Chapter 212: Firing; Animation; Seeking Peace
Chapter 212: Firing; Animation; Seeking Peace
No one expected that the first person to "fire the shot" would be the veteran queen Jiang Ying, who has had in-depth cooperation with Times Media.
Even Song Dao couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the news.
But soon, he figured it out.
First of all, this change in various music platforms seems to have the greatest impact on the Feiyang system.
But in reality, it is not friendly to old people like Jiang Ying who have already set up their own studios and become independent.
The company will definitely support newcomers.
Who would invest so many resources in these old guys for no reason?
Secondly, it would be more accurate to say that Jiang Ying is in deep cooperation with Chen Qingshan rather than with Times Media!
This veteran diva made her debut at Times Media.
After becoming famous, he set up his own studio, but it was still affiliated with Times Media.
I have offended many people over the years because of my stupidity.
But when it comes to "loyalty", there's really nothing to complain about.
Just like the “encirclement and suppression” against Song Dao last year.
With her status, there is no need for her to get involved in such muddy waters.
But a phone call from Chen Qingshan made her charge forward without hesitation.
One emperor and one courtier.
Now that Times Media has a new owner, it's a bit embarrassing for a veteran diva like Jiang Ying.
Even if he still respected her, it was impossible for him to be as nice to her as he was when Chen Qingshan was around.
Don't even think about investing resources in her.
Being famous is already awesome, and they won’t be too grateful to the company. It would be better for them to promote newcomers and train them into their own direct subordinates.
Jiang Ying has managed to reach her current position, so even if she is not smart enough, she is not a fool after all.
I am very clear about my current situation.
This old queen who had been competing openly and secretly with Lin Fei, the new generation queen, rushed up unwillingly, thinking that she was still a very capable fighter!
Just like the old rivals Nokia and Motorola, they are still mocking each other with advertising connotations.
Then they were all defeated by the sudden emergence of Apple.
Everyone is confused!
Although this metaphor is a bit inappropriate, that's what I mean.
So she knew very well that if she didn't do something, she would gradually disappear from the public eye like the Feiyang group.
Who could have thought that these music platforms, which were originally fine, would suddenly go crazy to such an extent?
No more pretending.
The hideous face of capitalism is revealed.
If you have money, you will be on the list; if you have no money, you will die.
In the words of an executive of a certain music platform: If your song is good enough, there will naturally be fans willing to vote for you. Not all flowers require money, watching advertisements will also work!
This feeling is awesome!
Jiang Ying has been holding it in for many days.
But that's just the way she is.
I simply couldn't help it.
In fact, even the water blog was deleted and revised.
It was originally a long article.
He criticized all major music platforms.
Fortunately, she is older and not so impulsive anymore. After she finished writing, she sent it to her sister to take a look.
Her sister became anxious when she saw it.
"No, the Feiyang group, which was targeted the most, has not made any move. Song Dao has been releasing songs honestly. Why are you going up to them and saying all this?"
"I'm so fucking angry! Even if I can't beat Lin Fei, Song Dao, or even the younger guys like Kong Xi and Zhong Yutong, at least my song can make it into the top ten after it's released, right? I still have commercial value, right? What's this now? Forget about Long Ge's Drunken Fist, but there's not even a shadow of "A Man Should Be Strong" on the charts. Isn't this fucking outrageous? The movie is in theaters right now!"
"What's the point of getting angry with me? Don't you see what kind of capital is behind these music platforms? Also, I heard that the one who gave these platforms advice was Mr. Li behind Zhang Xia. Do you think our group has really crossed the class barrier? Fighting against capital? You are an adult, don't act so arrogant all the time..."
After being scolded by her sister, Jiang Ying could only say those words with a wronged look on her face.
Even this one sentence is very powerful!
Although most of her fans are not young anymore, she is still a queen after all.
Especially considering her status in the underworld, even though it was just one sentence, it was no different from firing a cannon.
After her blog post, a large group of people including Shi Yuyan, Bi Xuefeng, Zhang Huan, Hou Tianwei and others quickly followed suit.
These people’s personalities can also be seen from their blog posts.
Shi Yuyan, Zhang Huan, Hou Tianwei and others are still habitually playing "edge ball".
It can be seen that the music platforms are being blamed, but no evidence can be found.
It’s the kind of thing where: I’m unhappy, but I’m not saying anything about you!
And Bi Xuefeng...even though he had suffered a loss at the hands of Song Dao before, it seemed that he had learned his lesson.
But in reality, the length is limited.
He directly pointed out the various shortcomings of the charts on various current music platforms.
The only thing that has been learned is that the tone has changed from accusation to "suggestion".
Become: I hope this and that...
Smart people all shook their heads when they saw this.
What do you want?
Who the hell do you think you are?
In fact, these people are in similar situations right now.
Even though Starlight Entertainment has not changed its owner, the strategies are basically the same.
——Praise the young people and ignore the old people.
From a capital perspective, this is understandable.
Not to mention the music industry, the entire entertainment industry is like this.
After all, it is the young people who really spend the money.
Isn’t it because Lin Fei and Song Dao, the Feiyang group of people, are so popular that they are still young?
Compared with Hu Wei and Kong Xi, who debuted almost at the same time and have similar status, their current commercial performance offers are much lower.
The reason is that Kong Xi is relatively younger, and more young people like Kong Xi!
Therefore, it seems that these veteran singers all have a high status in the industry, rich background, and impeccable singing skills.
But when it comes to commercial value, they cannot be compared with the young people promoted by the companies behind them.
Even if someone is tone-deaf, he or she can still be a mentor on variety shows and comment on talented singers.
It's okay if you have high EQ, but if you have low EQ, you'll keep saying I don't understand your songs, sorry I like so and so more...
Why did they fight with the Feiyang faction before?
The underlying reason is very simple, just two words - popularity!
Even though no one will admit it, that's what's happening.
Comparing yourself with Lin Fei and Song Dao can not only enhance your status, but also help you gain that amazing popularity.
Just like Jiang Ying, even though she is ridiculed by many people, her singing skills, abilities and works are far inferior to those of Lin Fei today.
That’s okay too!
