Chapter 1803 What a beautiful thought

But if it's about personal matters, it's hard to talk about it this month. After all, if Li Changjiang talks about personal matters, Ye Ming will be embarrassed if he doesn't do what is common there.

But it would be even less interesting if you don’t say it. What are they coming for? There is no problem in taking up space for some official matters, but it is also for some personal matters of your own.

You know that in such a situation, there are indeed some problems. It is difficult for him to say it himself. It is a private matter.

Li Changjiang pondered for a moment, and then said: "Ye Ming, in fact, there are quite a few older generation artists like me in our country, and some of their songs are also relatively popular, or were once popular. Very popular. What do you think of it now? It can be considered a classic song.

This thing should not be slow to respond, just like some of my songs, although they seem to have some historical background and so on, you can't deny that they were once very popular. "

Ye Ming nodded very firmly and said: "Of course, Teacher Li, your little bamboo raft in the middle of the river, and dare to ask where the way is? And. Jasmine. A big river has wide waves. Wait, where are these songs? They are all classics, even the classics of that era, but they still sound fascinating today. No one can deny this. Art has no time limit. Even I often listen to these songs and absorb some from them. Nutrition."

Ye Ming doesn't have this point. What does flattering mean? This is real.

Although Lao Li is somewhat unsatisfactory in educating children, you can't deny his art and the songs that made him successful are classics inherited from that era. Even if it seems now, it makes people feel that blood boiling. At certain times, it sounds really eye-catching.

Classics are the kind of classics that can transcend national boundaries, time and race.

At this time, Li Changjiang's eyes lit up, and he felt like he had found a confidant! Sometimes what makes Lao Li feel very embarrassed is that today's young people don't like their songs at all. Those songs seem to them to be very classic songs, but today's young people don't like them at all. Young people like Ye Ming’s popular songs.

In comparison, although these older generation artists carry the name of artists, they really don't make much money. Basically, these older artists will not be invited to those evening parties.

Unless it is an official party, under normal circumstances, no one will invite these old artists because the price/performance ratio is not enough.

You said that these old artists need to be famous, have skills, and have singing ability. Anyway, they are basically very good in all aspects. But they are not very famous, they don’t have such a big market, and no one likes their songs, at least not today’s young people.

But now young people are the main consumers. Therefore, some stores and the like mainly play the young people's card. If you ask these old artists to come, how much should you give them?

Where is people's reputation? If you give them less money, they won't come. If you give them too much money, you will feel disadvantaged. You know, these old people are not very good when they come out to sing and so on. Their ability to make money is basically relatively narrow.

Of course, these old artists are paid by the state, so there is no problem in their lives, but today's singers earn tens of millions.

It is absolutely impossible for these old artists to say that they are not jealous at all. For example, in the current cross talk industry, the most profitable person is Lao Guo.

Why can Guo Degang's cross talk make money? This will never be tolerated. It is because you have made money yourself, but no one else has made money. This is why the entire cross talk world seems to be embarrassed.

In the past, the entire industry did not make any money, and cross talk actors did not make any money. If the eldest brother did not criticize the second brother, no one should laugh at anyone else. We all lived a hard life together. In this case, there was no comparison.

But now, except for the outlier like Lao Guo, Lao Guo has made money. He brought cross talk into small teahouses and brought back the lost audience of cross talk. It is no problem to get hundreds of thousands for a commercial performance.

You said that everyone lived a hard life in the past, but now suddenly an outlier like Guo Degang appeared. If no one else makes money, you make money. Naturally, there are many jealous people.

Therefore, some so-called official artists within the system say that Lao Guo's cross talk is vulgar and so on. In any case, they are belittling this guy. But Lao Guo is also an impatient person. I really made a mistake and you said I have nothing to say, but if you want to step on me, then this is impossible.

That’s why later I wanted to go to the Spring Festival Gala, I wanted to rebel against the three customs, Bai Shi Hui, etc. These cross talk works that still seem to be the peak of Lao Guo, of course, later I want to time travel and so on, which can be regarded as classics.

This guy has a habit of those within the system, that is, if you make money and I don’t, he must be jealous.

Those singers can make more money than Lao Guo. If Lao Guo holds a cross talk show, he still has to write new jokes. But when singers hold concerts, they basically perform their previous works.

This is where singers save trouble.

Generally speaking, as long as a singer has one popular song or one classic song, there will be no problem in spending his whole life on such a problem.

If there are three or five classics, then this singer must be in the top tier, and even if he is lucky, it is not impossible to be in the top tier.

This is the current situation of singers in the Chinese entertainment industry. Anyway, there are almost no singers who do not make money. And it’s not just a little bit of money.

Those who earn $180,000 per commercial performance are considered second- and third-tier singers. Think about those old artists, how much does a commercial performance cost? Anyway, they are marketable but priceless.

This is where the old artist is embarrassed. To be honest, Li Changjiang's financial pressure is higher than that of ordinary old artists. After all, he has a student wife to support and a young son. This wife loves her son more than ordinary wives.

