Chapter 898: Ye Zi's Worries
"Sister Hui, please find someone to keep an eye on this company a little more, and it's best to find out if they have such a plan. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info if any, how is their schedule arranged. Ye Zi said casually while recalling the situation of DD Company and that album in his memory.
Yutai Wenhui was stunned.
"Little leaf, you won't, right? Where could I possibly get such news? This already involves the trade secrets of the other company. Xiaoyezi, what do you want to do? ”
"Huh? Hehe......" Ye Zi was slightly stunned, then scratched his head with a smile: "Then forget it, Sister Hui, that's what I said." ”
"I'm not a little ...... A little worried...... I'm worried about that. ”
Speaking of his worries, Ye Zi was a little distracted.
However, Tai Wenhui has been rolling in this circle for so many years, even if Ye Zi doesn't say it, how can he not see what he thinks in his heart?
What Wenhui just said is not wrong at all, this already involves trade secrets, and it is not something that can be heard casually. But in fact, it doesn't matter if you inquire or not, when the other party really starts to operate this album, there will inevitably be a little rumor first, and Ye Zi can make plans at that time. This was the case in the previous life, this album published in 94 began to be released in the media little by little in the first half of 93, and then in the second half of the year, DD Company began to hit the charts everywhere for publicity. It wasn't until the songs "You at the Same Table", "Youth", and "The Brother Who Slept on My Top Bunk" that the album was released while the situation was spread. What followed was the popularity of the album and the boom in the campus folk music trend.
In this world, there is such a variable as Ye Zi, and DD Company is nothing more than two choices.
The first is to publish this album before Ye Zi.
The advantage of this is that in case this type of song really becomes a new trend in the music world, they are the first to open up the trend, which is an extremely effective means for this record company that has just relocated to the mainland of China to start its own popularity, which will also establish the company's status and influence in the Chinese music scene, and the benefits are of course great. However, at the same time, they also have to bear the risk and serious consequences in case of failure, after all, they have just relocated to Yanjing this year, and their foothold is not stable, and their contacts, channels, resources, etc. must not be fully laid in a hurry, and whether it is the right time to start working on this album at this time is also something they need to seriously consider.
In addition, if they want to publish this album before Ye Zi, then they have to move fast. But in this way, there is a high probability that an album that could have been carefully selected and carefully crafted will become shoddy, and it is difficult to say whether fans will buy it at that time. This is also a situation that DD Company must seriously deal with.
If it is not easy to solve the above situation, DD Company is likely to adopt the method of following, and determine that this goal will first make some preliminary preparations - works, singers, producers, publicity channels, etc., and then determine its own steps according to the situation of Ye Zi's new album, whether to follow up in time or give up categorically. The advantage of this is that it can be targeted, steady, and does not have to take the risk of pathfinding.
Of course, risk is always closely linked to returns, if you choose to follow Ye Zi's strategy, then the most delicious soup they can't drink in their mouths, and the attempt to establish the company's reputation and status in the circle will also fail.
Where to go from here lies in DD's own decision-making.
……
Ye Zi didn't know how DD Company would choose how to do it, but considering the time factor, he knew that he was a little too worried just now. The so-called concern is chaotic, which is the situation that Ye Zi just had.
Although this is a Heung Kong record company, and its experience in album production is far greater than that of mainland China's record companies, they also have to follow the normal rules of record production. From the time DD company generated such an idea, to the feasibility verification of this idea and the final project of the album, and then to the step by step to gather the personnel to produce the album, this process is definitely not completed in two or three months, and it is quite good to be able to complete it in half a year. On Ye Zi's side, one-third of his new album has been completed, and the remaining two-thirds of the tracks have also been selected, as long as the quality and quantity are produced.
If nothing else, DD Company should not be able to snatch Ye Zi this time.
Taking a step back, even if DD Company thought of it and the process of album production was extremely fast, the quality of the album could be equally guaranteed, and they really published the "Campus Folk Song I" that was bound to be a hit before Ye Zi, and the impact on Ye Zi was not as great as he imagined.
In any case, "You at the Same Table" has now appeared and has been circulated in colleges and universities across the country, and the results of radio stations around the country are extremely good, which has deeply engraved the name "Ye Zi" in the record book of "Campus Folk Songs", and no one can shake it. Even if DD Company took the lead in publishing the album, resulting in Ye Zi not being absolutely complete in terms of honor, but the word "introduction" in the trend of "leading", through the singing of this fresh and excellent "You at the Same Table" in mainland China and the spread of radio charts, Ye Zi has done it.
This is a fact that no one can change, even if DD Company sold this album to a new record in the Huaxia record market (which is of course impossible), it is still Ye Zi who fired the first shot of the "campus folk song trend".
No one can take away this honor.
What's more, it's really unlikely that DD will start working on the album without verifying the viability of the album. You must know that they have just established themselves in the Chinese mainland, their heels have not yet been firmly established, and there are not many singers signed by the company, and the campus folk singers needed to record this album are still not ready, how to make this album? According to Ye Zi's memory, before DD Company produced and published this "Campus Folk Song I", it went through extremely careful commercial arguments and repeated arguments, and then it really began to work on this "big project".
Publishing such a trend-leading campus folk song album, where is it so simple.
……
It's quite troublesome to write and explain, in fact, these situations are basically clear in Ye Zi's flash, he has the situation of his previous life to refer to, and of course he will quickly distinguish some of the hidden news and situations.
So as soon as he said that sentence just now, Ye Zi looked a little surprised, he was really a little worried.
"Little leaf, what's so embarrassing about this?" Tantai Wenhui smiled: "I also want to know their plans, after all, we are all working on the same project, so we are naturally competitors." But I don't think we need to care too much about other people's practices, Xiaoyezi, you do a good job of the album, I do a good job of the publicity plan, then everything is OK. ”
"You say...... Isn't that the truth? ”
Ye Zi didn't speak, just nodded heavily.
"That's okay, then we'll arrange the plan according to the schedule we made today, Xiaoyezi, this time can't be changed." Tantai Wenhui smiled and patted Ye Zi, and then continued: "I'll go back to Xiangjiang tomorrow, and next month, don't forget to come to Xiangjiang to shoot MTV." By the way, didn't you do two other new songs? “
"Let's go and show it to me in the shed."
"If I have time, I will ask them to prepare the MTV of these two new songs, and then shoot them together."