As long as everyone still remembers her.
Even if the price for participating in commercial performances is not as high as Lin Fei's, it is at least at the level of the top-tier celebrities.
But now, even the Feiyang faction is almost defeated.
Apart from the previous song "Red Bean", Lin Fei hasn't released any new songs for a while.
Song Dao’s "Blue and White Porcelain", which shocked the entire music industry and dominated the charts for so long, was easily defeated by the top streamers after the rules were changed.
This time, the counterattack of the "middle-aged parents" has pushed the two songs "Classmate" and "Phoenix" back to the "altar".
But everyone knows that this is just an isolated case.
And even these two songs, in essence, aren’t they so popular that the fans spent money on them?
The most annoying thing now is that the two largest music platforms, Penguin and Yiwang Cloud, have joined hands.
Form an offensive and defensive alliance.
Even if other platforms don’t want to follow suit, the list doesn’t have that much influence.
Besides, who wouldn't follow?
If you can't eat meat, you can drink soup.
If it were just targeting the Feiyang faction, this group of people might be happy to just sit back and watch the fun.
But now it has become a "forest fire", and no matter whether you are a tiger or a squirrel, they treat you the same.
Driven by capital, the entire music industry wants to use this kind of forced reshuffle to wash out these old guys and those disobedient young people from the Feiyang faction.
No one can escape from this "fire".
After the big hits, only the young stars and young actresses who are promoted by big companies will be left...
In this scorched earth filled with their corpses, we absorb the nutrients they left behind and grow happily.
After they spoke out, a large number of singers followed suit and made appeals online.
I hope the major music platforms can give them some living space.
However, there was still no response.
Even though this incident quickly became a hot topic.
Countless people are denouncing it.
However, under the impact of fans who rely on traffic and the water armies of major music platforms who are vested interests, the two sides quarreled.
Ultimately, it failed to have much impact.
What disappointed them even more was that Feiyang Lezhang, who had never been a coward in the past and beat them like he was disciplining his sons... this time no one said a word!
So much so that many people were angry.
Turn the spearhead towards the Feiyang group.
"Aren't you affected?"
"Why are you keeping silent about this matter?"
"Haha, he has fans too. Hasn't he seen Song Dao easily top the charts when he releases a song? As a vested interest, why should he speak out?"
"I thought the Feiyang system would be different, but I didn't expect that all crows are the same!"
“I’m really disappointed…”
However, fans of Feiyang are not pushovers.
Launch a counterattack quickly.
"It was clearly those platforms that were responsible. Why are you targeting us?"
"Is there something wrong with you? Is it wrong to not speak?"
"When Lin Fei was blackmailed by the entire Internet and Song Dao was targeted, you didn't stand up to say a word of justice? Oh, your interests are affected, so we have to speak out? Why?"
"It's really funny. You can blame everything on the Feiyang group, right? I think you are crazy!"
"If Gou Ge releases a song in the future, we will still support him like this. We don't mind spending a few bucks to get it on the charts!"
……
Qin Garden.
Song Dao, who is "visiting" his home for the first time since the renovation, is answering the phone.
It’s Zhou Qian calling.
"Do I really not need to report this to the higher-ups and send a message to those platforms?"
"Sister, there's really no need. You can say they are greedy, but this is indeed a business behavior, and we all know who did it. There's no need. Once my platform goes online, public opinion will naturally turn around."
At this time, Zhou Qian already knew that Song Dao, Yan Yu and others were working overtime to build their own platform.
The eldest sister was very pleased.
Looking forward to it too.
"Okay, I'm just worried that you can't handle it. Public opinion can turn into cyberbullying if it's not handled properly."
Song Dao smiled and said, "It's okay, sister. I'm used to being scolded."
As he spoke, the bastard glanced at his reputation value which was already over 3 billion.
It is still a long way from the 5 billion he needs.
It means the scolding wasn’t harsh enough!
"Hahaha, you have a really good attitude. To be honest, I really admire you now. I can't stand it. By the way, brother, when will the platform be online?"
Zhou Qian was also a little anxious.
On the one hand, there has been a lot of buzz online recently; on the other hand, people are also worried about Song Dao and others.
——She was very angry because her younger brother and sister-in-law were oppressed!
"It's still in the development stage. Yanyan has hired the best software engineers, but it will take until September or October at the earliest to go online for trial operation..."
If it was a simple software, with the capabilities of the experts at Linchuan Group, it would probably take only half a month to develop.
But for a music software, even if there are a lot of ready-made things to learn from, it is not that fast to complete it completely.
Not to mention the various tests that need to be carried out after completion.
The software engineers in Linchuan Group are almost the best in Xia Country.
Yan Yu still thinks it’s too slow!
Repeatedly optimize and continuously integrate the team.
It is said that the speed has been much faster recently.
Zhou Qian sighed: "Okay, in this case, I will wait for your good news!"
Song Dao had just hung up the phone with Zhou Qian, and less than five minutes later, another unfamiliar number suddenly called.
Looking at the series of numbers "7" and the old Beijing number range at the end, he hesitated for a moment, but still picked up the phone.
"Mr. Song, right? I'm Jiang Ying."
It was a bit surprising that Jiang Ying actually called him.
"Hello, Teacher Jiang. I'm Song Dao."
"I specifically asked someone for your number. To be honest, I should call you Mr. Song." Jiang Ying's laughter was hearty.
"Sister, you are too polite. Just call me Song Dao." It is customary not to hit a smiling person, so Song Dao was also quite polite.
"I called you because I want to discuss something with you."
"Oh, you said."
"Me, Shi Yuyan, Hou Tianwei, Zhang Huan, and a dozen other singers want to work with Fei Yang Le Zhang. To be frank, we want to work with you, Mr. Song."
"Uh? Cooperate with me?"
"Yes, it's hard to explain it in a few words over the phone. Can you please give me a chance and treat you to a meal so we can meet and talk?"
"I have an appointment today, is tomorrow okay?"
Song Dao didn't lie. He made an appointment with Kang Peng tonight to meet and have a chat with the guy named "Baozi".
