Chapter 555: Is it an opportunity to catch people, or is it a chance to seize people
Whenever South Korea is mentioned, the first thought in the minds of Chinese is generally "a small country smaller than a small country, and even dares to usurp the historical achievements of China, and even another small country that has ruled you thinks you are ridiculous." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Then, TV dramas, cosmetics, clothing, and, the social atmosphere of plastic surgery for all.
In general, it is quite difficult for Korean artists to enter the Chinese market.
This is actually nonsense, it is very difficult for different artists to enter the entertainment market in any country with different native languages, but it seems that there are only Korean artists in the world, who always feel that their country is not good and always want to develop abroad. Therefore, as their encounters outside the country increase, some famous people will also bluntly tell reporters how difficult it is abroad and how good they are at home, and this kind of earnest words are more like a kind of rhetoric prepared to curry favor with the Korean people who do not know the truth.
As a Korean group, Girls' Generation enjoys more abundant performing arts resources because it is in the company, even if there are not many invitations from the media and TV stations, at least there are resources such as family concerts or family advertisements that are generated by bundling sales.
However, because it is a Korean combination, it is much more difficult to enter the Chinese market.
You know, the popular Korean entertainment products in China are actually just TV dramas that don't require money for the people, and then clothing and cosmetics that ask for a little more money, and idol entertainment, which is similar to the entertainment method of "evil" and "religion" to recruit members, the vast majority of Chinese will instinctively refuse.
Note that this is talking about the vast majority, so there are still a small number of Chinese who will still enter the pit. However, because China's population base is large enough, this small number is enough for Korean idol artists, you know, many Korean artists have only 20,000 or 30,000 fans at most.
After experiencing the popularity of hot and finally returning to calm, Saman Company, a brokerage company that started with the idol industry, has launched an in-depth summary and research on the idol economy. They counted the things they had experienced after the establishment of the company, and found that there were actually only two real sources of income for the idol industry, one was advertising revenue, and the other was concert tickets and sponsorship income. The latter type of income is determined according to the currency of the country where it is located, and to put it bluntly, it is really profitable to hold concerts in economically developed countries and regions such as Europe, the United States, or Japan.
The entertainment industry is an industry that will only be bred by modern civilization, and in essence, it has no value, so it only participates in the redistribution of social value, according to this, the entertainment industry will flow to the market with a good economic form. In other words, the country's entertainment market can attract foreign artists, and the country's economic strength will be strong.
There is a deep-seated misconception that the Japanese entertainment industry is very closed, and Japanese artists are reluctant to go to other countries, but this is only a superficial reading, and the real reason is that Japanese artists cannot find a better entertainment market than their home market except for the United States.
But there are exceptions, and that is that for a visionary group planner, a group that thinks they have reached the industry is actually dead, so after the members of a group think that they have achieved their goals, the planner should tell them that there are higher goals worth striving for.
For AKB48, they are also eager to enter the Chinese market, but their desire is actually due to the continuous encouragement of Yasushi Akimoto, as for how long this spirit of "we are far from the peak, we have to redouble our efforts" can last.
Phoebe has long been collecting remarks from AKB48 members on the Internet, and analyzed that AKB48 and Girls' Generation have common interests in this period, whether it is cooperation in the Japanese market or common improvement around the world, it is a place where the two groups can cooperate.
According to Phoebe's plan, inviting war-wounded children to watch the Olympics this time could be an opportunity for Girls' Generation and AKB48 to enter the Chinese market in a more friendly manner, so she not only did not notify the media to follow the shooting, but also persuaded ASK to stop shooting videos during the public welfare activities, in order to ensure such an amiable gesture.
Most importantly, when war-wounded children came to China, Phoebe did not organize war-wounded children through some international non-profit organizations, such as the World Association for the Protection of the Rights and Interests of Persons with Disabilities, but through mosques, which are nodes of the ancient organizational structure in the Middle East.
In this way, there will be no public welfare activities that are known and reported by the media at the beginning, and those Mu # Si # Imam Lin are also happy to cooperate after the people who went to Titan repeatedly promised not to take the initiative to invite reporters.
