Reborn Star Road

Chapter 57 Flagship Store

Chapter 69 flagship store
Now that he no longer has any worries, Sun Hao is ready to do it with great fanfare.

In the next few days, Sun Hao first asked Song Chunfeng to see if there was any suitable house, and Song Chunfeng did not disappoint Sun Hao. In just three days, he found a better house. It is a small two-story building of [-] square meters, but the location of the house is not next to the school, but next to the bustling commercial street in H City.

This store used to be a foreign trade clothing store, but because the owner wanted to develop abroad, he planned to rent out the house, and because the location of the house was relatively good, the rent offered by the owner was also relatively expensive, 30 yuan. year.

After hearing about this incident, Sun Hao followed Song Chunfeng to investigate the scene.

Sun Hao found that the location and layout of this house are very good, it is very suitable for an Internet cafe, and the house is located in a commercial street, the source of customers will be more objective, because many shopping malls or some couples are tired from shopping Sometimes, in addition to going to coffee shops or teahouses, there is a great possibility to come to Internet cafes to surf the Internet, and Sun Hao believes that the environment of Internet cafes designed by himself will definitely be better than teahouses.

But at the same location, Song Chunfeng heard that other merchants rented their stores for about 20 yuan.

The location here is very good, but unfortunately there is only one house for rent, so after negotiating the price with the boss all morning, the two parties finally set the rent at 25.

After finishing the house, Sun Hao and Song Chunfeng went to the place where they purchased the computer last time and found the supplier.

Sun Hao considered that according to the layout of the house, it would be no problem to put down 70 computers. Sun Hao and Song Chunfeng made a budget. After deducting the rent, decoration expenses and the money for purchasing the overall equipment, Sun Hao still had 4000 computers. More than [-].In this way, the average cost per computer is less than [-] yuan.

The suppliers in the computer city were also very excited when they heard about Sun Hao's procurement plan, because Internet cafes were not yet popular at this time, and only some companies could purchase computers in such a batch, so Sun Hao bought two hundred at a time. Taiwan is also a relatively large customer.

Because the computer is updated relatively quickly, the price of the computer at this time is already much cheaper than the computer purchased by Sun Hao and the others two months ago, and the configuration is also slightly better.

Therefore, Sun Hao ordered [-] computers with uniform configuration according to the computer configuration purchased last time, and set a delivery time.

The next day, the two came to the previous decoration company again, showed the decoration plan prepared in advance, and hired a group of decoration teams.

Sun Hao thinks this way, since the newly opened Internet cafe is bigger than the original one, then make it a flagship store. Didn’t there be many chain Internet cafes in the previous life?Then Sun Hao plans to make Haotian Internet Plaza into a chain model. Taking advantage of the fact that Internet cafes have not yet been fully rolled out, he will open a few more stores to lay a solid foundation for future competition, and the original Internet cafe will be changed. ingredient store.

In terms of VIP, Sun Hao plans to adopt a model in which one card can be used for consumption in any two Haotian Network Plazas. This will not only attract customers, but also further consolidate the VIP group.

Since the flagship store is going to be built, the required waiters and network administrators are essential, so Sun Hao asked Song Chunfeng to recruit staff, and went back to the newly rented house to supervise the decoration of the house.

Within a few days, Song Chunfeng had already recruited all the people required by the group. There were four network administrators, two cashiers and two cleaning staff. Because the previous Internet cafe was full of customers, Sun Hao knew that he would only hire one or two. The network administrator was too busy, so he simply asked Song Chunfeng to recruit more.

After Song Chunfeng took over Sun Hao's job of supervising the construction, Sun Hao returned home, because there was still one thing to do at this time, and that was the matter of Haotian Music Network.

Because Ren Xianqi promised Sun Hao to add his own songs to Sun Hao's music website, and when Sun Hao was leaving, he also gave Sun Hao some songs of other singers, and told Sun Hao that these people also hoped to share their songs. The song is added to the website.So at this time, Sun Hao was ready to start work.

