Chapter 0276 - I Am the King of the World in the Field of Music
"We have achieved such impressive results, and there are still some self-righteous bricks howling in front of the media that we are cheating, questioning our results, you say that these people are not sick, and even some people themselves are opening record companies, and they actually jumped out to question our sales fraud, the reason is that such achievements are basically unlikely to appear in the Huaxia market, do they can't do what they can't do, it means that others can't do it, we ourselves are Huaxia people, sometimes I really don't want to say anything about our compatriots, But I think Mr. Bai Yang's "Ugly Chinese People" is really worth pondering about the revelation of some of our compatriots' inferior roots. Oriental jealousy', commonly known as pink eye, once you do what they can't do, or what you can do but haven't done all the time, these people's eyes will immediately become rabbit eyes, red, just say some cynical words, it's best if everyone is lowered to the same level as them, or lower than their level, so that they feel that this is normal, and they will feel that society is harmonious and life is beautiful. Zhao Wenhao said indignantly: "Sometimes I see those so-called brick families pretending to be righteous and righteous in the media, I really want to go up and smoke them, obviously they are a group of male thieves and female prostitutes, they have to pretend to be sanctimonious, and they also want to seize the moral high ground, as if they have a conscience in this world, as far as their authority is concerned, what they suspect is reasonable, and if others refute it, it is a quibble." Who the gave them confidence? ”
"Yes, even if we have achieved such good results in the Southeast Asian market, there are still people who have jumped out to question us, saying that we are suspected of hype," Li Jie was also a little indignant, and said: "Watching the news in recent times is a very tangled thing, on the one hand, we feel excited about the music myth created by Star Entertainment, and on the other hand, we will also be in a bad mood because of the remarks of these clowns." ”
Meng Xinghui glanced at the audience and said with a smile: "As the saying goes, after becoming famous, slander will follow, our Star Entertainment has been in such a big limelight during this time, I don't know how many people's nerves have been affected, if no one jumps out to scold you a few words at this time, sweep away your interest, isn't it too inconsistent with the consistent habits of this society?" For anything, as long as there is a place of interest, there will inevitably be all kinds of people waiting for the opportunity to move, the music market is such a big piece of cake, it will naturally bring together all kinds of people with various purposes, and now it is clear that our new small company is riding the momentum, you look at the current record sales market, in addition to the achievements created by our company this year, are there any other strong voices? The overall market is so sluggish, and we have created such a sales myth in a sluggish market environment, how can you make them look at this matter calmly? Isn't this a naked slap in the face? Does this tell the world how incompetent they are? This kind of humiliation is more serious than anything else, and it is more lethal than anything else, I can put it here, our way to success is not something to be ashamed of, they are also very aware of this, first of all, they can't make such music, they don't have high-quality works, it's a dream to create such a performance, and secondly, they can't win huge social attention and exposure like Star Entertainment in a short period of time, these two most basic points they can't reach, so they can't replicate our successful road, Since they will never reach such heights, what else can you do with them except to jump over the wall and scold the street like a shrew? We have to give people a way to vent, if people can't learn to comfort themselves, then it's easy to collapse. ”
Huang Yiyun said with a smile: "Yes, if they question it, they will question it, and we are not obliged to prove it to them, love to believe it or not, we just need to make a fortune in silence." ”
Mei Ruohua shook her head and smiled helplessly: "This circle is like this, I dare to guarantee that if we don't respond to this matter, someone will soon say in the media, saying that we Star Entertainment are empty-hearted, why are we empty-hearted?" Because we are indeed fake, otherwise why not respond? If you really respond, then they will be even happier, and even some people still want you to sue him and go to court with him, so that he will be equivalent to entering the public eye with the popularity of Star Entertainment, which is the real clever hype. So for these people, don't ignore them, the biggest counterattack is not too completely ignored, if you puff out your cheeks and compete with these people, it is right in their arms. ”
Meng Xinghui nodded and said: "Mr. Mei, for this matter, you can hold a special press conference to report on our album sales problem, just to report, not to respond to any so-called brick questions and provocations, if they have the strength, let them toss hard, although we don't rely on this level of controversy to maintain attention, but if someone takes the initiative to contribute to the topic, we will not refuse, let them toss if they want toss, we just ignore it." ”
"Okay, I'll take care of that." Mei Ruohua smiled: "I will use enough evidence to support the real surname of our sales, because this is related to the word-of-mouth of our Star Entertainment, we want fans and fans to believe us, as for these bricks believe it or not, seriously, who cares?" ”
After a few people talked, the atmosphere suddenly relaxed a lot, like Zhao Wenhao and Li Jie and other relatively angry executives also calmed down, they didn't do anything in the first place, but they were angry at those so-called experts who didn't know the real situation at all, obviously you did it, and you worked hard for it, but these people don't say that you brag, you don't rely on improper means, isn't this purely to find a blockage in people's hearts? Mao Taizu said that there is no right to speak without investigation, who gave these people the right to question and attack others on the basis of no investigation? When did this society become what it is now?
