I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 110 Bo Hu said (23)

The song Shen Liang was talking about was "Bo Hu Shuo"...

He likes songs with operatic tones very much - the bright moon has no predecessor for ten thousand years, it illuminates the ancient and modern people who are awake; why do you ask, young masters, I have wasted my youth...

I don't know what the song is about, but it feels very catchy!

This song "Bo Hu Shuo" is divided into three parts: the main song, the opera tune, and the storytelling...

No matter which paragraph, they all express the same meaning: I am a carefree person in the world, let them laugh and scold as they please - I am just free and easy.

Mao Buyi also read the lyrics and asked, "Will you sing this opera tune?"

Shen Liang said casually: "The bright moon has no predecessor in ten thousand years, it shines on the only awake people in the past and present; why do you ask, young master, I am wasting my youth~"

"Wow! Who did you learn that from?"

“…I learned drama for a while. You haven’t seen my live broadcast, right? Those who have seen my live broadcast know that there was a period of time when I would sing drama during the live broadcast!”

Ma Hao and Long Danny came over: "What song?"

"...Why don't you give me time to perform three songs, one is "Take You to Find Nightlife", one is "Seaweed Dance", and then a new song..."

"New song? You have a new song again?"

“…The inspiration is stronger!”

Ma Hao took the phone and prepared to listen to the demo while asking, "…Aren't you going to sing "Love You 150 Degrees"?"

Shen Liang couldn't help but get angry: "150 degrees? What do you mean 150 degrees? Mine is 105 degrees, okay!"

"Shh..."

Ma Hao ignored him. She wanted to concentrate on listening to the song. Then, she said to Long Danny, "Boss Long, this song is good!"

“…Can it become popular?”

“I don’t know if it will be popular, but it will definitely be popular!”

Hearing this, Long Danny immediately became interested: "Another song of 'Seaweed Dance'?"

"No... the style is different, Shen Liang, is this Chinese style?"

"This is an ancient style song... also called national style... a relatively niche music form... but it's very popular on the Internet..." Shen Liang didn't want to talk about this, so he asked directly: "Can you sing it live?"

“…I’ll ask QQ Music…”

“…Why ask them?”

“Now you have to cooperate with the platform when releasing songs…”

“I’ll just go on tour…”

“That won’t work either,” Ma Hao said patiently, “You are no longer an ordinary singer. Countless people are paying attention to your every move. If you release a new song, you must inform the platform... At least you must announce the official release date...”

"…All right!"

Shen Liang was convinced...

He just didn't think it through. Many things are complicated and one thing can affect the whole body.

Of course, the so-called involvement can actually be summed up in one sentence: money!
For example, when Deng Ziqi released her new song "Period", none of the mainstream domestic platforms had it online, and only Apple Music had the legitimate audio source...

why?
Because the agency did not reach an agreement with the mainland platform!
From the platform's perspective, the copyright can be purchased at a lower price, and the profit will definitely be greater.

From the company's perspective, it is necessary to weigh the benefits of the platform, the singers and its own interests. The process involved is nothing more than money!
——It’s because the exclusive broadcasting deal failed and each company doesn’t want to split the traffic!

Good songs will definitely not be buried, it’s just a matter of time.

But time is also a problem. Many people don’t have the time to wait!

Shen Liang is an artist of Wajijiwa. The copyright of the songs he created belongs to the company...

This is the industry chain - in the music industry, the copyright of songs is held by creators, producers or agencies.

Responsible for managing and controlling the use, distribution and revenue of songs.

The singer himself does not directly own the copyright of his own songs and needs authorization from the relevant rights holders before he can use and sing the songs.

Of course, Shen Liang is different from ordinary singers. Shen Liang is an original singer. Basically all his songs are created by himself, so the copyright belongs to him!
But you still have to make the final decision on operations and management.

“They said it’s fine to sing new songs on tour, as long as the audio source is online within three days!”

“…That’s good…” Ma Hao nodded, then asked: “Are you sure you want Ma Boqian to sing this rap?” “Xiao Ma, are you okay with that?”