Opening the management platform of the website, Sun Hao was surprised to find that the number of visits to the website had risen to a huge 1000 million, and Sun Hao checked it carefully. In the past month, the average number of visits per day was also 30 about.

If such data were in [-], it would undoubtedly be regarded as a relatively good website. Although it is not as amazing as the portal website in terms of traffic and PV value, it is still much better than some medium-sized music websites.

You know, this is [-], not nine years later. At this time, there are still relatively few people using computers, and there are even fewer people connected to the Internet. It is amazing to have hundreds of thousands of visits per day. that's it.

Looking at it, Sun Hao's songs are still in the top few, and the number of votes is much lower than that of the songs of the following bands. This makes Sun Hao feel proud. It seems that these Sun Hao plagiarized from his previous life Songs are relatively easy to be accepted by the public now.

When managing the background, Sun Hao discovered that some individuals or bands also uploaded their songs to Sun Haotian Music Network. This is the effect Sun Hao wanted. If a music website cannot accumulate songs from netizens , it’s not really a music website anymore. If the website only put some songs of star singers on the website, it’s okay now, but after a few years, when Internet singers are blooming everywhere, if there are no songs uploaded by netizens spontaneously, the music website will be useless. will fall.

Sun Hao listened to the songs uploaded in those online games, and found that there were quite a few outstanding works in them. Looking at their vote counts, some of them had surpassed the songs of these bands in H City.

This is very normal. After all, these bands in City H are also civilian singers. They can be said to be of good quality in City H, but in the whole country, they are somewhat dwarfed by those original artists with relatively high levels. China has never There is a lack of talent, what is lacking is discovery.

When seeing these songs, Sun Hao suddenly discovered a user name called Huang Junpeng. This person also uploaded a lot of songs, but they were all original songs.

Sun Hao's interest has come up, because what Sun Hao, who is planning to open an entertainment company, needs some music talents most now, and now seeing this user who uploads a dozen original songs by himself, how can Sun Hao Not excited?So Sun Hao opened the album of Huang Junpeng, ready to listen to the songs he made.

If you don’t listen, you don’t know. Once you hear it, you almost want to spit out the food that Sun Hao just ate. Why?Because almost none of the songs uploaded by this singer named Huang Junpeng are not out of tune. What makes Sun Hao depressed is that this singer always sings around the normal tone when singing, but does not rely on the correct tone. go up.

There are also a lot of comments from netizens on this song. Many people say that this singer has too much personality, and Sun Hao thinks so too. A song can have a single note that is not in the right place, completely treating the accompanying band as a straw dog , How can such a song not have personality?

After a few songs, Sun Hao was sweating. Now Hao Sun wondered what the people who accompanied him at that time thought. Did they think the same as Sun Hao?

"Huh?" Just as Sun Hao was about to give up the singer and close his album, he suddenly found a problem.

That is, although this singer named Huang Junpeng sings badly, the lyrics are still very good.

Sun Hao carefully looked at each of the lyrics written by Huang Junpeng, and was pleasantly surprised to find that this person's lyrics are absolutely top-notch. Every song he wrote is as gorgeous as poetry, and it is simply better than the popular ones now. The lyrics of the songs are better.

A person who sings very badly but writes very well?Thinking of this, Sun Hao smiled helplessly. It seems that God is fair. He gave a person the inspiration to write poetry-like lyrics, but did not give him a good voice.

So Sun Hao added him as a friend according to the contact information left by Huang Junpeng, but Huang Junpeng seemed to be offline and didn't respond for a long time. Originally, Sun Hao wanted to contact him to see if he could come to help Sun Hao, but look It looks like we have to wait.

Next, Sun Hao unpacked the CDs that Ren Xianqi gave him, and took out a list of songs. When he saw this list, Sun Hao couldn't help being stunned.

