Chapter 15 Retreat to Advance

I'm most afraid of the sudden silence in the air.

For a few seconds after Jiang Ye finished speaking, you could hear needles dropping in the room.

Lin Sen didn't answer immediately, and the other four members were also stunned and confused.

A master of arts is so bold! Jiang Ye did it authentically. Yao Xiao was the first to appreciate it and supported his brother: "I am the first to agree with this."

"I don't have a problem either." Gu Chuan answered for the second time, "We don't have much money on our hands anyway, so we might as well donate it to avoid the negative impact."

The speaker was unintentional, but Wang Zihao felt his cheeks get hot. If this crisis could be solved completely with some money, it would be easy for him.

"The whole thing was caused by me accidentally, and it hurt everyone. I have no problem donating money, and I will definitely cooperate." Wang Zihao followed suit.

Lin Sen turned his attention to Gao Xin.

Gao Xin lowered his eyes and cursed. If he couldn't beat him, he would just join. Is it possible that he still had any choice? After adjusting his expression, he raised his head and said, "This is to protect the collective honor, and I must be a part of it."

In fact, the copyright fee of 10 million seems a lot, but the song was released by Tianyou, so the copyright naturally belongs to the company.

The five of them received a 1% share as a newcomer, and after deducting taxes, each of them got less than 20,000 yuan; Jiang Ye, because he was the songwriter, could get more.

The bloody world of business is inherently a game of capital, and you can only obey the rules in it.

Therefore, for [dream5], the number of people donating is not a problem at all. What is difficult is getting the company to agree.

Seeing Lin Sen's hesitation, Jiang Ye understood his concerns. After all, the reasons may not be sufficient to convince the company to give up millions of profits just to solve the nightclub crisis.

So he thought for a while and gave a shot in the arm: "Mr. Lin, the next single "Monkey King" will reach platinum, and the new album will be warmed up.

This method can not only eliminate negative effects, but also further build market favorability. Isn’t it a multi-purpose strategy?

We all know the power of public opinion. If the music festival gets a good response, the time is right, the place is right, and the people are right, we can definitely double the profit in a short time."

Young Master Song pushed the boat along with the current, so Jiang Ye's move was called retreating in order to advance.

He just gave up his income of less than 200,000 yuan temporarily, but the company made real money and took out millions of net profits. Spending the company's money to build momentum for himself, this business is very cost-effective.

Just like playing games, you must be steady to win, and you must take a long-term view. Regardless of low-end games or high-end games, the party with a better vision will inevitably win.

Lin Sen smiled intriguingly, and suddenly remembered that Peng Yuan had lamented many times that Jiang Ye's creative talent was a bit evil.

Now he dares to open a mouth worth tens of millions of dollars with just one click of his upper and lower teeth. Based on his judgment after being immersed in the industry for many years, this kid is more than just talented.

"Okay, I will mention it to the company and try my best to implement it." Lin Sen decided to take a gamble, "You just need to spend time preparing the new album and wait for Director Peng to come back and have a meeting together."

The next day, Lin Sen went to Ding Shaokun with great ambition to issue a military order.

Deputy General Manager Tian Hao immediately objected: "No. This is 10 million. Why don't you just donate it?"

"Mr. Tian, ​​I am also thinking about the company. The music festival Jiangye and the others have regained some popularity, but the negative impact of the nightclub incident has not been eradicated.

Now [dream5] is on the rise. Donating 10 million yuan will not only completely change the public opinion, but also make their popularity quickly reach the top. It is the best marketing strategy for the next album.

Ten million should be regarded as an investment in promoting the new album. Donate today and earn back several times in the future. Besides, aren’t charitable donations tax-deductible?” Lin Sen spoke passionately and argued with reason.

Tian Hao was furious. Lin Sen never took him seriously. He was sarcastically saying that he didn't understand anything.

"What a waste, I've never spent so much money on Mr. Cheng. Besides, this [Dream Road] has already cost a huge amount, and I haven't even gotten it back yet." Tian Hao shouted without restraint.

Lin Sen's breath was calm, and he smiled and said: "Haha, this matter still needs to be decided by Mr. Ding, it doesn't matter what we say.

Mr. Ding, don’t ignore Mr. Jing, the album sales of [Summer Boy] are currently leading by a big margin.”

Tian Hao was about to make another impassioned speech when he opened his mouth and noticed Ding Shaokun's intimidating eyes. He glanced at him with a cold light and fell into silence.

Ding Shaokun was still listening with a smile and didn't care about Lin Sen's talk.

Donating 10 million, how could this kid Jiang Ye imagine that the company is owned by his family? Even if it were Cheng Baixun in front of him, he would not dare to make such a request.

But when he heard what happened later, his smile gradually disappeared and he became grimacing because some of Lin Sen's words made his heart hurt.

Ding Shaokun tapped his fingers on the table rhythmically, his mind running rapidly back and forth to make calculations. After a moment, he finally said: "You're taking advantage of this kid Jiang Ye."

The implication is that I agree.

Regardless of the entertainment industry or any other art industry, on the surface to create stars and dreams, it is essentially business. He, Ding Shaokun, is nothing more than a businessman, and businessmen are big on profits.

