015 "You can rest assured that the copyright issue will be given to you"
In the afternoon, Yu Dongqing began to write the song "The Final Countdown", anyway, everything is ready-made, just need to write it.
We're leaving together,
We will leave together
But still it's farewell
But there is still a goodbye
And maybe we'll come back,
Maybe we'll be back
To earth, who can tell ?
Back on Earth, who could have predicted
I guess there is no one to blame
I don't think anyone is to blame
We're leaving ground
We will leave the ground
Will things ever be the same again?
Whether the scenery will remain the same in the future
.....
....
After a busy afternoon, I came home from work in the evening, and after going out for a walk, I started to open my laptop and continue to work, and finally got it done at 10 o'clock in the evening.
Generate an audio file and listen to it carefully, and it feels pretty good. Of course, the software-generated arrangements are far inferior to real band accompaniment.
No matter how much it is, Yu Dongqing sent a WeChat message to Luo Yun, and then sent this song over to ask her to give her opinions.
A few minutes later, Luo Yun's phone called: "Brother Yu, you are really talented!" The song is awesomely written! It's just a blast! It's just that how are the lyrics in English? ”
"You didn't say you had to speak Chinese." Yu Dongqing smiled at the mobile phone lying on the sofa.
"The English song is good, but let Zhang Fan sing it, I don't know if he can take it down?" On the other side of the phone, Luo Yun muttered to herself.
"Who do you say is going to sing this song?" Yu Dongqing was stunned.
"Zhang Fan, it was he who took a fancy to you writing that soundtrack, and found Wu Lan and asked him to sing it completely."
It's him? Zhang Fan?
Of course, Yu Dongqing knows Zhang Fan, a popular singer in the company, born in the draft, and became popular with his delicate appearance, quickly becoming a traffic star, active in major variety shows, and also released several records.
But Yu Dongqing is not optimistic.
"Just his voice? I don't have enough energy to say it, it seems like I haven't eaten for three days, and I still want to sing rock songs?! I don't know what Wu Lan thinks? Accede to his request? Yu Dongqing sneered.
"Zhang Fan's singing skills are really average, but there are many fans, such as mother fans and sister fans......... You don't know how many people sold their last digital album? Million! Makes a lot of money for the company, and now it is our company's popular fried chicken, and it is estimated that Wu Lan can't stand it. Luo Yun explained.
"Okay, don't say it, you just do it when I didn't write."
"What do you mean?"
"It's nothing, I don't want him to sing it, so as not to spoil the song." Yu Dongqing replied lightly.
"Huh? ......" On the other side of the phone, Luo Yun was surprised. If this complete song is handed over to Wu Lan, she believes that she can get 100,000 for Yu Dongqing.
That's not a small amount, so don't do it?
Suddenly, she thought of something and hurriedly said: "Brother Yu, do you want to let others sing this song, I'm worried about copyright disputes." ”
Luo Yun's worries are not unreasonable.
In the eyes of outsiders, this song was written on the basis of the original soundtrack, and the copyright of the soundtrack is in the hands of Jinye Company, which can easily cause copyright disputes.
Yu Dongqing replied lightly after hearing this: "I don't plan to let anyone sing it, entertain myself, and if it is not used for commercial purposes, the company can't care about it, right?" “
"Brother Yu, you are so free..... Okay, just do as you say. ”
"Then Wu Lan's side, are you good at doing business?" Yu Dongqing thought of another question and asked with concern.
"It's okay, I only told Wu Lan that I would try, and it didn't necessarily mean that I could finish it, but I told her in two days that I couldn't write it, and I didn't specialize in composing." Luo Yun said in a very relaxed tone.
Yu Dongqing calmed down.
"Okay, good night."
"Good night, good dreams."
The two chatted a few more words and hung up the phone.
Yu Dongqing looked at the song on the laptop desktop, smiled and turned off the computer.
Yu Dongqing thought that this matter would be over, but she didn't expect that on Thursday, not long after Yu Dongqing went to work, she received a call from Wu Lan asking him to go to her office.
When Yu Dongqing knocked on the door and entered the office, Wu Lan personally poured him a cup of tea and sat elegantly on the sofa opposite him.
