Chapter 32: Only Surprises, No Disappointments

"Haha, young people have courage, and the future is promising!" Zheng Rongsen calmly accepted Chen Bo's sycophancy.

"I'd like to get exclusive electronic music rights for the next two years, and we'll do this in the form of a free license. Momoyo. Open the Chinese film library and singer information, and Sky.com cooperates with the online publicity and promotion of EMI Records. After the expiration of the contract, Skynet will purchase electronic music copyrights on a paid basis, and have the right of priority to renew the contract under the same conditions. ”

"Two years is too long, isn't it?" Zheng Rongsen shook his head with a smile while holding the coffee cup, and said, "If you say that a year is still about the same time. And your website doesn't have the slightest visibility right now, so it's hard for me to be reassured. ”

Zheng Rongsen was not stunned by his sycophants, and said the key point very soberly, although Chen Bo spoke very attractively, but he had not lost the ability to judge himself.

What an old fox, Chen Bo said in his heart, after all, he has worked hard in the mall for many years, and he is not stupid.

"Now that the Internet industry has entered a cold winter, the Nasdaq stock index has fallen repeatedly. Mr. Zheng should have heard of it even if he is not an insider, and it is precisely when everyone is in danger that we choose the cake of the music market. I expect that in two years, the Internet will pick up, and it will enter a period of rapid growth. How many netizens are there in the country now? 10 million is only a fraction of the population base of 1.3 billion, and it cannot support the entire electronic music market for the time being. ”

"And Skynet is actually acting as a pioneer of EMI to test the waters of new breakthroughs in electronic music and networking, if it is only a year, I am afraid that Skynet does not have enough capital support to buy the copyright. When the whole Internet enters the extreme mode again, I believe that Mr. Zheng can also foresee that the gains will outweigh the losses! ”

You have a good plan, I have a wall ladder. One year is such a short time, it's embarrassing to say. Anyway, when the time comes, I'll just get another website for you to download for free, and you'll have it. Chen Bo didn't say it explicitly, but only hinted that he didn't want to force people and be in danger.

Under the current law, even if Skynet is open for download, it is not illegal, and even if you file a lawsuit, it will be difficult for the court to obtain evidence. It is easy to avoid risks on the Internet, just add a reminder that all songs are uploaded and provided by individuals, and this site is not responsible for erasing them. This kind of rogue method has allowed many music websites to successfully evade legal sanctions in the early growth period.

Zheng Rongsen frowned when he heard this, and said in a deep voice, "Okay, just as you said." In just two years, you shouldn't let me down. ”

"I will only surprise people, not disappoint!"

"Haha, that's a good point! I see in you the shadow of who I used to be! ”

Chen Bo and Zheng Rongsen stood up and shook hands with each other, saying that they were happy to cooperate and indicating that the agreement had been reached. The issue of drafting the agreement is naturally handled by the in-house counsel of EMMOI, and it is just a simple licensing agreement that is not complicated. After Chen Bo read it, he signed it, went back to stamp the official seal of Sky.com, and then sent it back to Baidai, and the agreement could take effect.

Zheng Rongsen postponed the original plan and chatted with Chen Bo and Mo Fei while eating at the hotel. If you want to talk about music, people like Chen Bo who have incomplete five tones are completely burning the piano and cooking the crane and playing the piano to the cow. But Chen Bo is well-read and has a deep understanding of marketing, and the two of them can be regarded as sympathetic to each other, and the more they talk, the more speculative they become.

Mo Fei couldn't interject at all on the side, and secretly decided that he couldn't be a vase, and he must also reflect his own value.

On the way back when the two of them drove back, Mo Fei praised Chen Bo with great admiration, and his sycophants croaked.

"You don't say a word, stay safe. Hey, pay attention to the front of the compacting line... Hey, pay attention to the speed limit ahead. Chen Bo kept reminding him that he would not drive Mo Fei's car out for show.

"Chen Bo, you have to teach me well. Why can't I communicate with them like you? I originally thought that Young Master Ben would be able to capture at least as soon as he appeared, but I didn't expect ...... Ay. Mo Fei shook his head and sighed.

"You are talented, but inexperienced. Only by grasping his pain points and digging out his needs. With a little more speaking skills, you'll be fine. Other companies are still up to you, I believe you! I'll tell you more about it when I get back. Chen Bo didn't want to hurt his confidence, so he still gave encouragement to him.

In fact, this kind of negotiation skills can not be learned in textbooks, but from the accumulation of work experience. Anyone who has studied sales in the workplace can understand it, but some people use it very well, because it is not only necessary to talk, but also to judge the psychology of the other party, prescribe the right medicine, and grasp the rhythm.

Mo Fei is not a stupid person, Chen Bo is thorough at a point, and when he goes back, he tells him what to pay attention to. Other record companies still let him approach, and this time it went a lot better. Live up to expectations and win Warner, Rolling Stone, Sea Butterfly, Sony, BMG, Universal, PolyGram and other large records have already won the electronic copyright, basically monopolizing the copyright market of Chinese electronic music in the next two years.

If he is in Europe and the United States, he can walk sideways in the music market with these licenses, but in China, he still has to be a man with his tail between his legs. He actually stood in the same camp as the record company, but he was on the opposite side of the entire Internet industry.

The reason why the Internet has been able to develop rapidly in China is that it is carrying the banner of free and shouting the spirit of openness and sharing to break the ground. But in the end, you still have to pay for it, which is actually putting the cart before the horse, so that China's contemporary entertainment culture has to accept the invasion of foreign culture. Your domestic music market, video market, and publishing market have all been trampled into ruins by the Internet, and it is no wonder that you are not dead.

The Internet has indeed brought a lot of changes to China, making information more transparent and communication easier, which is the era of information explosion. Although Chen Bo is an Internet practitioner, he is eager to succeed and make more money.

But I don't want to see the barren state of Chinese culture, let alone this kind of Internet-style cultural revolution. Since we have the ability, we must work hard to protect the foundation of a culture and protect the jobs of more literary and artistic creators.

If it is at the expense of the Chinese entertainment and culture market, then he would rather not do it.

Mo Fei became addicted to talking about licensing, and successively took down the authorisation of some small companies. This is also a herd mentality, when you can't get a single authorization, even if you ask for it, others will not treat you differently. But if you get all the authorizations from the big international companies, then if they don't give the authorization, it's like they're at a loss.

Even if you don't ask them for it, they will rush over to deliver the authorization in the future. Just let them see the power of the internet and they will be impressed.
