Crazy Entertainment System
Chapter 72 8 Songs
"Sixty percent?!" Gao Feiyan frowned upon hearing this. In principle, this percentage was not high. The main problem was that Chen Yu didn't pay a single penny; he was essentially getting something for nothing.
“That’s right, 60%, but the intellectual property rights of the derivative products belong to us!” Chen Yu smiled slightly and said softly.
On Earth, the derivative products of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" alone have sold for a billion yuan.
This is a big cake.
Of course, ten or so movies would earn over a billion, but Chen Yu felt it wasn't appropriate to release a movie now.
Upon hearing this, Gao Feiyan's eyes lit up immediately. She realized that the biggest highlight of this work was not the product itself, but the derivative value it generated.
He was just curious: if the other party had seen the derivative value, why did they still give it away so easily?
“Don’t be so curious, because I created this story. So the derivative products belong to me. If I weren’t the one running it, I could get 40% of the money,” Chen Yu said softly.
"I understand. Don't worry, I will definitely handle this business well for you!" Gao Feiyan said confidently.
“I have faith in you. Alright, you’ve got the money, the matter is settled, I should be going. I still need to prepare for the finals and album recording these next couple of days,” Chen Yu said, standing up.
"Ok!"
After separating from Gao Feiyan, Chen Yu began working on his album.
As agreed, the four songs previously recorded, "Fairy Tale," "The Only One," "Glory," and "The Heart of a Dream Chaser," will be included.
Meanwhile, Chen Yu needs to prepare the remaining eight songs.
With eight new songs, Chen Yu feels immense pressure.
After much deliberation, Chen Yu chose a song: "Waiting for You Until My Heart Aches" by the legendary singer God of Songs; "For You" by Zhang Yu; "Admit My Mistake" by Xu Song; "Gardenia Blossoms" by He Jiong; "Blue Lotus" by Xu Wei; "Hair Like Snow"; "See You Again" by American rapper Wiz Khalifa and singer Charlie Puth; and "If You" by Korean band Big Bang—a total of four songs. These four songs cost Chen Yu 60 of his fan points.
This proves just how awesome these songs are.
"Waiting for You Until My Heart Aches" goes without saying; it's the title track from the album of a universally acknowledged genius like Zhang Xueyou.
It won the Hong Kong Top Ten Gold Songs Award in 1993.
Chen Yu chose the Cantonese version of this song, instead of Eric Moo's Mandarin version.
Chen Yu mainly hopes that his songs can encompass more, as Cantonese is also a significant market.
Chen Yu believes that this song encompasses so many genres, including Cantonese, youth, inspiration, Chinese style, rap, and Korean elements.
If this album doesn't sell well, Chen Yu will seriously question whether there's something wrong with the world's musical taste.
Many people born in the 80s will be familiar with the song "To You," one of Zhang Yu's representative works.
This is a song that you can say appears at weddings all over the country.
This song would be perfect for a wedding.
Especially when the emcee is giving blessings, singing a song for you is definitely a plus.
Every other song is absolutely amazing.
Chen Yu was eagerly anticipating whether these songs would ignite the entire music festival.
Just as Chen Yu was daydreaming, Wang Yali called.
"What are you doing?!" It was still so direct. Chen Yu had gotten used to it. The initial small talk was gone, which meant that the two of them had become more familiar with each other, instead of just having a budding romance.
Chen Yu enjoyed this treatment.
"I'm preparing for the album. You've finished your exams, right?" Chen Yu said softly, lying on the bed.
"The exams are over, and Mengmeng and the others can't wait any longer. We applied to the school for a dance studio for them to rehearse. After all, the school is very supportive of the CCTV Young Singers Competition finals. They're all waiting for you. When are you coming?" Wang Yali said with a gentle smile.
She was surrounded by Mengmeng and the others, their eyes full of expectation.
They were incredibly excited when they received the first song Chen Yu wrote for them, "Chinese Language".
All they do all day is memorize lyrics and practice, without ever reviewing properly.
"Really? It's not like the initial enthusiasm will fade away quickly, is it?" Chen Yu laughed, knowing that the three women were probably gathered together eavesdropping on Wang Yali's phone call.
"Who said that? We're very serious!" Mengmeng retorted, clearly displeased when Chen Yu questioned their enthusiasm.
Jiang Meixue and Li Jialing covered their foreheads, giving each other a look that said, "I don't recognize her."
Doesn't this mean they're eavesdropping on Wang Yali's phone call?
"Mengmeng, eavesdropping on phone calls is not a good habit," Chen Yu joked.
"Mind your own business~" Mengmeng pouted, being quite willful, but her slightly embarrassed expression made the other girls on the scene burst into laughter.
"I can't control you~" Chen Yu laughed.
"Come here. They still need you to know. You know that Meixue and Mengmeng are very good at singing and interpreting songs," Wang Yali said with a light laugh.
She knew Mengmeng's personality all too well.
"Okay, where are you?"
Twenty minutes later, Chen Yu brought soda water to the dance studio.
"Why is it in this dance studio instead of a professional vocal studio?!" Chen Yu asked curiously.
Logically speaking, they are not performing dance, but singing, so vocal music is the main focus. What is the purpose of this dance studio?
"We want them too, but we can't get them; they've all been taken by our seniors."
"The dance costumes were already the best we could do, and we only managed to borrow them by using your name." Wang Yali took the water from Chen Yu and distributed it to the sisters, saying softly.
"Isn't this considered swindling? Using my name, you've got some nerve!" Chen Yu joked with a laugh.
"How can you talk like that? Is it going to kill me to use your name? Besides, you can also rehearse your final song here. And although this is a dance studio, we have all the necessary equipment, including speakers and microphones." Wang Yali gave Chen Yu a charming glare and said reproachfully.
"Okay, I was wrong." Faced with the aggressive Wang Yali, Chen Yu lost his temper. He was still racking his brains trying to figure out how to persuade Wang Yali to live with him off-campus!
That would increase the chances of success.
So now I have to play the subservient role.
"That's more like it. By the way, did you really assign them numbers for the dances?" Wang Yali asked. This topic was clearly of interest to Mengmeng and the others as well, and they immediately gathered around curiously, their eyes fixed on Chen Yu, eagerly awaiting his answer.
Chen Yu looked at the girls, nodded, and said, "The dance has been choreographed, but it's not for this song; it's for another song."
