Chapter 084 Belonging to my songstress
""Future Songmaster Plan"? Brother, I recognize every word you, but why can't I understand it when I put it together?"
Li Xingyu picked up the plan and flirted, frowned, almost writing the word "confusion" on his face.
When people reach middle age, their ability to accept new things often becomes worse.
In fact, they were just as chasing the trend at the age of fifteen, but they began to love everything tacky at the age of fifteen. Did they get older? No, they just love what they liked at the age of fifteen as always.
Li Xingyu thinks he is very able to accept new things, such as the new iPhone 3G he just bought recently. At this time, there are not many mobile phones with touch screens. Most people are still using folding phones and straight-board phones. In the domestic market, Nokia, Samsung, and Motorola make the world apart.
Although Android touch screen phones have appeared, they have not been accepted by most people yet. Not to mention Pingguo's new product, the second generation iPhone, is a new model with a 3G module version. This phone has not been launched in China. The one in Li Xingyu's hands is that he asked someone to buy parallel goods in Hong Kong.
From his friend, he heard this word that belongs to young people alone: geek.
Yes, he thought he could be considered a mobile phone geek, at least he was ahead of young people in terms of electronic products.
In front of his old friend who once came out to make a living together, Lao Li is not only the successful owner of a music company now, but also a fashionable trendy man. He often has new words that no one can understand.
But facing the plan handed to him by Shi Jia... he didn't know where to start because he didn't understand it at all!
Although Li Xingyu didn't want to be looked down in front of the younger generation, he stared at the black and white words with both eyes, trying to see something different, and he was hard and blushed for a long time, but in the end he could only honestly admit that he couldn't understand.
Shi Jia slapped his forehead. He did not consider the acceptance ability of people in this era. Many of the novel views and ideas above can be considered relatively novel in later generations.
A genius who is half a step beyond the times is a madman who is one step beyond the times. This plan makes Shi Jia the kind of person who is in Li Xingyu's eyes between a madman and a genius.
Shi Jia thought for a moment and decided to explain to Li Xingyu the most basic thing. He turned on the desktop computer on Li Xingyu's desk and plugged in the black USB drive he carried with him.
Taking advantage of the boot time, he said, "This is how I will show you a software first."
software?
Li Xingyu didn't know that Shi Jia is now the vice president of Yuncheng Network Company, and he didn't know that he was the major shareholder of this company. In his eyes, Shi Jia was a young man with musical talent and passion for creation, and perhaps he had some connections in the music circle that he didn't know.
However, he could not connect the word Shijia with software in any case.
He asked in confusion: "I know what software means, what is used on computers, such as the OA system I purchased recently, is really useful according to the employees' reactions. Didn't Mr. Deng say, 'Science and technology are the primary productivity', of course I understand this principle, and computer software can certainly be regarded as technology. But what does this have to do with music, or what does it have to do with our Xuanhuang Music Company?"
The less he understood, he insisted on finding something to talk about so as not to seem too shallow in his knowledge.
In fact, he subconsciously regarded Shi Jia as someone who could be treated equally, and called him brother, but he did not dare to despise Shi Jia in his heart. Li Xingyu felt that as his understanding of Shi Jia gradually deepened, he found that this young man was not simple.
He acts in a meticulous manner and pursues low-key manner. Or he is so sleek and calm that he doesn't look like a passionate young man.
He never mentioned this sentence to Shi Jia... He felt that Shi Jia had no vitality. Yes, he thought that Shi Jia lacked the motivation to do things in the world. Judging from his experience, this young man seemed to have not found his own life goal.
Life goals are big or small. For Li Xingyu, being able to start his own music company is his life goal, and he is also an ideal that he has always pursued and will not give up easily.
And what does Shi Jia want? Once a person has desire, it means having flaws. While having flaws, he is a real person. There is no perfection in this world, let alone perfect people.
Money? Women?
Li Xingyu dares to give as much as these things Shi Jia wants. But this is definitely not what Shi Jia wants.
Li Xingyu's thoughts drifted farther and Shi Jia's voice pulled him back to reality.
Shi Jia pointed to the monitor and said.
"This software is called VOCALOID. The essence of VOCALOID is a vocal synthesizer, which allows users to generate lyrics by inputting lyrics and melody, and complete the entire music production with the loading of accompaniment data. During the production process, no new singers need to provide voice information."
"What's the use of this? Isn't it necessary for people to sing the song?"
Shi Jia shook his head, he could understand Li Xingyu's doubts.
No one would have thought that a virtual star named Hatsune would have such a great influence in the later generations.
Singing opera in Paris; being a guest at MTV awards ceremony in Japan; being a guest at LadyGaga's concert in the United States; and even rumored to sing for the opening ceremony of the Tokyo Olympics - this virtual singer who can only exist on holographic screens is already a superstar in the music field.
If we only estimate the world's influence, no one among Chinese singers can compare with Hatsune.
She can be gentle and cold, quiet and lively, simple and complex, with completely different traits perfectly condensed into the same virtual image, chaotic and harmonious.
Even those who don’t pay attention to music will not know nothing about Hatsune Miku. When the melody of "Shaking the Onion Song" sounds, I’m afraid even the square dance aunt can hum two paragraphs.
Let’s talk about another realistic topic: profit.
