Chapter 225 Investors
In fact, with East Asian culture, some social conditions and social problems faced by China more than 20 years later are very similar to the neon today, such as high housing prices, various unfinished buildings, negative population growth, serious aging, middle-aged employment crisis, etc. These have already occurred in neon today in the 1990s.
At the same time, the people of both countries learned to lie down.
However, the difference is that the concept of hierarchy is deeply rooted in people's hearts. Neon people have been instilled with hierarchy awareness as early as in childhood. From the current arrangement of seats for dining, it can be seen that Wu Nianzu sat in the upper seat, and then the leaders and leaders in turn, and the employees are very conscious.
Therefore, the employees here are more obedient and willing to be dominated by authority. It is impossible for them to resign as the Chinese 2000s often resign. Many neon people are squeezed like livestock and would rather commit suicide than resign.
This is also the reason why the term "social animal" was born in neon in the 1990s.
Wu Nianzu would not deliberately change anything. Isn’t he a hardworking worker good? What kind of unique preferential treatment is a waste of time.
In the evening, Wu Nianzuzheng and Zhou Huimin called each other.
After hanging up the phone, Wu Nianzu thought to himself.
"Azu, is there anything wrong?"
"I'm going to meet an important person tomorrow and may come back later with you."
Zhou Huimin smiled gently: "It doesn't matter, you can do your business first."
Wu Nianzu hugged her in his arms, reached out to the bottom, bit her ear and said, "It's important~"
Zhou Huimin understood his dirty words, and couldn't help but blush and spat.
The next moment, she felt something was holding her back, and her body couldn't help but feel weak...
This time, Wu Nianzu went to Neon. In addition to inspecting the JSS game company, he also had another purpose to pave the way for his future channels.
This channel not only refers to music, but also to movies.
There is no need to describe the principle that channels are king. If Wu Nianzu wants to make his music albums more sales and make his movies more watchable, he has to do this aspect of the channel earlier.
Although I have a high priority at Sony, this is only limited to Asia. Compared with the big-name singers in Sony's America, my influence is definitely not as good as that.
Therefore, Wu Nianzu plans to invest in advance and invest in connections!
Neon originally had no habit of drinking tea. Since the Tang Dynasty, Chinese tea has spread across the ocean and spread into neon. However, after thousands of years of development and evolution, neon tea ceremony has become very different from that in China.
When entering the Neon Tea Stadium, a female tea teacher in a plain kimono greeted her politely, briefly introduced and guided her. Before entering the tea room, you must follow a certain route to pass through the tea house with a natural landscape area.
The simple stone stone symbolizes the rugged mountain stone paths, the dwarf pine and moss on the ground refer to the lush forest, and the squatting hand washing bowl is associated with the clear mountain springs, and the vicissitudes of the heavy stone lanterns create a tea ceremony atmosphere of "harmony, silence, clearness, secludedness".
The teaguests walk in it, as if they are in a quiet path exposed on the surface of the wind and rain, walking and moving in a different way, giving people the feeling of being in the deep mountains and valleys, ancient and empty, eliminating all distracting thoughts from the mortal world.
The process of neon tea ceremony is very complicated, and tea guests need to wash their hands, rinse their mouths, sit quietly, etc. according to the guidance of the tea master.
However, the whole set of actions of tea masters in choosing tea, choosing water, lighting, boiling water, making tea, and matcha are beautiful, and every move is like a poem and picturesque, which is considered an elegant thing to watch.
Wu Nianzu didn't expect that the American ghost guy he wanted to meet would choose the location here.
But since you come, you will be at ease, and Wu Nianzu is also very patient.
After the tea master served the two of them, Wu Nianzu raised his glass with the ghost man opposite him, and then took a sip:
"Mr. Stringer, I didn't expect you to be so interested in tea culture."
Many ghosts are not used to the red tape that comes with neon tea ceremony, especially when they keep kneeling while drinking tea.
Howard Stringer smiles sincerely:
"The neon tea ceremony culture has a long historical heritage, and the whole process is pleasing to the eye. Whenever I come here, it makes me feel a sense of soul cleaning!"
"The tea ceremony originated in China. If Mr. Stinger is interested, welcome to visit China. I will take you to experience the most authentic tea culture."
"Oh? Is that right? Wu, then we've agreed!"
Stringer is very sincere on the surface, but he is complaining in his heart.
He learned to drink neon tea not for tea, but for neon, and for these Sony executives.
As for China?
Come on, it’s hard enough to learn neon culture now. If he learns Chinese culture, he is really afraid of getting confused.
