BMG, EMI, Time Warner... And, of course, the vice president of Sony records gathered in Los Angeles at Neville.
When the vice presidents of many record companies arrived at "Neverland", Lin Fengzheng had a barbecue with Avril, Lin Zhiling, Liu YingYing and others. They were very comfortable. Many vice presidents witnessed the situation and felt bitter. But they called in advance and made an appointment with Lin Feng, but when they came, Lin Feng was having a barbecue, which was really irritating.
Many vice presidents of record companies also murmur to themselves. No wonder the CEOs of their respective companies didn't come. They all had a good lesson in the past. They must have come here today to get angry. Therefore, sending these vice presidents not only represents the attention of the record company, but also avoids the humiliation of the president himself.
Vice president, vice president, is used to be angry.
Many vice presidents look at each other, smile bitterly, and brazenly walk to Lin Feng.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Lin, Miss Avril!" Many vice presidents said hello in unison.
Unexpectedly, Lin Feng and others are still baking sausages and other things, ignoring people, which makes many vice presidents feel embarrassed. I want to leave, but I dare not. This time, the president of the company said that the riot caused by "Sony gate" must be calmed down.
Although the riot caused by "Sony gate" subsided slightly due to the resignation of motora, the president of Sony records, there was an undercurrent surging. In particular, the public is quite indignant about the "Sony gate" incident.
Although the record company's ban on singers is not news, it has never been made public. It is a hidden rule, and no singer will challenge the authority of the record company. Now it's Michael Jackson, the "king of pop", who challenges the authority of the record company. With the support of Lin Feng behind him, this undoubtedly makes things extremely difficult. Especially in the Internet age, Lin Feng's "YouTube" undoubtedly makes things more troublesome.
If it goes on, no one knows what will happen in the end.
Of course, neither Michael Jackson nor Lin Feng will let many record companies send their vice presidents to talk about peace. What scares many record companies is Wal Mart, the giant of the global retail chain and the top 500 in the world.
The biggest victims of this "Sony gate" incident are not record companies (including Sony records). Although they have a bad reputation for blocking singers, their fans do not hate the contracted artists of Sony records. As long as Sony records has a little promotion in the future, it will be revealed, The real damage this time is the record industry.
As "Taoer records" and other record companies joined in the blocking incident, although they apologized to their fans, their sales dropped sharply, and most fans began to buy records at "Wal Mart". And this is not a good thing for many record companies. If Wal Mart finally dominates the record sales market, it will not be a good thing for many record companies.
Record companies can control the record industry, but they can't control Wal Mart. Of course, record companies can also ban the sale of records at Wal Mart, but I'm afraid that the record companies can't predict what will happen in the end. The best way is for record companies and Wal Mart to co-exist.
Therefore, many vice presidents came here today to discuss what Lin Feng wanted. If you let Lin Feng toss about like this, things will definitely get out of control in the end, which is not good for everyone. In particular, these record companies also learned that Lin Feng now owns 2% of Wal Mart. It's not much, but it's enough to give these record companies a headache.
"Mr. Lin!" Time Warner's vice president called again.
However, Lin Feng and others are still baking sausage, which makes many vice presidents more embarrassed. Although they are only a vice president, they can be regarded as dignified figures. It's outrageous that Lin Feng is so indifferent. When many Vice Presidents were a little impatient, Lin Feng finally put down his sausage.
"Oh, everyone is here. Please sit down. Please sit down." Lin Feng looked back and saw many vice presidents, a burst of "surprise" on his face. At the same time, he took off the earphone in his ear, and said without the slightest regret, "sorry, sorry, I was listening to the music just now, I didn't hear it."
At this time, next to Avril and others a snicker. Obviously, Lin Feng is talking nonsense. However, for many vice presidents of companies, although they knew that Lin Feng was talking nonsense, they did not dare to investigate. What's more, Lin Feng also gave them a step down. At least there were two earplugs hanging on their ears, which left them some face.
"Sit down, everyone. It's such a fine day today. Isn't it right to have a beer and a barbecue?" Lin Feng said with a smile.
