Chapter 256 The First Crooked Singer Selection Competition
"So what are you going to do now? Do you want to represent them?" Wang Zhengfei asked.
"Of course, I won't give it. Even if it's slower, we have to do it ourselves. With the sales of 2.5 million records at the bottom, we are already making a steady profit. Why should we make money for the people of Huayan International? And we can also take this opportunity to expand our overseas business. Why not do it? " Obviously, Gao Yan's ambition was suddenly stimulated by Wang Zhengfei's first sales, and he was quite dissatisfied with the malaise of the predecessor of Star Records in overseas distribution channels, but there was nothing he could do if he was not satisfied. If he was not good, he was not good at it. In this regard, he could only rely on Gao Yan's own hard work to make up for this. It's a short board, otherwise there's really nothing we can do.
"That's good. You can do it yourself. There's no need to do it for Huayan International!" Wang Zhengfei also agrees with this.
"Yes, but the release of the album in overseas regions must be a step slower. The packaging of the overseas language version, the negotiation of sales channels, etc. are annoying!" Gao Yan said with a headache. He didn't know that it was not easy to curse the company's senior management even if it could make the overseas sales channels so sluggish.
"Well, and now He Zhuoyan is also going to release an album. Now the collection of songs is almost completed, and the songs you promised are the main song!" Gao Yan said that after Wang Zhengfei, He Zhuoyan will also release his first solo album, and the little sister is going to release an album. It is really unreasonable for Wang Zhengfei, a senior brother, not to write two songs for her.
"I know, I'm ready for the song or something. If you want it, I can give it to you right away!" Wang Zhengfei said with a smile that although he had been busy with his own affairs during this period, he had not forgotten about He Zhuoyan's album. He had also promised to write a title song for He Zhuoyan's first solo album. Anyway, it didn't take much time. It may be difficult for others, but for Wang It's really not difficult for Zhengfei to say.
In the first song, Wang Zhengfei chose He Zhuoyan's own song "Counter-down to Three Seconds Say I Love You" in his previous life. The style is light and bright, which is catchy. It is a single released by He Zhuoyan's company for him.
And the second song, Wang Zhengfei chose the song "The Supply of Love" before Wang Zhengfei traveled through time. It was called popular, and it was not the ordinary popular kind. It was the opening song of the Qing Palace drama "Gong Suo Xin Yu". The music style was different and was deeply loved by fans. With the popularity of "Gong Suo Xin Yu", the song has been sung more and more by the public. It is basically uploaded and sung as a mouth-watering song. I don't know how many people are howling at this song all day long. Wang Zhengfei had a friend who liked this song very much at that time. He sang it several times a day, but his voice was very ordinary, and it was basically broken. Yin, it is also said that this song sings the touching true love in the play. People are always possessing and losing. Since it can't be eternal, we must firmly grasp the present, even for a moment. The touching tune and delicate emotions make people feel a lot.
But there is only one feeling for Wang Zhengfei. The song is not bad, but the words written by Yu's mother can only be said to be egg pain, and it is very egg pain. Then Wang Zhengfei had no choice but to say that you still sang. I was internally injured by your support.
However, although Wang Zhengfei was speechless about the popularity of this song, after all, it was still a catchy song, and He Zhuoyan's album asked to be popular, so in the end, Wang Zhengfei chose this song for He Zhuoyan.
"That's great. Wait a minute, just give me the song, and Yan Yan's album can start production!" Gao Yan said happily.
After the network storm set off in the outside world, millions of people were online to listen to Zhengfei's concert, and they were unwilling to be lonely and launched another activity, that is, the first crooked singer selection competition.
As soon as it was launched, it immediately attracted the attention of countless people.
Today, when more and more idol singers are trying to highlight their musical achievements through creation, the label "songwriter" is really nothing, because when a noun is overcharged, the highlights are no longer gone. In addition, in recent years, with the impact of the Internet on the pop music world, a large number of singer-songwriters have suddenly appeared on the Internet. When many works written and sung by those online singers fill people's ears, the name of "songwriter" is more common. Of course, for some singer-songwriters who have excellent grades and create a very personal style, there will still be bright characteristics that attract the audience.
