There are good and bad sounds, but the vast majority of people have at least figured out one thing - in the context of the digital age, the Chinese music scene, or the pop music scene around the world, has a big deal. There are more and more people who want to become famous, and there are more and more singers who become famous overnight, but the production of good works has not increased, and what is worse is that even if people all over the world take off their pants and hurry up for the survival of the human pop music industry from now on, until these children can afford to pay for music, they will have to wait at least nearly 20 years.

This is a very cruel truth, but Wang Kefan said that he has a way to solve it.

Nearly 20 hours after the first concert made musicians all over the world very anxious. On the second day of the conference, a large number of foreign musicians rushed to Tangcheng City, intending to observe the venue.

In recent years, Wang Kefan's existence has seriously disrupted the normal order of the foreign music market. Take Italy, Wang Kefan's Italian-language album, there are a total of 15 songs in it, 7 songs are actually in Chinese, according to the meaning of the European Union, Wang Kefan's practice is pure dumping, originally killed can not let Wang Kefan's album in, and Wang Kefan's attitude is rigid - you love to buy or not, do not like to import to pull. As a result, the government could not fight the fans, and the Italian government chose to surrender under the protests of millions of fans.

As soon as the Italian government fell, the rest of the European Union fell with it. For a time, Europeans bought Wang Kefan's album and had to listen to half of the Chinese songs, so that now the Confucius Institute is thriving in Europe. In order to understand the meaning of the Chinese lyrics written by Wang Kefan, those fans are now very enthusiastic about learning Chinese.

The government hated Wang Kefan. Musicians hate Wang Kefan more than the government. In other words, Guo Degang is really right, only between peers and peers, that is the real hatred. As for Wang Kefan, who steals people's jobs, it seems that many singers in Europe should be pulled out to play little JJ to death.

It's another thing to hate and learn from it.

Europe, the United States, and China, like China, are now experiencing this market problem. Thanks to the better education that Europeans received from an early age, otherwise there would not have been much fewer musicians who committed suicide in recent years than in China.

In the midst of many calls, the second session of the joint conference finally began.

Speaker: Kefan Wang, tenured professor at Stanford University.

As the top priority of the conference, Wang Kefan attached great importance to this speech. Today's speech will undoubtedly be the most important one of his lives so far, and there will be no one. In order to maintain 100% energy. He didn't even make out with Guo Yujing last night. For Wang Kefan, who has not changed his habits. This speaks volumes about the nature of today's event.

The venue of the conference was changed to the largest conference room in the hotel, and the participants were much smaller, and most of the stars were gone, and only about 30 people came. Most of the others are managers of major record companies or brokerage companies, or they are directly from the big bosses.

However, the number of media has increased again. The meeting room was filled.

Wang Kefan stood in front of the podium. Behind him hung a projection screen that was not much smaller than yesterday.

After a simple opening remark, Wang Kefan went straight to the point.

"My approach is simple, league-based."

Three Chinese characters were typed on the projection screen. The Chinese at the scene were all puzzled, and the foreigners were busy asking the interpreter what it meant, and as soon as they heard the interpreter, they immediately shook their heads.

"What is this going to do?" The representative of Rock Records couldn't help but ask, "And it sounds no different from the draft!" ”

Wang Kefan smiled slightly and said: "Indeed, at first glance, it looks very similar to the process of the draft, but in fact it is qualitatively different. ”

Wang Kefan pressed the mouse, and the picture on the projection screen behind him changed.

"Sign up, compete, get a place and points, and move up to the next level. The specific game operation is indeed like this. However, the details in the middle are completely different from the draft. First of all, there is a threshold for our registration, and it must be recommended by TV stations and professional organizations to be eligible for registration, in other words, only professionals or personnel with professional quality can register. ”

"So what about non-professional musicians? Isn't this an upward channel that isolates the music industry? Gao Xiaosong asked.

"This brings me to another design I have, the tournament classification system." The picture behind Wang Kefan changed again, "I divide the game into four levels, A, B, C, D, of which the first division league will not only be held in China, but also a few more competition locations when the time is ripe to hold a transnational world super league."

Specifically, the lowest level of the D League, I set it as a competition that can be participated in by anyone who loves music, of course, the requirements for entry qualifications remain the same, but think about it, there are so many studios nowadays, there should be many institutions that can provide this qualification, right? So as long as there is this level, it is impossible to isolate the upward channel of new singers and grassroots singers. The D-League can be held anywhere in the world, and I'm going to set up an organization dedicated to licensing tournaments, at least with a certain amount of royalties paid in our regional offices. ”

"Wait, how can you be sure that someone will come and pay you this fee? Also, what do the people who hold the competition, and the singers who participate in the competition, make a profit? Song Ke raised his hand and asked.

