Huayu: From the Era of Ringtones to Becoming a Legend

"A joint trial in four courts? What four courts?"

Hearing Liu Feng's words, Lu Jiuge was full of doubt, having no idea what he was talking about.

"The State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, the State Copyright Administration, the State Administration of Information Industry, and the State Administration of Culture."

Liu Feng's expression was grave, and he lowered his voice to give instructions:

"Xiao Lu, this is no longer a simple work meeting. You must be careful with your words and phrases when you give your report!"

"Don't worry, Dean Liu, I know what I'm doing!"

Even though Lu Jiuge's mental capacity far surpassed that of ordinary people, although she spoke calmly, her heart was pounding.

He had thought he would only be meeting Chen Yuanjiang alone, but now it seemed that the situation he was facing was far more solemn and serious than he had anticipated.

"Xiao Lu, don't be nervous!"

After giving the reminder, Liu Feng glanced at Lu Jiuge, whose face was full of solemnity, and quickly lowered his voice:

"These leaders are in high positions and won't make things difficult for you easily. As long as you don't say anything wrong, there shouldn't be any major problems!"

Lu Jiuge took a deep breath and nodded:

"Dean Liu, don't worry, I will definitely be careful with my words and actions!"

"Let's go up!"

Looking at his rock-solid posture, Liu Feng admired him even more, nodded, led the way into the elevator, and pressed the button for the fifth floor.

Upon arriving at the fifth-floor office area, Chen Yuanjiang's personal secretary was already waiting there.

After Lu Jiuge quickly completed the registration and self-introduction, Liu Feng patted his arm and whispered:

"I'll be waiting for you in the lobby on the first floor. Don't worry, just go in."

After saying that, he turned around and went back downstairs to wait.

Led by her assistant, Lu Jiuge walked to the door of Chen Yuanjiang's office.

The assistant knocked gently on the door, and only after receiving permission did he push the door open and let Lu Jiuge in.

"Leader of Yuanjiang, President Lu Jiuge has arrived!"

As soon as the assistant finished speaking, four calm and authoritative gazes simultaneously fell upon Lu Jiuge from the sofa in the office.

Sitting in the main seat was Chen Yuanjiang from the State Administration of Television, with a square face and a commanding presence.

On the left is the leader of the Copyright Bureau, with sharp eyes;

The leader of the Information Industry Bureau on the right holds a document and looks serious.

The outermost leader of the Cultural Bureau had a calm demeanor and gentle gaze.

There were no attendants in the office, only a faint smell of cigarettes.

Lu Jiuge took a deep breath, composed herself, stepped forward half a step, and bowed in greeting:

"Director Chen, esteemed leaders, hello!"

Chen Yuanjiang scrutinized him for a moment, his tense face slowly relaxing, revealing a rare smile:

"Mr. Lu is indeed young and promising, with an extraordinary demeanor. Please come and sit down, there's no need to be so formal."

In a simple sentence, he conveyed both authority and approachability, setting the tone for the entire meeting.

Lu Jiuge sat down as instructed, her back straight, her eyes looking straight ahead, without the slightest hint of evasion or stage fright.

This composure, far beyond his years, drew a hint of approval from all four leaders.

Chen Yuanjiang exchanged glances with the other three leaders, and without a word of pleasantries, went straight to the point:

"We invited you here today with a very clear purpose. We've been following the entire Shanghai music awards ceremony closely!"

"With a transparent and open vote, you shattered the veil of secrecy surrounding the old industry and allowed us to see the future path of digital music!"

After a pause, Chen Yuanjiang continued:

"Yesterday, I specifically had someone check the relevant information about the Lingyun Player. I discovered that the digital music path you've already taken action on and achieved results on is precisely the direction we've been analyzing overseas but haven't yet finalized!"

"You're at the forefront of the market, you understand technology, content, and your audience. Today, leaders from all four of our regulatory bodies are here to hear your opinions!"

How should digital music be regulated? What industry standards should be established? Which way should it go in the future?

After Chen Yuanjiang finished speaking, the four leaders looked up at the same time, their eyes focusing on Lu Jiuge.

Once Lu Jiuge understood that the true purpose of the meeting was indeed related to the digital music industry, she finally felt relieved.