"This..." many vice presidents came to talk about things today, but Lin Feng asked them to sit on the barbecue, which was a bit unexpected. They looked at each other and reluctantly sat down. However, many vice presidents, however, are sitting like needles and felt, with an uncomfortable face.
Lin Feng looks at it and smiles to himself. Just now this play, is for Avril to vent. These record companies unite to crack down on Avril's record company, and almost kill them. Now the situation is reversed, they come to talk about peace. It's too deceiving. If we don't take the opportunity to clean them up today, how can we get rid of their evil spirit.
"Hey, Joker (a servant), help me prepare some barbecue knives and forks and beer for these gentlemen." Lin Feng said.
"Yes, sir." Joker turns and leaves.
Soon after, Joker brought knives and forks and beer to the vice presidents of many record companies.
"Mr. Lin, we are here today to talk with you about something important." The vice president of BMG records had no choice but to take over the knife and fork and beer.
"Isn't that the same? It's not very pleasant to talk about things while drinking beer, eating barbecue, enjoying the sunshine?" Lin Feng sent a roasted sausage to his nose, sniffed it, bit it down, and his mouth was full of oil.
"Can..." BMG vice president also want to explain, but was interrupted by Lin Feng.
"Avril, give me some paper and ice beer. It's hot!" Lin Feng said.
"Take it. Look at you, like a child." Avril burst out laughing and handed Lin Feng paper towel and ice beer.
Many vice presidents of record companies have a black line on their faces. It's not like talking. It's obviously flirting.
Lin Feng is laughing in his heart. Fortunately, it's the vice president. If it's the president, Lin Feng doesn't dare to play like this. After all, the vice president is just a vice president. Playing with the vice president does not hurt the overall situation.
However, although he knew that he was being played by Lin Feng, many vice presidents could only pretend to be deaf and dumb, as if they didn't know.
"By the way, where were we?" Asked Lin Feng.
"Er..." the vice presidents of many companies were speechless for a while.
Just then, several people came in from the outside.
"Hi, Avril!" Cried a female voice.
Many vice presidents are very familiar with this voice. They subconsciously look back, but they are surprised. It's not someone else. It's pop diva Maria Kelly, and there's a girl beside her. Although she's not as famous as Maria Kelly, many vice presidents still know her. She's also a girl. She's one of the members of the original "the lady of destiny" (which has been dissolved), Beyonce.
What are they doing here—— The vice presidents of the record company were surprised.
When Lin Feng saw Beyonce, her heart also jumped wildly.
Maria Kelly and Beyonce did not expect to see so many vice presidents of record companies here. They were stunned, especially at the respectful attitude of many vice presidents of record companies towards Lin Feng.
"Hi, Maria Kelly, Beyonce, let's go in and talk." Avril clapped her hands, jumped up, and led Maria Kelly and Beyonce in.
Many vice presidents of record companies are very curious and want to have a look with them. But now they have to talk with Lin Feng about business, but they still barely hear a few words -- contract, signing and so on.
Are Maria Kelly and Beyonce going to sign up for Avril's record company—— The vice president of the record company was shocked. If so, I'm afraid that Avril records will rise rapidly. With Avril's own strength, Michael Jackson's strength, and Lin Feng, the third richest man in the world, as well as Wal Mart's support, I'm afraid that Avril records will become no less powerful than any record company present.
Thinking of this possibility, many Vice Presidents were frightened. However, the immediate important thing is to negotiate with Lin Feng, so that Lin Feng will no longer use "YouTube" and "Google" influence to influence the public opinion on the Internet, causing trouble to many record companies, especially record companies.
After thinking about it, many vice presidents looked at each other and decided not to procrastinate any more.
"Mr. Lin, I believe you should be clear about our purpose. We have also brought our sincerity. " Vice president of Time Warner came up with a contract, and vice presidents of other record companies also came up with a contract one after another.
"This is about the MP3 music license agreement of the online MP3 sales system owned by Mr. Lin's company phantom technology. We will again license phantom technology to sell our company's digital music online. " Time Warner vice president said.
