193 Resignation

Qin Yu arranged for Wu Qian to go to the company's music room to borrow a folk guitar and sang the song for Xia Yu and Song Ran.

Although Qin Yu has always been mainly rock and roll, it is not difficult to sing folk songs or pop songs at all. The beautiful melody and infectious lyrics made Song Ran very moved. If it weren't for his singing, Song Ran would have always wanted to stay this song.

Xia Yu also looked at the song in a tangled way. He didn't know whether he should give it to Yuan Quan. He had to make a promise after giving it to him. This was something he had never considered clearly, but he decided to buy the copyright of the song in the end.

After Yang Siwei came back from the meeting, he heard several people talking about this matter, so he went to the legal department of the company to get a copyright transfer agreement. The song was transferred to Xia Yu for a price of 100,000 yuan. Moreover, the copyright transfer company for such songs does not charge any management fees, and all belong to Qin Yu. He went to the company to post the accounts, just to pay taxes and assist them in registering copyrights.

"Is it a bit high for 100,000?" After Xia Yu left, Qin Yu couldn't help asking Yang Siwei.

"Brother Qin, although you are not a professional singer, your songs are quite famous in the circle, and this song is so touching. If it weren't for your good relationship with Xia Yu, I would have liked to offer 200,000 yuan." Yang Siwei felt that his eyes were emitting $lights and said flatteringly to Qin Yu: "Brother Qin, you will write such a beautiful song at this time, and you can use it as the title song if you take it out. Do you write two more songs? I'll sell it for you?"

"Do you think inspiration is always available. Isn't that song all takes a long time to write it? I don't know how long it took to conceive this song in Qin Yu's mind to write it out today." Without Qin Yu's words, Song Ran directly refuted Yang Siwei. In Song Ran's opinion, since Qin Yu was able to write this song, she must have thought about this issue, so she believes that Qin Yu must be considering the relationship between herself and him. It must be!

Xia Yu bought a high-quality song from Qin Yu, and it spread throughout the company within a while. Even Wang Ludan came to ask if he could invite the song, but was rejected by Qin Yu. Finally, seeing more and more artists and agents coming to inquire about the news, Qin Yu decided to flash the person and say hello to Wang Jinghua with Song Ran. The two left the company and prepared to buy a car.

During the Spring Festival, major TV stations in China launched wonderful programs to attract ratings, and Tomato Station in Shanghai was no exception. In addition to Tomato Station's Spring Festival Gala, they also produced two variety shows, "Huaxia Got Talent" and "I Type and My Show" that were popular last year, into a special program for broadcasting during the Spring Festival, which also achieved good ratings.

Today is also the first day of work at the beginning of the year, and staff who took turns to take off during the holidays also came to work. As the director of the variety show department, Joanna is now increasingly authoritative in Taiwan. There are rumors that the station intends to propose to Shanghai Radio and Television as the deputy director and in charge of variety show promotion, but she declined.

"Linna, sit down." Joanna greeted Jiang Linna with a puzzled look on her face.

"Joanna, why did you reject Master Mu's proposal?" The outside world thought it was a rumor, but Jiang Linna knew that this was true. Master Mu was about to retire next year. He wanted to push Joanna before retirement, but Joanna refused.

"Nothing, because I'm going to leave."

"Resign?" Jiang Linna, who was originally sitting down, stood up in surprise and looked at her good friend in disbelief.

Joanna smiled at her, reached out to comfort her, and signaled her to sit down: "Don't be so surprised. We have known each other for so many years. You should have known each other for a long time. I am not a person who can stay in the system and follow the steps."

"Yes, your personality is too serious and too easy to offend people. At present, we rely on good ratings to suppress those opposition voices. If the ratings are not satisfactory one day, I guess this wave of people will be the first to jump out and pick on it." Jiang Linna knew very well about this good friend's personality. It has made her feel incredible that Joanna was able to stay in the Tomato TV system for more than a year.