Wang Kefan replied: "In addition to paying patent fees, the requirements for holding the competition are at least 1,000 spectators. Teacher Song Ke, think about it, who will participate in this kind of small competition? Professional singers, you should disdain to participate, right? So all that's left is the new bunch of newcomers, most of whom are students, and are best suited to come to this kind of competition. Tickets for the competition, I will die at the price of 10 yuan, students who are willing to participate in this kind of competition, basically there will be a group of good classmates, even if there are no classmates, there will be no fewer relatives at home, everyone spends ten yuan to support their relatives, most people should not be reluctant, right? ”

Song Ke nodded, and Wang Kefan continued: "As for profit, it's even simpler. For 1,000 people, the ticket fee is 10,000 yuan, and we only charge 2,000 yuan for the patent fee, of which 1,000 yuan is the prize money for the champion of the competition, and the organizer of the competition can get a net income of 8,000 yuan. ”

"And what about the profits of those players?"

Wang Kefan asked with a smile: "Teacher Song Ke, do you think that the players who go to participate in this level of competition, they are going for the prize money?" Or are you running to become famous? ”

The Chinese in the entire conference room chuckled, after the Chinese laughed. The foreigners also responded with a few cacks.

"Tournament at this level. The original intention was to select people who are suitable for singing to participate in the professional league and make the players profitable, which is neither our purpose nor the purpose of the vast majority of players. Wang Kefan then explained. And in order to allow people to have a wider upward channel. We do not have any restrictions on the number of games, locations or restrictions on the D-League. As long as there are 20 registered players, the competition can be held anytime and anywhere. ”

Everyone couldn't help but nod, this arrangement. It is true that new opportunities have been given to the maximum.

"Let's talk about the promotion, the promotion I designed is a point system, and the points come from the votes of the audience, and the score value depends on the official rated ticket price of each game. For example, if you want to be promoted from League D to League C, you need 10,000 Pro Points, which means that 100 spectators are willing to vote for you.

The spectator seat of the D League envisages 1,000 seats, that is, there are 1,000 spectators, and there are 20 players, and each spectator can only vote for one person, and each person gets an average of 50 votes, that is, if a player's level is above the average of the players, then as long as he participates in 20 games, he can advance to the third division. Oh, by the way, to add, in the fourth-level league, players in the A, B and C leagues can get the appearance fee paid by the organizing committee, while to participate in the D-level league, players need to pay the organizing committee an entry fee, 100 yuan per person each time. ”

The bosses in the conference room couldn't help but laugh again, the function of the D-League is not only to eliminate the people who should be eliminated.

"Everyone knows that in general, in a competition, a few people who sing particularly well can get a lot of votes, and the people who sing the worst will realize that they are not suitable for eating this bowl of rice after a few games, which will reduce the probability of tragedy in the future."

"According to what you say, a ticket is only ten yuan, and it is easy to cheat and advance!" Takakomatsu Road.

Wang Kefan said: "People who are willing to spend 10,000 yuan to buy themselves into the C-level league must be people who are not short of money at home. As for other players, if there is a shady scene in the local area, you can go to other places to compete, and the D-level league is not limited to the number of games and locations, if a person really has the potential to be a singer, go to a few more places, and still be able to advance, so this kind of cheating will not cause imaginary unfairness at all. ”

At this moment, the conference room couldn't help but be quiet. Wang Kefan's small means easily resolved the shady problem that has always been a headache, which made a group of business managers in the room dumbfounded.

Wang Kefan didn't care, and said to himself: "Those who are promoted to the C-level league either have potential or have a good background, the latter don't need to worry about their livelihood, and the former don't need to worry about their future, so at this time, the ticket price has to be increased to 100 yuan, and the number of people in the audience must be at least 2,000." Starting from the third division, it is a professional league in the true sense, and the number, time and place of the competition are determined by the organizing committee, and the competition is also directly sponsored by the organizing committee.

My initial intention is to hold 50 League C matches a year in China. As for the promotion requirements, just like our sports league, the top 10 players in the league in terms of total points will be relegated if they are promoted and ranked in the bottom 15 in total points.

