Unemployment at the beginning, I let the big devil of the music world return

Chapter 755 Visiting
The car stopped.

When assistant Xiao Xia saw this, she walked over quickly.

Li Qingning opened the door, and a pair of long legs in jeans and white sneakers got out first, which made Xiaoxia slow down immediately. Her friend Xiaobai used to be a fan of Jiang Yang, but later he changed his mind, but he still killed Jiang dogs when he opened his mouth, which has become a habit.

Xiao Xia used to think that she was just being stubborn.

Now Xiao Xia feels that there is some truth in Jiang Yang's jealousy.

These long legs——

Sometimes when Xiao Xia follows Li Yu, she always wants to reach out and touch him.

She walked over to Li Qingning.

Li Qingning opened the back door, took out two handbags and handed them to Xiao Xia: "Xiao Xia, please give them to Sister Qian for me and take them to the dry cleaners for cleaning."

Sister Qian is an elder person around Li Qingning.

Like Sister Chen, she was with Li Qingning when he first debuted, serving as his life assistant. Last year, she became pregnant, and because she was an older mother, Li Qingning chose to let her take paid pregnancy care, which gave Xiaoxia the opportunity to join the company.

When Xiao Xia first started working, it was thanks to Sister Qian's remote guidance.

Sister Qian has just returned from maternity leave.

"it is good."

Xiao Xia took the bag and took a look. There were two men's coats inside.
You can tell at first glance that he belongs to an old thief.

She told Li Qingning: "Boss, Feng Jing, the music director of Time.com, arrived early in the morning."

Li Qingning: "Sister Feng?"

Feng Jing was one of the planners of the original micro-variety show "Life Singer".

at the same time--

It was also Feng Jing who led Time Short Video to invest in her "Time Concert", which became the most profitable podcast at present.

I just don't know what she came here for today.

Li Qingning went upstairs with doubts, entered the company, put her bag in the office, and was about to go to the reception room to meet Sister Feng when her cell phone rang. Li Qingning took out her cell phone and saw that it was a call from her mother-in-law.

"Hey, Mom."

Li Qingning stopped and answered the phone.

Jiang's mother: "Ningning, you transferred money to your sister's card again. Too much. Too much."

Li Qingning: "It's almost the Spring Festival, Jiang Yang and I can't go home for the New Year——"

During the National Day, Li Qingning and Jiang Yang discussed letting his sister and her family take his parents to the south for a winter vacation. However, the old lady was reluctant to leave her teammates in the Intelligence Department and Chess Room and didn't want to go.

of course.

Also, because Li Qingning was busy with the Spring Festival Gala and couldn't go back, the old lady felt that if Li Qingning was not there, their meeting with her parents would not be formal enough, so she planned to wait until she was over the Spring Festival before paying a formal visit to her parents.

"—You and my dad take care of yourselves—"

Li Qingning was speaking when there was a knock on the door.

Li Qingning raised his head: "Come in."

Sister Chen pushed the door open and brought Feng Jing in.

After entering the door, Feng Jing greeted: "Xiao Ning, you have to help me this time..."

When she saw Li Qingning making a phone call, she stopped talking midway.

Li Qingning didn't expect Feng Jing to be so anxious.

She held out her hand for them to sit down.

Jiang's mother heard it on the other end of the phone, "We have guests, you go ahead and do your work--"

Li Qingning: "It's okay, a friend of mine is coming over."

Jiang's mother: "I still have to go to the cemetery to find your father."

Li Qingning:......

Li Qingning: "Did you and my dad have another fight?"

Jiang's mother: "You think my cooking is too salty."

Jiang's mother didn't say much. After giving a few instructions, she hung up the phone.

"My mother-in-law."

Li Qingning put down the phone and smiled apologetically at Feng Jing: "Sister Feng, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

"It's okay, it's okay."

Feng Jing waved her hands quickly.

She just couldn't help but sigh that the old lady was so lucky to have married such a good daughter-in-law. She had hundreds of millions of businesses that she was eager to give to Li Qingning, but she had to queue behind the old lady and listen to the stories of the old couple quarreling and bickering.

She was a little jealous.

If she had this kind of relationship, Li Yu would probably be able to solve any work troubles with just a wave of her hand.

Yes.

Feng Jing is in trouble.

To be precise, their overseas short video application TIME ran into trouble.

As a short video, music is one of the most important ecosystems in short videos.

This music is not used in vain.

Generally speaking, short video platforms need to pay a certain amount of copyright licensing fees to the copyright owner, reach an authorization agreement, and use the copyright owner's music on the platform within a certain period of time.

Now things have changed.

With the rapid development of short videos, copyright holders, led by the three major record companies, are no longer satisfied with buyouts.

They want a share.

Li Qingning had heard something about this matter.

She felt that this request was not unreasonable, it was too reasonable!
Li Qingning also wanted to earn more.

Her husband is so capable now.

As the first game studio in China to produce a 3A masterpiece, albeit one with mixed reviews, she would have to spend a lot of money to get a small stake in Seal Game Studio.

Far away.

The copyright owner's request is reasonable.

Short video platforms also have their own considerations.

Short videos are now just a tool for music discovery and marketing promotion, not a consumption platform. That is, consumers see music in short videos and think the song is good, but they ultimately pay for it on the music streaming platform. The money never goes into the pocket of the short video. Short videos are like wedding dresses for others, and now they are also asked to share the profits. The platform feels very aggrieved.

of course.

Faced with this situation, TIME was not unprepared.

In fact, they launched their own streaming music platform as early as last year.

TIME music.

No matter what.

Due to reasons such as music copyright, TIME Music only has traffic but no outstanding content, so naturally very few users can stay.

Feng Jing also had his eyes on Li Yu at that time.

Li Yu’s several English songs last year may not have dominated the overseas music charts, but they should not be underestimated and they successfully made their presence felt.

Under this wave of popularity, her digital album "Mr. Anonymous" set a record for the highest overseas sales of Chinese albums, and the title song "Mr. Anonymous" even topped the HOT music charts for a time.

This is somewhat controversial.

Many people think that the reason why "Mr. Anonymous" topped the list is that Jiang Yang has many mother fans overseas.

But whatever.

Li Yu still has a lot of appeal now.

It can be said that this is the big name that Time.com has the best chance of inviting.

No matter what.

Li Yu's overseas copyright has long been authorized to one of the three major music companies for the global distribution rights of his music library and future new releases, and the rights will not expire until next year.

This is also the reason why Li Qingning said it was reasonable.

She can get more money.

just now.

The only way for Time.com to resolve the dilemma is to negotiate with the three major record companies while enriching TIME's music copyright.

then--

Feng Jing set her sights on Li Qingning again.

Li Qingning didn't understand.

Her copyright license hasn't expired yet.

Even if she wanted to help, it would be too late to quench her thirst.

Sister Chen spoke up: "Sister Jing is referring to the copyright of the Beatles."

this--

Koi Studio only authorized Li Yu's music library and Li Yu's unreleased works to the three major music companies. But from the day the Beatles were born, apart from using Li Qingning's voice, they had nothing to do with Li Yu.

even--

After the collaboration between Koi Studio and Kyoto University AI Laboratory, all of Li Yu's materials were opened to the laboratory, and Rock Girl Studio was jointly established, the sound has now become AI's.

Don't tell me yet.

Li Qingning felt that this was indeed a path that she had never imagined, but which was feasible.

and--

Although "Girls" has been delayed many times since the release of the "Let It Be" MV and is still in production, Li Qingning has already completed the music production. Not counting the opening and ending songs, there are a total of five songs, all by the Beatles, which means there are ready-made musical works.

The only problem might be the price.
