Huayu: From the Era of Ringtones to Becoming a Legend

Ren Suxi was clearly surprised that things had developed so quickly, and answered somewhat flusteredly:

"Mr. Lu, could you give me a week? I need to arrange things at the school before I go."

"Of course, no problem!"

Lu Jiuge was easygoing.

"If you don't have time, I can have Zuo Wei, who's in charge of artist contracts at the company, come over!"

Ren Suxi quickly waved her hand, her attitude respectful:

"No need to trouble Mr. Lu, I will report to the company in person after I finish my performance class exam on Friday."

"Alright!"

Lu Jiuge nodded:

"Let's exchange contact information. I'll give you Zuo Wei's phone number; we can discuss the specific schedule with him later!"

"If you encounter a question he can't answer, just call me!"

As Lu Jiuge finished exchanging contact information with Ren Suxi, she looked at Liu Feng:

"Dean Liu, shall we go together?"

"I have nothing else to do, let's go together!"

The two greeted Ren Suxi and walked towards the door.

"Xiao Lu, are you leaving first thing tomorrow morning?"

Standing at the entrance of the Central Academy of Drama, Liu Feng looked at Lu Jiuge with eyes full of reluctance and admiration.

Although they haven't had much contact, his appreciation for Lu Jiuge has completely transformed from "a talented junior" to "a leader who can rewrite the entire industry landscape."

Lu Jiuge nodded slightly:

"Dean Liu, the matter in Kyoto has come to an end, but there are still a lot of things at the company waiting for me to go back and handle."

"The drafting of the digital music outline, the next expansion of the Lingyun player, and the establishment of the artist team—none of these can be delayed."

"I see!"

Liu Feng took a deep breath and extended his right hand:

"You're at a crucial stage where you can soar to new heights; not a moment can be wasted, or we'll regret it!"

Lu Jiuge shook hands with him and exchanged pleasantries:

"Thank you for your support, Dean Liu. I look forward to your visit to Qianxing Entertainment to provide guidance!"

"Haha, you've gotten all serious now. You've hidden that calm and sharp air from before so well, it's making me a little uncomfortable!"

"I'm leaving now. You should get some rest too!"

With a joke, Liu Feng patted Lu Jiuge on the shoulder and left first.

……

Back at the hotel, Lu Jiuge didn't waste any time.

First, he called Zuo Wei, briefly explained his situation in Kyoto, and asked him to prepare a contract with Ren Suxi.

After hanging up the phone, I called Zheng Lin and instructed him to immediately begin collecting and organizing data on digital music industry standards.

After finishing her work, Lu Jiuge closed her eyes and let her consciousness sink into the system panel.

A pale blue virtual panel unfolds in my mind.

Unlike before when data needed to be actively retrieved, after the system upgrade, the data is now automatically displayed in the user's consciousness.

[Host: Lu Jiuge]

[Positive Faith Value: 14440000]

[Negative Faith Value: 154000 (Not yet reached the zeroing threshold, accumulating normally)]

[Entertainment Empire Storyline - Phase 1 Progress: 10%]

[Unlocked Skills: Artist Management (Mastery), Lingyun Audio Quality Optimization Algorithm (Max Level)]

As her consciousness withdrew from the system interface in her mind, Lu Jiuge opened her laptop and began to quickly outline the subsequent development path.

The implementation of digital music standards, the expansion of Lingyun Player's distribution channels, the competition among traditional record companies, the launch of super IP variety shows, and the development of the film and television sector...

Each plan was clearly listed in the document, forming the complete blueprint for the first phase of the entertainment empire.

The next morning.

Lu Jiuge didn't linger and took the earliest flight, leaving Kyoto.

The plane soared into the sky, piercing through layers of clouds, and flew steadily towards Zhejiang Province.

Sitting by the window, Lu Jiuge looked down at the shrinking city skyline below, her eyes calm and profound.

Kyoto was just one stop in his plan.

Next, the real main battlefield will return to Zhejiang Province, to the headquarters of Qianxing Entertainment.

He intends to use digital music rules as a spear, Lingyun Player as a shield, and popular variety show IPs as a sharp weapon to completely sweep across the domestic music scene and establish his own absolute dominance.

……

Three hours later, the flight landed smoothly at Zhejiang Provincial Airport.

As soon as the plane landed, Lu Jiuge's phone started vibrating incessantly.

The caller ID showed numbers belonging to company executives, Zuo Wei, and business partners.

Clearly, news of his joint trial in Kyoto and his leadership in setting industry standards had already reached Zhejiang Province, igniting a frenzy throughout the company and even the local entertainment industry.

Lu Jiuge first sent a message to Zuo Wei, telling him to wait in the parking lot as planned, and then walked off the plane at a leisurely pace.

As soon as I exited the security checkpoint, a familiar figure quickly came to greet me.

"President Lu!"

Zuo Wei was so excited that her face turned completely red, and her voice trembled uncontrollably:

"The news that you've been authorized by the Fourth Bureau to lead the development of digital music industry standards has spread. Our company's phones are ringing off the hook, all from people tentatively probing for collaboration!"

Looking at his excited expression, Lu Jiuge smiled faintly, her tone remaining calm:

"Look how excited you are! This is just the beginning!"

"Just getting started?"

Zuo Wei was stunned, not understanding the meaning behind Lu Jiuge's words.

Lu Jiuge turned her head to look to the left:

"The development of our previous companies was like a disorganized mess!"

"During this trip to Kyoto, I restructured the company's planning framework. Going forward, Qianxing Entertainment's strategic goal will no longer focus solely on the music sector, but rather on developing into an entertainment group that will sweep across the entire entertainment industry and go global!"

Zuo Wei stared blankly at Lu Jiuge, his heart churning with turmoil, trembling with excitement. It took him a while to come to his senses.

"Mr. Lu, is your real goal the entire entertainment industry? To break out of Asia and go global?"

"That's right!"

Lu Jiuge nodded:

"I've already written down the detailed plan, and we'll discuss it together with the founding team later. Now, let's head back to the office!"

"Okay! The car is in the underground parking lot, let's go this way!"

The person on the left is leading the way while turning their head to report:

"The vice president of Tianyin Records is waiting for you at the company this morning. Are you going to see him?"

Lu Jiuge's eyes turned slightly cold, and her tone was indifferent:

"They're nowhere to be found! Tianyin Records is based in Kyoto, so they get the news the fastest. They just want a piece of the pie."

"I remember very clearly how they suppressed Qianxing before. Now they want to reap the benefits? Absolutely not."

Zuo Wei paused slightly, then nodded:

"Mr. Lu is right. When the traditional record labels ganged up on us, Tianyin Records was the most vocal. Now that they see we have four accreditations, they want to take advantage of us—that's wishful thinking!"

Lu Jiuge explained with a smile:

"They are not qualified to speak to me as equals!"

"It won't be too late to say goodbye when they truly recognize reality and understand that the rules set by Qianxing are the only standards in the industry!"

"I understand, Mr. Lu! Send them back immediately to await an audience!"

Lu Jiuge nodded slightly, said no more, and walked straight to the parking area.

The black van smoothly drove away from the airport and sped towards the headquarters of Qianxing Entertainment.

Inside the carriage, Lu Jiuge leaned back in her seat, closed her eyes to rest, but her mind was racing.

Next, in addition to leading the implementation of digital music industry standards, he will completely control the entire chain of copyright, channels, and distribution.

The most crucial step was to restructure Qianxing Entertainment and create the prototype of a true entertainment empire.
