Chapter 956 Patience is very important
"Hotmail has completed financing. With the leading market share, they took the lead in introducing free policies to invest money to expand their market share, which shows that they are full of confidence and we should not have a chance."
A+ Venture Capital President Dr. Chen said in an consultation with Song Yaduo immediately: "I don't know how much hotmail is now valued, but the two founders of Silicon Valley legend have a combined net worth of more than 100 million."
“shxt!”
It must be too late, "They are the eldest, who is that second?" Song Ya asked.
"Microsoft has a plain text email client, and hotmail can only be said to be the leader of web mail service providers. The second-ranked market share is called Rocket Mail and Rocketmail. I heard that I am also planning to follow up on hotmail's free strategy."
Dr. Chen replied, "But this parent company with good strength does not need to use venture capital money at all."
“shxt!fxxk!”
It's too late, it's all late, Song Ya straightened her hair, why didn't she expect to play with emails? "It means there is no good opportunity in this industry?"
"Uh, it should be, but it may not be necessary. Think about it, providing each user with 2m free space. According to the current storage and network hardware costs, the money burning speed will be amazing. The larger the number of users, the faster it will burn. Maybe we are more patient and can wait until they dry up..."
Dr. Chen said: "I don't really understand this email address, but I heard that the technical threshold is actually not high. It is not that easy for them to spend money to rule out competitors and then turn to charging to make profits. Of course, it is another matter to be able to grab the time to go public."
"Well, indeed, patience is important."
Song Ya comforted herself and put down the phone, and tried the mail service of rocketmail. The interface was not as familiar as hotmail, but the functions were indeed similar.
Now he can only exercise patience. He opened the email sent by the trio to himself and read it carefully. Apart from the chip technical documents that show off, the rest basically talks about one thing: Boss, don’t be anxious. The money is burned until November. When the new chip voodoo rash that is compatible with 2D capabilities is launched, we will definitely kill everything, and the future will be absolutely bright.
"Year after year, five million and five million, is this the semiconductor industry? These three liars! No wonder they dare not meet!"
Song Yaxin calculated and almost smashed the computer, "No, no, no, don't be angry, be calm and patient."
The left hand tilts the male martial artist's whip fist, and the right hand blocks the female martial artist's whip legs. He fights one against two, and supports the left and right.
"Drink! Ha!"
The young Chinese male martial artist cherished this rare opportunity to play. He was very enthusiastic in front of the camera, shouting loudly, using both fists and feet, and unknowingly did not pay attention to the power of the good tricks, and actually fought with the male protagonist head-on.
"Wtf!? How about it thunder?"
Song Ya's arm hurts and she stopped filming the scene. She pushed the boy in a hurry on the spot. She had been in a bad mood since last night and said, "Movement guidance! You are in charge of yours."
Regardless of the mess in the crew, he just acted like a big shot and went back to the dressing room.
"Then today..." After a while, Zach Snyder followed in, and Song Ya raised the ice bag that Yang had just helped tie on to him, "Then let's forget about it today, you have to rest aplus, I'll find a way to film someone else's scene first..."
"Really!"
Watching Zach Snyder disappear obediently, Mr. Song Ya was humble for a while, and then he wanted to find something for himself, but he couldn't read the exam book, so he called Donovan and Hayden to come in, "How are I talking to the next owner of A+ Records?"
“We, William Morris, have been in contact with almost all the big record companies, and no one doesn’t like you.”
Hayden smiled and said, "Even including EDA and Polykin, really, although there is any conflict between you, they still welcome..."
"I want to listen to the substantive quote, it's already July."
Song Ya interrupted him impatiently, and it was so easy that no one would welcome a trendy superstar. The key was how much price he was willing to pay for it.
"You know the situation of EMI, there are two major record labels in Beimi, Viking Beimi and Congress Records. The most interesting ones are currently Congress Records..." The two agents began to introduce in detail.
Congress Records is headquartered in Los Angeles. It has long been a sight for "memberman" Feige and asked Paikinsley to help poach it, but it was unsuccessful. This time, it is very interested in winning the entire A+ record, including himself and Feige, but in principle they will not allow their sole proprietorship labels, so they will use the industry practice of acquiring 50% of A+ record shares to be included in their own subsidiaries. The specific price has not yet begun to be negotiated.
