Chapter 1418: The Red and Specialized Rolling Stone

Of course, there is another crucial factor in the reason why Daqian Entertainment has such a serious decline in performance, that is, Light and Shadow Supermarket was spun off from Daqian Entertainment and Daqian Culture, a new subsidiary.

Anyway, Daqian is used to Boss Jia's behavior of divesting a business at every turn and then setting up a separate company.

As the name suggests, Daqian Culture is a collection of all Daqian's businesses in copyright, the most important of which is the light and shadow supermarket, as well as various copyright authorizations.

These are also the two main profit directions of Daqian Culture.

The former relied on the sale of VCDs in the global market last year, and successively made a staggering profit of $1.8 billion. In the second half of 97, with the rise of MP3 and the emergence of online light and shadow supermarkets, relying on the way of selling MP3 songs, it made about 180 million US dollars, and as soon as Daqian Culture was established, the annual sales performance reached 2 billion US dollars.

In this regard, Daqian Entertainment said that it was very hurt, and these achievements should have been theirs.

When the president of Daqian Culture reported on his work, he told our Boss Jia about a small matter, that is, the people of Rolling Stone Records had proposed for the fifth time, hoping that their music could enter the light and shadow supermarket and be put on sale, so he asked Boss Jia if he wanted to agree to their request.

After all, almost all music companies around the world will put their music on the Internet Light and Shadow Supermarket for sale, after all, there is only one way to earn genuine MP3 music.

Although many other companies have followed suit and opened their own online music malls, because of Daqian MP3's monopoly position in the market at this time, and more importantly, Light and Shadow Supermarket has the world's most comprehensive music library, so other online music supermarkets are not opponents of Light and Shadow Supermarket at all.

Either it closes down within a few days of opening, or it stays where it is, with little profit to speak of, and this is the pleasant experience that comes with a monopoly of market position.

However, because of Rolling Stone's tough attitude in the lawsuit before, Boss Jia issued a blocking order very simply, saying that Daqian would never cooperate with Rolling Stone Records.

So although Rolling Stone Records quickly offered to put music on the shelves of the Light and Shadow Supermarket, it was directly rejected by Daqian very simply, at first Rolling Stone Records was still relatively tough, you don't want it, I don't serve it yet.

Soon, however, Rolling Stone discovered that the traditional cassette tape and CD market was beginning to explode and was replaced by a booming growth in the film music market.

This is also normal, after nearly 60 million MP3s have been sold worldwide, the vast majority of users, except for a small number of audiophiles, will definitely abandon the cumbersome tools such as tapes or CDs and embrace the more modern music equipment and experience.

Although the problem of MP3 piracy has not been solved with the emergence of official genuine stores, from another point of view, although the payment rate of genuine has decreased, because it is very convenient to download music, the number of users has increased a lot, and as a result, the total number has increased a lot.

Music companies all over the world have made a lot of money in the electronic music market because of this wave of MP3, and their revenues are much higher than before.

Only Rolling Stone Records, because it lost the MP3 market, caused the financial report to fall all the way, and there was even a huge loss in the entire 97 year, which made the entire Rolling Stone management go crazy.

Only then did they put down their faces and applied to the Light and Shadow Supermarket four times in just one week, even if Daqian rejected each time, they still applied unyieldingly, and each time their attitude and words became more and more humble, they were almost like dogs.

"That's it!" Boss Jia touched his nose, and then said, "Well, you tell the people of Rolling Stone that if they use Chinese Simplified in all aspects of the official website, media, products, etc. in the future, and add the prefix of Wanwan Province to the address of their company." ”

"In addition, when they publish all the copywriting involving the company's name, it must be famous as Huaxia Bay Bay Province Rolling Stone Records and so on."

"They have to hang the five-star red flag in all parts of their company, sing the national anthem when they go to work, and have a photo of the first mate of Marxism-Leninism."

"Also, all their artists, when introducing themselves, must also add the prefix that I am xxx in Huaxia Bay Province!"

"And ......"

……

Boss Jia put forward dozens of conditions in one go.

Finally, I would like to add that "we must send people to check regularly, otherwise the products will be removed from the shelves at any time." ”

Anyway, if Rolling Stone Records really does this, it will become a more popular and specialized enterprise than China's state-owned enterprises.

"This ...... Rolling Stone Records won't agree, after all, if they did this, those Wanwan's poisonous vegetables will ......" The president of Daqian Electronics wiped the beads of sweat on his head and said.

"It's their business whether to do it or not, we just have to put forward the conditions!" Boss Jia said domineeringly, he originally used these conditions to block the Rolling Stone Records, and he didn't expect anyone to agree.

As a result, I didn't expect that Rolling Stone Records actually agreed, they thought carefully for a week, and after the board of directors directly re-elected, they completely agreed to Boss Jia's request, and even passed the inspection of the Daqian inspection team later.

For the sake of other people's hard work, Boss Jia naturally couldn't break his promise, so he could only let the music of Rolling Stone Records be put on the shelves, but Boss Jia was very curious, if Rolling Stone Records did this, would the people in Wanwan Province tear up Rolling Stone Records.

Later, Boss Jia learned that after accepting the conditions, Rolling Stone Records directly moved the company's headquarters from Wanwan to Hong Kong, and even registered a new company in Hong Kong, making this new company the nominal head office of Rolling Stone Records, and the headquarters in Wanwan became a branch.

At this moment, even if there is something unhappy on Wanwan's side, there is no way to take Rolling Stone Records, and Wanwan doesn't even dare to toss Rolling Stone.

Because Rolling Stone Records still pays taxes to Wanwan through the Wanwan Branch, if Wanwan tosses Rolling Stone, then Rolling Stone will directly transfer all business and taxes to Hong Kong.

Anyway, it's a matter of paying taxes to whom, it doesn't matter. Moreover, in a cultural company like Rolling Stone Records, people's assets are intangible, and Wanwan can't detain assets even if he wants to, you have the ability to detain those songs!

All in all, Rolling Stone Records became the first popular and professional model in Wanwan Enterprises, and later for the United Front, it even received a lot of domestic support, helping Rolling Stone Records to survive many crises, and directly opened the huge domestic market in the future, and its market value increased more than ten times in 10 years, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

Later, whenever the president of Rolling Stone Records mentioned this matter, he had to thank Boss Jia, saying that Boss Jia pulled them back into the right path, which made Boss Jia very painful, but he had to smile and encourage people to make persistent efforts, just don't be too locomotive.