"Holly, did you write a song recently? It's The Final Countdown written by Luo Yun" Wu Lan changed her usual face full of frost and asked with a smile.
Well?
How did she know?
Luo Yun told her?
This woman...... Yu Dongqing felt dissatisfied in his heart.
Wu Lan seemed to see his thoughts, and said, "You can't blame Luo Yun for this matter, she didn't take the initiative to say it." ”
It turned out that when Luo Yun was reporting to Wu Lan, she accidentally revealed her mouth, and was caught by Wu Lan and questioned, so Luo Yun had no choice but to tell what had happened.
"Wu Lan, since I know it, I don't want to say more, as for the reason why I don't want to take it out, you must know it." Yu Dongqing said lightly.
"Copyright issues, right?" Wu Lan replied.
"That's really one thing, and the other is that Zhang Fan is not suitable for singing."
"Don't worry about copyright, I clearly tell you, you can write such an excellent song again, it is very necessary for the company to modify your contract to give you the copyright, even if Mr. Tan does not agree, I can apply to the company's board of directors, they will not be so short-sighted! Otherwise I would also offer my resignation! Wu Lan replied.
Scold?
So resolute?
Speaking of this, Wu Lan softened her tone: "Holly, I also know that Zhang Fan is indeed not suitable for singing such songs, but you also consider my difficulties." ”
"Now the major entertainment companies, whether it is film and television, singing and dancing, are fighting for traffic! According to online search data, Zhang Fan's daily search volume reached 50,000 per day, ranking firmly among the top three. ”
"As a senior executive of the company, it is understandable for you to think like this, but as a friend, I remind you that real music is not like this, and a great music company cannot be supported by just a few traffic stars."
"Besides, as far as I'm concerned, I won't give this work to these so-called traffic stars, it's a bad song." Yu Dongqing's attitude was very resolute.
There was a moment of silence in the room.
After a while, Wu Lan raised her head and looked at him and said softly: "Holly, during this time, I think you have changed a lot. ”
"Really? Becoming unrecognizable to me? Am I not Yu Dongqing? Yu Dongqing joked.
"No, no..... It's very similar to you more than ten years ago when you were still in college......" Wu Lan replied, and her face turned pale.
"Okay, don't talk about this, since you don't want Zhang Fan to sing, I respect your opinion. But isn't it a pity that such a good song is on the shelf? Tell me, which of our company's singers is suitable for singing this song? ”
"Wu Lan, this is something that a company executive like you considers, not an ordinary editor like me."
"Do me a favor..... Wu Lan glanced at him, sighed and said: "To be honest, there are twenty or thirty singers of all sizes in our company, and none of them are really good at singing rock style." ”
Yu Dongqing nodded, and suddenly a name came to his mind.
"Wu Lan, a few days ago I saw a singer named Tang Guang submit a work, his voice is very suitable for singing such songs, and he also wants to join our company, you can let him try."
"Tang Guang? How come I haven't heard of this person? Wu Lan was a little puzzled.
"It is estimated that his works and resume will be eliminated before they reach you." Yu Dongqing said with a smile.
Wu Lan walked to the boss's desk and turned on the computer, and sure enough, through the internal network, she saw that a singer named Tang Guang had submitted a manuscript, but his works had been eliminated by the professional team.
The reason given is: "The voice and the style of music do not conform to the mainstream music market." ”
"Wu Lan, I think you should listen to the song "The Age of Justice" written by him, it's very interesting." Yu Dongqing put forward his own suggestions.
Wu Lan put on the headphones in disbelief, opened the audio file and listened seriously, frowning slightly after a while.
"How was this song recorded? Why is the mix so big?
"This shows that his recording conditions are poor, but from another point of view, his voice has not been repaired in the later stage, and it is very explosive, so he is suitable for singing this song." Yu Dongqing patiently explained.
"Then do what you want, give him a chance." Wu Lan finally decided.
"Whatever you want....."
Yu Dongqing doesn't care.
What should be said has been said, as for how Wu Lan decides, it has nothing to do with him.
