Chapter 154: Buying Out "Running"?

After Zou Yitian had a certain guess in his heart, he was out of control.

He quickly grabbed the tablet and played the parkour video.

"Because I was wearing a mask and a hat......"

"So in these frontal shots, I really can't see what I look like."

"But this height, this physique, this back......"

"Maybe it's too much like Xiao Ning!"

Zou Yitian, who kept tapping "play" and "pause", tried to take a good look at the figure on the roof of the building frame by frame.

"The similarity is really high!"

"Beyond that!"

Zou Yitian's eyes turned to the lyrics of "Run" that Xiao Ning had just sent.

Then the expression became extremely strange.

"Count the timing of this song he sent me!"

"The possibility that the person in this video is Xiao Ning is as high as ......"

β€œ99.77%!”

Regarding Xiao Ning's way of finding inspiration, Zou Yitian does not know about the music industry, but he also knows about it.

Xiao Ning often launches new works after extreme challenges, and there are even many times when the front foot completes the challenge and the back foot makes the song out.

The similarity between the figure in the video and Xiao Ning is extremely high, and not long after this parkour video was released, Xiao Ning sent a song like "Run......

Moreover!

The lyrics of this song are clearly written about parkour!

"It's a real hammer!"

"That's in the video!"

"It's Xiao Ning!"

After confirming this, the shock in Zou Yitian's heart was almost overflowing.

"Great cycling! The climb is strong! Driving is invincible! ”

"There are already several of them!"

"Who would have thought he would be such a cock in parkour?"

"Simply so!"

"That nine-meter distance is really just jumping over!"

Although Red Bull is now Xiao Ning's exclusive sponsor, the two parties have established a deep cooperative relationship, and Zou Yitian prides himself on knowing Xiao Ning well.

But after confirming that Xiao Ning was the protagonist of the video, Zou Yitian was still stunned for a long time and couldn't fully come back to his senses.

And when he came back to his senses, the shock in his heart was still undiminished.

"This Xiao Ning!"

"It's a monster!"

"This is clearly the ultimate in several extreme sports!"

"Across multiple extreme sports fields, all of them show an invincible attitude......

"He's not human!"

Although he is now the vice president of the Austrian Red Bull Dragon Country, Zou Yitian used to be a real free climber!

He's a professional player before!

Because Zou Yitian himself is engaged in the limit, he has a deeper sense of many things than amateurs or ordinary people.

Even though his previous sports were different from parkour, all extreme sports involved in technology, courage, determination, and so on can be said to be common to a certain extent.

If you choose to do extreme sports, you will inevitably be unable to escape the word "extreme".

If a person chooses to challenge the limit and choose to exceed his limit, he often has to take "injury" or even "life" as a bet!

What's more!

This kind of thing that challenges the limit, it's not enough to just die!

If you are a bold person, then you can indeed do a lot of things that ordinary people dare not do in their lifetime, but if you really want to challenge the limit and surpass the limit!

Faith, courage, tenacity, hard work, technology, mentality and other completely different aspects are all indispensable!

But Xiao Ning really doesn't lack these things at all!

He has everything a top extreme athlete needs!

And he not only has all the necessary qualities to be a great extreme athlete!

Even among the first-class extreme athletes, he is the best performer!

You can ride a bicycle in the Autumn Styx Mountain, as if you were in a no-man's land.

It is easy to climb up the twin towers of more than 300 meters.

You can drive on the Autumn Styx Mountain to do one extreme operation after another, and you can even drive over the Yellow River!

Right now!

He's parkour too6!

Put aside this Jiangcheng Conservatory of Music and jump around!

So many dormitory buildings are jumping one by one! Nine meters away, just fly! In the end, the posture of going downstairs is so exaggerated! Jump directly to the telephone pole from a position more than ten meters high!

β€œHe's amazing!”

Zou Yitian's mouth was wide open, the shock in his heart still existed, but there were also other emotions.

First of all, as a former professional extreme athlete, he is excited and looking forward to the emergence of a Xiao Ning in the field of extreme sports.

As a former professional who used to work hard in the field of extreme sports, Zou Yitian is extremely looking forward to what kind of heart-pounding and refreshing miracles Xiao Ning will create in the future.

Secondly, Zou Yitian still has a vast feeling of happiness in his heart.

