LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 35 Dig him over to me!
On the Internet, the song "Learning to Meow" continues to become popular, and "Bai Suzhen at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain" suddenly rises to prominence, which quickly attracts the attention of Jinye's old rival Xingcan Records.
In the general manager's office on the sixth floor of the Xingcan Records Building near Yongding Gate on the South Second Ring Road, Zhao Wenshan, the company's vice chairman and general manager, was discussing the matter with music director Wei Kai.
"What happened to Jinye recently? He keeps making big moves? According to our initial analysis, Lin Nana's "The Final Countdown" could have dominated the list for at least seven consecutive weeks, but it was kicked off the top position after four weeks. Like How can a song as popular as "Learning to Meow" reach the top of the charts?"
Zhao Wenshan, with his slicked back hair, is a bit incredible.
Wei Kai felt helpless after hearing this. He leaned back with his thin body and smoothed his long hair before saying:
"Although "Learning to Meow" is not high in terms of artistic value, this does not prevent the audience from liking it, but this is the market."
Speaking of this, Wei Kai looked serious: "Jinye's other song "Bai Suzhen at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain" should not be underestimated. It has now ranked third in the major rankings, second only to "Learning to Meow" and "Learning to Meow". "The Final Countdown", but I believe it will surpass these two songs soon!"
"More importantly, this kind of ancient style of singing with a dramatic accent seems to me to have created a genre of pop songs! And it will still be popular in the future, so we have to take precautions and think of some ways in this regard."
After listening to Wei Kai's analysis, Zhao Wenshan nodded with appreciation.
He admired Wei Kai's vision very much.
As a music director of a company, you are not only able to discover singers and good songs, but more importantly, you must have a keen vision.
It is very important to seize the future hot spots of the market.
"Wei Kai, have you noticed that the songwriter of the song "Learning to Meow" and the song "Bai Suzhen at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain" are both written by the same person: Yu Dongqing!" Zhao Wenshan sighed.
"Mr. Zhao, I've known this for a long time. Not only that, I also discovered that the just-released "Jianghu Inn" has a very explosive soundtrack called "The Little Knife Club Overture", which is the BGM of the last appearance of the protagonist. It was also written by Yu Dongqing!"
"He actually wrote that soundtrack?" Zhao Wenshan gasped after hearing this. "To be honest, the film was average, but the BGM was so hot! Who is this Yu Dongqing? I seem to have never heard it before Pass this person."
"Mr. Zhao, have you forgotten? Yu Dongqing debuted more than ten years ago and sang a few good songs?" Wei Kai reminded.
"Oh" Zhao Wenshan slapped his head: "I remember, it's him. Well, the young man is quite handsome and has a good singing voice. At that time, our Xingcan was planning to sign a contract with him, but he got sick and his vocal cords were damaged. Yes, I know this is a pity. Later I heard that he entered Jinye and became an arranger?" Zhao Wenshan finally asked.
"Yes, I have learned specifically that Yu Dongqing entered Jinye as an arranger and has always been unknown, and he has not been much reused in the company. But for some reason, his talent has suddenly emerged recently and he has written several fire songs in a row!"
Zhao Wenshan slowly turned the boss' chair and suddenly leaned forward to look at Wei Kai: "Then do you think it's possible for us to poach him? Let's sign a special contract for him! In addition to the fact that the copyright of the song belongs to him, the copyright of the song belongs to him. The share of the profit is also tilted towards him! Go against the company for sixty-four years!"
When Wei Kai heard this, it was a big deal!
Generally, the copyright share that companies give to copyrighted creators is at most 40-60%, with the company taking the lion's share.
"this."
Wei Kai pondered for a moment: "That's good, but that Yu Dongqing may not agree."
Zhao Wenshan was a little confused and asked: "Why?"
"Because Wu Lan, the music director of Jinye Records, is an alumnus of Yu Dongqing. The two have a good relationship. He has been taken care of by Wu Lan for so many years in Jinye. According to people, this Yu Dongqing is very nostalgic. "Wei Kai explained.
I see!
Zhao Wenshan pondered for a moment and raised his head: "Despite this, I still want to try! I don't believe that Yu Dongqing will have trouble with money! Wei Kaiqian goes to see him, make my intentions clear, and dig him over for me!"
Wei Kai was a little embarrassed and thought for a moment before saying, "Okay, Mr. Zhao, I have a friend named Zhang Yang who has a good relationship with Yu Dongqing. Let's see if we can persuade Yu Dongqing through him?"
"Okay, no matter what method you use! Just tell him how much Jinye pays him as a daily salary, and we, Xingcan, can double it!"
As he was about to get off work this afternoon, Yu Dongqing was packing up the things on his desk when he suddenly received a call from Zhang Yang: "Dongqing, are you okay tonight? Let's go have a drink."
"Going to Yimin's tavern?" Yu Dongqing asked with a smile.
"No, I'm tired of going there all the time. Let's change places. How about Yan Jingliang?"
Ah? Yan Jingliang?
Yanjingliang is a restaurant belonging to Haytt hotels. It is located on the 66th floor of the Park Hyatt Hotel on Jianguomenwai Street, Chaoyang District. It has a 360-degree view of the charm of the ancient city BJ and the style of the modern metropolis. It can not only overlook the Chang'an Street below. , and you can even see Xishan from Guomao at a glance, which is a place frequented by celebrities.
As one of the high-end consumption restaurants in the imperial capital, it is also a new consumption landmark in Yanjing. The price is naturally high, with the average consumption price per person being around a thousand yuan!
It's not that Zhang Yang can't afford the money, it's just that we are all old friends and there is no need to go to these flashy places.
Wouldn't it be better to find a cleaner barbecue stall, drink beer and have skewers?
"Zhang Yang, is something wrong?" Yu Dongqing felt keenly that Zhang Yang was acting strange today.
"Haha, something happened, and it's a good thing! It's not my treat today, it's a friend of mine. You'll know when you come!" Zhang Yang said on the phone.
So mysterious?
Yu Dongqing was very curious, but she happily agreed.
After work, I took the subway home first, changed my white shirt and trousers into a T-shirt and casual pants, and then drove straight to Jianguomen.
After arriving at the Park Hyatt Hotel, he parked his car in the underground parking lot and took the elevator straight to the restaurant on the top floor of the building.
The entire restaurant uses dark wooden floors with inlaid pebbles and brick walls designed in Yanjing Hutong, presenting guests with a low-key and simple Chinese-style courtyard entrance.
Entering the restaurant, you can see that it is surrounded by water features, bamboo forests and Chinese banyan trees, providing guests with a quiet outdoor garden above the noisy city.
At a table by the window, Yu Dongqing saw Zhang Yang wearing overalls. Next to him was a thin, middle-aged man with long hair in a T-shirt. He looked like a literary and artistic worker, as if he had seen him somewhere.
Yu Dongqing strode over. Zhang Yang and the man both stood up. Zhang Yang introduced with a smile, "Dongqing, this is Wei Kai, the music director of Xingcan Records, who is also a good friend of mine."
"Hello, Mr. Yu, I've heard of you for a long time." Wei Kai took the initiative and stretched out his right hand.
Xingcan’s music director?
No wonder he looks familiar.
Yu Dongqing was secretly surprised.
Why did he come to find me? Are you going to this high-end place to treat guests?
There was a vague answer in my heart.
