Chapter 8 Asking for Price

The phone rang, and Wang Yi, who had just connected to the Internet, directly moved his finger across the screen.

"The network is open, thank you."

But as soon as Wang Yi finished speaking, there was a question from the other side.

"Is this Teacher Wang Yi?"

This inquiry also let Wang Yi know that he had made an mistake. However, he had just come back and his mobile phone had only been renewed for a day. There should not be many people who would call him.

Would you call yourself a teacher? In music? But the copyrights of my songs are simply recorded on the computer, and there are no finished products that can be listened to.

"Which one?"

"Hello, Mr. Wang Yi, I am the person in charge of Vida Music in Xiangjiang, Vida Li. I happened to notice that Mr. Wang Yi registered the copyright of two new music works yesterday, so I took the liberty to ask."

Sure enough, it was music. Wang Yiyou paid attention to the songs he had sold in the past. The results and popularity were good.

However, the price of writing lyrics and composing music is indeed not high, so it’s not a pity at all.

Moreover, there are many people who are more popular than me. It is unrealistic for people to stare at me just by relying on those few "children's songs".

Although the other party spoke politely and said he was the person in charge of some company from Xiangjiang, he had never heard of that company. A person in charge was so leisurely paying attention to the two copyrights he had registered, and came over to inquire in a hurry the next day?

I just uploaded lyrics and music plus a pure computer-synthesized sound, and my fame has not reached this level yet...

After quickly thinking through some issues, Wang Yi directly labeled Li Weida as a second-rate copyright dealer.

Only this kind of guy would always pay attention to the newly added works to the copyright database.

This world protects all kinds of copyright very well, and the copyright registration fee is not high, it is 300 yuan for a single song, and 100 yuan for a subsequent song in the same series.

Therefore, a large number of professional or non-professional musicians complete some registrations every day, some of which may be just a melody and accompaniment.

Many second-rate dealers like to target this place to buy goods.

Even if writing lyrics and composing music becomes popular, it will not have much impact. At this time, it is far less influential than a singer. Naturally, Wang Yi did not change his account when uploading. He still used the abbreviation of "Yi". After all, he originally wanted to use his previous influence and channels.

.

You can also check your personal information in the background of the website, but this doesn't matter, it's not a shady matter, Wang Yihui uses the abbreviation simply to reduce some trouble and harassment that he may suffer.

People who have the energy and channels to know their own information from the backend will know it. No one will be so bored as to spread their privacy everywhere. This will lead to lawsuits.

Therefore, the other party can know that I am a well-known musician, and most of the time I contact you in such a hurry, I am trying to catch someone I missed. However, if I can know my name and phone number, the other party still has some skills.

Is the cost of music copyright expensive? It can be very high. The second license for the copyright of all Jay Chou's songs can cost tens of millions per year, and the three-year exclusive copyright can reach 570 million, but this is completely a special case.

Even if Wang Yi already has a few songs with good reputations, they are still rated one hundred thousand.

He chose music just because he was familiar with the music and settled the money quickly enough.

I never considered the sky-high royalties.

In addition to being good-looking, a song must also suit the singer and must be promoted. Many bar singers and street singers often have outstanding music, but they are unknown.

Various talent shows can help promote, but they can also obtain the copyright of songs created and used by singers during the competition. From this point, we can know the disadvantages of freelance musicians themselves. Brokers and publishers with resources will always need

Take the bulk.

The sky-high price of copyright is the value after operation, not the value at the time of creation.

It feels like opening a blind box, everything is unknown before it has been tested by the market.

Even if Wang Yi comes out with good products that have been tested, whether he can continue to be brilliant actually depends on a certain amount of luck. Many good songs were discovered only after a long time, so if someone is willing to directly send money

, he doesn’t mind a buyout.

Songs were just a means for him to collect initial funds.

"Teacher Wang Yi hasn't published a work in three years, but because of the teacher's previous reputation, our company is willing to pay 50,000 yuan to buy out your copyright."

When Wang Yi heard the offer, he didn't think anything of it. He even felt that the other party was actually quite sincere.

Because even some great musicians can produce ordinary works. When the other party is willing to ask for 50,000 when they have only passed the copyright certification and have not even made a serious recording, it is considered more sincere.

It seems that the previous judgment was a bit wrong. It may not be an ordinary second-rate dealer, but a relatively strong one.

"Two songs are no worse than "Gu Yong", one song costs 200,000 yuan. If you agree, I will give priority to you in the future."

Wang Yi didn't have any hypocritical politeness with the other party. He only made music to make money, or to make money quickly. He didn't really want to go deep into this industry, so everyone just did it neatly to save time.

