After humming it several times.
Only then did Hu Yibao turn on his cell phone.
"Ding ding ding!!"
Another flood of messages and missed calls.
Among them was Aunt Wang's call, which she received twice.
In addition, there was a call from Shanghai that was not answered after more than twenty calls.
Hu Yibao frowned.
I also saw this number yesterday and called it more than ten times but the call was not answered.
However, because it was an unfamiliar number, Hu Yibao ignored it.
"Could it be a friend?"
Hu Yibao guessed in his heart.
Just when I was about to call.
"La la la!!"
The phone suddenly rang.
It's a call from Modu.
Connected.
An excited voice immediately rang in Hu Yibao's ears.
"Excuse me, are you Hu Yibao, Mr. Hu?"
Hu Yibao asked doubtfully: "It's me, what's the matter?"
After confirming Hu Yibao's identity, the voice on the other end of the phone became even more excited.
"That's right!"
"I'm Yang Ming, a staff member of QQ Music. We want to discuss something with you."
I was unexpectedly approached by QQ Music.
Hu Yibao was a little surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt relieved.
He released two hit songs on QQ Music.
It would be a problem if the other party, as a professional music website, did not contact us.
"What's the matter?" Hu Yibao asked.
"Mr. Hu, do you have a contract with an agent or a website?"
"No!"
"Then can you consider our QQ Music? Our website is one of the largest music websites in China, with over 100 million users. And we will definitely allocate more resources to you."
Without waiting for the other party to finish, Hu Yibao directly refused, "I won't consider signing with an agent or a website."
"Anything else? If not, then I'm hanging up."
Singing is just a means for Hu Yibao to quickly accumulate reputation points at present. Hu Yibao has never thought about making a living from it.
Maybe after the Chinese New Year, I will start to switch to other industries.
"Would you consider selling us the copyrights of your two songs, Dong Feng Po and Qing Hua Ci?"
Buy songs?
Hu Yibao immediately became interested.
"What price are you going to offer?" Hu Yibao asked directly.
Anyway, I won't make a living from these two songs in the future.
It would be better to sell them all at once while Dongfengpo and Blue and White Porcelain are at their peak and get some start-up capital.
QQ Music Headquarters.
Yang Ming never expected that Hu Yibao would directly agree to sell the copyrights of Dong Feng Po and Blue and White Porcelain.
He originally just wanted to use this opportunity to bargain and get the agency distribution rights, which was also the task assigned by the website's boss.
After all, songs like "Dong Feng Po" and "Qing Hua Ci" are epoch-making songs that can almost represent China. In the future, as long as the other party operates well, they will be successful.
In the future, money will be endless.
"That" Yang Ming was stunned for a moment, and then quickly said, "Mr. Hu, can you wait for a minute? I'll ask the boss for instructions."
"OK!"
After getting Hu Yibao's response, Yang Ming immediately half-covered the microphone of his mobile phone, and then used the computer to send a message to his boss.
"Boss, I've contacted Mr. Hu Yibao. He agreed to sell the copyrights of Blue and White Porcelain and Dongfengpo, and is waiting for our offer."
The boss's message was replied immediately.
"Twenty million for one song!"
"You reply to him first, I'll be right over."
Twenty million, this is a sky-high price!
The buyout of a song by a top singer is only a few million.
This is also the highest price they have offered for purchasing song copyrights since the establishment of QQ Music.
"call!"
Slightly suppressing his surging emotions, Yang Ming replied to Hu Yibao.
"Mr. Hu, 20 million per song, how about that?"
"Only 20 million?"
Hu Yibao couldn't help but frowned.
Such a price can be said to be very good indeed.
but!
Dong Feng Po and Blue and White Porcelain, the meanings behind these two songs are extraordinary.
Even a hundred years later, people will still mention it.
Hu Yibao couldn't guarantee whether such epoch-making songs would appear in the lyrics book in the future.
Twenty million.
A little less.
"Give me the phone!"
A deep voice suddenly came from the phone, "I want to talk to Mr. Hu."
"Okay, boss!"
Immediately afterwards, a hearty laugh rang out from the other end of the phone.
"Hello, Mr. Hu, I am Cheng, the president of QQ Music."
"Here, on behalf of QQ Music, I would like to thank you for bringing these two epoch-making songs to the Chinese music scene."
This was pleasant to hear, and Hu Yibao smiled.
As expected of the president.
But no matter how nice it sounded, Hu Yibao said it without any hesitation.
"Twenty million is too low!"
"Mr. Hu, what do you mean?"
Hu Yibao gave his price: "Permanent copyright buyout, 50 million, one song!"
"This" Cheng hesitated.
50 million per song.
Two songs equal one hundred million.
The Chinese music scene has been around since its inception.
There has never been such a price.
Looking around the world, there are only about ten songs like this.
Even though he is the president of QQ Music and has the Penguin Empire behind him, he is not short of money.
But one hundred million to buy two songs.
It is true
"This price is not high!" Hu Yibao said, "You should have seen the traffic that Dong Feng Po and Blue and White Porcelain have generated for QQ Music in the past two days."
"On Weibo, major news platforms, and WeChat Moments, netizens also mentioned your QQ Music when they sang my two songs."
"The terrifying traffic created behind it is so huge that even if you spend 100 million on advertising, you can't match it."
Hu Yibao issued an ultimatum, "One hundred million, and give you five minutes to consider."
"Five minutes later, I will report this price to other music platforms."
Cheng gritted his teeth and replied, "Okay! One hundred million for two songs."
Just as Hu Yibao said, the data created by Dong Feng Po and Blue and White Porcelain for QQ Music is obvious to all.
If anyone pursues this matter, Cheng can just produce the data and throw it in the face of the Penguin Empire behind QQ Music.
In addition, there was also some anger in his behavior.
In recent years, the buyout prices of foreign songs have reached new highs, attracting market attention.
But when it comes to China, why are the songs so low?
In the past, Chinese music was indeed inferior to others.
But now it's different.
"Dong Feng Po" and "Blue and White Porcelain" are in no way inferior to foreign masterpieces. The Chinese music scene now has a chance to stand up.
This time, I am going to pay a sky-high price to let those foreign musicians see.
But at his core, he is still a businessman. After agreeing to Hu Yibao's offer, he immediately put forward his own conditions.
"However, Mr. Hu Yibao, before that, I have a request here, and I hope you can agree to it."
