Text Chapter 237 Joint Conference (Part 2)

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    There are good and bad sounds, but most people understand at least one thing - in the context of the digital age, the Chinese music circle, or the pop music circle around the world, is in big trouble.  More and more people want to become famous, and more and more singers become famous overnight, but the output of good works has not increased. What¡¯s worse is that even from now on, for the survival of the human pop music industry, people all over the world will take off their pants and hurry up.  It will take at least nearly 20 years for these children to be able to pay for music.

    This is a very cruel fact, but Wang Kefan said that he has a way to solve it.

    Nearly 20 hours after the first conference, musicians all over the world were waiting very anxiously.  On the second day of the conference, a large number of foreign musicians came to Tangcheng City specifically to attend the conference.

    In recent years, Wang Kefan¡¯s existence has seriously disrupted the normal order of the foreign music market.  Take Italy as an example. Wang Kefan¡¯s Italian album has a total of 15 songs, and 7 of them are in Chinese. According to the EU, Wang Kefan¡¯s approach is pure dumping. Originally, Wang Kefan¡¯s album could not be allowed in even if it was killed.  , and Wang Kefan has a rigid attitude - do you like to buy or not, and do not like to import.  As a result, the government could not defeat the fans. Under the demonstrations of millions of fans, the Italian government chose to surrender.

    Once the Italian government fell, other governments in the EU also fell.  For a time, when Europeans bought Wang Kefan's album, they had to listen to half of the Chinese songs. As a result, Confucius Institutes are now thriving in Europe.  Those fans are now extremely enthusiastic about learning Chinese in order to understand the meaning of the Chinese lyrics written by Wang Kefan.

    The government hates Wang Kefan, and musicians hate Wang Kefan even more than the government.  It is said that Guo Degang is truly right, only between peers and peers, that is the real hatred.  In the opinion of many singers in Europe, Wang Kefan, a job-stealer, should be pulled out to play harem until he dies.

    "It's hateful to hate, but it's another thing to come here to learn from it."

    Europe, the United States, and China are all now experiencing this kind of market problem.  Thanks to Europeans receiving better education since childhood, otherwise there would not be many fewer musicians committing suicide in recent years than in China.

    Amid countless calls, the second session of the joint conference finally began.

    Speaker: Wang Kefan, tenured professor at Stanford University.

    As the top priority of the conference, Wang Kefan attached great importance to this speech.  Today's speech will undoubtedly be the most important one in his life so far.  In order to maintain 100% energy, he didn't even make out with Guo Yujing last night.  For Wang Kefan, who has never changed his obsessive habits, this fully illustrates the nature of today's event.

    The venue of the conference was changed to the largest conference room in the hotel. There were far fewer participants. Most of the celebrities were missing. Only about thirty people came. Most of the others were managers of major record companies or brokerage companies or directly  Here comes the big boss.

    However, the number of media has increased again, filling the conference room to capacity.

    Wang Kefan stood in front of the podium, with a projection screen hanging behind him that was not much smaller than yesterday.

    After a simple opening remarks, Wang Kefan got straight to the point.

    ¡°My method is very simple, league-based.¡±

    Three Chinese characters were printed on the projection screen, and all the Chinese people present looked puzzled. The foreigners were busy asking the translator what it meant. When the translator said it, they immediately shook their heads.

    ¡°How should I do this?¡± the representative of Chunshi Records was the first to ask, ¡°And it sounds like it¡¯s no different from a talent show!¡±

    Wang Kefan smiled slightly and said: "Indeed, at first glance, it is very similar to the draft process, but in fact it is qualitatively different."

    Wang Kefan clicked the mouse, and the picture on the projection screen behind him changed.

    "Sign up, compete, get rankings and points, and then advance to the next level. The specific competition operation is exactly the same thing. But the details in the middle are completely different from the draft. First of all, our registration has a threshold.  Only those who are qualified to register must be recommended by TV stations and professional organizations. In other words, only professionals or people with professional qualities can register."

    "What about non-professional musicians? Doesn't this cut off the upward path in the music industry?" Gao Xiaosong asked.

    "This involves another design of mine, the competition classification system." The picture behind Wang Kefan changed again, "I divided the competition into four levels: A, B, C and D. Among them, the A league will be held in China, and when the time is right, it can also be held again.  Several competition locations will be selected from them to host the transnational World Super League.

