Chapter 90 You disappoint me!
"Well, you were the only one who believed in me and was willing to pay to start a music studio with me."
"I just came back from outside at that time, and we met by playing music together. Brother Yang, you are very good at playing the electronic organ and guitar."
Han Yang let out a long breath, his expression showing a little helplessness and guilt, "Brother Yang, I'm sorry for you. I worked hard for several years but failed to help you make money."
"Don't say that, Brother Yang. Didn't you also abandon your family and business and sell everything you had to start this studio? I heard that the money you paid was the bride price for a girl."
"Hey, don't mention it. It's so embarrassing. If nothing unexpected happened, my son would have been in kindergarten. Who would have thought that the girl's family would suddenly change their minds and increase the 60,000 yuan betrothal gift to 88,000 yuan? I'm so angry."
Han Yang said, blowing out another puff of smoke, "Do you know, Shao Yu, my parents are farmers. They have worked hard all their lives to earn money. The 60,000 yuan betrothal gift is their life savings."
"They forced my parents to borrow money that day! Otherwise, this marriage would not be possible."
"I was so angry that I didn't want to get married. I still have a deposit of 1,000 yuan to the hotel."
"This money was all I had when I started Tianhai Music."
"In fact, the 40,000 yuan of the song 'Miss Dong' that I bought from Xiao Ge'er was borrowed from someone else. Did you know that?"
Zhang Shaoyu nodded.
He remembered clearly that Han Yang only had 10,000 yuan in his hand at the time, and he collected the remaining 40,000 yuan by calling around in the next two days.
Han Yang continued, "At first, I thought Xiao Ge'er was just a young man, like a student, who I could manipulate. I even thought about giving him this song and using it for my own benefit."
Zhang Shaoyu smiled and agreed, "But it's worth it, isn't it? It feels great to become famous overnight, right?"
"Yes. That's what I noticed at the beginning. I didn't expect that although he is young, he is so smart. He even registered the copyright in advance! And it's online. He has such great power!"
Han Yang smiled bitterly at this time, "You don't know, I was out there at the time, and I made at least 20 calls to my sister, other relatives, former classmates, and even students' parents, before I borrowed the remaining 40,000 yuan."
"Brother Yang, we have made it through. There will be rainbows after all the storms."
Zhang Shaoyu saw that he was speaking with sadness, so he patted him on the shoulder and even said something positive.
Han Yang waved the hand holding the cigarette, indicating that Zhang Shaoyu didn't need to comfort him.
"In fact, in my eyes, this song is really ordinary. Isn't it just a catchy song? It doesn't have the meaning of the songs I wrote! But Xiaoge is so popular on the Internet. I am willing to spend so much money and be a sucker. The main reason is that I value the promotion he gave me behind the scenes."
"Yes, Xiao Ge'er's hype on the Internet was too intense. The line 'Falling in love with a wild horse means there is no grassland at home' directly became popular on the entire Internet. Thanks to Xiao Ge'er for his help."
"Shao Yu, now besides Xiao Ge'er, I still need your help."
Zhang Shaoyu waved his hand at this time. After listening to Han Yang's tear-jerking stories, he said cheerfully: "Okay, Brother Yang, I understand what you mean. Just tell me what you need me to do. As a brother, I will go through fire and water for you."
"I want you to give me the song that Xiao Ge'er wrote last night!"
"No."
Zhang Shaoyu said without hesitation, "Brother Yang, I can give you a piece of my flesh if you want, but this matter is not negotiable."
Han Yang wouldn't talk to him so much for no reason.
He had anticipated this.
They are all experienced Chinese medicine practitioners, they won’t brag for no reason!
But I didn’t expect that it was actually because of this song!
Thinking of this, Zhang Shaoyu was speechless.
Isn’t Han Yang too greedy?
Not satisfied at all.
Having tasted the sweetness of this good thing, now it’s Zhang Shaoyu’s turn, right?
"Shao Yu! I've signed with an agency! The company will further promote me, and I'll be a top singer soon!"
"But I still need a hit song to gain a foothold in the company and become famous in the market. Do you understand me?" "We are good brothers. I don't want to go to Xiao Ge'er and buy it from him. That would hurt our relationship. I hope you can give it to me on your own initiative."
"From now on, I will use all my resources to fully support you in your rise to the top! If there are any more good works, I promise not to compete with you!"
"No matter how much this song costs, I will personally give you an extra 20,000 yuan to compensate you, and all the shares of [Tianhai Music] will also belong to you. How about that?"
Han Yang continued to chatter on and on, playing the emotional card.
Zhang Shaoyu was silent for a while and didn't say anything.
Seeing that Zhang Shaoyu was still indifferent, he became a little annoyed, and then dropped a bombshell.
"It's no use if you don't agree. I recorded this song overnight and released it first."
"what?!"
Han Yang took out his cell phone and played a demo he had recorded overnight.
Then he opened the web version of Weibo, which showed the softness of his main business:
[Hello everyone, I am Han Yang. My new song "Paper is Short, Love is Long" has been released on major platforms. Welcome everyone to listen to it first. 】
There is even a link to the song that can be listened to online at the end of the Weibo post!
Seeing this, Zhang Shaoyu stood up suddenly, snatched the phone from his hand, and carefully confirmed it!
Then, Zhang Shaoyu suddenly grabbed Han Yang's collar and questioned loudly.
"What are you doing! You are infringing on someone's rights! Infringement! Do you know that?!"
"I don't care whether Xiao Ge'er has the copyright or not. I don't need to rely on his traffic to promote my products. He has to sell it now! He has to sell it whether he wants to or not! Do you understand?"
Han Yang snorted coldly: "I am not afraid of lawsuits now. The more lawsuits I have, the less afraid I am. This is just a good opportunity to increase my popularity!"
Zhang Shaoyu said nothing at this time, threw his mobile phone on the sofa, walked out of the private room angrily, and hurriedly came to Yang Xiao with a sad face.
Yang Xiao smiled and said, "What's wrong with you? You look like an eggplant hit by frost."
"Xiao brother, you are still laughing, our house has been robbed!"
After Zhang Shaoyu finished speaking, he found the Weibo post about Han Yang’s new song on his phone.
Less than an hour after it was published!
Even in the lyricist column, he shamelessly wrote the word "time"!
It seems like they are trying to take advantage of Yang Xiao's popularity.
Han Yang followed into the private room at this time.
Yang Xiao had a gloomy face, and it was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry. He said to Han Yang calmly, "Give me an explanation."
Han Yang said in an earnest tone: "Xiao Ge'er, please continue to sell this song to me."
Yang Xiao sneered: "Haha, haven't you already got it and published it? Do you still need to ask me for my opinion?"
"Does it make any difference to you whether this song is for me or Shao Yu?"
Han Yang ignored the sarcasm in Yang Xiao's words, and poured a cup of tea. He came to Yang Xiao, as if to apologize, and said with a smile, "Xiao brother, I will add 5 yuan to your price for this song. Are you satisfied?"
When he said this, he seemed to think that Yang Xiao would definitely care and he felt confident of winning.
"For me now, it's not about money, but about you disappointing me!"
Yang Xiao shook his head and did not take the cup of tea from him. Instead, he stared at him, which made Han Yang feel a little uneasy.
"It seems that you are really drifting."
