Chapter 69: Ambition in the Music World

Since Mr. Liang Yirong and Ms. Meng Shaoguang joined the music department of Zhengdong, the daily work of the music department has been on the right track.

At present, Mr. Su Jian is busy making the soundtrack for the movie "Rushing to the Sky Tower", and he really can't take care of so many things, but with the help of Liang Yirong and Meng Shaoguang, everything is fine.

During this time, Zheng Longshi's repertoire for the Voice has all been arranged.

After a while, in mid-August, it will be the "Mentor Assessment" competition of The Voice.

Zheng Longshi is ready.

The Dynasty Band also recorded two theme songs and several interludes from the TV series "Flower Season", and the effect was very good.

Needless to say, Liang Yirong's music production level is extremely good, and the level of selection and arrangement is extremely good, absolutely foolproof.

On Wednesday, Director Wan received a genuine sample from Zhengdong's music department, which was sent by a music editor, Sun Le. After listening to the official versions of these songs, Director Zhao is very satisfied and thinks they are very good.

The arranged versions of these songs are officially passed here at the top of the crew.

Zhou Yi was naturally very happy, and also took time to chat with music editor Sun Le.

Zhou Yi has some understanding of the things in the music department, he doesn't really ignore what is going on outside the window, and only focuses on making TV series.

He is indeed very concerned about the development of the Dynasty Band and Zheng Longshi.

In Zhou Yi's opinion, if necessary, you can ask someone to shoot a few music videos and send them to an authoritative music station to hit the charts, which doesn't cost much money at all, even if you can make a name for yourself. Hire a director who is good at making music short films, the price is not expensive, and it can't be compared with film and television drama directors. Even Zhou Yi thinks that this kind of work, maybe the giant can do it in the company, aren't they the giant engagement?

In Zhou Yi's eyes, Sister Chu's great ability has really become all-powerful.

Editor Sun, who is in his thirties and is considered a senior music editor, talked to his boss about the current situation of the department.

In fact, there has been a meeting within the music department to discuss it.

The music department must do this kind of thing, and the music short film will also be filmed, but there is no need to rush at the moment, the timing is not right. Editor Sun and Zhou Yi said that like those more authoritative online music stations in the industry, or TV music stations, their recommendations and rankings are all based on relationships, and they go through the back door, there is no fairness at all, and the lists are basically monopolized by the big record companies in the industry, they are the main customers, and even if small companies come up with advertising fees, it is useless, and people will not offend large companies at all.

Even if Jeongdong Music's songs are good and the production quality is high, it is not very famous, and it is too difficult to come up with it.

Those songs at the top of the charts are good, but do they have to be the best? Not necessarily.

The editors of those music stations receive a lot of music CDs from small companies every day, all kinds, there are so many, who cares? In the end, it will only be a pearl in the dust, who made you not famous! is not famous, there is no large number of fans and music fans, even if the song is taken to the charts, the website will not recommend it, and it still can't be rushed. It's not something that can be determined by the quality of the song alone.

There is no saying in the industry that if you sing well, you will definitely be famous.

Society is very realistic, there are not so many naïve things.

Zhou Yi understands this truth, and it seems that the list really can't be rushed.

Large companies have the advantages and disadvantages of large companies, and small companies have advantages and disadvantages of small companies.

If the Dynasty Band goes to a big record company, it will be difficult for them to get ahead within the company, and they have to start from the bottom, but once they come out, their careers will be smooth, and of course they may be squeezed a little harder by the company, and economic disputes may even break out. Job hopping is a common occurrence in the industry.

Now they have come to a small start-up company like Zhengdong, although they are very good within the company, and even a veteran member of the music department, they don't have to start from the bottom, but it is difficult to get ahead in the industry, and they also need opportunities and hard work, but they will earn more in the future. In terms of profit sharing, Zhengdong will not squeeze them. They are all aware of these advantages and disadvantages, and they still choose to join Zhengdong, which shows that they do have their own plans.

