Back To 1995

   Immelt, whose bearing became more and more extraordinary, said to Song Yang truthfully and falsely, how much truth there is in what he said can only be guessed.

   "President Immelt, this is a joke, but no one can conquer America's record industry!

   Saipan Music Store and the record industry are just cooperating with each other! "

  In the Bruno Family Club in San Jose, Song Yang met Immelt, who came in a low-key manner. Some things can be done, but there is no need to show off.

After the Saipan Music Store, in conjunction with the American Internet Society, formally passed the Elephant Party members on Capitol Hill and submitted the "America Digital Copyright Protection Act" to Capitol Hill, BMG and EMI of the five major record groups, in order to express their support for Saipan The support of the music store has successively reached a cooperation with the Saipan music store.

Universal Music and Sony Music are still hesitating, but they have also handed over part of the record copyright to Saipan Music Store. They have to express themselves, even if they pretend, otherwise no one will dare to cooperate with them in the future.

  Hollywood, why there is no way for platforms such as Scour and Napster is because America does not have a real digital copyright protection law.

Traditional books, records, movies, TV dramas and other things are naturally protected from infringement by the federal copyright law. If they can be placed on the Internet, they will not be applicable. They can be done without prohibition. Although this is bullshit, it can be used by In the blank period, Napster can wrestle with Hollywood, which is the strength of Sean Fanning, and may even win the lawsuit.

Now, Saipan Music Store will fill this void as a "messenger of justice". This bill is also the second time after Bill 230, known as the Internet's death gold medal, that the American Internet Society represents the entire Internet industry. , to formally submit the bill to Capitol Hill.

   Once this bill is passed, in the future, Internet entertainment platforms like Scour and Napster who want to play empty-handed white wolf tricks will never appear again!

Many small and medium-sized Internet companies who did this trick wailed all over the place, scolding Saipan music stores for taking their bowls to eat, and laying down their bowls and scolding mothers. Where is the music store so easy to get the record copyright library from the major record giants.

But no matter how much you scold it, it will not change. Saipan Music Store will become the largest digital music platform in the Internet industry. Napster has also become the number one opponent of Saipan Music Store. Will willingly go to the Saipan music store to pay for music to download? !

   Blocking people's way of making money is like killing parents. Saipan Music Store and Napster, of course, have no grudges. Song Yang has no opinion on Sean Fanning, the genius of the new generation of the Internet.

   As for the media, the concocted Song Yang is not used to the new generation of Internet geniuses such as Sean Fanning and Kalanick, and it is a gimmick to "combine" with the record group, which is simply bullshit.

   It is just now that the Saipan Music Store and Napster are different platforms, and Napster must be killed before the Saipan Music Store can cut the leeks in an open and honest way!

Sean Fanning is still struggling, and there are also some die-hard Napster users who are cheering for Napster, but their arms can't twist their thighs. Facing the evil dragon of Saipan Music Store, Sean Fanning, the dragon-slaying boy, is still in the end. Might be a pity...

This is also the expectation of hundreds of thousands of practitioners in the entire record industry, and even the entire America finance, taxation and other departments. It really killed the record industry. Hundreds of thousands of record practitioners lost their jobs. Lijia's tax department charged a large amount of tax less, which no one wanted to see. In contrast, only a Napster died and the ambition of a dragon slayer was the lowest cost.

He picked up his coffee and took a sip. Immelt has no groundless speculations from the media or conspiracy theories of some people about the big drama of the record industry. He has enough knowledge about the intrigue in these industries, because GE Played even more outrageous!

   "Presumably, the mysterious overseas venture capital foundation behind Scour, Song, you should know it?"

  Immelt thinks about the turmoil in the record industry. When the tide goes out and you can see who is swimming and who is taking the most advantage, you can see the whole thing clearly.

   To be honest, Immelt admires this one. Who would have thought that in the end, the guy with big eyebrows and big eyes in the corner of the Saipan Music Store had the last laugh.

First support the Scour platform, drive away the tigers and merging with the record industry, and support the Dimeng MP3 to dig a corner, forcing several major record groups to choose to cooperate with Saipan Music Store, and finally to cross the river and demolish the bridge, Immelt It feels that even if he is the manipulator himself, he may not be able to handle things to this extent!

  Song Yang laughed, neither admitting nor denying, but just picked up the teacup and gave Immelt a cup of tea instead of wine.

This time in the record industry, Song Yang was just pushing the boat along the way, and he "stoked the flames" a little bit. It's just that the big drama in the record industry has come to an end temporarily. In at least ten years, Saipan Music Store is going to embrace it. With the gold mine of digital music, you can lay down and earn some years.

   "Congratulations to President Immelt. I think I can hear the news that President Immelt has become the new head of GE before Christmas at the latest!"

  Song Yang also touted to Immelt that the major acquisition of Honeywell Group, led by the current head of General Electric Welch and General Dynamics President McNina, is now in trouble.

   Just when GE and Honeywell were both negotiating the purchase price, Airbus started protesting, and the European Trade Commission took advantage of the situation to suspend the deal!

  Although it did not say that it was a permanent suspension and would not let Honeywell Group leave Europe, at least for a short time, GE will not want to get Honeywell.

This is Welch's biggest setback at the end of his career. He wants to make his entire career a legend. The acquisition of Honeywell is his last battle, but now it is clear that there is not much left before he leaves GE. Time has passed, and this acquisition cannot be resolved.

   In the same way, Immelt's biggest competitor for the head of General Electric, McNina, also touched the nose.

   Now in front of Immelt, as long as there is a big news, for General Electric, to build another giant with $200 billion or even $300 billion, then he will become General Electric, it will be a sure thing!

In the face of Song Yang's compliments, Immelt has no place for humility. At this point, when you want to take the position of the head of General Electric, Immelt can't be humble. Let, just kick yourself out of the game.

"hope so!"

   "Song, ICQ's merger with NBC Group and Comcast TV Network must start, and now is the time!"

   In advance of this matter, Immelt's voice subconsciously raised a few points. This was something they had already discussed for a long time. Immelt had waited too long for this day.

In America, what is the most direct criterion for evaluating a professional manager? The answer may be all kinds of strange, such as Gerstner who saved IBM, Joetus who saved Wang An Group from fire and water, Steve Jobs who was saving Apple, etc. Probably all counts among the characters in these criteria.

   But if a professional manager is to be described as a legend, it is only Welch. This man has brought General Electric from a company with a market value of 10 billion US dollars to a height of nearly 400 billion US dollars.

  Whoever becomes Welch's successor will be under a lot of pressure, and even becoming his replacement will be difficult.

   But Immelt is not reconciled and becomes the shadow of someone. If he can create a giant whose market value is almost as good as that of General Electric before taking office, who would dare to say that he is just a substitute?

   Looking at Immelt, whose eyes were almost overflowing with ambition, Song Yang felt that no one was more suitable than Immelt for taking the blame.
