That night, Feng Delun followed Liu Hai to Liu Hai's house. When Liu Hai opened the door, Feng Delun saw that Liu Hai's house was a three-bedroom apartment and said," Haizi, take a look. You don't have money, but you live in such a good home. Haizi, something's wrong. There must be a problem."
Brother De, what's the problem?" Liu Hai was confused by Feng Delun's question.
"Take a look. It's so warm and romantic. There's no female owner. I won't believe it even if you beat me to death."
"Brother De, why don't you take a look? These are all new. Besides, can't I live in a more cozy place?”Liu Hai didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he had to admire Brother De's foresight. At this moment, Liu Hai's mind flashed with the scene of Gao Min meeting at home this morning, bumping into each other, and then lying on the ground and smiling bitterly at each other.
"Oh, that's true! "It's new. Forget it. I don't care if it's warm or not. Quick, bring me the song. Let me take a look." Feng Delun pushed his bangs with his hand and walked to the inner bedroom.
When Liu Hai took out the original manuscript from the drawer, Feng Delun hurriedly snatched it from Liu Hai's hand. Just as Liu Hai said, every song was a classic. After Feng Delun finished reading it, he hurriedly took the manuscript and left. At the bar, Chen Silin was still waiting for his reply.
Liu Hai watched as Feng Delun left. He smiled and shook his head before closing the door. He didn't blame Feng Delun for being realistic. This was how the world was. Business was business, and love was love. Who would invest in something that you were not confident in?
However, just as Liu Hai turned around, he suddenly thought of a problem, which was the problem of pirated copies. Liu Hai knew how terrifying pirated copies were. He quickly walked to the computer, turned it on, and searched for relevant content. It turned out that in December 1994, the country had implemented the "Trial Method for the voluntary registration of works", which had come into effect on January 1, 1995.
Music copyright refers to the rights enjoyed by the creator of a musical work according to law. It mainly included the performance right, reproduction right, and broadcasting right of a musical work. The protection period of the music copyright stipulated by the copyright law referred to the period of protection of the exclusive rights of the composer, composer, adaptation, translation, and other creators of the musical work. The protection period ends on December 31, 50 years after the author's death. The deadline for the collaboration was December 31, 50 years after the death of the last author. Music works that had passed the protection period could be used free of charge, but the author's right of signature, the right to protect the integrity of the work, the right to modify, and other personal rights were forever protected.
However, the copyright application had to be applied for at the copyright office in Xizhimen. This way, Liu Hai missed the era when the Internet was popular. At that time, he could register online without going out. However, Liu Hai still downloaded the form from the Internet and carefully filled in the contents. This time, Liu Hai filled in 18 songs, including three songs for Faye Wong, Fatty, and Zhang Haiyan. The remaining 15 songs were the songs that Liu Hai was preparing to release and sing.
It was already past five o'clock in the afternoon when he returned from the bar. However, filling out the application form and the electronic version of the song kept Liu Hai busy until around eleven o'clock. Liu Hai printed out a total of five sets of information and prepared to register the next morning.
Of course, Liu Hai had not forgotten his morning and evening cultivation habits. After preparing the materials, he walked to the balcony. The stars were especially bright tonight. The night breeze that blew in through the open window made Liu Hai feel a little relaxed. Liu Hai smiled and spread his legs to a position where they were at shoulder length. His legs were slightly bent to about 90 degrees. He quietly breathed in and out. In a moment, he entered a space of selflessness and felt the flow of breath in his meridians.
Liu Hai could clearly feel that some of the tiny breath particles were attached to his meridians and became part of them. Actually, Liu Hai had accidentally walked on the right path of cultivation. Liu Hai had only studied with his master for more than two months and had never seen him again. For more than three years, Liu Hai had been the only one who had figured out the cultivation method in his mind. If his master was still around, he would definitely tell him. The current price was the small circulation period, which was the cultivation period. If Liu Hai didn't understand the meaning of the endurance of a plastic bag and a glass bottle, he would definitely continue to draw in Qi, which would eventually cause his body to explode and die.
Liu Hai's stance was the same as an ordinary horse stance. The only difference was that Liu Hai's stance was both a body and qi training technique.
The next day, Liu Hai came back from his morning exercise. After washing up, he put on some formal clothes and went straight to the copyright office. The copyright office was still relatively simple, and the procedures were very simple. Fortunately, Liu Hai was very accurate at home. In less than an hour, the registration was completed. However, the copyright certificate would only be obtained a week later because they had to gather experts to review it once a week.
Tomorrow, Liu Hai would return to the television station. He would be busy for the next ten days. Liu Hai was prepared to tour Beijing in the 1990s.
Beijing in the 1990s was a quaint city. The capital city had a thousand years of cultural heritage. Every place had one or more stories that were spread among the original residents. Liu Hai had always felt that the development of the capital city should take a historical path and that urban planning should not add modern colors. For example, London in the United Kingdom and Washington in the United States. The historical characteristics of these cities were eternal scenery. They were places that people from all over the world fought to see. However, with the development of the past few years, the capital had lost its original elegance, causing the entire city to look neither ancient nor modern.
When Liu Hai walked out of Dazhalan Street, it was already past midnight. Liu Hai did not intend to buy anything. He just wanted to walk around and touch the buildings that had left behind history. He wanted to understand the stories he had heard. Some places were obviously scarred by the war. After hundreds of years of baptism, the city was still prosperous.
