Tang Miaoyi and An Qiuying finally returned home. After feeding Da Mian, An Qiuying went into the kitchen to cook, completely oblivious to the outside world. She seemed in a very good mood.
As for Tang Miaoyi, after being half-forced by An Qiuying to drink a cup of ginger soup, returned to her room, turned on the computer, and watched the messages about "Fox" scroll by.
"The first second I heard this song, I favourited it immediately."
"TMY Global Support Club, a gathering place for fans, welcome to join the group chat: 854495780."
"This is electronic music. I don't know what kind of stuff I listened to before."
"Once "Fox" came out, I haven't heard another good electronic song since!!"
"Zoologist here, this song really uses the sound of a fox, probably the one on the cover."
The comments under the recommended video have accumulated a lot, and the number of views is also very gratifying, with rave reviews. Tang Miaoyi even saw a comment from her fan club.
...
..
.
Wait... WHAT?
"When did I have a fan club?" Tang Miaoyi was stunned when she saw the group's comment.
It was sent by a fan with the ID 'Huashan', and the number of comments and likes was as high as four digits.
Tang Miaoyi thought about it carefully and decided it was normal. Now that "Fox" has been promoted to Light Cloud's best position, and the name of TMY has officially spread in the electronic music circle, the creation of a fan group is normal.
Smiling, Tang Miaoyi's mood instantly brightened, she copied the group number in that comment, pasted it in her notes, then closed Light Cloud. She opened the communication software, found Light Cloud's music library reviewer named 'Yun Jie' and sent a message.
Tang Miaoyi did not find Yang He directly this time. After all, he is the director, so he must have a lot of work to do.
"Sensei TMY, Is there anything I can do to help you?" Yun Jie was still working overtime as usual and was online. Therefore, when Tang Miaoyi knocked on the message window, he sent a reply in seconds.
The efficiency was so fast that Tang Miaoyi couldn't help but wonder, was Yun Jie keeping an eye on her news all the time? Or did he just add her to the top of his priority list?
"It's about my copyright contract. According to the status of the e-mail, it has already been received, so this time I just want to confirm whether you have it." Tang Miaoyi wrote out a quick message.
"Yes, we have received it. It was signed by the front desk. Now we are making the final confirmation and formal signing. A copy will be sent back to you in about a week." Yun Jie put down his previous work and focused on her wholeheartedly. They were relying on TMY a lot, after all.
"You did, that's great..."
"By the way, Mr. TMY, we have another piece of good news to tell you. Today we updated the statistics data for all songs site-wide. Among them, the most important thing is that now "Fox" has entered the site's monthly list!"
That's right, after being promoted, "Fox" had been placed in front of every Light Cloud user, and it aroused an astonishing response and entered the monthly list after only 5 days.
It wasn't doing particularly well on the monthly list, however. These were songs that had been released weeks before her "Fox", so they had a massive headstart that was impossible to catch up to in a measly 5 days.
However, just the fact that her song was already on it was astonishing. The Rex's song "The Dodo" had been at the top of the weekly list for 23 days and had yet to break through!
Now "Fox" is indeed popular, and it is indeed becoming popular quickly, but it is one thing for many listeners to hear it, but is another for them to pay attention to the producer of the song.
Not everyone pays attention to who created the song they listened to. Even if many people are listening to the song of a popular artist, they might still take a long time to remember them. Until then, when someone mentions the author in front of him, they would be confused.
But still, Tang Miaoyi's Weibo has reached more than 1 million fans, and it is still increasing slowly, but it is not as fast as it was at the beginning. After that period of rapid growth, any other growth would seem small.
According to Yang He, this should have reached a bottleneck period.
But... In fact, the current 1 million is insanely good. As a complete newcomer, TMY has shown unprecedented popularity.
- - - - - - - - - -
Yang He had bigger issues at the moment.
For the sake of transparency, when Tang Miaoyi sent in her contract, she had sent in a picture of herself with it, and it had sent him reeling.
Because not only was TMY a teenager, she was a girl! The only thing rarer than a teenage producer was a female one.
