The upgrade starts with the anchor

Chapter 77 077. Exclusive authorization, refuse to sell songs

Zhang Yufeng asked curiously: "Student Wang Xiao, have you signed a contract with a brokerage company?"

Zhang Yufeng called his classmates and wanted to get closer.

Unfortunately, Wang Xiao stopped talking.

Zhu Ziqi picked up the phone and replied: "Hello, Manager Zhang, I'm not from the brokerage company, but simply Wang Xiao's manager, specializing in handling his contracts and trivial matters. Can we talk about the specific situation now?"

Zhang Yufeng put away his curiosity: "Okay, what's your name?"

Zhu Ziqi: "Just call me Xiao Zhu."

Zhang Yufeng smiled: "Okay, I'll call you Ms. Zhu. We learned that Wang Xiao's songs are all released on Wangyiyun alone, and he applied for an independent musician, but he hasn't signed a specific contract yet. We want to cooperate with Wang Xiao Xiao signed an exclusive contract, so that Wang Xiao's music will only be released on our Shenteng music platform in the future."

"Besides, we have a music company under Shenteng Music, and we also want to sign an artist contract with Mr. Wang Xiao."

Zhu Ziqi looked at Wang Xiao with questioning eyes.

Wang Xiao said in a low voice, "You can talk about the first one, but not the second one."

If you want exclusive online music copyright, you can talk about it, but if you want to sign a music company, you can't.

He doesn't want to be chained himself!

Zhu Ziqi immediately said: "We can talk about the exclusive online publishing contract. Wang Xiao has not thought about the artist contract for the time being. He is just an anchor now, so let's not talk about it for now."

Zhang Yufeng: "Does Wang Xiao always just want to be an anchor?"

Zhu Ziqi: "I'll talk about it later. Be a good anchor first. Wang Xiao just wants to make his own music now. Whether he sings as an anchor or sings in other ways, it's all the same to him."

Zhu Ziqi still remembers that Wang Xiao said that she likes to sing, this is a very pure love, and she is very supportive!

Zhang Yufeng was silent for a second, and said: "Mr. Wang Xiao likes to make music, and his music is so good, so it should be seen by more people. Our Shenteng Music has a bigger platform for him to show himself. music."

Zhu Ziqi: "So, we can talk to you about the exclusive release on the Internet."

Zhang Yufeng: "Hehe, Ms. Zhu is amazing. Well, let's not talk about other things first, let's talk about the network Du's contract. The conditions we give are the same as the shark's first sister Xi Feifei's contract in Wang Yiyun, exclusive Contract, we will give you promotional resources, share in advertising and fees, and give 300 million signing bonuses a year, with Wang Xiao's music quality, the annual income will not be less than 800 million."

They have calculated the specific data, and now Wang Xiao’s total downloads of a few songs on Wangyi Cloud have exceeded 150 million. This is only about half a month’s worth of data. 50 total downloads.

This kind of data is almost unique among the group of non-famous celebrity singers, and it is not comparable to any other Internet celebrity singing anchors and Internet musicians.

In the future, this data will increase, and the subsequent advertising and fee sharing will be extremely impressive.

Zhu Ziqi began to show the strength of the agent: "Manager Zhang, what do you think is the current popularity comparison between Wang Xiao and Xi Feifei?"

Zhang Yufeng: "For the time being, it's half a catty."

Zhu Ziqi said affirmatively: "Wrong, Wang Xiao's popularity has surpassed that of Xi Feifei, and don't forget, brother Xiao's songs are original, it's not like most of Xi Feifei's songs are cover songs, others also You can get authorization and cover songs, so you can listen to others if you don’t listen to her. Every song of our Wang Xiao is original. Without our authorization, others can’t use it as a commercial cover. Only our family can download it. It's truly exclusive."

"To sum it up, Wang Xiao's value is far higher than Xi Feifei's. As an online musician, I can't think of anyone who can compare with Wang Xiao. Manager Zhang, your offer is very dishonest."

Wang Xiao, who was eating steamed buns, gave Zhu Ziqi a thumbs up—awesome.

Zhu Ziqi blinked at Wang Xiao.

Zhang Yufeng's tone was a little weaker: "Then, Ms. Zhu, what price do you think Wang Xiao is suitable for?"

