The King of Crossover Entertainment.

Chapter 107 0106, Songhai Tactics

Yunfeng and others came to the private room booked by Chen Cheng. As soon as they entered, Chen Cheng arrived.

"It's hard to find a parking space here. Every time I drive over, I have to drive to the street in front to park." Chen Cheng came in and started complaining.

"The situation is like this at this time of night. There will be no empty parking spaces at Yipinfang, and the parking spaces on this street are basically full." This is one of the reasons why Yunfeng did not go to learn how to drive.

"Brother Chen."

"Hello."

……

After greeting each other, Chen Cheng asked, "Have you ordered?"

Yunfeng shook his head and replied, "Not yet, we just arrived too."

Chen Cheng handed the tablet computer on the table to Yunfeng and said, "Order whatever you want to eat."

Yunfeng took the tablet and said with a smile, "Then I won't be polite."

Chen Cheng smiled and said, "Why are you being so polite to me?"

After ordering the dishes, Yunfeng took the opportunity to tell Chen Cheng about Xiao Tianpeng and Xu Mengwei.

"I welcome you with open arms." Chen Cheng originally wanted to find an opportunity to win over Yunfeng's friends. How could he refuse something that came to his door? He also directly answered the two questions Yunfeng asked: "First, considering that you are only freshmen, you don't have to come to the company except for recording songs and shooting MVs. Second, I can give you a three-year growth contract, with a 70% to 30% split."

There is sincerity, but it is definitely not the same as Yunfeng’s.

Yunfeng also understood that it would be impossible for Xiao Tianpeng and Xu Mengwei to get a high share without any fame or works.

The 70:30 split is the second lowest level, but it is a growth-oriented one. If the popularity increases, it can go up. The most important thing is the length of the contract. Three-year contracts are not available among newcomers. As for the one-year contract that Penguin Entertainment said it would give to the champion of the Campus Singer Contest, in fact, during the negotiation, it will be changed to a five to ten-year contract.

Overall, the contract that Chen Cheng gave verbally was good.

Yunfeng looked at Xiao Tianpeng and Xu Mengwei, who were whispering to each other.

Chen Cheng added: "You don't have to rush to make a decision. Think about it carefully for three to five days and then give me an answer."

Xiao Tianpeng and Xu Mengwei are both inexperienced and are newbies who have never been involved in this industry. They cannot tell whether the contract Chen Cheng mentioned is good or bad, because they have no reference for comparison and cannot weigh the pros and cons, gains and losses.

Yunfeng doesn't like others to make decisions for him, so he won't make decisions for others.

But I will give my own advice as a friend.

However, since Chen Cheng gave him a few days to consider, he would go back and talk to Xiao Tianpeng and Xu Mengwei.

In fact, if Chen Cheng knew that Yunfeng had a song for Xiao Tianpeng and Xu Mengwei, this would not have happened.

The dishes were then served and the topic turned to eating.

But after eating for a while, Chen Cheng couldn't hold back and asked, "Xiao Yun, you just told me on the phone that you have four songs to release. Are you kidding?"

Yunfeng wiped his mouth with a tissue and said, "Brother Chen, how could I joke about this."

Tang Yu, Xiao Tianpeng and Xu Mengwei became curious. They only knew two songs. One was a song confessing his love to Tang Yu, and the other was a song to be sung for Xiao Tianpeng and Xu Mengwei.

Chen Cheng felt relieved and asked again, "Are all these newly written by you?"

Yunfeng used the old method again and composed: "Some are, some are not. I wrote some lyrics before, and now I have made some changes and then composed the music."

Chen Cheng nodded and asked, "Can you tell me the name of the song?"

Yunfeng pointed his fingers and said, "'Free as the Wind', 'Friends', 'Confession Balloon', 'Steady Love'."

"Stable Love" is a song written with lyrics based on the tune written by Tang Yu.

As for "The Bund 18", since it was sung for Xiao Tianpeng and Xu Mengwei, it is not included in this list.

Chen Cheng roughly understood what emotions these songs were trying to express from the song titles. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Are you really determined to put all these songs on the charts?"

He was indeed unwilling to see Yunfeng's "Invisible Wings" fall out of the top ten of the new song popularity list, but he also thought that what the president said was correct.

