After Qi Ji finished his lunch, he rode a small electric donkey to the agreed place.
After all, the other party is the boss of the International Literary and Art Association and the overall person in charge of the entire global singing competition.
Basic respect should still be given to Qi Ji.
What the other party wanted to talk about was the copyright of Qi Ji's songs throughout Asia and even on the world stage in the future.
So far, in the entire Asian Singer Contest, all participating singers and the copyright management of the songs in the competition have been handed over to the International Literature and Art Association.
If you simply hand over the copyright to the other party for operation, it is actually acceptable to Qi Ji.
But the other party is really greedy.
Under the guise of "You have already won the prize money in this competition, and not everyone can have the title of Global Singer!", the other party directly took 90% of the income from the global operation of the song.
Only 10% will be given to the creator of this song.
This was unacceptable to Qi Ji.
But Qi Ji's market in the entire country of China is very large.
Therefore, the other party really wants Qi Ji to compromise!
After all, this is a lot of money!
afternoon.
In the cafe downstairs of Miracle Entertainment, Qi Ji met Hidan Taiwo, the president of the International Literary and Art Association, and his party.
There was a smile on the other person's face.
Of course Qi Ji was also smiling.
Qi Ji shook hands with the other party: "Hello, Mr. President."
"Hello, Professor Qi Ji." Hidan Taiwo did not call Mr. Qi Ji or Teacher Qi Ji.
He directly called Qi Ji his identity at Chaoyang Conservatory of Music.
The two people sat down opposite each other.
Hidan Taiwo took a sip of coffee and said with a smile: "The taste of this shop is not authentic. Now that you are in New York, I will treat you to my exclusive collection of top-grade hand-ground coffee."
"I'll definitely come when I get the chance." Qi Ji said, and after a pause, he continued, "Let's just talk about what we have to say directly. There is no room for retreat on the issue of copyright income. Five or five points is already what I can do.
This is the limit of acceptance!”
Hidan Taiwo put down his coffee cup calmly and said: "Professor Qi Ji, don't be impatient. Let me analyze it for you. There is no doubt about your popularity in China! But
If we look at the sponsorship fees for the entire event, the advertising revenue from China is only 8% of the revenue in the entire Asia region, which is far lower than the 19% of Kimchi Country and 21% of Neon Country.
"
Qi Ji said: "All five singers from Kimchi were eliminated!"
Hidan Taiwo said: "Yes. So after entering the top 16, the advertising revenue from Kimchi Country is declining rapidly. This is a fact, and there is nothing to hide. And what I want to say is, in fact
The entire Chinese-speaking region’s attention to this event is not as great as we imagined!”
Qi Ji shook his head and said: "Your analysis is wrong... The reason for the low advertising revenue is that many domestic manufacturers feel that the commercial value of the competition itself is not that great! Don't think I don't know.
In order to obtain the live broadcast rights and copyright fees for this Asian competition, CCTV spent a lot of money!"
Hidan Taiwo: "...Professor Qi Ji, do you know why you drew Tamaki Qingtian, who can be said to be one of the four strongest seed players in this Asian tournament?"
The other person seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
Qi Ji took a deep look at the other party and smiled sarcastically: "Facing the global audience, what little tricks do you want to do?"
Hidan Taiwo said: "We don't dare to falsify the votes, but we can do it so that there will be some opponents on your way forward that you may not encounter according to the normal drawing of lots."
Hidan Taiwo’s words basically made it clear.
Qi Ji thought of what a Neon reporter had exposed not long ago.
The draw for the entire tournament was basically rigged.
The way they operate is also very simple.
It relies on heating the lottery ball to draw out the person you want.
After hearing what the other party said, Qi Ji just smiled faintly.
The opponent's operation of choosing a master for himself is indeed a bit murderous.
But Qi Ji is determined to be the champion after all, so who his opponent is is actually not that important.
The two people chatted here for a full three hours.
But in the end, no agreement was reached.
Qi Ji saw him off and returned to the company.
Meng Feichen walked up and when he saw Qi Ji's expression, he had an idea: "Boss, the other party is still unwilling to give up the benefits, right?"
Qi Ji said: "No, in the end he threatened me that my competition this time would be over."