Zhu Ziqi immediately said: "According to the data I obtained from my investigation, Xi Feifei's 300 million one-year exclusive contract is already a contract two years ago, and the cooperation between Xi Feifei and Wangyiyun will expire next year, and it must be more than this price. Now online music Copyright has been taken care of by the state, and when infringement and piracy are gradually disappearing, the value of original music is even higher. I think that if you want to sign an exclusive contract with Wang Xiao, 2000 million a year is not too high."

After the crackdown on online piracy began, and when pirated music sources were almost impossible to find, the value of genuine music copyrights has increased significantly. Now the price of music copyrights is rising every year. This is one of the reasons why those musicians are becoming more and more lazy, because The copyright in the past can make them live a more nourishing life while lying down. Coupled with running variety shows, their income is no worse than before when they worked hard to produce albums.

The same is true of many established record companies, lying on their laurels, not daring to easily discover newcomers, for fear of losing money.

Zhang Yufeng on the phone was obviously silent for a while, obviously surprised by the price, and then said: "Ms. Zhu, 2000 million is impossible. I will talk to you in person to show our sincerity and importance."

Zhu Ziqi: "We also have sincerity, but I haven't seen your sincerity for the time being."

Zhang Yufeng: "Hehe, what Ms. Zhu said made me ashamed. How about this, let's take a step back, how about 1000? Exclusive contract, sign for three years, and pay [-] million after signing the contract!"

Zhu Ziqi looked at Wang Xiao.

Wang Xiao raised a finger, indicating that the contract was only for one year!
Zhu Ziqi nodded in understanding: "Manager Zhang, 500 million a year, and one contract a year."

Zhang Yufeng: "Impossible. Fifteen million a year is too expensive. The exclusive contract of a famous singer is tens of millions. One year is too short, at least three years."

Zhu Ziqi: "Well-known singers rely on their laurels and rarely release new songs. Our Wang Xiao is all original and new songs. Every song is very popular. It can bring a lot of new traffic and paying users. This is a huge advantage."

The two started to fight, back and forth, and talked for more than half an hour. After Wang Xiao finished eating, he wandered in shallow water on Weibo and fan groups for a while, and the two finally came to a conclusion.

Zhang Yufeng finally softened his tone: "One year is fine, 800 million."

Zhu Ziqi insisted: "900 million is our lowest price. If it is lower, there is really no need to talk about it."

Zhang Yufeng said helplessly: "Ms. Zhu, you are very powerful. Okay, I agree. I will send you the specific details of the contract. If you have any comments after reading it, you can raise them for discussion. If you have no comments, sign it and send it to us!"

Zhu Ziqi also breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, thank you, Manager Zhang, for a pleasant cooperation."

Zhang Yufeng: "I hope the cooperation will go well. You guys have caught up with the good times. Now the Internet copyright is very strict, and it is not easy to find a pirated version. A few years ago, we bought the five-year exclusive copyright of several heavenly kings, which was 3000 million. If this cooperation is happy, we may have more cooperation opportunities in the future.”

Zhu Ziqi: "I also hope that we can have a happy cooperation. Manager Zhang, you have said that it was a few years ago. At that time, piracy had not disappeared, and everyone was still used to piracy. Online copyright is not very valuable and has no income, but it is very different now. It’s hard to find pirated music on the Internet. When your two-year contract expires, you still want to continue to have the exclusive copyright of those heavenly king singers. I don’t think it’s impossible without hundreds of millions, right?”

Zhang Yufeng was silent. He knew that what Zhu Ziqi said was almost the truth, so he changed the subject immediately.

After a few words of hypocritical politeness, the two hung up the phone.

Zhu Ziqi put down the phone, jumped on Wang Xiao's back excitedly, and said, "It's settled, they will send you a contract later! 900 million a year..."

Wang Xiao heard the whole process just now, and gave Zhu Ziqi a thumbs up: "Excellent, big manager! Take a closer look at the contract when the contract is due, don't get involved in the competition between them and Wangyiyun. In the past two years, the two of them A large number of people were affected, and finally the higher-ups came forward to mediate and made Shenteng Music suffer."