And this TMY was both a teen and a female. If this was discovered, the internet would blow up!
Of course, he got all the executives involved with TMY into a meeting as soon as possible.
Immediately, a high-level executive suggested at the meeting to ask TMY for her opinion, and then thoroughly disclose the information to all electronic music fans. He has every reason to believe that TMY will stand at the top of the Chinese electronic music circle with that pioneering talent and appearance. It is not out of the question that she would dominate the music industry, and her age or gender would be no issue.
- - - - - - - - - -
"Are you sure?"
That's why Yun Jie asked now to see if she wanted to release the information.
However, it is absolutely impossible for Tang Miaoyi to change her opinion on this matter. After reading Yun Jie's message, she replied without hesitation, "I will not announce it. Not yet."
Yun Jie on the computer side just felt a little pity, "Well, we respect your choice..."
Tang Miaoyi, "Since, as you said, "Fox" has exploded in numbers and even made it to the top ten of the monthly chart, then I would like to ask first, how much money have I earned from this song so far?"
"Ah? How much money did you make?" Yun Jie was stunned by this reply and didn't know how to answer for a while.
He is only from the review department of Light Cloud, how could he know about the revenue of "Fox"?
But Yun Jie was a smart employee, so the first thing he did was...
...
..
.
Run to Yang He, of course!
In the end, when Yang He knew Yun Jie's intentions, he couldn't disagree with his decision, and took over, "Teacher TMY, your royalties so far have accumulated to 270,000¥ excluding taxes."
Although the financial department is responsible for the benefit of musicians, as a director, it is not difficult for Yang He to find out.
"What? There are two hundred and seventy thousand?" Tang Miaoyi was a little startled by this massive amount. What she was unaware of, was that for popular songs like "Fox", it was not uncommon to have such a large figure.
Unfortunately, this was the highest revenue period for "Fox", and it was unlikely to repeat.
For a streaming service like Light Cloud, any download is treated like a sale, so after the user buys it once, naturally there is no need to download it again. meaning that after this week, its growth would begin to slow, and eventually become minuscule.
In the streaming age, the more songs a musician releases the better, as they simply have more revenue streams.
And while she wasn't worried about "Fox" losing money anytime soon, the longer she waited to release a song, the worse both songs would perform in the end.
It all boils down to public opinion and trends. The longer she can extend the TMY and "Fox" hype, the better.
"I understand, thank you." Tang Miaoyi was not disappointed and thanked Yang He politely.
"By the way, if you're still short on money, I have an offer for you." Yang He felt it was a good time to mention what he had been working on, "It's Tianyou Entertainment's "Street Dance of China" theme song production. They're cooperating with Light Cloud and will select producers from us. And Tianyou has just chosen the producer they would like, and just informed us that you will be invited to be the chief producer..."
The show with the theme of pure hip-hop and street culture is a new type of program full of the dangers of the unknown. In her previous life, Tang Miaoyi was somewhat of a fan of "Street Dance of China".
It's just that she didn't expect that, as the initiator of this show, Tianyou Entertainment actually had a deal with Light Dance, and now they told her that she should be the head producer of the theme song.
"Why me? I'm a newcomer. Aren't there still a bunch of producers waiting?" Tang Miaoyi asked directly, "For example, The Rex, and such..."
"The show "Street Dance of China" has been in production for several years, but it has been suspended because of the music. They've been reluctant to use other producers because the current style of electronic music is generally the same.
But "Fox" is different, directly injecting a little vitality into this stale environment. Tianyou Entertainment should not be stingy with conditions." Yang He was a little nervous, he was a little worried that TMY would disagree.
- - - - - - - - - -
Tang Miaoyi agreed to hear them out. She was basically already convinced, but she didn't want to seem too desperate...
[Tianyou Entertainment - Chief Director of "Street Dance of China"; Zhang Yuan.]
She added the new contact that Yang He had sent to her as soon as it popped up.
After Tang Miaoyi let the other party pass, instead of making a long introduction, Zheng Yuan simply typed her a very short message
"5,500,000¥ one song."
"YES!!!!!!!!!!"
