Chapter 554: Good Things

~10 min read 1,842 words

"By the way, let me report the production speed of the game to everyone." Seeing that the atmosphere in the livestream was a bit heavy after talking about the game price, Miss Luo Quan decided to tell everyone something happy.

"Because we have a ready-made engine, and the production plans for all aspects are very clear, the output is increasing every day after expanding the recruitment of programmers." Miss Luo Quan said while opening a folder named "Information That Can Be Disclosed at Present."

"Inside this are the character concept drawings that have been made so far. It is estimated that the first demo video will be able to meet everyone in not long."

Miss Luo Quan slowly scrolled the mouse, and pictures of characters on the desktop appeared in front of the fans. Besides the two protagonists Tifa and Cloud, Aerith's picture also appeared among them. A group of fans shouted that they had a new wife again.

"Sure enough, love will disappear, right?" Miss Luo Quan saw fans shouting "sorry Tifa" and joked with a smile.

"Heh, this is a man."

"My heart only belongs to Tifa."

"Only children make choices; why can't you have both?"

Seeing one and loving one is the norm, and Miss Luo Quan has long been used to it.

Closing the folder, Miss Luo Quan said seriously: "In short, everyone just look forward to 'Final Fantasy'. This game selling for 359 will definitely not make you lose money."

"And putting it on steam, if you feel dissatisfied within two hours of playing, you can get a refund; it's not a one-hammer deal."

Ignoring the small part of fans in the livestream who were still shouting that it was a bit expensive, Miss Luo Quan entered the Canyon of the Peak to livestream the game for everyone for a while.

Time reached noon, and it was late at night in China. Miss Luo Quan rubbed her somewhat sore neck and went off the air amidst the farewell voices of the fans.

Glancing at her phone, she found a text message from Manager Zhou Yangwen, which was about the copyright of her songs.

Recently, the country has made great efforts to rectify the entertainment industry. Although there are not many policies in the music aspect, there is also an anti-monopoly.

Tencent, as the undisputed entertainment hegemon in the country, can be said to be the key care object this time. The exclusive copyrights bought at high prices in the past lost their exclusivity overnight.

This kind of thing must be a bit uncomfortable for Tencent Music, but there is no way.

These few days, Zhou Yangwen has also been busy with copyright matters, constantly communicating with major music copyright companies and modifying contracts.

And after the company finished communicating, it was the turn of those singers with large traffic, and Miss Luo Quan was naturally the first to bear the brunt.

Although Miss Luo Quan was affiliated with Sony Music when she debuted, the copyright of her songs is basically all in her own hands. Sony is only responsible for distribution in Japan. If the domestic company wants to buy the copyright, they still have to find her personally.

She has released so many new songs in the past two years, bringing hundreds of millions in revenue and traffic to Tencent Music. Manager Zhou Yangwen's treatment of her is also nothing to say.

If there were no anti-monopoly, this relationship might be maintained.

However, after receiving Zhou Yangwen's notice, Miss Luo Quan also knew that the relationship between the two would probably undergo some small changes.

Looking at the message sent by Zhou Yangwen, the general meaning is that the copyright can be sold, but it is better not to set the price too low. Everyone should be treated equally.

This requirement is actually not excessive at all, and even if it weren't said, Miss Luo Quan herself intended to do so.

After all, Tencent spent tens of millions to buy the copyright, and other music apps can get the copyright for a few million. That is too unfair to Tencent.

Although Tencent has a very bad reputation in the country, in business, it is best to treat everyone equally.

However, Miss Luo Quan is willing to treat everyone equally, but it doesn't mean that other music apps are willing to accept this opportunity.

Now copyright restrictions are open, exclusivity has become history, and major music apps are all making efforts to buy, buy, buy. Miss Luo Quan's asking price here is outrageously expensive, and the number of songs is relatively small. Most apps are still in a wait-and-see state for these independent singers who only have their own music copyright after trading with several major music companies.

In this day and age, if you want to make money, you have to have topics and traffic.

The quality of Miss Luo Quan's songs is very high, and the playback is also very good, but she is too Buddhist. She doesn't go on variety shows, doesn't accept interviews, and doesn't take advertisements. The value she can create is relatively limited, and she can only rely on selling albums to make money.

