Rebirth, Starting from 2005
Chapter 190: Music Director's Problem
On August 5th, the manuscript fee for "Fights Break the Sky" came out, and there was no payment for the manuscript fee for traditional Chinese publishing, so the income was much lower than last month.
But Chen Li and Yan Xin didn't care much.
Last month, there was a traditional manuscript fee settlement for the first half of the year, and it is normal to have more.
They had already expected the manuscript fee for this month, and it wouldn't be much higher.
On this day, the two of them went to Yangcheng again. Chen Li was going to collect the house in Baijingyuan, and bought some furniture to furnish the empty house.
Yan Xin just went to the company to have a look, meet with several contracted singers of the company, and talk about the future development plan.
By the way, I will take out the songs "created" during this period of time and share them with everyone.
During this period of time, he copied dozens of songs.
Some songs only remember the melody, but forget a lot of the lyrics.
But it doesn't matter.
No one stipulates how the lyrics must be written.
Now he's the original creator, and he says what the lyrics are, that's what they are.
As long as you can memorize most of the lyrics, and the remaining ones that you can't remember completely, just make up according to the original meaning.
Sometimes I remember the forgotten lyrics while editing.
Sometimes you can’t remember it, so you can make it up yourself.
He can complete the lyrics that are accurate.
If you are not sure, sometimes you will ask Chen Li for advice and let him polish the specific words and sentences. You don't need to be excellent, as long as you can handle it perfunctorily, that's fine.
The most important thing about a song is the tune rather than the words. It is enough to remember the melody of the song.
In addition, the company also purchased some songs—the works posted by netizens on the music forum of Xingguang.com.
Some are because the quality is really passable, not very good-sounding, but it is considered qualified, not to the point of being ugly.
Some are popular works on the forum, which have a lot of discussion. Although they don't think such works are good, but there are so many people who support them, so they can try them out.
It doesn't really matter if it sounds bad, sometimes it's just a gimmick.
As long as there are many people who support it, there is a reason for its success.
For example, "My skateboard shoes, ugly is really ugly, but the fire is also really popular."
This kind of work is also very much needed by the company.
Choosing to buy those works, in fact, the company also knows that basically they will not make money.
But I did it anyway.
One of the most important reasons is to use this method to encourage the creative enthusiasm of netizens, and also to attract more music-related professionals to this website and publish their own music works on this forum.
Just relying on one person, even if he is very good at copying songs, cannot support the amount of a company.
What's more, the songs that Yan Xin can remember by himself are very limited, and half of them belong to old songs from before, so there is no way to copy them.
Singing some not-so-nice songs doesn't have that much influence on the singer, as long as a high-quality song can be released every once in a while.
No singer can do every song well.
This will also fill up the company's music library.
In the end how to choose songs, there is a triple mechanism.
First of all, Starlight Entertainment's music director and legal director Xie Jun chose from the perspective of a professional musician.
Because the works published on the forums in the early days were all amateur players who were at the same level as Yan Xin, and they basically didn’t understand music theory when they posted a song lyrics or a singing demo.
And what Xie Jun has to choose is whether there is any one that can be remedied by recomposing the music.
Yan Xin didn't know much about music theory, but what he copied were all the popular songs he listened to in his previous life. If there was anything wrong, it was just that he sang out of tune.
Netizens uploaded all their own original things, and some just hummed indiscriminately, the kind that couldn't be saved even if they saved them.
What Xie Jun wants to choose is those that can be remedied.
Then Yan Xin, Xiao Yin and other amateur listeners will choose which ones they think are acceptable.
Finally, the company's contracted singers will choose which ones they can sing.
After three layers of selection, then decide to buy.
There is no fixed price, depending on the quality of the song, they can be bought out directly, and the remuneration ranges from 500 to 3,000.
Of course, the announcement on the website is not like this. In the announcement on the website, the remuneration for buying out songs can be as high as 100,000 RMB.
If you can't reach that price, it's not that the company can't afford the price, but that you haven't reached that level.
Those songs, after they were recorded, were not released on other platforms, but directly posted on the original song download page of Xingguang.com. They can be listened to online for free. If you want to download them, you have to spend 20,000 gold coins to download them.
All the songs on QQ music were copied by Yan Xin himself.
This is a song that will bring popularity to the singers of our company. Of course, it must be placed on a platform with a lot of traffic to achieve better results.
Of course, these songs will also be put on their own website.
At this time, it is free to publish songs online. Singers can upload to any platform they want, and they can upload to multiple platforms as well.
Even ordinary people can upload classic songs sung by those stars.
Some are destined not to be popular, and it doesn’t make much sense to put them on those platforms with high traffic. It’s better to put them on your own website in the name of exclusive resources, and you can contribute some data.
The traffic of the website is increasing, and the number of real online users is also increasing.
And the income of several singers signed by the company is getting higher and higher.
When they first wanted to sign them, except for Xiaoyuan, the others were not very happy, thinking that the company was too cruel, and according to that contract, it was a contract of sale.
But now, those bar singers in the circle are very envious of them, and even if they want to sign in, they can't sign in, and they realize how lucky they are.
Yan Xin has no intention of signing more singers for the time being, unless he encounters one that catches his eye, then sign it and concentrate resources to support it.
I haven't encountered such a case, and these five are enough for now.
——The main reason is that he doesn't have much inventory in his stomach, and the supply of these five to three to five years is still enough.
A few more would eat up his stock.
If you signed the contract but have no ability to make the other party develop well, that is, it will delay the other party and waste your own money, so it is unnecessary.
This time I went to the company for an afternoon of talks. Everyone generally has strong confidence in the future and the spirit is positive, which makes Yan Xinyou very happy.
However, he found that Xie Jun, the music director, was not in the right mood. Although he often had a smile on his face, he occasionally showed a negative expression.
Can't help thinking: "Has he discovered any hidden dangers in the company's development?"
After the symposium ended, he stopped Xie Jun: "Director Xie, you're in a bad mood today. Is there something wrong with the company?"
Xie Jun was stunned for a moment, with a wry smile on his face: "The company's development is booming, and no problems have been found for the time being."
"But I see that you sometimes look sad, what's going on?" Yan Xin asked.
Xie Jun hesitated for a while before saying, "It's not about the company, it's about me... The girlfriend I've been dating for a few years ran away with someone..."
