Every time Ye Fan's new album stirs up troubles in the Chinese music scene, the busiest person is not him, but his manager and company vice president Wang Jinghua.

On the 15th, Zhou Linggang came to the capital to inspect [Feiteng Film and Television City], and Wang Jinghua followed Ye Fan's order to go to him to negotiate the price of acquiring [Feiteng].

Zhou Linggang offered a price of 100 million RMB. Naturally, the asking price was sky-high. Wang Jinghua was responsible for paying back the money.

Since Zhou Linggang is willing to sell, he needs to negotiate a purchase price that is acceptable to both parties.

On the first day of the meeting, both parties were testing each other's bottom line. If both parties wanted to reach an agreement, long-term negotiations would be needed.

However, the huge impact caused by Ye Fan's endorsement of Penguin made Internet companies such as [Xinlang] find Wang Jinghua again, and she also had to conduct business negotiations for a period of time.

Wang Jinghua’s previous quotation for [Xinlang] was 10 million per year. In 1999, this endorsement fee was still very high for domestic companies.

On the list of endorsement fees for hundreds of domestic celebrities that was exposed in 2008, Cheng Long had 14 million and Andy Lau had 10 million, not to mention the 10 million in 1999.

10 million is in line with Ye Fan's worth, but [Xinlang] feels that this price is too high, but the situation is different now. With more competitors, it is still unknown whether 10 million can win over Ye Fan.

Therefore, in addition to taking time to negotiate the price with Zhou Linggang, Wang Jinghua also had to meet with major Internet companies to discuss Ye Fan's endorsement fee. It was a busy time...

It was much easier for Zhang Xing. He was mainly responsible for picking up Martin, the lyricist from Warner Bros., and entertaining him for a night. Zhang Xing arranged for someone to send him to Hengdian to meet Ye Fan...

On the morning of the 17th, Ye Fan finally met Martin in Hengdian.

However, the attitude of this old American made Ye Fan a little unhappy. Martin kept complaining about the backwardness of domestic transportation, how uncomfortable it was to come to Hengdian, and how he was not used to domestic food.

So Ye Fan inquired about Martin's background and learned that he was a lyricist trained by Warner. His previous works were average. He was an authentic American and was very familiar with American society and culture. After Ye Fan prepared to "entertain

"Hit him.

Anyway, this guy looks a little better than the street kid. Once Ye Fan successfully breaks into the European and American music scene, there will be no need for him.

In this case, Martin dared to pretend to be a foreigner when he came to his territory, could Ye Fan not deal with him?

In the evening, Ye Fan arranged a dinner in the name of entertaining him, and he invited everyone on the crew who could drink, as well as his bodyguards, which gave Martin a good insight into the domestic drinking culture.

Ye Fan was not in a hurry to ask him to write lyrics. He just arranged a three-day drinking party and made Martin drink and vomit every day. It can even be said that he never sobered up...

On this day, Taiwan Province’s [Golden Songs Chart] released its fourth-week summer list. Only three days after its release, “Love Has to Be” ranked fifteenth on the list, and its sales volume was mediocre.

Following this trend, when the list is released next week, there is basically no problem for Ye Fan to top the list.

Above Ye Fan is "Eyes On Me" by Princess Concubine, emm...it's still acceptable to be pressed down by Sister Concubine.

During this time, the princess was dealing with divorce matters, and it was not convenient for Ye Fan to go to her at this time.

Moreover, Ye Fan has been hesitating whether to take away the opportunity from Xie Xiaofeng and the soft rice man, which is quite confusing...

On the 19th, Martin couldn't stand the drink anymore and went straight to Ye Fan.

"Oh, dear Ye, don't arrange a dinner party tonight. You Chinese people are so enthusiastic. If I keep drinking like this, I will probably go to see your Chinese God!"

Hearing Martin's words of giving up, Ye Fan replied in English with a smile: "How can this be done? I heard you said that Chinese food is not delicious and the environment is still backward. You have come all the way, so I must treat you well.

