Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory

Chapter 68: Gambling Again (please read, please recommend)
A few minutes later, when the director of the copyright department questioned the copyright issue, Walker remembered the document Wang Wenhui gave him. After opening it, he quickly found the document related to copyright authorization.

Although Wang Wenhui has always been engaged in children's business, there is really nothing worth criticizing in terms of professionalism. The licensing agreement in Chinese, German and English is intact.

At this time, the director of the copyright department asked Olaf: "Olav, I saw you commented on YouTube about the rock song that is now popular on this music platform. Do you think China's rock songs will be successful in Europe? Is it?"

Olaf didn't shy away, and replied directly: "If it is to be officially released in Europe, I think it needs to be recorded again. The current production level of this version is a waste of Chinese music and musicians' time for this song. Talent. If it is entrusted to me to produce, I feel that I can hit the EMA award."

Hearing that Olaf brought out the European Music Awards in a formal occasion like a meeting, the participants had to pay attention.

After all, this company's gold medal producer has no less than 10 EMA trophies on his body, and the EMA awards are all voted by the public, which is the best test of the market for music.

"So can this song be used as a breakthrough point for cooperation with Huaxia Music Platform?" asked the director of the marketing department.

Hearing this, Walker, who had been silent all this time, directly put the copyright authorization document on the table.

"Everyone, take a look, this is a license from The Rolling Stones. If everyone recognizes the quality and potential of this rock song, I suggest that we start with The Rolling Stones first. The scale of the Xiazi platform is indeed larger, and it may Get the copyright of more songs. But this also means that they will guide our choices for some benefits, but everyone knows that apart from folk music, this is the first time in recent years that Chinese music has left the Chinese circle in Europe …”

As soon as Walker's deceptive words came out, everyone at the meeting began to think.In the end, it was unanimously decided to follow the plan proposed by Walker. After all, if it is to cooperate with Xiazi, the time for communication and preparation between the two parties in the early stage will not be too short.

But it is different with Wang Wenhui and others. The cooperation of one or two songs can be launched in a short time, and the real reaction of the market can be tested in the shortest time and at the lowest cost.

After walking out of the meeting room, Walker looked at Olaf and complained: "Olaf, I regret the suggestion I gave Wang yesterday. You should know that Ni's video not only helped him get the authorization, but also made us thoroughly negotiate the price. Trapped in passivity!"

Seeing that Walker, a guy who talks about business every day, was frustrated, Olaf smiled and said: "Walker, you should thank me. If it was not Wang who got the copyright agent, but the music platform, do you think it would be easier for you? "

Hearing this, Walker suddenly smiled: "If I didn't know you and him well enough, otherwise I would suspect that you were in collusion before! I will call him now..." Walker is deeply impressed by Wang Wenhui's professionalism. With experience, he firmly believes that Wang Wenhui is definitely within a range of no more than 300 meters from the company at this moment.

Sure enough, when he hung up the phone and returned to his office on the 13th floor from the conference room on the 7th floor, Wang Wenhui had already appeared at the door of his office with coffee in hand!
"Wang, I will borrow a sentence from your Huaxia to give it to you. Gold always shines!" This was probably the first time Walker gave Wang Wenhui such a high evaluation in business.

"Walker, I don't deserve this sentence. I just made all the preparations and didn't give myself a chance to regret it in the future."

"Anyway, I admire your efficiency. Let's go in and chat. I hope we can reach a consensus today!" This is also the most polite time Walker has been to Wang Wenhui in business.

An hour later, Wang Wenhui came out of Walker's office anxiously, thought for a while in the public rest area, and finally decided to call Chen Shuting.

At 5:[-] p.m. in Spring City, Chen Shuting was reading the copyright exclusive licensing agreement sent by Xiazi Music. After seeing Wang Wenhui's phone call, she checked the calendar on the computer first to confirm that her memory was not in disorder before answering the phone.

Hearing the conditions put forward by Hoffman Company, she also lamented the efficiency and decisiveness of Wang Wenhui and Hoffman Company.

"Mr. Wang, your efficiency really makes me ashamed, thank you very much! As for the re-production of "Dye the Night Black", I want to consult Bian Lang, and I will try to give you an answer before noon. Other conditions you Just negotiate according to the corresponding market standards of European musicians, and you can decide on your own if the discrepancy is small.”

"Well, the works of the Rolling Stones and Mr. Bianlang must be respected and treated like this. I will not compromise on this. If Hoffman cannot reach an agreement with us on this point, I will continue to find ways to contact him. Other music companies.”

"Thank you, Mr. Wang, if you have any new progress, you can call me at any time, and I will turn it on 24 hours a day!"

After hanging up Chen Shuting's phone call, Wang Wenhui sat alone for 10 minutes before returning to Walker's office.

Half an hour later, Walker said reluctantly: "Wang, I think your betting contract is a bit too bold. It's just a tentative cooperation for the first song. If it works well, I promise you that it will be a little bit too bold in the future." We will follow the standards of European musicians for cooperation!"

Wang Wenhui resolutely refused: "This is not a question of money. Both Rolling Stones and I believe that the works of The Rolling Stones deserve the same treatment as European musicians! Don't worry, my savings over the years are enough to pay for this failed bet. I need to supplement your promotion fee later..."

Seeing that Wang Wenhui still refused to let go, Walker could only spread his hands and said: "Okay, I promise you, who made The Rolling Stones so popular on the Crazy scale now? The key is Bob's support. I hope your judgment is right, then we can all make a lot of money, right?"

Wang Wenhui smiled and said: "Walker, do you think we can bet on another bottle of champagne!"

Hearing this, Walker also laughed and said, "Is it private, then I will prepare a bottle of MOET&CHANDON for you. If you lose, I heard from Olaf that your wife's cooking skills are very good!"

"I hope we all win! Also, I hope you can keep this secret from Rolling Stone for the time being..."

……

Bian Lang received a call from Chen Shuting at 05:30, and heard that there was news from Wang Wenhui, so he asked the three who were about to leave after rehearsal to stay for a while.

After listening to Chen Shuting's narration, he also answered affirmatively: "This version of this song is really not interesting in post-production. How about it, I want to communicate with that Mr. Olaf first."

"Okay, let me communicate with them. The basic decoration of the studio will be completed tomorrow. You can move back from the piano store to rehearse." Chen Shuting informed the progress of the decoration by the way.

"That's fine, we'll come and have a look later..." After hanging up the phone, Bian Lang told the three of them that Olaf wanted to remake "Dye the Night Black". One of Dayong's reactions was : "I'm going on a business trip to Europe! It's ok, it would be even better if we can perform a few more shows!"

Before Bian Lang could say anything, Huang Kai responded directly: "Dayong, look at how beautiful you are. There are so many bands, who will pay for the travel expenses?"

"If we also invite people to come and record BJ, we have more than 100 people, unless it is a special music festival, it will be almost the same."

When Magpie said this, he was already ready to be teased back. Who knew that Bian Lang said: "This opportunity will definitely exist!"