    Specifically, I set the lowest level D league as a competition that can be participated by all people who love music. Of course, the registration qualification requirements remain unchanged, but think about it, nowThere are so many studios in ?, there should be many institutions that can provide this qualification, right?  So as long as there is this level, it is impossible to block the upward path of new singers and grassroots singers.  The D-League can be held in any corner of the world. I plan to first establish an organization specifically to authorize competition qualifications. At least we can hold competitions by paying a certain amount of patent fees in our regional offices.  "

    "Wait, how can you be sure that someone will pay you this fee? Also, how do the people who organize the competition and the singers who participate in the competition make money?" Song Ke raised his hand and asked.

    Wang Kefan replied: "In addition to paying the patent fee, the requirements for holding the competition are that there are at least 1,000 spectators. Teacher Song Ke, think about it, who will usually participate in such a small competition?  ?Professional singers shouldn¡¯t bother to participate, right? So what¡¯s left is that group of newcomers who are as new as ever. Most of them are students, and they are most suitable to participate in this kind of competition. I will definitely set the ticket for the competition at 10 yuan.  At this price, students who are willing to participate in this kind of competition will basically have a group of good classmates. Even if they don¡¯t have classmates, they will have many relatives at home. Everyone spends ten yuan to support their relatives. Most people should not  Will you be reluctant to part with it?"

    Song Ke nodded, and Wang Kefan continued: "As for profit, it's even simpler. For one thousand people, the ticket fee is 10,000 yuan, and we only charge 2,000 yuan in patent fees, of which 1,000 yuan is the bonus for the winner of the competition.  , whoever holds the competition can get a net income of 8,000 yuan."

    ¡°So what about the profits of those players?¡±

    Wang Kefan asked with a smile: "Teacher Song Ke, do you think the players who participate in this level of competition are going for the prize money? Or are they going for fame?"

    The Chinese people in the entire conference room chuckled. After the Chinese people laughed, the foreigners also chuckled a few times in response.

    "The original intention of this level of competition is to select people suitable for singing to participate in professional leagues and make players profitable. It is neither our purpose nor the purpose of most players." Wang Kefan continued to explain, "And in order to allow people to have  A broader upward path, we have no restrictions on the number of games, locations or places for the D-League. As long as we can gather 20 registered players, the game can be held anytime, anywhere."

    Everyone couldn¡¯t help but nod. This arrangement has indeed given the newcomers the maximum opportunity.

    "Let's talk about promotion. The promotion I designed is based on points, and the points come from the votes of the audience. The points are determined by the official rated ticket price of each game. For example, if you want to be promoted from the D-League  To enter the C-League, you need 10,000 career points, which means 100 viewers are willing to vote for you.

    It is assumed that the auditorium of the D-League has 1,000 seats, that is, there are 1,000 spectators, and there are 20 players. Each spectator can only vote for one person, and each person can get 50 votes on average. That is to say, if a  If the player's level is above the average of the participating players, then as long as he participates in 20 games, he can be promoted to the C League.  Oh, by the way, I would like to add that in the fourth-level leagues, players in Leagues A, B, and C can get appearance fees paid by the organizing committee, but to participate in League D, players need to pay the registration fee to the organizing committee, one person per time  100 yuan.  "

    The bosses in the conference room couldn't help but laugh again. The function of the D-League is not only to eliminate those who should be eliminated.

    "Everyone knows that in a competition, a few people who sing particularly well can get a lot of votes, and the ones who sing the worst will realize it after a few games.  If you are not suitable for eating this bowl of rice, you will reduce the chance of tragedy in the future."

    "According to what you say, a ticket only costs ten yuan, so it is easy to cheat and advance!" Gao Xiaosong said.

    Wang Kefan said: "Those who are willing to spend 10,000 yuan to buy themselves into the Third Division League must be people whose families are not short of money. Such people will not have the problem of not having enough to eat when they enter the music industry. On the one hand, they can add more money to us."  Income, why not? As for other players, if there is a local shady case, they can go to other places to compete. The D-level league does not limit the number of games and locations. If a person really has the potential to be a singer, he can go to a few more  The place can still be promoted, so this kind of cheating will not cause the unfairness as imagined."

    ¡°At this moment, the conference room couldn¡¯t help but become quiet.  With a small trick, Wang Kefan easily solved the shady issue that had always been a headache, leaving a group of management personnel in the room dumbfounded.

    Wang Kefan didn't take it seriously and thought to himself: "Those who are promoted to the C-League either have great potential or have a good background. The latter do not need to worry about their livelihood, and the former do not need to worry about their future. So at this time, the goalkeeper  The ticket price must be increased to 100 yuan, and the number of spectators must be at least 2,000. Starting from the C-League.It is a professional league in the true sense. The number, time, and location of the games are all decided by the organizing committee, and the games are directly hosted by the organizing committee.

