Between 2000 and 2001, global CD sales and the overall size of the music industry both reached their all-time highs, seemingly insurmountable, but have ironically declined ever since. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The birth of the iPod in 2001 may explain why this year became a turning point in history, because with the birth of the iPod was iTunes!

iTunes' position in the history of digital music is self-evident, subversively pioneering the paid download of singles and the sharing model of musicians, which has changed the sales model and strategy of the record industry.

iTunes is like opening Pandora's box and playing a requiem for the physical record industry.

It is not only a model, but also opens the door to the idea of how to sell digital music, and sells a more convenient music buying experience to the public.

Since 2001, a large number of Internet companies have closed down and laid off employees, which has made people truly feel the power of the Internet winter.

This year, the portal era officially withdrew from the mainstream view, and online games became the savior.

In fact, there is another point that is easy to ignore this year, that is, with the improvement of people's living standards, mobile phones have become more and more popular.

Mobile alone has grown from more than 20 million users last year to 50 million users, and that's just as of September, and by the end of the year, that number will definitely increase!

iTunes is not well-known in China, but it has inspired some people how to use music to make money from the people!

The literary and artistic man who just walked in front of Su Wen's eyes is named Li Yourong, and he was the first person in China to be inspired by iTunes.

Innovatively make the single into a mobile phone ringtone and sell it to operators, so as to make a lot of money!

And this business, in the end, let the operators led by China Mobile and Wangyi make a lot of money!

Li Yourong may not have realized it at the time, but his move also sounded the clarion call for domestic digital music!

The reason why Li Yourong is in Su Wenyan's Chinese art style is because of the eye-catching ponytail behind him, if it were not for the clothes on his body, it would be easy to see him as a woman.

Li Yourong's appearance has not changed from the future, but he is far from being as energetic as he will be in the future.

On the contrary, Li Yourong looked humble at the moment, holding a business plan in his hand, and expounded it to a middle-aged man, as if he wanted to attract the attention of the middle-aged man.

However, the middle-aged man had an obviously impatient look on his face, and he had already raised his hand many times to interrupt Li Yourong's words.

Yuan Qin took a serious look at Li Yourong, who was a bit of a literary fan, several times, and found that there was nothing particularly noteworthy, so he quickly skipped it from her gaze.

However, Li Yourong was eagerly flattering the middle-aged man, Yuan Qin had some memory, and in his heart he mistakenly thought that he was the object that Su Wen wanted to know, and said. "The middle-aged man's name is Zeng Mingshan, one of the members of the Jiangbei Society, and the founder of Datang Capital. ”

Datang Capital, Zeng Mingshan, and Su Wen have heard of it, but his focus is still on that Li Yourong, because he can bring profits to WeChat, but Zeng Mingshan can't!

Seeing that Sister Qin knew that Zeng Mingshan, maybe she could take the opportunity to meet Li Yourong, with this in mind, the two walked over.

Walking up to Zeng Mingshan and Li Yourong, Yuan Qin smiled. "Mr. Zeng, don't be unharmed lately!"

Zeng Mingshan was worried about how to get out of Li Yourong's place, and when he saw Yuan Qin coming over at this moment, it was like seeing a savior, and said. "That's as bright and moving as you are!"

Zeng Mingshan's gaze looked at Yuan Qin unscrupulously, and then glanced at Su Wen beside her lightly.

However, Su Wen's immature face is really not easy for people to pay attention to, and Zeng Mingshan's gaze flashed over him.

Yuan Qin introduced. "Let me introduce to you, this is a new member of the Jiangbei Association, Su Wen, the boss of WeChat. ”

Datang Capital's main business is investment, and Weixin has attracted the news chased by the four major investment banks in the past two months, if Zeng Mingshan hadn't heard of it, he wouldn't have to be in this circle.

Zeng Mingshan put away the contemptuous gaze just now, his enthusiasm increased by several levels, and he firmly held Su Wen's hand and said. "Fortunately, Mr. Su. ”

Su Wen maintained a ceremonial smile on his face and replied in his mouth. "Fortunately, Mr. Zeng. ”

Zeng Mingshan sighed. "If it weren't for the fact that the four major investment banks were closed to Weixin, we Datang Capital would all want to visit us. ”

Suvin explained. "We have no plans to raise funds at the moment, so it is not a closed door. ”

Broad friendship is Zeng Mingshan's motto, and he enthusiastically said to Su Wendao. "In the future, if Weixin encounters difficulties in capital turnover, I dare not say more, but I can still do my best. ”

Su Wen said in his mouth. "Will definitely remember. ”

Li Yourong saw that he was completely left aside, and in disappointment put away the business plan he had just shown to Zeng Mingshan, and left the three of them with his head lowered.

Su Wen looked at Li Yourong's departing back, pretended to be careless, and asked casually. "Who is that?"

Zeng Mingshan sneered at Li Yourong's back. "Just an unrealistic young man, I heard that he has set up a music company called Jinmai, which specializes in acquiring the online copyright of songs from major music companies, and he doesn't know what to do in the future, and he still wants me to invest in him!"

got the information that Zeng Mingshan inadvertently transmitted, Su Wen instantly remembered that Li Yourong's company was called Jinmai Music Company.

Now that he knew the name of Li Yourong's company, Su Wen had a score in his heart, so he gave up the idea of catching up.

After a few days of inquiry, I will be able to get in touch with Li Yourong.

Su Wen doesn't know anything about investment, but he has more than ten years of memory, and there are still many topics to talk about with Zeng Mingshan.

Yuan Qin made a good concoction between the two men very peacefully, and occasionally said a sentence.

Chen Kui was taken to Wang Ruhai's side by the staff at the venue.

Wang Ruhai once promised Chen Kui that he would make him a member of the Jiangbei Society.

It's just that Su Wen's rise is too fast, which disrupts Wang Ruhai's plan, if he is not recruited first, I am afraid that the people of the Jiangbei Association will say that he is incompetent as the president.

Therefore, Wang Ruhai is encouraging Chen Kui at the moment, making him understand that he is also a last resort.

In the face of the personal explanation of the richest man in Jiangbei, Chen Kui originally had a trace of unhappiness in his heart, which had long disappeared, and was replaced by Wang Ruhai's attention to himself, and he said with sincere fear on his face. "Mr. Wang, I understand this kind of thing. ”

Seeing that the means of buying people's hearts worked, Wang Ruhaidao. "I'll introduce you to the helmsman of Weixin later. ”

As a native of Jiangbei, Chen Kui has naturally heard of the name of Weixin, but he doesn't know that the helmsman of Weixin is a twenty-year-old young man.

In the scope of Chen Kui's understanding, the helmsman of WeChat should be at least thirty or forty years old!