Zhu Ziqi also remembered the music copyright disputes in the past two years. At the beginning of the copyright era, Shenteng Music hoarded a large number of exclusive copyrights with a lot of money.

And Wangyiyun started from piracy, never thought about copyright, never thought about spending money to buy copyright, it is best to make money for free, but after the official started to crack down on piracy, piracy could not be done, Wangyi Yuncai turned around and started buying copyrights, only to find that most of the copyrights of well-known songs had been bought exclusively by Shenteng.

At this time, Wangyiyun realized that they did not have much content to provide, and the copyrights of more than [-]% of the famous music were all in Shenteng, and once purchased, they were exclusive copyrights starting in five or six years.Once they provide the content, they will infringe the copyright. In the end, they have no choice but to start spitting, creating public opinion, and asking the higher authorities to mediate, saying that Shenteng is a monopoly, and asking Shenteng to share copyright free of charge. They want to use nothing to distribute copyright by crying , I didn't think about the interests of the original author at all, and only cared about myself.

Naturally, Shenteng was unwilling. The two families had been fighting openly and secretly for almost a year or two. In the end, Shenteng gave in. On the surface, Shenteng suffered a little loss and gave up some copyrights to Wangyiyun. I don't know what resource transactions there are on NetOne.

Those who pay attention to the cause and effect of this incident clearly know that Wangyiyun is not a shameful website, which is one of the reasons why Wang Xiao is willing to negotiate with Shen Teng before he has contacted Wangyiyun. Wang Yiyun's perception is not very good, and he is afraid of being cheated. There are not a few original musicians who have been cheated by Wang Yiyun.

Although Shen Teng is domineering towards the copyright, but he bought it for real money from the copyright owner, so he speaks with confidence.Wangyiyun started out as a piracy company, and started cheating many works under the banner of sharing. As a result, when the copyright was tightened, it was still shameless, and it made people speechless.

Zhu Ziqi said seriously: "I will read the contract carefully, and discuss with them if there is any problem."

Wang Xiao nodded: "Okay, that's right. Have you screened the applications on QQ?"

Zhu Ziqi took the mouse: "I roughly screened some, commercial performances, record companies, and music websites, what do you think specifically?"

Wang Xiao thought for a while: "Let's not be in a hurry for the time being. If I accept commercial performances, I will only accept local ones in Rongcheng for the time being. I don't want to go out of town. Record companies and others can be rejected first, and music websites can also be rejected now. We have already negotiated with them. Shenteng Music has settled the deal..."

Zhu Ziqi nodded: "What about the song inviters? A lot of people who said they came to invite songs, offered to buy out the copyright of your current songs at a price of around [-] to [-] yuan, and the copyright of new songs starts at [-] yuan."

Wang Xiao shook his head directly: "All those who invite songs will be rejected. I am not interested in selling songs, and we are not short of money. We will not sell any works. You can post this statement on my Weibo. We don't sell songs. No one will sell!"

Zhu Ziqi still nodded in support: "Okay, I'll post it right away!"

As he said that, Zhu Ziqi posted a short statement on Weibo for Wang Xiao: "Since many people have added me to invite songs, I declare that I will not sell any works, including released and unreleased, any invitations to sing No need for individuals or companies to look for me. I have no plans to release a record for the time being. Tonight, the Shenbing live broadcast room will release new songs too much, see you soon!"

Weibo quickly received tens of thousands of likes and thousands of comments.

"The most domineering musician, he doesn't sell any works, brother Xiao is a big critic."

"Brother Xiao, if there is a chance, can you make an album of your released works and put them on the market? I really want to buy an album for collection, every song is a classic."

"I've been waiting for a new song in the black screen live broadcast room. Brother Xiao's black screen live broadcast room is too popular today. The black screen has 200 million hits. Can you believe it?"

…………

The couple didn't go out all day, ordered takeaway at noon, and dealt with many trivial matters brought about by the surge in popularity in the small rental house.

Until around eight o'clock in the afternoon, Q popped up for the third time today, and it was still directly connected to Wang Xiao's live broadcast room.

Because, Wang Xiao's live broadcast time is coming soon.

At this moment, Wang Xiao just entered his live broadcast room, and saw that the popularity of the black screen was as high as 300 million, suppressing all the anchors of the Shenbing platform all day long.