Under this system, those who relied on cheating before will easily be eliminated again, and the appearance fee we give each player is 200 yuan per game, and after a round of 50 games, it is 10,000 yuan appearance fee, at least there is no need to worry about the survival of individual players. ”

With such a humanized design, the people in the conference room naturally had nothing to say, and Wang Kefan continued to talk about the details of the next level.

"People who enter the second division league are at least equivalent to the current average singers, and in this level of league, advertising sponsorship is indispensable, and TV broadcasts are also indispensable. Same as the Third Division. The second division is also 50 games per year, but there is a limit to the number of times players can participate, that is, each person can only participate in a maximum of 30 games, and the promotion rules are that the bottom 10 players in the points are relegated each year, and the top 5 players are promoted.

The appearance fee is 200 yuan per person per game, but the top eight in each game won will receive additional prizes. The number of participants in the competition is also limited to 20 people per game, and the ticket price is 200 yuan per ticket, but the spectator seats cannot be less than 3,000 seats. The advantage of this is that if a player is not at his best. He'll earn about the same amount of money a year as he did in the third division. In this way, the thoughts of this part of people who can sing, but are not enough to become famous by singing, in the final analysis, this is another kind of elimination in disguise. ”

"Both protect. Eliminated again...... Pretty! ”

The representative of Nanyang Records couldn't help but sigh. Everyone heard the news. Soon they all reacted. Indeed, from the D-League to the B-League, Wang Kefan's measures adhere to two principles.

First. Absolutely no one who can afford it will lose the opportunity. Second, there is absolutely no illusion for those who are not suitable for this path. Let the market make the choice, let the audience be the referee, and let the bonus be reasonable.

Wang Kefan was a little surprised that this Singaporean reacted so quickly, he took a special look at the uncle with a smooth head, nodded politely at him, and then continued: "The format of the first-class league is different from the system of the previous third-class league. My idea is to follow the approach of professional basketball, dividing the First Division into regular and playoff rounds, with the regular season determining the top 32 of the year based on points, and the bottom five players being relegated to the Second Division. The playoffs are PK stations, which are still voted by the audience, with two wins in three games, and many voters, and finally determine the championship of the year. ”

The creative way of setting up the competition made everyone's eyes start to light up in the meeting room.

What does PK stand for? Ratings!

Especially the national championship that has been made after so many rounds, this is the national championship in the real sense, and the gold content is much stronger than the national championship hosted by XX Satellite TV!

Wang Kefan then threw a bombshell and said: "Since the competition has not started yet, all singers in the country now have zero points in this league, and I will start the competition from the D-level league until I win the national championship next year, because this year is really not enough time." Therefore, these four levels of the league, officially running in full, will start next year. When other countries start to decide the annual champions, I will invite the champions of each country to the tournament venue for the World Championship tournament with only PK battles, once a year. ”

The foreigners in the conference room were going crazy, and a white boss shouted, "NK, why do we have to accept your invitation?" ”

Wang Kefan said: "Because of all the patents of this league, I have already sent people to the United States, Europe, Japan and South Korea and other countries to apply for patents, if you want to do it yourself, you can, pay the patent fee first, 1 billion US dollars a year." ”

"NK, what's the difference between you and robbery?"

Wang Kefan said with a smile: "This gentleman, do you think the total profit of this kind of designed league will be less than $1 billion a year?" TV broadcast fees, advertising sponsorship, and tickets, so many shows, the degree of participation in the national audition, do you need me to show you this account? ”

The corners of the white boss's mouth twitched, and Wang Kefan followed up and said: "But this gentleman, in fact, I don't plan to sell this patent to you, for the sake of my global super league, I decided to eat alone, you should know my influence in Europe and the United States, and I also have enough funds to support me to promote this league to the world." Global problems must be solved by global methods, as for the money is all earned by China, this is just an accident, who called me Chinese? ”

Gao Xiaosong laughed and said, "Boy, are you sarcastic about me changing my nationality?" ”

Wang Kefan said: "If you don't change your nationality, the money won't reach you, and I don't plan to resell the patent to you anyway." ”

The audience laughed.

In the midst of laughter, Wang Kefan released the last slide.

W.M.S.A, a huge logo, made everyone present tremble.

In the World Music Super League, only arrogant Americans will always take the big head of W, and this time, it is Chinese.

Wang Kefan looked at everyone's stunned expressions and couldn't help but feel a little proud.

And the next thing is to get the Ministry of Culture. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please go to read. )
