Chapter 021 Worth Tens of Thousands
A few days later, when Zhang Chen thought that he and Lin Yunxi could not have any relationship again, Lin Yunxi came again.
But this time she came, but she didn't come to see a doctor, but asked Zhang Chen to see if she could sing that song on the stage of "The Voice of China"?
Because her registration has passed the preliminary review of the program team, the next time, I will just wait for the notification to come on stage.
"certainly."
Of course, Zhang Chen agreed. In fact, the reason why he gave Lin Yunxi that song was originally intended to let her take that song to participate in the "Voice of China" competition, but he didn't expect that Lin Yunxi would come over to ask once in person.
Then, the two discussed the copyright issue of this song. When Lin Yunxi heard Zhang Chen say that the song was not registered for copyright, she was really surprised and said, "Zhang...Brother Zhang, how can you not register? The copyright registration is very convenient now. If you don't register, you will be registered in the future. What should I do?"
"No, it's just a free work." Zhang Chen said.
But after hearing what he said, Lin Yunxi was speechless. But his spare time works were so high? Is this not allowing other composers to live?
"No, Brother Zhang, if this song is sold on the market, it will be worth at least tens of thousands of yuan, even if you are still a newcomer in the industry. So, you should register as soon as possible.
"Oh? It's worth tens of thousands?"
Zhang Chen really didn't expect this. He knew that the entertainment industry is making money now, but he did not expect that he would make money to this extent. It was earning higher than a national treasure-level researcher in his previous life.
However, what he didn't expect was that Lin Yunxi was actually talking about it. In fact, such a high-quality song is often priceless.
Although the protection of intellectual property rights in this time and space is better than the time and space that Zhang Chen once lived in, in terms of works in the entertainment industry, it is far less prosperous than the contending of another time and space.
So, Lin Yunxi is really grateful to Zhang Chen for giving her this gift, because she understands very well how valuable this gift is.
It is precisely because of this that she never thought of taking this song for herself. She was already satisfied that Zhang Chen would be willing to let her sing this song in the "Voice of China" competition. How could she dare to hope for more?
Moreover, compared to Zhang Chen, what is a mere song worth?
She is not a short-sighted person. In her opinion, as long as she gets along with Zhang Chen in the future, would she be afraid that she will not have a good song?
Of course, her current financial situation is still relatively difficult, so she didn't dare to mention buying out the copyright of this song.
However, Zhang Chen noticed it instead and said, "Then I have registered the copyright. Will it have any impact on your singing?"
What Zhang Chen thought was that if there was any impact, just forget it. After all, he took out this song and was going to give it to Lin Yunxi.
When Lin Yunxi heard this, she was stunned for a moment, and then said, "No...No, unless you want to pursue it."
"Or...or, you can authorize me, and no one else can use it for commercial performances in the future."
Lin Yunxi said nervously, and she regretted it after she said it.
What is she doing? Is this? Let someone authorize her? This is nice, but actually it means buying out the copyright of the song?
But, where can she have any money to pay for the buyout fee now? Even the original treatment fee is owed to her, okay?
"Oh, that's the best. Come on, how do you do this authorization? Let's do it now."
However, what Lin Yunxi did not expect was that Zhang Chen didn't care so much. After hearing that he could directly authorize Lin Yunxi, he immediately chose this most direct and simple method.
"Okay... OK. Brother Zhang, thank you, don't worry, although I don't have an agent or lawyer now, I will definitely draft this contract well. I will buy all the songs you wrote for me at the highest price in the industry."
"But, this buyout fee may only be paid when I have better conditions in the future."
Lin Yunxi said, looking at Zhang Chen embarrassedly.
"It's okay. Then that's it."
The two of them agreed, so Lin Yunxi quickly began to formulate the contract.
She had never drafted this kind of contract before, but she hadn't drafted it yet, had she not read it yet? So she drafted it soon, and Zhang Chen took a casual look and signed it.
Then, Lin Yunxi began to teach Zhang Chen how to register his own song copyright.
This is the era of the Internet, so it is still very convenient. Zhang Chen does not need to go to the patent office specifically.
He just needs to download a special mobile app, register it in his real identity, and then register the copyright.
And like him, there are so many people who come to register after writing a song. However, because most people write songs without any artistic or commercial value, most of them only register in the most affordable way, just to be in case.
Of course, the song "written" by Zhang Chen will definitely not have artistic and commercial value. Lin Yunxi feels that there are only a handful of songs that can be compared with it in the current music industry.
Therefore, according to Lin Yunxi's meaning, Zhang Chen's song naturally cannot be registered with one form, but should be carried out in various forms at the same time.
It turns out that the copyright registration of music works in this time and space can be divided into three forms. One is in the form of music scores, which is also the most commonly used and commonly used form for ordinary composers; the second is in the form of lyrics, and there are many people who adopt this form, mainly those works that have already filled in the lyrics; the third is works that are registered in the form of audio, which has the most such works. Because the registration fee for registration in this way is the lowest, it is adopted by many grassroots authors.
However, the disadvantages of works registered in this third form are also very obvious. Because the "National Copyright Library" of music works registered in the previous two forms will undergo intelligent automatic review and anti-theft, and only works that have passed the review can be registered.
However, there are not so many requirements for the works registered in the form of audio. Anyway, as long as you register, you can basically pass it.