Therefore, in such a situation, he just has to find a way to make money and make more money.

Although it is said that Li Changjiang is not short of living expenses, it is even said that his life is much better than that of ordinary people. But in a situation like this, if he wants his son and wife to live a better life, then there must be some extra ways to make money for such a problem.

As one of the representatives of old artists within the system, if he has done a lot of commercial performances at this time, it would be an appropriate improvement.

In fact, it is indeed rare for commercial performances to find him.

Therefore, how to make money on such a problem without losing face is something he needs to face.

In the past, there was some income from tapes and records. After all, there are publishing houses that publish some period songs and so on, and his songs are basically unavoidable. But now piracy is rampant, and by this time it has basically completely destroyed the genuine records.

And in such a situation, the emergence of MP3 was more serious than piracy, directly killing the record industry. To be honest, the emergence of MP3 did directly bring the record market to a dead end.

No one dares to deny this. No one can deny the first question. And in this case, at this time, the lives of those old artists who were counting on these records to provide a little extra money to support their families were also affected.

Old artists like them are not like those pop singers who can't make records. As long as they have a classic song close to them, they can make a lot of money by cheating.

And Ye Ming is selling those songs online and letting people pay to download them. This is a new way.

Li Changjiang was sent as the representative this time.

He saw that Ye Ming had no prejudice against old artists, at least now it seemed that he had no special prejudice against old artists.

There was something very important recently, so he thought for a while before saying: "I am here this time, actually because of us old guys, as for them, it is not necessarily said that everyone has such favorable conditions, and there is such a need to open up Some new ways.

My and his works also need more recognition from people, and even more recognition from young people. However, under normal circumstances, it is unrealistic for us to find photos. It is too difficult to reflect records. Those pop singers may not say Everyone can release records and let us old artists discover records. Basically no record company is willing to do this. We also decided to be really innovative and put some of our songs online.

After all, young people are online more now. Maybe if I can put the songs online for chatting and downloading together, they will like our songs more.

If you download it for free, it obviously doesn't respect our labor. As a singer, you also know that you have worked hard to create the song. If no one takes it away directly with your permission, it is piracy.

And we think that your paid download should be a good choice, so we think that we should build a website with this kind of paid option so that everyone can listen to those old songs. This can be regarded as ours. The old guy’s wish!

At this time, I hope you can support us and technically support these old guys, so that we can build this website. "

After hearing this, Ye Ming said curiously: "This matter is completely unnecessary. We also do this kind of thing on the Internet. Some singers put their photos on the website for a fee and download them. We should be doing a good job in this regard." , it is because of this that Jackson lives such a carefree life. And now he can say whether he can ask for rain and get rain?

That might be a bit excessive, but basically, if you don't have to be controlled by others and can still maintain yourself and live above your own level, that's pretty good.

If big singers like Jackson do this, you old artists should be fine too.

And I think if you do this on the Internet, it should be a precedent, and everyone should welcome it. Go to my website, I will promote it for you, it should be popular, why do you need to build a website yourself? Woolen cloth? "

Li Changjiang said with a smile: "This matter is not as simple as you think. As for us, some people are unwilling to go. As for your website, after all, it is controlled by others.

Is it because those of us who are older and are willing to do what we like to do, but don’t want to talk about those strict restrictions, you said that it will be troublesome to sign a contract with you when the time comes.

Sounds like some old guy out there wants to make his own site like this. But it is technically inappropriate and some people feel that they should be able to get support if they come to you.

This is not true. I came over today after receiving the invitation. I wanted to talk to you and see how to solve this problem. "

Ye Ming understood clearly this time. It turns out that he doesn't want to be controlled by others. This is easy to understand. Those old artists do have such a character. They are the kind of proud people anyway.

And they are unwilling to admit that they are outdated. Their songs are classics, but some of their songs will also become outdated. No one can deny this.

However, they are not willing to think this way, thinking that his songs are also classics, so he feels that if he cooperates with Ye Ming, someone will take a commission. This is something they do not understand and is unforgivable. They think that his songs are Why does one want to go out of town?

Then just make a website yourself.

I don’t think you’re going to point this out. It’s just a few old guys anyway. It’s strange that these websites don’t suffer. It’s unreasonable for them to succeed. You can’t be a bad person. There’s no point in offending so many people. .

Therefore, Ye Ming said with great certainty: "This is your thing. There is no big problem. Don't worry, as long as Ji National Yoga is willing to do such a thing, we will definitely support it technically. You can take a personal photo later." Go contact a few songs from our company and I will call them. At that time, we will provide as much help as we can."

Although Ye Ming said he agreed to help, he also said it directly on a problem like this. It was the help that he could do technically, and there was no need to say anything else.

The technology of Huihuang.com is very good, just let two programmers go there, but you have to solve other tasks, such as servers and so on, by yourself. In this regard, Ye Ming is not willing to be taken advantage of. Anyway, I can help with technology, but I can't help with anything else. After all, you are here to make money.

This must be explained clearly first.
