"No, what are you doing?"

On the way back to Jiangnan, Yang Jiuan suddenly used his mobile phone to watch "Heartbeat Signal", without looking at the picture, just listening to the voice to know which part she was watching.

"Don't do it, I just want to see what the masses say about what you've done - look! The barrage has all turned green! ”

Shen Yize glanced at the screen, and sure enough, when he and Yan Zhixi danced in line, the screen was full of green.

"How dare you green me!"

"How can I ......?"

"That's all said in the barrage!"

"It's not a big deal to watch the excitement on the Internet, believe it or not, when you and Feng Le are dating, these people will brush you again and give me green, and then we will have to change our names to environmental protection CP."

"Impossible!" Yang Jiuan swore an oath, "Nothing happened to me and Feng Le, I didn't even let him carry the bag!" How can it be like you, still hugging other people's waists, tsk, this small waist, it must feel very good, right? ”

"It's okay—"

"What did you say?!"

If he hadn't been driving, Yang Jiuan would have pounced on him with his teeth and claws.

Shen Yize hurriedly changed the topic: "You open the glove box and see what's inside." ”

Giving gifts is undoubtedly the most effective way to make a girl happy.

He had expected such a day, and he was witty enough to prepare in advance.

"Don't you want to change the subject!"

Yang Jiu'an said this, but his hand opened the co-pilot's glove box very sincerely, she remembered that the last time he hid a silver bracelet in it, what would it be this time?

A small red notebook with a long strip of notes sandwiched in it.

She recognized what it was at a glance and was pleasantly surprised: "The visa has come down?!" ”

Shen Yize calmly said "um".

In fact, it came down before the Spring Festival, but in order to save his life, he deliberately left it for her today.

Yang Jiuan took out his passport, and the ticket from Hudong to London was sandwiched in the passport.

She glanced at the ticket time: "We're leaving on Wednesday?" ”

Shen Yize nodded: "Yes, leave on Wednesday night and come back on Sunday morning." ”

"Is it with the goddess?"

"Of course, we have the same visa as Sister Ning, not only do we have to go and go back together, but we also have to stay in the same suite in the same hotel."

"Really? I share a room with the goddess?! ”

Yang Jiu'an couldn't help but be overjoyed, and the little depression before was instantly forgotten.

Shen Yize explained: "It's not the same room, it's the same suite, there are several rooms in it, you either live with Sister Ning's agent or live with me." ”

"I won't stay with you!"

"According to you, as long as it doesn't affect Sister Ning's rest."

Yang Jiuan immediately patted his chest and promised: "Absolutely not!" ”

Seeing that An An's focus had gone astray, Shen Yize smiled and continued to open the topic: "What is your impression of my parents?" ”

"Very good, uncles and aunts and your aunts and uncles, cousins and cousins...... Except for you, everyone in your family is very nice. ”

"Why other than me? Am I bad? ”

Yang Jiuan said seriously: "You are also very good, you dance very well." ”

“……”

"Okay, for the sake of my uncle and aunt being so good to me, I'll forgive you this time, and I won't take it as an example!"

Shen Yize glanced at her, saw her playing with the visa and air ticket over and over again, and said in his heart, Are you doing this for the sake of my parents? You're obviously looking at this ticket!

"And what is your family's impression of me?"

Yang Jiu'an asked.

"Do you need to ask? On Chinese New Year's Eve, you said that tofu was delicious, my aunt made tofu for five days in a row, and my mother continued to make it after returning home, you don't want to eat and don't say, all secretly clip it to me, and I'm about to vomit. ”

Yang Jiu'an was amused: "No, I really just said casually, who knew that your mother and your aunt were so enthusiastic, the key is to fill me with a bowl of tofu at every meal, where can I eat so much!" ”

"That's not because my mom and my aunt like you and want you to eat and live well and have fun."

"I know, that's why I'm embarrassed to refuse, I can't eat it, and I can't bear to live up to Auntie's kindness-"

Shen Yize interrupted: "So you can't bear to let me suffer, right?" ”

"Oh, I know Shen Shen is the best for me~"

“…… What are you smoking crazy? ”

This girl really can't be coquettish, Shen Yize only felt goosebumps.

"Shen Shen~"

"Don't call me Shen Shen......"

