Perfect Life

Women spend 42,863 pieces, witch's tears 33,168 pieces!

If it wasn't for the sudden Sony incident, this would definitely be a big news worthy of any media special attention, whether it was Zhou Ai's historic breakthrough of three thousand copies in a single day, or the face-to-face tear of the two queens this time. Compelling performances are absolutely eye-catching. one look

In addition, Feng Feifei's continued decline, almost collapsed, Zhao Xinfu and the four beauties' strong and continuous sales ability, etc., are all worthy of the media's writing.

However, these news are destined not to occupy the headlines of the evening newspaper tonight and the entertainment page of the daily newspaper tomorrow.

Although Liao Liao got the second-highest weekly record in her life, and through the sale of four consecutive albums, she has once again consolidated her absolute status as the top star in the domestic music scene. Once again, she continued the upward trend after her comeback. At present, she has become the third most powerful female singer after Liao Liao and He Runqing after surpassing Zhen Zhen and Feng Feifei.

However, for at least the next week, the biggest limelight will belong to Sony Records, there is no doubt.

At noon, when everyone sat in the office and had lunch together, one news after another had begun to be confirmed, and Sony Records had also announced that an official press conference would be held this afternoon.

The company of Zhen Zhen and his wife has indeed been wholly-owned by Sony, and Sony paid them a 4.2% stake in Sony Records. As a result, the couple will jointly become the seventh largest shareholder of Sony Records. . At the same time, Zhen Zhen also signed a three-disc sharing contract with Sony Records. According to Zhen Zhen's albums, if there is no accident, she will stay at Sony Records for at least the next five years.

Of course, according to the grapevine. I don't know if I was stimulated by money, or I was stimulated by the fact that my position in the domestic music scene was obviously no longer in the past two years. In short, when the two parties reached a contract. Zhen Zhen once said that these three albums will be completed within the next three years. If this gossip is true, it means, in the next three years. Zhen Zhen releases a new album every year.

For Zhen Zhen's fans, this is of course a happy moment in life, but for the current domestic music scene, her decision and determination may mean that she will rejoin Liao Liao, He Runqing, Zhou Cong, Feng Feifei , Li Xinru and many other powerful female singers in the country are in the competition for the queen of the music scene.

In fact, because Liao Liao's position has been stabilized, He Runqing and Zhou Hao are already ahead by a lot, and Feng Feifei can almost be sentenced out of the game. Therefore, when Zhen Zhen joined in, she was actually going to compete with Li Qian and Liao Liao, the little queen Li Xinru, who debuted ten years later than her.

Because times have changed.

However, according to relatively unreliable sources, Li Xinru, the little queen, has also been won by Sony Records. If this is true, it has to be said that in terms of female singers. With the help of Zhen Zhen, Feng Feifei, Li Xinru, Sima Duoduo and others, Sony Records, which has completed the integration of singer resources, is already qualified enough to compete with Minghu Culture, even if it is only for female singers.

And if Zhou Ai ends up staying at Sony Records, Sony Records will even have a considerable advantage.

in male singers. Sony's advantage will be so great that all the other record companies in the entire domestic music scene are unable to compete!

Huang Yuqing, has confirmed to join!

Zhou Feng, has decided to join!

Xinfu Zhao Studio is negotiating with Sony Records, the acquisition is almost a certainty, and now they are talking. It's just the price of the acquisition. Zhao Xinfu Studio has a contract with Sony. It is currently a semi-subordinate and semi-cooperative relationship. As long as the price is negotiated, the resource integration between them is even better than that of Zhen Zhen's company. It's a lot faster, and it takes almost no effort. Look

At that time, Sony Records will have a luxurious lineup consisting of Xinfu Zhao, Huang Yuqing, Zhou Feng and Zhang Chang in terms of male singers!

After the news was confirmed one by one, I thought about it again. Whether it was Li Qian, Qi Jie, or Liao Liao, I finally began to understand why Xinda Records, which has been known for being stingy for more than ten years, suddenly reported to Zhou Huan. The astonishingly high price of 50 million for 30 songs must have been received earlier than Minghu Culture. They were really scared!

