From elementary school music teacher to superstar

Chapter 116 Let's talk first

"Okay, I see, goodbye."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Xin frowned.

The KK music platform accepted his application, but he could only apply in the name of the company, and also needed to complete the change of qualifications.

These are all fine, but the conditions are really too harsh.

The three albums are divided into [-]-[-], nonsense, this is it.

"Qiao Qiao, let's stop here today. Don't practice too much these few days, and go to Beijing with me at the weekend."

Seeing Jojo stop, he said.

"it is good."

Qiao Qiao nodded. What Lu Xin meant was to let her add some breathing exercises to her original singing skills.

She didn't know the reason, but with Lu Xin's already demonstrated level and reputation, in terms of music, he was naturally what he said.

She must have been obedient.

What's more, the studio also spent money to find a teacher for her to learn. This is really necessary for Qiao Qiao. She used to explore by herself, and she just sang by instinct. She didn't know if her singing skills were good enough. question.

After the two separated, Lu Xin went upstairs along the stairs.

Good vocal music teachers are all in Beijing. He found a well-known one through Guang Feng Hui, and asked Qiao Qiao to study for a while.

It just so happened that he also planned to go to Beijing on the weekend, so he brought her there by the way.

On the 5th floor, the studio is being renovated, and Wan Ya is also there.

She used to live in a hotel, but later she went to Zhang Yan's neighborhood once, and she felt pretty good, so she also rented it.

The two of them are mostly in charge of the recent decoration.

When Lu Xin told her the reply from KK Music, she was also stunned.

After a while, she said angrily: "Isn't this a money grab?"

Judging from the sales volume of Lu Xin's two previous albums, "Notepad" is an EP, so let's not talk about it. "Grateful Heart" and "Quick Song" both sold more than 100 million copies.

Even if it is calculated based on platinum sales, that is 2000 million.

If the platform fee is deducted at 600%, it is 1000 million, and at [-]%, it is [-] million.

This gap is 400 million.

Three, that is more than 1000 million.

More than 1000 million yuan, isn't this stealing money?
"Or... the first three albums we will..."

She spoke halfway and looked at Lu Xin.

Lu Xin was taken aback for a moment, and soon understood what she meant.

"No."

He shook his head, "You can't break the signboard."

Wan Ya's meaning is obvious, aren't you going to deduct my income from the three albums?
Then my first three albums don’t make any money, so I just do whatever I want. The less I sell, the less deductible I will be.

It's okay to do this, but Lu Xin doesn't intend to use it.

He has participated in the lyrics or production of three albums, and the sales volume is very high. "Grateful Heart" is about to reach 200 million copies.

If you deliberately make a few albums that sell poorly, it would be too deliberate.

Wan Ya asked, "Then what are you going to do?"

"Let's talk about it first, if it really doesn't work."

When Lu Xin went to Beijing, he planned to go to the headquarters of KK Music. It would be best if he could talk, but if he couldn't talk, he couldn't accept this request.

It's not just about money, if the other party's attitude is like this, maybe something else will happen in the future.

He planned to leave immediately, but in the end there were two choirs left in the city to participate in the provincial competition, one of which had Happiness Road Primary School.

Zhang Ruoxi and the others occasionally miss class because they have to rehearse.

It is up to Lu Xin to make up for it. He is busier than before, so he can only go there on weekends.

In fact, when he talked to Guang Fenghui this time, he also got a piece of news.

That is, TT Music finally has faith. It has been in secret development and is currently in the final stage of internal testing.

It's likely to be live soon.

This is good news.

It is not an easy task to be a mobile phone client of a music platform.

Not to mention other things, for a complex and complete client with tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of users, the R&D cost alone will cost tens of millions, or even more.

This is not counting the cost of maintenance and promotion, and the cost of purchasing copyrights is even more numerous.

You can't have an empty platform without songs on it, and it's impossible to have only new songs without old songs before, so it's impossible for someone to use it.

It is difficult for ordinary companies to enter this field, at least at present he does not have the strength to do this.

The monopoly of KK Huaxia Music Network in the computer age stems from the fact that it is controlled by the four major record companies, and the four major record companies have owned more than 80% of domestic music copyrights in the past few decades.

That alone makes it hard to beat.

Speaking of which, Lu Xin really admired the original leaders of the four major records, who were able to occupy the entrance of this channel in time when the Internet was just emerging.

It is no longer like the original traditional era, sales of records are also subject to channel business.

They are not only producers, but also distributors, directly facing the audience.

Moreover, based on the success of the computer era, users can be gradually transferred to mobile phones.

It can be said that even in the mobile Internet era, they still have the greatest advantage.

This is also the reason why the four major records act so domineeringly.

But now that Internet giants like TT are coming in, things may be different.

I wonder if KK Music has noticed its own crisis.

……

On Saturday morning, when Lu Xin and Qiao Qiao went to Beijing together, an amazing news broke out in the music world.

After a period of sales, the "Grateful Heart" album officially reached 200 million copies.

Completed the first double-platinum record achievement since the era of digital albums.

For a while, Lu Xin was talked about by everyone again, and the news that his studio was about to expand, and that he might even form a company, quickly spread in the industry.

Tianle Records, Ye Jiantian's office.

Ye Jiantian was facing the computer at the moment, with an incredulous expression on his face.

He picked up the phone on the table and dialed out, "Is there any notification for tonight's celebration?"

"No, Mr. Ye, do you want to notify me now?"

In the microphone was his secretary's voice.

"Don't notify me for now, wait until I call."

After hanging up the phone, he called the finance department again.

As soon as the call was connected, Ye Jiantian asked, "The commission prepared for Lu Xin has not been transferred yet, has it?"

After getting no answer, he paused and said, "Don't transfer it yet, wait for my notification."

After hanging up again, he made a third call, "Old Wang, come to me."

Putting down the phone, he leaned back in his chair and shook his head.

He had originally planned to hold a platinum celebration party this week, but the development of things was somewhat unexpected. The album "Quick Song" has only sold 30 copies in just five days this week.

Including the first two weeks, there are 157 million copies, and there are two days left in this week.

Considering that "Grateful Heart" has already sold 200 million double-platinum copies, he suddenly felt that "Quick Song" would not really be able to sell 200 million copies.

In the contract signed with Lu Xin, the commission of 200 million is different.

　Thank you Dingdang for your reward.Thank you everyone for voting.