Not all of AKB48's expansion into China was recognized, as they didn't even gain a foothold in the Japanese market, and it was only after they found a record label again in May that they ended the embarrassment of having to release underground singles. Obviously, at this time, most people in the ASK company still think that AKB48 should find a way to gain a foothold in Japan before anything else.
Therefore, when the group was first formed, the lofty goals that Yasuya Akimoto had instilled in the members had to be repeatedly reduced, and for most of the first members, it would be good if they could stand at the top of Japan in the future. As for further afield, we'll talk about that later.
It can be said that the cooperation with Titan, in a sense, is actually an attempt by Yasu Akimoto to keep this group an international vision, if there is a chance to enter the Chinese market, of course, it is good, if there is no such opportunity, it doesn't matter, after all, participating in such a seemingly utilitarian public welfare activity, may not be able to obtain any benefits at the moment, but judging from some of the plans that Titan has verbally confided, the long-term benefits of this matter are still quite rich.
The development of the idol circle depends on a good reputation.
As we all know, around the middle of September in China, there is a traditional festival called Mid-Autumn Festival.
And this Paralympic Games coincided with the major event of the Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival, so Phoebe had long planned to arrange for war-wounded children to also experience the Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival.
Well, in addition to everyone giving out a few months cakes, the next thing is to organize everyone to go to the concert.
Everyone knows the creative background of "Erquan Reflecting the Moon", and organizing war-wounded children to listen to the Mid-Autumn Festival concert will naturally hear "Erquan Reflecting the Moon".
At this time, it can also be told to the war-wounded children that the author of "Erquan Reflecting the Moon" is also a disabled person, and his eyes cannot see at all, but he is not discouraged, adhering to the spirit of endless life and creating for the toiling masses, and finally created this popular music, which Ozawa Seiji even called should be listened to on his knees.
When I came to the concert, I kept the previous arrangement of watching the game, and sitting next to Phoebe was the girl who had no hands and no eyes.
Taking advantage of the interval between performances, the girl asked, "Phoebe, is this piece really an expression of missing her loved ones?"
"That's what the Chinese say, and I don't know very well. Phoebe told the truth, she has no emotional fluctuations, so she can't integrate her feelings when performing the show, and similarly, she can't understand the emotional symbols conveyed in the artwork, of course, if necessary, she will use the form of pure rationality, the artistic expression that she has heard and seen, directly copy and come out, which only relies on her strong logic and memory ability.
The girl looked at the volunteer members of AKB48 and found that they were all very excited about this song, and felt that they could hear the charm of it, while the other members of Girls' Generation, as well as some Korean artists who joined one after another, seemed to be pondering or tasting something, only this Phoebe, who looked like she had nothing to do with herself, to be precise, she was unmoved, how she was usually, and what she was still like now.
The girl shook her head slightly and said, "I think I can hear a kind of resentment from this song, hatred of the sky, hatred of the earth, hatred of parents, hatred of relatives, hatred of life, hatred of fate, and hatred of myself." ”
Phoebe nodded and said seriously, "Well, it may be like this, but I really can't hear it. Also, fortunately, you are speaking in Arabic, and if you are heard by the Chinese, you will definitely think that you are talking nonsense. ”
The girl was silent for a moment, and then said happily: "Indeed, as long as they don't understand, it's okay to say anything." It's like you often say things I don't understand. ”
No matter how omniscient Phoebe was, she would have felt inexplicable about the girl's last sentence, so she looked at her with a stunned expression.
The girl suddenly switched to German and said, "I heard you and that Barbara. ”
"......" Phoebe immediately decided to use the ability of the naked eye to let the girl take a look when she left China. And now, Phoebe's put away her stunned expression, changed back to the way she was just now, and didn't even look at the girl anymore.
The girl continued in German: "My family fought against the British and Americans in the Afrika Korps. As a result, I learned German from a young age and a little bit of Italian. I hadn't used it for a long time, but the words you and Barbara had made me remember something that day, and I went back and tried to remember it, and finally remembered what to say. ”
Phoebe had thought that this girl was at least very intelligent, and she had very general information about this girl before, only knowing that her family was very powerful in a certain sect, but she didn't expect her family to teach her German.