"Sure, sure, tomorrow is fine. I have a club that I'm familiar with. I'll send you the address later. I'll also invite Lin Fei. Do you need me to send a car to pick you up?" Jiang Ying said.
"Don't bother. I have a driver here. Just send me the address."
"Okay, it's settled then. See you tomorrow!"
"Ok, see you tomorrow."
After hanging up the phone, Song Dao was somewhat speechless.
Although he already knew that the world was not a place of fighting and killing, he was still a little surprised that Jiang Ying would call him with a very polite attitude and even humbly ask for cooperation.
Because seeking cooperation is actually seeking peace!
From this we can see that the move by the major music platforms has really driven this group of people crazy!
He called Lin Fei and told her about it.
Lin Fei was also a little surprised and said, "Could it be that they heard some rumors that we want to build a platform?"
Song Dao frowned slightly: "It shouldn't be. Even if someone spreads it online, how many people would believe it? Not to mention that I'm posting songs on the platform obediently?"
Lin Fei said: "Okay, let's meet her. Anyway, there is no deep hatred. I guess she wants to join us for warmth. If she is willing to make concessions, then we can cooperate."
Then he added: "But according to what she said, I feel that on the one hand, our popularity is still relatively high, and they want to stir it up in this way.
At least in the short term, the popularity of this group of people will increase significantly.
What a tragic hero, the platform controlled by capital is forced to join forces with its competitors for warmth.
On the other hand, it is also the main purpose.
It’s the song that I want you more!
Didn’t Mr. Guo say before that the fact that you are Water Strike Three Thousand is basically a confirmed fact over there?
Jiang Ying may be tempted to go the pure quality route.
She doesn’t care whether it’s on the list or not.
Your song cannot be completely suppressed by a mere chart on a music website."
Song Dao agreed with Lin Fei's judgment.
He asked, "I'm going to have dinner with Kang Peng tonight and meet the guy who wants to make animations. Do you want to come with me?"
"I'll forget it. Why don't you ask Yanyan?"
"All right……"
After asking Yan Yu, Song Dao was also politely rejected.
The reason why I asked him to come and see the house today is because Big Sister has been busy with software development recently and has no time to come.
It would not be appropriate to call anyone else, so the man could only let Bai Yue drive and go to the appointment with Kang Peng alone.
……
Kang Peng is a Beijing native and a second-generation star in the entertainment industry.
The resources are still okay.
When inviting Song to dinner, he chose not to go to a restaurant.
Instead, he hired a chef who specialized in this kind of business to work in the shop where his company was located.
This was Song Dao’s first time here.
This shop is quite large, with three floors, covering over a thousand square meters.
It’s almost as big as his house in Qin Yuan.
The interior decoration is not luxurious, but the style is very good, with an antique Chinese style.
Very stylish.
After meeting, I asked and found out that the shop belonged to him.
"I can't compare with you, brother. You make hundreds of millions a year, and you can buy a luxury house in a matter of minutes. If I didn't have a mother who can make money, I would never be able to afford a house like this in my lifetime."
After not seeing each other for a while, Kang Peng looks more mature and more sophisticated than before.
Then he introduced "baozi" to Song Dao.
"Baozi, you got to see him in person this time, right? Song Dao, my classmate and roommate!"
Baozi looks to be about 27 or 28 years old, with an ordinary appearance. He is the kind of person who no one would even glance at if he walked down the street.
He was also dressed a bit sloppily.
Dressed in the style of old Beijing, with a big vest, big shorts and slippers.
When he saw Song Dao, a shy smile appeared on his face.
"Hello, Teacher Song. My name is Bao Xingchen. You can just call me Baozi."
"Hello, hello. You don't have to call me teacher. Just call me by my name. Brother Peng is my roommate. There's no need to be so formal."
"Okay, I'm here, bro."
Kang Peng said, "Brother Dao, you and Baozi stay here and chat for a while. I'll go see how the chef is doing. By the way, what would you like to drink later? It's just the three of us today, no outsiders."
Song Dao said, "Beer will do."
Kang Peng agreed and went out to make arrangements.
It was obvious that Kang Peng attached great importance to today's meal. In such a large company, apart from a very pretty and well-behaved girl at the front desk, there were only a few of them plus the chef and kitchen helpers busy in the kitchen.
Baozi doesn't talk much and seems a bit socially anxious.
Song Dao could feel that the other party was trying hard to find some common ground with him and wanted to make friends with him...his financial sponsor.
The persistence of the Queen Sister also enabled this young man to transform from a popular artist to "capital".
Almost anyone who pays attention to the entertainment industry knows this.
Baozi always wanted to steer the topic towards music, but this was neither his major nor his favorite thing.
So the conversation was a bit dull in the first few minutes.
Song Dao simply brought the topic to animation and asked with a smile: "What style of animation do you like best?"
After saying this, Baozi immediately stopped feeling sleepy.
It was even visible to the naked eye, and there was light in the eyes!
"I like them all! Teacher Song... Oh, brother, let me tell you, whether it's from our country or from foreign countries, there is almost nothing I haven't watched since the day animation was introduced!"
"But if I had to say what I like best, it would probably be the ink-and-wash animations produced by our Xia country in the early days, right?"
"Although it is something from decades ago, the creativity is really amazing, and the art design is super awesome. It's a pity that there are not many art masters left. If I have the chance, I will definitely invite those old masters to come out..."
When talking about animation, Baozi seemed to be possessed by another body and became a different person, talking incessantly.
Song Dao seldom interrupted, and only expressed his views on the animation at some key points.
Baozi didn't quite realize it at first, but when he found that he and Teacher Song were getting along better and better as they talked, he finally came to his senses.
"Hey, Song...Dao, you know animation!"
The feeling of meeting a close friend is simply wonderful!
"Ha ha ha ha……"
At this time, Kang Peng, who had been back for a long time and was standing aside listening, suddenly couldn't help laughing out loud.
Baozi turned his head in confusion: "Boss Kang, what are you laughing at?"
Kang Peng laughed and said, "I'm telling you, Baozi brother, I've been in the same dormitory with Song for four years, but I didn't know he was so talented. You just said he knows animation, and I laughed because you don't know him either. Have you heard of the nickname of the round warrior?"
