I was born again with 100 million

Chapter 401 Jobs' plan!

The next morning, Lin Xiao met Mike Grenfell, whom Fadell had found through various relationships in Los Angeles.

This is a person who has been in Hollywood for nearly 20 years. He has worked as an independent musician, joined a record company, worked as a manager, and opened a company...

This guy's only hobby is probably tossing. Anyway, there is no job he can do for a long time.

Of course, this guy also has a great advantage, that is his connections.

He has been in Hollywood for such a long time, and he has been in contact with a lot of people in different jobs. Whether it is a major record company or a well-known singer or movie star, he can say a few words.

So now Mike Grenfell is active as a middleman in every corner of Hollywood, connecting different people and facilitating cooperation.

To put it bluntly, it's a bit like a pimp, but Mike Grenfell is obviously more advanced.

Another very important reason for Lin Xiao to find him is that this person has a very good reputation.

There are many people in Hollywood who approach Mike Grenfell for work, but until the matter is done, no one ever knows what the client is looking for him for.

As a middleman, being able to keep his mouth shut is undoubtedly a very important reason why he can get along well in Hollywood.

Mike Grenfell is about 40 years old, tall and tall, half a head taller than Lin Xiao.

When shaking hands, the palm of the hand is slightly hard, and with the smiling tone, it is easy to feel his enthusiasm.

"Mr. Lin, nice to meet you, I have used your products, U disk, Gplayer, Gpod, all are great! You are younger than I thought!"

Lin Xiao smiled and looked at this guy who was unknown to outsiders but was very famous in the circle.

"I'm also very happy to meet the famous Mr. Mike. I have heard about Mr. Mike's ability a long time ago, so this time we approached Mr. Mike. I hope you can help us to facilitate some cooperation."

Mike laughed when he heard Lin Xiao's words, "Dude, I like your directness, come on, let me hear your thoughts."

Based on the other party's good reputation, Lin Xiao didn't hide anything, and started to speak out his thoughts.

After listening to Mike Grenfell, his face became more serious, "Man, you want to establish copyright cooperation with several major record companies, which means I have to negotiate with five companies, which is not easy .”

"Oh, not only that, well-known Hollywood singers still have the right to speak in terms of music copyright authorization, and even record companies have to respect their wishes."

When Mike Grenfell said this, he glanced at Lin Xiao again, "And as far as I know, Suo Ni and you don't seem to be friendly."

"Yes, so Suo Ni is not among my partners in this negotiation. As for those well-known singers, I am sure to persuade them to agree."

"Are you sure?" Mike Grenfell glanced at Lin Xiao in surprise.

Lin Xiao nodded, "As long as I create an opportunity for them to accept the communication with me, I am confident that I can persuade them."

For this point, Lin Xiao is indeed very confident.

Whether they are well-known singers or not, as long as they are still active in the circle, their greatest need is-good songs!
And Lin Xiao happened to have a lot of them here. In his previous life, he not only listened to Chinese songs, he also listened to some well-known English songs.

Even in his previous life, in order to write a report on the Grammy Awards, he also specially studied songs in this regard.

The songs that can be selected for the Grammy, whether they are award-winning or just nominated, are very touching. With such songs, he has enough confidence that even those well-known singers will be tempted.

This is a very important trump card in his negotiations. Of course, there are so many songs, who to give or how to give, which is obviously a bit tricky.

After hearing what Lin Xiao said with certainty, Mike Grenfell laughed at this moment, and said in a relaxed tone:
"Record companies want benefits. As long as they see the benefits, it's not easy to convince them, but it's not that difficult. On the contrary, those singers are all very individual. If you can handle them, I think There should be no problem with this."

Speaking of this, Mike Grenfell suddenly changed the subject.

"Now let me be more direct, Mr. Lin, if I contributed to this matter, how much can I get paid?"

The other party's direct question also made Lin Xiao laugh.

"Mr. Mike makes an offer."

Mike Grenfell holds up a finger.

"100 million yuan!"

"This price is really high!" Lin Xiao couldn't help muttering in his heart after hearing the quotation. If he could really convince a few record companies, it would probably only take ten days and a half a month, even if it took longer. Not more than a month either.

Earning 100 million yuan in a month, Mike Grenfell's earning speed is definitely leveraged, and more importantly, the other party does not need capital.

Of course, the other party's network resources are their own value.

Although it was a bit expensive to mutter, but Lin Xiao almost agreed directly without too much hesitation.

Although 100 million yuan is a lot, for Lin Xiao at this time, it is not a huge sum of money. After all, your income from shorting Inktomi in the past two days is dozens of times that.

Moreover, if the cooperation with the record company can really be facilitated, the income it can bring will definitely far exceed this.

So at this time, Lin Xiao readily agreed and said, "No problem! Mr. Mike, as long as you can help the four record companies to license digital music copyrights to Eternal Technology, I will pay a commission of 100 million."

"Mr. Lin is indeed a man who will do great things!" Mike Grenfell said with a smile, "Just wait for my good news."

After speaking, the two left each other's contact information, and Mike Grenfell left.

Meanwhile, Apple Inc.

Jobs listened to the report of Jeb Jon, who was in charge of product development, and looked at the things in his hands, his brows were slightly frowned, and his tone was extremely dissatisfied.

"Three months! In three months, you will come up with such a design product for me?"

"Gpod has a capacity of 5G, but ours only has 64MB. What's the difference between this and the product that was killed by Suoni?"

"And look at this button, it's a design that smells like shit, there is no aesthetic at all! Look at the Gpod, can you see such a button on it?"

Listening to Jobs' scolding, Jeb Jon said with a slightly bitter face: "President, the Gpod hard drive is made by Dongzhi, but they said that this technology does not belong to Dongzhi, so they can't provide us with a small hard drive. "

"As for the buttons, we have tried many methods, but we haven't found a suitable solution. Gpod's rotating wheel design has applied for an appearance patent, which is impossible for us to use, and they have registered several appearance patents."

After listening to Jeb Jon's words, Jobs was silent for a while.

"Gpod, why doesn't it belong to Apple?"

Sighing slightly in his heart, Jobs felt a lot of disappointment in his heart, but he still accepted the fact that it was not possible to make a product of the same level as Gpod for the time being.

Because during this period of time, he himself has been paying attention and thinking, but there is not much to do at this time.

For a full three minutes, Jobs didn't speak.

It wasn't until Jeb Jon couldn't help calling Steve Jobs that he suddenly spoke.

"Perhaps, we can start with music software."
