Chapter 1227 Different Sorrows and Joys
But Zhou Zhi just thought about it again. A cunning style like Hu Tianyu’s is too easy to arouse others’ vigilance. On the contrary, a cute style like An Chunjia is more likely to make others wary. confused.
"These are things we are talking about that have not happened." Zhou Zhi smiled and said: "So maybe we are using the heart of a villain to judge the belly of a gentleman. So just take the quail fight seriously. Working, having a good attitude, and establishing good relations with foreigners are "diplomatic needs" in themselves. How do you sing that song "Friends Are Here"? Wine, the enemy has a shotgun when he comes."
"If you are a friend, then you should be our 'peace messenger', a leader in showing our hospitality to foreign friends. If you have ulterior motives, then let’s talk about it separately.”
While saying this, Zhou Zhi winked at Hu Tianyu.
Hu Tianyu is a very clever person, and he immediately understood that Zhou Zhi was pouring rice soup for the quail frame. He was asked to perform in his true self, without even realizing that he was on the set. Only in this way could it come from the heart and naturally.
"Ah, yes!" Hu Tianyu began to cooperate: "This person is suspected of being seriously ill. He has been the factory manager for a long time and he thinks he is suffering from heart disease. Of course we have to send spring breeze to friendly people. Warmth, caring like family members, it is best to inspire a few comrades, that is what I can do to you."
"Oh, can I make a request to the organization?" Haruka asked.
"What is the request? Although I cannot represent the organization, as long as I can do it, there will be no ambiguity!"
"Then what... elbow, you promised our two systems When will the elite fellowship begin?" An Chunjia pushed up her glasses: "You have so many Chinese beauties that you can't feed a man without caring about a hungry man!"
Zhou Zhi and Hu Tianyu looked at each other again. How could he be such an honest person? This is a big traitor in the guise of an honest man!
But the timing of the big traitor's proposal was wrong, because the sugar and wine party was about to start, and the beautiful female college students would be very busy and would have no chance to talk to the male college students.
I signed a "sales contract" with Quail Jia Ukitayu and agreed to have a social gathering after the food and wine party. Zhou Zhi was also reminded that it was time to contact the girls.
It turned out that Xu Liqin was more anxious than him, so she sent Du Wenxin to drag Zhao Xing over.
Seeing Du Wenxin, Zhou Zhi couldn't help but praise her: "Wenxin's ability to choose movies is much better than that of a monkey! They are all popular and good movies."
< br>
Du Wenxin is concerned about other things: "Monkey and I went to Hong Kong Island to play, and we saw someone selling Su Fang's album, so we bought it back. Did you see the elbow?"
"Look Here it is." Zhou Zhi nodded: "The effect is better than what was shown on the TV station. It's so much better."
"Yes, "The Love of Life" is really good," Du Wenxin said, "You are really talented."
"I heard you can do it too. "Split the money?" Du Xing, a profiteer, always pays attention to his profit.
This is the golden age of pop music, but Zhou Zhi believes that the reason for this is the huge benefits that the release of LD has brought to musicians.
In the final analysis, copyright can actually generate benefits.
Due to the existence of piracy, a large part of the profits from tape sales does not fall into the hands of record companies.
Later, it even developed to the point where more than two-thirds of the revenue fell into the hands of illegal pirates. The real original creators could only enjoy one-third of the revenue.
This situation has been improved with the release of the LD album.
Because the LD disk is huge and the recorder equipment is both special and expensive, ordinary pirates cannot afford such equipment. Moreover, the LD decryption chip also has a special decryption mechanism. If it is not a genuine disc, it will not be decrypted at all. This Let LD discs have copy protection function. In other words, every LD can only be genuine, so the profit from the sale of every album goes to the record manufacturer.
Coupled with the popularity of karaoke, karaoke halls, radio stations, and television stations in China, Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, and overseas all have to pay royalties for the use and playback of music.
These profits are very considerable, which completely stimulates the enthusiasm of the creators.
A song lasts a lifetime. At this stage of time, it seems to be 100% true.
Therefore, there are two more items in Zhou Zhi's income, one is the profit sharing of Guan Tingting's "Hometown" and the other is the profit sharing of Su Fang's "The Love of My Life".
However, this prosperous scene will soon be completely broken, that is, the piracy caused by CDs, VCDs, and network players is rampant.
After the domestic breakthrough in chips, some manufacturers soon launched "full decoding" players, which can play any disc normally. Coupled with the changes in the size of VCD discs, the price of recorders has dropped sharply. , the popularity of the Internet has made the cost of piracy close to zero.
As a result, the passion for domestic music creation soon experienced a major recession. Record sales fell again and again. Apart from concerts, singing could no longer make money.
This phenomenon will continue until twenty years later, when laws and regulations are increasingly perfected, several major music portals join forces to form a monopoly, charges become increasingly reasonable, and users increasingly accept the concept of online genuine consumption, the music industry will re-open. Looking up, the creator's passion was rekindled.
Because of the existence of "network amplifiers", although the consumption price of singles is very low for consumers, it cannot withstand the rapid expansion of the audience. Compared with the current period, the benefits to creators are not only It didn’t decrease, but became more abundant.
But by that time, pop music began to be impacted by other media forms, and market demand became more segmented, more complex, and more comprehensive.
This is also the reason why Su Fang wants to go to Hong Kong Island to develop, and Guan Tingting's songs are also released by Rolling Stone. Domestic piracy is too rampant, but at least the revenue from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan can be maintained.
So in the past few years, it has been quite good. Although Zhou Zhi's profit sharing is far worse than that of Su Fang and Guan Tingting, it can't stand that these two songs are too popular, and they have made tens of thousands in this month.
Of course, this situation cannot last forever. After new songs knock old songs off the charts, income will definitely drop sharply.
“What’s the matter, you want me to treat you?” Zhou Zhi teased Wen Xin, looking at her and shaking his head: “A rich woman is a rich woman, it’s too expensive to go to Hong Kong Island for a holiday.”
< br>
Du Wenxin opened her eyes innocently: "I don't have to spend money to go to Hong Kong Island. Why do you say that?"
"Ah, yes, I forgot that your family owns a hotel there. You Isn’t going there the same as going home?” Only then did Zhou Zhi realize that the world’s Cantonese cuisine comes from Shunde, and Dou’s disciples are all over the world. They have big hotels in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Europe and the United States, and Dou Wenxin can go wherever he goes. Being able to live "at home" really doesn't cost anything.
So the joys and sorrows of this person are different from others. Although Zhou Zhi thinks that the little girl Du Wenxin is very innocent, romantic, simple and simple, and has a very lovable personality, she still doesn't make many friends in the girl group. , the reason for not being accepted may be found.
A casual remark may be unintentional to her, but to the ears of other girls, it may sound like a harsh show-off.
But this was not Du Wenxin’s fault. Zhou Zhi also felt that there was no need to remind her, lest the little girl would feel more upset, so he smiled and said: "Why did you think of coming over to inspect the work today? These two days have been awesome. My second brother is not here, do you think I can handle it?”