How can there be anything in this world that only takes advantage and does not suffer?

There is that kind of good thing, I'm afraid Zhou Yi will grab it first.

In fact, Zhengdong Music does have its own unique advantages, that is, it can rely on film and television dramas to develop, because Zhengdong Pictures has to shoot a lot of movies and TV series every year, and film and television drama soundtracks and various theme songs are a big part of the business. If this business is done well, the Dynasty Band and Zheng Longshi will easily become famous. When a TV series becomes popular, the theme song interlude will naturally follow it, and the singer will also become popular.

That's the advantage of due east.

Other record companies, even big record companies, if they don't shoot their own film and television dramas, it is not easy to have this advantage. If you want to make the theme song of a TV series, you must compete with other record companies, and the situation is very cruel and tragic.

But it's much easier to do these additional businesses within Zhengdong, and no one can compete with the Dynasty Band.

The film and television dramas made by Zhengdong Pictures themselves must use their own people to make the soundtrack and theme song, and it is impossible to outsource it to others.

Then the Dynasty Band and Zheng Longshi have many more opportunities than others.

Even if they do a good job in this part, even if they don't use the music station to hit the charts, they have many opportunities to become popular.

I guess the Dynasty Band takes this very seriously. Su Jian agreed to join the dynasty to join Zhengdong, I am afraid that he is also optimistic about this aspect, and the dynasty band can take a ride. Zheng Longshi doesn't care, he still has to go to school for further study, so he is naturally not in a hurry at present.

Now the company's music department is in a meeting, and that's what we can do.

Liang Yirong asked the Dynasty Band to concentrate on the soundtrack of the film and television drama first, and then do a good job of the theme song of the TV series. Zheng Longshi naturally wants to try his best to fight for the final ranking of The Voice, and if he can really rank in the top few, his fame will naturally go out. With such fame, many things are easy to do. Like some senior brothers and sisters in the school who hold concerts, even if they are very famous big-name singers, they are also qualified to be warm-up guests.

When the number of fans accumulates to a certain number, it is naturally not difficult to make a music short film and take it to the music station to hit the charts.

At that time, it will be easier to become popular, and then you can release records and hold concerts. Now, of course, there's no need to rush.

The Dynasty Band agrees with this and understands this.

Zheng Longshi naturally has no opinion.

At the end of the day, they now have good lyrics and music in hand, and they have a foundation for success.

For other things, as long as there are senior experts in the industry in charge of trading, it is not a big problem.

Although the record industry is not booming these days, good singers can still make a lot of money.

Even though it has been hit by a large number of free songs on the Internet, the laws and regulations on copyright in today's Huaxia are very strict, and there is no situation where genuine songs are downloaded on the Internet as in the previous life. Listening is free to listen to, but regular websites generally do not provide high-quality music download services, and spending money to buy genuine music is the best way. Moreover, in today's world, the country is strong, the people are rich, and the people generally have a strong sense of copyright, even if they have heard free songs on the Internet, they are willing to spend money to buy some excellent records, and the sales of records will naturally be guaranteed.

The situation of the Chinese record industry in the present life is indeed much better than that of the same period in the previous life, similar to the situation in Europe and the United States in the previous life. Of course, shocks are inevitable. Compared with before, the record industry is naturally a little sluggish, but compared with the tragic situation in the previous life, it is very prosperous.

However, the main income of big-name singers is still concentrated in running concert tours and advertising endorsements.

This is quite similar to the situation in the previous life.

Zhou Yi has some understanding of these industry conditions.

And the cohesion and centripetal force of the Zhengdong music department today are indeed very strong.

Everyone wants to do a good job and start a career.

For the current situation of the company's music department, Editor Sun and their middle-level employees are very satisfied, after all, they are backed by a film company, and it is obviously a company with a background, and the music department does not have to start from scratch, so it is naturally easy to develop.

For example, Editor Sun is a music editor recruited by Zhengdong from a small record company in the industry.

