Chapter 214: Record Label Conception
Chapter 214 Record Label Conception
It can be seen that Ma Huateng is still quite interested in this cooperation.
As for not agreeing for the time being, after all, it is necessary to hand over part of the QQ source code to cooperate with the development, and careful consideration is also necessary.
And the bubbling platform has to fulfill their promise first, at least on the product.
There is no hurry, the follow-up research and development of the bubbling platform will take some time, at least Polestar's first mobile phone, the NJStar A100, will not be able to catch up.
Of course, even if it can be done in time, the configuration of Polaris A100 will not be able to hold up, but the music mobile phone E100 that has been approved should be fine.
With this, it is also just right to enhance the attractiveness of the E100 when it is launched.
After some discussion, Xia Yu and Ma Huateng agreed on a month - at that time, Sky Network needs to come up with an application platform that can be transmitted and run maturely, and has the support of some cooperative mobile phone manufacturers, and Tencent will also exclusively open the third-party development rights of mobile phone QQ.
The conditions are not bad, but the R&D task is a bit tight.
Sending Ma Huateng away, Xia Yu immediately told Song Tao, and sure enough, Song Tao complained: "Mr. Xia, a month, this is a bit difficult......
According to their scheduled development schedule, as well as the cycle of testing and trial operation, it took almost two months to come up with a relatively mature version, which was halved, which is indeed difficult.
At this time, Xia Yu put away his usual kind attitude and said solemnly: "Mr. Song, this matter is really unreasonable, and we have to go to it if it is difficult." Product research and development in the Internet era is only fast and not broken! If you miss a good opportunity, you may miss the big market. ”
Thinking of dealing with some mobile phone manufacturers, he added: "Well, your side is mainly responsible for getting the tools of the MINIJ platform ready in three weeks." To test the matching of bubbling platforms under mainstream models, I will send someone to assist you in discussing cooperation with mobile phone manufacturers, and strive to settle down a few pre-selected partners as soon as possible. ”
Song Tao just complained casually, he knew that he couldn't back down at this time, and letting the bubbling platform shine as soon as possible was his biggest motivation.
Hearing that Xia Yu would continue to help, he also solemnly promised: "Okay, Mr. Xia, don't worry, I will take this life even if I give it up!"
"I have to save my life", Xia Yu was angry with him: "There is still a lot of follow-up research and development work, who will fix you down?"
"Okay. Then I'll leave half my life and continue to work hard for Mr. Xia!"
"you!"
In fact, it is true that these tasks can be completed in three weeks, but they are not impossible.
Xia Yu has a detailed understanding of Skye's R&D progress.
When I decided to invest in Skye Networks so quickly, in addition to the future success of this company in the memory of rebirth, what is more important is that Song Tao and several core team members have already completed the core code at that time?
The next work enlightenment is more to analyze it and improve the platform functions step by step.
At present, under the condition that the hardware and network software support of mobile phones are not high, many functions can be put on hold first, just make the basic platform, and then slowly add it according to the actual operation situation in the future!
Of course. Even if it is developed and supported by partners, the bubbling platform needs at least one or two years to accumulate enough users to achieve revenue balance, and I am afraid that Xia Yu will continue to invest in it before.
It's nothing, some things are more strategic than making money.
And in the previous life, Skye's development was a bit slow. The main thing is that there is still a lack of money, this time with the support of Xia Yu, and even the support of Polestar mobile phones in the future, it should be able to speed up the popularity.
Maybe you can change the impression that in the previous life it was only popular on various domestic low-end machines.
……
The next big thing for Polestar Electronics is the development of mobile phones. Xia Yu no longer runs around, and has been stuck in the R&D center, of course, there is no need to interfere specifically. The main thing is to put forward opinions and set directions.
Some rough prototypes have also come out in the past two days.
With Qualcomm's chips and the preparation of screen, memory, battery, etc., which have been prepared for a long time, coupled with the relatively mature solution of Jingwei Technology, the basic functions are almost the same.
The prototype without the shell is a little ugly, but it can be used when the phone card is inserted.
However, to dig deeper, there are still many small problems in the signal, operation, power supply, built-in antenna and other aspects of several prototypes, and the final adjustments must be continued.
The shell mold is also here, Fan Pingze has made several quite good designs in accordance with Xia Yu's construction and his understanding, but it will take some time to match the pigment purity selection provided by the manufacturer in terms of roundness of the corners and the feel of the material.
As for the control interface, etc., they still asked Frog Design Company, a partner of the Polaris S1, to help, which is a bit expensive, but the standard is absolutely satisfied.
At about five o'clock in the afternoon of this day, Xia Yu had just finished communicating with Fan Pingze about the new color matching, and suddenly received a call from Meng Jing - there was something urgent.
I can't believe my aunt's words!
This was Xia Yu's first reaction.
