Entertainment: Starting from the talk show contest

Chapter 94 Cover!Are you not infringing?
In just two or three days, Jiang Qin's song " The cover version of "Wan Jiang" has sprung up like mushrooms after the rain.

Among them are not only covers by Internet celebrity bloggers, but also covers by other starlets.No matter whether they sing well or not, they have gained several times more traffic than usual.

Especially those with relatively better singing skills have tasted the sweetness and received a lot of praise from netizens.

After that, there was even a singer named Yang Wang who sang this song directly at a celebration party on a certain local station.

This time, however, it sparked some controversy over copyright.

After Yang Wang sang, he returned to the backstage and began to accept live interviews with reporters.

Facing the camera, Yang Wang looked radiant, obviously he hadn't recovered from the audience's enthusiastic feedback just now.

The reporter pointed the microphone at Yang Wang and asked, "Mr. Yang Wang, did you have any contact with Jiang Qin himself before singing tonight's "Wan Jiang"?"

Hearing this question, Yang Wang subconsciously replied: "No, no, I have never been in touch."

The reporter was stunned. In fact, his subtext was asking Yang Wang if he had been authorized to sing Jiang Qin's song publicly.And the other party seemed to mistakenly think that he was a gossip reporter, and the purpose of asking this question was to dig up some gossip and find out about the relationship between the two of them, so he categorically denied it.

As an experienced reporter, he felt that he was underestimated by Yang Wang.

After an awkward laugh, he said more bluntly: "So you mean, have you not obtained Jiang Qin's authorization to perform?"

This time it was Yang Wang's turn to be stunned.He never asked about it at all, and it was his manager's idea to ask him to sing this song at the ceremony.

As we all know, if it is not authorized by the original creator, as long as it involves making profits by covering other people's original songs, it is considered an infringement.

Therefore, strictly speaking, those who sang cover songs on online video platforms are already infringements, not to mention those who perform directly at local TV celebration parties like Yang Wang, which are even more serious infringements.

Before Yang Wang could figure out how to answer, Yang Wang's agent standing by the side stood up and interrupted the reporter's interview.

"Sorry, this question is not within the scope of our interview."

The agent also had no way to lie directly to the live broadcast camera that he had obtained the authorization, because if he did that, he would probably be exposed by Jiang Qin himself, and it would be even more irreparable.

Now block the question back first, in order to prevent any further troubles, you can go to Jiang Qin to discuss the authorization in private afterwards, maybe you will be more passive at that time, and you will have to let out a lot of blood.

But it's too late to regret it now, who made him want to take advantage of this advantage?I can only admit that I am unlucky.

The main reason is that many people sang Jiang Qin’s song before, and it seems that no one mentioned the authorization, so he felt that his own artists can sing without authorization, saving tens of thousands or even 10,000+ Isn't the licensing fee good?He just wanted to gamble on his luck.

It happened that the artist of his family was caught by the reporter when he sang a cover, which made things a little complicated.

But the reporter who was turned back was not so easy to dismiss, and immediately smelled something unusual.If it is true that Yang Wang did not get the authorization, then after this incident is exposed, it will definitely attract huge attention from the society. After all, Yang Wang is also considered to be a relatively prominent second-tier artist, and Jiang Qin's song is currently popular among the whole people. Listen to the hit songs.

Then, as he himself who unearthed explosive news, his popularity and value in the entertainment journalism industry will also rise accordingly.In any case, there is no reason not to take this opportunity.

Facing the live broadcast camera, he asked forcefully: "To perform Jiang Qin's songs on stage, she needs to obtain her own authorization. This is a topic that is closest to this interview. Is it possible that your artist is not authorized? Under the circumstances, is it directly used for stage performances?"

At this time, the audience in the live broadcast room were also caught off guard by the mouthful of melon that was accidentally stuffed into their mouths.

"I'm going, what's the situation?"

"No way! Yang Wang's cover song infringes copyright?"

"Brother Wang, don't! I don't want to collapse the house! [Cover face]"

"If something goes wrong, there must be a demon. If there is no infringement, I will answer normally [wit]"

"Does Yang Wang know about it? I am more concerned about this [eat melon]"

"This reporter is such a dick! A true warrior who dares to face the dragon, I admire him!"

"This dead manager, I guess Yang Wang was tricked by him [angry]"

"Everyone, don't jump to conclusions, let's take a look, I believe that Yang Wang's behavior is [crying]"

"Singing is pretty nice, but infringement is wrong! 【狗头】"

"If this is true, we have to publicly apologize to Jiang Qin and compensate the infringement fees before it can be settled."

Because it was Yang Wang's live interview, apart from ordinary netizens, most of the audience were his fans. When these fans learned that Yang Wang might be involved in copyright infringement, they felt a sweat for him and worried about it. It will ruin Yang Wang's reputation and even his lifelong career.

Just when everyone had different opinions, the agent couldn't answer the reporter's question, so in a hurry, he went over and cut off the live broadcast.

Many netizens watching the live broadcast behind the screen were even more confused by this operation.

After they reacted, everyone realized that Yang Wang might have constituted a de facto infringement. Although it is still uncertain whether it was from his original intention, there was indeed a problem.

After they couldn't watch the live broadcast, everyone ran to the scarf to talk about this matter. As more and more people participated in the discussion, Yang Wang's cover of "Wan Jiang" copyright infringement became a hot search that night.

And a lot of media accounts are following up and reporting on this matter.

Because there are a large number of artists and Internet celebrity bloggers who have sung Jiang Qin's songs these days, after Yang Wang's cover infringement became a hot search, other people who sang the covers were also compared and discussed by netizens. Everyone is guessing that these people Is it the same as Yang Wang, who has not obtained authorization from Jiang Qin.

Netizens directly mentioned the names of those people in the comment area of ​​the popular news, and even manually tweeted them, asking them to come out and respond.

Many netizens are saying that if this is true, then these people are bad artists or bad Internet celebrities.

After paying attention to the rumors about this incident on the Internet, those who had sung "Wan Jiang" were a little panicked.They can be noticed by the majority of netizens, and they all have a certain degree of popularity.If in the end, because of this incident, they ruined their bright future and thriving career, it would be too worthless.

For this reason, they each pondered over the countermeasures, and even some people with a sense of urgency are already asking public relations companies to help them analyze and publicize.
