Chapter 11 The company has a newcomer again

The two songs that Li Yu took out that imitated the brainwashing style of 'JYP' were supported by the three high-level leaders, and the matter was decided. The two songs were given to Girls' Generation and SUJU respectively, and they will prepare for the return practice for the two songs for the rest of the year.

The two song companies paid 10 million won for the right to sing the songs, and the copyright of the songs belonged to Li Yu. In terms of sales copyrights, Li Yu will get 'one percent' income from the sale of physical albums. Because there are more songs in the physical album, there are more creators involved, and there are singers and artists' shares, so he only cares about 10% of the final album sales.

However, in terms of music source copyright, Li Yu only has 'one percent' income, because the website will eat one-third of the income, and the remaining two-thirds will be shared by the company, artists and creators.

Li Yu is not one of those top creators, he has not yet made any achievements in the Korean market, even if Zhang Liyin has achieved very good results in China with his songs, but in South Korea he is only a rookie creator, and he is also a trainee of the company, and the company gives the lowest commission.

But don't underestimate it, the copyright of the music source is only 'one percent' income. The most profitable thing about a song is not the sale of albums, but the paid downloads of music sources.

Those fanatical fans play songs for their favorite idols, and they have millions or even tens of millions of downloads every week.

The website here in Seoul is 100 won for each song downloaded, and 10 million downloads are 1 billion won, and Lee Yu gets 10 tenth, which is 100 million won!

But don't forget, there are four music platforms in South Korea, so there are four music websites. If the number of audio source downloads on each website is 10 million, Li Yu will receive 400 million won. And that's just the minimum...

This is also why those top creators in South Korea are very profitable, and a popular song will make the creators rich. Li Yu still remembers reading a report that Kim Yina, the creator of the song "Good Day" written for IU Lee Ji-eun, earned more than one billion won with the song "IU".

More than one billion won is equivalent to six or seven million Chinese dollars. Of course, Lee Ji-eun made more money with that song, and it is natural for singers to make money from commercial performances, but they also have to let the creator drink soup, right? This is the real virtuous circle!

If a Chinese music creator can earn five or six million copyright fees with a popular song, Li Yu believes that the music produced by Chinese musicians will definitely not be worse than overseas!

.......

The next day, Li Yu received 10 million won from the company. He went to school in the morning, went to the gym at noon, and then went to the practice room to practice with all the trainees.

There is no ban on playing songs from other companies in the company, Li Yu entered the passage of the practice room and heard the girls' class practicing the recently popular "Nobody", including some people in the boys' practice room.

Xiao Lu, Wu Sign, watched Li Yu change his appearance and walked over with a smile.

Xiao Lu smiled and said, "Oh, isn't this our little carp?" It's rare to see you lazy once yesterday, and after half a year, you finally know how to take a day off. You have a beautiful hairstyle, how much did it cost? ”

Li Yu responded with a smile: "The money is not much, 200,000 yuan." It's just a delay in time, and it will take four hours to perm your hair. ”

Wu Qian asked with a smile: "How was your rest yesterday?" You didn't come yesterday, and I think everyone is a lot more relaxed. ”

Li Yu looked at Wu Qian blankly and said, "Why do you say, I didn't come, everyone is much more relaxed?" ”

Xiao Lu immediately responded: "You don't know, don't you put a lot of pressure on everyone?" In the six months that you have been in the company, you have not missed a day of practice. Even with me, I caught a cold, and I didn't dare to rest in the dormitory. ”

Li Yu's progress is visible to everyone, and he never misses practice, which really gives everyone an invisible pressure. It's still the same sentence: 'I'm afraid that people who are better than you will work harder than you!'" ’

Li Yu smiled and said, "Didn't you have a good rest?" Taking advantage of the National Day holiday, how about the XX Western Restaurant in Cheongdam-dong tonight? I had a treat and I heard that the dry-aged steaks there were very good. ”

Xiao Lu immediately smiled and said, "That's a good feeling, Brother Li Yu has a treat, I have to appreciate my face, don't I?" ”

However, while the three of them were chatting, the Korean trainees were also chatting, and suddenly they said, "Sister National.."

Because Ahn Zhaoxi has a bun face in the song "Nobody", which makes Koreans feel very cute, everyone began to call her 'national sister'.

