Chapter 994 Launching the Era of National Draft
After New Year's Day in 2001, the pace of time has obviously accelerated a lot.
Day by day, it always slips through the fingers unknowingly.
As the largest music portal site, Qianqianjingting’s influence abroad even exceeds that in China.
Due to the relatively complete protection of music intellectual property rights in the United States, the Music-Store embedded in the Qianqianjingting website is not only very popular, but also integrated with the Lotus Pod and the new Lotus Phone X, firmly locked in End-user market.
For this reason, in addition to traditional distribution channels for newly released music songs every year, the Qianqianjingting website has also become another major channel with extremely high exposure.
Qianqianjingting’s various music lists on the website have quickly grown into one of the most influential lists.
In comparison, the influence of Qianqianjingting’s domestic website is slightly inferior.
Many small music websites have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, taking advantage of the lack of and loopholes in domestic music Internet copyright protection to grow wildly and seize target users.
As a result, it is difficult for Qianqianjingting's domestic website to form effective revenue feedback, and it has always relied on advertising as its main source of income.
Tianqi invests in Xinjiekou Company.
Wu Tao was sitting in the president's office, looking thoughtfully at the report sent by the Los Angeles branch on the listing evaluation of the Qianqianjingting website.
This report pointedly pointed out the disadvantages of Qianqianjingting's listing on Nasdaq.
The lukewarmness of China's local sites is likely to become a problem that affects the confidence of investors and thus the stock price in the future.
This evaluation opinion can be said to be very professional.
As the first professional music website in China, the traffic of Qianqianjingting website has already reached its peak and started to decline.
Due to competition from many small music websites, the decline in traffic is likely to continue.
If nothing is done, it will be listed on Nasdaq.
The problem isn't too big, but don't expect great performance.
In fact, in the evaluation report sent by Wu Yingying, there was even a plan to spin off the overseas station of Qianqianjingting and list it separately.
From an investment perspective alone, this may be correct.
But firstly, Hu Ning, the founder of the music website, was not very happy, and secondly, Wu Tao, the boss, also felt that it was not suitable.
We must find a way to increase the influence of Qianqianjingting’s domestic website and restore its prestige as a major website.
At least for the launch in half a year, it will be a waste of time to sharpen the gun before the battle.
Wu Tao chatted with Xue Jiaqian for a while, but the other party didn't have any better ideas.
Besides, most of Xue Jiaqian's thoughts are on Tianxing Game Company. After all, whether Wang Donglai can turn around by relying on the listing of this game company is directly related to her.
This is human nature, and Wu Tao didn't force it.
So I put on my coat, came out from Tianqi Investment Company, and strolled through the cold and windy Xinjiekou.
The pedestrian street was crowded with people, and Song Zhuang followed closely. The two of them shuttled among the beautiful clouds of people, feeling the increasingly intense New Year atmosphere.
Song Zhuang didn't speak the whole way. He knew that this was the time when his boss came out to let his thoughts wander. Keeping quiet and protecting safety were his only responsibilities.
Walking all the way through the streets and markets, I unknowingly came to the Yangtze River Road.
Wu Tao took a look and saw that the office building of Chen Fang Media and Culture Company was not far away, so he might as well stroll over and take a look.
The two of them arrived at the door of the building one after the other, and happened to meet Chen Fang getting out of the car.
It seems that he just came back from outside, and he still has a few script files in his hand.
Seeing Wu Tao arriving, Chen Fang's wrinkled forehead instantly relaxed, "Boss, have you finally remembered that we are here?"
"What you said..." Wu Tao spread his hands in a humble and low-key manner: "Aren't I afraid of making the mistake of a layman guiding an expert?"
Chen Fang put her arm around him and said, "Just because Tiantian is so famous now, who dares to say that you are an amateur? Besides, I'm not afraid that your guidance is wrong, but I'm afraid that you don't provide guidance!"
With that said, the two of them walked around the front desk of the company and walked inside.
The further inside Wu Tao found out, the more beautiful girls there were in this media company.
However, upon closer inspection, the company's training for singers is the most complete. Most of the beautiful girls want to be singers.
But now in domestic music, it is really difficult to come up with a song that is on the charts.
After all, not everyone has the conditions as good as Ding Tiantian to get a song composed by the boss himself.
Accompanied by Chen Fang, Wu Tao was quickly surrounded by a group of beautiful girls.
People of all heights, legs, and curvy shapes all want to show their face in front of the young boss and soar to the top.
It wasn't until they found Ding Tiantian that the girls dispersed.
Ding Tiantian was instructing several girls with unfamiliar faces on how to speak and sing. Wu Tao listened for a while and sounded like a professional teacher.
Seeing Wu Tao's admiration for Ding Tiantian, Chen Fang took the opportunity to play a tune and said: "With Tiantian's current popularity, it is time for her to have a movie as a foundation before she can reach a higher level. Boss, are you suitable?" A film project or screenplay?”
Facing Chen Fang's expectations, Wu Tao couldn't help but laugh and said, "Do you think I'm Doraemon's treasure bag? I'll have whatever I want?"
Chen Fang sighed, and then said: "Tiantian's perfect conditions in all aspects have limited her career in the film and television industry. No, the crews of "Hedong Lion Roar" and "Infernal Affairs" that she recently applied for were all rejected. .”
"...Even the crew of the domestically produced "Heroes" don't like her and think she is too much. But Tiantian is really hardworking and attentive!"
Wu Tao thought for a while, "Infernal Affairs is a man's movie. Even if Tiantian is given the role, she will probably be a vase. As for the image of the heroine of Hedong Lion's Roar, she should be quite different from Tiantian. Otherwise, you let Tiantian Can you show me the sweet and savage one?"
Chen Fang was helpless.
But Wu Tao waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter. If Tiantian likes a role in the future, you tell me, even if I spend money, I will give Tiantian the role!"
"That's great!" Chen Fang suddenly beamed, and then said: "Boss, don't just take care of Tiantian. You have seen that there are so many beautiful girls in the company. They are all in good conditions. I will help anyone I can." Just a handful!"
When Chen Fang said this, she originally had no hope.
Unexpectedly, Wu Tao suddenly changed the subject and agreed simply: "Okay, I just have an idea right now. Do you want to listen to it?"
Ding Tiantian had finished teaching her skills at this time. She came over and wiped her sweat while saying, "What's a good idea?"
Chen Fang immediately paid great attention to it, pulled Ding Tiantian, and called the girl who was struggling just now to go into the office together.
Everyone in the office sat down, except for the girl who came in behind to serve tea and stood silently.
Seeing this, Ding Tiantian introduced Wu Tao to the other party and said, "This is An Youqi. Her voice condition is very promising."
Wu Tao felt that the other party looked familiar, but he couldn't remember it for the moment.
As soon as Ding Tiantian pulled An Youqi to sit down, Chen Fang couldn't wait to urge her, "Boss, what is this good idea?"
Wu Tao only said seven words: "National Music Competition!"