Because Ren Xianqi gave Sun Hao these few CDs are almost all songs by very famous singers.

Because Ren Xianqi is a member of Rolling Stone Records, and Rolling Stone Records has a great influence in Taiwan, a large number of singers have signed contracts.

The full name of Rolling Stone Records is "Rock Records Co., Ltd." (Rock Records Co., Ltd), a Taiwanese record company founded by brothers Duan Zhongyi and Duan Zhongtan in 1980, is currently the largest independent record company in Asia.

In 1980, the brothers Duan Zhongtan and Duan Zhongyi who founded the "Rolling Stone" magazine, because they were not satisfied with simply introducing Western music on paper, had the idea of ​​making their own pop music for the Chinese. Based on the "Rolling Stone" magazine, Rolling Stone Records was established.The company's first record is "Friends Song" by Tao Dawei (Tao Ba's father) and Sun Yue.The Duan brothers, Peng Guohua, Wu Chuchu, Li Lifen, Pan Yueyun, together with Zhang Aijia who later transferred from Gelin to Rolling Stone, Qi Yu who transferred from Xinge, and Luo Dayou who recommended himself, opened up the entrepreneurial history of Rolling Stone.

"Original + humanities" was the main style of Rolling Stones during this period. In the words of Wu Zhengzhong, the general manager of Rolling Stones at the time: "It was really a golden age, and there was a lot of room for doing anything."

The Rolling Stones are ready to break out of the ordinary. In 1989, Luo Dayou, who returned from overseas, took the lead to set up a "Music Factory" in Hong Kong. He gathered Huang Bei, Huang Yaoming, Lin Xi, Hua Piao and other musicians, produced and released albums such as "Queen's Road East" and "Pearl of the Orient" series of records , recommended Taiwan's excellent pop music in Hong Kong, and obtained the production and distribution rights of Du Dewei and Anita Mui's Mandarin records. In 1993, Hong Kong Rolling Stone Branch was established, and Rolling Stone officially landed in Hong Kong.

Since 1989, Zhang Peiren and producer Jia Minshu went deep into the BJ music circle, made continuous investigations, and established Moyan Culture.The appearance of Moyan gave a shot in the arm to the poor pop music in the mainland at that time. The two records of Black Panther and Tang Dynasty have become the masterpieces of Chinese rock music, and "China Fire I" gathered the most popular music in the mainland at that time. A band with a new idea.Later, China Fire produced a series of records by Zhang Chu, He Yong, and Dou Wei (Three Masters of Moyan) who left the Black Panther, and promoted them in Taiwan.

At this time, Rolling Stones seemed to be an international company with smooth production and distribution channels. The development of the Hong Kong and mainland markets was the main goal of this period. However, Rolling Stones was eager to become a collection of excellent music from the Chinese world, which cost a lot of money and manpower. In the development of overseas markets, the tolerance of the small local market in Taiwan has been somewhat ignored, which has also laid the groundwork for the failure of several brands in the future.

The joining of Leslie Cheung is undoubtedly a very glorious milestone for the Rolling Stones. The Rolling Stones have also begun their "superstar era". With Lin Yilian, Du Dewei, Weng Qianyu, and the original elite soldiers, the Rolling Stones are becoming more and more like a "star factory".

This is also a period of change. Jushi Records was sold to BMG, and there are no more independent creators. The kings and queens who were built with a lot of money in the past have left or retired one after another, so they can only focus on the development of newcomers. In 1996, Moyan Records was officially registered in Taiwan, which also shows that the center of gravity of Moyan has shifted back to Taiwan. Therefore, in the following two years, China Fire only produced records of Wang Yong and Zhou Ren in the mainland, and there was no follow-up. In Taiwan, Moyan successfully launched Yang Naiwen, Shunzi, Li Yuhuan, Chen Qizhen and Zhang Zhenyue after retiring from the army. They all performed well in terms of strength and depth of music, but after all, they still focused on niche audiences and did not completely please the market. .