Qi Ji once again explained the opponent's operation of deliberately drawing Yuzhi Qingtian to him.
Meng Feichen punched the wall hard and said: "Damn, these foreigners are bullying us because there is no one in the International Literary and Art Association! Do you think they dare to do this to the singers from the Neon Kingdom?"
Meng Feichen gritted his teeth and said, "Boss, did you record just now?"
Qi Ji shook his head with a smile and said: "This kind of thing is already a well-known secret. They are completely confident, so things like recording will not threaten the other party at all!"
Meng Feichen said: "But the good news is that they don't dare to manipulate the final vote yet!"
Qi Ji said: "I have to call the big boss!"
Meng Feichen immediately gave Qi Ji a thumbs up.
The next morning.
Answering reporters' questions during a routine daily foreign affairs meeting in China.
The diplomatic boss said seriously to the media around the world: "Currently, there is a singer event being held around the world. It gathers the attention of music lovers from all over the world. We believe that it is absolutely fair and just.
It’s public, but if anything unfair or unfair happens in this matter..."
The implication of this paragraph is to warn the organizing committee members of the event.
As soon as Hidan Taiwo returned to the headquarters of the International Literary and Art Association, his subordinates handed him the news about China's voice.
He tapped the table lightly.
Half an hour later, he directly convened a high-level meeting of the Literary and Art Association.
"President, you personally took action and couldn't reach an agreement?"
"This Chinese guy is really a bit too arrogant! Too greedy! He doesn't even think about it, if we hadn't promoted the establishment of this competition, why would he participate? Not to mention, he has gained a lot of money by relying on our competition.
With his popularity, he has earned a lot of money in the neon film industry that he should not have earned in the first place!"
"Fortunately, we made a judgment earlier... and gave Tamaki Qingtian to him... This kid should disappear from our game as soon as possible!"
Hidan Taiwo looked at the people in the video. Everyone has made a lot of money in this global singing competition. They are all grasshoppers tied on a rope.
He pondered for a while, and then said: "Everyone, please be quiet. You should have seen China's official statement. Please keep a low profile. If we remove a Chinese person, we will lose the support of so many countries in all continents for us."
Support, then the gain outweighs the loss!”
Several vested interests discussed it for a long time.
In the end, I still put my hope in Tamaki Qingtian.
So far, everything should be going well.
After all, there is a huge gap in popularity between Qi Ji and Yuzhi Qingtian in Asia.
Neon Country, Yuzhi Qingtian’s studio.
Tamaki Aota, who already had silver hair, was holding a guitar and had just finished practicing the song he wanted to use in the top 16 competition.
His assistant, who is also his son, held the mobile phone and said: "Dad, your opponent Qi Ji is very strong!"
My son played several live videos of Qi Ji to Yuzhi Qingtian.
Tamaki Qingtian nodded repeatedly and said: "The singing skills are indeed very good, and the melody writing is also first-rate."
The son chatted with Tamaki Aota for a few words, then took a picture of his father's working status at the moment and posted it on Twitter.
Tamaki Qingtian is an evergreen tree in Asian music. His number of fans on Twitter exceeds 50 million.
So as soon as this tweet was sent out, it immediately aroused excitement among his fans.
"I'm really touched! Seeing that the teacher is so old and still has such a passionate heart for music. As a music fan of the teacher for 30 years, I really love him!"
"Teacher, I will definitely win the first prize this time! In the whole of Asia, at a glance, is there anyone who can beat Tamaki Aota-sensei?"
"Haha, I have to say that in every round, the teacher's opponents are the worst! They all have to face the situation of being crushed by the teacher!"
"The first two rounds were just a beating! Who is our opponent this time? By the way, Qi Ji from China, right? Just beat him hard and that's it!"
Yuzhi Qingtian's influence throughout Asia is unparalleled.
There are many fans.
So in everyone's eyes, Qi Ji is basically going to lose this time.
Because Qi Ji does not have a Twitter account, Qi Ji's fans, although some people have seen some messages on Twitter that look down on Qi Ji.
But because the organization couldn't recruit enough people, they basically mocked Qi Ji on Twitter, and there weren't many voices of opposition.
The company's publicity department quickly discovered this incident and reported the relevant information to Qi Ji.
