Sky.com's waiver of the economic claim does not mean that the Phonographic Association will also waive it. Cao Guowei finally negotiated the two industry associations with a compensation of 2 million, and Xilang.com also released an apology letter on the official website as soon as possible, as well as the news that it reached an out-of-court settlement with Sky.com, the Record Industry Association, and the Music Copyright Association.

The remaining two companies, Suhu and E, saw that Xilang had taken the initiative to soften, and under the pressure of investors, they had no choice but to put down their bodies and take the initiative to withdraw the lawsuit. If you wait any longer, the stock will shrink and wait for delisting, and the company will not have the remaining funds to buy back shares to save the falling market.

Of course, Zhang Chaoyang of Suhu still had to use IDG as an intermediary, and the three parties sat together happily and amicably reached a settlement agreement. The cost is less than that of Xilang, Speed Fox is developing its own Chinese search engine, of course, it is impossible to share all open technologies to you, only share some non-key technologies, after all, Speed Fox is now the first portal, there is still some strength.

Before doing OICQ, the two often drank tea and chatted together in Yangcheng, Chen Bo didn't expect that there were still these friendships between the two, and when OICQ was difficult, he didn't see Ding Lei lend a hand, but turned around and made a net E bubble.

NetE refused the cooperation agreement, preferring to spend money on licensing rather than providing their Chinese search engine technology sharing, and finally Skynet got 3 million music licensing fees, and the traffic and technology did not take advantage of it at all.

Chen Bo's victory this time was caused by a certain amount of chance, and it was also caused by the general environment. In the cold winter of the Internet, everyone is in danger, and they are not profitable. And Chen Bo also took the lead and took the lead. If you wait for another two years, several portals are in a profitable state, and the stock is soaring, if Chen Bo jumps out again, it will be miserable at that time, and he will be beaten back to his original shape in minutes. And even if it reaches Wall Street, at most there will be a shock in the stock, which will not have a big impact. Just like the news of Ali selling fakes in the future, but people's performance is strong and they can make money, Wall Street will sneeze, and the stock should go up or up.

The boiling music infringement case finally ended at the end of October with the victory of Sky.com, and both Sky.com and Chen Bo are well known to the people of the whole country. However, this time they did not prepare for the press conference again, but went straight home.

Chen Bo drove Guan Xin and Mo Fei to the capital airport, and he still had to stay to deal with the problem of Galaxy Entertainment, of course, he didn't tell the truth, and in exchange for Guan Xin's eyes. As soon as they arrived at the door of the hotel, they were caught by reporters squatting, and some reporters directly asked, "Why don't you continue to sue and choose to settle and withdraw the lawsuit, and you have to cooperate further." ”

Chen Bo replied lightly, "Children distinguish between right and wrong, and adults only look at the pros and cons." After briefly answering a few questions, he explained that he had to catch a plane before he got out of the circle of reporters.

The two were sent away safely, and Chen Bo rushed to the next destination.

Wang Jinghua gave Chen Bo a reply after thinking about it for two days, his conditions are difficult for people to refuse, and it has always been his dream to have his own professional brokerage company. The company's qualification certificates are in the process of registration, although according to the formal registration process, you must first have an office space, but what do you do as an agent for the registration of the company, this little thing will be given to you on your behalf. That's it.

When she came to the Seven Star Huadian Technology Group in Jiuxianqiao, Wang Jinghua was already waiting here, and she also brought a girl of the same age as Guan Xin. He is tall, fair-skinned, and looks very familiar.

After greeting Wang Jinghua, Chen Bo asked tentatively, "Are you Li Bing?" ”

Wang Jinghua smiled beside her, "You really recognize the wrong person, let me introduce you, this is Li Bing's sister Li Xue'er." A high-achieving student who has just graduated from Zhejiang West University of Media and Communication is very capable, and is now in charge of Li Bing's group business. ”

No wonder she is so familiar, her sister is Li Bing, who became popular from "Young Bao Qingtian" and established a first-line movie star position in big movies such as "Waiting Alone" and "No Thieves in the World". I didn't expect my sister to be a beauty, and my sister is not inferior to others at all, and the two of them look quite similar.

Chen Bo smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm sorry, you two sisters have one ice and one snow, and you really deserve to be girls from Ice City." ”

"It's okay, I heard Sister Hua say, Mr. Chen is worth hundreds of millions, and he is still the darling of the media circle, it is my honor to know you!" Li Xueer gives people the feeling of being down-to-earth and generous, and very cheerful. And being able to be so relaxed in front of strangers is a material to be an agent.

Chen Bo replied politely, "Your sister is proud to have a sister like you." ”

"Okay, you two don't compliment each other. Let's get down to business. Wang Jinghua saw that the time was not early, so she reminded.