“…Just these few sentences, I’m sure there’s no problem with that!”

"Then go to the lounge and rehearse..."

……

From the beginning, "Tomorrow's Son" was said to be an idol development program targeting the post-95s and post-00s market...

But in fact, talent shows should be aimed at the general public from the very beginning!

Because in any market segment, 80% of the attention remains on the top 20% of the content, and the same is true for music variety shows. The top structure has already been formed, and the barriers for niche music variety shows to enter the top market are very high.

Because there is a discrepancy between the market segmentation and the public aesthetic!
Segmenting the overall style will inevitably fail to impress audiences of all ages.

But then again, if it doesn't seek a differentiated route, it won't be able to find its own position among the many idol development programs, and in the end, it will please no one.

There is another key issue: the pure online promotion and marketing platform is slightly weak.

When it comes to music talent shows, either the content wins, or the platform is strong enough. If a music online variety show loses the mainstream channel of television, the loss of this attention will mean that it is doomed to fail to become a phenomenal program.

But the appearance of Mao Buyi and Shen Liang made "The Next Generation of Idols" not to mention phenomenal, but at least very popular!
The popularity of third- and fourth-tier singers and unknown people has broken the rule that "big stars = ratings".

Then the two of them became popular!

After "Flowers Along the Way" and "Seaweed Dance", Shen Liang's fame is even not inferior to those top stars...

——The simplest example is that Qingyang directly offered 12 million and signed a two-year contract. Dove also sent an invitation...

Of course, the endorsement fee is still a long way from the top ones - currently the most expensive on the market is Lu Han, whose peak period was 8000 million in two years!
……

"I feel that 'Bo Hu Shuo' will definitely top the charts tomorrow... no, tonight!"

“…If you don’t know how to flatter, then don’t say anything!”

After the performance, Shen Liang returned to the lounge and chatted with Ma Boqian. Ma Boqian was very excited. Shen Liang said speechlessly: "How can you be on the charts when you haven't even uploaded the source?"

“…No audio source uploaded? Why?”

“…it’s a process issue…”

As the two were chatting, Ma Hao walked in, his face serious: "Shen Liang, did you say something bad about Wang Congshao during the live broadcast?"

"Who?"

"Young Master Wang Cong!"

"...I don't even know him, what did I say...Oh..." Shen Liang suddenly remembered something: "I said Panda TV is going to close down!"

"Don't you know that Panda TV is owned by Wang Congshao?"

Shen Liang was disdainful: "…What kind of industry is this? It's just a toy. After raising 1 billion in June, there has been no further news of financing…The live streaming platform relies on burning money. If it runs out of money, it will soon go bankrupt…"

Ma Hao was stunned for a moment: "His father is Wang Jianlin, the richest man in China, just invest some money..."

"It won't be like that soon... Lao Wang was defeated in Dama City, and Wanda may not be able to survive. He is the richest man, but he will soon become the first loser!"

“…How did you know that?”

"I watched the news... didn't you?"

Ma Boqian interrupted: "So, he lost all the 500 million?"

"It is estimated that there are still more than 10 billion yuan in arrears..." Shen Liang continued: "So, you are right to refuse your uncle's offer of 500 million yuan!"

Ma Boqian nodded seriously: "I told my dad, even if he gave me 500 million, I wouldn't know what to do with it!"

Oh, Ma Boqian is really a rich second generation. His father Ma Qingyun is a top American designer, and his mansion in the United States is the filming location of "Modern Family"...

Shen Liang nodded: "With the rise of short video platforms, live streaming platforms will definitely fail... Panda TV will definitely go bankrupt. The market is too crowded and cannot accommodate three companies!"

“Yes, I think so too…” Ma Boqian wanted to argue a little, but Ma Hao interrupted them directly: “Who analyzed this with you? Now Wang Congshao’s fans are clamoring online to get rid of you…”

"Hit me? Is he sick?"

“I’m his fan!”

"Tsk..." Shen Liang said disdainfully: "When Hua Chenyu's fans sent me private messages to poison me... I didn't even bother to respond!"