This contract is the best sincerity they can show. They believe that Lin Feng also needs it very much. After all, Lin Feng's "phantom technology" has a biggest competitor - "apple". If it wants to compete with Apple's "iPod", Lin Feng's "phantom technology" needs this License Agreement. This is not only the weakness of phantom technology, but also the reliance of many record companies.
Unexpectedly, Lin Feng did not look at the contract at all, but pushed it aside.
Hum, it's too whimsical to use this kind of contract that you ask me to do—— Lin Feng sneered in his heart. This License Agreement is good for record companies. After all, Lin Feng's "phantom" brings tens of millions of dollars a year, which is very rich, and record companies can share half of the money. Now I use it to prevaricate myself. Isn't it a joke.
"Mr. Lin, I think your phantom technology needs this license agreement very much. In my opinion, we should be able to clear up the misunderstanding between each other, instead of fighting each other like this. " EMI vice president is not only a reminder, but also a threat.
Indeed, if Lin Feng hasn't transferred the "online MP3 sales system" to "Wal Mart", this threat will still work. But now, this threat is too ridiculous for Lin Feng. Moreover, the future is the world of mobile phones, MP3 player has passed its historical period.
"I'm sorry, I'm not going to sign this agreement again." Lin Feng said lightly.
"What Many managers were surprised.
"Ladies and gentlemen, if this is your sincerity, please go back and tell your president that Lin Feng is not the kind of person who can be coaxed with a few candies after being beaten." Lin Feng said coldly.
Many vice presidents frowned.
"What do you want from Mr. Lin?" Time Warner vice president asked helplessly.
"It's very simple. I ask you to apologize publicly, to Avril records, to Avril!" Lin Feng said firmly.
"No way!" Many vice presidents refused. If this is an apology, it will undoubtedly bring a lot of unnecessary trouble to the major record companies, especially in the hearts of the fans will have a very bad impression, they can never agree.
"There's no way." Lin Feng got up and went to the room. "This is the only one I want. It's up to you whether you agree or not."
"Mr. Lin, you are asking too much." Many vice presidents said.
Lin Feng shakes his head with a smile and turns to leave.
Many vice presidents frowned. At the moment, the vice president of Sony records couldn't help shouting, "Mr. Lin, you're too hard for others. It's not necessarily a good thing. If Avril records wants to develop, it can't make too many enemies! "
Today's vice president of Sony records has a good relationship with Motorola. He is very dissatisfied with Lin Feng, so he says with a trace of resentment.
Lin Feng looks at the vice president of Sony records, shakes his head, raises his middle finger and goes away.
Angry—— Many vice presidents are very angry, but Lin Feng doesn't compromise. They have no choice but to go back and tell the president the result of this matter to see what his opinion is. What's more, the arrival of Maria Kelly and Beyonce is also a big event.
With a full stomach gas and not angry, there is a trace of uneasiness, many record company vice president angrily left.
At this time, Lin Feng went to the room with an excited face. Just now, Lin Feng recognized one of them, Maria Kelly, but the other, although Lin Feng was very familiar, he didn't dare to confirm.
If it's Beyonce, it's amazing. Although Beyonce is not so famous now, she will be a pop queen in the future. One Avril, one Maria Kelly and one Beyonce are all pop divas.
Avril's punk style, Maria Kelly's lyric songs, as well as the blues, rap, and Beyonce's R & B, hip-hop style, the styles of the three pop queens are different, but they are all very popular. Of course, there is "king of pop" Michael Jackson, the four pop queens, Avril records can definitely become the most famous record company in the recording industry.
What's more, with his own support and the support of "Wal Mart", Lin Feng dared to ignore the threat of the record company. In the Internet age, it is impossible to completely ban a record company.
Of course, Lin Feng's only hesitation is that Maria Kelly is invited by Michael Jackson to join Avril records, so is Beyonce the same? Of course, even if not, Lin Feng must also pull it into Avril's record company.
Lin Feng can't let go of those Ming people who need to sign a contract for "virtual community of dance group" under "second world".