After all, it is thanks to his efforts that Red Bull Austria has become the exclusive sponsorship partner of Shawning in the field of extreme sports.

As the vice president of the Austrian Red Bull Dragons, he must be thankful for signing such a powerful person.

In addition to these, Zou Yitian at this time was very happy in his heart.

Because......

"No more extra money to sign someone!"

"The protagonist of the parkour video!"

"It's Xiao Ning!"

To determine this matter.

Zou Yitian directly dialed Xiao Ning back again.

"Mr. Zou, how is my song? Does it fit well with Red Bull's corporate culture? I think it's a good fit. ”

"How about the song, I'll talk about it later." Zou Yitian pursed his lips, and then immediately continued: "Xiao Ning, we have known each other for so long, there is something I want to ask you, you have to tell me the truth!" ”

"You ask." Xiao Ning was a little confused.

Zou Yitian threw out a question that puzzled him.

"Where are you tonight?"

Xiao Ning didn't think about it, and said casually: "Write songs at home, I'll contact you when I write them." ”

"You're a liar!" Zou Yitian's tone suddenly became high: "You're not at home at all!" Tell me honestly, Xiao Ning, did you go to Jiangcheng Conservatory of Music! That is, the school you graduated from before! You don't sleep at night and run to parkour, right? ”

How does he know?

Xiao Ning's face turned strange.

"It stands to reason that ......"

"During the whole process of parkour, my disguise was very well done."

"When I left the school in the back, I didn't drag the mud and water, and I just slipped away in the car."

"Even if there were a lot of students filming me at the time, they wouldn't be able to tell that it was me, right?"

Although he was a little puzzled in his heart, since Zou Yitian had brought this matter up.

If someone else's words, Xiao Ning can also prevaricate.

But Zou Yitian is, after all, the vice president of his sponsor, Red Bull's Dragon Kingdom.

There's no need to hide it.

He spoke: "Mr. Zou, I did go to exercise before I warmed up my body before I went home to make songs." ”

Zou Yitian was stupid: "You call this exercise?" Warm up? Who does this how they do a sports warm-up? Fly for a warm-up of several meters at every turn? Xiao Ning, do you know what the remarks on the Internet are now? ”

"Uh...... Mr. Zou said. ”

"Because you easily jumped more than nine meters, some netizens are ready to launch the Dragon Country Sports Department to find you and let you go directly to the track and field long jump competition of the next Olympic Games!"

Xiao Ning was stunned when he heard it: "Ah, this ......"

After coming back to his senses, he followed up and asked, "What, Mr. Zou, let's not talk about this first, how did you know that I went to exercise at night?" ”

"Your videos are going crazy on the Internet, okay, besides, you still put me on this and say that you are going to exercise?"

"Well, it's parkour, parkour, even though there's a video on the Internet, but how do you see it? I was very well disguised the whole time. ”

Zou Yitian took a deep breath, and then said: "In those videos uploaded by the students, your disguise work is indeed very good, and I really can't recognize you just by looking at it." ”

"But you sent me such a song in the middle of the night, and I just watched those videos, and that figure is so similar to you, it's hard not to think of you!"

After Zou Yitian finished speaking, Xiao Ning understood.

The other party deduces that he is the protagonist of those parkour videos based solely on what he knows about himself.

Themselves are not really exposed.

After thinking of this, Xiao Ning felt relieved.

If someone else guesses that person is him, even if the probability is very high, it is just a guess without a real hammer after all.

As long as he doesn't take the initiative to admit it, then it's up to others to guess.

And the reason why Xiao Ning didn't want to be exposed was because he had to give a speech to the whole school in the afternoon.

He speaks as a graduate of the successful Jiangcheng Conservatory of Music.

If he gives a speech in front of the stage in this capacity, if people know that he has nothing to do in the middle of the night, he runs to school and jumps off buildings, this will have a really bad impact.

"It's good if you don't have a real hammer."

"It doesn't delay me from speaking."

When Xiao Ning was still pondering in his heart, Zou Yitian's voice sounded with some resentment.

"I understand everything."

"But Xiao Ning."

"Although we don't have to force you to pull Red Bull with every extreme challenge."

"But why didn't Red Bull get involved in such an over-the-top parkour challenge tonight?"

"If our people are there to take care of the logistics and shooting, the short film that comes out after this will definitely become a hit."

