Plane Merchant's Family History

When Xue Yan returned home, his mind was full of what happened just now, and he still felt baffled until now. Although Lu Bo said that he would send him a song after returning home, he was not in a hurry to turn on the computer, but put the purchased vegetables into the In the refrigerator, I soaked the vegetables I was going to make for dinner in water, and then I slowly turned on the computer and logged in to □□. Sure enough, there was a message for a friend request, so the person named Lu Bo also lived nearby.

He passed the verification of the other party, and at the same time, a new email message popped up in the lower right corner, but he was not in a hurry to read it. He didn't intend to show off or anything, but because he didn't hold expectations and didn't want to puncture it so quickly, he got up and walked to the kitchen. I made a vegetable salad for dinner. Over the years, in order to maintain my figure, it has become a habit to eat only vegetables at night. When the salad was ready, he returned to the computer with a small bowl the size of a palm, and slowly opened the mailbox. , while putting lettuce in his mouth, while looking at the staff that popped up on the screen.

"Chilian? It's a hypocritical name." Xue Yan had already passed the age where he was full of fantasies about love. When he saw the name, he instinctively gritted his teeth, and even tasted a sour taste from the lettuce in his mouth.

This is a slow song in four or four beats. He roughly read it once, and after the second time, he had already begun to try to hum the tune along with it. The more he hummed, the more frightened he became. unnatural transition.

Xue Yan put down the bowl in his hand in surprise, hummed again, then stood up abruptly, ran to the next door in a hurry, took out his beloved violin, stood in front of the computer, looked at the score and began to play. In the deep melody, I felt it carefully, because it was the first time to play it, it was inevitable that it was a bit unfamiliar, he played it four or five times in a row, and by the sixth time, he could already sing along with the lyrics.

The lyrics rely on the melody, and every sentence reveals the sadness of infatuation and fruitlessness. After the performance of the violin, there is even a whimper.

With an unbelievable gleam in Xue Yan's eyes, he stood in front of the computer in a daze for 10 minutes, then rushed to the computer with a stride, his hands trembling with excitement, and he tapped the keyboard loudly.

"I watched the song, it's very good!!!" After Xue Yan finished posting, he couldn't stop digging at the desktop because of anxious waiting. At this moment, he understood Lu Bo's mood after adding him as a friend. Impatient and bitter, I am a past singer, will the other party really let me sing this song?

Xue Yan couldn't sit still, and began to sing a cappella again. It was only the second time, and he already felt very catchy.

No wonder Lu Bo reacted slowly. When Xue Yan replied, he was eating, and when he heard the □□ prompt, he read it immediately. Seeing him patronizing the computer, Lu's mother couldn't help complaining, "After eating first, then play computer."

Lu Bo had to eat in a hurry, and then sat down in front of the computer. After seeing Xue Yan's response, he couldn't help laughing. He put his hands on the keyboard, and didn't know what to say for a moment. Ben the theme, anyway, he has songs now, and he is not afraid of being controlled by Xue Yan, "I want to sell the song, but I don't know how to operate it. I hope to cooperate with you."

The other party replied almost instantly, "The song you made is very nice and catchy. Is this the only song you have, or do you have others?"

"There are others."

On the other end, Xue Yan had such an expression. He really wanted to see if Lu Bo's other songs were as good as this "Crazy Love", but he also knew that he hadn't talked about anything yet, and the other party couldn't give him any more. For his other songs, he gradually realized that the other party used him as a springboard, but he didn't mind, because he could also benefit from it, but at the same time he was excited, he couldn't help but feel a little sour, "Why don't you sing it yourself?"

Xue Yan thinks that those who can make such excellent songs must have excellent musical skills, and now he wants to confirm how big Lu Bo's ambitions are.

Lu Bo was glad that the two of them were chatting through the Internet, and now he was grinning with guilt. Before eating, he crammed up the staves and only memorized some basic knowledge, "Uh, I don't sing very well."

Xue Yan recalled, "No, your voice is quite nice."

"No, no, I don't sing very well."

Xue Yan couldn't figure out Lu Bo's real thoughts, so he took a step back and said, "I think you are very talented, with a solid foundation in music, and an outstanding appearance. If you enter the entertainment circle, you will have more advantages than others."

"No, I don't plan to enter the entertainment circle, I just want to sell the songs." Lu Bo thought for a while, and then added: "Of course, I hope to sell them at the right price. I know what these songs are worth. .”

