Chapter 218 Xiandan
"Although I do have a bit of talking to Lao Chen, but in the same way, you should know that a mature agent will not have any trouble for you, but will make you Do you know that our record market is quite sluggish now. Last year, not counting Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, just like the mainland, the singer we sell the most is Jane Zhang, which is the "I believe" that was made by myself Zhang's album. Guess how many you sold? "
"One million?"
"..."
Listen to Zhang Lina's words, Wu Mengqi was speechless.
"Xiaona, do you know what is the concept of 1 million copies? That is also a platinum sales certification in the United States."
"...We have so many more people than the United States, and we can sell less than one million copies. ? ”
Zhang Lina was obviously surprised.
Seeing this, Wu Mengqi nodded: "Well, last year, the only singer who could exceed one million was Jay Chou. His "Cross-Era" sold about one million for about one million. Zhang. ”
"Probably?"
"Well, probably, because no one knows the specific amount except Jerwell. But I guess they shouldn't sell it for one million, otherwise the company will definitely take it for promotion. Of course, This is not considered pirated... If pirated, it will definitely be a breakthrough. Oh yes, Lin Junjie, who you like very much, sold 400,000 copies last year's album "She Said", but like I said, we are not considered Hong Kong and Macao Taiwan, just talk about the mainland. Last year it was Jane Zhang's "I Believe", and she only sold 150,000 copies. "
"So little!?"
Zhao Hang subconsciously said .
But immediately realized that this was wrong, he waved his hand:
"Teacher Wu, I don't mean that, I mean..."
"I understand."
Wu Mengqi obviously didn't care either, and waved her hand and continued:
"But that's what the record market is, and, guess what she ranked last year's album ranking?"
"Top twenty?"
Hearing Wei Qianqian's words, Wu Mengqi smiled bitterly and shook her head: "No, eighth. The first few are Jay Chou, SHE, Lin Junjie, Wang Lihong, Yilin Cai, Mayday, and Chen Yixun. And the entire ten miles, Jane Zhang Ranked eighth, Li Yuchun ranked ninth, and Xiao Yaxuan ranked tenth. First, based on one million, the second-place SHE cut it in half, and the announced number is 500,000 points... You see, this is the current record Market trends. Most singers actually don’t sell well in their albums because they have a lot of online audio sources... If singers want to earn, they can only rely on concerts and online websites to purchase copyright. And for you For singers who are just starting out and unable to hold concerts, online music copyright can even determine whether you can continue to maintain food and clothing and walk on this road without starving to death.”
Speaking, He said to several people very seriously: "So, listen to me, even if you don't look for Lao Chen, find a reliable agent. It's good to have a dream, but the premise is to live first. .”
“…”
All of them were speechless, including Lu Yao.
Bai Yao also said: "I remember at the end of last year, there was a music producer named... Xiao Ke? Do you know Teacher Wu?"
"Well, I know him, what's wrong with him?"
"He said in an interview that the music album market is dead..."
"It's so absolute, but the real situation is actually similar. Producers like us didn't have to go on so-called variety shows or collaborate with any show ten years ago. But look, now I have to make a living. Running around, on those variety shows that I don’t want to be on, and giving them singers who have already set a ranking as music producers... Alas." Wu Mengqi sighed.
Obviously, the world is changing.
They also had to change.
But Lu Yao knew that for the entire music market, it was actually a period of pain.
Even this pain period is still very long.
It will last at least until about 17 years. When people truly began to monopolize the music or TV programs of some singers by several domestic audio and video sources platforms, they began to pay attention to copyright in the sense of... …
There is no way to do this.
Market decisions cannot be interfered with at all.
Copyright awareness has risen relatively late in the country.
When he heard Wu Mengqi's words, Wei Qianqian nodded: "We understand, Teacher Wu, when we meet Agent Chen tomorrow, we will have a good chat with him."
