"So, have you contacted the copyright holder of this song yet?"
Seeing Zhou Yu run in covered in sweat, Xiong Tang immediately asked the question he was most concerned about.
But the next moment, he was disappointed, because Zhou Yu shook his head and said:
"Mr. Xiong, the other party has chosen to hide specific information, so apart from the name Xu Lu, nothing else can be found!"
"Xiao Zhou, doesn't this name sound familiar? Xu Lu... Xu Lu..."
Xiong Tang suddenly asked with a puzzled expression.
Zhou Yu probably hadn't expected the other person to ask that question, and first looked at them with surprise before speaking:
"Mr. Xiong, how could you forget this? That kid who gave us the cold shoulder last time is also named Xu Lu!"
Upon hearing this, Xiong Tang slapped his thigh and said:
"I was wondering why the name 'Xu Lu' sounded familiar. Turns out it's that wretched kid's name!"
"Xiao Zhou, do you think that song 'The You of the Past,' which suddenly became so popular, is sung by that kid?"
"How is that possible?"
Zhou Yu loudly denied it:
"Mr. Xiong, that kid is just a streamer with some fame. How could he possibly have such creative abilities?"
If he truly possessed such talent, he would have distinguished himself much earlier, instead of waiting until now to become a sensation.
"That's true!"
Xiong Tang was convinced and nodded, saying:
"It's a bit of a problem that we can't contact the copyright holder of this song, which is currently very popular."
"If we could use this song as the theme song for our film, it would definitely boost the box office significantly..."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu's eyes lit up instantly.
He quickly stepped forward and offered his advice:
"Mr. Xiong, since we can't find the other party, why don't we just let them come to us?"
Our Xia Lifei is a major company in the industry. We can just announce that we're willing to pay a hefty sum to buy the rights to use this song.
I'm sure the creator of the song 'The You of the Past' will definitely come to me!
"Your idea is good. If the other party doesn't have a management company, we can even sign him!"
Xiong Tang drew inferences from one instance to another and even came up with a better solution.
That way, even the step of 'buying at a high price' can be skipped.
Since they are our own artists, isn't it only natural to use the copyright of their songs?
...
Just as Xia Lifei was announcing his intention to spend a large sum of money to purchase the copyright to 'The You of the Past'.
Music creators in the industry are also speculating about the identity of this dark horse that suddenly emerged.
"Brother Kun, I've already asked around, but nobody knows this singer named Xu Lu!"
In a studio, the assistant looked troubled as he spoke.
Upon hearing this, Yang Dakun's expression turned terrifyingly gloomy.
It was clear that he was quite dissatisfied with the result.
As a veteran musician who has been famous in the industry for a long time, he originally wanted to continue to generate buzz.
So I specially created a great song and released it on Fireworks Music, which is currently the most popular music platform in China.
To this end, Yang Dakun even held a small press conference and gave out quite a few red envelopes.
The hope is that the song will become an instant hit.
Even to avoid clashing with other big-name musicians.
He also greeted those familiar celebrities.
As a veteran musician, Yang Dakun usually receives a certain amount of respect from other singers and celebrities.
Everyone promised not to cause any trouble while he was releasing his new song.
With such thorough preparation, Yang Dakun felt that his new song was a sure thing to become a hit.
But what he didn't expect was that the gears of fate would begin to turn here.
Actually, things went smoothly at first.
Yang Dakun's new song has just climbed to the top of the new song chart after some maneuvering.
However, unexpectedly, he hadn't been sitting on this throne for long before an accident happened!
A new song titled 'The You of the Past' has unexpectedly snatched the top spot from the new song chart with unstoppable momentum.
This made Yang Dakun so angry he almost vomited blood.
After regaining his senses, Yang Dakun was still thinking of making some more moves to take back the top spot on the new song chart.
Who knew that the song "The You of the Past" would not hesitate and immediately jump to the top of the hot song chart!
After Yang Dakun worked hard to get his song onto the hot song charts...
It's already climbed to number one on the hot song chart.
Yang Dakun's original expectation was simply to get the new song onto the hot song charts.
As for the top spot, that's something I never even considered.
So logically speaking...
Now that "The Past You" has reached the top of the trending songs chart, it seems to have no impact on Yang Dakun.
But the worst part is that there are very few new songs on the hot song charts now, or rather, only two in total.
Compared to "The You of the Past", Yang Dakun's new song is of much lower quality.
As the old saying goes, "Comparing people will only lead to ruin, and comparing goods will only lead to discarding them."
If it weren't for the excellent precedent set by "Once Upon a Time," Yang Dakun's new song might have received a lot of praise.
Unfortunately, he was unlucky and ran into such a formidable opponent.
Unsurprisingly, he was killed instantly by his opponent.
If you browse through the comments section of 'The Past You', you'll find it's full of positive reviews and very lively.
The comment section for Yang Dakun's new song is not only deserted, but also full of negative reviews.