Although, it is an indisputable fact that in recent years, with the renewal of equipment and technological progress, the level of music works has become more and more magnificent. However, because online singers are not like signed singers, they lack a huge team of production and coordination behind them, so they will always be weak and weak in the matter of "album" and "record". Yes, even if online singers have had a lot of hot singles, even if the film was released in the end, it just became a "single collection"! Look at the records released by the so-called "online singers" a few years ago or a few years later are the best proof.
And now the online singer super competition, although it is still a draft competition in essence, it is a rare opportunity for those online singers who do not have a chance to make a film, because it seems that there are not many people who will choose 20 online singers at a time. It seems that there are only 20, but in fact, I can't think so. Although there are more and more online singers now, can they be compared with regular contract singers? Relatively speaking, twenty can almost extract the essence of most of their online singers. This is also the most fundamental purpose of Wang Zhengfei and Xu Jiahao's planning this activity. They can trap most of the online singers and then let them serve the crooked. The fundamental purpose is still this.
But for them, it doesn't matter. As long as they can produce albums, as long as they can enter the top 20, the promise made is that they can sign a contract with them in the top 20. They can make money. From the eleventh to the twentieth, they can produce more than 10,000 albums, while the fifth to tenth can produce more than 30,000 albums. The second to fourth place is responsible for helping them produce 50,000 albums, and the first place is that they are responsible for releasing more than 100,000 albums. If you lose money, it is crooked. If you make money, it will be half with these singers. Of course, the songs of the album still have to be written by themselves. This can't be helped by crooked. Let's do it, but for these online singers, it is really not too difficult to write songs. Compared with regular singers who sign up, the biggest advantage of online singers is that the probability of writing songs is more than 90%, while in reality, only a few signed singers can write songs.
Especially for the champion, the crooked support is spared no effort, starting from 100,000 pieces, which is also rare among regular singers. Of course, this refers to the situation of newcomers. Now the music industry is becoming more and more sluggish, especially after the birth of MP3, the newcomers are generally It's difficult to get too many opportunities. 30,000 copies, 50,000 pieces or even less. First, test the market situation. If the results are good, then print a large number of records to prepare the next album. If the results are not good, hum, then it will be hidden. Anyway, there are many people who want to buy albums these days, and it's not easy to find!
But in the same way, the risk is also very high. You have to be responsible for your own profits and losses. If you make money, you have to share money with the singer. If you lose money, you can only swallow the bitter fruit by yourself. However, compared with the crooked users and heat that can bring, everything is worth it. Besides, there are not even one million of these records in total. It only needs to invest a few million yuan back and forth, but compared with the effect of advertising that can be hit, Wang Zhengfei still feels that it is very worth it. If this money is invested in TV advertising, what effect it can achieve is basically a waste of money.
Wang Zhengfei still has his own abacus on this point. He is not Shi Yuzhu. The set that Shi Yuzhu likes to play is not what he likes. Thinking about the advertisements produced by Shi Yuzhu he saw in those years, he really want to vomit when he thinks about it!
However, he still admires Shi Yuzhu. You know, it is not an ordinary thing to sell completely ineffective nutrients such as "Brain Platinum" and "Golden Partner" all over the country.
What Wang Zhengfei admires most about Shi Yuzhu is that Shi Yuzhu has pushed Zhengtu, a game of basically the same level as Legend, to the second online player in the country to the level of more than one million, which is simply a miracle.
(PS: It's not about the legend. At that time, the legend was really shocking, but from the current perspective, it is really inferior!) Wang Zhengfei has also created many miracles, but he sold a good result after packaging things that were originally good things, but Shi Yuzhu completely sold garbage as gold. With this ability, it is unique in China.
However, no matter what, the activity set off by Crooked has still attracted the attention of countless online singers, and they are eager to try. If they can win those 20 places, it is no different from Li Yuelongmen. They can not only use crooked financial resources to produce albums, but also the most important thing is that crooked does not limit their reality. If you sign a contract, as long as you perform well, it is completely possible to be favored by a record company!