Once Sony completes the integration of their singer resources, the lineup will be absolutely luxurious, whether male singers or female singers. At that time, in terms of female singers, Minghu Culture, with Liao Liao and He Runqing, may not be able to fall behind, but in addition, even one of the original three giants such as Xinda and Huage will face a complete suppressed situation.

Therefore, at a critical moment of such drastic changes, if a record company wants to gain a certain right to speak and a certain market position that can provide support, it is necessary to have at least a superstar in hand!

Otherwise, if you want to focus on which album, Sony will directly come up with a superstar with a similar style, and if the dates overlap, not to mention killing it, it will at least make your promotion plan more effective to a large extent, and An album that could have been a big sell could also be greatly suppressed by this.

Simply put, if there is not even a superstar who can support the scene and support the market, a record company will lose the right to talk to the other party and want to negotiate, you are not qualified!

Before the work meal was over, the people who rubbed the rice came.

Without saying hello in advance, Zhou Ye drove over by himself.

He and Minghu Culture have always been eye-catching. This is not new news in the industry, or even in the circle of media reporters. Many reporters have already made news that Zhou Ye will soon join Minghu Culture.

Like this time, when he came here, he was discovered by reporters who are now extremely sensitive. When the car was parked downstairs, the reporters took pictures. Of course, even though he was in a hurry, Zhou Ye was still measured. After all, he still had to finish the album in his hand with his company, so he faced two reporters' questions. At first, he asked three questions and didn't know. Later, when he saw the reporters even followed into the elevator, he had to say that he had made an appointment in advance. Come to get the song.

Of course, he didn't dare to say that it was Li Qian's work. If that were the case, it would become an invitation to sing, which was somewhat shameless. He was talking about Liao Liao's works anyway, Liao Liao did promise him.

Then, it happened that Huang Wenjuan and Wei Lan had a surplus of the lunch boxes they bought, so Zhou Ye also gathered together to eat, and while he was eating, he said frankly that he came here this time to report.

According to him, Sony, Cinda, Huage, Dongfang, four record companies gave him offers.

It should be said that although Zhou Ye has only released one album so far. And it's not too popular, but his potential is still very optimistic about the musicians and record companies in the industry. Therefore, in this sudden outbreak of the competition for singer resources, instead of being able to stay out of it, he has become a success. The hottest one!

The reason is very simple, he has enough potential, and he may soar to the sky at any time because of a certain album or a certain song, but it happens. At the moment, he has not yet become popular, so it is relatively "cheap".

Thirty songs. Six million, the price can be negotiated, this is Sony.

Thirty songs, five million, or three albums, 12% basic commission. This is Xinda.

Twenty songs, plus the priority of the next album, five million, this is Huage.

Thirty songs, seven million, this is the East.

It should be said that the price of any one is not low, not to mention that they all said that as long as Zhou Ye has the intention, the price can be negotiated. This is really quite generous for Zhou Ye, who only has one album at the moment.

The promise given by Qi Jie is four albums, which basically means a bundle of four or five years, and only % of the basic commission can be said. In contrast, it is almost uncompetitive.

However, after eating and chatting, when the meal that was neither salty nor bland was finished, he put down his chopsticks and Zhou Ye said, "Brother, I'm just here to report to you and my sister, don't worry, they will give you I’m ten million, and I’m not going either. I’m hanging out with you and my sister!” Then he said lightly: “If you don’t have any other orders, I’ll go and work on it! Get this album one day earlier. When you're done, jump ship one day earlier!"

This time, Qi Jie personally delivered him to the door of the company.

After eating and wiping his mouth, Li Qian said three words to Liao Liao: "This is a debt!"

Liao Liao laughed.

After laughing, she said, "We can afford it!"

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Sony's press conference was held on time, and at the same time, a series of news announced by Sony's general manager Watanabe and Kazuichi personally shocked the entire pop music world.

Mr. Li Yaofu, Chairman of Sony Records, has officially decided to accept the acquisition of shares by Japan's Sony Entertainment Co., Ltd. As the company's largest shareholder other than Japan's Sony Entertainment Co., Ltd., Mr. Li Yaofu, who holds 17% of the shares, has agreed to Selling about 15% of the shares in his hands, the contract has been formally signed and implemented.