Baozi scratched his head embarrassedly: "I haven't heard of it."
He is a typical person who is immersed in his own world and doesn't care about what is happening outside.
Popular stars and all kinds of gossip have nothing to do with him.
I got to know Kang Peng because I have been so poor recently!
If it weren’t for the support from my family, I would hardly be able to afford to eat.
Through someone's introduction, I helped out in Kang Peng's drama, earned some pocket money, and learned something at the same time.
Because even his major in college has nothing to do with film, television, or animation.
I study medicine.
Kang Peng smiled and said, "So even though I was quite surprised that my brother had such a profound understanding of animation, I was not surprised at all. When he talked to us now, he was completely tolerant, you know?"
Baozi obviously understood these four words.
I couldn't help but look at Song Dao: "Brother Dao, you are so awesome!"
Although she is a few years older, her pure eyes are almost like those of a college student.
Song Dao glanced at Kang Peng and said, "We are brothers, so stop flattering me."
At this time, Kang Peng was called over by the kitchen helper and told that everything was ready.
The pretty girl sitting at the front desk went to lock the door, and then went to the restaurant with Kang Peng to work.
Song Dao looked at Baozi and said, "I heard from Brother Peng that you want to make your own animated film. How far have you progressed so far?"
Baozi scratched his head and said, "The script is being polished."
Song Dao: “…”
A layman may not understand this and may think that the preliminary work is almost done.
Those who understand will know immediately that this is a chicken feather.
Of course, there is a script.
But no matter from the team building or various preliminary preparations, there is no clue.
"Then, what do you need me to do?" Song Dao asked.
Baozi was a little speechless.
It’s not that he doesn’t know what he wants to do, nor is it that he doesn’t know what Song Dao can do for him.
But I'm embarrassed to say it.
Also, he has mixed feelings at the moment.
Not only is there the excitement of meeting a close friend, but there is also the touch of being understood and recognized by others.
"I've talked to quite a few people before, and they either thought I was fanciful or said, 'Cartoons? For kids?'"
"Or they would ridicule me. You haven't studied animation production or directing, and you want to make a cartoon yourself? You're really audacious."
"Brother, you are the first person who can talk to me for so long and ask me what I need you to do. I..."
Baozi paused for a moment and said, "I have nothing now, except for my desire to make animations, so..."
Song Dao nodded slightly and continued, "So you want me to set up an animation production company and work with me?"
"Can it be like this?" Baozi asked subconsciously, but his eyes were unusually bright.
He actually just wanted to raise a few million in funding, and if that didn't work, he wouldn't mind raising a hundred thousand or a hundred thousand.
Then make the current animation.
He doesn't need to keep a penny from the sale.
As long as he doesn't starve to death and can continue to do it, I will be satisfied.
So this guy just opened his mouth and said he was going to set up an animation production company?
I heard that Teacher Song’s family is from Northeast China. He shouldn’t be like many Beijing locals who...try to fool me and make fun of me, right?
At this time, Kang Peng shouted over there: "Come over and eat, we can chat while we eat!"
Song Dao stood up and patted Baozi's shoulder, whose eyes were a little dull. "Come on, let's talk while we drink."
……
In the restaurant.
The chef and his assistants had left after finishing their dishes.
The pretty girl at the front desk was busy pouring drinks.
Although he said he was going to drink beer, Kang Peng opened two bottles of red wine first.
The same one I brought from Song before.
Baozi felt a little uneasy looking at the table full of seafood and dishes made from various precious ingredients.
He comes from an ordinary family and didn't go to a good university.
I came to Beijing for my ideal, but I haven’t eaten anything really amazing in all these years.
Of course he didn't care.
But even if I haven't eaten much of the food on this table, I know it's very expensive.
Kang Peng is also a person with extremely high emotional intelligence.
I smiled and said to him, "You don't know how busy my brother is. It's hard to invite him once a year, so I have to prepare a meal seriously."
Then he looked at Song Dao and said, "Although Baozi is a few years older than us, he is very simple. What I admire most is the kind of people who are focused. I have to learn from him in this regard.
Although he doesn't seem to have achieved much today, I believe that he is just a dormant dragon in the abyss. One day, he will surely soar into the sky.
I have to take advantage of this opportunity to solidify this favor, so that I won’t end up like you in the future. Not to mention this, even if I invite him to dinner at the most awesome restaurant, I still have to wait in line.”
Song Dao smiled and said, "I think you are right!"
Then he looked at the girl who was about to leave after pouring the wine, and then looked at Kang Peng.
Kang Peng waved his hand: "It's okay, let her do her work, and call her when there's something else."
The little girl smiled sweetly and gently closed the restaurant door.
Song Dao felt that Kang Peng had something going on with the other party, but since he didn't stay to eat together, he wouldn't say much.
Anyway, it’s enough to express your attitude.
With Kang Peng livening up the atmosphere, the three of them toasted each other and soon started chatting animatedly.
Kang Peng and Song Dao still have a lot in common.
Talking about the various experiences and messes he encountered when he transitioned into the film and television industry.
For a moment, he changed the subject of what Song Dao had said to Baozi earlier.
In fact, Kang Peng did it on purpose.
Although he admires Baozi, if he has to talk about closeness, he is definitely closer to Song Dao.
Even though he could see that his brother wanted to help Baozi, he also needed to make Baozi understand that no one's money came from the wind.
To put it bluntly, it means to let the other party know what's going on.
This is actually not redundant at all.
Many times, a friendship that starts from a humble beginning may not always go smoothly to the end.
Between Baozi and Song Dao, it is obvious that Baozi needs it more.
For Song Dao, it doesn't matter.
Don’t say that Fei Yang has no idea of developing into the animation field now. Even if he does, it doesn’t necessarily require you, Baozi.
So Kang Peng deliberately pulled Song Dao aside to talk about his own circle and the music circle that Song Dao was in.
After all, he knows both circles very well.
"Brother, these music platforms are really shit. They changed the rules for being on the charts. If you want to be on the charts in the future, you have to gain fans.
If the singers are scolded later, they will reap the benefits.
But there is no good solution for him.