The reason why I came to an electronic technology company is not because there is any business to talk about, but because there is a spare place here. Wang Jinghua originally wanted to find an office building in the city to rent, and it would be about the same for 100 square meters, but according to Chen Bo's concept, the rent in such a place is high, and the space is far from enough.

The Seven Star Huadian Group, located near Wangjing, was jointly established by six electronics factories: the former state-owned 700 Factory, 706 Factory, 707 Factory, 718 Factory, 797 Factory, and 798 Factory. After the completion of the reorganization, the entire company was left vacant with many of the original abandoned factories.

The well-planned factory grounds have a huge cast-in-place structure and bright skylights that are rare for other factories, and there are even many Bauhaus-style buildings designed and built in the early 19th century. This large area of idle factories has more room to play, and the rent is still much cheaper than in the urban area.

Not all of the large factories in the whole park are uniform, and there are large, medium and small buildings. The entire area is close to 600,000 square meters, and now only a small part is idle, and if it weren't for Chen Bo's intention to lease it, Seven Star Huadian really didn't know how to dispose of it.

"Isn't that too much?" Wang Jinghua looked at the spacious factory building of nearly 500 square meters and asked, and it definitely needs to be renovated again, and it also requires a lot of expenses.

"Big? I'm too young! "Chen Bodao" has two floors and a thousand square meters of space. We can carry out artistic design and decoration on the basis of retaining the original industrial style, and the first floor is used as a reception room, a display of company culture and a separate workshop, and our artist posters and trophy booths are hung on the walls. Chen Bo told them how to plan while watching, while Li Xueer wrote in a small notebook.

"There are a lot to do on the second floor, such as conference rooms, physical training rooms, and rehearsal rooms. And there is also a need for a professional studio to shoot photos for artists. ”

"Shouldn't all the magazines find photojournalists to take photos?" Li Xue'er asked curiously when she heard this.

"Every artist needs to be packaged, and the photos you send to other crews, newspapers, and advertisers must be perfect photos that match the image, and newspapers and magazines are just a set of photos that fit their theme. Even the photos of the press release must be reviewed by us before they can be published. The image of the artist is very important, and when the time comes, a few well-known photographers will be signed to be responsible for the shooting of the artist, and a dressing room is also needed to design the image of each artist in line with the positioning. ”

"Ahh I didn't expect there to be so much to learn here, so I thought I just needed to take a few nice photos. Li Xue'er's mouth was open, she thought it was a very simple matter, but she didn't expect it to become so complicated here in Chen Bo.

"Since we are a company, we must be professional, and we must pursue the perfection of details and afford all aspects. And there are a lot of things missing, this is only suitable for the workplace of actors and artists. We also need a rehearsal room for singers, and that needs to be a separate space, otherwise it will be too noisy here. ”

"Hmm... Right. Li Xue'er nodded and quickly recorded it in the small notebook.

"Isn't that a bit of a big expense?" Wang Jinghua didn't think it was bad, but she felt that the cost was a bit high.

"Don't worry, my sister Hua! If there is investment, there will be a return, and the loss will be mine! Chen Bo comforted her and said that there was no return for the expenditure.

After an afternoon of consideration, I finally rented a 1,000-square-meter duplex detached house, plus a 300-square-meter single-storey for music rehearsal rooms and simple recording studios. In addition, a small canteen of 100 square meters in the original industrial area has also been rented, and it is still relatively remote here, so you can't run out of two miles to eat.

The rent per square meter is 4 cents, the monthly rent of a place of 1400 square meters is 16800, and the rent for 1 year is more than 200,000 yuan. The commission of any artist can be earned, and the venue rent can be regarded as very cheap, Chen Bo directly signed a 5-year long-term contract. He originally wanted to sign for a longer period of time, and it would be better for ten or twenty years. He knows that this place will become the hottest 798 art district in China in a few years, and how many artists gather here. The company is located in this place, and the force will immediately improve a lot invisibly.

Moreover, Chen Bo also plans to separate the music station after the wireless service of Sky Network is stabilized, and also set up a base in this area, one south and one north. Now it's time to occupy a pit in advance, and do it easily, and the rent in the future can rise to the sky, and the rent for a month is much higher than that for a year now.

Find a decoration company and make a plan, if these jobs are handed over to Wang Jinghua, it is not impossible to do a good job, but it may not be to make it into a style like Chen Bo, and now Wang Jinghua also has her own work to do, that is, recruitment.

Wang Jinghua now has contracts with several artists such as Chen Daoming, Hu Bin, Cheng Qian, Li Bing, etc., each of whom has to be equipped with an assistant, as well as makeup, image design, planning and publicity, and company outreach and public relations. This is another self-made project after Sky.com, and everything is difficult at the beginning.
