Chapter 8: Huayi Music
Zhou Shaohuai is very happy, because he has finally become an official film singer. This means that he is still the first of the junior students at the Central Conservatory of Music, better than Liegerson.
Cui Zhongshi is also very happy, he has just signed an agreement with the three major channel providers in the background, and the first batch of this album will be distributed nationwide for 200,000 yuan, and at the same time occupy the most conspicuous position in major video stores.
Although Huayi has made an important compromise in terms of sharing, there is no way, this is the unspoken rule of the industry.
Choi didn't want to challenge the rules.
He thinks it's stupid for Gold Gale to try to change the landscape of the industry.
After all, the entertainment industry is a circle, and if foreign intruders don't follow the rules of the industry, aren't they killing themselves? Now Gold Medal Gale has three albums with hot sales, everyone is holding you, and when you are powerless, these channel providers will definitely show their hideous faces and eat you dry.
The press conference was very successful, Zhou Shaohuai sang the recent hot single with a super high topic, Sun Yanan, the king of Huayi Music, and Nana, the queen of heaven, also congratulated him on the spot. The rest of the artists also cheered for this little junior brother through VCR.
When the grand press conference ended, Zhou Shaohuai was arranged by the company's publicity director to accept a group interview with reporters.
In the first few questions, the reporters were very polite and acted according to the propaganda plan.
But towards the end, the reporter took the lead in asking the crucial question.
"Shaohuai, have you paid attention to Fengyun Music Network? At noon today, the music network suddenly uploaded two songs written and composed by Zhang Ruofeng, these two songs are very similar to your new songs, may I ask... Was there some kind of involvement between each other before? “
As soon as the reporter's question came out, Zhou Shaohuai was stunned.
Then, an embarrassed response: "Sorry, I don't have the relevant dynamics at the moment, so I can't answer your question." ”
"Just five minutes ago, Fengyun Music Network uploaded a video of Rong Xin'er's testimony, in which she said that your song was plagiarized. Do you know anything about this? “
Another reporter threw out a sharp question. This reporter is from the entertainment channel of Zhongnan Satellite TV, she just received a call from Taiwan, and she must ask this question at the press conference, and Zhongnan Satellite TV will do a program.
Zhou Shaohuai only made his official debut today, and he didn't face many inquiries from reporters, so under the reporter's aggressive questions, he looked very uncomfortable, and beads of sweat fell down the size of beans.
"I don't understand what you're talking about." That's all he can say.
At this time, the propaganda director next to him reacted quickly, and he hurriedly played a round: "Fellow journalists, there must be some kind of misunderstanding in this, and we will negotiate with the other party in time." “
"You can ask more questions about this album, thank you."
After the publicity director finished speaking, Zhou Shaohuai simply answered a few questions, and then announced the end of the interview.
……
"Rong Xin'er, this eats something outside the inside." Cui Zhongshi roared angrily in the background.
None of the executives on the side dared to speak.
"What about Duan Jianlun?" Cui Zhongshi shouted.
Duan Jianlun, who was standing in the corner, hurriedly walked over.
"You can't even tell the difference between one song and two songs, how dare Hait say that he's a producer?" Cui Zhongshi yelled at him: "I've seen shame, I've never seen you so ashamed." ”
Duan Jianlun lowered his head and didn't dare to speak.
He listened to those two songs on the Internet just now, and immediately knew that he was completely planted this time.
As soon as those two songs come out, as long as someone with a little discernment ability, can clearly know that that one will be a complete patchwork of plagiarism.
Alas, who would have thought that Zhang Ruofeng's kid would sing the two songs together.
Duan Jianlun complained in his heart.
At the time, he also felt a little out of bounds. But on second thought, this may be a special form of artistic expression, deliberately using this feeling of staggered alienation to progressively emotions.
However....
"Boss, the most important thing for us right now is... Crisis PR. The publicity director reminded in a whisper: "If this topic is allowed to ferment, it will be very detrimental to the sales of the new album." ”
Cui Zhongshi blushed and said, "Go talk to the gold medal gale, let them not use the topic to play." Let's just say that we are willing to privately transfer a certain copyright transfer fee. ”
"At the same time, say hello to the media and ask them to suppress the matter."
"If the gold medal is full of wind, or if you have to be unforgiving, you will put all this matter on Duan Jianlun, it is he who did it."
Cui Zhongshi didn't mind sacrificing Duan Jianlun at all.
Duan Jianlun listened to it in horror.
"But... In the end, this will still affect the image of our Huayi Music. ”
Said the director of publicity.
"Influence is impact. Anyway, the music is just chicken ribs, I don't make much money, and I have to worry about it. ”
Cui Zhongshi dropped these words, turned around and left.
For him, Huayi Music is just the least profitable small sector under Huayi.
From the moment when the gold medal gale failed and the national copyright carried out the reform of copyright laws and regulations, he thought about giving up this sector and concentrating on operating film and television, after all, these two aspects are the main source of profits.
As Cui Zhongshi brushed his sleeves away, the remaining Huayi Music executives looked depressed one by one.
"Hurry up and contact the Gold Medal Gale."
Rao Geng was the first to react, and now they are not only trying to save Zhou Shaohuai's album, but more importantly, saving themselves.
If the boss really leaves the music sector alone and leaves it to its own devices, then it is self-evident how tragic the result will be.
The phone was dialed quickly, but when he said the words Huayi Music, the other side hung up the phone directly.
When I called again, I refused to listen.
"It's over!"
Rao Geng was burned at that time.
He has dealt with Huayi and knows that this company does not play according to the routine at all, and does not give anyone face at all.
"Quickly notify the public relations department, contact the major media, and ask them to suppress this news, and absolutely not let this matter expand."
Rao Geng hurriedly arranged the next move.
However, two hours later. A message came from the PR department.
"CCTV has made relevant news, and has received the approval of the State Administration of Copyright, and they will make a special report tonight. PR is no longer effective. ”
Finished!
Heaven will die for me!
Rao Geng's whole person almost didn't fall to the ground.
Now there are only the last two ways to deal with it, first, let Duan Jianlun come forward to withstand all the artillery fire.
Second, be silent and wait for the limelight to pass.
These two plans are not good options for today's Huayi Music, because the boss has run out of patience.