What they don't know is that, in fact, the vast majority of these people don't care whether the things they attack are real or not, what they are keen on is the attack and questioning itself, which can bring them enough attention, as for whether these things are true or false, who cares? You let them investigate, and they are fed? Even if they know that your sales are real, these people will crusade against you on behalf of the moon in front of the media.
If you don't, how are you going to let them survive?
"Mr. Meng, several music companies in South Korea and Yueben have contacted us and said that they want to buy the rights of some songs in our album, and your single "Green Meeting" advocating environmental protection has even begun to pay attention to the United Nations environmental protection organization, and is ready to be translated into the English version of the world, and will be sung to the world as the theme song of environmental protection, what do you think?" Huang Yiyun has had a lot of happy events recently, and since the album was released, she is also the busiest one, and the special line phone is almost burst.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the cycle of good surnames, what we want is such an effect," Meng Xinghui said with a smile: "The proposal of the environmental protection organization is naturally good, we who make music, we can't just write some songs of love and love, like this kind of music that pays attention to the environment, peace, animals, children, and public welfare, and should be the focus of the creators. However, the song "Green Meeting" uses anthropomorphic techniques, allowing some representatives of green plants in nature to hold a meeting, and explain the destruction of the natural world by human beings from their perspective, which is a helpless feeling, but also a sad accusation, so that the listener empathizes, and at the same time deeply reflects, this song is very good, very moving, and the theme is also profound, so it can make the United Nations environmental protection organization look at it, I think, the music form of our star entertainment should be expanded to this aspect more, others have done, We want to do better, what others have not done, we must do, and we must make something different! I agree with the adaptation of this song into the English version, but you tell them that it must be sung by me, for this kind of thing, we Star Entertainment must participate strongly, or we Chinese people must participate strongly, don't get to the end, take what we wrote, ask a foreigner to sing, after a while, Westerners only know the foreigner who sings, don't know our Star Entertainment, and don't know that this song is from China! Haven't Westerners been demonizing us in China, saying that we are ignorant and backward and destroying the environment, we just want to let them know that we are no different from them, we have the same heart to care about the environment and care for the environment, and we are like them, yearning for a green earth! ”
"Good! I know! Don't worry, Mr. Meng, I will definitely make this request clear to them, so what if they don't agree? Huang Yiyun said.
"If you don't agree, refuse to give them the right to adapt, I use Huaxia, I can sing this song to the world, we don't need to touch their light, sometimes these Westerners will have a sense of superiority, they will feel that giving you this opportunity is to support you, you should feel honored, let their inexplicable superiority to hell, I want to make them clear, I give them the right to adapt, they should feel honored, this is they come to beg me, not us to rush to beg them!" Meng Xinghui waved his hand domineeringly, and said arrogantly: "Just like James. Cameron said that he is the king of the world in the film industry, I am the king of the world in the music industry, they begged me for granted, and they will definitely make it a habit to beg me in the future! ”
Listening to Meng Xinghui's domineering words, looking at his momentum like an emperor dominating the world, the executives attending the meeting were all in awe, and at the same time felt admired, how did this young man in his early 20s grow into the current pattern, this is really a puzzle to understand, his rise roared with a thunderous momentum, so that everyone was not prepared at all but had to accept that in just half a year, he has gone from a grassroots student at the bottom, Growing into a god-like being, such a speed is unprecedented, and it will be difficult to replicate in the future, and his success does not have a universal surname, nor can it be used as an example on the path of human success, because he is a unique and unrepeatable genius in this world.