"Xiao Ning, you have to know that you can not only get the fixed sponsorship fee every year, but in addition, we have also agreed to give you a traffic share in the contract for these short films!"

"You don't want to make any money now?"

Zou Yitian was a little complaining, Xiao Ning could hear it, but he really didn't have time to find Red Bull to participate in the challenge this time.

After all, the time limit for the mission is only twenty-four, and he still has to give speeches during the day, so in fact, the best time to complete the task is at night.

Xiao Ning explained aloud: "Mr. Zou, I also had a whim, so I didn't think about it so much. As for this kind of parkour short film, I will have time and effort to shoot it when I think of something. ”

"In addition, Mr. Zou, I hope you can keep this matter secret for the time being, at least don't tell others that those videos are me for the next two days."

Zou Yitian didn't quite understand: "Why keep it secret?" If you make it public, you will definitely be able to increase a wave of fans, and although our Red Bull did not appear in those videos, your in-depth cooperation with Red Bull is now well known, so even what you bring to Red Bull can be regarded as bringing a certain amount of publicity. ”

Xiao Ning hesitated for a moment, but finally replied truthfully in embarrassment: "I have to go to my alma mater tomorrow to give a speech, and I will give a speech to the whole school as an outstanding graduate of the vocal music department." ”

"So ......"

"You know."

Zou Yitian froze again.

Boy!

Tomorrow as an outstanding graduate of the Conservatory of Music to give a speech, you run to the roof of the building in the middle of the night to "jump"?

Even if you want to jump, you should go to the dance academy in the college town next door, right?

At this time.

Xiao Ning took the initiative to open his mouth and brought the crooked topic back to the original position.

"Let's not talk about this, Mr. Zou, what do you think of my song "Run"?"

How about Run?

That's great!

It can be said to be a perfect match with Red Bull's corporate culture!

Hearing Xiao Ning mention this song, Zou Yitian hurriedly said: "The song is good!" It can be said that it is very good, although I have only listened to the demo now, but this song is indeed very compatible with Red Bull. ”

"Xiao Ning, can you sell this song directly to us?"

Xiao Ning said: "What do you mean...... Buyout? ”

Zou Yitian followed closely and said: "Yes, we will make a price that will definitely satisfy you." ”

The buyout price of a song, in the industry, even if it is a song by a first-line singer, it can't sell much.

The most important thing is that after this one-time copyright is sold out, any subsequent revenue sharing of the song will have nothing to do with the singer, and all will belong to the copyright owner.

Of course, since Zou Yitian can say something like "buy out, the price package is satisfied", the price he gave will definitely be very high.

According to Xiao Ning's speculation, Red Bull, which could give that sky-high price for sponsorship fees before, would definitely give a sky-high price if he was really willing to spend money on this song.

Such a sky-high price will even be higher than that of a first-line singer in the normal industry.

However, Xiao Ning still doesn't want to sell the song directly to Red Bull in the form of a "buyout".

The reason is simple.

In his eyes.

This "Run" and "Fly Higher" are of the same magnitude, and in terms of popularity, this song with natural vitality will be even higher.

"Fly Higher" is now popular both online and offline.

Judging from the data given by Liu Weiwei, the revenue of this song from the online platform alone has far exceeded the analysis of professionals on Xuanji Entertainment's side.

And that's not even counting the various copyright licensing fees for those offline!

Since "Fly Higher" is so powerful, then "Run" will definitely not be bad!

So even if Zou Yitian can definitely give a very generous price, which exceeds the market price of the first-line singer's song buyout.

But Xiao Ning still didn't want to sell the song to Red Bull in the form of a copyright buyout.

Even if the song does fit well with Red Bull's corporate culture, it doesn't have to be bought out.

After a little analysis in his heart, Xiao Ning was about to reject Zou Yitian's idea of "buying out".

However, Zou Yitian suddenly said this.

"It's not a simple buyout, it's a buyout + share!"

"The buyout amount of 10 million guaranteed is paid in a lump sum, plus the follow-up revenue sharing, what do you think?"

Xiao Ning swallowed silently.

The lyrics will not be changed later, Red Bull officially uses the original version, and there will be two versions, don't make a noise about this!

I can't see it in this chapter these days, but I can see it in the author's background.
