Chapter 1544 You can do it yourself
Qin Feng was very depressed.
This Howard Stringer has been talking to himself about his Daqin car. Qin Feng wanted to bring the topic back to the record several times, but he always diverted him away.
This made Qin Feng very depressed.
Finally, after Qin Feng sat for thirty minutes, he couldn't bear it anymore.
"President Stringer, I am here to talk to you about the copyright issue of online sales of digital music. I am not talking about cars. And Sony does not produce cars." Qin Feng had to be very serious.
interrupted Howard Stringer's discussion about his Daqin car.
"I know you want to talk about online digital music rights. Before coming to Sony, you went to Warner, BMG, EMI, and Universal. And they all rejected you." Howard Stringer said with a smile.
, "So why did we agree? Especially, we can build our own online sales system."
Qin Feng was speechless. This was what he was worried about.
Sony has its own Walkman and can launch such a system. Why cooperate with Sony and let itself make money?
"Excuse me!" Qin Feng stood up.
Howard Stringer smiled and asked his secretary to send Qin Feng away.
For Qin Feng, he is only interested in Qin Feng's cars. As for the online digital music copyright, Sony can do it by itself.
There is no need to cooperate with Qin Feng at all.
Because of this, if he doesn't talk about cars with Qin Feng, what else can he talk about?
Not staying behind closed doors is already giving Qin Feng face.
After Qin Feng left, an old man in his sixties came over.
"That person just now was Qin Feng?" the old man asked.
Howard Stringer stood up quickly with a respectful look on his face.
"Yes, Mr. Dahe, the one who just arrived is Qin Feng." Howard Stringer said respectfully, "He came to us to discuss online digital copyright. But I rejected him. We can do it ourselves."
The old man is none other than Norio Ohga, who is known as the father of CD and is also the president of Sony America.
Howard Stringer is the president of Sony Records. Norio Ohga is the president of Sony America.
Responsible for all Sony affairs in the United States.
Of course, he is also a Sony legend.
Norio Ohga is known as Sony’s designer. Because of Norio Ohga’s leadership, Sony has grown from a local company based in Japan to a first-class international company.
"Then have you done it?" Norio Ohga asked.
Howard Stringer shook his head.
"Although the MP3 format is already popular on computers, most of them are pirated. If we do it ourselves, it will easily make piracy popular. What's more, this kind of selling a song separately is harmful to singers and record companies.
Including the interests of those record stores. So, we didn’t do it. Not only did we not do it, but the other four major record companies also rejected it,” Howard Stringer said.
Norio Ohga nodded slowly.
However, he felt that perhaps this matter should be more radical.
After all, times are developing. The Internet era has entered people's lives.
Nowadays, more and more people spend more time on the Internet.
Perhaps, online digital music has a future.
However, thinking of the interests involved in this aspect, Norio Ohga did not say anything more.
After all, as the president of a company, you need to consider the interests of all aspects.
The sale of online digital music may bring some additional income. However, if it infringes on existing interest groups, it may cause big trouble. Therefore, this matter must be cautious.
At this moment, Qin Feng went back helplessly.
"What's wrong? Isn't it going well?" Lisa saw Qin Feng's dejected expression and poured Qin Feng a cup of coffee.
"We were rejected by the five major record companies." Qin Feng said helplessly, "They had no such plan at all."
"I guessed it too." Lisa shrugged and gave Qin Feng a hug, "After all, they can't give up their vested interests. And digital music will infringe on their current interests. As for the future of digital music, who can see
It’s accurate!”
"But if there is no digital music copyright, then developing iPod will be very troublesome." Qin Feng said with a frown.
"It's okay. I've searched in the past few days and found that almost all songs are in MP3 format and can be downloaded on the Internet. At that time, we will sell the hardware. If users download MP3 by themselves, that will be their business." Li
Sa said, "These record companies are short-sighted and will regret it later."
"I'm afraid this will involve legal issues." Qin Feng frowned.
"No. I have consulted. As long as our company does not give any guidance or implicit suggestions to users in this regard, then the users' behavior is their own behavior and has nothing to do with the company. The record company has no intention of suing us.
Use it." Lisa said, "We only sell software."
Qin Feng curled his lips. This is not impossible, but it would be reduced to a simple hardware company.
That's not what Qin Feng wants, nor is it what Steve Jobs wants.
"By the way, aren't you a piano master, and you can write music? You can write a few songs, then sign some singers, make them famous, and let them sell on the Internet. That may promote the reform of these record companies.
" Lisa said.
Qin Feng's eyes lit up.
This is a way.
The five major record companies look down on this profit and their own ideas. However, they can do it themselves. At some point, they will regret it.
Especially since I can compose music. I can't let this talent go to waste.
Thinking about it this way, Qin Feng felt that there seemed to be a way.
"However, that still requires Steve Jobs to get the iPod out in advance." Qin Feng said.
"Soon." Lisa said, "I heard that the laboratory has already produced a model. It is undergoing more artistic processing to make it more artistic and practical. Maybe it will be out soon. Otherwise,
My dad wouldn’t let us design this either.”
"Then I have to speed up the pace." Qin Feng regained his confidence at this moment, "When the time comes, I want to see if these record companies will regret it."
"Hehe, they will definitely regret rejecting the advice of a piano master." Lisa said with a smile.
Didn't these record companies notice Qin Feng's identity?
Naturally, I noticed it. However, this is still not the reason why they will change their existing interest model.
The reason for changes in later generations is because of the general trend. After entering the 21st century, everything is different. This forces the five major record companies to change and adapt to the situation. But now, it is still early.
Three years is not a long time, but it is a three years of rapid progress.
Now, they will not change.