Yunfeng asked back, "Can a person only have one song on this new song popularity list?"

"That's not the case." Chen Cheng shook his head and explained, "There is no limit to the number of songs a person can put on the charts. As long as they are new songs and released on Penguin Music."

Yunfeng nodded and said, "Then put them all on the charts. They will be released sooner or later anyway, so why not take advantage of the fact that there are many people paying attention now?"

The sea of ​​songs tactic has never been used before, but it might work wonders.

Chen Cheng thought it was worth a try. In fact, when Yunfeng asked him to release a song, he was of course very happy and willing to do it, and he would not refuse.

He remembered the contents of the contract very clearly. They were just a cooperative relationship. Yunfeng could release songs on his own or find other companies to release songs.

"The new song popularity chart will end on May 5st, which is only a little over a month away, so you need to record and upload it quickly so that we can follow up and promote it."

Yunfeng nodded and said, "I'll send the song to you later. If you want to record it, let's do it this weekend."

Chen Cheng had exactly three days to compose the music.

"Okay." Chen Cheng felt that the time was no problem.

Yunfeng added: "Oh, there is one more thing. My girlfriend wants to record a version of "Invisible Wings". Can it be ranked on the charts?"

Chen Cheng smiled and said, "The copyright is in your hands. As long as you authorize it, it's fine."

On Blue Planet, songs that are not covered with the author's authorization cannot be used for commercial purposes.

Yunfeng blinked at Tang Yu.

Tang Yu smiled at him.

After dinner, Chen Cheng drove them back to school.

On the way back to the dormitory, Xiao Tianpeng couldn't help but ask Yunfeng: "You understand the twists and turns in these contracts better than Weiwei and I. Can we sign the contract that Brother Chen mentioned?"

Yunfeng said sternly, "I'll tell you what I think. The final decision is up to you guys."

Xiao Tianpeng and Xu Mengwei both nodded.

Yunfeng continued, "I have been in contact with six or seven music and media companies, including Penguin Entertainment. The contracts they offer are generally divided into two types. One is a short term, less than five years, with a fixed share; the other is a long term, five to ten years, with a growing share. I personally think that the term and the share are equally important, and the contract Chen Cheng gave is short and the share is growing, which is pretty good."

After listening to this, Xiao Tianpeng said to Xu Mengwei, "Weiwei, I think you can sign it for three years, which means until your senior year. It's like finding a company for internship in advance."

Xu Mengwei nodded and said, "Well, then you can reply to Brother Chen tomorrow."

Xiao Tianpeng responded: "Okay."

On the other side, Yunfeng said to Tang Yu, "Why don't you help me share a few songs? It will take more than ten times to record four songs. My voice will be hoarse from singing."

Tang Yu frowned and asked, "How many?"

"Um..." Yunfeng changed the subject, "Two songs, we can each sing half, is that ok?"

Tang Yu said calmly: "Two?"

Yunfeng immediately lost his temper, raised a finger, and said, "One song."

Tang Yu said with a straight face: "One song?"

Yunfeng pouted and looked aggrieved.

"Pfft." Tang Yu couldn't hold it in anymore and laughed out loud, "Okay, I'll sing you a song, okay? I also want to sing "Invisible Wings", right?"

Yunfeng said happily, "You can choose any of the four songs."

Tang Yu said without hesitation: "I will sing "Steady Love"."

In fact, with Yunfeng's success rate in recording songs, it would basically pass on the second try. The purpose of doing this was just to let Tang Yu sing more. Anyway, he had a lot of songs in his hands, and he had the copyright, so he could record one version for men and one for women.

----

On the weekend, Yunfeng, Tang Yu, Xiao Tianpeng and Xu Mengwei arrived at the Azure Music Group early in the morning.

"The arrangement is all ready." Chen Cheng took them to the recording studio and asked, "Who will record first?"

Yunfeng said, "Let me record it first. It will be a good sample for them and we can take a break in between."

Chen Cheng asked again: "Then, which song do you want to record first?"

Yunfeng said, "Let's play 'Friends'. This song is easier to get the feel for."

After all, it was a song that made him cry in his previous life on Earth, and it was easy for him to get into the mood.

The tuner switched to the accompaniment of "Friends".

Yunfeng entered the recording studio, put on monitoring headphones, cleared his throat and started recording.
