Reinventing the Millennium.

Chapter 520 Breaking the Convention

Chapter 520 Breaking the Convention
Fang Zhuo didn't know much about the entertainment industry.

He knows so many famous actors, singers, and directors, but he doesn't know what the inner links are like, whether there are any hierarchical divisions and small circle systems.

But it can be roughly guessed.

The economic base determines the superstructure. If the economic situation is good there, people in this circle have the right to speak.

With the development of the economy, the right to speak will definitely be deflected.

It's just that this old Zhang is also a rich man on the Forbes list, and he can't save any face at all, which is also...unexpected.

It is true that the current Internet has not connected to the entertainment industry, but it sounds like he is unwilling to back down on even a small matter, and he is really strong, domineering, and arrogant.

Forget about anything else, but it happens to be someone from Sony Music.

Fang Zhuo had a wonderful sense of separation.

Regardless of whether it is Nobuyuki Idei, Stringer, Sony Group, or Sony (USA), all Sony executives that Fang Zhuo came into contact with were worried about the development trend of the group.

Apple and Echo are attacking Sony's music player, and Panasonic and Samsung are attacking Sony's TV and DVD.

Sony as a whole is going downhill faster and faster.

Under such circumstances, why do you dare to shout "you are the rule" at the foot of the imperial city without knowing what?

Fang Zhuo thought it was quite amusing.

He called Jay Chou, one of the few people he knew in the music industry, who was watching a football game with him in Houston a while ago.

"Jay, I want to ask you something, I know Feng, Feng..."

Fang Zhuo raised his head and asked Zhang Chaoyang, "What's that man's name?"

"Feng Yiqiang." Zhang Chaoyang replied.

"Oh, do you know Feng Yiqiang?" Fang Zhuo asked.

"Brother Fang, I know you, the CEO of Sony Music." Jay Chou replied.

Fang Zhuo let out an "oh" and asked again: "Then do you know who is more capable in Sony Music? The one who doesn't have a good deal with Mr. Feng is from the mainland."

Jay Chou thought for a while, and didn't ask Brother Fang why, and said, "Ren Wei and Ren Zong, the feeling I got in contact with is pretty good, he does things straightforwardly, and he is also a nice person. It seems that he is also responsible for a lot of things at Sony Music."

"Okay, I'll ask someone to look it up again." Fang Zhuo learned a name that met his requirements from a front-line worker in the music industry.

After that, he stopped calling and sent someone to check Ren Wei's resume to see if it was suitable.

Investigations take time, and contacting Sony (USA) also takes time.

Fang Zhuo poured a glass of wine and put the phone in his pocket.

Zhang Chaoyang:? ? ?

That's it? That's it?
"Mr. Fang, why don't you just call and ask for the name? What kind of supernatural power are you doing?" Zhang Chaoyang said, his mood tonight was ruined, and he was very depressed.

"Oh, you didn't say that Feng Yiqiang is the CEO of Sony Music Greater China. He has a high position and authority, so no wonder he looks down on you, a little rich man on the Internet." Fang Zhuo said, "It takes a day for someone like him Time will dethrone him."

Zhang Chaoyang shook his head: "It will take a day...huh?"

He looked at Boss Fang where the old god was present, and he couldn't believe it: "You can lose his job? How is it possible?"

Ma Dian also finds it strange, he fully understands this matter, and as Mr. Fang said, the CEO of a company in the Greater China region is indeed very powerful, how could it be possible for someone outside the company to withdraw within a day?
Fang Zhuo can understand the incredible expressions of these two people. Yike's main business is abroad, and the merger between Sony Music and Bertelsmann happened in an unrelated industry in the far west. They don't know if the internal connection is normal. .

Even knowing that Yike is now a minority shareholder of Sony Bertelsmann, from a procedural point of view, it is not logical to break the convention and replace a CEO of Greater China.

The power struggle within the Sony Group is not humane.

"What are you doing lying to you?" Fang Zhuo laughed. "What's the benefit of lying to Sohu's Mr. Zhang? Sohu's Mr. Zhang can only be bullied by me. How can he be trampled on by outsiders?"

Zhang Chaoyang: "..."

Ma Dian nodded pretendingly: "The words are rough but the rationale is not rough."

Zhang Chaoyang asked doubtfully, "Really?"

"Really, Mr. Zhang, you are too inferior." Fang Zhuo shook his head and said, "Let me teach you, take the phone and call Feng Yiqiang just now, and just say a word."

Zhang Chaoyang: "What?"

"Just say, 'Mr. Feng, I'll teach you the rules of the imperial city'." Fang Zhuo took a sip of his wine and asked Ma Dian, "So, is that okay?"

Ma Den touched his chin: "Okay."

