"Sit down in my little brother's office. In a few days, Miaomiao's new album will be released. Let's talk about some things."
The scheduled release date of "Shen Miaomiao" is October 17, Saturday.
On the other side, Lao Huang accepted the invitation with a smile.
"Not today, maybe tomorrow."
"I'll be over at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."
Although Lao Huang is confident, no one knows whether the album will be a big hit before it is officially released.
Even though the songs are popular and the album sales are not good, there are still many people.
After agreeing on the itinerary for tomorrow morning, Lao Huang hung up the phone.
The entertainment industry is so fucking realistic.
Compared to Taiwan, Zhou Jianmin values the mainland more.
Hearing this name, Lao Huang looked startled.
Zhou Jianmin had no intention of hiding his itinerary. He was not a public figure, so it would not be a big deal if others knew his whereabouts.
If he can make some achievements in the mainland market, Warner executives will definitely be impressed.
Not to mention support, it is not impossible to just pack up and leave.
So, as long as he is free, he will answer any phone call.
An unknown number.
Here, Lao Huang had just finished sighing, and over there, before he could put it in his pocket, his cell phone vibrated again.
"Hello, who is this?"
"Mr. Huang, you're welcome."
At this point, the mainland market is enough to beat Taiwan.
Therefore, Zhou Jianmin's attention is focused on mainland China, Taiwan, and Mandarin-popular areas such as Xincheng.
Not only that, Warner headquarters also gave Zhou Jianmin great support.
Sign Shen Miaomiao at all costs!
Even if you can't sign the full contract, you still need to sign a long-term agency contract.
"Hello, I am Zhou Jianmin."
"I really didn't expect that it would be your call."
Vanity Fair is Vanity Fair, people are realistic, and companies are also realistic.
After taking over, he did not set his sights on Xiangjiang.
In Greater China, apart from the directors sent by Warner headquarters, Zhou Jianmin is the well-deserved boss.
Last year, Warner UFO's turnover and market share ranked last among several major record companies.
On the other end of the phone, Zhou Jianmin smiled loudly and got straight to the point.
Lao Huang's opening is skillfully heart-wrenching. According to his wife, this is what he has been talking about in his dreams for the past two days.
Support is also limited.
Many singers have terminated their contracts with Warner.
He has only one main mission in coming to the mainland this time!
Sign Shen Miaomiao!
Although Warner officially acquired UFO Records in 1996, the past two years have not been easy for Warner UFO.
Logically speaking, a new general manager like Zhou Jianmin who has just taken office has to run around outside.
Now, as long as Zhou Jianmin doesn't put forward excessive conditions, Warner headquarters will support him.
For Zhou Jianmin, joining Warner UFO is both an opportunity and a challenge.
"Hello?"
A star is rising!
Shen Miaomiao is a newcomer to the music scene and has just shown signs of becoming popular. Huang doesn't want to give people the impression of being a "big name".
The person in charge of Rolling Stone's Mainland China, who was initially aloof and aloof, now calls himself his 'little brother'.
certainly.
Therefore, after two years of pain, Warner headquarters decided to change its strategy and hired Zhou Jianmin from the Science and Art Era.
The personnel changes in the group have brought irrepressible impact.
Look down.
Especially the mainland.
"Hello, Mr. Zhou."
"I am a bit outspoken, so please bear with me, Mr. Huang."
So, Lao Huang replied in a neither humble nor overbearing tone.
After all, the record market in Taiwan is very mature. Even if he makes achievements, it will be difficult to reflect his personal value.
Mainly because there are some things that are not convenient to talk about on the phone.
Zhou Jianmin, who is preparing to compete in mainland China, will certainly not ignore Shen Miaomiao, who has just debuted.
Not to mention, the songs released by this newcomer are of very high quality, and are even indistinguishable from the two divas on major on-demand charts.
It is impossible for Zhou Jianmin to take the top position of Warner UFO without any support behind him.
Huang's tone was obviously a little surprised. Warner Music's main theaters in Greater China are Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, and South Korea.
However, if Zhou Jianmin stumbles.
Before officially starting his trip to the mainland, Zhou Jianmin made a decision.
Zhou Jianmin?
To outsiders, this name may seem a bit ordinary and not very famous, but to people in the music industry, this name represents a lot of weight.
At least in terms of record sales.
A newcomer actually competed on the same stage with two queens.
In the past, Lao Huang didn't answer many unknown calls, but recently there have been too many unknown calls, and no one knows who is behind the unknown calls.
What about the general manager of Warner Greater China?
I don’t have anything to ask others for at home.
"Mr. Zhou, are you in the mainland?"
It is undisputed that the entertainment industry in Xiangjiang is developed, but after all, Xiangjiang is a Cantonese-speaking area, and due to the language, the audience is limited.
Although the mainland's market potential is huge, it has not yet been fully developed.
Previously, the eight million signing fee was only a tentative offer.
Not to mention anything else, this courage alone is worthy of praise.
"I wonder if Mr. Huang is free recently?"
However, Lao Huang quickly adjusted his mood.
"Yes, I have been in Yanjing these days."
He is the newly appointed general manager of Warner Records.
Even on the inspection list, there are many people of diva level.
The situation of acclimatization is not limited to the Chinese in Britain and the United States.
Sales figures don't lie.
Warner is a global giant, yes, but there are obvious differences between Greater China and the British and American regions, both in terms of language environment and culture.
However, there was one thing he did not say directly.
If Zhou Jianmin can stop the decline of Warner UFO, the subsequent support will definitely not be less, and it will continue to increase.
The sales volume of Mandarin records is higher than that of Cantonese records.
Warner's intention to enter the Greater China market is not a secret among Warner's senior management.
Popular culture from the United Kingdom and the United States may not be popular in Greater China.
Thinking of Xiao Yu's transformation in recent days, Huang couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Zhou Jianmin inspected several candidates who were ready to support him, but found that none of them were as good as newcomer Shen Miaomiao.
If Shen Miaomiao is really willing to sign with Warner, and the signing fee is less than 20 million, Zhou Jianmin will dare to make the decision!
Paying 20 million to sign a new person, even if this new person has a tendency to become popular, if others know about it, they will definitely be amazed at Zhou Jianmin's gambling skills.
After a while, Zhou Jianmin put down the phone in his hand.
He made an appointment with Lao Huang to meet tomorrow night.
Zhou Jianmin is looking forward to tomorrow's meeting.
Whether we can fire the first shot after Warner's rebirth, tomorrow's meeting is crucial! (End of this chapter)