By selling copyright and software alone, you will never sell fashion opera concerts. In fact, it supports such a huge and complex business system. It has always been a "fan culture" with a subtle relationship with business.
The copyright belongs to the user. Users can apply for a publication number and issue it publicly. This is the prerequisite for all.
Fan authors from all fields can find their place in the creation of VOCALOID works.
The inspiration of countless creators is conveyed through the voice of the same 2D singer; the image of the same 2D singer brings together the souls of countless creators.
After a VOCALOID song is created, it may be limited to fan communication - such as submitting articles on animation websites, or selling fan CDs without publication numbers; it may also be commercialized - such as publishing on independent musician platforms such as iTunes, or applying for publication numbers and selling them publicly.
Fans that attract enough popularity may also be further commercialized.
The only beneficiaries of commercialization are song creation teams and music distributors, and software developers only make profits in software sales and do not participate in the industrial chain of CD distribution.
If the popularity of a song continues to rise, in addition to the song, many peripheral products such as T-shirts and figures may be derived.
Taking the figure "Hatin Miku Deep Sea Girl Ver." as an example, the publisher needs to obtain the copyright of Hatsuin Miku's image and obtain the copyright of the character of the image from the author of the original song "Deep Sea Girl".
Therefore, the core of profit lies in copyright and symbiotic interests.
This is not a simple business activity, but creates another cultural community independent of reality - fan culture.
In the Chinese country in his previous life, this behavior was like asking for trouble, because few people pay attention to copyright issues, infringement and piracy are rampant, which is in sharp contrast with developed countries in Europe and the United States. Even Japan, a country with a waters, is far inferior to that of...
If you have developed the mentality of being proud of piracy, this is really undesirable. Piracy is the biggest crime to create.
The economic strength of China in this world has grown to two to three times that of Japan. According to economists' predictions, if it can still maintain a growth rate of more than 7%, it can surpass the United States within five years and become the world's number one economic power.
At this time, China is facing the problem of overall economic transformation. Therefore, the country strongly supports the cultural industry and naturally attaches great importance to copyright issues. Copyright is a red line that cannot be crossed, and whoever touches will die.
Trafficking and selling piracy can be sentenced to a minimum of one year in prison. If the amount involved reaches a certain level, the most serious punishment will be even life imprisonment and deprivation of political rights for life.
There is a law to follow, there is a law to follow, the law enforcement will be strict, and violations will be punished!
In this world, it is definitely no longer a piece of empty talk in political books!
At least on the issue of copyright, the official attitude of the Chinese government is exactly like this. Therefore, when Shi Jia is involved in the plagiarism scandal, he will face such great public opinion pressure.
Based on these prerequisites, Shi Jia dared to put forward the overall idea of "The Future Songma Plan".
This is not only a need for the company's development, but also a hidden private product, Hatsune Miku, will be born in the hands of Chinese people, not in the hands of Japanese people.
Shi Jia patiently explained his idea to Li Xingyu, analyzing each key point one by one, and told Lao Li in a daze, and nodding frequently, but I don’t know if I can understand it.
Just as Shi Jia continued to say, Li Xingyu slammed his high-high and said, "Brother, I understand what you mean!"
Shi Jia's face was filled with joy. The middle-aged uncle finally got his mind. It was not in vain that he had explained for so long. Before he could be happy, Li Xingyu said:
"Tell me how much money you need! That's all, I agree!"
Shijia: "..."
He was speechless and did not hope that Li Xingyu could fully accept his ideas. As long as he was able to follow the steps in the plan, there would be no big mistakes.
"The Future Songma Plan" cannot be effective in a short period of time. It requires a little bit of cultivation and guidance of Chinese fan culture. Fortunately, compared with previous lives, the Chinese fan culture is still in good condition, although there is a certain gap compared to Japan.
Shi Jia believes that if Xuanhuang Music Company wants to make a fortune from many music companies, it is far from enough to rely on good songs. He is clear that no matter how productive he is, how can he bring classic songs from his previous life be of little use.
What is the Chinese music circle talking about? Connections and channels. There are so many good songs, not bad for you. Speaking of "Later" and "Conquer" are actually not as good as that deeply touched Chen Xuan. After all, it was sold Shi Jia as a favor, but Shi Jia can't afford to pay back this favor for the time being.
What's more, he is not feeling well and always has a strange feeling after trying to copy songs. Therefore, since the album "Dream Don't Cut" was released, he has never released any new songs.
Li Xingyu urged him several times, and even begged him to play songs and make the company more popular, but Shi Jia was unmoved.
Yuncheng Network is too busy with work, so how can I have time to do this?
At this moment, Shi Jia's cell phone suddenly vibrated violently.
He took out his phone, thinking it was either a matter of Yuncheng Network or a college classmate, because few people knew his mobile phone number. When he saw the text prompt popping out in the center of the screen of the phone, his face changed suddenly.
Shi Jia had set earlier that he would get corresponding error prompts only when Tone had problems. Although he had used his ability to scan many artificial intelligence books and materials into his mind in online libraries, Tone was not very perfect due to the lack of corresponding experimental samples and experience.
At this moment, the phone was displayed with the last whine that Tone had before the crash.
"Tone was attacked by unknown data, severely damaged, and forced to shut down!"
Laboratory reports urgently!
Although I don’t know what happened, the secrets there must not be known to outsiders!
Chapter completed!
