Chapter 196: Third
"Is this appropriate?" asked the assistant who had come over after a long time, hesitantly.
"How is it not appropriate? I can give my own shares to whomever I want. Alright, you don't have to worry about that. Tang Huan waved his hand vigorously and said, indicating that he had made up his mind. "By the way, how is the song selection of the three Xiaoqing sisters going on?"
"Now we have preliminarily selected three good songs, and the rest of the songs are not ideal. The assistant said, "Or, Mr. Tang, how many songs will you let Long Shao write?"
"What do you say the creators of the company do? Look at the Yonglong people, write a good song in a few hours, and then look at them, I don't ask them to write well, why is it so hard? And you, they can't write it, so many creators in China, you go to the manuscript. β
......The assistant didn't know what to say, but thought to himself: You think that everyone is like a dragon, writing a song is like eating, and it takes a few hours to write a song, if you really want to do that, the song will be worthless.
"Don't do this and that, Xiaoqing, have they finished recording "Not Full of Lovers"?"
"I've already finished recording this, and I'm now preparing to shoot the music video. The assistant replied truthfully.
"Well, since it's so difficult to choose songs, let's put a little bit off on this album. Tang Huan said suddenly.
"Ah, Mr. Tang, Xiaoqing and the three of them have been concentrating on the album for a while, and now it's not good to stop suddenly. And we have also invested a lot in this matter, and the advertisements for the manuscript have also been sent. The assistant didn't quite understand Tang Huan's thinking, why did he want to stop the album?
"I didn't say stop, I just slowed down, the matter of the manuscript can continue, and if there is a good song, it doesn't necessarily have to be put on the album. Tang Huan looked at the assistant's questioning expression, and then explained: "I mean I want to take out this song "Not Full of Lovers" as a single first, just like "Song of the Pig", take Yonglong's ride, maybe you can get better results." β
The assistant somewhat understood Tang Huan's thinking, but still asked, "What should I do with the title song of the album in the future?"
"You are stupid, when the time comes, I will give Meng Wen part of the company's shares, and it is not pediatrics to ask him to write a song. When the time comes, I will directly release an album written by Meng Wen alone, and I will scare them to death. β
"Oh. The assistant scratched his head in embarrassment. "Then how do we write our recommendation words, are they also written in the format of Long Shao?"
Tang Huan pondered for a while and said: "This is a problem, the front can remain the same, the key is the back, the characteristics of our song are not very obvious, it is not easy to write." Do you have any good words?"
The assistant thought for a while, and said hesitantly: "Why don't we write the most ambiguous song of the year?"
"Ambiguous?" Tang Huan asked.
The assistant explained: "Well, isn't this song written about the hazy feelings of girls and boys, beyond friendship but not the relationship between lovers, isn't this ambiguous?"
"What you said is not unreasonable, okay, just write this, it's a gimmick anyway, let them guess for themselves. Tang Huan said: "In this way, you can call Xiaoqing and the three of you to my office now, and don't forget to bring the recorded songs." β
"Yes," the assistant agreed, and walked out.
Tang Huan then called Jiang Hongli, this Jiang Hongli is the deputy editor-in-chief of the Crooked Dog Music Editorial Department, the two have a good personal relationship, and any new songs in Tang Huan's company are usually reviewed by him.
As soon as Jiang Hongli saw that it was Tang Huan's call, he knew that he would go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and Tang Huan must have released a new song, begging himself to give a recommendation. Sure enough, the phone was connected, Tang Huan didn't even say a word of greeting, and directly said that he was going to release a new song and asked him to help set aside a recommendation spot for him.
Jiang Hongli naturally happily agreed, firstly, the relationship between the two is not bad, and secondly, Jiang Hongli also knows Tang Huan's character, if the song is not good, it will not be willing to beg for himself, it is nothing more than to give himself a position as high as possible.
However, Jiang Hongli still gave Tang Huan a preventive shot in advance, in case Tang Huan's expectations were too high, and finally rejoiced: "Mr. Tang, it's no problem for your new song to be on the recommendation list, but unless it's a particularly good song, you can only stay at the back." β
Jiang Hongli also has no way, there are ten recommended seats, everyone comes to fight, there are no less than ten people who greet each day, most of the people say hello is good, and it is convenient for the company to make arrangements according to the actual situation, and the most afraid is the kind of temporary insertion like Tang Huan. However, the company also reserves one or two fluctuating places for each ranking in response to this situation.
Just like this time, the first to recommend "Crying" that has been promised to Wheat Field Culture, "Crying" is the title song of the new album of the cutting-edge singer Pei Zheng, who has been praised by Wheat Field Culture in the past two years, and it is also a very good song. After all, this is a powerful thing for both parties, Maitian Culture needs to make its own artists popular, and Crooked Dog also needs to have different main songs at each stage to drive the market.
But this is an arrangement in the absence of other external forces, because no one can be sure, maybe when there will be a particularly classic song that overshadows "Crying", and in order to ensure its own fairness and credibility, it is impossible for Crooked Dog to force other songs to give up other songs for the promotion of "Crying".
Because everyone understands that although the early publicity of the song is very important, the quality itself is even more important, and the later this importance is, the more prominent it is. Therefore, if the company has been focusing on promoting "Crying" and ignoring the really good songs, the last count of jΓΉ shows that the songs it recommends are not as high as the downloads of the songs that are not recommended. After a long time, everyone's attention to the recommendation list has declined. The company wouldn't do such a self-damaging thing.
Now this is the situation, last night Yonglong's song "Little Cabbage" suddenly popped up and directly occupied the first place on the recommendation list. In the face of the absolute strength of Meng Wen's "Little Cabbage", Maitian Culture can only sigh secretly, and there is no other way than to think that he is unlucky.
Of course, this is just the beginning, this morning, Universal Music's "Song of the Pig", in the name of Meng Wen, once again squeezed out "Crying" by one place, originally wanted to become the champion, but now it can't even be the runner-up, and suddenly became the third runner-up.
This time, Maitian Culture did not succumb so easily, and it has been wrenching with the company for a long time, but who made Meng Wen so popular now, the number of downloads of the song "Little Hundred Vegetables" in one night has topped the number of downloads of "Crying" in two days. With the name of Yonglong, it is popular, and the public relations power of Universal Music is not vegetarian, and in the end, "Crying" still resigned itself to third place.
