Malaysian singer Qiu Qinwei previously raised funds for the second album on the fundraising platform FlyingV, and successfully raised 350,000 yuan. At the same time, he spent three times the amount of funds raised. It was originally expected to be released in October, but it was delayed for some reason to be launched recently. However, on Thursday (22nd), Qiu Qinwei received a call from Heguang Company, which handled the distribution business, saying that the agent "Brother Ye" Ye Shuxian went to inform him that the two parties still had a contract and the album was not allowed to be released without authorization, which surprised him. He was held a special press conference today (27th) to explain the progress of the album and the current contract status with the agency.
Qiu Qinwei said that two months after the release of his first album in July 2014, he had lost contact with his agent, Brother Ye. He only met him once outside the restaurant, but because they were in a hurry, he could not talk about work. In the next two years, Qiu Qinwei failed to meet him. He contacted Brother Ye no more than five times, and did not arrange work for Qiu Qinwei. Qiu Qinwei relied on his own. In addition to raising funds on the fundraising platform, he raised funds to produce his second album. Because he was quite satisfied with the work, he hoped to be issued and registered for the Golden Melody Award before the end of the year. Unexpectedly, he received a notice from the distribution company that Brother Ye went to the power barrier distribution. He said, "I am actually just uploading the message to contact Ye with E-mail immediately. The gentleman asked about the situation, but he still has not received any reply. "
At that time, Qiu Qinwei, who had just completed his work and made an appointment with his friend to go to Yang Naiwen's concert, was very surprised when he received the news. He said, "I originally thought that I could finally finish my work and listen to music with my friend to relax. I didn't expect such news to be heard. It would not affect my mood, but I was a little surprised, so I left without watching the concert. Then I posted on Facebook fan page and private Facebook. It will take 5 days and 120 hours to this day. I still can’t get a response from Brother Ye, so I feel a little helpless. "He feels guilty about the sponsors and fundraising platforms who have sponsored fundraising projects but cannot get instant feedback. He is expected to send a letter of evidence on the 29th, hoping that Brother Ye will come forward as soon as possible. "Actually, I don’t feel particularly sad or heavy. If I have to say that I feel helpless, it’s because I am in the record circle. As a junior, I have tried my best to contact each other. I hope to meet with Brother Ye soon and discuss subsequent cooperation in detail. "
In response, the agent Brother Ye responded, saying that when he collaborated with Qiu Qinwei for his first album, he had a bad attitude towards work. He had never heard of Qiu Qinwei hoping to terminate the contract, but the contract stated that if the contract terminated, he would pay a liquidated damages of NT$5 million. If he wanted to meet and negotiate, he had to wait until after January 8. Qiu Qinwei explained that the promotion of his first album in Malaysia was all based on his own contact. After returning to Taiwan, Brother Ye did not arrange the publicity process and did not receive any notices for him. However, he also said that he did not want to terminate the contract, but hoped that everyone could discuss the subsequent cooperation matters together.
