The sun is shining brightly, the sky is cloudless, if you look down from the sky, Victoria Harbour Park on June 1 is like a big lake, the stage tent is like a reef, the green trees and grass are like aquatic plants, and the visitors are like fish, shuttling in groups.

F&Q's opening performance on the main stage lasted only an hour and a half, and ended at 11:30, when Zhang Xinjia and Hu Doudou, two idlers, bought two bottles of cold beer in the beer hall next to the stage, and then wandered to other stages to watch the performance.

"So-so." Hu Doudou took a sip of beer, shook his head and said: "I listened to the CD of this song of the Boiling Fish Band, and I felt good at the time, and I also wrote music reviews for them. ”

"Let's not mention the level of the band and the quality of the work, you look at the atmosphere." Zhang Xinjia drew a circle with the wine bottle and said: "At the beginning of F&Q just now, everyone indulged themselves with the music, and the atmosphere was very fanatical...... You see, although there are a lot of people, there are not many people who concentrate on listening to songs, chatting and chatting, playing with mobile phones, just leisure. ”

"F&Q is well-known, and there are a lot of brain-dead fans."

"There are so many people just now, and not all of them are fans of F&Q." Zhang Xinjia disagreed, and said: "Fang Xiao has an aura, when he stands on the stage, it is like the emperor standing on the Jinluan Palace, the momentum is very strong, and he is always the focus, you can't not look at him, you can't not listen to him, he almost didn't speak during the whole performance just now, and he turned the audience over with a raise of his hand." ”

"The aura is related to self-confidence, only people who are absolutely confident have a strong aura, they firmly believe that they are always right, invincible in the world, so they say one or the other." Hu Doudou stretched out his left hand. Learn Fang Xiao to raise it at 45 degrees, holding his voice and singing: "Forward forward, forward, our team ...... to the sun"

"It's cool for people to make it, but it's obscene for you to make it." Zhang Xinjia smiled, and then said: "It is indeed related to self-confidence, but it has to be added to dazzling achievements." Otherwise, you're a megalomaniac. ”

"Almost, Fang Xiao is indeed dazzling, it is impossible not to look up, and it should be that his aura is strong."

After lingering in front of the stage of the Boiling Fish Band for a while, the two went to a makeshift fast food restaurant to buy two boxes of food, then found a shaded grass, sat down to rest, and stood all morning, which was indeed tiring enough.

"It's not like a music festival. It's more like an advertising carnival. Zhang Xinjia threw the exhausted fast food box into the trash, stood on the edge of the shade, looked around for a while, and then walked back and said, "There are sponsor advertisements everywhere. ”

"Wang Haichao also wants to make money."

"The ticket money is enough for him to earn." Zhang Xinjia took out his mobile phone, looked at the news, and then said: "There are three venues for the music festival, Victoria Harbour Park is the main venue, and the old campus of HKU and the new campus of Nanjing Normal University are the branch venues. According to the Internet, there were 40,000 spectators in Victoria Harbour Park in the morning, and 300 tickets were tickets. You do the math. ”

"So many people this morning?" Hu Doudou questioned: "Last year, there were only 200 tickets for the opening of the festival, and I remember that the audience on the first day was less than 20,000. ”

"A lot of people are coming for F&Q."

"Wang Haichao is really good at doing business, so he invited F&Q over, today seems to be their first time participating in a commercial performance, right? Brother Zhang, you are well-informed, do you know how much the appearance fee is? ”

"I don't know. However, it should not be less than 3 million. Zhang Xinjia put away his mobile phone, sat down on the grass, and explained: "Last year, Wang Haichao found the veteran king An Zihua to be the opening guest and gave 3 million, and F&Q is now gaining momentum. The price should be higher, after all, Fang Xiao is a super-rich man with a daily income of one million, and if he has less money, people don't look down on him at all. ”

"Indeed, "2048" is already powerful enough, but I didn't expect that after Fang Xiao sold it for $50 million, he immediately made a "Little Bird", and in less than 20 days, the number of downloads exceeded 50 million, and he could collect $1670,000 a day by advertising, which is really enviable and speechless."

