Chapter 335: 7 million sky-high music copyright fees (page 12)
"Our company just learned about this, otherwise we would never recommend it to our customers..."
Listening to the agency sister hurriedly asking for compensation, Zhang Lin felt drunk!
Why is it so difficult to buy a house by yourself?
But when he thought about it again, he secretly felt lucky and felt that he was indeed blessed by nature.
Otherwise, if we spend hundreds of millions of dollars in cash, the real estate certificate cannot be issued due to violations by the developer, and the children will not be able to go to kindergarten in three or four years, it will be depressing to death.
The most important thing is that this place really has bad feng shui!
Chaoyang District has enough buffs, plus these monsters and ghosts as neighbors, my God, what kind of people live there!
Evacuate quickly! Evacuate quickly! !
Basically, when Lin Yongjian mentioned the celebrity resident, Zhang Lin gave up the idea of settling here. When he learned that the developer still had problems, he was determined not to want it.
Based on this, the day's trip ended without any problems.
After going home and resting for a night, I was invited to a key primary school the next day to participate in a symposium on "roots, veins and soul: experts discuss the creation of children's literature in the new era".
Why was Zhang Lin able to attend this symposium?
Mainly because his "Xiao Zhang's History" is easy to understand and has an interesting writing style. It has become a very popular historical science book recently and is deeply loved by primary school students and junior high school students.
With this excuse, the organizer invited us many times with a very sincere attitude.
Considering the other party's attitude, coupled with the fact that it was a positive activity and it was still in the capital, CCTV executives agreed to the invitation.
It's just the content of the symposium. You can tell by looking at the listless and droopy look of the children under the sun.
It’s still very official, so don’t say it!
Zhang Lin also spoke at the symposium, and only said harshly, "You are great, you work harder than I did when I was a kid." This made all the guests extremely embarrassed.
You must know that Xu Ke, deputy dean of Zhou Shu College of Humanities, spoke eloquently for almost forty minutes before finishing.
Not to mention the boring nature of this symposium, Zhang Lin received some good news in the evening.
Just today, Alibaba and Penguin made a unanimous offer to win Zhang Lin's song copyright.
This offer first went through CCTV, then to Fanxing Media, which holds the copyright of "Young Summer", and finally reached Zhang Lin.
After hearing this, Zhang Lin was shocked and said: "I just signed a contract with Wang Yiyun for less than two years, and we are still in the contract period!"
"As long as you are willing to sign the exclusive copyright, both companies are willing to pay liquidated damages."
Li Yan's hearty voice came over the phone: "These big business owners are very arrogant when it comes to spending money. They don't care about the 2000 million liquidated damages."
Zhang Lin made a sound and fell into deep thought.
Speaking of which, in order to win over him, Wang Yiyun gave him a lot of benefits during this period and made up for him in various ways.
But compared with the two giants, Goose Factory and Ali, the disparity in all aspects does make them look stingy and shabby.
You know, because of me, Wang Yiyun has made crazy money this year.
If nothing else, let’s just talk about the most recent song.
As soon as it was released, eight of the top ten most searched entertainment items on Weibo that day were related to me. Among them, the most popular one, #张麟主歌#, had more than 9 million views.
In addition to the carnival of fans, capital is also caught up in the pursuit.
Within 10 minutes of the release of the song MV, Net Yiyun Music had played it 85 times and received nearly 20 likes;
It only took 1 hour and 47 minutes after it went online, and it broke all records such as the total number of plays, the total number of shares, and the total number of comments.
On Station B, the title song MV reached 1 million views and over 230 comments within one hour of its release;
So far, the number of views has reached more than 169 million, with a total of 1699 million people leaving messages and more than million likes.
In addition to Wangyiyun Music and Bilibili, there are also video platforms such as Douyin, all of which have joined this "king of traffic battle."
Only Penguin Music, which has no copyright, is lying flat as always, anxious and angry.
From the data point of view, the traffic siphon effect of his superstar has made multiple platforms "full". Just relying on the word "Zhang Lin" can increase DAU by 15%.
Such traffic temptation will definitely attract the two giants, Goose Factory and Alibaba.
Look at others, the signing fee is 2 million, how can it be compared with Wang Yiyun's less than million.
For capitalists, Zhang Lin has no psychological burden and puts interests first.
After thinking for a while, he nodded and said, "Then you can talk on my behalf, and try to talk to a higher level."
"What's your psychological price range?"
"At least 3 million in three years!"
As soon as these words came out, a rapid coughing sound came from the other side.
After a while, Li Yan's disbelieving voice came: "How much? 6 million? Did I hear it correctly?"
"Yes, it's 3 million in three years."
Zhang Lin answered firmly, very confident about the amount.
In the previous life, in 2015, Jewel was licensed to NetEase Cloud for the first time, with a licensing fee of 870 million yuan, which rose to 1818 million yuan in the third year;
Subsequently, Alibaba and Goose Factory Music began to compete for the copyright of Jay Chou's songs. In the end, Goose Factory Music spent 5.7 million yuan to buy the exclusive rights for three years.
Jay Chou has been popular for more than ten years, and his fans have grown up and are gradually restrained by the heavy life, and are no longer as crazy about chasing stars as they were when they were young.
Just like the fans of a certain battle questioned Jay Chou.
I asked why even though Zhou Yilun doesn't appear much on Chaohua, the tickets for every concert are sold out in a few minutes.
In fact, these remarks are not completely brainless.
In today's fandom, fans have a very thorough understanding of concepts such as super talk, which is indeed a yardstick for measuring a star's popularity.
Correspondingly, there are resources and benefits obtained by celebrities.
There is no doubt that celebrities who talk a lot are more popular.
Zhang Lin not only has a huge reputation now, but is also a frequent guest on Chaohua. The quality of his music is also surprisingly high, and he is endorsed by the state. The asking price is completely within the reasonable range compared to Jay Chou.
After receiving a positive reply, Li Yan said speechlessly: "Brother, our "Yang Young Summer" became a hit, but we didn't make as much as 6 million in the end. Are you too bold?
3 million in three years, you have the guts to ask for it. "
After laughing, Zhang Lin said, "Just go ahead and talk boldly. No matter what happens, there will always be someone to protect you, and you won't have to worry about no one wanting you."
With a hiccup, Li Yan said, "Okay then, I'll talk as you said.
I'm just afraid that when I tell you the price, the other person will look at me like a fool. "
"Stop talking nonsense and just do as I say."
Too lazy to talk to this guy, Zhang Lin looked outside the door and said, "Okay, that's it. I still have work to do, so I'll hang up."
"Hey, I still..."
Listening to the electronic blind voice coming from the mobile phone, Li Yan, who was about to speak, got stuck in his throat. After being stunned for a moment, he put down the mobile phone with a grin.
"This guy, the shopkeeper is getting more and more stupid!"
With a sigh, Li Yan heard a knock on the door.
After saying "come in", he saw an assistant in OL uniform come in and said crisply: "Chairman, Chang Li, the deputy director of Echang Music Company, is here. Vice President Xian arranged him to stay in the reception room No. 1."
