Chapter 271 The New Chinese King and Album Copyright

"If I can't blush when I say goodbye, can I still have red eyes..."

Xu Yang reached out from the quilt, fumbled around the pillow a few times, and turned off the alarm clock.

This is the alarm clock Liu Shishi set for him, and it uses a song he sang, which is considered a bad taste.

Xu Yang returned to the capital after Tang's death, and Liu Shishi was with him.

The main thing was to take her for a walk around Talent Co., Ltd. and let everyone know the proprietress, and then Xu Yang had a meal at Liu Shishi's house the next day.

Liu Shishi left the capital and returned to the Magic City on the third day, so he really just followed Xu Yang back for a walk and a trip home.

This was what Xu Yang forced her to do, otherwise Liu Shishi would be too lazy to do anything.

After all, they were going to live together in the future, so Xu Yang felt there was no need to hide it from the person next to him.

The most important thing is that Xu Yang believes that Liu Shishi cannot cheat him, she will not be Ma Rong or Li Xiaolu.

Liu Shishi left, leaving Xu Yang who was exhausted.

At this time, Xu Yang felt that girls with good flexibility really couldn't be carried by ordinary people.

"It's necessary to buy some supplements..."

Xu Yang looked at his slightly haggard self in the mirror, held his waist and made up his mind.

"How can this beautiful body be damaged by beauty and staying up late? Get up early and go to bed early today!"

Your appearance has nothing to do with beauty, right?
Having said that, there is also a reason for the alarm clock Liu Shishi set for Xu Yang.

It has been several days since the new album was fully launched, and the overall trend is developing well.

The most popular song is definitely "The Ordinary Road". This song is second to none in terms of popularity and quality.

Below are the two songs "Relief of Sorrow" and "Youth and Promise", which are respectively ranked second and third on the most searched songs list of major music platforms.

This is also to be expected. After all, the quality and popularity of these two songs are not bad. Coupled with the first-mover advantage, it is understandable that they are at the forefront of the overall list.

But No. 4 is not "You Were a Boy" which was first released, but "Little Lucky" which was released at the end along with the rest of the songs from the new album.

In this regard, Xu Yang can only say that she still underestimated the impact of this song on middle school students, especially female students.

Many fans who were just passers-by felt inexplicably more fond of Xu Yang after listening to this song.

I already had a good impression of Xu Yang, so after hearing this, I immediately became a fan and became a member of the Little Yangshu.

Black fans also tend to turn from black to white. After all, apart from some celebrities, the largest proportion of black fans are always students or even female students.

And the song ranked No. 5 in the entire album is actually "Someone Like Me", which is also a song that came from behind.

However, more people still go for the title of the companion volume to "Xiaochou".

However, there is one thing to say. Obviously the former has better quality and is more mature, but more people like "Xiaochou".

Xu Yang guessed that there are two possibilities. One is to take the opportunity to vent emotions. This kind of "Relief of Sorrow" is more suitable than "Someone Like Me".

The other is that they like things with flaws. After all, nothing is perfect. The closer it is to perfection, the less outstanding the whole thing will be.

Unless it's an almost perfect song like "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky" or "The Ordinary Road", critical people can say they don't like it, but judging from the content alone, they can't fault it. Dead duck.

The opposite is "Xiaochou", which has obvious advantages and disadvantages. Xiao Heizi will say that this song is too ordinary and too popular, but people who like it will like it for various reasons, and most of those who don't like it will come here. Just go.

And sandwiched in the middle, "Someone Like Me", which was deliberately produced towards the level of perfection, has no obvious shortcomings, but the advantages are no longer comparable, but it is considered mediocre in everyone's eyes.

Among the songs on the album, the song that ranks second in popularity and playback is "You Were a Boy". This song is as Xu Yang expected.

This is an excellent song, and the inner meaning of the song is also a good choice, but the obvious problem is that it lacks stamina.

Therefore, Xu Yang put this song on the first list based on its content and potential. If it really wanted to put it on the line later along with the other songs, then it would be absolutely desperate.