"Earn fast and spend fast." After all, Zhang Xinjia is mixed in the IT industry, and he is familiar with this aspect, he said with a smile: "Eye&Me and dragonfly music are very expensive, especially Eye&Me, which now uploads nearly 20 million photos every day, and has invested a lot in storage and bandwidth, and I also received news that Fang Xiao has poached Zhang Songlin, vice president of Weiji, and served as the CEO of Eye&Me." ”

"Is there such a thing?" Hu Doudou was surprised and said: "Zhang Songlin, I know that when several portals were in the war, he was out of the limelight, signed a bunch of celebrities, and smashed Weiji out, it can be said that without him, there would be no current situation where Weiji is dominant." ”

"Zhang Songlin is a person who focuses on strategy and tactics, and is a good hand at attacking cities and villages, but unfortunately he will only burn money and will not make money, and he has not made any achievements in terms of profitability, so he has not been very happy in Weiji in the past two years." Zhang Xinjia commented: "Fang Xiao poached him to be the CEO, and I am afraid that the money to be burned in the future will not be less." ”

"It's no wonder that Eye&Me has been going viral lately that Eye&Me is asking for fundraising."

"It's just a rumor, there shouldn't be financing in a short period of time, Fang Xiao's money in his hand can still hold up the situation, with Eye&Me's current momentum, one day of financing every night, the valuation may be millions of dollars higher."

"What is the current valuation?"

Zhang Xinjia raised his palm and said, "About 500 million US dollars." ”

"So much?"

"This is a very conservative estimate, if Fang Xiao sells it at a price of $500 million now, he will definitely be robbed." Zhang Xinjia explained: "Eye&Me has more than 10 million users, the scale has risen, and a prosperous social ecological environment has been initially formed. ”

After Zhang Xinjia finished speaking, he added: "You see that in the past month, in addition to celebrities who have opened personal accounts on Eye&Me, there are also hundreds of brands that have opened official accounts on Eye&Me, because the survey shows that young people prefer to use Eye&Me instead of Weiji, and pictures can also better show the corporate image and product details." ”

"I used to watch "Journey to the West", which said that it was a day in the sky. On earth for a year. Hu Doudou sighed and said: "Listening to you say this, I think it's a day in the world, a year online, and only a month's work." Not only is there an upstart upstart, but there is also a bit of a change of dynasty, Eye&Me is grabbing the throne of Weiji. ”

"The Internet world is like this, and Weiji has not been ...... for a few years"

The temperature was as high as 35 degrees Celsius that day, the scorching sun was scorching, and the heat was unbearable, and the two didn't have the heart to listen to music and watch singing, so after sitting under the shade of the tree and chatting for a while, Hu Doudou jumped up. He took off his sweaty T-shirt and threw it on the grass, saying, "I can't stand the heat anymore, I'll go over there and buy two more beers." ”

After a while, he came back shirtless, carrying two cold beer bottles, and stood in the shade of a tree, with his left hand raised sideways. Protect your chest with your right hand and take a straight step. Singing "Forward, forward, the responsibility of the warrior is ......", alternating back and forth twice, and then made a gesture of curtsiness and handed a bottle of beer to Zhang Xinjia. It made the people around him who were also resting in the summer laugh loudly.

Although Zhang Xinjia writes articles very spoofing, he is very serious in reality, he smiled and took the wine bottle and said: "You are in your thirties, and you have a wife and children." Still thinking about Jordan all day long? ”

"It has nothing to do with Jordan, it's just that these few lyrics have been wandering in my head, and I can't get rid of it if I want to." Hu Doudou raised the beer bottle, raised his head and took a sip, and then sighed: "Rock and roll meets red songs, which can be called thunder and fire, an absolute brainwashing divine comedy." ”

"Those songs in the 50s were originally written out for brainwashing, the words are simple, the songs are concise, and they are very suitable for the national chorus. Zhang Xinjia took two steps forward, jumped on the flower bed next to him, looked left and right, and then jumped down and said: "There are people everywhere, and there are 40,000 viewers on the Internet, maybe there are." ”

"It should be about the same, F&Q's influence is not covered." Hu Doudou bowed his head, he returned to the topic just now, and said with a smile: "When the whole audience sang "Socialism is Good" just now, I don't know what the officials and masters who came to watch the ceremony thought? ”

He held up the wine bottle and shouted: "Socialism is good, socialism is good, and the people of socialist countries have a high status......

The group of strangers, who were also shaded in the shade of the trees, sang along with him and laughed together.