Wu Qian asked Li Yu: "Brother Yu, what do you think of An Zhaoxi?" ”

Li Yu thought for a while and said: "From my aesthetic point of view, it's not good, she's not the type I like, and I don't even think she's cute when everyone says 'cute'?" Maybe it's really a different aesthetic, right? ”

Just when Li Yu was chatting with the two, all the members of Girls' Generation upstairs came to the company today.

They didn't show surprise after listening to Li Yu's "Gee" in Yu Yongzhen's studio.

Because the feeling of this song is very childish, even much more childish than the infinitely repeated "Nobody". They just danced with lollipops not long ago, and this time it's a song with plenty of 'girly feeling'?

After the song was played, Yu Yongzhen looked at them and asked, "How is this song?" ”

Kim Taeyeon, as the captain, was the first to express his opinion: "How to say it, I don't like it very much, I feel a little more naïve than our last title song, GGG's.."

Kim Hyo-yeon, who was arguably the best dancer in the girls' department when she was a trainee, has been looking forward to dancing something as strong as Boa's predecessors after her debut.

The last album was a cute dancing with a lollipop, but this time it's this 'GGG', and her desire to show off her dancing prowess has been disappointed again.

Jin Xiaoyuan said: "I don't like this song very much. ”

Immediately after Jessica said, "Song... It's a bit naïve. ”

It seems that everyone is not so optimistic about this song, and Pani is the only one in the scene who said with a smile: "The melody of this song is very good." ”

Maybe seeing that everyone was not very happy with the song, Pani eased the atmosphere a little in the middle.

As for Yun'er, Xu Xian, such an old man, he has no right to speak at all. They quietly watched their sisters' comments on the song. But they also felt that the song was a bit too simple.

Yu Yongzhen smiled and said, "Yes, this song is too simple, because the creation time of this song is only ten minutes." Li Yu in the trainee, you know, right? He wrote the song after listening to "Nobody". He created this song with a strong girly feeling in imitation of the feeling of 'JYP'. The song, I've listened to it many times, it's really brainwashing. It's like "Nobody", no, more brainwashing than that song, to be exact. ”

Everyone listened to the song in Girls' Generation that Li Yu spent ten minutes to create, and they collectively wondered, is Li Yu fixing them? The melody of the song is good, but... Too naïve, right? Anyway, most of them think this song... Not so good.

However, Yu Yongzhen didn't want to talk too much to them, so he distributed the lyrics to Girls' Generation: "You go back and familiarize yourself with the lyrics, and we'll start recording tomorrow afternoon." Trust me, this song is sure to do well like "Nobody". ”

No way, the current Girls' Generation has no right to pick her own songs at all. Although they were not so happy with the song, they had to comply with the company's arrangement. By the way, Li Yu has now become a thorn in their side. Because this song is really childish!!

Coming out of Yu Yongzhen's studio, everyone in Girls' Generation chatted: "Which of you knows Li Yu?" Ask him, what kind of songs are you writing? ”

Lin Yun'er said at this time: "The last time I came to the company, I saw him once in the corridor of the practice room. ”

Taeyeon said even more depressedly: "Didn't you hear that Li Yu is very talented? What did he write for us? I'm really convinced.."

This song caused great dissatisfaction among the Girls' Generation. However, Li Yu didn't know that he was still practicing downstairs.

.......

Another week passed, and there were some newcomers in the company, one of whom came from Huaxia, and he introduced himself after entering the practice room: "Hello everyone, my name is Zhang Yixing, born in 91, from Huaxia. ”

And Li Yu looked at the still very immature 'Zhang Yixing' and laughed, he said in Chinese: "There are no rules in the practice room, everything depends on whether you work hard." Of course, one thing is to respect your predecessors, but if there are seniors who bully you with your identity, you can tell me. The rest will be fine, let's practice with everyone. Oh, my name is Li Yu, he Lu Han, Wu Sign, we are all Chinese. Well, Wu is a Chinese immigrant in Canada. ”

After Zhang Yixing came to the practice room, Xiao Lu said with a worried look: "There are already four Huaxia people in our class, I don't know if there will be any more to join in the future?" ”

Xiao Lu knows the habit of Korean brokerage companies, at most, one Chinese person is arranged in a group, if it is a large group like SUJU, at most two, right?

And now that there are four Huaxia trainees in their practice room, they will definitely be eliminated among them in the future.

And Li Yu has creative ability, which is definitely a plus, and his appearance and his comprehensive strength are among the top three in the class. So Li Yu is destined to occupy a place as a Chinese trainee, so the rest.

It is conceivable how much competitive pressure will be in the future.
