The diva and I cross each other

Chapter 104 World Cup Theme Song Collection

"Chu Chu, have another drink."

"Ah? Oh! Right now!" Chen Sichu, who didn't know what he was thinking, jumped up from the sofa when he heard Luo Ming's words and went to make him brown sugar water.

"Sister Wen, are you feeling more comfortable?" Chen Junmiao asked with concern.

Luo Ming nodded and thought: "It seems you can't lie down all the time! Brown sugar water is quite useful."

"Sister Wen, I have something else to do here."

"Say it!"

Chen Junmiao organized the language and said, "Sister Wen, this is what happened. Isn't there a World Cup next year? Now the organizers of the World Cup are collecting theme songs from all over the world as usual, and our company also wants to come up with a song."

Luo Ming had a strange expression when he heard this.

Is the World Cup theme song in this world solicited from all over the world?

Seeing Lin Shuwen's expression, Chen Junmiao thought that Lin Shuwen also felt that the company's decision was outrageous, so she said helplessly: "Sister Wen, do you also think that our company has brought shame on itself?"

Luo Ming nodded along with Chen Junmiao's words.

“I think so too, but not only our company, but also domestic entertainment companies will participate in such a grand event.

Whether you can be selected is one thing, whether you can participate or not is another. "

"Good guy, this is really about participation! So what does the company mean?"

"The company wanted Mr. Huang to write this song, but Mr. Huang refused without even thinking about it, and even said some shocking words."

When Luo Ming heard this, he immediately became interested: "What did Lao Huang say?"

"Teacher Huang said that the music scene in China is abnormal and out of tune with the world. Even if you participate, it is useless work. If you have this time, it is better to have a cup of tea and catch a fish to relax."

"Wow! Lao Huang really dares to say that!" Luo Ming couldn't help but exclaimed.

"No! At that time, Mr. Zhu's face was as dark as a pot. In order to get everyone to come up with songs, he directly offered a million-dollar reward. Whoever can come up with a suitable song for the election will be directly rewarded with 100 million by the company. After that, The meeting was adjourned."

When Luo Ming heard this, he curled his lips in disdain and thought, "Is the theme song of the World Cup worth 100 million?"

However, Luo Ming then thought about it. Huayue spent 100 million probably just to buy a song that could be sent to the competition, and he didn't expect it to be selected.

Thinking of this, Luo Ming couldn't help but complain: "I have one thing to say. In fact, what Huang said is right. It is extremely rare in the world for a country's music scene to be dominated by sad songs and guava for decades.

From the 7s and 80s to the present, the guitar and piano have remained unchanged for the past 6415 and 4536251 years, and the chorus has been replaced by drums. One and one have played most of the songs in the Chinese music world. They are not out of tune with the world. "

"Sister Wen, my dear sister, please stop talking!" Chen Junmiao was startled and almost came to block Luo Ming's mouth.

"I'm telling the truth. You don't have to worry about the walls having ears in my house. Besides, what are we afraid of when we are the only two here?"

Chen Junmiao thought about it, so she pretended to listen attentively. She also wanted to hear what Sister Wen had to say.

"Because music has stretched the hips, the domestic audience has also tightened their aesthetics. If you listen to a lot of songs, you will have long been tired of the overall monotonous melody. If you have studied music theory, you will find that the domestic popularity of Pa Pa Qu The songs were changed over and over with just a few notes, and some leading musicians in China also used samples and excerpts when composing.”

Chen Junmiao was so shocked by "Lin Shuwen's" violent remarks that she was speechless.

But Luo Ming hasn't finished speaking yet. What Luo Ming said is actually the situation in the music scene in his previous life.

The Chinese music scene has the worst copyright protection among the eight major music markets in the world, and is basically useless.

How did the tailors on NetEase and Douyin become so popular in the past ten years? Plagiarism is not a problem in China.

The "Golden Melody Award" is the music award with the highest standards in China, right? A tailor can make four seals.

In this kind of environment, how can any newcomer be willing to write songs well? Discovering talent? Talented people would rather find a factory to work.

A music scene without creative motivation is not called deformity, it is called deformation.

In this time and space, copyright protection is pretty good, and the Golden Melody Awards are being held seriously. This is still much better than in the previous life.

"Sister Wen, you must not say these words out loud."

"Don't worry! I'm not stupid."

"Does Sister Wen want to earn this 100 million?"

"No, I'm not short of money anymore. Luo Ming's game has been a big hit. In less than a week, nearly 120 million copies were sold at home and abroad.