Even if you are as famous as you are now, if you can't stay on the charts for a long time and don't have other exposure opportunities, it won't work!"
Song Dao nodded.
Baozi can drink just average amount of alcohol.
I drank half a glass of red wine and my face felt a little flushed.
He is also trying hard to integrate into these topics.
Said: "I've seen many singers maintain their exposure through various variety shows. With your level, it shouldn't be difficult to be on those variety shows, right?"
Kang Peng said: "That's not difficult, but you can't always be on variety shows. Even if it's the most authentic music variety show, if you appear too much, people will think you are just making money.
It will also be overexposed.
So for many popular artists, it is okay to appear on variety shows occasionally.
For the top streamers among brothers, it’s best not to go!
Keep it cool.
Under normal circumstances, it is enough as long as you can produce top-notch works at any time.
But the problem now is that even if Dao Ge releases a new song, it can only be listed on the charts with the help of fans or the company paying money out of its own pocket.
It’s been a long time, it’s too painful! ”
Baozi was a little confused and couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect there are so many things going on in your music industry."
Song Daoxiao didn't say much. Everything will be decided after the music platform is launched.
Until then, keep silent and maintain the status quo.
After three rounds of drinking.
Kang Peng probably thought it was about time, so he looked at Song Dao and said, "By the way, I just heard you say that you want to open an animation production company to help Baozi?"
Song Dao smiled and glanced at him, nodded and said, "This is what I think..."
Baozi is a little confused at the moment.
But he still grabbed a towel and wiped his face, trying to keep himself as awake as possible.
"First of all, I admire Baozi's spirit of perseverance. People should have this kind of energy when doing things."
"Secondly, I think there is a lot of room for development in the animation market, especially animations that belong to our country!"
"If you look at the animations that have had particularly high box office sales in recent years, they are almost all from Western countries."
“The values exported are also theirs.”
"There are almost no animations that can truly showcase China's 5,000 years of traditional culture and ideological connotations."
Song Dao used the word "China" here.
In this time and space, he has made his name famous with the song "My Chinese Heart".
Baozi wiped his face vigorously again, his eyes slightly red, and nodded vigorously: "Brother is right! I really want to make an animation that belongs to our Xia country... no, to our China!"
Song Dao said, "If I hadn't met Brother Baozi today, I might have just thought about it, but since we are destined to meet, it's not a bad idea to give it a try."
Baozi was indeed touched.
People say that one can find a soulmate in the mountains and rivers, but he had never had such an experience before.
It seems a bit of an exaggeration to say that "a gentleman will die for his friend."
But at this moment, that's how he really felt.
He opened a bottle of beer and stood up: "Brother, I'm not good at talking, I toast to you!"
As he said this, he picked up the bottle and gulped down the beer. Kang Peng and Song Dao didn't try to stop him. They watched him drink the whole bottle of beer by himself.
……
Twenty minutes later.
After looking at Baozi who had fallen asleep on the sofa in the living room after vomiting, the two men returned to the table to drink.
The girl at the front desk quietly cleaned up the dirty bathroom and came out washing her hands.
Kang Peng waved at her: "The food hasn't been touched yet, come over and eat something together?"
The little girl glanced at Song Dao, smiled and nodded.
Although it was served, it was still mainly serving two people.
Kang Peng smiled and introduced Xia Mengya to Song Dao: "Xia Mengya is a sophomore student at the Film and Television Academy. She is a good seedling."
Xia Mengya looked at Song Dao generously: "Hello, Brother Song, I am one of your little fans."
Song Dao also smiled and nodded, indicating that they were acquaintances.
Kang Peng had many relationships during his four years in college.
If his predecessor, the original owner, was a top-notch bootlicker, then Kang Peng was a typical playboy.
So Song Dao couldn't really tell whether this pretty sophomore girl in front of him was a fish in his pond or they had some other relationship.
But one thing is certain, Kang Peng should like her very much.
Otherwise, given this guy's personality, he would definitely not let her sit at the table.
Sitting at the table is not the main purpose, "getting to know" him is the real intention.
It's just that everyone understands this subtle mentality, and no one will specifically say it out.
Kang Peng quickly turned the topic back to the buns.
"Brother Dao, are you really optimistic about the animation industry?"
Song Dao nodded, then looked at him: "Do you want to do it together?"
Kang Peng immediately shook his head: "Forget it. To be honest, I really admire people like Baozi. I have seen the animations he made. They are very creative and of good quality. But I am a little pessimistic about the future of our domestic animation.
I am not introducing him to you to cheat you, because a good animated film can still make money even if it is sold to an online platform.
I think he has the ability to do that.”
Song Dao hummed, "Yes, I thought so too. It just so happens that I have a lot of related creative ideas and thoughts. I think it's okay to give it a try."
"That's good. No matter what we do, we must not lose money. It's so hard to make money now."
Kang Peng sighed: "In the early years, he was a coal boss, spending a lot of money and producing many classic film and television dramas; later he became an Internet giant, and seeing the profits and influence in this, he also got involved.
It was okay at first, and I still respected creation.
But as time goes by, people gradually start to create traffic stars, focusing on a short, flat and fast approach.
All day long I don't study anything else but how to feed shit to the audience.
CTMD..."
At this point, he couldn't help but curse: "You say that people in the film and television industry don't want to make good things? But under the control of capital, over time, the original intentions and ideals are gone!
Until now, even if I want to turn around, I want to seriously polish the script and find good actors to make something.
On the one hand, I don’t know how to do it anymore; on the other hand, the audience who are used to eating shit don’t buy it anymore…
I feel that it won’t be long before a new and powerful director emerges and crushes these rotten and outdated old guys to pieces!”
Kang Peng was a little drunk at this moment.
Full of complaints.
To be honest, Song Dao heard a lot from it.
Many things are similar in the two time and space.
This is true in the music industry, and the film and television industry as well.
Thinking that I had already written many episodes of the script, I didn't say much.
I just drank with the two of them and listened to Kang Peng complaining.
As the meal was coming to an end, Baozi woke up.
He came over with an embarrassed look on his face and apologized.
Song Dao smiled and said it was okay, took out his cell phone, added each other as friends, and left their contact information.