The hot weather made the number of pedestrians on the streets dwindle. The tourists who came from all over the world had returned to the hotel for lunch break. Liu Hai went to a coffee shop that was somewhat special. He ordered a cup of coffee and sat by the window, watching the people coming and going on the street. He had never been so leisurely in his previous life. In that life, he had always been busy with tomorrow's life. He had never sat in one place without a worry and looked at the sky and the earth.
A phone call broke the silence of the coffee shop. The customers turned to look at him, but they also quickly turned their heads and drank their loneliness. Liu Hai looked at the number and saw that it was an unfamiliar number. Was it from the television station or someone else? Liu Min didn't know either, because only a few people knew his phone number.
"Hello, I'm Liu Hai."
" Liu Hai, right? My surname is Jiang. I wonder if Brother Liu has time now. I want to talk to you about something." A middle-aged man's voice came from the phone.
Liu Hai thought for a long time, but he could not remember anyone with the surname Jiang. After thinking for a while, he said," Alright, I'm at a cafe called…Wait, let me ask the name of this cafe," Liu Hai replied after asking the waiter for the name of the cafe.
About twenty minutes later, Liu Hai saw a middle-aged man walking towards him. He smiled at him and said," Hello, Brother Liu. I'm Jiang Mingshan, an agent from Blue Arrow Records."
" Hello, Mr. Jiang. I'm Liu Hai." Liu Hai stood up and shook hands with Jiang Mingshan. However, when Liu Hai heard that it was from Blue Arrow, he thought of Zhao Xinhai. Could it be that he sent someone again?
"Brother Jiang, what would you like to drink?"
"Just a cup of green tea. I don't like coffee."
After the waiter served the tea, they chatted for a while. Liu Hai must have known that this man surnamed Jiang was looking for him because of the Blue Arrow Record Company. Liu Hai clearly remembered that Zhao Xinhai's manager from Blue Arrow Record Company came to the bar to ask him for a song, but he remembered that he had already said that he would not buy the song, but…
Jiang Mingshan had been observing Liu Hai while drinking tea. When he arrived, Fang Cuntian had told him that he had to buy Liu Hai's song because he had seen Liu Hai sing " My Future Is Not a Dream " during the auditions on television. It was being sung all over the streets now. Coincidentally, his album was missing a title song, so Fang Cuntian had his eyes on Liu Hai's song. He had heard about Liu Hai's matter through his connections. She felt that it was easy to ask him for a song, so she arranged for Jiang Mingshan to meet Liu Hai to discuss the transfer of the song.
"Brother Liu, I won't beat around the bush. I'm here on behalf of our company's young chairman. I want Brother Liu to give me the right to sing the song you wrote,"
" Brother Jiang, I won't sell my songs, so..." Liu Hai let out a long sigh when he heard that he was here to ask him to sing a song. To be honest, he didn't want to offend this company. When he was free, he also learned about the scale of these record companies and film companies on the computer. This Blue Arrow Record Company was indeed a behemoth, and Liu Hai couldn't shake it.
"You don't know that the person who asked you to sing is the son of the chairman of Blue Arrow Records. If you can part with him, it'll be good for you. If one day you can't solve your problems in the entertainment industry, you can look for our Young Chairman.”
" Brother Jiang, it's not that I don't want to give it to you, but I'm currently preparing an album, so..." Liu Hai said very tactfully. He did not have the ability at the moment, so he could only lower his stance.
"This…this…Mr. Liu, is there really no way out?”Jiang Mingshan originally thought that this matter was a sure thing. Even if he didn't mention Young Master Dong's name and mentioned Blue Arrow Records, Liu Hai wouldn't have rejected him. At this moment, he was a little unhappy. He didn't expect Liu Hai to be someone who didn't deserve praise. A newcomer was still so arrogant. He even said," My song won't be sold." There was nothing in this world that couldn't be solved with money. He threw money at him, so he continued,
" 10,000 yuan…" Jiang Mingshan stared at Liu Hai with one hand holding a cup of tea. Seeing that Liu Hai didn't say anything, he continued,"Twenty thousand yuan…"
" Mr. Jiang, this isn't about money. This is my principle. I've never come to buy songs, and it's not that I don't want to give them to you all. Before this, several other companies have come to ask, but I rejected them all. So, Mr. Jiang, please don't make things difficult for me," Liu Hai said calmly, suppressing the anger in his heart. However, this Jiang guy had called his brother a mister, and his happiness this morning had ruined everything.
"Is there really no chance of cooperation? "Why don't we sign a contract with you after the competition?" Jiang Mingshan saw that the matter of the song had fallen through, so he changed the topic to seduce Liu Hai. As long as Liu Hai signed under the company's name, he could do whatever he wanted.
"Thank you for your love, Mr. Jiang, but I won't sign with any other company. Although I admire your company and really want to be a singer under your company, I won't sign with any other company, so Mr. Jiang, don't make things difficult for me…"
Jiang Mingshan looked embarrassed and angry. He put down a big note and left after glancing at Liu Hai. He didn't even say a word to Liu Hai.
Liu Hai didn't stand up to see him off. He just watched him walk out of the shop silently. Liu Hai shook his head with a bitter smile.