Speaking of the last time Meng Jing from Nanjing helped catch the line of Jinling Panda, in order to express his "gratitude", Xia Yu still took the time to chat with him about the development of Rumeng Music.
Because of the increasing amount of funds in hand and the smooth development of her business, Meng Jing is no longer satisfied with making money by relying on the electronic communication rights of several popular singers.
Of course, this part is still the main business, Pang Long is in the booming period, and the benefits brought by the sharing contract have been revealed; Yang Yi and Liu Jialiang have gradually gained a foothold, showing a momentum of fire; In addition, the electronic contract of singer Zhang Dongliang, who was signed in Singapore, has also officially broken out, and is now on the major charts.
There is also the original CRBT department that was established a year ago, and after more than a month of testing the waters, it has gradually found a way.
Among them, the two categories of spoof and humor personality ringtones have given birth to several good projects, and even one or two have rushed to the rankings.
But perhaps stimulated by the success of Xia Yu's Polestar Electronics, Meng Jing, who is already a rising star in the music operation circle, is still not satisfied.
Not long ago, she actually started the idea of becoming a full-fledged record company!
Although the record industry still has some money to make now, it is a well-deserved sunset industry under the free tide of the Internet!
At that time, Xia Yu was busy in Yanjing, and she didn't have time to chat with her in detail, so this girl kept calling her on the left and on the right, and pulled Zhang Ru to lie to her.
In the end, Xia Yu was really helpless, and finally came back to meet with her, and also told her about the future development momentum of the music industry. But the effect seems to be average.
Forget it, anyway, a small-scale record company can't burn much money, and he, the major shareholder, finally nodded.
"Really, Xia Yu! I finally found a suitable company, and Zhao Tianyang also thinks it is reliable!" Meng Jing shouted over there.
This is still Xia Yujian's, if you really want to start a record company, it will be too troublesome from scratch, or it is fast and convenient to acquire a small record company.
And that Zhao Tianyang is a friend of Meng Jing, who has worked in Warner and the Nanyue branch of the Chinese record company, and Xia Yu has talked to him twice. I feel like I'm pretty reliable.
Xia Yu said helplessly: "Miss, you can do it, I raise my hands in favor!"
Meng Jing didn't do it, and continued to shout: "No, you are the lucky star of the dream, you have to check it!"
Khan, how can we count it as the creator behind Rumeng Music, is it good, and it is a lucky star. Forget it, it's almost the same here today. He decided to take a run anyway.
Meng Jing said again: "By the way, Zhang Ru is also coming over, you can call her, wait for you!"
"Got it!"
……
Hang up the phone. Xia Yu greeted Fan Pingze and Yang Chunsheng, and then called Zhang Ru for a ride.
Polestar has been cooperating with Xingru advertising, especially in a series of supplementary advertisements and promotional activities around Zhou Xun, but Xia Yu hasn't seen Zhang Ru for a while.
Zhang Ru drove her own car. Xia Yu has also seen it, it is a rather atmospheric black Audi A8.
It is said that many people's personalities can be seen from the selection of cars, and they don't know whether they are accurate or not.
It should be accurate, right?
Zhang Ru has been busy enough recently. Recently, the development of Xingru advertising has been good, in order to grab a half-year order of Mercedes-Benz with several 4A-level international advertising companies, she has not had much rest for several days, and has been staring at it personally.
As soon as Xia Yu got in the car, he saw her tired look, and couldn't help asking, "I've been busy lately?" Why don't I call the driver, don't drive if you're too tired." ”
Zhang Ru stretched out her hand and rubbed her eyes, and said, "Oh, it's okay, I took a nap just before going out." ”
"Then you drive slowly! I'd better sit in the back row, you can concentrate. ”
"Good. Speaking of which, you Polestar seems to have been moving a little bit lately, isn't that your style?" she kept an eye on Polestar.
Of course, Polestar Electronics has only been around for eight months, and it has already stirred up so many storms that it will definitely not stop when it is placed in other companies.
"Hehe, keep this a secret first, there should be a surprise after a while."
"Well, we'll see. By the way, isn't it time for you to learn a driver's license? Driving is easy and convenient. ”
"Well, I'm thinking about it!"
Hey, driving is quite simple, and I even have itchy hands, but I have tried more than once before and it is difficult to cross the hurdle in my heart!
Xia Yu was also quite helpless about this.
It's not far to Rumeng Music Company, but it's a bit of a traffic jam at this time, because it's not good to chat with Zhang Ru, he thinks about the development of Rumeng Music in his heart by the way.
To put it simply, the era of simply making records and relying on traditional distribution will definitely pass, and a large part of the revenue of record companies in the future will come from concerts and commercial performances.
As for the Internet, which is the main culprit, it has become a platform for musicians to expand their influence in the future.
There is also a banner to do genuine music dissemination on the Internet and let users pay to download it, so forget it.
Don't look at what giant whale music, domi music, etc. are playing like this, but in the end, they all give up or go out of business? (To be continued......)
