169.I am the storm(1/5)
Xu Xiangxiao stood up suddenly.
Under her angry gaze, Secretary Gao neatly arranged the documents on the desktop and put them into his briefcase with a normal expression.
"Actually, I shouldn't tell you about this matter. This is something we are negotiating with the program team. Forget it, I'm respecting you by mentioning it."
His tone of voice was very respectful, but his words were very arrogant.
"Shouldn't tell you", the subtext is "it has nothing to do with you".
It means, "So what if I know? You, Xu Xiangxiao, can't stop it."
Unfortunately, Xu Xiangxiao found that he really couldn't stop it.
Moreover, what he just said contained a strong underlying threat - this private music collection hall is still considered an illegal building.
Logically speaking, illegal buildings should be demolished.
After tidying up his briefcase, Secretary Gao said again:
"In fact, we have already written a plan. This private music collection and JX himself will be included in our system. I believe that by then, we will still be able to reach a happy cooperation."
Xu Xiangxiao stared into his eyes: "You are too arrogant."
"Am I arrogant?" Secretary Gao tilted his head.
There was a very interested expression on his face.
It's been a long time since anyone dared to speak to him like this.
Perhaps among the artists in this world, only Xu Xiangxiao, who has both a celebrity status and personality, dares to scold him in front of him like this.
"There is no way you can bribe JX," Xu Xiangxiao said, "He doesn't care about your conditions at all."
"His reputation and musical talent are unprecedented and unprecedented, but you don't care about such a person."
Secretary Gao chuckled, turned around suddenly, and put his briefcase on the table.
He smoothed out his hair, which was fixed into a perfect shape with styling spray, and then said slowly:
"You just learned the name JX today, but do you know when we learned the name?"
Xu Xiangxiao looked at him warily.
"Four years ago," Secretary Gao said, and repeated, "Four years ago."
Xu Xiangxiao's eyes widened.
Secretary Gao continued:
"You only know about him and what he did today, but we already knew it at that time."
"At that time, we had already started to contact him and began to systematically evaluate his business value."
"After our evaluation at that time, the final domestic audience for his works was only 1.2%, and the payment rate was only 33.6%. Before coming here today, we did another evaluation, and his audience increased slightly, to 2.2%
, increased by exactly 1%.”
"So, here, the price on the intention contract you hold is based on this evaluation."
Xu Xiangxiao frowned.
Secretary Gao smiled slightly and said, "Do you want to ask why it is so low? Have we tampered with the evaluation?"
That's what Xu Xiangxiao thought, but she didn't answer.
But Secretary Gao seemed to be able to see through all her thoughts and smiled again.
"That assessment is purely for our own internal reference, and we have no reason to do anything."
"This result is shocking, and we ourselves are surprised, but the result is like this, and there is nothing we can do about it. The judgment error of our evaluation system in history has not exceeded 5% so far."
"Actually, our evaluation numbers on him have been quite unrestrained. His music style is so groundbreaking, and how many awards he has won abroad. Even if these are all weighted, he can only get this number."
"That's why I negotiate with you like this. The amounts in our intention contract are all scientifically calculated based on the evaluation system. They are not due to my personal grudges or someone's preference for him."
"You know, we are a company. We only want to make money, and we only need to make money. We are not treating him as an ordinary artist. We have given him the highest bid based on his commercial value."
Xu Xiangxiao sneered at his statement.
If you rigidly use how much money you earn to arbitrage JX, you will always get a ridiculous answer.
JX is so respected abroad, how can it be measured by their little money?
Secretary Gao smiled, his eyes unfathomable.
"Are you thinking that if JX is so popular abroad, it's impossible for it not to become popular at home, right?"
He pushed up his glasses and said, "Let me ask you a question. It has been four or five years since JX's activities abroad. How popular is he in China?"
Xu Xiangxiao hesitated.
Secretary Gao asked again: "Let me ask you another question, if today's "Poetic Life" was not broadcast, how many people would know the name JX?"
Xu Xiangxiao said: "That's because he has not been promoted in China..."
Secretary Gao waved his finger in the air and said, "You mentioned the key point, there is no promotion."
"I recommend you to read a book called "The Crowd". It is a great work on communication," Secretary Gao said. "If you read the book, you will understand that the so-called public should be regarded as a
When they come together as a group, they bring together the worst flaws in everyone."
"Brainless, forgetful, gullible. After today's incident, how many viewers will find JX's songs to listen to? How many viewers will actually come over to see this private music collection? How many viewers will remember JX for this reason?
This name?"
"I tell you, there are not many." Secretary Gao said.
"The music styles he created abroad have no market in China, and their audience is only a very small group of young literary and artistic people, who generally have little money."
"Times have changed. In this era, the audience has too many choices. Why do they have to come to listen to your songs?"
"It's all false to say how great JX is and how pioneering he is in music. Without audience payment, his greatness has no foothold and no persuasiveness."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Facing the silent Xu Xiangxiao, Secretary Gao walked around the room with a kingly look.
Every step he takes measures the sales performance and market strength of the domestic music scene.
"In our evaluation system, Li Xingliang's value is five times that of JX. Do you know why there is such a huge difference?"
"Because to the public, JX is just a distant name, but Li Xingliang is a way of life."
"Yes, he may not be worth a penny in terms of music, but how many people check in on his super chat every day? How many people feed him little flowers? How many people watch his variety show activities and new album releases?"
"These are all supported by real money. This is an ecosystem with huge investment that you can't imagine."
"Yes, JX's songs are awesome. Although I don't like listening to them, I admit that his creative ability is indeed awesome. But in my opinion, Li Xingliang is greater than him."
He picked up his briefcase and said, "Miss Xu, believe us, we are a profitable company, and we are willing to serve all artists with all our heart, but the premise is that we can make money."
"Whether an artist is great or not is not decided by a small group of people. We only look at how much money he can make."
At the last moment before he left the room, Xu Xiangxiao took a step forward and said to his back:
"Although I don't understand "The Crowd" or any communication theory, I know the mean regression theorem."
"JX is the greatest musician and creator in history, and this will never change. Sooner or later, he will return to his place."
"If your evaluation system only considers making money, you are totally wrong. You cannot evaluate an existence that is so great that it is beyond the current era!"
Secretary Gao's steps did not stop.
Xu Xiangxiao's words didn't touch him much because he had heard such words too many times.
How many people consider themselves great and think their music is invincible, and come to him crying and kneeling, just to get a little exposure?
Too much.
If everyone is taken seriously, he will not have enough energy in his life.
There are too many talented people in this world, anyone can replace them, and the earth will turn away from anyone.
What is truly irreplaceable is Aihua Company and the industrial machine hidden behind them.
That is the truly great creation.
He walked out of the room meticulously, reached out and took out his mobile phone.
"The Ministry of Justice must speed up its actions and clarify the judicial procedures as soon as possible. It is necessary to ensure that the private music collection no longer appears in the public media."
"We must strengthen the monitoring and management of public opinion, even if all information that should not appear is dealt with."
"Until we complete negotiations with JX, I don't want to find anything about him online!"
Walking out of the office, people around me bowed their heads like wheat in the wind:
"Secretary Gao!"
"Hello Secretary Gao!"
Secretary Gao walked out quickly without any pause. A person next to him followed him and whispered:
"Secretary Gao, why bother coming here in person?"
Secretary Gao glanced at the man and said, "The person we are talking to this time is Xu Xiangxiao. Of course I have to come in person. I still have to respect her."
