Chapter 276: The battle for the overseas agency of Zheng Xiao's records
Lao Bi laughed and said: "This time, our column also took advantage of Zheng Xiao's popularity to promote our program, according to the American Chinese TV station that cooperates with us, many people are now looking for where the 'Avenue of Stars' will be broadcast!" Our column is also going to really go to the world. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
A director of the column said: "It's okay now, Zheng Xiao's popularity and influence are getting bigger and bigger, and some people in China want to covet this year's Avenue of Stars championship, so they have to weigh it carefully." ”
Lao Bi sighed.
The reason why he posted the video clip of Zheng Xiao imitating Jackson to YouTube in the name of promoting the Avenue of Stars column is to maintain Zheng Xiao's popularity in the United States at a high level, so that the domestic media's attention to Zheng Xiao will not decline.
And if the media digs deep into Zheng Xiao from multiple angles, more people will discover what amazing musical talent and shocking talent Zheng Xiao has.
Such a powerful young man, if he loses the annual championship in the end, it is estimated that the people of the whole country will not agree, right?
This is a helpless practice of the countryside surrounding the city.
October 28, the last Saturday night of October.
This night, the Avenue of Stars October monthly competition will be broadcast. This month's tournament in particular has attracted much attention, and it can be said that many people are eagerly waiting to see it.
There are two main reasons for this:
First, this is the last month of the tournament, and then there is the annual division, and the audience is always interested in the finale.
Second, because of this monthly competition, there is Zheng Xiao's wonderful performance.
"The New Concubine Drunk" was sung for the first time at this monthly competition, and the soul-shocking "Existence" was also sung for the first time at this monthly competition.
Although the October monthly competition has not yet been broadcast, the content and results of the program have gone crazy on the Internet.
Coupled with Zheng Xiao's current popularity at home and abroad, domestic people pay very much attention to Zheng Xiao. Everyone was interested in everything about the boy and wanted to know more about him.
Because of this second reason, not only the "Avenue of Stars", but even the "superstar face" of Fujian Satellite TV has attracted much attention.
This night, it is not just ordinary viewers who pay attention to these two programs.
There are also many insiders.
Mr. Chen of Xinsuo stayed in the company very late this night and did not go home. And accompanying him was Manager Dai, who once refused to let Zheng Xiao's new record use the Xinsuo channel.
Xinsuo now very much hopes to win the right to distribute Zheng Xiao's overseas albums.
Because Zheng Xiao is too hot in the United States now.
The popularity in the United States has also aroused the attention of people all over the world to Zheng Xiao. People in almost all Western countries are paying attention to the horse riding dance, to the big boy who has an amazing ability to imitate and is highly appreciated by Michael Jackson.
Videos about the boy continue to go viral on YouTube, with millions of people coming to YouTube every day to look for Zheng Xiao's videos to enjoy.
And people who have watched Zheng Xiao's performance video are all conquered by this boy's talent and like him.
Zheng Xiao has now swept the world.
And under this craze, there are huge commercial interests.
If you can act as an agent for Zheng Xiao's overseas album distribution rights, it will be a huge treasure!
Now, Mr. Chen's intestines are repentant.
Why did you want to form this bond with Zheng Xiao in the first place? If it weren't for this conflict, I wouldn't be so passive now, would I?
"Xiao Dai, have you gone to He Wei again?" Mr. Chen looked at Manager Dai with a gloomy face, his brows furrowed.
Manager Dai also had a sad face: "Mr. Chen, I went to look for it, she said that now several large international companies are competing for Zheng Xiao's overseas distribution rights of records, depending on which one gives the best conditions, they will choose which." ”
"So, she didn't say no outright?"
"No, she's just haggling for better terms of cooperation." Manager Dai said.
"How many companies are competing for this overseas distribution right now?" Mr. Chen asked.
"Almost all powerful companies have gone, Universal, EMI, Warner, Rolling Stone and other companies are in contact with He Wei." Manager Dai said.
"Have you understood the conditions of those companies?" Mr. Chen asked.
"He Wei revealed a little bit to me." Manager Dai said.
"Tell me about it." Mr. Chen said eagerly.
"The conditions given by Universal are a fixed royalty of 8%; Baidai gives a 30% share of net profit; Warner wants to buy out Zheng Xiao's overseas distribution rights for $2 million each, and Rolling Stone offers a partnership of $1 million plus net profit for a single record. Manager Dai recounted what he knew.
Listening to these offers, Mr. Chen gasped.
"I'm willing to pay for it." Mr. Chen sighed.
"But the benefits can also be expected." Manager Dai said cautiously.
"You say, if we want to win Zheng Xiao's overseas distribution rights, what conditions will be better?" Mr. Chen asked.
"At least the conditions are much better than those of other companies before there may be a chance." Manager Dai said.
He slandered in his heart, he has offended others, if you don't show some sincerity, why should people cooperate with you?
"At present, the best conditions should be Rolling Stone Records, right?" Mr. Chen frowned and said.
Millions of dollars guaranteed, this is equivalent to giving Zheng Xiao a reassurance, even if the record loses money, there will be at least one million dollars in income.
However, this guarantee is actually of little practical significance.
Because the possibility of Zheng Xiao's album losing money is really too small, almost negligible, with Zheng Xiao's current popularity in the United States, just in the United States, he can quickly sell more than one million copies of a record, and the long-term benefits are even more considerable!
There is only one prerequisite: Zheng Xiao's album must be of high quality and meet the cultural needs of Westerners.
This is really not a big deal for a giant record company like Rolling Stone, and there is no shortage of the best music producers with advanced recording equipment.
And Zheng Xiao is also a very powerful musical genius, with first-class singing skills and first-class dancing, what is lacking is just packaging.
Based on the above analysis, the biggest benefit of Rolling Stone is to give Zheng Xiao a 4% share of net profit, which is the most powerful.
European and American big-name singers can generally get 3 or 4 percent of the net profit of the record at most.
Rolling Stone can give Zheng Xiao a forty percent share of net profit, which is already very powerful.
If nothing else, let's just compare it with the income of singers in Japan. When a Japanese singer releases an album, he can only get a maximum of 0.9% of the album's price, and they don't even get as much as composers and lyricists.
The situation in South Korea is a little better, but the income of singing artists is also only a fraction of the income.
ps: If you have a monthly pass, give one, the data is so ugly...... (To be continued.) )