Xue Yan didn't believe it, and thought that when you saw the beauty of a star, you should be moved, but he naturally wouldn't rush to persuade Lu Bo, and at the same time, he was secretly startled by "these songs" that Lu Bo said, How many songs did the other party make?Is every song as good as "Chilian"?

"Indeed, your songs are very good, you can even say very old-fashioned."

After feeling guilty for a long time, I became numb, "^_^"

"I want to buy this song, how are you going to sell it?"

"How can it be sold?"

"Generally speaking, there are buyouts and sharing, but I don't recommend you sharing. It's not for my own sake. You also know that the current record recession, and now the songs are profitable. Part of it comes from singer performances, and part of it is through online platforms and Carrier sales, because the song needs singers to sing, entertainment activities and promotional fees, so it will be more troublesome if it is really split. For example, if you buy a song in the form of splits to a certain network platform, the other party will never give it to you Guaranteed sharing agreement, after all, no one can guarantee the number of downloads of this song, and in the case of ordinary sharing, the other party will also have clauses such as "deducting promotional fees and charting fees at the time of settlement", and how much is the final fee? Everything is up to the other party.”

Looking at the long list of words, Lu Bo felt a headache. Selling songs was only a means for him to make money. Naturally, his focus was still on the plane store, so he also hoped that the simpler the better.

"And you can sell off the right to use the song at a high price, so that the other party (regardless of the network platform or the singer) will naturally work harder to promote it, because you need to earn back the purchase cost, which is more beneficial to you as a newcomer. Maybe ordinary citizens will only see it. This song, this singer, but people in the circle will definitely focus on the songwriter of this song, and when you become well-known in the circle, the price of selling songs will also rise." Xue Yan can't say that there is no such thing at all. Selfish, but it's really good for both of us.

"If it is bought out, how much can the song "Chilian" be sold for?"

Xue Yan replied quickly, obviously thinking about it a long time ago, "I want to buy out the right to use this song exclusively for five years, which means that after "Chilian" becomes a song in the future, I will have the right to sell it to everyone. The right to the platform, as I said before, no matter how good a song is, it must be sung by people, right? And you know the Internet situation in China, and the price I offered was [-]."

After such a long series of words before, the price was finally mentioned. Lu Bo couldn't help swallowing when he looked at the last two words. He had naturally inquired about relevant information before. Although it was a buyout price, the price was not Low, after all, he is completely unknown, and he still has so many songs in his hand. If he sells them out to Xue Yan, he can let him go. And we will continue to cooperate with Tan Song in the future.

Lu Bo repeatedly comforted himself in his heart, but at the same time he thought that this song should be used to test the waters first, anyway, he would not lose money if he bought and sold without money.

"Row."

Over there, Xue Yan let out a sigh of relief, then beamed with joy, and couldn't help laughing out loud. He might be betting, one hundred thousand is already a sky-high price for an unknown songwriter, but he just bet that this song can fire!

"So when will we sign the contract? Is there any problem with the copyright of this song? Have you notarized it?"

"I registered on the timestamp."

"It's not enough to just register on the time stamp. It's just a proof of electronic copyright. You have to go to the Copyright Office to register."

Lu Bo's heart tightened, "I'll go to the Copyright Bureau tomorrow."

"Well, after the notarization is complete, we will formally sign the contract. I will draft the contract first. During this period, you can take a look at it first. I hope that you can sign the contract directly after completing the formalities."

"Ok."

"If you still have songs, I hope to give priority to me."

"You've helped me so much, so of course I won't forget it." When Lu Bo said this, he didn't mean to completely trust Xue Yan, but to imply to him that as long as you don't have any deceitful psychology, I will thank you for your help. .

Xue Yan obviously heard Lu Bo's implication, and he couldn't help explaining: "The model of the domestic music scene is very different from that of foreign countries. Most foreign singers make money by charging download fees, which is obviously not satisfactory in China. Domestic singers Most of them rely on their songs to become popular, and then rely on subsequent activities, concerts, and advertisements to make money. Of course, for second- and third-tier singers, concerts may only serve as a promotional function, and may not really make much money. After all, venues, stages , Manpower needs money.”

When Xue Yan said this, he was spreading himself out, "In the future, you will understand that singers don't make money by selling records anymore, just like our T City, can you still see video stores?"

Lu Bo nodded in front of the computer. Indeed, except for some large bookstores with audio-visual sections, there are no special audio-visual stores in other places. He said, "It's really like this."

"Well, then I hope we can cooperate happily."

Lu Bo happily typed these four words: "Happy cooperation."