"You and Barbara talk in German, and you think there are fewer people than English, but I didn't expect that I could understand it. The girl's expression was a little distorted with excitement.
"......" Phoebe nodded slightly, but still didn't speak, she was actually using the technique of guiding others to speak, wanting to see what this girl was going to do. Although the NSA's evacuation warning to her was a bit too loud, if this girl took out what she heard and publicized it, then Phoebe may have to leave China early, and some cooperation with the Chinese entertainment industry will have to be terminated.
Since she was a child, Phoebe had the greatest vigilance against everyone because she couldn't remember people's faces, and what followed was that she was wary of all countries and forces. She never believed that feelings could make her safe, and she only believed in and relied on the results of the deduction based on facts, on the one hand, relying on her strong logical thinking and memory, and on the other hand, it was also the lesson she learned from the results of easily believing in others. For example, when she first arrived in South Korea, she believed in the safety of the education system, but her classmates gave her a moment to make her understand that the human heart is sinister at all times.
Of course, Sunny is an accident and a surprise to her, the only link she has to connect herself with human society, if there is no Sunny, then in case of greater trouble, Phoebe who has no scruples really doesn't know what to do - using the ability of her eyes to make people go home and commit suicide is already Phoebe's most careful way to deal with it. But just like Sunny and she were worried about, this ability may not be a good thing, and if you use it too much, I'm afraid there will be unpredictable damage waiting for Phoebe.
And the reason why Phoebe can bring Titan to this level is because she knows the real rules of the international community today, once the Chinese also realize that what she wants is to let Girls' Generation enter China, then they will use this matter as a weight to get some technology and intelligence. If Titan is not attached to the American power structure, it is not impossible to do this, but since it is already on the side of the United States, it can only be within the American system, although it is also necessary to be prepared to protect itself, but there is no need to worry about being attacked from the entire system. But if she tosses and turns between big countries like smaller countries, Phoebe will not do it, because her main purpose in developing Titan is to promote Girls' Generation to a higher status, and this purpose is to serve the ideals of Sister Sun.
Therefore, in the face of this girl who suddenly said that she could understand German, Phoebe said seriously: "Majid Eliya Bushra Haifa Oria Sharif Haibaiha ......"
Phoebe was still talking, and the girl looked at Phoebe speechlessly, because Phoebe was reading her full name, and according to the rules, she couldn't interrupt at this time. When Phoebe finished reading it all, the girl first secretly praised Phoebe for being able to say her name in full, and then asked in a rare tone that was funny and at the same time much closer: "Why are you reading my full name?"
Phoebe shook her head slightly, "Just like I know your full name, but I rarely say it, you don't have to tell me about my conversation with Barbara." ”
From Phoebe's tone, the girl felt some coldness.
The girl's family is actually an elder family of a big tribe, so she still knows some means of struggle that cannot see the light, and she immediately reacted, Phoebe is probably alluding to her own actions, as if she has violated some taboos. She was attacked by the opposition indiscriminately when she attended a ceremony in the new #government# government with her family members, so although she is also a war-wounded child, in fact, she still has more insight than other children.
And this time she came to Beijing, she was just casually following to see it, and the family was indeed going to find her a marriage partner after she returned, but all this changed with the German conversation between Barbara and Phoebe.
In fact, before she was injured, how could she want to spend the rest of her life with several wives standing in a man, although the family is an extremely conservative faction, but the women in such a faction also have a certain status, especially if they can become the wife of a big man, even more so, but the premise is that she must have a sound body and mind.
After being injured, even the family took a lot less care of her, which actually made her a little unwilling and a little angry.
Therefore, in such a state of mind, she can hear things that others can't hear from "Erquan Reflecting the Moon".
Of course, the reason why she said that to Phoebe was that she subconsciously knew that she might have another opportunity, that is, like her grandfather, to use German and contact with the Germans...... And the last German speaker in front of her happened to be Barbara and Phoebe, and what they said was probably no less than what the Afrika Korps had to do during World War II......