Polykin's situation is very interesting. Although the enemy is very big, his family has a strong prince A and M record in Los Angeles with Congress Records. Am was once glorious and had super combinations such as Carpenter, Sting and Police Band, Sex Pistol Band. Another Diva, MJ sister, Jenny Jackson, also became famous all the way in his family.
But now it is not possible. After being acquired by PolyGene 500 million in the late 1980s, the singer was out of date. The founder also ran away in 1993. Now there is almost only one empty shell left. "I guess they won't insist on A+ Records becoming a subsidiary." Donovan said.
"Forget Polygin, the management is a mess, and all the good cards are ruined. Its Motown Records just got rid of Boyz iiman."
Song Ya remembered a series of ridiculous operations by his senior executives on def jam records. Although he made him and Daniel profit a lot, he still spared his continued working together, "his family won't consider it."
"The internal chaos in the parent company may be more beneficial to you," Donovan said with a smile.
"Forget it, I don't want to have another similar battle with Sony Columbia Records, it's boring."
Song Ya waved her hand and said. Actually, Sony Columbia Records is really good, but unfortunately, the relationship has become like this after several years...
Then there is bmg. The great princes of bmg in the United States are rca (US Broadcasting Records). A great vassal of rca is Alista Records in Atlanta. Babyface's Laface Records and Bad Boys Records who brag about dad are all under Alista Records.
Another great vassal of RCA is Jive Records. R&B singers such as Kelly and Alya are all signed in his Chicago branch. Quincy Jones, who is also in Chicago, has a great influence on the company.
"Bmg is in good momentum now, and they are actually the least active. My negotiations with them are still in the early stages, which is a strong contrast with their full support for Laface Records chasing the boyz iiman group." Donovan said.
"I understand, I don't want me to have a lot of people who have harmed the past."
Song Ya laughed at herself, and it may even include babyface. It is not necessarily a good thing to friendship from a friend to a colleague. "By the way, how are boyz iiman talking to various record companies?"
Hayden smiled, "The most popular one insists on learning mc hammer and you own a record company that you own, and only signs a record distribution contract with the distribution company. The least popular one objected to sole proprietorship, and wants to take advantage of this opportunity to make a high contract signing money to make a profit. The one who misses home only has one condition, and the new company location should be in his hometown of Philadelphia. The one who has no desires has already taken advantage of this shortage to return to Philadelphia to invest in a barber shop and beauty salon... Each of the four has an idea."
They are all fucking talent, Song Ya rolled her eyes and continued to ask.
Warner's Atlantic Records has always had a good relationship with it. It contains Steven, a black executive whom he had come into contact with when he first arrived in New York. A+ Records has long rented his recording studio for its New York singers. His family is traditionally the friendliest for black singers. Even Warner does not allow its sole proprietorship labels to be troublesome, but it seems that it can be discussed.
Not to mention Universal, the big boss Bronfman Jr., David Geffen, who retained some influence after Geffen Records was acquired by Universal's MCA Records, Doug Morris, the president of Universal Records, and Ron Meyer, the president of Universal Pictures, have all dealt with themselves, and their relationships are different, but they are all good overall and have never had any conflicts.
"Brownfmann is also the most relaxed and best-talking entertainment tycoon. After taking the Blade Warrior, you can take the opportunity to communicate with him more. He likes talented people to flatter him." Hayden said.
"No problem, I'm good at this." Song Ya nodded.
Speaking of which, Sugnett's Death Prison Records were also released through Universal, but there was an interscope record in the middle.
But it doesn't matter. No one likes the unruly Sognet. He is very marginal in the entire global system. It is only when everyone sees that 2pac and Snoop Dog can make money.
"Actually, David Geffen hinted to me that you can merge A+ records with DreamWorks records, half and half," Donovan said.
"Then I'm losing a lot? The three giants' DreamWorks record is now the only outdated George Michael who can play. In total, there are not even a few new albums released, and the platinum record is still zero eggs."
David Geffen thought beautifully.
Finally, it was Orwitz's suggestion last time. Disney integrated its record companies into the seventh largest publisher and then signed them on its own.
"That's even more complicated. Disney Emperor Eisner now opposes as long as Ovitz supports it. It's enough for them to do this. Mr. Roy Disney told me that it won't be clear until the end of the year."
Donovan said: "And the new seventh largest record distributor will inevitably be strangled by the sixth joint forces, and you will be affected, aplus."
"Well, don't worry, just like the slow-tempered Tribeard of DTS, it's slow and slow. When the end, others will be anxious first. I still have time, so I can continue to wait."
Chapter completed!
