Gu Cheng didn't expect that on the eve of his departure from S-M Company, the two-hour crooked and poisonous chicken soup in foreign language class had such a profound impact on Quan Baoya. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

That day, he basically just thought about it and talked nonsense.

The content is nothing more than to promote his set of "learning gamification" theory derived from the "assisted learning biological CPU":

In everything you do, you must always set a small goal, such as earning 100 million first, and ensure that you can often be motivated by the thrill of achievement......

When training, don't waste time killing the garbage that can't get experience points because of the pleasure of coveting the "gray monster" of mowing the lawn. Always step by step, challenge the monsters who don't overstep, oh not challenge those skills that are just in between mastering and not mastering......

The year 2000 was still an era of poor poisonous chicken soup, Gu Cheng had more decades of knowledge, and his words were not sharp.

A pure and good girl who has been working hard for several years and rarely thinks about life was actually surrounded by him, and in the following months, she used this self-discipline all the time - so she initially learned how to speak Chinese, learned how to compose lyrics in Fusang, tried how to deal with variety shows in Yiyu, and how to set small goals to motivate herself......

From that moment on, Quan Baoya's "Lori Cultivation Plan" for herself was poisoned by Gu Cheng, the strange Shu Huang!

It's a sad story.

"This debut album will sell about 70,000 copies in the first week. The company gave me a commission of 1 yuan and 2 sheets, rice yuan - so, I have achieved my first small goal. ”

When Gu Cheng heard the news, he suddenly felt a little in a trance: he had reached the first 100 million in a week, and now Xiaoya has also earned the first 100 million in a week of debut.

Of course, this is thanks to President Li's kindness to Quan Baoya: the commission of 1 piece and 2 knives is unimaginable in the eyes of other artists in the company - a few years after the history of the Dongyi TVXQ group, the unit price of the record commission taken by 5 people together is only one-third of Quan Baoya. It's no wonder that Dongyi Shenqi ran away from the five people later, and they were all forced by the contract.

Quan Baoya's ability to get a high salary has nothing to do with her father-there is a father who is an official in the Ministry of Culture, and the company naturally does not dare to exploit her.

But in other words: if you want to enter such a chaotic place as your circle, you have to fight something. It's better for a girl to fight her father than to fight for her father. The former can still keep his body from being defiled.

"I'll give you 30 million in a while, and I'll end Han Geng's business. Kwon Bo-ah finished drinking and said the final conclusion with a blank face.

Gu Cheng could see that the girl's attitude towards him was much worse than at the beginning. The more you drink, the thinner the disguise.

But he couldn't explain, so he smiled bitterly and smothered the wine: "I'll pay you back soon." ”

Gu Cheng never felt that there was any shame in asking a woman to borrow money - not to beg, but to borrow. The girl took the initiative to talk about this, what else is there to be hypocritical.

After a few people finished drinking, they went back to Handong Road with Quan Baoya to withdraw money.

Gu Cheng and Pan Jieying were waiting downstairs, and Quan Baoya went upstairs alone. Ten minutes later, he was holding a small kun bag in his hand.

Inside were thirty stacks of cash.

Gu Cheng took the bag, didn't look at it, lowered his head and said, "You find someone to tell Han Geng, and ask him to look for me at the COSTA café at the door of the company the night after tomorrow." ”

Quan Baoya was puzzled: "But why delay one more day? ”

"It's useless for Han Geng to come in person, he will definitely call his father to come together, and he will always leave time for others to buy air tickets. ”

Quan Baoya didn't say anything more, and wrote down the time and place of Gu Cheng's appointment, and the three of them said goodbye.

Pressing the floor button and watching the elevator door close, Quan Baoya squatted down weakly, holding her hair with both hands and crying.

"I didn't expect you to be such a person! I thought you were forced to give up your dreams, but it turned out that you took the initiative to make music and become popular together!"

……

Cheongdam-dong is far away from Jamsil Museum, separated by a small half of Hancheng City, so it is said that you should take a taxi back to the hotel.

But Gu Cheng was in a panic and needed to take a walk.