"Shen Shen~"

“yue——”

Sending An An home, he instructed: "Have a good rest, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, my schedule is full, so I won't pick you up from work." ”

Yang Jiuan immediately said: "You are busy with you, don't worry about me, we'll see you in London." ”

Shen Yize said angrily: "I don't care about you, can't you care about me?" ”

"Pipe, pipe, pipe! I'll go to your house to cook for you after work, and if you're too busy to come back, I'll send you to the company, okay? ”

"That's pretty much it." He opened his arms and said, "Hold one." ”

Yang Jiuan was in a good mood, obediently approached him in his arms, and then stood on tiptoe slightly and kissed him lightly on the cheek.

She looked at him and smiled: "Giving you another kiss, that's interesting, right?" ”

"What's the point of kissing your face, you have the ability to kiss your mouth."

"Think beautifully!" Yang Jiuan pushed him, "Go back quickly!" Work well and don't miss me too much! ”

……

After the Spring Festival holiday, the new year will officially begin.

Shen Yize returned to the company, and the January summaries of various departments were already lying in his mailbox.

Since its establishment, the company has achieved profitability for the first time last month, with revenue of about 140 million, expenditure of about 60 million, and total profit of more than 80 million.

Among them, 120 million of the 140 million revenue comes from Feifei Music's copyright licensing fees, which looks like a lot, but it is actually a quick money, spread over ten years, and it is only 12 million per year. However, this is a real amount of cash, not only to wipe out all of the company's losses to date, but also to make a surplus.

60 million yuan of expenditure, including expenses related to music production venues and equipment, Jiang Yining's overseas activity funds, and various small-budget drama investments.

Thanks to the success of Jiang Gehou's overseas albums and Zhuang Yi's brilliant performance at the National Entertainment Festival, the number of new employees hit a record high in January, and the company has also become an enterprise with more than 500 employees.

The independent video company invested by Golden Pin and Quanyu Film and Television is still in preparation, and the acquisition of an overseas music production company is also in the final stages, and if nothing else, the dust will settle this month.

In addition, "The Hidden Corner", jointly produced by Golden Pin and Youshi, has aired three episodes.

This suspense short drama under the banner of "The Original Cast of "The Silent Truth" won a high score of 9.0 petal score as soon as it was launched, and after a weekend of fermentation and Youshi's promotion, it ushered in an outbreak on Monday, and Zhang Dongsheng's sentence "Do you think I still have a chance" was even more popular on the whole network for a while.

The variety show "Daughters' Love" has also attracted much attention, and it has been broadcast for three weeks, and the number of broadcasts in the first episode has exceeded 60 million. As far as Shen Yize knows, Tengfei Video, Qiyi.com and various David TV channels will all launch new (gen) love observation programs within the year.

The planning team led by Zhao Hui originally engaged in a few plans for Lian Zong, but now they were urgently stopped by Shen Yize.

So many producers and broadcast platforms are following suit, it is a matter of time before this theme is played badly, and the company has enough copyrights for the two love dramas of "Heartbeat Signal" and "Daughters' Love", and if it is mixed up, in case it crashes or overturns, it will be worth the loss.

It doesn't matter if Lianzong is played badly, it's a big deal to turn to other themes.

The next season's S-level variety show "New Rap" has completed the audition registration and will start recording this weekend.

Yu Sheng obviously has a great passion for rap, and when Shen Yize mentioned such a show to her, she agreed without saying a word, and after agreeing, she didn't forget to remind him of what he had promised before - to collaborate with her on a rap song.

Shen Yize naturally won't forget that in fact, he recorded a sample of the new song the day after signing the contract with Yu Sheng, but he never gave it to her.

One of the things you have to learn as a boss is how to maximize your profits. Instead of giving this song to her early, it is better to wait for Yu Sheng to finish recording the show, which can also be used as an incentive to spur her to participate in the recording with her heart.

This Spring Festival, a major event also happened in the circle - Feifei Music and Quanyu Music had their first head-to-head confrontation.

Although Tengfei spent a huge amount of money to buy the song copyrights of more than 90% of domestic music companies, and even got some exclusives, compared with Quanyu Music, which has monopolized the market for more than ten years, the number of daily active and registered members is still an order of magnitude worse.

In order to attract more users, Feifei Music announced at 9 o'clock in the morning on February 1 that from February 8, the price of all music works on the platform will be comprehensively reduced, from the original 5 to 7 yuan per single to 2 to 5 yuan, and 15 to 18 yuan per album to 10 to 15 yuan, and at the same time, the limit on the number of albums purchased at a time per account will be lifted.

