Huayu 1995

Chapter 210 You are... the Vice Principal!

Royalties only apply to records.

It is a form of revenue generated during the record release process, which is shared among the record company, the singer, and possibly the songwriter and producer.

Although Su Chao has no copyright requirements for the songs he has worked on, he can still earn money if the singer remakes, adapts, performs, or sells the songs as theme songs for movies or TV shows.

For example, the song "Hard to Recite Sutras" was used as the theme song for "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils".

This song is sung by Emil Chau.

The record company that recorded this song, Emil Chau, and the creator Su Chao all received a sum of money.

Su Chao gave the song to Jacky Cheung, promising that as long as Jacky Cheung sang the song at his concerts for decades to come, Su Chao would receive a share of the profits every time.

Imagine a man in his sixties or seventies holding a concert to make money for him.

He, as the copyright owner, even receives money from subsequent revenue generated by KTV, advertising, and ringback tones.

Therefore, there is no possibility of a buyout.

Kelly Chen and Jacky Cheung had no objection to the price.

Kelly Chen even felt she had hit the jackpot.

The songs sold to the superstar were priced the same as those sold to her. What does this signify?
This shows that in Su Chao's eyes, she was on the same level as superstars.

"If you need someone to appear in your music video, I can help you for free."

Kelly Chen's career is actually doing quite well, and she no longer needs to film music videos for Jacky Cheung like she did when she first debuted last year.

But at this moment, she is willing to serve Su Chao.

how to say.

This is probably where Su Chao's brilliance lies, even if this brilliance may not be something he deliberately displays.

He only presents good songs.

If it were any other creator, they would be extremely cautious and would try to get the agent to maximize their profits in terms of pricing.

But Su Chao really just threw it away casually.

It's as if these great songs pose absolutely no challenge for him; he could whip up three or five songs in the time it takes to take a dump.

Uh……

Actually, her guess was pretty much right.

Since it came too easily, Su Chao naturally couldn't cherish it much.

"Thank you, I'll contact you if I need anything."

Su Chao has no shortage of people to act in his music videos.

His new album's music video hasn't actually been released yet; it will be released together with the CD in November.

Many albums now follow this process.

First, send the cassette tapes, then the CDs.

We decide whether to shoot a music video, and which one, based on market feedback.

The time gap of about a month between the two events didn't have a significant impact.

"If you need any help, you can ask me."

Jacky Cheung has a good impression of Su Chao.

Although he didn't cry out loud like Lin Xi when Su Chao gave him this song, his eyes still welled up with tears.

"Definitely, definitely. Let's keep in touch."

Knowing that Jacky Cheung was so easy to talk to, Su Chao promised at the autograph session that he would get Jacky Cheung's autograph for his fans.

He had previously worried that Jacky Cheung would tell him to "eat shit."

"I heard you're making a movie, do you need a cameo role?"

Jacky Cheung thought about it and felt that he could also contribute. Why could Andy Lau do it, but he couldn't?

Who the hell isn't a superstar?

"Thank you so much!"

Holy crap, why not take advantage of this freebie?

"I...can do it too!"

Kelly Chen quickly stated that although she was not as important as the Heavenly King, she could not lose in attitude.

"Haha, if you need anything, I certainly won't be polite. I'm a sentimental person and I like to drink tea with old friends."

Su Chao has essentially made a guarantee.

I will try my best to support my old friends when I release new songs.

Don't underestimate him just because he's a singer who's only released one album; his influence in the entertainment industry has already surpassed that of many big names.

Some say that Miyuki Nakajima supports half of the Hong Kong and Taiwan music scene.

It's okay, the other half belongs to Su Chao now.

However, to the public, he is still relatively unknown.

Su Chao returned to Beijing the next day.

Andy Lau personally saw him off, and Su Chao asked him to sign his name on the album.

Andy Lau is actually already very busy.

He has recently started holding concerts, and will also be joining the filming of "New Shanghai Bund" in November.

When Su Chao got off the plane, he received a message that the random shop would be refreshed in October.

He finally understood what it meant to ask for a hammer and get a hammer.

This month's random shop refresh is on the second floor of Kobayashi Musical Instrument Store.

Su Chao really wanted to slap himself.

I'll teach you to be so foul-mouthed.

Provoking the system, will this really result in Thor's bedroom being refreshed?
Mist grass!

He resisted the urge to slap himself, not wanting to attract attention and be recognized as the up-and-coming singer Su Chao.

After the random shop refresh address appeared, what was inside was no longer a secret to Su Chao. An experience point blind box.

A song—or more accurately, a piece of instrumental music—"Memories of the Forbidden City"!
Two acting attribute points.

