Chapter 14 Happy Cooperation
Dare to say that it is tailor-made, more of which Lin Xingchen hopes that the songs plagiarized in advance can return to the name of the original singer. Naturally, I don't want to change too much of the inherent history because of my own plagiarism.
Of the three songs sent to Haidi this time, in addition to two of Jinsha's famous masterpieces, there is also one 'Cao Cao' that came out in advance. sent three famous songs to Haidi at one time, naturally wanting to add some bargaining chips.
In fact, from the first time he saw Jinsha, Lin Xingchen was very convinced. The girl in front of him, who is not a few years older than him, is now being popular with sea saucers. The two songs customized for her are enough to impress the top management of the sea saucer company.
If these two songs, Hai Disc intends to use them to praise other singers. Then Lin Xingchen will feel that this is a little unfair to Sands. That means that the works he plagiarized in advance began to affect the trajectory of some people's lives.
As a person watching the excitement today, Jinsha is also full of curiosity about Lin Xingchen. But when I heard that the two songs sent by Lin Xingchen were tailor-made for her, I was still a little happy in my heart. Looking at Lin Xingchen's eyes, there was also a hint of friendliness.
After a short period of surprise, Bi Xiao said with a smile: "It seems that Mr. Lin is still full of confidence in the works he creates. Don't worry, before you came, the song you wrote especially for JJ, he himself liked it very much.
As for the other two songs, 'Parallel Lines' and 'Incredible', the company has decided to include them in Sasha's album to be released next year. Sasha came with me this time, which is enough to show that she likes these two songs very much.
It's just a business, and we asked Mr. Lin out today, and we also came to negotiate with sincerity. If the price is too outrageous, we can only express regrets. So, Mr. Lin can say what you can accept about the selling price. ”
For this kind of negotiation, Lin Xingchen is not a complete rookie. immediately smiled and said, "Director Bi asked me to bid, but I'm afraid it's really embarrassing for me." As you should know, I'm a newcomer to this industry and don't understand the rules of the circle.
As long as my work can be affirmed and will not be impersonated, I really don't care about the price. Of course, if the price could be higher, then I would be happier. After all, the price means how much the work is valued! ”
In a word, although Lin Xingchen didn't expect it, he made a fortune by plagiarizing these songs. But he really needs money now, otherwise he wouldn't plagiarize songs and sell them for money. But he really doesn't know how much an original song can sell.
If he is a well-known composer, the price of a song can be very high. But the problem is, he's still a newcomer. The quality of the work must be known after it is launched for market inspection. To test the waters, the price naturally cannot be expected too high.
Seeing that Lin Xingchen refused to bid, Bi Xiao also felt that the young man in front of him still knew some business negotiation skills. After all, as long as the other party offers a price, he can pay it back if it is too high, and if it is too low, he can agree to it.
But if he bids, he doesn't think it's worth it. If it is low, it will make the other party feel that he is not sincere. This situation made Bi Xiao, the music director, difficult to say the specific price for a while.
On the contrary, it was Jinsha, who saw that the two seemed to be competing, and suddenly took off his sunglasses. revealed a pure and sweet face and said, "Mr. Lin, thank you very much for the two songs you wrote for me." Personally, I like the style and melody of these two pieces.
Although I don't know much about the price of an original song. But I know that the price of a master's work is generally at least around 100,000. Most of the newcomers' works are floating around 10,000.
No matter how much the company bids, I am willing to pay an extra 10,000 yuan per song, which can be regarded as a token of gratitude to Mr. Lin. Director, I hope that my self-assertion will not make you feel embarrassed. I really like these two songs! ”
In the face of Jinsha's unauthorized decision, Bi Xiao also felt a little helpless. But he knew very well that when he came to Mingzhu, Jinsha was already in the recording studio and tried to record these two songs. The recording effect is very good.
According to the company's music producer, both songs can be used as title songs. This means that the price of the song, compared to other songs added to the album, naturally needs to be increased.
Thinking of this, Bi Xiao could only say helplessly: "Mr. Lin, I believe you have also seen that Shasha really likes these two songs." And the price she said before is indeed the current market in the circle.
If Mr. Lin doesn't mind, I will buy the copyright of these two songs at the highest newcomer price, 10,000 yuan each. Mr. Wakabayashi thinks it's too low, so we can continue to discuss. ”
Faced with the bids of the two that did not seem to be fake, Lin Xingchen quickly said: "I said earlier, I am a fan of Miss Sands. It is naturally my honor to be able to get her love for the songs I wrote.
