突然想起这篇新闻，就把它翻了出来 2010～2017要发十张专辑， 目前已经发了五张(TII、Michael、Immortal、Bad25、Xscape) Immortal不确定算不算在内 剩下的三年会再发五张？太密集了吧... ※ 引述《ChesterB (很难想)》之铭言： : http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/16/arts/music/16jackson.html : Michael Jackson’s Estate Signs Sweeping Contract : !!!!!惊叹号不够用 翻个大意 印象之前是说MJ跟钱尼合约是到今年还明年 : Nine months after Michael Jackson’s death, his estate has signed one of the : biggest recording contracts in history, giving Sony, Mr. Jackson’s longtime : label, the rights to sell his back catalog and draw on a large vault of : unheard recordings. : MJ遗产公司 在MJ死後九个月 跟MJ长期的唱片公司钱尼签下音乐史上最惊人的合约 : $ONY能发行MJ所有没发行过新歌的权利 : Michael Jackson during a concert in Vienna in 1997. Mr. Jackson, who died in : June at 50, was the top-selling artist in the United States last year. : MJ是去年全美销量最好的歌手 : The deal, for about 10 recordings through 2017, will guarantee the Jackson : estate up to $250 million in advances and other payments and offer an : especially high royalty rate for sales both inside and outside the United : States, according to people with knowledge of the contract who spoke : anonymously because they were not authorized to speak about it publicly. : 这合约将签到2017年!! 包括十张专辑!!!! 保障了MJ遗产公司两亿五千万的预付款!!!!!!! : 而在美国和国际版税还会另外有高额收入 (遗产执行人抽成赚死) : It also allows Sony and the estate to collaborate on a wide range of : lucrative licensing arrangements, like the use of Jackson music for films, : television and stage shows and lines of memorabilia that will be limited only : by the imagination of the estate and the demand of a hungry worldwide market. : 同时同意$ONY能够和各项产业合作 像是把MJ的歌用在电影 电视 舞台剧 纪念品 : 因为全世界现在都疯狂想要MJ相关的东西 : “We think that recordings will always be an important part of the estate,” : John Branca, an entertainment lawyer who is one of the estate’s executors, : said in an interview on Monday. “New generations of kids are discovering : Michael.” : John Brance在本周一的访问说 那些新专辑是遗产中很重要的一部分 新一代的小孩 : 将会重新发现MJ : “A lot of the people that went to see ‘This Is It’ were families,” he : added, referring to the Jackson concert film released in October. “ ‘This : Is It’ was one of the few films allowed into China. So we think there are : growing and untapped markets for Michael’s music.” : 去看TII很多是家庭 也是少数杀入大陆市场的电影 我想MJ的音乐市场价值水涨船高 : The first recording covered by the new contract is the “This Is It” : soundtrack, released last year, and Sony plans a new album of unreleased : recordings for November. : 第一张合约包含的专辑是TII的原声带 去年发行的 钱尼打算在今年十一月发行新专辑!!! : Sony’s contract is a bet on the continued appeal of Mr. Jackson, whose sales : spiked after his death in June at the age of 50. With overall record sales on : a decade-long plunge, mega-deals like this one have become rare, and Mr. : Branca said the deal “exceeds all previous industry benchmarks.” Five years : ago Bruce Springsteen signed a deal with Sony worth a reported $110 million, : and in 2008 Live Nation and Jay-Z struck a $150 million deal for recordings, : concert tours and other rights. : 钱尼的赌注是看好 MJ过世後疯狂的CD销量 像这样的好交易可是很少见的= = : Branca说 这次的交易是打破音乐史纪录 五年前Bruce Springsteen跟钱尼签了一亿一千万 : 08年Live Nation和Jay-Z签了一亿五千万的唱片合约和巡回演唱权 : Demand for Jackson music has leveled off after the initial rush — in the : weeks after his death Sony scrambled to replenish retailers’ stock of any : and all Jackson titles — but remains high. Last year Mr. Jackson was the : biggest-selling artist in the United States by a wide margin, with 8.3 : million combined album sales and 12.4 million downloads of single tracks, : according to Nielsen SoundScan. Mr. Branca said that since his death Mr. : Jackson has sold more than 31 million albums, about two-thirds of them : outside the United States. : 这段 MJ唱片去年卖翻 美国卖了八百三十万张 一千两百四十万次下载 : Nielson统计在去年就卖了三千一百万张 2/3是在美国境外卖的 : But as record sales have tapered off over the last decade, licensing has : emerged as the biggest growth area for revenue from recorded music. And given : the success of the Beatles and the Elvis Presley estate in reissuing and : repackaging old albums as well as finding new uses for their music — like “ : Love,” the Beatles’ hit theatrical show by Cirque du Soleil — it is not : hard to imagine the direction that the Jackson estate might take in using old : recordings in new ways. : 有鉴於像猫王和披头四重发专辑都卖很好 披头四还在太阳马戏团有秀 : MJ遗产公司也考虑拿旧唱片做新用途 : “It’s not just a record deal,” said Rob Stringer, chairman of the : Columbia/Epic Label Group, a Sony division. “We’re not just basing this on : how many CDs we sell or how many downloads. There are also audio rights for : theater, movies, computer games. I don’t know how an audio soundtrack will : be used in 2017, but you’ve got to bet on Michael Jackson in any new : platform.” : 钱尼底下Epic分布的老板说 这不只只是个唱片合约 我们不只是关心唱片卖多少 : 下载量有多少 我们还有权利把音乐用在电影 电动游乐器材 : 我不知道2017年音乐会被怎麽使用 但你可以猜想MJ到时绝对有新的平台 : 看完新闻不知该喜还该悲 : 喜的是果然是King 干甚麽都破纪录 Branca真的很会生财 不要把MJ招牌给砸了倒是 : 悲的是又被MJ讨厌的钱尼分好大一杯羹阿~~~~~ : 今年有新专辑!!! 也不知该喜还该悲 七年出十张会不会太夸张阿~~~精选满天?? -- always help the children, love them. --