After the transaction is completed, Mr. Li Yaofu has less than 2% of the shares remaining, becoming an ordinary shareholder, and is ready to resign as chairman at the next board of directors. After the transaction is completed, Sony Entertainment Corporation of Japan The shareholding of Sony (China) Records has been increased to 52% in one fell swoop, and it has an absolute controlling stake.

Why did Li Yaofu suddenly sell his shares? Is Sony's offer too high for him to refuse? Or as rumored, because of a series of investment failures in the industrial and financial markets in recent years, the legendary rich man is already in debt and has to sell some less important stocks in order to revitalize his assets?

Watanabe Kazuichi emphasized that the transaction price between the two parties is a commercial secret and cannot be disclosed to the public.

And then, he said that thanks to the attention of Japanese shareholders, he has been entrusted to receive the support of Sony Japan at the board meeting next month to take over the post of chairman. At that time, he will take the order to reorganize the board of directors of Sony Records. .

This is the biggest, capital-level change, not only can make headlines on the entertainment page, but is also qualified enough to make headlines on the economic page. But for the uninitiated, the harvest may just be a concept: Sony Records, it is already the Japanese who call the shots!

As a result, many reporters asked questions on the spot: Where is music director Xie Mingyuan going?

Watanabe Kazuichi's answer was a little cautious. He said that Mr. Xie Mingyuan had submitted his resignation, and his attitude was firm, but the company was trying to comfort him. Facing hundreds of reporters. Watanabe Kazuichi's attitude is extremely modest and low-key. He said that in the past few years of cooperation, he cooperated with Director Xie Mingyuan very tacitly. He himself is also very appreciative of Mr. Xie Mingyuan's musical talent. Therefore, he strongly supports Xie Mingyuan as the general manager of Sony Records after the reorganization, or continue to serve as the music director.

After talking about Xie Mingyuan, of course it was the singer's turn to change.

Zhen Zhen's news was confirmed. Huang Yuqing also confirmed that he will officially join in June. As for Zhou Feng, Sony Records will hold a grand joining ceremony for him and Li Xinru, who has risen in the past two years, this Friday.

Feng Feifei's last contract has not been executed yet, and three contracts have been renewed.

On Zhou's side, Watanabe and Kazuichi claimed that since Sony Records had the right to renew their contracts, it would never be wasted, and for a queen-level superstar like Zhou's, no matter what the price was. All can be discussed. And he also said that Zhou Ai is considering the contract renewal invitation given by his side, and maybe the two sides will start contract renewal negotiations on this.

Of course, he didn't forget to joke in front of him, "There is something I want to discuss with Mr. Li Qian. You already have Liao Tianhou, so don't try to **** Zhou Ai with us. Otherwise, it's easy to cause trouble. ."

However, his little humor did not arouse much response from reporters at the scene.

In fact, in the face of this series of big news and big moves. Even if he was a bit knowledgeable and a little confused, he didn't react at all at that time.

In the No. 1 conference room of Minghu Culture, watching the news broadcast on TV, when Watanabe Kazuichi said this, Liao Liao let out a "ha". I don't know whether to laugh or to be sarcastic.

At about 3:40, the conference was over. The top executives of Minghu Culture at home were all sitting in the conference room, discussing something in twos and threes in a low voice.

Sony Records has become dominated by Japanese capital. This massive integration of resources is obviously a sharpening of the knife, and Minghu Culture, as the record company with the highest sales in the domestic pop music world other than Sony Records, will naturally not be without a sense of crisis. It's just that at this time, everyone is just discussing casually. In view of this situation, it is difficult to come up with a completely clear clue and coping strategy in a short period of time. And to be honest, Sony's material may not have been fully revealed yet!

At this time, before Li Qian or Qi Jie could say anything, Li Qian's life mobile phone suddenly rang.

Li Qian took out his phone and glanced at it, slightly surprised.

Facing Liao Liao's inquiring gaze, he said, "It's Watanabe."

The meeting room quickly became quiet.

Li Qian answered the phone, "Hello, Mr. Watanabe."

"Li Qianjun, you are fine. Have you read the news?"

"You mean your company's press conference?"

"Yes."

"Well, I'm watching, just finished. Your company is amazing! Congratulations!"