To be honest, Miss Luo Quan's works are so famous that those who want to listen to them have already bought them at this time. The money that can be earned by selling albums is not much.

If she really has to be signed, there will definitely be traffic, but most of the benefits are to make the platform's own users feel that their platform is amazing, being able to win Miss Luo Quan's copyright, and increasing the platform's favorability.

In fact, before, the copyright war between various music apps was so fierce that many users who like to listen to songs opened VIPs for several music platforms, so loyalty is also a joke.

Of course, as the hottest singer in the country now, Miss Luo Quan's songs must be bought, but the problem is that Tencent gave Miss Luo Quan too high a copyright fee at the beginning, and other apps don't have Tencent's strong funds, so there is some hesitation.

If the price were slightly lower, these people would have contacted Miss Luo Quan long ago.

Anyway, Miss Luo Quan herself doesn't need to be in a hurry. Currently, her works are the hardest in the Chinese music scene, and the languages cover Chinese, English, Japanese, and Korean. The number of music is only relative to those senior singers.

In terms of output, her nearly ten albums and sixty or seventy songs are already quite good.

Now there are many internet song works in the top of the charts, often one or two hundred, but most of them are cover works, and very few are written by themselves and sung red. The gap with her is visible to the naked eye.

For the sake of user experience, other music apps will find her sooner or later.

Currently, there are four or five powerful music apps in the country. The average price of her main album copyright fee is 20 million per album. Anyway, the price has been marked. Buy early, buy more, and get more discounts. As long as it is bought, their own users will definitely be happy.

However, there is one family whose copyright she will definitely not sell, and that is Yiyun.

This platform has done quite a few disgusting things to her before. Plagiarism, covers, etc., are all small things.

The most outrageous thing is that this platform packaged and sold her songs to users the day before they were taken off the shelves, and then the songs could not be searched the next day. As a result, they threw the pot to her on Weibo, causing her to be scolded for several days.

After the truth came out later, although Miss Luo Quan's reputation reversed, that disgusting feeling was not relieved at all.

She is a person with a big heart, but she also had a small heart when she was a child. After that incident, she didn't go to argue with Yiyun, but now that she thinks about it, it definitely won't be treated as if it didn't happen.

There are many ways to make money, but she will definitely not choose the way that makes her unhappy.

In short, the opening of copyright is a good thing for her. Songs can be sold to more platforms.

And when her next new album comes out, the price is estimated to rise even higher.

After all, exclusive copyright is gone, but music apps can still force listening, such as Miss Luo Quan's new album in October being launched on all platforms. If Tencent spends a higher price to release it a week in advance, then this advantage will come.

Anyway, there are policies above and countermeasures below. Competition is impossible without competition in business behavior.

But no matter what, Miss Luo Quan will definitely be the biggest winner because she can legally step on several boats and earn several copies of money for one song.

If it were a month ago, this would not be anything to be happy about. After all, her money was already so much that she couldn't squander it in two lifetimes. Money to her was just a number.

But now she finally understands that the so-called "can't squander in two lifetimes" is just that she doesn't have many ways to squander.

Look, she invested in a new energy technology, and billions of RMB were spent in an instant, and it was only enough for the early development. If she wants to get the complete technology, she has to continue to smash money.

The current Miss Luo Quan will definitely not say anything like: I have no interest in money.

Her goal is very clear, which is to make money.

After "The Silence of the Lambs" is finished, the following movies must all aim at commercial movies.

However, when can work start?

Miss Luo Quan opened the computer and looked at the local TV station in Los Angeles, USA.

Besides New York, Hollywood, as the world's film capital, is naturally a gathering place for marches.

However, there are no government officials in Hollywood, and protest marches don't make much sense, so a large group of people went to Los Angeles. Anyway, it's not far.

In Miss Luo Quan's view, this march, which has lasted for several days, has already changed its taste.

Originally, it was just the brave voice of film practitioners, striving for rights and equality for themselves.

However, as the protest march intensified and the media reported it, the influence of the march became huge.

At first, there were only a thousand people on the street. If organized a little, it wouldn't cause too much impact on public order.

However, after the march lasted for three days, the matter finally blew up.