"I didn't feel it at the time, but now I think about ......it," Zhang Xinjia took a sip of beer before saying: "When I sang this song, it was really a tsunami, and everyone was united, and I felt like I was back in the fifties, in full swing, and I felt like I was doing a lot of work." ”

"That's because you have a good mentality, I guess those officials saw this kind of scene, and their backs were full of cold sweat." Hu Doudou smiled and said: "You see the mountains and tsunamis, all the people are united, they see the shaking of their arms, and the people respond...... Brother Zhang, do you think F&Q will be banned? ”

"For what reason? People are singing revolutionary songs praising socialism, and if they ban them, wouldn't they be thieves and slap themselves in the face? Zhang Xinjia touched the wine bottle with him and said: "The current environment, the 50s are unimaginable, if our parents' generation listened to this song, it is estimated that they will be more deeply touched." ”

"At that time, people were simple, and they believed whatever they said...... Hu Doudou thought about it thoughtfully, and then said: "Fang Xiao, this guy, sang a bunch of red songs, and released an original song after the last, I can't remember all the lyrics of that song, I only remember a sentence 'Money is floating in the air, we have no ideals'...... Against the backdrop of a bunch of red songs, it is particularly profound. ”

"I can't remember exactly, I just thought it was the most rock-inspired song among all the songs written by Fang Xiao."

"Speaking of rock 'n' roll." Hu Doudou said with a smile: "When I was buying beer just now, I saw a group of foreigners asking where to buy F&Q's clothes, they didn't know that it was a red song, thinking that this was F&Q's new album, and they were all very excited, saying that this is the most authentic Chinese rock, cool, amazing shouting, laughing at me." ”

Zhang Xinjia also smiled and said: "F&Q's football song is very popular now, and it is not low in popularity in Europe and the United States, did you watch the Champions League final a few days ago?" At the opening ceremony, the fans sang "We-Are-The-Champions", and the scene was no worse than today. ”

"Look, how can you not watch the Champions League, this song and football are a perfect match!" Hu Doudou was amazed and said: "Fang Xiaozhen TM has business sense, after hearing that he wrote this song, he immediately sent someone to the United States to contact him, hugging Adidas's thigh, even if ordinary musicians write good songs, they will only think about how to release a record, and they can't think of doing it at all." ”

"Not to mention Adidas." Zhang Xinjia pursed his lips, motioned to him to look at a girl not far away, and said, "Look at the Coke bottle in her hand." ”

Hu Doudou looked back and stared, then stretched his neck, widened his eyes, opened his mouth, and made a cartoonish expression of surprise - on the bottle, there were seven words clearly printed: We are all good boys.

"Beauty, can you show me this bottle?"

"You want to see the words on it?" The girl held up the plastic bottle that no longer had Coke and gestured, "There are all kinds of words for sale over there, all of them are F&Q lyrics, and my classmates and I are going to collect one of all the bottles." ”

Hu Doudou handed the beer to Zhang Xinjia, ran to another cold drink store, and soon came back with two bottles of Coke, one with the words "I have no money, I am shameless", and the other with "Listen to me, I am the most wonderful generation".

"I originally wanted to buy a "Blue and White Porcelain", but I didn't find it, and it is estimated that it has been sold out."

Zhang Xinjia showed him the screen of his mobile phone, and saw that the official Coca-Cola verified account on Eye&Me posted a bottle sticker that read "Meet Lu", with the postscript: When you meet Lu, there is always Coca-Cola with you. There are hundreds of photos of bottles with different lyrics written on them......

"Someone sells empty bottles for 10 yuan on a shopping website, and 30 or 40 have already been sold."

"The left hand is one of the top 500 in the world, and the right hand is one of the top 500 in the world, and the momentum of F&Q is redder than today's sun." Hu Doudou was amazed and said: "Fang Xiao is really good, he can actually let Coca-Cola promote his songs." ”

"It's a win-win situation, Fang Xiao promoted his songs, and Coca-Cola reshaped the young image of 'cool' and 'personality'." Zhang Xinjia knocked on the Coke bottle and said: "This is a way of social promotion, you see, in a few hours, the Internet will be full of discussions and stickers about this Coke bottle, and every time there is one more discussion, it will make people feel more impulsive to buy Coca-Cola." ”

"I haven't drunk Coke in years, so I bought two bottles today, and I want to buy a few more." Hu Doudou looked at the Coke in his hand and said: "I don't know who came up with the idea of making Coca-Cola change the packaging that has not changed for decades?" (To be continued......)
