Chapter 184

"You did that friend of yours a favor?"

Li Qing's eyes lit up, she automatically put the "little favor" aside, and quickly asked Xia Muqing, "Girl, what did you do for your friend?"

If Xia Muqing helped his friend and his friend wrote the song for her, then it would be easy to ask for a song.

Xia Muqing is not stupid, as soon as Aunt Qing said these words, she knew something was wrong, so she said as casually as possible: "It's really just a little favor."

"Oh, that's because you helped him, so he wrote these two songs for you." Li Qing nodded: "In this case, do you think your friend can help you write the other songs in this album?" Write the song too?"

"This one……"

Xia Muqing frowned.

Before, she didn't know the value of these two songs, so naturally she didn't care, she just thought that these were two good songs written by her friend, but now, after knowing the value of these two songs, she It's not so natural anymore. After thinking about it for a while, Xia Muqing didn't answer this question right away, but asked instead: "Aunt Qing, according to the market, how much is the two songs my friend wrote for me worth?"

"This one……"

Li Qing hesitated.

On the contrary, she was gentle, feeling that she understood what her daughter meant, and asked Xia Muqing: "You mean to spend money to buy his other songs?"

Xia Muqing couldn't say too much, so she nodded.

Li Qing, on the other hand, heard that, her eyes lit up immediately, and she owed favors to begging for a song directly. It would be a different matter if she gave money. She nodded quickly and said, "This is a good way. Buy it..."

After finishing speaking, facing the curious eyes of her best friend, Li Qing explained: "If you are a songwriter like Chen Zhe, you need at least 1000 yuan for a song, but if you are a newcomer author, um... four to five hundred should be about the same ..."

Wen Wan asked curiously: "Who is Chen Zhe?"

"Chen Zhe, you don't even know?" Li Qing said in surprise, "The lyricist of "The Loess High Slope", "Blood-Stained Grace", and "Let the World Fill With Love"."

"..."

Wen Wan's face turned red immediately: She has heard all these songs, that is to say, for such a songwriter, can he get at least 1000 yuan for a song?She suddenly felt that 500 yuan for a song to her daughter's friend was not a lot at all... No matter how good you are, can you be as good as Chen Zhe who wrote "Blood-stained Grace" and "Gaotu Gaopo"?Chen Zhecai gets 1000, you get 500, is it too much?
But Xia Muqing frowned, and asked Li Qing: "Aunt Qing, you mean that my friend can only get 500 yuan for writing a song for me?"

"Well, almost," Li Qing nodded. After finishing speaking, she hesitated for a while and said, "But for the sake of my daughter, if he can arrange the lyrics and music together, I will give him 1000 for each song... This is already It’s the price of a well-known songwriter in the industry.”

Speaking of this, Li Qing looked at Xia Muqing, and said seriously: "Girl, 1000 per song, this is the highest price I can offer in front of me. Think about it, a record can contain about 10 to 13 songs, which is about 10000 yuan per song. It means that our publishing house has to pay 13000 to [-] yuan for lyrics and music.

Since you want to make a record, you should know more or less about this industry. I believe you also understand that the price is really sincere. It is impossible to give such a high price, and Auntie has to convince the public. It is impossible to give a price that is too outrageous. I can only give you a price as high as possible within the scope of everyone's approval. "

Xia Muqing nodded silently.

She also knew that Aunt Qing was not lying. In this era when workers’ wages were only 300 yuan, Aunt Qing was very sincere in offering lyrics and music fees equivalent to four to five years’ salary of an ordinary worker. If it wasn’t for her own In terms of face, it is really impossible for her to give such a high price.

But for some reason, she always felt that Zhang Qihang might not agree.After hesitating for a while, Xia Muqing asked Li Qing: "Aunt Qing, if we cooperate, how much money can I get?"

Li Qing was stunned for a moment: "You mean a percentage draw?"

"Ah."

Xia Muqing nodded.

"The calculation method here is very complicated, involving sales volume and the popularity of singers," Li Qing did not hide it from him: "Generally speaking, the more records are released, the more singers will get; Red, the higher the proportion of the share that can be obtained, in addition, it also involves the proportion of the share of some commercial performances...

Ordinarily, new debut singers are not eligible to get a share at all, but who told you to be my daughter? Aunt Qing will definitely fight for the best dividend conditions for a singer of your level. In this way, singers get 10% of the sales share. How about 10% for more than 12 copies? "

Newcomer singers get the share, that is the treatment that only young singers who have had one or two popular songs before but have never released an album can get. Ordinarily, Xia Muqing is absolutely not qualified to receive such conditions, but who let himself and Wen Wan's relationship is unusual, since Xia Muqing opened his mouth, he had no choice but to give such a condition.But even so, Li Qing felt a little unhappy, thinking that Xia Muqing was too greedy.

Wen Wan heard the words, and immediately looked at Xia Muqing.

Under her mother's watchful eyes, Xia Muqing nodded slowly, expressing that Aunt Qing was right, as an unknown newcomer, if you can find someone who is willing to help you release a record, it will be enough to make you famous, and you will get a share of the sales?You go dreaming!Just thinking about her own thoughts before, Xia Muqing said: "Aunt Qing, that's what I think. Can the fee for lyrics and music given to my friend be considered a dividend?"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Li Qing to speak, she hurriedly explained: "This money can be paid directly from my share."

Li Qing didn't expect Xia Muqing to say that. She froze for a moment, then smiled and said, "Get it from your share? That doesn't matter, but if your record sells 10 copies, it means that you can at least Get 10,000+, so much money..."

The implication: Are you willing to pay such a large sum of money?
Wen Wan heard the words, and looked at her daughter with some displeasure: Hey girl, are you stupid?Also take the initiative to distribute money to others?

Li Qing smiled: "That's it, I'll call my friend, if he is willing to help me write a song, we will follow this."

........................

Coming out of Li Qing's place, Wen Wan couldn't help asking Xia Muqing: "Girl, have you made up your mind? Are you really going to share it with your friend?"

Xia Muqing laughed when he heard it: "Mom, when did your dignified university professor take money into his eyes?"
