The internal strife within Ren Ya Studio will not end anytime soon.
Competition is fiercest for the female lead role, which has the heaviest screen time. The second female lead, male lead, and second male lead are also highly sought after.
As the instigator of this incident, Gu Mo did not know that Ren Ya, a bystander, listened to his advice and cut the Gordian knot, deciding on a film and television project in a very short time, and also revitalized the studio's contracted artists.
Now he lives for himself.
We strive to complete the recording and release of the new album in the shortest possible time. However, there is still a huge problem, which is lack of money.
Without absorbing external funds, he still has a little money to record a complete album.
But there is still enough money to record two songs.
"Sister Li, our studio is a startup, so the valuation is definitely low. So, we can't bring back some big shareholders just to record a new album.
As the saying goes, when you are rich, you use firepower coverage, and when you are poor, you use tactics to infiltrate.
When we are poor, we must think of change. How about using a small amount to achieve a big outcome?"
Li Xiaoli has also had a headache these days.
The main reason was that she had never fought such a difficult battle with Ling Fei before.
"How do you say that?"
“Isn’t there a classic way to play in real estate projects?
First get the land, then sign a loan from the bank to build the house.
After laying the foundation, you can start pre-sales of the units. Then, you work with real estate agencies and hire a group of real estate agents to create a sign of hot sales, which will attract serious buyers.
Under normal circumstances, pre-sale housing that is not left unfinished is a win-win situation.
Real estate developers make money, banks gain long-term benefits from the project, and the amount paid by pre-sale customers is much lower than that of normal home buyers."
Li Xiaoli's eyes lit up when she heard that.
She seemed to understand what Gu Mo meant.
"Shall we also release a new album 'off-plan'?"
"Yes, compared to pre-sale real estate, there's another prerequisite for us to get customers to buy our new album. That is, the album's title track, which is released in the first batch, must be of high quality.
It’s not enough for my fans to pay for it, the general public must also like it.”
At this stage, Gu Mo seems to have a lot of fans, but most of them are variety show fans or superficial fans.
Once the hype dies down, these fans may change their minds, not to mention asking them to spend real money to buy albums to support Gu Mo.
It would be great if you could post a few comments in the live broadcast room to support or like Gu Mo, and turn on the free TV to show your support.
Instead of spending money on albums, you might as well buy a few cups of milk tea or some ice cream to cool off.
"Therefore, the prerequisite for the success of the new album pre-sale is that the quality of my work needs to be outstanding."
"I believe you." Li Xiaoli said without hesitation.
She trusts Gu Mo unconditionally.
Because the quality of the songs that Gu Mo has created at this stage are very good.
The song "Because of Love" made her even more amazed.
“Thank you Sister Li for your trust, I plan to record two songs first.
In my opinion, if my new album only has these two songs, and the remaining ten songs are all mediocre, it would not be a loss to buy them in full."
When Li Xiaoli heard this, she became more confident: "I'm looking forward to your work."
“After I finish these two songs, the rest will be left to you, Sister Li.
Take these two songs and connect with the two major music platforms to determine which one will exclusively release them on! And do your utmost to secure the greatest benefits for us."
"No problem." Li Xiaoli had never been involved in the 'new album pre-sale' aspect of things before, but she knew how to deal with the platform.
It's nothing more than replacing the film and television platform of Ling Fei's era with the music platform of Gu Mo's era.
"By the way, Sister Li, I have another idea.
That is, many young people like new things and exclusivity.
Our new album, pre-sale housing, is a relatively new thing.
As for exclusivity, users who purchase our pre-sale new album can obtain a series of exclusive rights.
Let me give you an example. If you buy a digital album of mine, you will get an exclusive nameplate and automatically get a chance to win a prize.
You will have a chance to win tickets to my new album fan meeting, a signed physical album or a signed photo. You will also get exclusive avatar pendants, exclusive APP icons, exclusive startup pictures, etc.
I even think it would be possible to have an 'unlock' feature.
As long as the pre-sale amount reaches the target, the new song will be unlocked in advance.
What do you think?
Just when Gu Mo was expecting praise.
Li Xiaoli spoke: "Gu Mo, just forget all this.
Because you can be a singer, a comedian, an actor or an artist, but you cannot be a capitalist who will do anything to make money.
If that happens, your work will become like a financial product, not pure enough.”
"From today on, you need to remember that these ideas are all my own.
If necessary, I might hint that the music platforms should take the blame. After all, as music platforms, the most important thing for them is whether the singer's new album can make money.
At the same time, it’s large in size, so I’m not afraid of being criticized.”
Having his mind purified, 'good boy Gu Mo' immediately asked without hesitation, "Sister Li, I heard that someone is pre-selling a new album, and after the pre-sale amount reaches the target, they will unlock a new single. Is that true?"
Li Xiaoli immediately understood Gu Mo's subconscious meaning: "It could be true. I will 'ask' the music platform when the time comes."
“Sister Li, I have discussed this privately with Brother Zhang before.
As soon as I decide which platform to release my new album on, their song "Because of Love" will be officially released."
"This is a good thing, and it's also a very good bargaining chip!" Li Xiaoli was very happy. Happiness came a little suddenly.
Being able to attract a big movie actor and a well-known actress to help out, coupled with the current popularity of "Because of Love", it is conservatively possible to increase the remuneration by millions.
Gu Mo continued, "Also, I invited Brother Zhang and his wife to be the male and female leads in the MV for my song 'Not That Simple'.
That's a plus, right?
If I ask Ren Ya to guest star in my new album's music video, will that give me extra leverage in negotiations? "
To put it bluntly, what he said was asking whether he could get extra money from the platform!
"Will Ren Ya agree?" Li Xiaoli was a little skeptical.
In her opinion, there should be no problem for normal business cooperation between Ren Ya and Gu Mo, but it would be a bit difficult to get a top actress to guest star in the MV for free.
"Sister Li, isn't it easy to confirm whether she agrees or not?"
Gu Mo took out his cell phone, found Ren Ya's number and called her.
“Ren Ya, I’m preparing a new album.
Excellent MV content is an extension of the life essence of a song.
So, I would like to invite you to be the female lead in the MV."