"Brother Baozi, it should be within the next few days. I will have someone take care of this matter, and then we can talk about it in detail."
"Okay bro!"
At around eight o'clock in the evening, Song Dao and Baozi said goodbye and left together.
Kang Peng and Xia Mengya helped the two people into the car.
Baozi originally wanted to take a taxi back by himself, but Song Dao forcibly pushed him into the car.
Then let Bai Yue follow the navigation and send him back first.
Looking at Baozi who kept looking back and waving at him, he entered the dilapidated old neighborhood.
Until the figure disappears.
Only then did Song let Bai Yue drive away.
Bai Yue, who never gossiped about other people's affairs, finally couldn't help it this time.
"Brother, I see you seem to value this person very much?"
Although he had not been with Song Dao for a long time, Bai Yue had seen many well-dressed important figures.
I have never seen a bun like this before. It gives people a feeling of poverty and desolation at first glance.
And Song Dao seemed to attach great importance to him.
Just now in the car, we sat in the back seat and chatted for more than an hour.
"Haha, you think he doesn't look good?" Song Dao, who was just slightly drunk, asked with a smile.
"I'm not judging people by their appearance, they're just a little weird." Bai Yue defended himself a little embarrassedly after his secrets were revealed.
In fact, it's just judging people by their appearance.
She knew it very well.
"This person is very talented and is very focused on the things he likes. He is like this today, and if he succeeds one day and becomes a billionaire, he may still be like this," said Song Dao.
Bai Yue was a little shocked, feeling that the boss's regard for this man seemed a little too high.
Is it really that powerful?
Bai Yue drove Song Dao home and walked out of the community.
The house the company rented for her was near the residential area.
When Song Dao moves to Qinyuan, he will replace it for her in time.
When Song Dao took the elevator upstairs and opened the door with the fingerprint lock, he was slightly startled.
The lights were on at home and the TV was on.
The air conditioner in the living room was also turned on, and there was a slight coolness in the air.
After changing my shoes and walking into the living room, I saw that the queen was wearing a very sexy dark blue slim skirt.
The hem is uneven.
It perfectly sets off the already round and slender long legs.
It feels like these two legs can kill someone.
He is lying on the sofa now, seemingly asleep.
The moment Song Dao walked over, the eldest sister opened her eyes, with some red bloodshot in them.
"you are back."
Looking at the smile on Yan Yu's face, Song Dao felt a little distressed.
Before, I used to sleep until I woke up naturally every day and never showed such tiredness.
"Why didn't you tell me you were coming so I could come back early."
"I've been in the development team all day today. I'm so tired. I missed you so much when I got home at night, so I changed my clothes and came here!"
Yan Yu curled up her legs to make room for Song Dao. When he sat down, she turned her head and rested it on Song Dao's thighs.
Smelling the scent of the dog, I immediately felt at ease.
Song Dao reached out and gently massaged the acupoints on her head.
He smiled and joked: "I thought you were wearing this to reward those programmers to work faster."
"Hehe, I won't show it to them! You don't know, they are so annoying to me now. They give me a headache just by seeing me."
Yan Yu closed her eyes, enjoying the massage from her man, and said softly, "Although I also know that it is impossible to develop this kind of music software too quickly, I am really anxious and hope it can be launched soon."
"It's okay. I just need to be patient for a while. Jiang Ying called me today..."
"Ah? Her? Why did that old woman call you?"
The eldest sister obviously had her thoughts wandered and opened her eyes instantly.
Song, who was a little tipsy, leaned against the sofa, closed his eyes and rubbed the acupuncture points on her head, saying, "Didn't she post an article on Shuibo to criticize the music platform? I guess she can't stand it anymore."
Yan Yu then closed his eyes in relief and said, "So she called you to make peace?"
That’s why they say it’s comfortable to be with smart people.
This is true for the Queen Sister and the Big Royal Sister as well.
He guessed the other party's motives almost in the blink of an eye.
"But this isn't a bad thing for us. It's said that the Feiyang School has taken over half of the Xiayu music scene, but how many of us are there?"
Yan Yu said softly: "When it comes to connections, it actually has to be Jiang Ying and Shi Yuyan and their group. I was thinking before, when our platform goes online, who will go to their company to discuss cooperation? Now they come to us on their own, which is great.
By the way, isn't she going to invite you and Sister Fei to dinner tomorrow? You can try to find out indirectly where the copyrights of their previous songs are?"
At this moment, Song could clearly feel that Yan Yu was in much better spirits than before.
So he continued to massage the acupoints on her head with one hand, and with the other hand, he slowly slid down along her slender, white neck.
Digging and digging in that bottomless ravine.
"It doesn't matter, actually. She said that the studio of that group of people wants to cooperate with us. It depends on their sincerity. If they are sincere enough, I have plenty of songs that can make them popular again."
Yan Yu's face began to turn a pinkish red, and his eyes became a little blurry.
Perhaps some people were annoyed that the bastard only dug ditches and didn't climb mountains, so they grabbed his hand and moved it to the side.
summer is hot.
But the room was very cool with the air conditioner on.
When the dog man started to pick beans, the big sister instantly got goose bumps all over her body.
But he twisted his body and found the most comfortable position.
The room then grew quiet.
Then she turned slightly to the side and rubbed her cheek gently.
"Honey, I heard Sister Fei say the other day... Is this possible?"
As she spoke, she raised her head slightly and reached out to pull.
next moment.
The dog man opened his eyes instantly.
Take a deep breath.
Then closed again.
“I haven’t washed them yet.”
"I don't mind, I'll kiss you later..."
"do not want!"
……
It turns out.
No matter how simple-minded my sister is.
It’s really quick to learn!
Not to mention the "old driver" like Big Sister who has a solid theoretical foundation.
It's just that I started the fire myself, so it's a bit difficult to put out.
When I was on the verge of death, I suddenly remembered what the dog said to the three of us that night.
——Men who are drunk are not allowed to go to clubs.
So it's very miserable.
When the water flooded Jinshan Mountain, he even picked up his cell phone, trembling, and wanted to seek help.
