Chapter 14: The Flowers
"Now that the legal awareness in China is gradually increasing, those pirates will not be arrogant for long, you don't have to focus on this, you can do your own music is the right thing. Ma Xuqi admonished.
"Yes, this kind of thing, the government has to manage sooner or later, such a big loophole and profit, when the government frees up its hands, sooner or later. Bao Yunyun said seriously that she firmly believes that sooner or later the government will rectify all aspects of this, just like a lovely and upright patriotic young woman.
Li Qing didn't refute, just nodded weakly.
According to the experience he gained in his previous life, it is true that the pirates will not be arrogant for long, because the Internet era is coming soon, and the more harmful online pirates BAT are about to rise......
"However, there was a piece of news recently that made everyone in the circle quite excited. ”
Ma Xuqi said with a smile: "Now people's lives are getting better and better, and the gold-absorbing channels of the emerging industry of mobile phones have gradually been developed." ”
Li Qing thought for a while and said, "CRBT business?"
Ma Xuqi glanced at Li Qing in surprise, nodded and smiled: "That's right, it's CRBT, he has the same effect as radio on-demand songs, but it is more convenient in ordering songs, and with more and more users holding mobile phones, the profits in this are getting bigger and bigger, and more importantly, they are not like radio stations, they are a plate of loose sand, which is difficult to clean up." The CRBT service is the only on-demand function that mobile operators have alone, and mobile, as a state-owned enterprise, will not openly hide its tricks in this regard, so once a copyrighted song is on-demand by users, it is natural that part of the revenue generated will be divided into the name of the copyright holder......"
Li Qing was a little excited, this is indeed a good channel to attract money, in the previous life, when the mobile phone had not yet entered the wireless era, the favorite song was set as a mobile phone call ringtone, which was simply a must-have for the whole people, both trendy and fashionable.
Among them, there are many singers who have earned hundreds of millions of dollars on demand from the CRBT business alone.
"Old Ma, let's not talk about these for now, don't forget to get down to business. ”
At this time, Jiang Zhongnan reminded him beside him.
Ma Xuzhen smiled: "I know, it's still early, don't worry." ”
"Don't worry, you think I'm worried about you, I'm worried about our Qingzi, Qingzi is now in the top ten of the national radio song on demand list, do you know the top ten? Do you think anyone in the top ten can be on the list?" Jiang Zhongnan hehehe: "Moreover, Qingzi will participate in the recording of the program of "Music Star" tomorrow, your business, just gossip less, long story short, however, there are some words, but you can't help but say ......"
Jiang Zhongnan sold Guan Zi and smiled mysteriously at Li Qing.
Li Qing was confused.
Seeing this, Ma Xuqi smiled bitterly, shook his head, and then said to Li Qing: "Qingzi, I came this time specifically for you and Yunyun." ”
Li Qing nodded and made a gesture of respect.
Ma continued: "As you may know, I'm an agent and producer, and I've been unemployed since the band......
Li Qing cheered up and knew that the drama was coming.
To be honest, her voice is very spiritual, singing ballads, it is easy to move people's hearts, the only drawback is that her style is too fixed, only suitable for folk songs! Ma Xuqi commented.
Li Qing looked at Bao Yunyun, who was silent, and hurriedly said, "I like Sister Yunyun's voice very much......"
Bao Yunyun sneered and glared at Li Qing charmingly: "Stinky boy, is my sister so scary, don't pat yourself, I know my own affairs." ”
Li Qing looked embarrassed.
Jiang Zhongnan laughed on the side.
Ma Xuqi shook his head: "Although we have already negotiated, I have also decided to bring Yunyun out in the near future, and I have prepared for her packaging and promotion, and everything has been expected, as long as I prepare it, I can start recording the record, but in my heart, in fact, I still feel that she lacks a fire, a fire that really makes her burn." ”
"What do you mean?" Li Qing said thoughtfully.
Ma Xuqi smiled, glanced at Jiang Zhongnan, and then said: "Qingzi, your song "Sudden Self", when I came, I had already heard Yun Yun sing it once, I think this song, Yun Yun sang it well, and sang a feeling of fire......
At this time, Jiang Zhongnan suddenly stood up and looked angry: "Old Ma, what do you mean? You want to go to this song, what is Qingzi singing?"
As he spoke, his face changed slightly: "You're not going to take Qingzi?"
Bao Yunyun was also stunned.
Li Qing looked at all this and was a little silent.
Ma Xuqi picked up the wine glass, took a sip quietly, and waited for Jiang Zhongnan's words to finish asking in one breath before saying: "Old Jiang, Qingzi is indeed a good seedling, but I have also carefully considered and understood, and it is not appropriate to dig Qingzi now." ”
"What's not appropriate? What's inappropriate? What did you say before, and you regret it when it comes to the end? And you still beat it up? Yes, if you don't want to help, just say it, don't fix those empty heads. Jiang Zhongnan said angrily.
