Riding the wind of rebirth

But just now Zhou Zhi thought of something else. A cunning style like Hu Tianyu’s is too easy to arouse others’ vigilance. On the contrary, a cute style like An Chunjia’s is more likely to make others confused.

"These are things we are talking about that have not happened." Zhou Zhi said with a smile: "So maybe we are using a villain's heart to make others a gentleman. Therefore, Quail Jia, just work hard and cooperate with a good attitude. "Building good relations with foreigners is a 'diplomatic need' in itself. How do you sing that song? When friends come, they have good wine; when enemies come, they have shotguns."

"If you are a friend, then you should be our 'peace messenger,' a leading figure who shows our hospitality to foreign friends. If you are here with ulterior motives, then let's say something else."

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 to be seriously ill. He has been working as a factory owner for a long time, and he thinks he has a heart attack. To friendly people, of course we must send the warmth of the spring breeze and the care of family members. , it’s best to be able to inspire a few comrades, that’s the only way to defeat you.”

"Oh, can I make a request to the organization?" An Chunjia asked.

"What's the request? Although I can't represent the organization, as long as I can do it, there will be no ambiguity!"

"What... elbow, you promised us the elite friendship between the two families, when will it start?" An Chunjia pushed up the frame of her glasses: "You have so many beauties from the Chinese department, you can't satisfy the men, you don't care if they are hungry! "

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.

He signed a "sales contract" with Quailjia Ukitayu and agreed to start socializing 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."

Du Wenxin was concerned about other things: "Monkey and I went to Hong Kong Island to play. We saw someone selling Su Fang's album, so we bought it back. Did you see the elbow?"

"I saw it." Zhou Zhi nodded: "The effect is much better than what was shown on the TV station."

"Yes, "The Love of My Life" is really good." Du Wenxin said, "You are so talented, my elbow."

"I heard that you can also split the money?" Du Xing, a profiteer, has been focusing on efficiency for three minutes.

Now 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.

Because 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, and the true original creators could only enjoy one-third of the revenue.

This situation has been improved with the release of the LD album.

Because LD discs are huge and the recorder equipment is 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 makes LD discs have Anti-copy function.In other words, every LD can only be produced as 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 [-]% 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 Life".

However, this prosperous scene will soon be completely broken, that is, the piracy brought about 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 sharp price reduction of recorders, and the prevalence of the Internet, let The cost of piracy approaches zero.

Therefore, the passion for domestic music creation soon experienced a major recession, record sales fell again and again, and singing could no longer make money except for concerts.

This phenomenon will continue until 20 years later, when laws and regulations are increasingly improved, 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 rise again and the passion of creators will rise again. was rekindled.

Because of the existence of "network amplifiers", although the price of single songs is very low for consumers, it cannot withstand the rapid expansion of the audience. Compared with the current period, the income brought to creators has not only not decreased, but has become more substantial. .

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 why Su Fang wants to develop in Hong Kong Island and why Guan Tingting's songs are released by Rolling Stone.Domestic piracy is too rampant, but at least the revenue from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan can be maintained.

Therefore, it has been quite good in the past few years. 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 of dollars in this month.

Of course, this situation cannot last forever. After new songs push 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. Going to Hong Kong Island for a holiday is too expensive."

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 over there. Isn't it the same as going home when you go there?" Only then did Zhou Zhi realize that the world's Cantonese cuisine comes from Shunde, and the old man's disciples are all over the world, in Hong Kong and Taiwan. There are big hotels in China, Europe and the United States, and everyone can stay at "home" wherever they go, really without spending any money.

Therefore, the joys and sorrows of this person are different from other people. 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, which is why she is not accepted. Might have found it.

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? Brother Niu has not been here these two days, you see I can still cope with it, right?”