    My initial intention is to hold 50 C-League games every year in China.  As for the promotion requirements, it is the same as our sports league. Players who rank in the top ten in total points in the entire league will be promoted, and players who rank in the bottom 15 in total points will be demoted.

    Under this competition system, people who cheated in the past will easily be eliminated again. Moreover, the appearance fee we give each player is 200 yuan per game. After 50 games in a round, the appearance fee is 10,000 yuan.  At least there is no need to worry about the survival of individual players.  "

    With such a user-friendly design, people in the conference room were naturally speechless, and Wang Kefan went on to talk about the next level of details.

    "Those who enter the second-tier league are at least as good as ordinary singers today. In this level of league, advertising sponsorship is indispensable, and TV broadcasts are also indispensable. Like the third-tier league, the second-tier league also has annual  50 games, but there is a limit on the number of contestants, that is, each person can only participate in a maximum of 30 games. The promotion rules are that the 10 players with the lowest points are demoted each year, and the 5 highest players are promoted.

    The appearance fee is 200 yuan per person per game, but for every top eight place in a game, you can get additional bonuses.  The number of participants in the competition is also limited to 20 people per game. The ticket price is 200 yuan each, but the auditorium cannot be less than 3,000 seats.  The advantage of this is that if a player has not yet reached an excellent level, his annual income will be similar to that in the C-League. This will also cut off this group of people who can sing but are not good enough to become famous through singing.  Think about it, after all, this is another kind of elimination in disguise.  "

    "Both protect and eliminatebeautiful!"

    The representative of Nanyang Records couldn't help but sigh. Everyone reacted quickly after hearing this.  Indeed, from the D-League to the B-League, Wang Kefan's measures adhere to two principles.

    First, we must never let capable people lose opportunities.  Second, we must not let people who are not suitable for this path feel any illusion.  Let the market make the choice, let the audience be the judge, and let the bonuses be reasonable.

    Wang Kefan was a little surprised that the Singaporean reacted so quickly. He took a special look at the uncle with a shaved head, nodded politely to him, and then continued: "The competition system of the A-League is different from the competition system of the previous three-pole league.  .My idea is to follow the method of professional basketball games and divide the A-League into the regular season and the playoffs. The regular season will determine the top 32 players throughout the year based on points. As for the bottom five, they will be relegated to the B-League.  The playoffs are the PK station, and the audience will still vote. Best of three games, the more voters, the final winner will be determined."

    The extremely creative way to set up the competition made everyone in the conference room start to shine.

    What does PK stand for?  Ratings!

    Especially the national championship that has been won after so many rounds. This is a national championship in the true sense. In terms of gold content, it is much better than the certain national championship hosted by a certain satellite TV!

    Wang Kefan then dropped a bombshell: "Since the competition has not started yet, all singers in the country have zero points in this league now. I will start the competition from the D-League until I win the national championship next year, because  There is really not enough time this year. Therefore, these four levels of leagues will officially be fully operational starting from next year. After other countries begin to determine the annual championship, I will invite the champions of each country to the competition venue according to the region.  A world championship with only PK battles will be held once a year.¡±

    The foreigners in the conference room were going crazy. A white boss shouted: "NK, why do we have to accept your invitation?"

    Wang Kefan said: "Because I have sent people to the United States, Europe, Japan, South Korea and other countries to apply for patents for all patents in this league. If you want to do it alone, you can pay the patent fee first, which is 1 billion US dollars per year."

    "NK, what's the difference between this and robbery?"

    Wang Kefan smiled and said: "Sir, do you think the total annual profit of a league with this design will be less than 1 billion US dollars? TV broadcast fees, advertising sponsorships, and tickets, so many games, and the participation of all people in auditions  To what extent, do you need me to calculate this account for you?"

    The white boss' mouth twitched, and Wang Kefan followed up by saying, "But sir, in fact, I don't intend to sell this patent to you. For the sake of my Global Super League, I decided to live alone. You should know that I  Influence in Europe and the United States, and I also have enough funds to support me to promote this league to the world. Global problems must be solved by global methods. As for the money being made by China, this is just a  By the way, who calls me Chinese?"

    Gao Xiaosong laughed loudly,??: "Boy, are you mocking me for changing my nationality?"

    Wang Kefan said: "If you don't change your nationality, the money won't reach your hands. Anyway, I don't plan to resell the patent to you."

    The whole audience laughed.

    While laughing, Wang Kefan showed the last slide.

    W.M.S.A, the huge logo made everyone present feel trembling.

    In the World Music Super League, only the arrogant Americans always take the lead, but this time, it¡¯s the Chinese.

    Wang Kefan couldn't help but feel proud when he saw everyone's shocked expressions.

    The next thing to do is to deal with the Ministry of Culture.  (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