"When are you going to quit? Let's continue to fight side by side with you." Although I don't know what Joanna is going to do after resigning, it does not hinder Jiang Lina's follow-up. This is a trust in many years of cooperation, so when Joanna called, Jiang Lina left ATV, which had been working for ten years, to assist her.

"Linna, thank you. Thank you for your trust." Joanna showed gratitude: "Do you remember I mentioned the idea of ​​separation of production and broadcasting with you."

"Separate production and broadcasting?" Jiang Linna said worriedly: "Europe, America, Japan and South Korea are both like this model, but this model is not easy in the mainland. Without a TV station as a carrier, we are afraid that we can't hold on to such a model."

Joanna said confidently: "I don't know if you noticed that since last year, the United States' 'YouTube' was launched, and a short video website in the mainland was also launched. A classmate from Nanka University found me before the Spring Festival and was also preparing to set up an online video website. According to data released by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of China, the number of Chinese netizens had exceeded 100 million by the end of 2005. So I believe that with the vigorous development of the Internet, online video platforms will gradually become an important territory in the future."

"I'm not just pushing the treasures on the Internet now. I believe that with the development of technology, it will become an important territory in the later stage, but it's still a bit too early. After all, the market needs to be cultivated." Joanna continued to express her point of view: "What I want to do now is to separate the variety show production first, which is what we are better at."

"Are you planning to create a variety show alone?"

Joanna said to Jiang Lina: "Yes, film and television production requires cooperation from scripts, directors and actors, etc. These are our weaknesses. So I plan to start making variety shows first and then sell them to several domestic TV stations. I believe that with our connections and program quality, we will definitely gain something."

"It's certainly OK," Joanna's words made Jiang Lina very excited. She said to Joanna: "Actually, there is another important thing about copyright. If the variety show we make ourselves and the copyright belongs to us, we can sell it to overseas TV stations at that time. We won't be able to get a little bonus like "The Got Talent".

Regarding copyright issues, it is also the reason why Jiang Linna and others criticized Tomato Channel. The success of two consecutive seasons of "The Got Talent" made the US Fox TV, which belongs to News Corp. After the other party inspected the prospects of this variety show, Fox TV proposed to purchase the copyright of this variety show and prepare to produce "The Got Talent of the United States".

This made the leaders of Tomato TV very excited, thinking that it was just a cultural export act with more meaning than interests. If Joanna hadn't insisted, Taiwan would have almost given the copyright to Fox TV for free.

Fox TV finally took away the copyright for an ultra-low licensing fee of 5 million US dollars. You should know that Fox TV spent $70 million to purchase the copyright of "American Idol". After the final agreement was signed, the Tomato Variety Department was commended by the Taiwan Variety Department and each person was rewarded with a month's salary as a bonus.

In fact, this is one of the reasons why Joanna resigned. She took over the variety show department of Tomato TV mainly for the sake of Director Mu, an elder who has a relationship with the Yu family, and also wanted to change the environment after divorced from her husband. At present, Tomato TV's variety show department has already been on the right track, from the original five major satellite TV stations in East China to the top two, and the value of variety shows is second only to Mango TV. She is worthy of the trust of the station, so it is time to consider her career.

After Jiang Linna complained, she began to ask practical topics: "Where are we going out this time, are we going to start from? Or is it a talent show?"

Joanna nodded and shook her head: "The talent show must be done, but not now. I have an idea for talent show and need to find a TV station to cooperate. Now we are trying to start our first variety show and make it a brand. After our show is accepted by the TV station, we can start our talent show."

"Well, you decide on the program creativity, and I will carry out the program production." Jiang Linna looked at Joanna and said, "There are a few people in the stage, and I want to take them away."

"Yes, but don't do too much, so it will save you from hurting the muscles and bones in the station. You must know that the program we will produce in the end should still cooperate with the TV station."