"Well, "Well," ... Have a good chat, and then wait for you to come back to see how you can promote this album. I can help, and it's almost over here..."
"Don't say that, we're already grateful There is no end."
"Ha..."
Although he could feel the sincerity in the eyes of several children, Wu Mengqi still smiled self-deprecatingly.
What a pity.
He said to himself.
If it were ten years ago...
Time will make people grow old.
...
Wu Mengqi left after dinner.
He is actually quite busy. Jane Zhang will release an album this year, and it is approaching the end of the production. As an album producer, he delayed the progress there because of no one else's survival.
Zhang Liangying was still a little dissatisfied.
But... As a music producer, Wu Mengqi actually saw it very clearly.
Although he inevitably bowed his waist for five dou of rice now, the same is true for him as a musician.
Zhang Liangying is competing with other singers for the market, just like an arms race.
The next album, called "Change", was created by the company that found musicians from the United States and South Korea, to consolidate and develop its status, and even want to An ambitious work to enter the international market.
Frankly speaking, those musicians are very big names.
But…that album is not pure.
At least in his opinion, it is very impure.
How pure can the singer be when pushed away?
But the picture "No One Survived" I handled is different.
He can truly feel the talent in the notes, the sincere emotions in the songs, and every song.
Bad jade.
This is what he really likes.
While favoring one and the other is more favorable, it is natural that he retreated to the second line in "Change" this time.
He doesn't regret it.
Zhang Liangying is no longer the same existence as her own student.
The world changes, and people are also changing.
He has long been used to it.
When thinking of this... the middle-aged man couldn't help but sigh.
It's not for Jane Zhang, but for these children.
The start of selling the album means that they inevitably move towards a market-oriented route.
Hope... they can try their best to maintain their original intentions.
Or, keep it for a few more years.
…
"This album...no matter how much it sells, Teacher Wu 4, you 6. We don't want a penny."
"...You have Are you sick? ”
Broken one car garage, in front of the trash can.
Xu Ruochen rolled his eyes when he heard Wei Qianqian's words: "I have no objection to give Teacher Wu 4 or 5. Let's just divide the rest equally... Why do you give it to me?" br>
"No, this is what we have agreed."
Wei Qianqian shook her head:
"And, the money for the album...we are also AA, if you lose money ...We will replenish you later."
"You're not finished, right?"
Mr. Xu was a little annoyed:
"I look like a person who is short of money?"
"We know you have money, But the truth must be made clear. The band is together, and the recording cost is a lot of money, we know."
"...Old Lu, save me quickly, I can't understand her."< br>
"Don't look for me, because I'm from her. I know you're not short of money, but the reason must be made clear. Of course, if you sell well, it's just like the production fee for the next album we pre-stored. Anyway, it's all It's yours, so just keep it. Oh yes, if you lose too much money, then we will take over the commercial show and pay off the debt... This is not my idea, don't stare, it's all of us to discuss."
"...Are you sick?"
Mr. Xu was completely speechless.
I thought that this money was not worth the money for a bar purchase for my buddy.
Lu Yao, you guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, wouldn't let it go if you don't speak for me, why did you stand on the side of the enemy?
At this time, Bai Yao patted his shoulder: "Just say that, everyone is for friendship. Besides, what if you make money? Let's divide it when you make money."
"Senior sister, you..."
"Okay."
Bai Yao smiled and shook her head:
"Is there anything wrong? Let's disband? Who are you going back to school?"
Lu Yao's hair stood up subconsciously.
But...
She just stared at herself.
"I..."
He opened his mouth.
"You are walking in school, right?"
Seeing him hesitating, Bai Yao asked directly.
"Uh..."
Lu Yao was a little stunned, so she nodded and asked to others:
"Where are you?"
"I'm going home, I have to pack up my things. Where will we gather tomorrow?"
Listening Wei Qianqian's words, Zhao Hang said casually:
Enjoying Wei Qianqian's words: >"On the airport."