Then there are "Light Chaser" and "Sparrow". The popularity has become normal here, but it is still as popular as the title song of a new album by a first-line singer.

After all, the recommendation of the whole network is not limited. The entire album or more can have resources that others envy.

The following songs cannot be said to be crotchless, but compared to the previous songs, both the popularity and quality are not as good, so it is reasonable to give them less resources.

But even so, the resources received by each song, even the most popular one, are equivalent to the resources remaining in the entire album of a first-line singer except for the title song.

In other words, Xu Yang's album called "The Ordinary Road" is actually the least popular one and has the title song of a first-line singer.

After the entire album was released, everyone probably knew the popularity and quality of the ten songs.

Four of the songs are phenomenal songs, three are quasi-phenomenal songs, and three are boutique hits.

This kind of album is very rare to come across in ten years, let alone this year, and there may not be one in the future.

Because Xu Yang collected all the famous songs in the Chinese music scene in the next ten years, he created this special album.

Therefore, even a cheater like Xu Yang will definitely not be able to put together an album with this kind of lineup in the future, let alone one without cheaters.

If an album with this price really appears in the future, then he must be cheating.

While the overall popularity of the new album continues to rise, countless old songs by Xu Yang have also been played out.

Whether it is the heartfelt and tearful "Father" and "Where Has the Time Gone", or the sad "Suddenly Missing You So Much", "Say Good Not to Cry", "Cheers", and "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky" A number of phenomenal songs such as "The Wind Rises" and "Chasing Dreams" have taken on new life this year.

The scene at this time is almost exactly the same as when Milk Tea Week released an album after seven years. Milk Tea Week relied on the status and memories accumulated over the years. Xu Yang really used his strength to open up the situation this time.

Of course, the biggest profit from the new album is still a number of music platforms, which have completely opened up digital music channels.

Among them, Penguin Music has made the most money, not only making the cake bigger, but also eating the most.

Because the online copyrights of Xu Yang's previous songs were all owned by Penguin Music, the total copyright fees for five years were [-] billion. Now it seems that he can indeed make money by buying them.

After all, just based on Penguin Music’s increased market share this time, these old songs by Xu Yang are worth the price.

Of course, it can't all be smooth sailing. On the fifth day after the new album was released, Penguin Music negotiated with other music platforms.

In the end, it’s unclear what price Penguin Music paid, but as a result, Penguin Music came out, and all songs except Xu Yang’s new album were removed from the rest of the regular music platforms.

Xu Yang even speculated that once the limelight of the new album has passed, he will renegotiate some benefits through the copyright of his songs.

Because only Penguin Music, a music platform, controls all of Xu Yang’s music copyright, this is unrealistic and impossible.

The most likely result is to exclude the music platforms that pose the greatest threat to Penguin Music, and then re-license to those smaller music platforms.

Naturally, the fees for these small platforms to purchase the copyright of desire are paid by the small platforms themselves, and they even have to share a little bit with Xu Yang.

Because of this, Xu Yang not only did not stop it, but was happy to see it happen.

Who can make money while lying down? !

This is also the main reason why Xu Yang sold almost all of his music copyright to Penguin Music.

From 10 to 16, the music copyright system went from chaos to perfection. It was even more chaotic than the [-]s.

Because at this time, it is not only a confrontation between singers but also a confrontation between platforms.

Even the confrontation between singers is not so important in the face of the confrontation between platforms.

After all, no matter how strong the singer is, he is only one person, but the platform is related to the interests and needs of countless singers.

It is impossible for a platform as powerful as Milk Tea Week to compete with the platform on its own, but if the platform operates singers with the price of Milk Tea Week to compete with other music platforms, the effect will be no less than a nuclear bomb.

Although today's Xu Yang has not yet reached the level of a nuclear bomb like Milk Tea Week, after all, his qualifications are far behind, and his time is also seven or eight years behind.

But no matter how you calculate it, it should be the price of an intercontinental missile, and its strategic deterrence status is also good.

Therefore, it is definitely one of the best plans for Xu Yang to hand over the copyright to Penguin Music for operation in recent years. As the final winner of many music platforms, Penguin Music’s consistent approach is to buy, buy, buy. Penguin Music’s wealth is its label.

