177. It’s all in JX’s calculations(3/4)
"I'm asking, why does he want to cultivate more outstanding musical talents?" Qin Yunchu asked, "He has already become famous, and he doesn't know how much money he has made. Does the domestic music environment have a good quality? What does it have to do with him?"
"Why would he do such a thankless job?"
Qin Yunchu finally asked this question.
She had wanted to ask for a long time.
Eight hundred years ago, she wanted to ask why Chen Ya came to their company to work as a clerk.
He is already so awesome, why would he do such a thing?
Is it to get closer to myself?
Wang Feng said in a deep voice: "I don't know why he did these things, but I know that he must have spent a lot of money to open these schools."
Daolang nodded: "Yes, our schools don't make any money at all, they are all funded by subsidies.
These children's families are poor, and their parents don't want them to engage in music, so we got them to school because we promised to give them living allowances. Otherwise, they would all be helping the family with farm work now."
Qin Yunchu crossed his arms, pursed his lips, and said:
"I just want to know why he would rather give money like this and do something specifically?"
Everyone was silent for a while.
yes.
Normal people would never do this.
While everyone was thinking, Cui Dayou suddenly said:
"If we don't speculate on his intentions and only consider the results, they have 600 graduates from these 20 schools.
If everyone is at Zhou Qian's level, spread across all areas of our current music scene, it can improve the overall level of the Chinese music scene by a big margin... no, even two big margins."
After Cui Dayou finished speaking, Xu Xiangxiao nodded and said:
"I understand. His purpose is to raise the overall level of the Chinese music scene by a big margin."
Cui Dayou smiled at Xu Xiangxiao and nodded: "Your way of thinking is great and very consistent with Occam's razor."
"Occam's razor principle" simply means "don't add entities unless necessary". Making complex problems simpler is often closer to the truth.
Putting this matter into perspective, jx's school-running behavior will ultimately affect the ability to enhance the strength of the Chinese music scene... Then his original intention of running the school is to enhance the strength of the Chinese-language music scene.
"This is completely beyond the scope of what a musician can do." Cui Dayou said, "This is already fundamentally changing the entire Chinese music scene."
Cui Dayou looked at the snow-capped mountains on the screen with a faint look in his eyes.
Known as the "godfather of the Chinese music scene", he knows one thing best:
Change is always the hardest.
It is difficult to change one person, let alone change the world.
Even if he heard the word "godfather" countless times, he knew that he was just following the trend and was far from reaching the point of change.
Aihua Company has invested a large amount of money, thinking that it has changed the music scene, but in fact, it is just draining the accumulation of the music scene.
That's just following the trend, and it's not a change.
Only jx's behavior can be called a change.
This is reverse entropy. It is an action that goes against nature.
The more you stand in a high position, the more you understand the difficulty of this matter.
Thousands of miles apart, Cui Dayoujue felt the pride of JX.
Without saying a word, his determination was felt just by what he did.
Taylor, standing behind everyone, listened silently to everyone's discussion.
She didn't understand what they were struggling with, but she knew they were talking about JX.
Seeing that these people were shocked by what JX did, she was inexplicably excited.
Gao Xiaobai said: "I think this thing is just a beautiful thing in imagination. JX's original intention is good, but he may be doing bad things."
He shook his fan, tilted his head and said:
"Look, our country also has a professional music conservatory. Even if it has trained a large number of outstanding talents, it is still competing with itself for jobs. In the current market situation, even if there are 600 Zhou Qian, can this market be sustained?"
Qin Yunchu frowned and said: "Teacher Gao, if it were the previous model of Aihua Company, it would be useless no matter how many Zhou Qian came, but now the general environment has begun to change..."
As she was talking, suddenly an idea flashed in her mind and she shouted:
"I understand!"
She said quickly:
"After Gu Yuqing acquired Aihua, didn't he announce that he would reform Aihua? She said that the reform would be a little lower, which is to change the concept from a traffic-oriented approach to a creation-oriented approach.
"Changing to such a model requires a large number of talents as support, and he has already secretly prepared the talents and is waiting to deliver them after Aihua Company changes ownership!"
Qin Yunchu's eyes were shining.
She totally gets it.
The reform measures announced by Gu Yuqing are to separate the idol and traffic star sections and establish a new company specifically to distinguish them from creative musicians.
At the same time, it has transformed into giving priority to creation, using music quality to drive idols, and then using idols to boost music quality, forming a virtuous double cycle.
This reform measure looks beautiful, but after she announced this reform measure, Aihua's stock price fell and has reached a historical low.
Just after taking over the company, the stock price dropped so sharply, which was a very dangerous thing for the new owner of Aihua.
The reason why the market is not interested in her reform measures is not because investors are not smart. On the contrary, it is precisely because capital is too smart.
I prefer creative music and truly pursue the quality of the music itself. This is not something you can just talk about.
It requires a lot of time, money, and energy investment to cultivate and develop in order to slowly improve the quality of music.
In this way, it is determined that in the early stage of reform, it will inevitably be a loss-making business, and Aihua's profitability will drop to a freezing point.
This is why capital is fleeing.
Aihua's share price fell so seriously due to the competition.
The difficulty of Gu Yuqing’s reform measures lies not in anything else but in “people”.
Everything else is easy to say, talent is rare. It takes a lot of time to cultivate an excellent musician.
Five years, ten years, and often half a generation is needed to cultivate enough outstanding talents.
The music industry is also an industry that is extremely hungry for talent.
Regardless of just the few standing at the top, behind every shining star there are a large number of support staff.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Lyrics, composition, arrangement, harmony, post-production, music video... these links are all very important.
Without the corresponding talents, transformation is just nonsense.
Over the years, Aihua's domineering management methods have hollowed out the foundation of the Chinese music scene.
For a long time, truly outstanding musicians have failed to stand out, popular stars without real talent have occupied high positions, and bad money has driven out good money over the years, which has made it difficult for the entire market environment to recover.
But the good news is: it takes five years to cultivate musicians, and jx already started cultivating them five years ago!
The 20 music schools in jx suddenly sent 600 professional music talents to the society in one breath. What does this mean?
600 people may not seem like a lot, but it is definitely not a lot when spread across various industries.
But if it’s 600 Zhou Qian level, then that’s 600 Gundams!
This is a great help to Gu Yuqing's reform plan, just like giving him a pillow if he falls asleep!
Thinking of this, Qin Yunchu felt horrified in his heart.
"JX has already planned everything."
"Aihua's reputation exploded and its stock price plummeted. Later, it was acquired by the Gu family, Yingzi was taken away, Li Xingliang was banned, and jx-Langlang Chuanshi 20th Special was re-released..."
"Within one day, all the events revolved around the Music Private Collection Hall, and they happened with great vigor, and the whole world knew about it."
"Because he has already calculated everything."
"From the moment we stepped into this private music collection, every step was in his calculation."
"The person we are connecting to on the phone has also been arranged by him."
"He knows that the phone call we make from here will quickly trigger a reaction from the foreign music scene and will spread to everyone."
"He knew that our call to Langlang would cause an uproar in the classical circle and cause an earthquake in the music world."
"He deliberately arranged these phone connections so that we could maximize the sound of the music collection and attract people's attention."
"With all eyes on this, he's delivering the fatal blow."
After Qin Yunchu finished speaking, the people beside him didn't speak for a long time.
This idea is too scary, but if you think about it carefully, it is too reasonable.
Otherwise, how can we explain so many coincidences that happened today?
To be continued...