But he was stopped by the dog man.
The eldest sister felt that she should have fainted in the end.
Lian Song had no recollection of how he carried her to another room.
Anyway, when I woke up the next morning, I felt sore all over.
However, when she went into the bathroom to wash up, she couldn't help but smile at the face in the mirror that was so beautiful that even she was surprised, and the energetic spirit.
Feeling motivated again.
He was wearing a Song Dao shirt, the only piece of clothing he had on.
Slipped into the kitchen and watched the man cooking.
Hug from behind.
"Do you know that this is very dangerous?" Song Dao asked.
"Oh, I don't have to go today!"
"Really?"
"Eh, it's fake, fake!" Yan Yu turned and ran.
I went back to the room and changed into the clothes I had left there.
The two had a warm breakfast together.
In fact, it was already past ten in the morning.
Yan Yu changed into a summer style spring and summer outfit and drove away in Song Dao's car.
She was so tired last night that she didn't want to drive, so she took a taxi.
Song Dao wrote a script at home for the entire afternoon. He only changed his clothes and went out after receiving a call from Lin Fei at around four o'clock.
……
The person driving today is the company's driver.
Not Bai Yue.
In a business car with the tailgate raised.
Lin Fei said, "I heard from Yanyan that your book has become popular. Many people have been discussing it online recently. Today I saw a post specifically about this book online, and someone suspected that you wrote it!"
"Ah? Me?" Song Dao was stunned.
"Oh, Water Strike Three Thousand," Lin Fei responded, "Because there are a lot of high-quality poems in The Legend of the Condor Heroes, and some of them are incomplete, so many people are scolding the author for being too bad.
It is obviously a fictional historical background, but it is written so realistically that people even wrote poems specifically for it.
So some people guessed that this book has such sophisticated writing style and such profound cultural heritage.
The key is that his poetry ability is superb. Could it be that this was written by Shui Ji San Qian under a random pseudonym?
Then I saw that many people shared the same view. ”
As Lin Fei spoke, she opened her phone and found the post on Shuibo for Song Dao.
Song Dao took it and looked at it, and thought, wow, there are more than 10,000 discussions!
You know, the pen name "Jin Gu" is not famous at all.
It seems that Yan Yu’s previous strategy is the martial arts novel that all the big guys are reading.
It really worked.
Come to think of it, Song had never thought that this could be useful before.
I can only say that my two good wives and sisters do more than just chase me around and feed me.
It is true that everyone has their own abilities.
Looking at the various speculations in the comment section, various analyses of the plot, and interpretations of the group characters in the book, Song Dao still feels very proud even though these are not his own things.
Perhaps, this is the power of culture!
"According to this trend, it is very likely to form a top-down trend, mainly because of your book, which is really good!"
Lin Fei said softly, "I'm almost done reading. When will there be a new book?"
Is it okay to urge for the book on the spot?
Song Dao took her hand and played with the fair and slender fingers of the Queen Sister: "It should be soon, right?"
Lin Fei actually just asked casually.
After all, writing is not Teacher Song’s main job.
But I didn't expect to get a positive answer.
A look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face: "Really? What type? Is it still a martial arts story with a historical background?"
Song Dao shook his head: "Mythology."
Lin Fei frowned slightly: "Myth?"
I feel that my own teacher Song is a bit too "wild"!
It seems that my mind is filled with an inexhaustible supply of wonderful ideas all day long.
Before, she thought Teacher Song was a banished immortal from heaven.
He is simply a genius in the field of music.
Whether it is piano or suona, who has ever seen someone of his age who is not only proficient in all of them, but also makes the top performers applaud and want to collaborate with him on the same stage?
So to say that he is an unparalleled genius is not an exaggeration at all.
Now she feels more and more that Teacher Song is a versatile person!
There must be something that she and Yanyan haven’t discovered yet!
There have been many such people in history.
Both in the East and the West.
This kind of person is simply a god that suddenly appeared out of nowhere!
It spans countless fields, some of which have nothing to do with each other.
It seems like there is nothing they don't know.
In the past, she really never thought of Song Dao as that kind of person.
But now, she really felt that way.
Her man, Teacher Song, is just that kind of person!
"Well, based on the traditional myths of our Chinese nation, I have some inspiration and it should be created soon. But I should use another pen name." Song Dao said with a smile.
"Just using fake accounts everywhere, right?" Lin Fei rolled her eyes, but she couldn't hide the love, admiration, and pride in her eyes.
In fact, after the system upgrade, the masterpiece that Song Dao had been longing to redeem was "Dream of Red Mansions"!
There is no need to say how awesome this work is.
In the original time and space of the Song Dynasty, it supported countless people.
But to redeem "Dream of Red Mansions", you need 5 billion reputation!
It’s not like he had never read the book in his previous life, but the problem was that he was still in adolescence when he read it.
I went there just for the chapters like "Jia Baoyu's first experience with love", and to be honest I never read it carefully in its entirety.
I have watched the most classic version of the TV series, but I haven't watched it in its entirety.
Later on, I read many online novels about the Dream of the Red Chamber.
But he could neither complete the script nor restore the book with the super memory blessed by the system.
So I can only accumulate reputation.
But after Kang Peng recommended "Baozi" to him.
He changed his mind again.
Because among the treasures that were refreshed along with "Dream of Red Mansions", there was another book.
"The Investiture of the Gods"!
When he traveled through time, the director Jiaozi, who had a mysterious bond with Baozi, had spent several years making "Nezha 2", which had grossed over 15 billion!
It successfully entered the top five box office records in film history.
In fact, the two animations of "Nezha" are both reinterpretations of the original work and secondary creations.
It seems that it is popular because Nezha’s IP is big enough, but in fact the bigger IP is the monkey.
In his previous life, the vast majority of people who actually watched "Nezha" had never read "Fengshen".
Although the characters in Fengshen have long been deeply rooted in people's hearts, in Song Dao's opinion, in the final analysis, those two movies are still good enough!
Even if you are not very familiar with traditional Chinese mythology, or even don't know the relationships between the characters, you can still get into it quickly.
However, if possible, he still wants to release "Fengshen" first.
