Disaster Artist

Chapter 31 Warming Up
After the performance at the Kite Bar that night, the spread of the work quickly increased to 1.The next morning, the spread level has almost reached 3, and the obsession level is temporarily empty.

This work did not suddenly become popular due to unexpected factors like "Gaze" and was widely circulated.Shit luck doesn't happen every time.

Bai Zhe was not worried.He believes that with the quality of "Rust", it is only a matter of time before it reaches 20 points of virality, and the number of plays of the single is increasing dramatically every minute.

As of 2 o'clock this morning, it has been played nearly 3 times, with hundreds of comments, and the proportion of reposts and shares is exaggeratedly high.The spread rate is less than [-], which means that many people are listening to it repeatedly.

Compared with the first delegation, the feeling of holding the initiative in my hands is much better now.

3 points of obsession is more troublesome.He still hasn't figured out what happened to the Cyber ​​Confessor who contributed to his fascination last time. He sent a private message to the other party but there was no reply.

The same work will appear in various ways in the eyes of different people, and the creator himself cannot control it.

Whether or not three people will develop an unusual degree of obsession with "Rust" is impossible to force.

The next night, they performed again at the Kite Bar, singing twice more.

The number of customers in the small bar was three or four times that of last night, and there were dozens of people crowded around the small stage alone.When they finally roared together, the noise almost brought down the roof of the house.

After escaping from the bar, they drove a rented pickup truck to Sunset Plaza.

Sunset Plaza is an abandoned factory area on the edge of Kite Street. The original silicone doll processing factory has been demolished for six or seven years.

There are still pillars that have not been demolished on the large bare concrete floor, and strange-shaped weeds are growing out of the cracks.

At night, many people set up stalls here selling snacks, as well as daily necessities such as guns and ammunition.There are many people talking about love in the corner of the alley, both romantic and business.

When Moya was a child, she often brought Roger over to buy her junk food and she suffered from minor food poisoning many times.

They found a deserted place, set up their equipment and started singing.After singing, introduce yourself, and after the introduction, run away.

Not everyone can accept the rock genre.Their performance received a lot of applause, but two grumpy old men clenched their crowbars and looked unkindly towards them.

On the third day, they had just made an appointment to go to the Kite Bar tonight when something unexpected happened.

[My account has been blocked]

Moya posted a screenshot of his account being banned in the small group.

[Your account has been temporarily blocked due to suspected copyright infringement]

[The single "Rust" you released has been reported multiple times as suspected of plagiarism and infringement, and has been temporarily removed from the shelves. The platform is verifying it]

Bai Zhe's blood pressure soared.Someone is up to something.

Rogge: [Have you filed a complaint? 】

Moya: [I have appealed.Less than half an hour after it was unblocked, it was blocked again, and the new appeal has not been accepted.I don’t think it makes much sense]

Bai Zhe: [Who do you think it is? 】

Moya: [Luna Records]

Rogge: [Moon God]

As an important subsidiary of Eden Music, it is not easy for them to do some tricks through the platform.

Metal Kite, signed by Luna Records, is about to perform. At this time, the drummer who left the band suddenly explodes, which is a catastrophic marketing event for them.

If not handled properly, the band's related plans may be directly scrapped and all money lost.

They also guessed in advance that Luna Records might discover "Rust" and take some dirty tricks, but they didn't expect it would happen so quickly.

Bai Zhe tried searching on Eden Music. Not only the account's works, but also the information reprinted and commented by other users had been deleted.

Moya: [I received a message that Origin Records wanted to buy "Rust"]

This level of coincidence is unplayable.If Moya sells the song to Origin, it will probably be transferred to Luna on the same day, and it will be completely unclear after that.Rogge: [Let them go]

Moya: [I have already cursed for 200 words]

Bai Zhe: [Continue to appeal first, and we will post the music to other platforms.Luna is just a record company, they have no influence on other platforms]

Bai Zhe: [I will edit the scenes recorded in the past few days and post them on platforms such as Red Flash and Wetweet]

These applications are also products of the Eden Group, but at least they are not within the control of Luna Records.

Moya: [No!Why are you posting on these irrelevant platforms? 】

Entertainment platforms such as Red Flash also involve music, but music is by no means the protagonist.

If you want to become popular on Red Flash, instead of immersing yourself in composing music and practicing skills, the effect is better than wearing a weird decorative prosthetic body or wearing two less items.

Putting "Rust" on these platforms was too much for her mysophobia.

Rogge: [I think Bai Zhe’s approach is right.Make sure the work is published first, and you can’t be blocked so easily]

In this dispute, they must be the weak party, and the weak cannot lose their cool.

2:1, the vote passed.Although Moya felt a little unhappy, he still acquiesced to Bai Zhe's plan.

He first searched for himself on Red Flash and wetweet.There is not much relevant information, but there are indeed more than 100 videos and tweets about "Rust" that have not been deleted.

Red Flash is a comprehensive video platform that not only has Mengying, but also ordinary stereoscopic images and 2D short videos.

Bai Zhe didn't pay much attention to details. He used the video materials recorded during their rehearsals and performances, cut it into a 4-minute video in two hours, and added some special effects.

The majority of the shot is given to the drummer.In terms of visual effects, she also has the strongest appeal to the audience.

He uploaded the cut video to the group, and uploaded it to various platforms without giving Moya a chance to protest. The username was always Kite Street drummer Moya.

It didn’t take long for the video views and tweet views to slowly start to increase.

Moya: [The blockade has been lifted again, but the playback volume has increased very slowly]

Bai Zhe: [Your account should be restricted]

He couldn't help but feel a little irritated, and the shadow behind him became ferocious.Not only because the communication level is stuck at 11 and no longer increases, but also because the work that took so much time and effort to complete was trampled on at will.

That afternoon, Moya received a letter from his lawyer.

The plaintiffs are the trio of Metal Kite and Luna Records, claiming that the musical work "Rust" released by the defendant plagiarized "Chasing the Wind" composed by the Metal Kite band.The defendant is required to remove the work from all public platforms, stop infringement, compensate for losses, and apologize to the plaintiff.

Bai Zhe had heard about such dirty tactics and malicious lawsuits in the news.

It is impossible for Luna Records to win this lawsuit. They just want to drag their side into the quagmire through litigation and use the money and time consumed by the lawsuit to bring down their side.

Moreover, during the litigation, the involved "Rust" could not continue to be distributed normally.

Rogge: [Boss Lawrence sent me a message, suggesting that we’d better not go to the bar to perform tonight]

The situation took a turn for the worse.

A hot burning feeling surged out of Bai Zhe's heart.It felt dangerous and exciting.

He believed the same was true for Moya and Rogge.People who can mix together will have some similarities.

Bai Zhe: [Let’s continue acting]

Moya: [Don’t steal my lines, you’re just a bassist]

　The cat at home has become lawless.Because Hua Zi didn't want to play with it, he came over and chewed my jio, then ran away after chewing it.
