various film and television dramas, and various performing arts activities are extremely popular, and there are even more followers under all kinds of stars, and fans are bursting!
However, compared with the world's sports and film and television works, the music scenes of various countries seem to be so much worse, and I don't know if the population base is too small compared to the earth, or the musicians in this world do not have the kind of spirituality on the earth. Some well-known musicians on the planet don't have the right number here.
However, even if there are not many peak works in the music world, people's love for music is increasing! Various entertainment companies are constantly springing up.
And this huge entertainment market has also opened up the rental model of this world's artists.
Of course, Yihai will not rent its artists to a record company of the same level as him, even if he wants to rent, the other party will not want it. Peers are enemies, and the same strength is mortal enemies. Therefore, artist leasing generally only arises from the promotion of established entertainment companies to new entertainment companies.
A new entertainment company has been established, so it's okay to rent a few artists from an established company to support the scene. It's a win-win situation for both parties. The old company gets a lot of rental fees from the new company, and the new company can get well-known artists from the old company to gather popularity, cultivate new talents, and hit the market!
At the same time, this is not a bad thing for this kind of rented singer, once you are rented, then it proves that you are already in the embarrassing situation of grandma not loving uncle in the old company, maybe the basic salary is not willing to pay you.
But then again, once you are really leased out and go to a new company, then this new company will definitely completely repackage you, and open your heart to the outside world. Our company is a rookie in the industry, a dark horse in the Chinese music scene! It will be officially established on a certain day of a certain year, a certain month, and I hope that the majority of singers who have obtained the folk art qualification certificate will come to the audition to sign a contract! At the same time, we have hired a large company's famous artist XX special concert will also be held on a certain day, concert tickets in the front row of 588, 288 in the middle row, 188 in the back row, scalpers at a fixed price of 388, pre-purchase please wow
So this is also a great thing for the singers who are rented, the reason why people want to rent you is to prove that you still have a certain amount of influence. This kind of opportunity to return to the furnace is not something that everyone can have, and the key is to value your strength and appeal. Therefore, how many singers who have been on the cold bench for a year or two in large companies actually value this kind of opportunity, this kind of opportunity is not only not a shame, but also an honor!
But this is only on ordinary singers, on Dong Xueqin, an extraordinary singer, I'm afraid she really doesn't see it that way. Because in Li Youyang's impression, Dong Xueqin is not only a singer, but also has a powerful family, Dong Xueqin's old man is quite hard, so even if Dong Xueqin doesn't sing new songs, the top management of Yihai can only endure it, alas, I can't fight anything these days, I still have to fight my father! Therefore, now if you want Dong Xueqin to come to Shaokang Group, it is really not something that Yihai's senior management can decide unilaterally, the key is to see whether Dong Xueqin wants to come or not.
And for her to come, there must be good songs, and if you want to have good songs, Li Yuyang, who suddenly broke out, suddenly became very critical!
Obviously, that's what Ji Ruolin thinks.
The songs he wrote are so good! will definitely impress Dong Xueqin
Thinking of this, Ji Ruolin looked at Li Youyang's eyes even more pitiful, when Li Youyang fell into contemplation, she was even more apprehensive, and Chen Ying and Li Yiyi, who saw it at the end, couldn't bear it, and wanted to grab Li Youyang's sleeve and make him agree.
But Li Youyang was still silent, in fact, this thing had already agreed in his heart, and even recalled this Dong Xueqin once, and he really didn't think much about the rest. Isn't it just a song? For the sake of your woman's good face, it's for you! The reason why I pretended to be deep was because it was rare to see Ji Ruolin in a hurry, thinking that you are always a queen in front of your brother, and you will twist your ears when you say that you twist your ears! It's finally in the hands of my brother today, and my brother really has to make a gesture and drop your appetite!
However, Ji Ruolin was really anxious in the end, and she didn't wait for Li Yiyi and Chen Ying to say something for her, but her eyes lit up as if she remembered something, and she instantly returned to the queen's style and slapped the table: "Li Youyang!" You don't speak, do you! It doesn't matter if you don't say it! I vividly remember that time during the day, you were going to write a song for my brother in public! Don't be a half-year-old moth now! There's no need for you to write a song for my brother! But since you said it, then you have to write no! ”
"I won't let you write it to my brother, my brother and I are inseparable! Just write me a song! Just when I beg you, I thank you! Also when you thank me! Because today's mess is all I'm collecting for you! You stabbed such a big man, you should also show it to me! Then I'll give it to Dong Xueqin! Don't say no! But you say it, it's a man who has to count! ”
"Ugh!"
Li Youyang, that sweat! The heart said, why did this woman still make out the part of the day? To be honest, when he said that he wanted to write a song for Ji Shaokang during the day, he completely blurted out, now that he thinks about it, wouldn't it be over to pay him one million and Chen Ying's father's medical expenses within half a year, why do you still write songs! No, it's a matter of words.
Of course, this is not important, the important thing is that although Ji Ruolin's words seem to be unintentional, Li Youyang clearly felt that Chen Ying's body snuggled up to him at some point was hard, and when he turned his face, he found that Chen Ying's little face turned pale instantly, and he unconsciously held a straw in his mouth, sucking and sucking in the Coke cup that Li Youyang had drunk, which shows that for her, the part of the day really doesn't want to mention anymore
Li Youyang took a long breath, first hugged Chen Ying comfortingly, and then said to Ji Ruolin: "Okay! Write now! But don't talk about the daytime in the future. Do you have pen and paper? ”
Then in Ji Ruolin's eyes that were a little guilty but more joyful, Li Youyang took the paper and pen she was asking for, and wrote hard.
The most familiar strangers.
Li Youyang didn't know why he wrote this song, maybe Ji Ruolin felt a little strange to him just now, or maybe the people in this room were objectively the strangers he was most familiar with, or he would come into contact with more familiar strangers in the future, anyway, he wrote this song
Remember, the moonlit ocean outside the window? Do you remember, it was love that made each other light up the night, only to blame us for loving so violently, loving so deeply, and we became the most familiar strangers in the world