After hearing Wang Yi's quotation, there was silence for a moment, and then he said

"Then where is the teacher now? Let's have an interview?"

Being willing to come from Xiangjiang already represents your sincerity.

It was the other party who took the initiative and was sincere, so naturally Wang Yi wouldn't care.

"I'm in the store now."

"Shutian, is Mr. Wang Yi making music for some crew? I also know some people in the film and television industry, I can..."

"No, I do scientific research."

"..."

Okay, the conversation was dead. The other party probably hung up the phone after confirming the itinerary.

Since the other party came here directly, there is a high probability that the deal can be negotiated. The other party came here just because he was not worried about the quality of the music and was determined to make a deal.

There is no need to worry about the quality of finished songs that have been proven by the market.

With these two songs, Wang Yi can consider the next issue of renting a warehouse and purchasing a server. He had confirmed before that there were many vacant rooms on the top floor of the building where he lived because there was no elevator.

It is enough to be a computer room.

After all, the starting capital is limited, so it is too early to buy your own land directly. And as the landlord, Uncle Li, is a nice person, renting here can save you a lot of trouble.

As for the issue of rent and cost-effectiveness, because it is a top floor without an elevator, the price itself is not high, and there is an industrial park and a large number of electronics factories near the vertical store. It is common practice to enter the factory if the vertical float fails. I really want one in the future.

It's not bad to be near the site or something.

Wang Yi, who was originally planning to read a few articles of interest, then left the room and headed to Li Bo's Duck Blood Vermicelli Shop.

Just in time to eat another bowl of duck blood vermicelli to cushion my stomach. The steamed buns from before were digested too quickly...

…

"You want to rent three additional rooms?"

Uncle Li, who was handling the ingredients in the kitchen, couldn't help but pause slightly, then frowned and said to Wang Yi

"What are you renting for? Young people, there are some things you can't get involved in. After you have suffered a loss, you have to take the right path. You can't take shortcuts."

As a landlord, Li Bo is very sensitive to this kind of sudden rent increase. It is common for rental houses to be used as a den for gambling, gambling and drug fraud.

When Wang Yi, a young man, suddenly comes to do this, it is easy to doubt the origin of the money.

"Don't worry, Uncle Li. I know the importance. I just need to put in a few computers."

"Oh, I see, it's that kind of mining, right?"

Uncle Li had an expression that said, "I understand." His thinking is quite forward-thinking, or he may have met such tenants before.

The virtual currency craze in this era has just begun. The central bank’s 12.5 notice has not yet been issued. A single Ancestor Coin has exceeded $1,000. Professional mining machines such as ASICs have begun to appear. The carnival of the main culprits and profiteers who are responsible for the increase in graphics card prices has been blown away.

The prelude sounded.

"That's not true. Don't worry, Uncle Li. My money comes from selling songs. It's still the money I earned before."

Wang Yi, who knew Li Bo's character and was well prepared, took out the running water and showed Li Bo the time when he entered the account, and Li Bo believed him immediately.

As for virtual currency, although Wang Yi knew that if similar inertia was followed, virtual currency could increase dozens of times when it reached its peak, but he did not pay much attention to it. With the emergence of national-level boycotts, the previous crazy rise

The trend will be frustrated, and the subsequent surge will be because international capital has begun to come in to cut leeks and launder money.

A zero-sum game with no foundation, coupled with a platform that can cut off power at any time, is just a drumbeating game controlled by others. The collection of payments may also involve money laundering, which Wang Yi has no interest in.

This is a parallel world, and it is very normal to be hit directly by the boycott until it collapses.

"I didn't expect you to be able to write songs. The young man is very talented. It just so happens that two rooms on the top floor are rented out to a small band. Maybe you can still have a common language..."

After seeing the information displayed by Wang Yi, Li Bo's expression was also happy. At the same time, he put down his original worries and started looking for the keys with a smile.

After completing the rental, Wang Yi contacted China Telecom to prepare for fiber optic installation. At the same time, he also went online to search for a server to prepare.

Hanwei is based on Intel's E5-4600 series processor 4-way blade server BH640 V2, which is very cost-effective and easy to expand and combine.

Once you have selected the goods, you are waiting for the music copyright dealer to come to your door and give you money.

Then Wang Yi casually checked the status of his submissions.

Good guy, it’s so efficient. The results were available in less than 12 hours.

Reject, reject the manuscript.

After checking the response time, it probably happened not long after I started working there, so this is considered an instant rejection...

The first update, Zhang said it cannot be displayed yet but it can be seen. China Mobile has completed the transfer but the real name has not been synchronized to the signing platform so quickly. Ahem...