A major change in the Rolling Stones during this period was the rise of the Korean Rolling Stones.The Rolling Stones took the lead in introducing Taiwan's Clon (cool dragon) chorus group and achieved a record of 40 copies.Next, HOT, SES, etc. were vigorously introduced, and their singers were arranged to cover Korean songs. Su Huilun's "Duck" was a great success.And Xu Huaiyu, who was planned and launched according to his successful experience, was even more popular, setting a record for the highest sales volume of Rolling Stone's newcomers.So the "Korean style" at that time became the main strategy of the Rolling Stones, and Tingting, who imitated the Korean combination model and launched the Kiss combination, did not get the expected results in the end.Rolling Stone's singer team is getting younger and younger, and most of them are idols.

In 2000, due to economic factors and the sluggish record market, Rolling Stones downsized and integrated its various production companies. "Tornado" came to an end after the release of Yin Ziwei's album.At the end of the same year, Zhang Peiren, the founder of Moyan Records, left Moyan, leaving only two subsidiaries of Rolling Stone in Taiwan, Moyan and Fengyun. In 2001, Moyan Records also came to an end, and its singers transferred to Rolling Stone.Later, he established Warring States Music in BJ, established a distribution department in Shanghai, and turned to the mainland for development.

When the tide of R&B and Hip-Hop hit, the "big circus" under Moyan launched rappers such as McHotdog and Dazhi, and Rolling Stone also pushed Kong Lingqi to do hip-hop music.After the popularity of Japanese and Korean dramas, Rolling Stone did not forget to ask Xin Xiaoqi to cover the theme songs of Japanese and Korean dramas. F4 was successful, and Rolling Stone made Xu Shaoyang and Li Wei famous by shooting idol dramas first.It can be seen that Rolling Stone is very careful, it must adapt to this impetuous era.But it is a pity that it seems that the Rolling Stones did not have a singer who can call the wind and rain again. The reason may be bad luck or poor management.In short, the Rolling Stones were overwhelmed, dragging their exhausted body and reluctantly handed over the distribution rights to Universal, one of the "Big Five".However, it still retains the distribution rights in the mainland. This may be an omen, just like an old friend greets you. Rolling Stone pats you on the shoulder and says: "Take care! I will come back!" I hope this old saying has come true : "Old man, his ambition is thousands of miles. The martyr's old age is full of ambition."

Among the songs given to Sun Hao by Ren Xianqi, there are some songs by Zhao Chuan, Wu Bai, Zhang Xinzhe, Zhou Huajian, and female singers Mo Wenwei, Liu Ruoying, and Liang Jingru.

"Get rich." Looking at the thick catalog of songs, Sun Hao smiled happily.

Because Sun Hao's music website was originally going to be charged, and now with the addition of these songs, the website will definitely become popular all of a sudden.When it's time to charge, let's see if we can use Ren Xianqi's relationship to sign an agreement with these singers and give them more share. These people themselves are also following Sun Hao's music website to gain fame.At that time, without affecting the sales of their albums, they must release more of their new songs, and the income will be very considerable.

It took Sun Hao a day to upload these songs on the Internet, and packaged them in categories, because these are big-name stars, it seems not good to put the songs on Sun Hao's website and Sun Hao does not promote them, so Sun Hao A relatively large recommendation column was drawn on the homepage to introduce these singers.

After everything has been sorted out, Sun Hao is going to the flagship store to see how the decoration is going. Because school is about to start, Sun Hao and Song Chunfeng plan to open the store as soon as possible.

Sun Hao walked out of the house, because the weather was relatively good, and the flagship store was not far from Sun Hao's home, so Sun Hao planned to walk there.

Halfway through the walk, Sun Hao suddenly saw a man following a girl, and quietly reached out to the girl's satchel.
