"Almost forgot!"
Sun Zhennan slapped his head: "I have good news for you."
Chen Yao was eating breakfast and stuffed the bun into his mouth: "What's the news?"
Sun Zhennan said excitedly: "Universal Records contacted us and they are willing to negotiate with us about music copyright!"
Lin Yuhan smiled happily and said: "Really? Then will I be able to listen to Universal Music's music on Legend Music in the future?"
Universal Music Group is the largest music company in the world. Many domestic singers used to be artists of this company. This company controls the song copyrights of many stars.
In the past, Universal Records cooperated with Tencent. Only through Qgou Music, a subsidiary of Tencent, could you hear Universal¡¯s songs.
It is difficult for other domestic music software to obtain genuine music resources from Universal. When Chen Yao purchased genuine music from Universal, they refused to let go.
This time, they took the initiative to contact Legend, yes, took the initiative to contact Legend to talk about music copyright.
The reason why this happens is simple. As the number of users of Legendary Music increases, Universal Records begins to pay attention to this platform.
More importantly, Chen Yao guessed that Universal Music Group has taken a fancy to the legendary virtual singer, and there is great possibility of cooperation between the two parties.

The entrance of the coffee shop.
The sky blue Audi R8 slowly stopped. Chen Yao opened the door and got out of the car. Lin Yuhan followed. She also wanted to come over and see what the legendary president of Universal Records looked like.
Will he be more handsome than Chen Yao?
At the same time, a motorcade slowly drove over. The pearl white Rolls-Royce Phantom stopped in front of it. There were four Honda Acura Guards around the car, which looked very impressive.
The door of the Rolls-Royce Phantom opened, and a foreign man wearing gold-rimmed glasses got out of the car. He was tall and wearing a crisp gray suit.
He is the CEO of Universal Music Group, also known as CEO, Steven Beale.
Chen Yao asked her: "See it, isn't it handsome?"
"It's indeed handsome, but I still like domestic products." Lin Yuhan said with a smile.
"Chen, nice to meet you!" Steven took the initiative to come over and shake hands with Chen Yao with a sunny smile.
His Chinese is very blunt, and he probably can only speak this sentence.
Chen Yao shook hands with him: "Let's go in and talk."
Immediately, Chen Yao, Lin Yuhan, Steven and his Chinese translation assistant walked into the coffee shop.
Near the window, four people sat down.
Each ordered a cup of coffee.
Chen Yao looked at Steven opposite: "Just tell me, why are you looking for me?"
The female translator beside him was named Cai Xiaohong, and she translated Chen Yao¡¯s words to Steven.
Chen Yao suddenly came up with the idea of ??making a translation headset. With the legendary and powerful artificial intelligence technology, it would not be a problem to make the most powerful translation headset in the world.
Chen Yao understands English and can directly understand what Steven said.
Steven smiled and said: "Legend is an amazing company. I am excited that you have made the most powerful virtual singer in the world. At the same time, I also see the bright future of virtual singers. Universal Music I want to cooperate with you.¡±
Sure enough, it¡¯s for the virtual singer.
Chen Yao smiled and asked: "Tell me, how will we cooperate?"
The waiter came over with a tray and placed four cups of coffee on the table.
Steven took a sip of coffee and said slowly: "Universal Records has very excellent music producers, including lyrics, composers, arrangers, etc., plus your virtual singer, our cooperation can produce a lot of high-quality music .¡±
Lin Yuhan blinked with curious big eyes and said: "There are many real singers under Universal Records? Why are you looking for a virtual singer?"
Steven smiled, this cute girl didn¡¯t understand the value of virtual idols at all.
For real singers, Universal Music needs to share the copyright with the singer, but 100% of the revenue generated by the songs sung by the virtual singer belongs to Universal.
The virtual singer will not discuss copyright issues with the company, nor will he ask for a penny in compensation, nor does he need any company resources.
Reasonable and legal, be an ¡®unscrupulous boss¡¯.
Second, the virtual singer image will not collapse.
Once upon a time, Universal RecordsRecently, there was an artist who drove drunk and then assaulted a police officer, and was photographed by reporters, which caused his image to plummet, and he had to be hidden.
??The commercial value of the singers that Universal spent a lot of money and resources to cultivate has become 0.
Virtual singers do not have these problems, unless the company commits suicide and destroys it with its own hands.
But whether they are virtual singers or real singers, they have their own advantages. For Universal Music Company, real singers have encountered a big bottleneck.
Today¡¯s world has passed the peak period of the record industry. Today is the era of online media and digital music. It is a major trend for traditional record companies to engage in digital media.
Steven smiled and said: "I think virtual singers are a new continent. Yes, a new continent. It contains many treasures."
Chen Yao took a sip of coffee and said, "Cooperation is okay, but I also have to put forward a condition."
Steven said: "What conditions?"
Chen Yao said: "Legendary music requires genuine music resources from Universal Music."
What Universal needs is the post-development of the legendary virtual singer.
And legendary music needs real-life genuine music resources from Universal Music.
Many old singers from Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, and Malay have the copyrights for their classic songs sung by Universal Music Company.
During the peak period of the recording industry, Universal was very powerful and cultivated a large number of Chinese singers. Even if some singers are no longer alive, Universal still holds the music copyright for 50 years after their death.
As for the Internet copyright, Universal has sold it to Tencent. Of course, it is not permanent, but has a time limit.
If Legend Music Platform wants to become bigger and stronger, it must obtain genuine resources from Universal.
His request made Steven silent for a long time.
Chen Yao took a sip of cappuccino: "Mr. Steven, what you need is a legendary virtual idol, and what I need is your real-person copyright. Everyone gets what they need, it's fair, right?"
Steven said: "I have heard the songs sung by your company's virtual singer, and they all tend to be girlish. What about modern pop songs? Can you sing pop songs?"
Chen Yao snapped his fingers: "Absolutely, and Legend Company is not only powerful in Chinese voice technology, but also in English voice."
With that said, he turned on the legendary phone and asked Steven to turn on the Bluetooth function of the phone.
Immediately, Chen Yao transferred an English song to his mobile phone via Bluetooth. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
