707. Music Market
It is not surprising that Ali launched the rookie network so early, and it is the Four Elephants Fund that participated in this matter. Originally, Time Holdings was a better choice, but Lei Jun and Jack Ma had a holiday, when Jack Ma asked Lei Jun for financing, he was ruthlessly rejected, and Lei Jun also said that Jack Ma was like a liar in front of others......
It's not that there are no people in this world who can meet each other and laugh and have enmity, most of them are because the gap between two people is too big, so it doesn't matter if they have enmity. If the gap between the two people is not so big that it makes people desperate, hehe...... You know!
After meeting with Jackma and the others, the matter of the magic capital came to an end for the time being, and the people he had made an appointment with in Yanjing were already waiting for him, after all, they couldn't wait for a long time.
Since he decided to enter the music market, he didn't plan to fool around with it, he always had to find a way, the first thing he had to do was to integrate the domestic music market and establish his status as the king, and then he would go to the world with the help of Baidai Music. MD,Actually, you can't use it,When the time comes, you have to rely on music streaming apps,Even streaming media is useless,You have to rely on smart speakers,Rely on artificial intelligence voice assistants to push。 Regardless, no matter how the form of music changes, content creation is always at the core.
In recent years, the copyright cost of the film and television industry has gradually increased, and Time iQiyi has always been a big player in the purchase of film and television copyrights, and in addition to the huge investment in hoarding copyrights at the beginning, with the rise in the price of copyright market, it has not competed with companies such as Youku Tudou Baidu at high prices, but mainly to improve user experience.
In addition to the same time music, it has software apps such as Kuwo, Time Music, Time Radio, etc., as well as its own music copyright agency, which has acquired a large number of music copyrights and exclusive agency rights, because of the relationship between Starlight Film and Television, Time is no stranger to the entertainment industry and has made a lot of noise in this market, although it is not profitable, but now the music copyright of Time is close to the level of 10 million songs. However, this obviously could not satisfy Zhou Shi's ambitions, which was originally intended to accumulate slowly, but now it seems that he has to smash a future through funds.
"Hello! Hello!" Zhou Shi returned to Yanjing to meet the two candidates he had chosen.
"Mr. Zhou is good!"
"Mr. Zhou is good!"
Both of them are well-known figures in the domestic music industry, and they both have their own legends, one is called Song Ke, who is the founder of Taihe Wheat Field, and the other is Gao Xiaoyi, and the other is a well-known musician, so this introduction is more appropriate. In their previous lives, these two guys were about to join Evergrande Music, and later joined Ali Music, scaring away the real estate tycoons, and tossing away a music app with hundreds of millions of users. Even talented and talented people are beaten by the market.
"I'd like to ask you two to do you a favor!" Zhou Shi didn't say much politely to them.
"Oh!" the two were not shocked, after all, who had nothing to do with two strangers.
"I don't know if we can do it!"
"I'm not sure either, but I want to give it a try. "Zhou Shi
"Let's put it this way, it won't be long before Baidai Music should be able to be won by us jointly, the domestic music market is so sluggish, and it even looks hopeless, this is a very abnormal phenomenon, I don't think the human demand for music, film and television will disappear so soon, at most it will be appreciated in another form. So based on that judgment, we went into the music market, into this market that seemed hopeless. "Zhou Shi
"What does this have to do with us!" Gao Xiaozi said
"The situation at home and abroad is different, it must be treated differently, although with its financial advantage, Time Music has a great possibility to be the leader of the music market, but that makes no sense, I don't want a monopoly music group to appear in China, even if the original intention is good, but human nature is very complicated, who knows if it will deteriorate in the future. So I originally wanted to wait for other Internet companies to invest heavily in competing with Time Music, but .......
Therefore, I want to take advantage of the opportunity of acquiring EMI Music to establish a competitor for time, and I also want to accelerate the competitive pattern of the domestic music market. So I have musicians to help me with the content creation part. "Zhou Shi
There is no doubt that he showed his idealistic side, especially the various interpretations of Zhou Shi at home and abroad, the Taoist theory of yin and yang is known by many people, and Zhou Shi is often willing to try or invest in two projects or companies that are two sides of the same coin, competing with each other. Gao Xiaoyi and Song Ke did not doubt Zhou Shi's claims.
"It's hard to make money in the domestic music market, and it's very likely to lose money by doing so!" Song Ke has a deep understanding of these years in Taihe Wheat Field.
"Don't worry about making money, the development of digital music has made the population base of people who like music more than double or tripled, and the popularity of mobile terminal devices has made music more crowds, and with the improvement of people's living standards, the state attaches more importance to intellectual copyright, and the income in this area will definitely increase. It's only a matter of time, and one of our problems now is to maintain the ability to create follow-ups, and to have a steady stream of high-quality content to appear, so that the domestic music market can have hope. "Zhou Shi
"Even if things go as you expected, who knows how long it will take for the market to get better, and to get there, you'll need to put in a lot of ......," Song Ke
"I am scared of the speed at which my wealth is increasing now, I don't think it is a good thing to have so much wealth, but I have my own views on charity, if I can help domestic music innovation, and even become an important part of world music in the future, this achievement should be no worse than doing charity!" Zhou Shi
"Hehe, the increase in wealth makes you afraid!" Gao Xiaoyi suddenly laughed
Zhou Shi's face darkened, MD, what's so funny about this.
"Wealth is a kind of honor and a responsibility, I don't know if I can take this responsibility, and I won't enjoy the current wealth with peace of mind. "Zhou Shi
"I'm sorry, my stinky mouth, I wanted to say ......," Gao Xiaoyi hurriedly explained
"He didn't mean anything else, just a little hard to believe...... "Song Ke."
"It's okay, don't be nervous, listen to his words and watch his deeds, things are done not said, just pay attention to the occasion, say nothing in private, if many people know, things will deteriorate......" Zhou Shi's measurement is not so much that he can't stand the slightest ridicule
"We're definitely not going to talk nonsense!"
"Well, yes. "Gao Xiaozi
"???" Zhou Shi was confused, what did he say? What he meant was obviously to let them pay attention to the proportions of their speech when there were many people......
"I want you to preside over the innovative creation of domestic music content alone, and the ......other to supervise and inspect the Western operating model at the headquarters of EMI," Zhou Shi said