It's all amazing stuff!
This left Su Chao with absolutely no intention of giving up.

The attribute points that he could never afford normally only cost 40,000 yuan.

However, the most expensive item this time wasn't the attribute points; the most expensive was the instrumental piece "Memories of the Forbidden City," which cost a whopping 120,000.

This is still the discounted price.

I've recently spent a lot of money on the system, meaning a significant portion of that money has been converted into "charitable donations" waiting to be used.

Su Chao wondered if he could establish a charitable foundation.

In addition to charitable work, this charitable foundation can also make investments.

The Internet age is coming.

Later generations of internet pioneers also began to emerge.

If this charitable foundation could invest in them, Su Chao would be ecstatic.

Although the money earned from this investment is still considered "charitable donation" and Su Chao cannot use it, if he can roll the fund into several hundred billion, he can donate billions of yuan in dividends every year, which would make his charitable legacy incredibly impressive.

Moreover, if his fund directly invests 200 million yuan in the same new project, the probability of the project's success will increase infinitely.

At this point, he would then invest his own money.

There is almost no chance of losing.

Of course, whether it can be done or not depends on the system's decision at that time.

System Master, please be my sugar daddy!
When Su Chao returned to the courtyard, he distributed the things he had brought for the trainees.

"Go buy it yourselves if you have the chance. We'll be filming in Hong Kong around the end of the year, and if the conditions are right, we'll let you make cameo appearances."

As soon as Su Chao finished speaking, he was immediately greeted with cheers from the trainees.

These trainees had been to Hong Kong before, but this time they were going to Hong Kong to film a movie, so the significance was naturally different.

Some of them I've never even been to.

I never expected that signing up for a training course would have such benefits.

The tuition fee of three thousand yuan suddenly felt incredibly worthwhile.

"Don't get too excited yet. Not everyone can go to Hong Kong to film this time," Su Chao thought for a moment and added, "And there won't be much pay for you. At most, we'll provide food and lodging so you can have a few days of fun in Hong Kong."

If you calculate the cost, bringing people from the mainland isn't that much more expensive.

The main expenses are food, accommodation, and airfare.

However, one day in the future, if everyone takes a closer look at "My Sassy Girl," they will find that it's full of awesome cameos.

There might even be posts specifically listing how many stars appeared in this movie.

"Didn't Teacher Lin come?"

Su Chao put the empty suitcase into the inner compartment.

This room was originally where Lü Bu and others lived, but later they moved to the next courtyard, and Su Chao moved in.

It's used for sleeping inside and for simple office work outside.

"This morning was Mr. Wang Jinsong's class, this afternoon was Mr. He Bing's class, and this evening was a general education class... Mr. Lin hasn't come these past two days."

Guo Xiaofeng reported the facts truthfully.

“She doesn’t even want to come to class when I’m not here.”

Su Chao sighed.

"..."

Guo Xiaofeng was speechless, shocked by Su Chao's shameless words.

Putting aside everything else, Chao Ge's shamelessness alone is something everyone should learn for ten years.

"Tell me, what's the matter with you?"

Su Chao went back to his room, and he followed him the whole time. It's definitely not because the two of them were having an affair.

"I want to formally change positions."

Guo Xiaofeng was much more determined this time.

"Aren't you even planning to maintain the status quo?"

Su Chao rubbed his face, feeling somewhat helpless. How could a butterfly flap its wings and wipe out a third-tier celebrity?

Moreover, Guo Xiaofeng does have some acting skills.

Now, Guo Xiaofeng manages training classes while also taking on minor roles and extras, but it hasn't actually interfered with anything.

"After the second phase of the class ends, I plan to start another English training class. English training is very popular right now. What do you think, Brother Chao? We have the venue ready, and it's not difficult to find teachers. There are quite a few students from Beijing Normal University who are willing to come and work part-time."

Guo Xiaofeng never expected to leave Dream Home and go it alone.

He saw it too.

Su Chao was dedicated to the training courses, but he never elevated them to the level of building a career.

It's just a little gadget.

They might not even be as big as advertising companies.

We must take a long-term view.

In the future, more and more industries will surely emerge, and Guo Xiaofeng is one of the most senior members. Based on his merit in supporting the new leader, he will not be treated unfairly in the future.

Ancestors were law-abiding citizens, but their descendants are penniless.

He wouldn't get off the boat even if you killed him.

"Alright, we'll do it your way. Whether it's academic classes or English classes, the training program will be your responsibility from now on. You'll be... the vice principal!"

We definitely can't let the principal's position slip away.

Su Chao maintained the training program so that he could become the principal.