He was not born in a prestigious school, and his early future was naturally incomparable with those students from famous schools, and he was a little downcast, but he specialized in arranging, and also joined a music studio to help others record singles, but he did a small business. I don't make much money.

Later, he got married and wanted to have a stable job, so he joined a small company.

According to his own words, in fact, he doesn't make much money in a small record company, but he is better than stability, and he usually has no important work to do. Their company usually pays attention to some online singers who seem to have potential, and he will help with some packaging and promotion work.

Usually, he will buy some original music that is relatively complete on some original music websites or copyright websites. Those music are not famous works, big record companies can't look at them, and small companies can receive them, which is a little leftovers.

After getting the complete music copyright, their company will re-produce and package it to help the signed online singer do publicity and promotion.

They are all small productions, and they don't cost much money at all, generally at a cost of one or two thousand Chinese yuan, they can make two or three more decent songs, if they are willing to spend one or two thousand yuan, it is no problem to make an album, and then make a music short film and make a radio version, and they can be sent to the music station and the radio to hit the charts. Then get some small online video interviews, and it's all over the place.

If a singer can become popular, it is naturally good, but if he can't become popular, there is a way.

In fact, in most cases, singers can't become popular at all.

Then the company can make some ringtones to sell, which is also the way to survive, and make money according to the share of clicks. Over the course of a year, they can earn a few hundred yuan for a song, and a good one can earn a few thousand yuan, which is not a problem, and they will definitely be able to recover the cost, but it is impossible to make a lot of money.

In this way, music editors naturally don't make much money.

Even if he occasionally has a discerning eye and can pick out a good song, he won't get much of a share.

In this case, it is naturally easy to poach, and now Editor Sun has been dug up by Zhengdong.

The job in the music department of Jeongdong is also very stable, and it is good to have a stable income in normal times.

Especially in the music department, there is a lot of film and television business, and everyone always has something to do, which is very good.

Zhengdong Company previously chose a small record company to poach the role, which is a reasonable thing. The music editors of big record companies are not easy to dig, and it is easy to offend the big guys. Persimmon of course to pick soft pinch. This is common sense in the industry. Small companies can't retain talent.

Zhengdong is not strong enough now, and he doesn't want to cause trouble casually, especially in the early stage of development, it is enough to poach people from some small record companies. What's more, music editors are not the core backbone of the department, so it's better to dig some, as long as there are people available.

Editor Sun came to Zhengdong and felt that the situation was much better. Zhengdong's main business is movies, and it depends on movies to make a lot of money, while music is dependent on the film business. Zhengdong doesn't care about that little money at all, and he doesn't care if the music department can make a profit in the short term. Zhengdong wants to take the right path above board, so naturally he will not take those detours on the Internet, and he will not buy messy song copyrights online at all.

Those songs that are casually sold on the Internet, how can there be any good songs!

The price of a fully arranged and mixed song does not exceed 500 Chinese dollars.

Can that be a good song? Maybe it's something that came up with something.

Zhengdong won't buy that kind of thing, even if you occasionally go through the waves and sand, it is not worth the time and effort to find a good song. Zhou Yi's creative ability is top-notch, Liang Yirong and Meng Shaoguang can also create, and the Dynasty Band can actually do a lot of creation.

In terms of creation, in fact, Zhengdong has no shortage of resources, so it's okay.

The most satisfying thing for Editor Sun is that although Zhengdong's music department has just set up a framework, it has a good momentum of development, not only with industry veterans at the helm, but also with lead singers and bands, and there is still great potential, so the market is naturally optimistic.

In terms of singers alone, he is much better than the company he worked for before.

Those non-professional Internet singers can't be compared with the grass stage team at all.

In this way, everyone can see a bright future and be naturally motivated.

Now the situation in the music department is very good, and Zhou Yi is very relieved. He plans to write a few more interludes and ending songs as soon as possible to completely complete the theme song of the TV series. There are senior masters in the production of songs, so he doesn't have to worry about it at all.
