"I need a song, a song that can help me turn things around!" Cheng Li looked at Zeng Xiaoxian with burning eyes: "Of course, the more the merrier, it is best to be a song like the golden song of the year." ”

The golden song of the year? Zeng Xiaoxian looked at Cheng Li, it was necessary to sell 500,000 copies in a year.

In this world, because of the intact copyright protection, the record industry has always been thriving, and of course it is divided into two types: physical records and virtual records. A virtual record is a song and a music video published on the Internet, while a record is a high-definition disc.

Physical records are basically albums, or commemorative editions released by singers, and of course there are collector's editions.

In the case of singles, they are basically released on virtual records, and what Cheng Li needs is a single that can be discovered by herself.

"I've got the song ready for you!" Zeng Xiaoxian looked at Cheng Li and said in a deep voice: "It's just that I want to know how you can do it and jump out of your company?" Or are you ready to release your own single? The current state of your company, because you shouldn't release a single, right? ”

Cheng Li glanced at Sister Fan and leaned directly on the sofa, obviously this question should be explained by Sister Fan.

"The company promised Sister Li to release a single by herself and sell it through the company's channels!" Sister Fan looked at Zeng Xiaoxian: "This is Sister Li's last request to the company, otherwise she won't agree to the concert tour." ”

"That's it!" Zeng Xiaoxian touched his chin, frowned and said, "If that's the case, they will jam Sister Li on the issue, right?" ”

Sister Fan shook her head and said in a deep voice: "Sister Li and the company have not yet reached the point of turning their faces, they will not do this, if Sister Fan's song is more popular, they will naturally change their attitude." On the other hand, if the new fire starts, the tour is not unacceptable. ”

Zeng Xiaoxian nodded, I see, Cheng Li is just proving that she can still create benefits for the company.

From a business point of view, the company is not wrong, and Cheng Li strives for her own treatment, which is also true. It is impossible for the company to support outdated stars indefinitely, and such a company will collapse sooner or later, and there is no suspense at all. It's chilling, but there's no way around it.

The company was able to give Cheng Li a single all the time, which can be regarded as benevolence and righteousness, and the last bit of affection.

"Sister Li, you really went back to the front line, I'm afraid you won't renew your contract with the company, right?" Zeng Xiaoxian looked at Cheng Li and asked in a deep voice.

"Why not?" Cheng Li smiled faintly: "In business, such things are normal. Speaking of which, the company was polite to me, if it weren't for the previous love, I guess I wouldn't have had the opportunity to release a single this time. ”

Zeng Xiaoxian nodded, this can be regarded as a last resort, or the interdependent relationship between artists and companies.

The company holds up the artist to create value, and the artist borrows the company's channels to open up his own fame. Taking what they need is a kind of cooperation, and when the cooperation can't go on, breaking up becomes inevitable.

"Sister Li, these are two singles for you, you can pick one and release it." Zeng Xiaoxian took out the two songs and gently pushed them in front of Cheng Li's forehead: "If nothing else, it should give Sister Li a surprise." ”

In Zeng Xiaoxian's view, his two songs, not to mention the annual golden song, are the platinum of the year, and even the diamond of the year are possible.

Taking the tune, Cheng Li calmed down her excitement and began to watch it.

Zeng Xiaoxian leaned back on the sofa, looked at Sister Fan and said, "Why doesn't your company try to transform Sister Li?" From a singer to an actor, acting in TV series and movies, you can do it! It's not popular to diversify now, but the status of diverse artists is also more stable! ”

Sister Fan glanced at Zeng Xiaoxian, and said with a wry smile: "With so many artists, how many people have you seen successfully transformed?" ”

Slightly stunned, Zeng Xiaoxian touched his nose and thought about it, it seems that there are really not many, even if there are, most of them are interested in playing tickets. In the previous life, there seemed to be fewer and fewer artists like the Four Heavenly Kings, who basically acted and sang.

Although everyone is talking about film and television stars, there are still few who have really done it.

In his previous life, Jay Chou was a legend in the music world, with countless fans, and he also tried to turn to the big screen, but the result was not very good. starred in several movies, but failed to become the existence of the Four Heavenly Kings.

The small screen may be a little easier to transform, but there are really not too many successful examples of singing.

Zeng Xiaoxian knows that unless his singing career reaches the level of a king and a queen, it is impossible to become an evergreen, which is unrealistic. After all, there are so many good songs, even if you are a singer-songwriter, it is difficult to stay inspired for a long time.

Of course, the kings and queens are different, their status is there, and their achievements are brilliant enough.

Even if you don't release a record for a few years, once you release one, it is definitely incomparable to other singers.

"Our company is just a record company, and we don't have any roots in the film and television industry." Cheng Li seemed to have finished reading it, put the song in her hand on the table, and said in a deep voice: "Good song, very good, I won't negotiate the price with you, I will give you a share of this song." ”

Divide into? Zeng Xiaoxian didn't expect Cheng Li to be so generous, and actually gave himself a share, which is the treatment of a top lyricist.

