Genius one second to remember the address of this site: (vertex Chinese)., the fastest update! No ads!

It has been raining heavily in Cloud City for several days. /p

/p

Liang Xiaoyue is writing songs in the office, he also writes songs himself, as a top student who graduated from the composition department, his talent in arranging is very powerful, before Lin Ming joined Taomu, Taomu's original music was almost supported by him alone. /p

/p

It was raining heavily outside the window, but that didn't affect his creative spirit. It even gave him some inspiration, listening to the sound of raindrops crashing on the glass, and a melodious music sounded in his head. /p

/p

He was about to record this inspiration when a sharp knock at the door dispelled the train of thought in his head, making him say with great displeasure, "Come in." ”/p

/p

It was Director Xiang of the marketing department who came in, and Liang Xiaoyue said dissatisfiedly: "What's the matter, didn't you say don't come to disturb me?" ”/p

/p

Director Xiang said embarrassedly: "Mr. Hou went to Guangdong Province, but the phone was not answered, this matter is very important, I can only come over and ask you." Director Xiang actually got a notice that when Mr. Liang was creating, he didn't like to be disturbed, but he couldn't call the shots in this matter, so he could only knock on the door. /p

/p

"What's the matter?" /p

/p

"Yamaha Music Company, the record company of the island country, just contacted us by email and said that their company's big star Miyuki Nakajima liked "The First Dream" very much, and hoped that we could license it to her and change it into a Japanese song." /p

/p

"Miyuki Nakajima?" /p

/p

Liang Xiaoyue suddenly stood up from the chair and said with a happy brow: "Are you sure it's Miyuki Nakajima?" ”/p

/p

"Yes." /p

/p

"it." Liang Xiaoyue, a gentle and elegant person, actually said a dirty word. He excitedly walked around the office like a baboon and said, "It's really an honor that Aunt Xue actually took a fancy to our company's song. Authorize, send an email to reply to the authorization immediately. ”/p

/p

"But"/p

/p

"But what?" /p

/p

"But the copyright is in the hands of Mr. Lin." /p

/p

"Oh." /p

/p

Liang Xiaoyue patted his forehead, and was so excited that he almost forgot about it. immediately said: "You go and communicate with that side first, and I'll call Mr. Lin now." ”/p

/p

"Okay." /p

/p

When Director Xiang went out, Liang Xiaoyue immediately took out his mobile phone and called Lin Ming. /p

/p

Miyuki Nakajima is Liang Xiaoyue's idol, just like the post-80s and 90s who are crazy about Jay Chou, and the post-70s generation like Liang Xiaoyue also has many admired musicians. Among them, Miyuki Nakajima, Aunt Xue, is one of Liang Xiaoyue's favorite idols. Liang Xiaoyue embarked on the road of music and was greatly influenced by her. /p

/p

In order to let the idol get the authorization, Liang Xiaoyue completely abandoned his personal interests and the interests of the company, and directly became a fanatical fan and called Lin Ming. /p

/p

It's afternoon. /p

/p

Lin Ming was actually in class now, but when he saw Liang Xiaoyue calling, he said sorry to Li Yi, and walked out to answer the call. /p

/p

Li Yi's house was on the first floor, and he wore a pair of slippers from the back door to the yard. /p

/p

Lin Ming answered the call from Liang Xiaoyue outside. /p

/p

"What's wrong, Mr. Liang." /p

/p

"Lin Ming, good news. Miyuki Nakajima, Aunt Xue sent an email, saying that she liked "The First Dream" and hoped that we would authorize the adaptation. Aunt Xue, do you know her? ”/p

/p

Miyuki Nakajima? /p

/p

Listening to Liang Xiaoyue's words, Lin Ming was surprised and a little embarrassed. /p

/p

Of course Miyuki Nakajima knows him, as a post-80s generation, he has heard many classic songs of this 50-year-old lady. However, I listened not to the Japanese version, but to the Chinese version. Because many famous songs in the harbor city of Treasure Island are adapted from Aunt Xue's songs. Like Ren Xianqi's sad Pacific Ocean, Teresa Teng's stroll knows the way, Faye Wong's easily injured woman, the world, etc., according to statistics, there are no less than 100 songs covering Aunt Xue's songs on the side of Hong Kong City Treasure Island, all of which are high-quality boutiques. So much so that in her later life, she was even called the woman who fed the entire Hong Kong City Treasure Island music scene, and was jokingly said by netizens that she alone supported half of the Chinese music scene. /p