Qi Ji pondered for a while and said: "In this case, I'd better open an account on Twitter!"
Just as he said, Qi Ji opened his own Twitter account in the afternoon.
Then he posted his first tweet, a simple sentence: "Hello everyone, I am Qi Ji."
The official Twitter account of the Asian Hegemony Competition also immediately forwarded Qi Ji’s first tweet.
In one day, the number of followers of Qi Jidi on Twitter exceeded 1 million.
The rate of increase in fans is quite fast.
But most of them are Chinese.
"Ahhhhh! Teacher Qi Ji finally opened a special account!"
"One day has passed, how come there are only more than one million people? Where have all the hundreds of millions of fans and friends in the country gone?"
"I look forward to Teacher Qi Ji killing indiscriminately in the King of Singing Competition!"
"Youth abroad, tremble!"
The news that Qi Ji had opened a Twitter account soon spread to fans of Yuzhi Qingtian.
Many fans quickly surrounded Qi Ji's special tweet.
"????You still know how to show up?"
“Can Chinese people also use our software?”
"If you open a Twitter account at this time, aren't you just going to get beaten up on your own?"
"You don't open it early and you don't open it late. This time we met our Qingtian teacher and you suddenly opened it? Tell yourself, do you want to take advantage of the popularity?"
"Ahhhh! Qi Jisang!! The Fengshen Universe series is so good! When will the latest sequel be produced? I can't wait?"
Suddenly, the entire comment area was in a state of chaos.
Qi Ji did not take care of the comment area for the time being. Instead, he coordinated with several planning plans in the company's publicity department and made some corresponding publicity on Twitter.
Let more and more foreigners know that they have arrived on Twitter.
Because of Qi Ji's outstanding performance in the entire Asian Singer Contest, along with the publicity, the number of followers on Qi Ji's Twitter is also increasing.
…
Feng Muyu finished the day's filming of "Guo Xiang" and returned to the hotel to simply wash up.
She lay on the bed with a copy of "Zhuangzi" in her hand.
On the page between the bookmarks is the text of the paragraph "It is better to forget each other than to meet in the world."
She took off the bookmark, rubbed her face, then applied a facial mask, opened the tablet, and clicked into the live broadcast room of CCTV 1.
Today is the live broadcast of the fifth issue of "Spring and Autumn and Warring States".
At this moment, the live broadcast room is packed with people.
As soon as she came in, dense barrage floated across the screen.
"Ahhhh! Qu Yuan is awesome!"
"The people next to King Chu are all fools, right?"
"Qu Yuan reminds me of Yue Fei!!"
"A person who is so patriotic is actually treated like this! Is this really okay!?"
"Qi Ji, just write and film this kind of plot to torture everyone!"
Today's broadcast is none other than the famous patriotic poet Qu Yuan.
Qu Yuan, a native of Chu, was a descendant of a certain king of Chu.
During this era, the Qin State had gradually grown in size, and the six kingdoms were all divided by Zhang Yi of the Qin State using [Lian Heng].
And the Chu State was the one that was played around with and was the worst.
Qu Yuan was exiled by the King of Chu for admonishing him.
On the banks of the Miluo River, he heard the news that Qin general Bai Qi had captured the capital of the King of Chu.
Suddenly, he was filled with anger and had nowhere to vent, and he was filled with anger and could not calm down, so he threw himself into the Miluo River.
This day is the fifth day of May this year.
The audience who saw this place were in awe.
"Let me go...how did Qin become so awesome?"
"That's right! In the previous issues, I felt that the Qin State was very ordinary. I thought the last one to dominate the world was the Chu State?!"
"Fuck! Qu Yuan threw himself into the river? Torture me to death!"
The audience couldn't stand it any longer.
On the TV, a flashback began.
Qu Yuan walked between heaven and earth.
He shouted:
"At the beginning of ancient times, who preached it? How can we examine it when the upper and lower parts are not yet formed?"
"I took a long breath to cover my tears, mourning the hardships of the people's lives."
"The road is long and long, and I will search for it up and down."
"I have a good heart, and even though I died nine times, I still have no regrets."
This night, "Chu Ci" fell into the world like starlight.