The part sold domestically is tax-free, and there is a 30% commission on Steam. The net profit is almost 8000 million, and I can already rest easy. "

"8000 million! So much!" Chen Sichu, who was pouring black tea, fainted when he heard this astronomical figure.

It’s only been a few days! The company that Sister Wen invested in earned 8000 million! Is Sister Wen an investment genius?

"Calm down, this is where we are! Everything is just beginning. In 2014, "Plants vs. Zombies" sold at least 200 million copies domestically, and 500 million copies abroad.

According to Luo Ming's calculations, this year's revenue from "Plants vs. Zombies" should be around 6 million yuan. "

"Hiss~" Chen Junmiao, who was always calm this time, couldn't help but take a breath.

6 million! This is really an astronomical figure!

"Sister Wen, what will Mr. Luo do after making so much money?"

"He! He needs to build his own server first."

"Server? Do you mean the computer?" Chen Junmiao asked curiously.

"Yes, you can understand that achievement is a super huge computer."

"A super huge computer? A supercomputer?"

"Hey! Chu Chu, you still know about supercomputing!" Luo Ming asked with a hint of teasing.

"Sister Wen, you underestimate me too much. I'm not a fool either."

"But unfortunately you are wrong. Supercomputer and server are not the same thing. In terms of structural principles, there is no difference between supercomputer and server. The difference between them is the core CPU and purpose. Servers generally provide specific services. Yes, the memory may be larger than that of a small supercomputer. On the contrary, supercomputers are computationally intensive applications, and CPU performance is the first priority."

"Um, I didn't understand."

Luo Ming smiled and did not explain further.

According to his plan, Zhuoguang will buy his own server after the Chinese New Year this year. He will directly buy a piece of land near the Fen River in Bingzhou, build a data center, and use Fen River water to dissipate heat for the server.

As for who to purchase servers from, Luo Ming wanted to ask Professor Li first. If Professor Li had no other options, he would go to a certain company.

Rong Mu also knew about Luo Ming's idea. After making money from "Plants vs. Zombies", he had already begun to look for land.

However, Luo Ming and Rong Mu did not completely agree on this matter.

The main difference between the two is whether to purchase a supercomputer directly.

What Luo Ming thought was that the company in Bingzhou would become the game department of Zhuoguang, and the head office would be built in big cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen.

At that time, we will look at the specific cities selected and decide which nearby coastal city to build the supercomputing cluster of Zhuo Guang.

If it is an imperial capital, it must be Tianjin. If it is Shanghai, it is Ningbo, Taizhou, Zhejiang, or a little further away, Weifang, Shandong.

It is completely unnecessary to purchase a supercomputer at the company's current scale.

Luo Ming's idea was obviously more suitable for long-term planning, but Rong Mu was particularly insistent on this matter. He always felt that a supercomputer should be purchased directly.

Rong Mu believes that purchasing a supercomputer now is to prepare for purchasing a supercomputing cluster in the future. At least he can familiarize himself with the way to purchase a supercomputer. Rongmu is learning computers anyway. He knows that our domestic supercomputers have always been at the forefront of the world and there is no need to buy them abroad.

But it is not that easy to buy super-computing in China at this stage.

Rong Mu thinks that if he is familiar with the purchase process first, it will be easier to purchase a supercomputing cluster later.

Luo Ming also understands what Rong Mu is considering, but the problem is that the company's expansion is estimated to be at least in the middle of 15. In the time and space before Luo Ming, it was precisely from 15 that supercomputing became more affordable, both in terms of purchasing channels and prices. Well, there is no need to rush to buy now.

Of course, Luo Ming couldn't directly use this reason to convince Rong Mu.

Generally speaking, when faced with a situation where no one can convince anyone, Luo Ming and Rong Mu would choose to shelve the dispute.

This time they did the same.

There is actually no very clear definition of a supercomputer.

Generally speaking, supercomputers refer to computers that are capable of performing high-speed operations that most personal computers cannot handle.

In other words, as long as it can crush the vast majority of computers of the same era, it can be called a supercomputer, and relatively excellent private servers can also be called supercomputers.

However, the supercomputer Luo Ming and Rong Mu want is not an excellent private server, but a true supercomputer.

And from the beginning, neither Luo Ming nor Rong Mu thought about buying supercomputers from abroad.

Because China’s supercomputer is really strong.

In 2010, the second phase of Tianhe-4700A independently developed by China was successfully developed. It has a peak operating speed of 2566 trillion operations per second and a sustained operating speed of 500 trillion operations. This supercomputer has been in the supercomputer field since its birth. Ranked No. on the TOP list and has been for many years.