Famous directors, basically the films they direct, in addition to the basic director's fees, they will participate in the sharing of the film's revenue. On the one hand, it can improve the enthusiasm of the director, and on the other hand, it can also invite big-name directors to reduce the cost in the early stage.

The same goes for top producers, a record, or a single all the time, they basically have to participate in revenue sharing.

"I listen to Sister Li!" Zeng Xiaoxian smiled, although he didn't care much about it, and he didn't do it well, it made Zeng Xiaoxian's heart very comfortable.

"300,000, 10 years of exclusive authorization, plus 17% of the record." Cheng Li looked at Zeng Xiaoxian: "I have asked Sister Fan to prepare the contract, if you think it's okay, let's sign the contract, and I'll ask Sister Fan to transfer 600,000 yuan to you." ”

Of course, Zeng Xiaoxian has no problem, and as for the exclusive authorization for ten years, Zeng Xiaoxian didn't pay attention to it.

Basically, after singing a song, the value will shrink significantly, and even if someone covers it, it will not have much benefit.

It's not the same as literature, good literature, that's all kinds of remakes, a whole bunch of various versions. It's basically hard to do that with songs, and freshness is important.

Sister Fan, who was listening to the voice, hurriedly took the contract and handed it to Zeng Xiaoxian.

After taking the contract, Zeng Xiaoxian flipped through it, he didn't pretend to be generous, and he didn't even look at the contract.

Seeing this scene, Cheng Li smiled slightly, there was no unhappiness in her eyes, friendship is friendship, transaction is transaction, and it cannot be mixed up. Otherwise, it will not only affect the relationship, but also affect the transaction, and only separation will not affect the friendship or the transaction.

"Sister Li, are you going back to the company to prepare a single?" Zeng Xiaoxian looked at Cheng Li and asked.

After all, there is still the Young Singer Grand Prix here, Cheng Li basically can't leave, if she waits until after the Young Singer Grand Prix, I'm afraid it's too late.

"I've already contacted the recording studio and the studio where the music video was filmed, and as soon as I get your song, production will start right away, and it will be completed soon." Cheng Li squeezed her eyes at Zeng Xiaoxian, and said with a smile: "If you release a single, you can find me, I still have some connections, especially in Binhai." ”

"If there is a demand, I will definitely trouble Sister Li!" For this point, Zeng Xiaoxian naturally will not be polite.

After having a meal with Cheng Li, Zeng Xiaoxian returned to the love apartment, it was not early, and after going back, Zeng Xiaoxian fell asleep.

Early the next morning, Zeng Xiaoxian was sleeping in a daze, and he felt that his quilt had been lifted. When he opened his eyes, Zeng Xiaoxian saw Hu Yifei standing beside his bed with his waist pinched, wearing an apron and holding a spoon in his hand.

"Hurry up, what time is it, don't get up yet!" Hu Yifei looked at Zeng Xiaoxian and said loudly.

Looking at the only piece of clothing on his body, which was a superhuman underwear, Zeng Xiaoxian pulled the quilt over, glared at Hu Yifei and said, "Are you sick?" What's crazy about early in the morning? ”

Hu Yifei shrugged his shoulders, didn't seem to care at all, and waved his spoon: "I'm still here to call you to eat, get up quickly, don't be ignorant of good people!" After saying that, he walked out, and when he got to the door, he turned back and said, "Hurry up!" ”

Zeng Xiaoxian saw Hu Yifei walking out, so he lifted his quilt and quickly put on his clothes.

After washing, Zeng Xiaoxian came to the table, looked at the egg fried rice made by Yifei, sat down, and started eating!

"How? Is egg fried rice good? Hu Yifei looked at Zeng Xiaoxian with a smile and said gently.

After a cold war, how could Zeng Xiaoxian not guess that Hu Yifei had something, otherwise how could she have such an attitude, and ran to her room to wake herself up. However, Zeng Xiaoxian pretended to be stupid, lowered his head and ate violently, and nodded when he heard Hu Yifei's question.

It is definitely not a simple matter to make Yifei do this, which Zeng Xiaoxian knows very well.

"Eat it, eat it, it's time to listen to me!" When Hu Yifei saw Zeng Xiaoxian's appearance, he had to grit his teeth and say, the threat was very obvious.

"You say, you say!" Zeng Xiaoxian smiled wryly, he couldn't afford to offend!

Nodding with satisfaction, Hu Yifei said slowly: "Do you remember the last time I told you about the National College Student Micro Film Competition?" ”

This thing? Zeng Xiaoxian frowned and nodded: "Didn't you care if I borrowed the equipment?" I borrowed it from you, haven't you already started filming? Let me tell you, you have to return the equipment to me as soon as possible, otherwise I won't be able to explain to my third uncle. ”

If you don't urge, it's not the equipment of Bayi Factory, it was rented by Zeng Xiaoxian, and it will cost you a day to delay it. After a sudden pause, Zeng Xiaoxian raised his head and said with a big mouth: "Didn't you break the equipment?" ”