Watanabe Kazuichi smiled softly and said, "That's right, this time I called Li Qianjun mainly because our company decided to hold a celebration party tonight. Currently the staff are calling to invite one by one, because the news It's a bit hasty to leak out suddenly. But once the conference is over, I still think that other people can be invited by the staff, but Li Qianjun, you must be invited by me personally, please be sure to appreciate it!"

"Oh" Li Qian frowned and said calmly, "Tonight? That's really a bit unfortunate, I've already made an appointment to have a drink together!"

Watanabe Kazuichi was stunned when he heard the words, and then said: "Is it an industry insider? Oh, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked, but it doesn't really matter, even if it's not an industry insider, as long as it's your friend Li Qianjun, that's us Sony. The most distinguished guest, can you invite him to our celebration reception on my behalf?"

Li Qian thought for a while, and said with a smile: "Of course, I can invite you on your behalf, but I don't think he's willing to go?" After a while, he said, "It's President Xie from your company."

On the other end of the phone, there was silence for four or five seconds.

Afterwards, Watanabe Kazuichi seemed to sigh and said helplessly: "We really want to keep him! I personally admire his ability to work and his musical talent! In China, I Personally, I think that only Li Qianjun and Ming Yuanjun are the best when it comes to the combination of commercial records, literature, art and technology!"

"However, Mr. Ming Yuan attaches great importance to capital. He insists that Sony Records must be dominated by Chinese capital, otherwise he will resign. But what we need to do as art people is not to use a good Does the platform make better works? As for whether the platform is dominated by Japanese capital or Chinese capital, is it really that important?”

The conference room was extremely quiet, so even though it was only a built-in voice, those who were close could still clearly hear Kazuichi Watanabe's voice on the phone.

At this time, Li Qian just smiled when he heard the words, made a gesture of pressing his palm to Liao Liao, motioned her to be calm, and then asked, "So, did Mr. Watanabe persuade President Xie with this? "

Watanabe Kazuichi replied: "Of course, we talked a lot, and recently I want to talk to him again! If possible, Li Qianjun, can you persuade you to meet tonight? Sony Records, really good Need his talent!"

Li Qian smiled again and asked, "How did he answer you when you persuaded him?"

On the other end of the phone, there was another four or five seconds of silence.

Then, Kazuichi Watanabe said slowly, "Mr. Ming Yuan said, 'The music made by the Chinese is sold to Chinese audiences, and of course the Chinese have the final say!'" After a pause, he continued: "He Also said 'Art knows no borders'"

"But artists have different nationalities, right?" Li Qian continued with a smile.

Watanabe Kazuichi's voice was a little low, but he still replied: "Yes."

Li Qian nodded and said with a smile: "Mr. Watanabe, Sony's resource integration is actually not a bad thing for the entire industry. The increase in competition is likely to mean more quality products. In this regard, I, I am very happy to see Minghu Culture and Minghu Culture, and for commercial purposes, Minghu Culture will not exclude some business cooperation with your company. However, personally speaking, I support Mr. Xie Mingyuan's decision .sorry!"

Watanabe Kazuichi was silent for a moment, "Li Qianjun, I understand what you mean. However, as the person in charge of the two largest record companies in China, I personally hope to arrange a meeting with you. Excuse me, is it possible?"

Li Qian replied at the time: "Of course, I am also very happy to meet Mr. Watanabe."

"Okay, thank you Li Qianjun, excuse me!"

"You're welcome, I wish your company a great future!"

"Thank you, thank you!"

He hung up the phone, put his phone in his pocket, and met everyone's eyes~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Li Qian shrugged, and Qi Jie said, "I won't be the background board, you can lead the team over to congratulate me, by the way. Witness the peak night of Sony Records!"

Qi Jie raised her eyebrows and was about to speak when her phone suddenly rang.

She took out her phone and looked at Li Qian with a helpless smile, and said, "Watanabe"

Li Qian shrugged and walked out side by side with Liao Liao, asking her, "Old Liu Wonton Stewed Dumpling Restaurant, do you want to go?"

"Xie Mingyuan? Don't go!"

"You have no luck!"

"I'm going, but it will affect you from being a junior girl!"

"I want to soak early, but are you still here?"

"Contempt!" (To be continued.)