"As for the question of Korean singers asking for adaptation rights, I don't have any opinion on this, everything is done in accordance with the rules of the market, you can take as much as you want, don't talk about those hellish faces, how many good things have we given to these foreigners in Chinese history, as a result, these white-eyed wolves are not only ungrateful after inheriting the past, but also repeatedly compete with us for what cultural sources, to deal with such people, you must not tell them what great country etiquette, you have to calculate it clearly every penny, if you want it, you can use the money to buy, As long as the price I pay satisfies me, it's okay to use the copyright, you don't need money, give it to them without knowing it, and in a few years, they will probably say that you plagiarized their copyright. Don't think that these people can't do it, some of them can do anything shameless. Meng Xinghui paused for a moment and continued: "However, which singers come to sing to show me, I remember a Korean singer once said that only when there is no money to spend will they want to get a Chinese performance, for singers who hold this kind of tone, no matter how much money they give, they can't sell it, I hope that the Korean singers who sing my songs, although they can't ask how noble their quality and morality are, at least there can't be any arguments that discriminate against Chinese people in public, and insults and opposition are even worse." ”
Huang Yiyun said solemnly: "Don't worry, Mr. Meng, I will be strict." In addition, a few Hong Kong singers have also come to ask about the adaptation rights of Cantonese, do you have any suggestions? ”
Meng Xinghui immediately said: "Hong Kong is our own place, everyone is a compatriot with a strip of water, there must not be so many principles, if you want to, sell it to them, but the image of the singer should not be too negative, what involves the * photos * door, take * drugs Those singers are exempt, my Meng Xinghui's music is not made for them to sing." ”
Huang Yiyun smiled and said, "Of course, do you have any New Year's plans for the future work of our music production department?" Take this opportunity to tell us a little bit about it. ”
Meng Xinghui pondered for a while and said: "My album market is currently saturated, and it is not appropriate to release new ones in a short period of time, although in such a situation, many companies may choose to make persistent efforts to launch new albums, which can also ensure good sales, but we Star Entertainment will never do this, because making money for us will always be put in second place, for the sake of money to do this kind of thing that hurts the brand image and hurts the long-term benefits, we must not do it, so I will lie dormant for a period of time in music, On the one hand, it can hang the appetite of fans and give them a sense of mystery to look forward to, on the other hand, you can also take the opportunity to accumulate life materials and brew new songs, however, the album of Yufei and the last year of the fairy tale must be launched in the first half of the year, because several of their singles have a very good response, so launching the album while it is hot is a strategy to follow the trend, for the songs of their albums, I will personally tailor them for them, you don't have to worry about this. And our TV series will be broadcast after the year, and it is foreseeable that the theme song episodes of the TV series will also be very popular, and when the time comes, these songs can be made into an album and put on the market, I believe there will be many fans of the drama to collect. ”
"There is also the arrangement of the concert, the focus of the second half of the year is the concert, my own concert must be held, when and how to arrange it, let's discuss it carefully when we go back to the company for a meeting, but this matter must be one of the highlights of your New Year's work plan."
"Really? Mr. Meng, are you willing to hold a concert? I thought you wouldn't. Huang Yiyun smiled, she actually wanted to ask Meng Xinghui this question, but it was not easy to say, because for the release of an album, holding a concert is a more complicated and laborious thing, especially for the singer himself, it will be very hard, at least you have to travel all over the place, you have to sing on the stage for a few hours, in the case of a sluggish record, the concert has become the main form for singers to make money, and more importantly, a singer has a status in the circle, often to see the scale and location of the concert, For example, in Hong Kong, how many performances a certain singer has performed in the Red Pavilion and how many people have purchased tickets can directly determine his status and value.
With Meng Xinghui's status in today's pop music industry, it is inconceivable not to hold a concert, and even the whole Asian and world tours have this qualification, but this singer is no one else, he is the boss of Star Entertainment, and he is now a super-rich man worth tens of billions of dollars in the mainland. Besides, it's so hard, so Huang Yiyun has never been embarrassed to mention it.
At this moment, seeing Meng Xinghui take the initiative to mention it, he couldn't help but feel overjoyed.
In fact, Meng Xinghui is indeed indispensable for holding concerts, he neither needs to rely on the scale of the concert to prove his status in the rivers and lakes, nor does he need to hold concerts to make money, but if he wants to quickly accumulate the entertainment index, the concert is the fastest, the last time he performed at the welcome party of Zhonghai University, he got 1000 points of entertainment index, and opened seven or eight concerts in a row, and the 10000 points of entertainment index required for upgrading was done?
It's just that this reason is not enough to communicate with outsiders anyway, anyway, when he holds a concert, Huang Yiyun is happy, Star Entertainment is happy, his fans are even happier, everyone takes what they need, isn't it good?