The plot of this book is far less exciting than "Journey to the West" and "Dream of Red Mansions", but it contains a lot of "settings"-related things.
It is almost a reorganization and summary of Chinese traditional mythology.
It can play a decisive role in many future layouts.
There is another key point that is very important.
"Investiture of the Gods", it's "cheap"!
It only takes 1 billion reputation to redeem it.
If he was a little hesitant before, now, after communicating with Lin Fei, Song Dao has made a final decision.
Let’s change the title of God first!
Anyway, whether it is animation production or book fermentation, it takes a long time.
Not only will it not affect his layout, but it will also deepen the future film and television foundation.
It’s just that the recent rise in reputation is… a little disappointing.
In fact, it cannot be said to be slow, it is many times faster than when he first debuted.
The key problem is that the things are too expensive!
I still have to think of a way to gain more reputation.
……
When Song Dao and Lin Fei arrived at the club where Jiang Yingfa had located the location, they found it to be a very quiet place.
The car needs to drive into a small courtyard first, and it is impossible to see who the person is from the outside.
As soon as the car parked, Jiang Ying and Shi Yuyan, two veteran divas, appeared at the door.
"Teacher Song, Feifei, welcome!" Jiang Ying said with a smile on her face.
"Teacher Song, Feifei." Shi Yuyan also had a smile on her face, but was a little embarrassed.
If she hadn't spent so much in the first few years after she became famous that she didn't have enough savings to feel safe, Shi Yuyan might have retired from the entertainment industry long ago.
She has poor vision for investment and loses everything she does; she has poor vision for people and is a bit love-sick, so she is often cheated by scumbags; she spends money lavishly and buys whatever she likes.
All her friends knew that she didn't have much money.
So, even though I'm nearly fifty and still single, I still have to open the shop for business.
Song Dao and Lin Fei greeted the two of them very politely, and then went in together.
There weren't many people inside, including Hou Tianwei, Zhang Huan, and a few other second-tier singers from Times Media.
What surprised Song Dao and Lin Fei was that Bi Xuefeng was there too!
Seeing the two people come in, everyone stood up.
"Sister Fei, Teacher Song!"
Everyone is very polite.
Also very enthusiastic.
The reception area of this club is very large.
It can be clearly seen that the C position is empty.
Jiang Ying held Lin Fei's hand, while Shi Yuyan stayed beside Song Dao and led the two to that location.
The others also had smiles on their faces.
Lin Fei and Song Dao were not polite either.
This is not a Hongmen Banquet, this is a banquet to seek peace.
Then Jiang Ying sat next to Lin Fei, Song Dao sat next to Lin Fei, and Shi Yuyan sat next to Song Dao.
After everyone sat down, Hou Tianwei, who was in her early forties, picked up the tea set with elegant manners and skillful movements and poured tea for the two of them.
Song Dao and Lin Fei nodded slightly to express their gratitude.
Jiang Ying is obviously the eldest sister among this group of people.
He said, "Speaking of which, we pure singers are the real family!"
Shi Yuyan took over the conversation and said, "Yes, although Teacher Song and Feifei are very young, their works are really good!"
Two older sisters started the conversation, and everyone else immediately looked in agreement.
It can't be said to be flattery.
They are all professional singers. If they want to praise those excellent works from a professional perspective, even those with social phobia can come up with witty remarks.
The scene quickly became lively.
To Song Dao and Lin Fei, it didn't feel like an in-circle gathering, but more like a "seminar on the works of Song Dao and Shui Ji Sanqian".
This group of people really know who the "big and small kings" are.
No matter how Song Dao became the largest shareholder of Feiyang Music, whether Lin Fei loved him and liked him so much that she was willing to give him away, or whether Song Dao got it by relying on Shui Ji Sanqian’s strength, it doesn’t matter!
What’s important is that this person is not only extremely popular himself, but also enjoys an excellent reputation in the entire entertainment industry.
——They have been black before.
It has even transformed itself into capital!
Is the size of Feuillant's movement not good enough?
Those are just surface!
The people present today knew better than anyone that even when Chen Qingshan and Chen Yuan, two big bosses in the entertainment industry, took action at the same time, they were unable to do anything to this young man.
Instead, it became a stepping stone for his skyrocketing popularity.
A while ago, the new owner of Times Media, Zhang Xia, a henchman of Li Shao who was said to have direct access to the top, wanted to "kill" Sun Meiqi and cut off one of Fei Yang's arms.
Still failed!
Not only did he not gain any benefit, he even had to give away Sun Meiqi's copyright worth nine figures as compensation.
Such Feiyang music would be unsatisfactory even without the terrifying creative ability of Shui Ji San Qian and Song Dao.
He is definitely a big shot in the entertainment industry!
Not to mention that it really exists!
So even though everyone has been commenting on the charts of major music platforms recently, there has been no movement from Feiyang Music.
Who knows what big move he's planning!
The people who know you best are often not your friends.
But opponents and...enemies!
If they had not analyzed it to this point, how could this group of people bow their heads and treat these two young people who had a grudge against each other in such a way?
at this point.
At the next dinner.
It is presented more directly and more nakedly!
People like Jiang Ying and Shi Yuyan did not even ask whether Shui Ji San Qian was Song Dao's pen name.
He also didn't mention what we said on the previous phone call, that we wanted to affiliate our studio with him for collaboration.
All put into the wine.
The first one to take action was Bi Xuefeng.
Song Dao didn't drink today.
He said he was not feeling well and asked for a glass of warm water.
The Queen sister poured a glass of red wine as a "face saver".
As for the others, Jiang Ying and Shi Yuyan drank red wine.
The rest is all white wine.
and.
It is a 150ml wine dispenser.
After everyone took a few sips, Bi Xuefeng stood up and looked at Song Dao.
"Teacher Song, I am sorry for offending you before. I am not smart enough, please don't take it personally. I have always wanted to find an opportunity to make amends and apologize to you. Today, I will take advantage of Sister Ying's presence to express my sincerity first."
As he spoke, he took the wine bottle and filled the three-liang wine dispenser.
Go past the mark until it almost overflows.
Looking at Song Dao, he drank it all in one gulp.