Moreover, China’s lead in supercomputers did not only start in 2010.

In November 1992, China's "Galaxy-II" universal parallel supercomputer was successfully developed.

"Galaxy-II" was used in the National Meteorological Center to establish a medium-term digital weather forecast system, making my country one of the few countries in the world that could conduct mid- to long-term weather forecasts of 5 to 7 days.

China's own supercomputer technology is the strongest in the world, so there is no need to ask foreigners to buy supercomputers.

It is even said that before 2016, no country in the world dared to say that it was better than China in high-end supercomputing manufacturing.

However, starting from 2010, China's reform in the direction of high-end supercomputing has led some people to believe that China's leading position in high-end supercomputing no longer exists.

Especially in the latest version of the global supercomputer TOP2021 list released by the International Supercomputing Conference (ISC) in 500, America's new supercomputer Frontier, which is translated as Frontier supercomputer, was rated as the fastest in the world with its absolute advantage. supercomputer.

At the same time, it is also the world's first officially released supercomputer with a floating point operation speed exceeding 10 billion times per second, referred to as E-class supercomputer.

The emergence of "Frontier" also allowed the United States to regain the world's first place in computing speed for a long time.

But the emergence of "cutting edge" does not mean that our technology in this area is lagging behind, but that everyone's development direction is different.

Since 2010, our supercomputers have begun to take the "people-friendly" route and are affordable to everyone.

In Luo Ming's previous life, around 2016, 71% of counties in the south, especially in the two provinces of Guangzhou and Zhejiang, had their own supercomputers.

The circuit analysis of the power grid in the county, the traffic lights of the traffic control department, and the cameras are all controlled by supercomputers.

It is no exaggeration to say that supercomputers are no longer a rare commodity in China, and some relatively wealthy counties even have one supercomputer per department.

Thanks to the efforts from above, the cheapest supercomputer only costs 70 yuan.

A supercomputer with the same performance abroad would cost more than 100 million yuan.

Therefore, no matter from the price, product performance, or daily use, Luo Ming will definitely buy it from China.

Of course the same goes for the server.

"Ding ding ding~" The sudden ringing of the cell phone interrupted Luo Ming's thoughts.

Luo Ming looked down at the caller ID on the screen and found that it was Lao Huang calling.

Why is Lao Huang calling him at this time?

Thinking of this, Luo Ming answered the phone, and Lao Huang's voice came from the receiver: "Shu Wen didn't disturb you, did she?"

"No, is there anything wrong with Teacher Huang?" Luo Ming asked politely.

"You should already know that the company wants to contribute to the World Cup theme song, right?"

"I know, but Teacher Huang, didn't you just reject Mr. Zhu directly?"

"I didn't say I wanted to participate. I just had a melody here that has been echoing in my mind. I made it."

"Teacher Huang wants me to participate?"

"I want you to give this melody to your friend Takiha."

"Oh, I understand, Teacher Huang wants Takiye to try it."

"Yes, it would be great if my melody could give him some inspiration."

"Okay, let me ask for you."

"Then please, I'll send that melody to your mailbox right away." After saying that, Lao Huang hung up the phone.

"Chuchu, take out the laptop in my room." Luo Ming ordered.

Chen Sichu nodded and took out the computer.

Luo Ming clicked on Lin Shuwen's mailbox, and the unread email at the top was from Lao Huang.

Luo Ming opened the email and clicked play.

"Huh? This melody."

"Sister Wen, what's wrong with this melody?"

Luo Ming shook his head and said nothing.

In fact, Luo Ming thought in his mind: "This melody is a bit like the beginning of the 2010 World Cup promotional song "The Flag Begins to Win"."

Luo Ming is considered a Yun fan. He only watches key games and doesn't have a favorite team or player.

To put it bluntly, I just want to watch the excitement, and watch the crying father and mother after losing in the dog betting.

As a cloud fan, the theme song of the World Cup is also an important topic of conversation.

Every World Cup has its own theme song and promotional song, and Luo Ming also listened to them.

The song "Victory" is also very deep in Luo Ming's memory, especially the two eight-beat ohs at the beginning.

It sounds good and powerful, but the key is also very brainwashing.

And Lao Huang's melody is somewhat similar to the two 8-beat oh.

Luo Ming's eyes lit up instantly. The melody sent by Lao Huang reminded him of the feeling when he first heard this song.

Now I have to do something about it!

　The 300 words were delivered on the third day. In addition, the monthly pass just now was enough for . This month, the pressure of words is quite high, and it is really hard to come out. Next month, whether it is a monthly pass or a reward, it will be replenished.