"

Martin's expression changed when he heard this. He was not stupid. The meaning of Ye Fan's words was too obvious. He forced a smile and said:

"Ye, I think you misunderstood me. What I meant was that I need to adjust my eating habits..."

Ye Fan's expression turned cold and he interrupted him: "You don't have to say anything. I know exactly what you mean. I hope you can correct your attitude. This is my territory. You must listen to me when you come here."

Martin was very angry after hearing this. He didn't know Ye Fan's energy at all. He said proudly: "I am an American, and I don't believe you dare to let me have trouble in your country."

"And why should I listen to you? I enjoy human rights and freedom. You are not my boss and have no right to order me."

Ye Fan sneered: "Have any of your songs with lyrics been on the bulletin board? You don't know your status in Warner? Otherwise, why would Warner send you here?"

"And with my assets, I can be considered a big capitalist in the United States. How dare you be so arrogant to capitalists in the United States? Even if you go back to the United States, I can make you unemployed. Do you believe it?"

When Martin heard this, his expression changed. Ye Fan's words had hit the point, but the pride of Americans made him not want to bow down so easily.

When Ye Fan saw this, he didn't waste any time, picked up the phone directly, reported his situation to Xu Zhiwei in front of Martin, and asked for a replacement.

Xu Zhiwei knew Ye Fan's temper, so he didn't say much and directly reported it to Warner headquarters...

After a while, Martin's phone rang, and he walked aside and answered the phone...

Seeing this, Ye Fan didn't bother to pay attention to him, turned around and went back to the room. Ye Fan didn't believe that this would cure him.

Sure enough, not long after Ye Fan returned to the room, Martin came looking for him.

"I'm sorry, dear Ye, I shouldn't have treated you that way just now. Please accept my apology for the sake of God."

Seeing Martin lower his head, Ye Fan pouted and said, "Sorry, I don't believe in God. I won't forgive you. It depends on whether you can cooperate with me in writing the lyrics."

"If you can't write it well, I'll ask Warner to send the next person over. You can't go back to the United States until you finish filling in the words. You can figure it out yourself."

After saying that, Ye Fan didn't care what Martin thought and gave him the music score.

Even though he felt very unhappy, after being scolded by Warner executives, Martin did not dare to make any mistakes. He took the score and started reading it.

Martin wants to see what English songs a Chinese can write. If the songs are not good, he will have something to say.

But when Martin saw a few songs with most of the words already written, he tried humming it, and the more he hummed, the more surprised he became. After reading the score with his eyes wide open, he raised his head and looked at Ye Fan in disbelief!

"Dear...Mr. Ye, are these all songs written by you? It's unbelievable. These ten songs are all on the Billboard level. It's such an honor for me to write lyrics for such songs!"

After seeing the quality of the song, Martin's attitude instantly became very complimentary, which made Ye Fan feel very contemptuous, and he couldn't handle it.

Ye Fan shook his head and said: "Let me correct you. I can fill in the lyrics for these songs. You just cooperate with me in writing the lyrics to avoid problems with the lyrics in the United States."

"In addition, I have registered the copyright for these songs in the United States. Don't use your imagination, work hard, fill in the lyrics and I will reward you with 10,000 US dollars!"

Martin was very disappointed when he heard that the copyright of the lyrics had nothing to do with him, but he felt a little better when he heard that he still had $10,000 to get.

Then Ye Fan asked Martin to help him fill in the lyrics and check if there were any problems with the lyrics. Then Ye Fan was ready to go back to the crew to film.

Before leaving, Ye Fan left a bodyguard in the room to watch him, and Martin would only be allowed to use the computer and phone in Ye Fan's presence.

Although the method is a bit strict, the confidentiality work must be done well. He is an American, so this may speed up his work efficiency.

Besides, Ye Fan has already finished most of the song. As long as he works hard, he can finish it in a few days.