Bao Yunyun also begged: "Brother Ma, wouldn't it be nice to dig up Qingzi too, his songs have all been on the top ten of the national radio song on-demand charts, and his potential is greater than mine......"
"It's because he's in the top 10 that I say it's not appropriate. ”
Ma Xuqi was a little angry: "Do you know how much it costs to dig up Qingzi now? Dig him, don't say that you release records, I have to drink the northwest wind!"
"What do you mean?" Jiang Zhongnan was stunned, but he knew that Ma Xuzhen was worth, and the liquidated damages of one or two million were not a problem at all.
"I just got the news that Qingzi's contract in Expedition Media is an A-level contract, which is only one grade worse than the S-level contract, this is a contract belonging to a first-line singer, when Expedition Media was trained according to the treatment of first-line singers, and the liquidated damages of the A-level contract are not more than 10 million, so they can't be taken down at all. ”
"Ten million ......" Jiang Zhongnan was startled.
Bao Yunyun was also stunned, 10 million ...... This number is a bit far away, and her current savings are only one or two thousand......
Hearing this price, Li Qing was also a little stunned, he did not doubt the authenticity of Ma Xuqi's source, because according to his knowledge, the contract signed by his predecessor was indeed the so-called A-level artist contract, but he never thought that the liquidated damages for this artist would be so high!
This is 97 years!
10 million is comparable to hundreds of millions in the future!
Li Qing only felt that his throat was a little angry, and he was quiet for a while before he spoke: "Brother Xiaoma, this is nothing, if it were me, I wouldn't sign me." ”
"Just understand. Ma Xuzhen sighed: "Actually, if you didn't participate in "Music Star" and didn't sing the song "Angel Wings", Mr. Gu of Expedition Media might sell me a face, and one or two million can let ......you go."
He wanted to speak and stopped, if Li Qing hadn't participated in "Music Star" and hadn't sung "Angel's Wings", would he still sit here today and talk to him calmly?
The answer, of course, is no.
So he changed his tone and comforted him instead: "Actually, you don't have to be discouraged, you have shown your talent and value now, as long as Expedition Media is not stupid, it will definitely support you again, even if you are not satisfactory with them, it doesn't matter, you still have two years left on your contract, you are still young, and there are opportunities." ”
Li Qing nodded and didn't say anything more.
Jiang Zhongnan and Bao Yunyun were silent.
Seeing that they didn't speak, Ma Xuzhen said with some embarrassment: "Qingzi, look at your song......"
"Brother Xiaoma, although "Sudden Self" is a good song, I don't think it's suitable for Sister Yunyun. Li Qing sorted out his thoughts, raised his head, and said seriously.
Ma Xuqi's face changed.
Jiang Zhongnan looked at Li Qing and sighed, he had already decided that he would not interfere with the choice made by the little brother, whether it was right or wrong.
Bao Yunyun looked at Li Qing, then at Ma Xuqi, who had an ugly face, and suddenly smiled: "Hey, I myself think Qingzi's song is not suitable for me......"
"No, Sister Yunyun. ”
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little delicate, Li Qing came to his senses, knowing that his tone was a little not straightforward enough, and hurriedly said: "Although "Sudden Self" is not suitable for you, but I have other songs, aren't you good at folk songs?"
"You mean...... Do you still know how to sing folk songs?" Ma Xuqi couldn't believe it.
"Folk and rock, they just end up in the same place!" Li Qing smiled and said to Bao Yunyun: "Sister Yunyun, you go and get me a guitar." ”
When Bao Yunyun heard this, she hurriedly got up and went to get the guitar.
After a while, a wooden guitar appeared in Li Qing's hand.
Under the attention of Ma Xuqi and them, Li Qing cleared his throat, sat on the sofa in the box, and adjusted the guitar quietly.
A moment later, a smooth playing like flowing water sounded, and at the same time, Li Qing's slightly hoarse and clear voice rang out.
The laughter
Reminds me of my flowers
in my life
Every corner is quietly open for me
I thought
I will always be by her side
Today we are gone
In the vast sea of people
They're all old
Where are they?
Luckily
I have accompanied them to open ......"
Listening to Li Qing's tactful voice, Ma Xuqi and Jiang Zhongnan seemed to feel as if an electric current flashed all over their bodies, and the two of them stood up in unison, and their eyes revealed a trace of shock.
And Bao Yunyun's eyes were shining, looking at Li Qing who was playing and singing, listening to the whispering and singing, unconsciously, a trace of ripples quietly appeared in her heart.