Wu Nianzu actually knew Stringer’s thoughts.
When you are strong, there will be people who will be sought after in all aspects. When you are weak, it is useless to have a long history and culture. Others will just smile.
However, Wu Nianzu's purpose today is not to promote Chinese culture to Howard Stringer.
Howard Stringer, 1988-1995 President of CBS Broadcasting Group. He joined Sony (America) as president in 1997 and chairman of Sony Film and Television Entertainment in 1998.
Just at the end of this year, he will serve as chairman and CEO of Sony (America), becoming the true nominal authority of Sony (America).
In a few years, he will ascend to the throne of the entire Sony Empire and become the NO.1 of this giant company! The first foreign CEO in Sony's history!
Knowing howard Stringer's future development history, Wu Nianzu naturally wants to make friends early.
While he is still one of the few presidents of Sony (America), Wu Nianzu can still place bets.
Since Sony is a multinational company and America is one of Sony's largest markets, Sony has always had a routine that its management will frequently interact with America and Neon.
This time, Howard Stringer came to Neon to report related work to Sony's senior management. Wu Nianzu also took the opportunity to contact him.
"Dear Wu, I have heard of your name for a long time. It's the first Asian album that broke the record by tens of millions, the most talented man in Asia.
I don’t know when your next record will be, but Sony is looking forward to it!”
Wu Nianzu smiled: "Sony is looking forward to it, Mr. Stringer, are you looking forward to it too?"
Stringer's heart moved, and his face remained enthusiastic: "Of course, whether as a member of Sony or as a purely fan, I'm looking forward to your new work by Wu!"
Stringer answered without any slightest answer, and Wu Nianzu was not in a hurry and continued:
"Mr. Stringer, the album "Meteor Garden" is a bit too slow in America."
Stringer picked up the teacup and took a sip:
"Hey, Wu. You know, Sony is a multinational company that involves the promotion and channel fees of foreign singers, and the process between the process will become very complicated.
Just like tea tasting, you need to have a little patience.”
Wu Nianzu shook his head and said:
"Mr. Stringer, but the efficiency of Neon Sony Music Group is much higher, and our company has received several sales reimbursements."
Sony's music system is also different from other major companies. The global Sony music system is controlled by Sony Music in the United States, and Neon Sony Music Group is independent of this global Sony music system.
Now Wu Nianzu compares the efficiency of these two companies, which actually reveals some accusation.
However, Stinger was very calm and his face remained unchanged: "Wu, if you want to get the payment faster, there is actually a very simple way."
"Oh? What?" Wu Nianzu asked.
Howard Singer crossed his hands together and looked at Wu Nianzu:
“Become our Sony’s own person!”
Then Skinge's tone was raised and he bewitched:
"Look, Wu, your musical talent is so dazzling, why do you need to waste a lot of time and energy on managing the company? This is simply a waste of your talent!
All these things can be handed over to us Sony!
As long as you join Sony, I promise you will enjoy the top contract. We Sony will mobilize the most professional and powerful musicians in the world to make an album for you!”
Wu Nianzu also grinned when he heard this:
“The top contract?
Like Michael Jackson?”
Howard Singer stopped hearing this, and did not answer positively, but said, "Hehe, Wu, your ambition is really great."
Michael Jackson's treatment at Sony is special, and it is even unique in the world.
In 1995, Michael Jackson merged his ATV library (in 1985, Michael Jackson acquired ATV's library) with Sony's publishing library to establish a joint venture Sony/ATV Music Publishing Company, which is a joint venture with half of the shares.
It can be said that he has already asked Sony to work for him.
It is precisely because of this that the relationship between Sony and Michael Jackson has deteriorated and conflicts have continued to break out in recent years. There are even some conspiracy theories, and his future death will be inseparable from the half of the equity he controls.
Without the corresponding protection power, but holding such a large gold mine, the way to die!
Wu Nianzu smiled:
"What is the difference between a person without ambition and a salted fish?
Mr. Stringer, I think you should have some understanding of my background and personality. People like me cannot allow the copyright of their own songs to be left behind by others."
Before Stinger came to meet Wu Nianzu, he naturally had inquired about his detailed information and knew that he owned his own TV station, an entertainment tycoon with his own industry in Hong Kong.
Such heroic characters generally have a strong desire to control themselves, and Stringer just gave it a try. If Wu Nianzu agrees, he will make a profit. If he doesn't agree, he will only maintain the status quo.
Stringer sighed: "That's a pity."
Then Wu Nianzu turned his tone and stared at Stinger with bright eyes:
To be continued...