I can also see Director Bi's sincerity. So, I have no objection to the price you offered. But there is one thing that I must explain beforehand. In terms of the name of the author who composed the music and lyrics, I don't want to see other people's names in the name.
Director Bi is also a musician, and he should know that every author treats his works like his own children. I don't want to see my child given someone else's name. I hope Director Bi understands this request! ”
Seeing Lin Xingchen so readily agreed to the sale price, Bi Xiao also felt that the other party was really easy to talk to. Ordinary shrewd and sophisticated composers, seeing the way Jinsha looked just now, will definitely sit on the ground and raise the price.
Regarding Lin Xingchen's request, Bi Xiao naturally had no opinion. Soon smiled and said, "Okay, we can write this into the contract." In case of violation, Mr. Lin can file a complaint with the court at any time.
Of course, we also hope that the songs written by Mr. Lin are original by you. If someone raises objections in the future, they should show the corresponding evidence to prove that these two songs were not created by Mr. Lin.
Then the corresponding losses are only afraid that Mr. Lin will have to bear them. I think Mr. Lin should know this. In this circle, the losses caused by plagiarizing other people's works are very strict. I hope Mr. Lin will forgive me! ”
understands that Bi Xiao deliberately said this, but I am afraid that he has doubts about his creative ability. Lin Xingchen didn't say much, and directly took out two certificates from the computer bag in his hand and handed them over.
said with a smile: "Director Bi, rest assured, although I am a newcomer, it doesn't mean that I don't understand the rules of the circle." Even I, like Director Bi, hate plagiarism of other people's work.
In order to prevent future disputes, it is impossible to determine who plagiarized whom. Every song I send is notarized by a department with notarization qualifications. Legally, this is also valid evidence that I am the original creator. ”
Looking at the two notarial deeds presented by the Pearl Notary Office, although it doesn't explain anything. But Bi Xiao knew very well that the young man in front of him was still very sophisticated. No wonder he dared to be so confident that he sent his work to a music company.
With this notarization, there is a real case of misappropriation of the work. Lin Xingchen can use these notarial deeds to sue those companies that steal the works. In this way, the company that steals the work will pay a lot of money.
Jinsha, who was sitting on the side, was also the first time to see someone take something like an original song to a notary office for notarization. Although it only shows the time when the song was written, there is also a copy of the song.
But these two things can prove that Lin Xingchen created the time and melody of these songs. If these songs are stolen by someone impersonating. For both notarized and notarized parties, the former is naturally more likely to win in court.
As Bi Xiao took out the contract, he signed his name on behalf of the company. Lin Xingchen was also very careful, checked the terms of the contract, and found that there were no traps, so he happily signed his name.
Perhaps because he had been prepared, after the contract was signed, Bi Xiao paid Lin Xingchen a one-time fee of 50,000 yuan. Looking at Wuzha's brand-new hundred-yuan bill, Lin Xingchen didn't show too excited expressions.
On the contrary, he didn't point at all, and put the five large bills directly into the handbag. This action made Bi Xiao feel more and more that this young man was not simple. began to probe it, hoping to deepen the relationship between the two sides.
Thinking of this, Bi Xiao smiled and said, "Brother Lin, I don't know, have you ever thought about signing a contract with our Haidi and becoming an external composer hired by the company?" Our company is in great need of an excellent composer like my brother to join.
Of course, the treatment given by the company to the contracted composers is definitely more generous than today's cooperation. And our conditions are also very relaxed, and there are not too many mandatory indicators and requirements. Brother Lin, are you interested? ”
It is clear that with the increase in the number of singers under the company, the demand for excellent composers has also increased. Bi Xiao is very optimistic about Lin Xingchen's creative talent, so he will take the initiative to invite the other party to join and give him very worthy of the solicitation conditions.
originally thought that Lin Xingchen would be very happy about this kind of invitation. As a result, Lin Xingchen shook his head very directly and said: "Thank you Brother Bi for your kindness, now I should still focus on my studies." For the time being, I didn't think about joining any company.
In addition, my main direction in the future should be in film and television creation. If there is an opportunity to cooperate in the future, I believe I will still look for you Haidi. After all, our cooperation today is very pleasant, and this is also a good foundation for future cooperation! ”
As a freshman in an art school, I can give up the opportunity to enter the circle so happily. In Jinsha's view, Lin Xingchen is either a fool or really confident. But for some reason, she felt that the reason for the other party's rejection was more inclined to the latter!