"I can send you to you tomorrow. It just so happens that you three, you two will solve it yourself?"
After Bai Yao finished speaking, Wei Qianqian and Xu Ruochen nodded: "Yes, okay." "Then just say that, let's go." "Let's go." .”
In the corner of Lu Yao's twitching mouth, he was forcibly stuffed into the car and squeezed into the back row with Zhao Hang.
As we talked about the album, BMW arrived at the hotel.
"Lu Yao, go, go to exercise."
"..."
Lu Yao said in his heart that you won't act anymore, right?
"Where are you two? Go to the gym with me?"
"Ah no no no..."
Zhang Lina shook her head first.
How can a beautiful girl exercise?
I've been exercising, and the way I've walked on my belly is gone?
As for Zhao Hang...
"Senior sister, how do you all exercise?"
"First run five kilometers of aerobics, then start strength training, the whole process is about two hours. There are about seventeen or eighteen movements, are you going to do it? ? ”
"..."
Zhao Hang looked at his rib-shaped figure.
I thought you wanted to see me flap my butterfly flap my wings?
Hurry up and shook his head: "I can't, I...I still have something to do in the dormitory." "Okay, then tomorrow at 9:30, here's the meeting. Don't be late."
< br>"Yeah."
The two agreed and left together.
As soon as the two of them left, Lu Yao sighed: "Are you more obvious?" "Yeah, dare you talk to me?" "Senior Sister Leng Yan It seems to be a smile but not a smile. "You've been absent-minded all day... are you thinking about me?"
You really don't want to say it.
Lu Yao really feels like he is being flirted with.
"Let's go and have dinner with me tonight. You lost a lot of protein yesterday and need to replenish it. Let's take a break first, then have a meal. After dinner, you go back to pack your luggage and put it in my car directly. , I'll leave tomorrow."
"...Senior sister, are you really planning to not let me go back?"
No mistakes, one song, one content, one content One 6, one 9, one book, one bar, one read!
"What if it is?"
She shrugged:
"Don't you think the secret relationship between us is exciting now? And..."
Previous The senior sister who was still excited shook her head the next second: "I'm on holiday today, so I'll spend more time with me."
"But I want to go back and do the model."
"This day is missing?"
"..."
Looking at Lu Yao's speechless appearance, Bai Yao was very proud of her. A chuckle came out.
Ha.
Passive personality.
I like it so much.
Just just thinking about what is going to happen for a while, I can't help it.
…
"Wake up?...early."
"...Senior sister, it's time to exercise."
"Isn't this the same?"
"Same?"
"Well...shush, don't talk, Baby, you will be on the plane in a while. I will have to walk for three days. I can't stand it."
"Senior sister..."
"Shh. Be good, close your eyes."
"..."
At around 9 o'clock in the morning, before going downstairs, Lu Yao took out the health pill from his backpack without saying a word He said he lost two in his mouth.
He hasn't eaten this much during this period.
But…I have to eat now.
And the two felt that it was not enough, he threw another one into his mouth.
Watching the senior sister who walked out of the bedroom, wearing a normal sportswear and sweatpants, hiding all her beautiful figures, he was a little dazed for a moment.
It seems that the person last night was like a dream, just an illusion.
"Let's go."
"Well...you won't train this morning?"
"It's okay, it's more important to give it to you."
"Uh..."
"...I don't know how to speak love?"
Lu Yao was shocked.
I thought to myself that what you said just now was love words?
But the average dressed senior sister shook her head: "I'll learn slowly, go, don't delay the plane." "...Okay." br>The two went downstairs together. In the car, she asked for a leave in front of Lu Yao and went straight to the morning training.
After putting down the phone, she said:
"Come back early."
"...Okay."
Lu Yao nodded, looked at Zhao Hang who was dragging a suitcase and said:
" If you are too tired, you can do not train in the afternoon."
"...ha."
"What are you laughing at?"