/p

To put it simply, this old lady is a national treasure-level diva of the island country, a palace-level singer, ranked very high among Asian palace-level singers, and is also the world's No. 1 mezzo-soprano, after Teresa Teng's death, Asia's most well-known female singer. But even before Teresa Teng died, she couldn't hide her own brilliance. /p

/p

The most important thing is that Aunt Xue is still the original of "The First Dream", and the name of the original work is "Riding on the Back of the Silver Dragon". Now people suddenly came to the door, which made Lin Ming feel that Li Ghost was caught by Li Kui, which was very embarrassing. /p

/p

Although "Riding on the Back of the Silver Dragon" is very good, and it is more meaningful than the lyrics of "The First Dream", compared with Aunt Xue's other world-famous works, this song is not particularly conspicuous in her work library, and it has not won particularly good results on the list. Lin Ming thought that after copying this song, Aunt Xue shouldn't find anything abnormal. But he still underestimated Aunt Xue's intuition about music, "Riding on the Back of the Silver Dragon" is the theme song she wrote for a TV series called "Five Islands Doctor's Clinic", the silver dragon in the lyrics is the bicycle that the protagonist rides to work every day in the TV series, representing a kind of sunrise and hope, and also representing dreams. /p

/p

This TV series is about to start filming at the end of this year and is expected to be released in July 2003, so before filming started, I asked Aunt Xue to help write a song, and Aunt Xue wrote a small part, and one day I overheard Zhang Ziqi's "The First Dream" and found that the melody in it was almost exactly the same as the melody I wrote. /p

/p

"The First Dream" is now very popular in Asia, especially in the domestic market, and almost all radio and TV about music have been talking about this song overnight, not only singing on the streets, but also trending on the charts. But there is no more authoritative list in China at present, so if you want to rely on this song to hit the list, you have to go to Hong Kong City and Baodao. Because the music of these two places is interconnected with the music of the island country, it is easy to spread to the island country. After all, island countries also attach great importance to the status of Hong Kong City and Baodao Music in the Asian market, and pay more attention to the markets in these two places. In this way, Yamaha got the hottest song in the mainland. /p

/p

Among them is "The First Dream", after Aunt Xue heard it, she simply stopped writing and continued. Because her thoughts and ideas are exactly the same as the melody of this song, it seems that there is a suspicion of plagiarism if she writes it down, so she asked the agency to find Peachwood Music, hoping that they will authorize her to adapt and cover the song. /p

/p

Before 2002, Aunt Xue had never covered Chinese music. It's always been someone else covering her songs, and now one day she suddenly wants to cover other songs, which makes her feel a novelty. /p

/p

But there is nothing to be ashamed of, Teresa Teng, Sister Fei, these top celebrities, cover no less than forty or fifty of her songs, and occasionally cover someone else's, it's not a big deal. As a world-class singer, she covers someone else's song once, strictly speaking, it is actually someone else's honor. /p

/p

It's just that Aunt Xue didn't think so, she just liked this song very much. /p

/p

Hearing that Aunt Xue came to Taomu to ask for authorization, the most embarrassing thing was, of course, Lin Ming. There is a feeling of being caught and caught at the scene, and the thief meets the owner. But he quickly straightened his mind and said, "Of course I know Aunt Xue, she is my idol." With Aunt Xue's musical status, it is our honor to ask us for authorization. ”/p

/p

"You agree?" /p

/p

"Of course." /p

/p

Liang Xiaoyue said happily: "That's okay, I'll reply immediately." ”/p

/p

Lin Ming hurriedly said, "Teacher Liang will wait, this is a good opportunity." We can use this opportunity to build a good relationship with Yamaha Music Company, and we can even invite Aunt Xue to come to the mainland for concerts in the future, so you must not just reply to an authorization, it is better to let their people come to the mainland to sign a contract with us. ”/p

/p

"Of course, you need to sign a license agreement to authorize." Liang Xiaoyue was puzzled: "But Yamaha is also a music giant in an island country, how can a small company like us have a good relationship with us?" At most, I just sent some small staff from the company. ”/p

