Faye Wong sang Legend with Li Jian's permission, but was sued by the copyright party. What happened?

In 21, with Li Jian's consent, Faye Wong sang Legend in the Spring Festival Evening. Unexpectedly, after singing this song, Faye Wong was taken to court and claimed 3 million yuan, because Li Jian sold the copyright of this song to Sun Yongzhi when the song was not popular, and Sun Yongzhi wanted to make some money, so he sued Faye Wong.

Li Jian is a famous singer in China now, but he was also a poor boy. Li Jian was originally a student in Tsinghua University. After graduating from college, he worked as a network engineer. Although his work was good, he was not happy because his dream was to become a musician.

Later, Lu Gengxu, a classmate, invited him to make music together. He agreed without hesitation, and the group "Shui Mu Nianhua" was born. After the birth of the group, they created a song "I have you all my life" and became famous. However, the good times didn't last long. After Shui Mu became popular, Li Jian and Lu Gengxu had different ideas about the band's business philosophy. Lu Gengxu wanted to take the rock route, while Li Jian liked folk songs, so they didn't continue to cooperate, but parted ways.

After that, Li Jian had no income and had a hard time for several years. In those years, he was alone in the rental house to concentrate on his creation, just waiting for the day when he became popular. During that time, Li Jian also wrote many songs, but none of them were recognized by the market. And Li Jian's classic "Legend" was written at this time, because he read a novel, and this song is what he felt.

Although Li Jian's songs didn't catch fire at that time, he gained a superstar fan, Faye Wong. Faye Wong liked Li Jian's songs very much and bought many of his albums. Later, introduced by a friend, Faye Wong and Li Jian met, and Faye Wong suggested that Li Jian hold a concert, and she would definitely join in. In 28, Li Jian gave a small concert, and Faye Wong really went to help out. At that concert, all his songs were prepared for Faye Wong. Because of this, Faye Wong also thanked Li Jian.

In p>21, Faye Wong was invited to the Spring Festival Gala, and she wanted to sing Li Jian's Legend, which was also a kind of gratitude to Li Jian. So she called Li Jian and asked if she could sing his songs. Li Jian said cheerfully, "Sure, just sing!"

So there was the Faye Wong version of Legend. Strangely, after Faye Wong sang it, it immediately became a hit, ranking first in many music websites. This shows the strength of Tianhou. If Li Jian can't sing it, she will become a hit as soon as she sings it. After The Legend became a hit, Faye Wong sang this song many times in his concert. Faye Wong's ethereal voice was loved by many fans.

But not long after, something unexpected happened to Faye Wong, that is, she was sued for infringement. Just after Wang Fei gave a concert, Faye Wong received a letter from a lawyer, who accused her of copyright infringement and demanded compensation of 3 million yuan.

Faye Wong was puzzled at that time. She thought that she had obtained Li Jian's consent. Why was she accused of infringement? She subconsciously thought that Li Jian was up to something. So Faye Wong immediately called Li Jian and asked him, "What do you mean?

unknown so, Li Jian, asked her what happened, and Faye Wong told him about the infringement. At this moment, Li Jiancai remembered that he had sold the copyright of Legend to Sun Yongzhi in exchange for some living expenses, and he must be the one who sued Faye Wong. At this moment, Wang Feicai understood what was going on. Naturally, he didn't blame Li Jian, so he asked a lawyer to deal with the lawsuit later.

It is said that although Sun Yongzhi sued Faye Wong, he didn't take advantage of it himself, but he lost all his money. Because Wang Fei gave 1 concerts, each concert paid 225 yuan, and finally he lost more than 2 yuan. However, you should know that Sun Yongzhi spent more than 3, yuan just asking a lawyer to file a lawsuit, and the money he lost was not enough to file a lawsuit. It was really thankless.

In fact, it seems that what Sun Yongzhi did was a lose-lose. He affected Faye Wong's reputation and the copyright of Legend, and at the same time he lost money. Personally, I think there is a better way to deal with this matter, that is, Sun Yongzhi sells the copyright of Legend to Faye Wong, so that he can make a lot of money and don't have to be infringed by others. And Faye Wong can continue to sing this song, and continue to give wonderful songs to fans.

Think about the rising sun's cover of Wang Feng's "In Spring". Wang Feng's song, which had not been popular for many years, was immediately sung, and Wang Feng's fame rose with it.

Later, Wang Feng saw that the rising sun masculine earned a lot of money, and because of infringement, he didn't allow them to sing this song. Later, the popularity of "In Spring" also declined, and it has been forgotten by people until now. And Wang Feng from this matter, oneself also didn't get benefits, might as well be a accommodate them, let them go on singing.

There are a lot of cover stories in the entertainment circle. Personally, I think Sun Yongzhi really doesn't need to be so serious. After all, Legend was sung by Faye Wong. If she stops singing, the song is likely to be buried. Classics are sung. If no one sings, even the best songs will be forgotten.