Why the three giants of Penguin Music have such a high status in the hearts of music fans in later generations is not only because of their unique music styles, but also because of Penguin Music's strong support.

But now that Xu Yang is here, what are the three music giants, please step aside!
Xu Yang believes that these copyrights he owns can be used by Penguin Music, and it is not impossible to even rely on them to support his retirement.

But if it were him, it would be impossible to have such a result, because Xu Yang is just a person, and behind the platform is capital.

While Xu Yang's new album is making a killing, the Chinese music scene has fallen into a state of silence.

Xu Yang really shocked everyone this time. Whether it is from the quality of the album, the popularity of the album, or the resources behind the album, it seems that there are only a few people who can rival Xu Yang at the moment.

In history, those who have achieved such achievements as Xu Yang are all the current kings, queens, kings and queens of singers. Many of them are already senior celebrities of the last century.

Since the New World, it seems that only Milk Tea Zhou has achieved such results.

So no matter how many awards Xu Yang receives for his album next year, at least in the music world, Xu Yang has been truly crowned the king, and a new Chinese king has been born.

Although some people thought that Xu Yang was only in his early twenties, they had nothing to say.

Five albums in five years. Except for only half of the album in 09, among the other four albums, the least popular one also has two phenomenal songs, "Because of Love" and "The Year in a Hurry".

This album alone is enough to scare countless people in the Chinese music world, not to mention that there are three albums whose quality and popularity are far higher than this album.

So even though Xu Yang is only in his early twenties, why do people have objections to him being crowned the new Chinese King?

The results of four and a half albums are here, who doubts it?Who is against?

And just when Xu Yang's new album was making great progress and his old songs were rejuvenating, someone came over from Penguin Music.

The purpose of the visit was also very clear. They came for the copyright of Xu Yang's new album.

After all, the popularity on the Internet is so high. If we don’t get the copyright of the album, there will be no place to cry if someone else takes over Penguin Music first.

Of course, this time they still used the krypton gold method and gave Xu Yang a price that was hard to refuse.

"Zheng Yuan once had a song worth [-] million. Even though there are factors of the times, it is enough to illustrate the value of his music."

"However, times have changed, and it is indeed difficult to have a song worth 1 million yuan, but half a million yuan is not bad."

The people from Penguin Music were sitting here, calm and composed, talking in a leisurely manner, as if they were not talking about a big project worth hundreds of millions, but something worth tens of dollars in a store.

You really have to decide for yourself!

Xu Yang sighed in his heart, but he had to admit that the other party did have such confidence and strength.

As the most popular song of the new album, "The Ordinary Road", Penguin Music plans to buy out the four-year copyright for 5000 million, while the slightly inferior "Song of Sorrow" and "Youth and Promise" are worth 3000 million for four years.

"Little Lucky" is 500 million and four years, "Someone Like Me", "Sparrow" and "You Were a Boy" are all 500 million and four years, and the remaining three songs are all 1000 million and four years.

The total copyright of the ten songs in the entire album is nearly [-] million, which is more expensive than the total copyright of all the songs that Xu Yang discussed last year.

Of course, the market price changes every year, and Xu Yang knows this, but the price given by the other party is too high, scary.

"Director Lin, just tell me. If you have any other requests, I will agree to it." Xu Yang replied with a wry smile.

Director Lin smiled slightly. After Xu Yang said these words, his basic task had been completed.

"We have no special requirements. We just hope that Mr. Xu Yang can give us limited consideration when his copyright expires in four years."

Hearing this, the expression on Xu Yang's face became more complicated. Sure enough, no one was a fool. They had already seen through Xu Yang's thoughts.

But so what, anyway, the beneficiaries are Penguin Music and other music platforms, and Xu Yang just drank the soup.

Now that Penguin Music is giving him face, Xu Yang naturally has to continue. Do you really think he has a lot of weight?

"This is natural. Four years later, I believe the market and the times will make the right choice."

Director Lin stood up with a smile and said, "Then, happy cooperation."

"Pleasant to work with."