After hearing Ye Fan's arrangements, Martin could only force a smile and start working. He had already seen Ye Fan's energy, and the money that the capitalists at Warner Bros. gave him was not as much as what Ye Fan rewarded him.

As an authentic American, he naturally chooses the one with more money. Who should he work for? It’s just a good job, so don’t complain!

…

When Martin staged "The Passion of the Passion", it was only 6 days on the 20th.

"Love Is Unavoidable" rushed to the tenth place on the Mainland on-demand list, "As Long as I Live for You" also reached the eleventh place, and the other four songs also entered the top twenty.

This has made many fans wonder, didn't they read on the Internet that Ye Fan's new album was of poor quality? Why did the results still rise so fast?

If Ye Fan's fans knew what they were thinking, they would definitely shake their heads and say they were too young.

Even if Ye Fan's new song is really mediocre, given his popularity and Ye Fan's huge number of fans, the song can be pushed onto the charts.

What's more, the album "The Last Resort" is not bad. It gets better the more you listen to it. It's not surprising that the number of views is increasing day by day.

Compared to outsiders, people in the industry are much more professional. After the 10th, except for young singers, no male singer has released a new album in the past 20 days. Doesn’t this explain the problem?

They say the quality of Ye Fan's new album is not good, so why don't they release a new album? What are you waiting for? Can't they see how great "The Love Must Be" is?

Male singers did not release songs, but female singers released new albums. After all, Ye Fan's album had limited impact on them, but they were more afraid that Ye Fan would help Zeng Li release another album...

On the 20th, Zhang Huimei released a new album "Feeling". This album contains 4 songs and is an EP album released to coordinate with the Sprite advertisement.

This year, Zhang Huimei served as the spokesperson for Sprite Asia, and Coca-Cola Asia created two songs for her, "Make Me Feel" and "Sunrise" as promotional songs.

If Coca-Cola doesn't launch an Asian spokesperson, it will really be rubbed to the ground by Pepsi in Asia.

Who told Pepsi to sign Ye Fan? "I Believe" is also the theme song for Pepsi's promotion in Asia.

Previously, Pepsi gave Ye Fan an additional RMB 3 million in order to allow Ye Fan to authorize the rights to adapt their songs, adapt "I Believe" into other Asian languages, let singers from other countries sing it, and use it as a local promotion for Pepsi.

song.

Therefore, in Asia, Ye Fan's most widely sung song is "I Believe"... The power of capital is indeed very powerful!

Karen Mok also released a new album "You" today. This album can be said to be an example of a classic song driving the sales of the entire album. This song is "Cloudy".

Except for "Cloudy", the other songs in "You" are not very good, but one classic song or masterpiece is enough for this album to become a hit and make Karen Mok famous for a long time.

Except for Zhang Huimei and Mok Wenwei, there are no other dark horses or female singers who can break out of the industry.

Therefore, in addition to the beginning of April, three well-known singers such as Ye Fan released new albums in mid-to-late April. People who are not familiar with this situation will probably think that the Chinese music scene is quite miserable.

But other singers don't want to either. Male singers should avoid Ye Fan, and female singers should avoid Zhang Huimei and Karen Mok.

At this time, Karen Mok was still a very powerful female singer in Hong Kong, otherwise she would not have the guts to release an album on the same day as Zhang Huimei.

Zhang Huimei is even more popular. She is now the first day queen in Taiwan and the only female singer in the Chinese music world who can compete with the princess.

Before the millennium, except for Ren Xianqi, when other Taiwanese singers faced Zhang Huimei, there was only one word: kill!

So despite the fact that "Feeling" only has 4 songs, Taiwanese female singers all avoid its edge.

If it hadn't been for the fact that in May 2000, she sang a "provincial song" of Taiwan Province at a ceremony, and was banned because of her problematic position, the so-called queens of Taiwan Province would have been petty in front of her.

younger sister.

Not to mention Ye Fan, who directly suppressed male singers across the country. They would all shy away from Ye Fan's singing!