Pan Jieying also walked back to the hotel with the press road.

She didn't know how to speak, so she pondered and said, "I can feel that since you said that you left the company because you extorted Han Geng's money, Xiaoya's attitude towards you has become much more indifferent. ”

Gu Cheng sighed: "It is necessary." ”

Pan Jieying was not angry: "Could it be that she has a good relationship with Han Geng, so she is like this?"

Gu Cheng smiled bitterly: "Don't guess, Xiaoya and Han Geng don't know each other very well, she just hates me because of iron and steel." She is an idealistic person who likes to make friends with people who don't forget their original intentions. When I was first expelled, when I met her brother again, she gave me a stinky look.

But at that time, she thought I was impulsive and forced to leave, and finally reconciled. Now that she knows that I have been planning all this for a long time, she must be very uncomfortable. ”

When Pan Jieying heard this, she also sighed in the wind, and called out to Yue Chang: "Ah Cheng, there is something I want to ask you." ”

Say. ”

"Do you have any dreams, or do you have any original intentions - or do you just want to make money in this life? ”

"Of course there is, money, but only means. I need primitive accumulation. ”

Pan Jieying asked tightly: "Then what is your ideal now? You haven't confided in anyone yourself, how can others understand you?" ”

Gu Cheng was asked, he had been brewing for a long time, and he couldn't organize the wording.

Of course, he knew what he wanted to do in this life, and his sense of purpose couldn't be clearer.

The problem is, he couldn't explain it in words that a person from 2000 could understand - there were too many dragon slaying techniques involved, too many pre-tech trees that hadn't been lit up yet.

"It's hard to explain this in a word, so I'll pick a simple one. Gu Cheng thought about it, and said after consideration,

For example, Jeff Bezos, the owner of Amazon, once discovered a phenomenon: after entering the Internet era, the threshold for the spread of books has been lowered many times.

In the era of paper books, a book needs to sell at least 5,000 copies before it can be published, and most of those below this number are written in vain and buried in old papers. In the era of e-books, maybe 500 people can barely let the author survive by paying to read it - more than half of the sales on Amazon are supported by niche needs, personalized needs, and independent needs.

Except for books, the other fields are similar. The original intention of the founder of E-BAY was not to compete with physical stores for business and price wars. Rather, it was because he wanted to buy a specific, limited-edition jewelry box for his wife, and he couldn't get it at all the jewelry stores in Los Angeles. In the end, Chong Guan became angry and set up an E-BAY network - his purpose is to make no matter how niche the demand, as long as there is it in this world, then the supplier and the demander can find each other.

In the traditional era, due to the limitation of physical space, the same product can only be met by a cold mass sales factory if there are hundreds of people in a physical community. In the age of the Internet, as long as there are hundreds of people on the whole planet, this demand can be gathered and promote the construction of customizers. ”

The concept laid down by Gu Cheng was historically known as the "long-tail effect" until 2003 when it was proposed by Chris Anderson of Wired magazine.

Now, this thing has not been summarized, and Gu Cheng can only explain it clearly by way of examples.

Pan Jieying naturally felt very novel and barely understandable when she heard it.

And what Gu Cheng was going to say later seemed to her to be more and more fanciful.

"I'm going to do a similar thing. However, I focus on the entertainment industry and the content industry: in this world, millions of hours of independent films will be made every year, hundreds of thousands of music and novels will be created, and tens of thousands of games will be developed.

However, it only adapts to the backward business model of the industrial age, but it cannot help these creations find their demanders, forming a huge waste of creative resources, and forcing them to become routine dogs. On the other side, there are billions of consumers shouting: 'There is a shortage of books, there is a shortage of shadows, there are no games to play, they are all pigs following the trend, they are all routine dogs!'

Don't you think it's too ridiculous to have such a world? Don't you think we need someone to save the entertainment industry in this world? When will our search engines be able to accurately customize each person's personality instead of crumpling everyone into a cold statistical number?