He suddenly thought of some rumors about the real estate industry in Shanghai, what made the Li family look at Mr. Fang's face and so on.

It seems that the rumors are true.

Zhang Chaoyang said seriously: "Boss Fang, are you kidding me?"

"Really, if you want to take a breath, that's it. If you don't want to, it's up to you." Fang Zhuo got up, "It's here today, Lao Zhang, Lao Zhang, you are really too lazy."

Zhang Chaoyang still looked at Mr. Fang with some uncertainty.

Ma Dian also got up. He thought the bar was too noisy, so he patted Mr. Zhang when he walked out: "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Xinfang, he has a high rank, you should learn from him."

Zhang Chaoyang: "..."

The interest in the bar was spoiled.

After Fang Zhuo and Ma Dian left, Zhang Chaoyang didn't drink any more and left the bar quickly.

The cold wind blowing in the early morning made him even more annoyed.

Zhang Chaoyang decided to trust Mr. Fang once, and this trust was given to the richest man in the mainland.

He dialed the phone number of Feng Yiqiang, CEO of Sony Music, and said, "Mr. Feng, you are talking about the rules, right? I will teach you what are the rules at the foot of the imperial city."

Feng Yiqiang heard this sentence before he got on the phone.

He was taken aback for a moment, but there was some worry in his heart. If he came to the capital from Xiangjiang, he would be put in a sack and beat him up, right?

Aren't all those who engage in the Internet honest?
Will it still be done like this?

The phone has been hung up.

Feng Yiqiang felt a little uneasy, changed a hotel room, and then went to bed in the middle of the night.

During the day, nothing happened.

Feng Yiqiang took the warning from Mr. Zhang from Sohu as a joke and shared it with friends in the entertainment circle, thinking that the mainland is the mainland, and even the rich are nothing more than such a style.

"So what if you have money? Can you create a good singer if you have money? Can you buy all the albums?"

"I always see something wrong with that Zhang."

"People from the mainland are from the mainland, speak harsh words and pretend to be fat."

Feng Yiqiang's friends in the entertainment industry are all from Hong Kong and Taiwan, and their words are also funny, and they spread the words of Mr. Zhang of Sohu as a joke.

However, during the party time in the evening, when Feng Yiqiang was hugging a young singer who was about to sign a contract, he suddenly received a call from Sony Group.

It is the Sony Group, the local headquarters, not Sony (Huaxia).

is the most effective direct notification one notch above.

--you are fired.

Feng Yiqiang squeezed the phone and froze in place.

No sign!

Not even a clear reason on the phone!

The dignified CEO of Sony Music Greater China was fired just like that?
Why?
Feng Yiqiang was extremely puzzled and felt baffled. He was stunned for a while before he realized that he called Kenichi Yoshida, chairman of Sony (China), thinking that the notification from the headquarters was a mistake.

"Mr. Feng, thank you very much for your dedication and contribution to Sony Music, but considering the comprehensive development and business changes of the group, I have indeed received a notice of the CEO position change in the Greater China Region." Headquarters decision.

"Then, then me, who will be the CEO? Is someone from the headquarters?" Feng Yiqiang was shocked, and subconsciously asked the replacement candidate.

"Ren Wei, the former vice president of the music copyright business department, served as the CEO." Yoshida Kenichi said.

A mainlander will be the CEO of Sony Music Greater China?

China's international record companies have never had a mainlander take up such a position!
Both the dismissal of himself and the appointment of Ren Wei broke the convention!

Feng Yiqiang ended the call in a daze, not understanding how all this happened.

He sat down in a daze, and for some reason, he thought of the warning from Mr. Zhang from Sohu in the early morning... the rules at the foot of the imperial city?

But, it's impossible!
No matter how strict the rules are, it is impossible to affect the appointment of the headquarters!

What kind of rules are these!

Feng Yiqiang lost his mind.

And the sudden change of his position suddenly made the people who had laughed at Mr. Zhang of Sohu speechless. Unlike Feng Yiqiang who couldn't understand the weirdness of the procedure, the audience didn't need to know this.

All they know is that they were warned in the morning and fired in the afternoon.

This suddenly shocked the music industry!
That's a high-ranking Sony Music CEO in China!
The news of such an appointment, the conflict in the bar that was inquired about, and the rules at the foot of the warning imperial city, all of these spread all at once.

Mr. Zhang of Sohu has become quite famous in some circles, and many socialites are willing to invite Mr. Zhang to attend parties.

As Mr. Zhang was in a good mood, he almost wanted to sell Sohu to Mr. Fang, but he didn't hide it too much, and vaguely mentioned that it was not his own work, but a friend's help.

Details emerged.

Friends of the night, a combination of a shorty and a young man.

It turned out that that was the key to the rules.