After a brief silence, he raised his eyes and spoke, his voice steady and powerful, each word clear:

"Reporting to the leaders, I believe that the core of digital music can be summed up in just three words: copyright, audience, and standards."

"The development of digital music..."

Seeing that the four executives were listening attentively, Lu Jiuge spoke clearly and steadily, systematically and comprehensively explaining the digital music legalization and standardization system that had been fully tested and proven in the market for more than ten years in the future.

There were no empty slogans, no bureaucratic platitudes, and no deliberate pandering.

Every suggestion directly addresses the industry's deep-seated problems, and every direction accurately pinpoints future trends.

Lu Jiuge completed her explanation in one go in a full twenty minutes.

A hush fell over the office as the four leaders pondered amongst themselves, their eyes revealing a palpable sense of awe and approval.

A moment later, the leader of the Information Industry Bureau finally couldn't contain himself any longer, slammed his hand on the table, and spoke with great admiration:

"Excellent! Well said! This is exactly the direction we've been analyzing for a long time, but no one has been able to fully articulate!"

The other three didn't speak, but they looked at Lu Jiuge with the same approval.

With this opening, the rest of the conversation turned into a question-and-answer session.

Chen Yuanjiang and the other three took turns asking questions, and Lu Jiuge answered them one by one.

This segment lasted for almost two hours before it ended.

The four looked at each other, and finally Chen Yuanjiang announced the decision.

He stood up, his expression serious, and grasped Lu Jiuge's hand:

"President Lu, our four departments held a meeting before your arrival, and now we have officially decided..."

Releasing Lu Jiuge's hand and gesturing for him to sit down, Chen Yuanjiang continued his announcement:

"With your Qianxing Entertainment taking the lead, and in conjunction with four departments, we will jointly draft the 'National Digital Music Industry Development Outline,' using the framework you proposed as its core!"

boom!

One sentence completely stunned Lu Jiuge.

Leading the development of national-level industry standards!

This means that Lu Jiuge's Qianxing Entertainment has transformed from a rising star in the music industry into a rule-maker in several music industry sectors!

From then on, the entire music industry will follow the rules he set!

Even Lu Jiuge, who had lived two lives and was used to grand occasions, was somewhat taken aback by this honor.

It took him a while to come to his senses. He stood up, bowed slightly, and solemnly stated:

"Thank you for your trust. I will certainly live up to your expectations and complete the draft outline as soon as possible, then submit it for your reference!"

Chen Yuanjiang and the other three leaders stood up and shook hands with Lu Jiuge.

"Comrade Lu Jiuge, the future of Chinese digital music is in your hands."

"We must do everything in our power."

Lu Jiuge held it firmly.

A tense four-party hearing concluded with unanimous approval, full entrustment, and a firm commitment to establishing industry leadership.

After leaving the office and going downstairs to meet Liu Feng, I recounted what had just happened. Liu Feng was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

He only began to speak after leaving the headquarters building:

"Xiao Lu, do you know what this means? It means that you will be in charge of setting the future standards for digital music in China!"

Lu Jiuge smiled faintly, about to speak, when a system notification suddenly sounded in her mind:

[Ding! The host's accumulated negative faith value has exceeded 5000 million!]

[Triggering rule: Negative faith value ≥ 5000 million, automatically reset to zero]

[Current negative faith value has been cleared: 50000000 → 0]

[Unlock a new side quest: The Entertainment Empire storyline: Phase 1 activated]

[Phase Goal: To establish a complete entertainment ecosystem covering music, artists, distribution channels, and film and television content]

Lu Jiuge's heart stirred, and her consciousness sank into the system panel.

The negative faith value column had been completely reset to zero, and the accumulated values ​​had been completely cleared.

Meanwhile, the positive faith value remains at over 12 million, unaffected by anything.

Meanwhile, the progress bar for the "Entertainment Empire Line - Phase One" floated quietly, perfectly clear.

Regaining her senses, Lu Jiuge looked at Liu Feng, whose eyes were filled with shock, without a trace of arrogance, her tone calm and domineering:

"Since the leaders have placed their trust in me, I will certainly live up to their expectations and establish and solidify industry standards."