The traditional industrial era brings the efficiency of mass production, the side effect is standardization, and what is sacrificed is individuality. The needs of consumers are crumpled into a blur by market research reports. The high development of the Internet in the future is destined to help human beings regain the lost customization, individuality and niche under the condition that the additional cost is not too high.

My life's goal is to create such an efficient platform to reintegrate the world's individual literary and artistic needs and individual creative resources. Wouldn't this be more meaningful than me writing hundreds of famous songs and legendary movies myself? Even if I traded more record sales and Grammy Awards than Michael Jackson and more Oscars than Cameron and Spielberg to exchange for my career, I wouldn't change it! Because what I want to do is be the real savior. ”

Pan Jieying was deeply shocked by Gu Cheng's brain hole, and an illusion of the bird's ambition to know the great bird arose spontaneously.

She felt that there was a vision in front of her: Huh, why is Brother Xiao Gu glowing?

"You...... Is it possible to do what you said in the future? But I don't see the direction of effort or the means to implement it. ”

"Of course it was possible. Gu Cheng cut off straight, and then swallowed the second half of the sentence back into his stomach.

The swallowed half of the sentence is: In 2006, there will be a professor at the University of Toronto named Jeff Hinton, who later surpassed Alan Turing, invented a neural network architecture called "deep learning", and finally realized a super artificial intelligence assistant after 30 years of development. No matter how small the owner's needs are, the AI assistant of that era can find what the owner wants.

It's just that Pan Jieying won't believe these things.

Fortunately, Pan Jieying has always believed in her brother's ideals, even if it is a straightforward decision without too much explanation, she is willing to believe it.

The sister and brother were silent for a long time, and finally Pan Jieying asked unwillingly: "Since you have such a grand idea, Xiaoya misunderstood that you are a greedy person just now, why don't you explain?"

Gu Cheng's answer was very shameful: "She didn't ask, why should I explain." ”

Pan Jieying was crazy for a while, feeling that she was about to break her heart: "Ahhhh

"It's useless to take the initiative -- you almost didn't understand these words from a 20-year-old college student, and do you expect a 13-year-old junior high school student to understand them? What's the point of explaining, even if the world misunderstands me, history will always prove me right. In a few years, she won't misunderstand me. ”

Gu Cheng's character is too arrogant in the final analysis.

How can a person who once served as a "cold president" explain to others in a lowly manner? The truth is always in the hands of a few.

In addition, although he was a big scumbag with hundreds of people in his previous life, he actually didn't love any woman at all - he just played with them.

Of course, it is a play of thieves and principles.

He only plays with women who voluntarily objectify themselves who come to the door and voluntarily objectify themselves. And I will never sleep with a female SOLO artist, or other female creators who work their own, or a good family.

It will not persecute women.

Sincerely, he has been a human being in two lives, and he has never even had his first love. Emotionally, it's really naïve.

He is unruly in his bones, just like "evil in the east and crazy in the west". Jin Yong's Yang Guo is nothing more than that.

Pan Jieying didn't understand why her younger brother was blackened like this. But she can only accept this setting. Let's think it's because my younger brother experienced something bad in Dongyi in the past two years.

She felt so tired that she didn't bother to think about matching her cousin and Quan Baoya anymore, so let everything be natural for the time being.

(PS: There is just a passage from the acceptance speech of the Nobel Prize in Literature a while ago, which can be used to express the protagonist's pursuit in this chapter: Bob Dylan said that he sang to 50,000 audiences, and he also sang to 50 audiences.)

But he can make it clear: it's harder to sing to an audience of fifty.

Because when it is sung to 50,000 people, 50,000 people are a mass of obscure objects, and they have only one need, in the way of the industrial age, which can satisfy them.

And when they are only facing fifty people, they will have fifty souls, fifty personality needs.

I think this passage is very suitable as a clarion call for the extinction of Xiaobai routines in the future era of artificial intelligence and personality push.

Recommend this book to your real-life friends, it's a book that you can take pride in reading it — as a real person, not a masked man hiding behind a computer or phone screen and not daring to show his true face when he reads the book. This is a unique advantage of this book compared with all other works in the Chinese online literature industry. ）