/p

Lin Ming said: "Stupid, Mr. Liang, I suddenly had an idea, isn't our Taomu Music Festival this year going to be held in October?" This is a great opportunity. Why don't we invest 10 million yuan and invite all the gods to sing on stage, including Aunt Xue, as well as Sister Fei, Andy, and Brother Wu Fly, please all of them. This is the best opportunity to establish our festival giant, with advertisements all over the country, publicity and live broadcast on local TV stations. To be a drunken top-notch music event, in this way, it will almost lay the foundation for our status as a music giant in one fell swoop, and the fame will reach its peak with this event. ”/p

/p

Liang Xiaoyue was dumbfounded when he heard it. /p

/p

Lin Ming's old problem was made again, and it was only less than a month before he wanted to make a big move. /p

/p

And this big move is even more terrifying than the previous few times, this time it is almost to hollow out the entire Taomu company, shuttle away, and make a big gamble at one time. /p

/p

How much does it cost to sing these top celebrities? Andy asked him to hold a concert in the mainland in 2000, 3 million. A song ranges from hundreds of thousands to millions. Sister Fei and Brother Wu Fly's net worth is not low, similar to him, and even in the music world, Brother Wu Fly is a little higher than Andy. /p

/p

Because Brother Wu Fly is the second generation of singers, and he is also the top male singer in the Chinese entertainment industry at that time. A song "Kiss Goodbye" was sung all over the country, and in the era of tape recorders, even the vast rural areas in China were playing in loops everywhere, which shows how high his appearance fee is. /p

/p

Invite these big coffees to come, then all the money that Taomu has earned in the past two months will have to be taken out, not to mention, and may even have to be posted upside down. Because holding concerts and music festivals is not very profitable, this is the record company needs to do such things to maintain the fan market in order to maintain the popularity of stars and safeguard the interests of the company. /p

/p

And now Lin Ming wants to make a big news, once the music festival is done, it is indeed very likely to be in place in one step, and directly turn the Taomu Music Festival, which has been done for two sessions, into a national landmark music festival. But once it is not done, it will not only lose all its money, but also make the originally thriving company suddenly return to the pre-liberation period. You also have to be mentally prepared to smash the music festival brand. Because before that, the Peachwood Music Festival was dominated by modern pop music and rock music, attracting many young people who love rock and roll. But now in Lin Ming's hands, it has suddenly become a pop festival, and the group of listeners of rock music may not come, tickets will not be sold, and the sign will be smashed. /p

/p

So when Liang Xiaoyue heard Lin Ming's proposal, his head shook like a rattle, and he refused repeatedly: "No, no, no, I won't allow you to continue like this." ”/p

/p

Lin Ming said, "Don't worry, Mr. Liang, my proposal must be well-founded." When Mr. Hou returns, he will immediately hold a meeting on my proposal. Trust me, don't you know what I'm capable of? Since I have a way to make the company grow rapidly in two months, I have a way to make it more brilliant and become a domestic giant. ”/p

/p

"You really don't want to make a decision with a pat on the head." Liang Xiaoyue now regretted calling him a little, and hurriedly said bitterly: "Anything, it's best to do it after careful consideration, every time you make a proposal, I am terrified, for fear that the company will not recover, you are playing with fire by doing this, do you know?" Why can't we develop step by step and climb up slowly, why do we have to make such a leap forward, why take such a risk? You have to understand that this company is not only a company of the four of us, but there are so many artists and employees down there. Once the company collapses, we can not worry about food and clothing, but what about the employees below? You have to think a little bit about them. ”/p

/p

After pondering for a while on the other side of the phone, Lin Ming said: "I know Mr. Liang, but I think this proposal can still be done, don't worry, I will think of a foolproof solution, and then make a proposal to the board of directors after not letting the company collapse." If you think it's still risky, it's never too late to object. ”/p

/p

Liang Xiaoyue saw that he insisted on going his own way, so he could only nod and say: "Okay, you make the proposal first, if we feel that it is not good for the company." We will definitely oppose it, so let's go and send a message back to Aunt Xue, and I'll let you know when Mr. Hou comes back. ”/p