To this day, Ding Shaokun has a clear idea of ​​who is losing money and who is helping him make money, taking into account the time cost and return on investment.

"Lin Sen, I will do as you say." Ding Shaokun said sternly, "Xuanfa, you are directly responsible for the arrangements. Let me see that it is worth the money."

If he can make a comeback from a disadvantageous situation and change his position to Jiang Ye, if [dream5] can gain a firm foothold and the album sells out, making money for the company will be secondary. The key point is to become the key magic weapon for him to finally defeat Jing Xiangyun.

Such a move was helpless. Who said that the prince Cheng Baixun was an adou who couldn't be helped?

On June 5, the official blog of Tianyou Entertainment announced that all proceeds from the 10 million theme song copyright of "The Monkey King" have been donated to the Hope Project in the name of the [dream5] band group, and a donation certificate was attached.

【dream5】The five people also went to their own blogs to explain the situation.

Jiang Ye fulfilled his promise: "In addition, part of my personal income as a songwriter will also be donated to schools in impoverished mountainous areas.

Once again, we would like to sincerely thank all our fans and friends who have believed in and supported us during this period! The new album will be released soon, and we will definitely not disappoint you."

As expected, this caused a huge wave of public opinion, [dream5]'s reputation reversed, and it achieved full results in all aspects.

[Morning Star Interactive Entertainment] The company’s official blog, Song Mingxuan himself, and even China Channel’s official blog all liked and forwarded Tianyou Entertainment’s statement.

The earliest "small town essayists" who reported in the comment section of "Stubborn" all lamented that they had not made a mistake at the time, Jiang Ye was worth it!

Users of "Dream Westward Journey" have also gained a lot of fans. The downloads of "Monkey King" skyrocketed and it ranked fifth on the new song list.

On Jiang Ye's personal blog, the number of likes and retweets has exceeded one million, and the number of comments is still increasing.

"I will always support you! During the most difficult days before the college entrance examination, I posted the lyrics of "Stubborn" on my desk, and I was full of motivation when I saw it.

I hope that all the small town essayists who have put in the hard work will find their next stop and a better version of themselves this summer!"

"My scalp is numb. This lead singer is so capable, he is a great person!"

"Are you so top-notch? Quickly download the song, looping it, super burning!"

"[dream5] has a great chance of winning. I didn't know there was such a band, but after reading through the hot search from the beginning, I really like it. The songs are also passionate. I support it!"

"This old fan is in tears. I have never doubted it since "Floating to the North"! It starts with appearance, talent, and loyalty to character. Jiang Yechong!"

"Damn it! Slap those trolls in the face, it's such a relief! I'll donate 10 million as soon as I ask. Isn't this attitude and style the same as rock music itself?"

"The music festival scene is really eye-catching. It has strength and character. I love it. I can't wait for the new album to be released!"

[Dream5]'s popularity has picked up again, and the news that the first mini-album after debut will be officially released on June 20 has spread immediately.

On June 8th, Peng Yuan returned from a business trip and had a meeting for the new album.

Jiang Ye expressed his thoughts: "I think this album is suitable to continue the concept of [youth inspiration], highlight and strengthen the existing impression, and deepen the public's memory of us."

Regardless of whether the entertainment industry is good or bad, what they are afraid of is lack of recognition. If a popular singer is not popular, it will be a real misfortune.

Once the new and lively events have passed, how to accumulate and settle after the hustle and bustle? The simplest and most effective way is to consolidate the memory through repeated implantation of impressions.

If you get one point right, the audience will never forget you; in other words, as long as you mention this point, the audience will naturally think of you.

Well, since everyone calls him an "inspirational singer", let's just stick to this label.

"It makes sense." Peng Yuan immediately agreed, "Especially in the early stages of development, I particularly emphasize the unity of style. It is very important to grasp one point first to let others remember you."

Since it contains two already released singles, [dream5]’s mini-album is priced at a discounted price of 10 yuan.

The two new songs are one fast and one slow. Jiang Ye has already completed the demo, lyrics, music and arrangement by one person.

When Peng Yuan heard the second slow song, his eyes shone, and he controlled the urge to stand up. He took off his headphones and cleared his throat: "You should hurry up and rehearse. We will go into the studio to record in three or four days."

What a creative genius! He delivered the title song in such a short time.

Peng Yuan couldn't help but sigh, this was not a probability event, Jiang Ye, this young man, really had something in his stomach.

"The cover and promotional photos are based on the set concepts, band, inspirational, and youthful." Lin Sen sent the specific shooting schedule to the five people: "Choose a sunny day for the location, and the clothing brand has been connected."

Dong dong dong——

At this time, the newly arrived assistant intern knocked on the door and brought in the ordered coffee.

Lin Sen pinched his eyebrows and issued a military order. He must have been under a lot of pressure.

Peng Yuan comforted him: "Pay attention to rest, don't be too tense."

Lin Sen twitched the corner of his mouth, and Peng Yuan stood up again and patted his shoulder: "You will know after recording the song." Then he smiled knowingly.

This kind of certainty does not often appear in the rigorous Director Peng.

Lin Sen suddenly felt that it was even more refreshing than the double shot of espresso in his hand.