"I like the way you care about me. It's very charming."
As she said, she shook her head:
"Don't worry, I'm in my heart I have a clear idea. Also, letting you come back early is not for anything else, I just want you to spend more time with me. I am going to Yunnan soon... I won't meet you for a month, I want to stay with you for a few more days. So, let me spend more Talking you for a few days."
"...Yes."
"Also, remember not to expose it in front of your girlfriend."
"...Why didn't you find that you are such a strong person before?"
"It's not that I'm strong, it's because I I know how to get along with you."
"..."
The car door opens.
Lu Yao did not respond.
Zhao Hang got into the car and muttered: "Why are the village girls so slow..."
...
...
At 10:30, five people The group met at the airport gate.
Then line up to get your boarding pass.
Zhang Lina looked very excited and chattered all the way.
Lu Yao was sweating all the time. "...Are you hot?" He asked Zhao Hang on the side.
?
Zhao Hang looked back at him and asked in wonder: "Why are you so hot?"
"...I don't know either."
< br>Lu Yao wiped the sweat from his forehead and tilted his head and drank a big mouthful of water.
Just feel very hot.
At this time, Wei Qianqian's somewhat surprised voice sounded: "We are business class?"
"Yes, the above prompts... the cabin has been upgraded on the 17th. Madam, you and your companions can go to the business class passage to check your luggage. "
"Uh..."
Wei Qianqian, holding her ID card, looked surprised, nodded politely to the ground crew, and asked several people in confusion: "Why are we business class?" Her first reaction was to look at Xu Ruochen.
"?What do you think I'm doing?"
"...What are you doing?"
"No."
Young Master Xu looked at you and said that you should not be wronged.
Although he usually goes out in either a private plane or a business class. But he obviously understood what it means to follow the crowd, so after the people from Hunan Province booked economy class, he did not upgrade.
At this moment, he looked confused.
But...
"Business class is business class. I guess they made a mistake at the beginning. We are guests, how could it be economic class?"
Hearing Mr. Xu's words, several people looked at each other, and they all looked at each other. A look of joy appeared.
It is definitely much more comfortable to be able to take business class than economy class.
And...
"I haven't taken business class yet."
Zhang Lina's words resonated with Zhao Hang.
Obviously, he was the first time.
In this way, the group exchanged tickets at the business class window, checked their luggage, and passed the security check. Mr. Xu took out a gold card and was welcomed by the airport welcome car that had been waiting there for a long time. I received a flight waiting room where VIPs were waiting.
No need to mention the environment or something. At 12:10, we will board the plane together.
After Mr. Xu sat down, he looked at Lu Yao's sweaty appearance and asked speechlessly:
"You went to take a shower?"
"..."
Lu Yao ignored him.
But he did feel very hot.
Then…
After the plane took off...
He had a nosebleed.
Looking at his bloody appearance, Xu Ruochen was shocked and quickly asked Wei Qianqian for paper and stuffed his nostrils.
The flight attendant also found something wrong, so he came over and asked Lu Yao if there was anything wrong.
But Lu Yao's face became strange.
He subconsciously sat upright, trying not to look at this beautiful woman with an attractive figure...
The most important thing is that he must sit upright to cover up his embarrassment.
After waving his hand to indicate that he was fine, he was holding two toilet paper balls for no reason.
It’s not because I took three health pills, right?
He subconsciously wanted to ask Xu Ruochen.
But just as I was about to speak, I suddenly paused.
What...why ask?
"Will there be a problem with eating three pills?"
Then the question is, if he asks himself why he eats three pills?
How do you answer yourself?
Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth twitched and he leaned on the seat with a little depressed look.
At this time, the flight attendant, who looked about 30 or so, walked over with a pallet, with a towel and a wet wipe...
Lu Yao sat up straight again.
Yes.
This little... the flight attendant is really charming... Damn!
Is this the Immortal Pill?
It's so powerful?
He was completely speechless.