As soon as this announcement came out, it immediately caused an uproar in the circle.

In order to avoid vicious competition, every industry has its own unwritten rules or consensus, and in the field of digital music, this consensus was reached by All Entertainment Music and many music platforms as early as ten years ago, including both album pricing and single purchase limits.

Among the many platforms that participated in the formulation of rules back then, there was Feifei Music, but now, Feifei Music suddenly made such a come, and on the day the announcement was issued, it was unanimously boycotted and whipped by peers in the industry.

At the same time, the statement also questioned the major music companies and independent musicians, the price reduction of digital albums first harmed the interests of these people, and they naturally would not allow Feifei Music to achieve the purpose of attracting traffic by sacrificing their interests.

These people naturally include Shen Yize and his golden point.

Soon, Feifei Music issued a second announcement, claiming that the price reduction was due to the fact that users generally complained that the album price was too high, and as a user-oriented streaming platform, Feifei Music naturally had to listen to users' opinions.

It then explains that participation in the price reduction program is voluntary and not mandatory, and that songs that do not participate in the program will still be billed according to the previous rules.

On the second day of the announcement, Shen Yize received a notice inviting him to participate in the price reduction plan, and Liang Lei, CEO of Tengfei Music, even called to lobby in person, saying that although the price was reduced, because the purchase restrictions were lifted, the sales volume would definitely skyrocket.

Shen Yize knew that what Liang Lei said was true.

For creators of the level of him, Jiang Yining and Yu Sheng, the income will indeed increase, because once the purchase restrictions are lifted, some wealthy fanatical fans, such as Yang Jiukang, can buy 10,000 copies at every turn.

For traffic stars, such as Ju Ran, an idol who relies purely on fan support, is even more beneficial and has no disadvantages.

For capital, you can also make a lot of money by cutting leeks from fans.

And the fans, they got the opportunity to support Giegie, although they were cut leeks, but they will only enjoy it and enjoy it.

The only ones who suffer are the middle and lower class independent original musicians, when the price of other songs is reduced, they can only be forced to accept the price reduction, otherwise the work will be even more unpopular, but they do not have fanatical fans with deep pockets, and the result of accepting the price reduction is a sharp drop in income.

It won't have much impact in the short term, but in the long run, these middle- and lower-class independent musicians will inevitably change careers in order to make a living, and when the middle and lower echelons of an industry disappear, that is, the day the industry dies.

Shen Yize has experienced such an era, and he has also been one of the victims, so he knows very well the consequences of Feifei Music's actions.

However, capital is short-sighted, for Feifei Music, price reduction can attract traffic, lifting purchase restrictions can cut fans and leeks, and being rich does not make bastards, as for whether the Chinese music scene will be good or bad in the future, whether there will still be original soil, presumably the high-level of Tengfei will not care.

Shen Yize was silent on the other end of the phone for a long time, and finally said: "Increasing the sharing ratio to seventy percent is my condition." ”

"Yes!"

The other party agreed without hesitation.

Shen Yize didn't want to agree, he didn't want to help the abuse, but now his strength is still too weak, and he is far from enough to fight Tengfei, let alone reverse this trend.

Since price reductions and the lifting of purchase restrictions can bring higher benefits, this is an inevitable trend in the capital market. In the past, when Quanyu Music was dominant, it could sacrifice a little profit to correct the industry, but in the face of menacing challengers, Quanyu could only take advantage of the trend.

Although Shen Yize is angry, he is no longer a pure musician, and he will not act recklessly with enthusiasm.

Recognize the reality, and then keep your feet on the ground.

Gather strength first, and when the time comes, he will make a move.

Feifei Music tried its best to lobby around, but only a few could agree to participate in the price reduction plan.

But this situation was reversed after February 8, because the songs participating in the price reduction plan did sell better, and since they could make more money, the major music companies naturally joined in, leaving only the lesser-known middle and lower class singers still stubbornly resisting.

Soon, even these opposing voices disappeared, because they found that if they didn't join the plan, Feifei Music would not be recommended and exposed at all, and the works they worked so hard to create not only could not make money, but instead enriched the music library to the platform in vain.

Within a few days, a large number of middle- and lower-class independent musicians abandoned their positions and left, but Feifei Music didn't care at all, because in a week, All Entertainment Music would also change the rules.

Once the two largest streaming platforms in the country unify the rules, will these lower-middle-class musicians have anywhere else to go?

It is an eternal truth that dogs will come back when they are hungry.
