Chapter 286 A blue ocean of domestic music market(1/2)
Just when sisters Cao Lili and Qiao Simei, and their two brothers, were chatting and reminiscing in their hotel room.
In the large private room of the hotel restaurant, Qiao Zuwang finally finished talking about his depression, and then he drank too much Maotai and couldn't get drunk anymore.
I don’t know whether he was really drunk or pretending to be drunk. Anyway, he was unconscious.
In response, Cao Zhiqiang, who didn't drink much, graciously opened a three-person room and found a male waiter to help Qiao Zuwang, who was unconscious, go to the three-person room to lie down and rest.
The purpose of opening a triple room is obviously to let Qiao Zuwang, Qiao Yicheng and Qiao Erqiang stay in that room for one night, so that they can all experience the treatment of a super luxury hotel.
After Qiao Zuwang was helped away by the waiter and only Chen Jiabang, his wife and Cao Zhiqiang were left at the wine table, Mrs. Chen couldn't help but said to Cao Zhiqiang:
"Zhiqiang, I think this Qiao Zuwang is a typical mercenary villain. Is it appropriate for you to deliberately show off your wealth in front of him and treat him so kindly? What if he takes advantage of you and opens his mouth?"
Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly: "Sister-in-law, I know better than you who Qiao Zuwang is. This person is indeed a villain, but he is a smart villain. He knows how much food he can eat, and what things he can touch.
You can't touch things yourself.
If we come from the capital, if we hide and tuck in and dig around, it will make him think too much, thinking that we are afraid of something.
However, we do everything openly and clearly, telling him our status, position and work situation, and even exaggerate and brag a little bit, which can actually scare the other person.
Although I did not talk about my own situation, Secretary Chen's current position as the vice president of the Beijing Publishing House and the secretary to the director of a state-owned enterprise directly under the ministry was enough to intimidate him.
Even though he was in Nanjing, it seemed as if the sky was high and the emperor was far away, but facing a capital official like Brother Chen, he was still not enough.
The fact that we are pleasant to him now just shows that we are decent people.
But once he gets greedy and annoys us, is it not easy to deal with him?
If nothing else, it’s not difficult to find a way to put people like Qiao Zuwang in jail, right?
Once Qiao Zuwang goes to jail and we want to adopt his child, do we still need to ask Qiao Zuwang what he means?
Let's put it this way, once Qiao Zuwang is caught and temporarily loses his guardianship qualification, his children will definitely be taken care of by Qiao Zuwang's sister-in-law.
As for Qiao Zuwang's sister-in-law, I know more or less that she is also a person who is blind to money.
As long as you give her some money, it's not that difficult to adopt Qiao Simei.
Of course, we won’t do that unless we have to, but that doesn’t mean we can’t do it, right, Brother Chen?”
Upon hearing Cao Zhiqiang's question, Chen Jiabang subconsciously looked at the door of the private room, then turned his head and whispered: "If it is to frame a small person like Qiao Zuwang, of course I can do it. I also have some friends here. As long as you pay enough, it is not difficult.
manage."
"Stop talking about this." Mrs. Chen quickly lowered her voice, "It's so unpleasant. It sounds like we are bad people."
Cao Zhiqiang smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, I am just making an analogy. In fact, Qiao Zuwang is a smart man. He must know whether we have this ability from our appearance and what we said at the dinner table.
As the saying goes, the people do not fight against the officials. Although Brother Chen is not an official in the true sense, he is almost there.
Qiao Zuwang thought he had figured out the details of Brother Chen, so he would definitely consider whether he could be greedy for Brother Chen.
To take a step back, even if Brother Chen doesn't deal with Qiao Zuwang, as long as you and your wife choose to give up the adoption of Qiao Simei, won't Qiao Zuwang be in vain?
Once you don't adopt Qiao Simei, Qiao Simei will continue to live there, and Qiao Zuwang will have to spend money to raise her, which will put a lot of pressure on her.
Not only that, without you, Qiao Zuwang will also lose the opportunity to climb your high branches, which he will definitely not be happy about.
Moreover, he must also know that people like you must really hate people who care about everything.
That's why he simply didn't want the money, and pretended to be reluctant to part with him, caring about his family very much, but had to reluctantly give up his love for the sake of a better life for his children.
He definitely hopes to use this method to make us like him and think that he is not the kind of greedy and careless person.
Only in this way will we be able to help him if he asks us for something in the future.
This is called taking a long shot to catch the big fish.”
"Oh, that's right." Mrs. Chen nodded, "It seems that Qiao Zuwang still has some brains."
"Qiao Zuwang is a traditional businessman." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "Businesspeople always have to be a little smart."
Mrs. Chen nodded: "Then what do you think we should do next?"
"What else can we do?" Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile, "Hasn't he already agreed? Then go and go through the formalities with him tomorrow. As long as both parties agree, I believe it will be done soon."
"That's fine." Mrs. Chen agreed, "Then let's withdraw now, go back and rest early, and go through the formalities early tomorrow morning?"
As soon as Mrs. Chen said this, everyone agreed, so they left the restaurant and went back to their respective rooms.
At this time, Cao Zhiqiang didn't know that Qiao Simei had already sold almost all his details to his brother, and thought that no one else knew about his situation.
As a result, Cao Zhiqiang did not go back to his private room first, but went to Cao Lili and Qiao Simei's room.
This was because he knew that Qiao Yicheng and Qiao Erqiang had followed Cao Lili and Qiao Simei and went back to their room to catch up on old times, so if he wanted to notify Qiao Yicheng and Qiao Erqiang, of course he had to come here.
"Brother, are you here?" After seeing Cao Zhiqiang arriving, Qiao Simei was the first to rush over and seemed to be very attached to Cao Zhiqiang.
"Yeah." Cao Zhiqiang smiled and touched Qiao Simei's head, then looked at Qiao Yicheng and Qiao Erqiang who stood up together.
"One percent, two strong." Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile, "I came here to tell you that your father was drunk and unconscious, so President Chen assigned a three-person room and temporarily let your father rest there.
It’s getting late now, and since your father is drunk, why don’t you all stay here together for one night, what do you think?”
"Really?" Qiao Erqiang couldn't help but said, "Can you really stay here for one night?"
"Really." Cao Zhiqiang nodded.
"That's great!" Qiao Erqiang couldn't help but tugged on Qiao Yicheng's arm, "Brother, we can stay here for one night, that's great!"
Qiao Yicheng smiled awkwardly, and then nodded solemnly to Cao Zhiqiang: "Thank you, Brother Cao."
"Why are you thanking me?" Cao Zhiqiang waved his hand, "It's all President Chen's work. I'm just here to eat and drink."
After speaking, Cao Zhiqiang told Qiao Yicheng and Qiao Erqiang the room number where Qiao Zuwang was resting, and asked them to go to the service desk to find the waiter and ask the waiter to take them to the room to rest.
"Okay, my mission is completed, I will go back to the house to rest." After saying this, Cao Zhiqiang said.
"As for you, it's nice to meet again after a long absence, but don't talk here for too long.
Especially Lili and Simei, you are still young and cannot stay up late.
It is now 8:12 pm.
Let's do this, you can talk until 9:30 in the evening. By 9:30, Lili and Simei must go to bed and rest.
Don't sleep too late, otherwise it will affect your growth and development.
Anyway, tomorrow is Sunday, and you will have plenty of time to catch up on old times together during the day tomorrow, right?"
"I know, brother." Cao Lili smiled and nodded, "I will."
"I can do it, Brother Cao." Qiao Simei said with a smile, "I will definitely listen to you!"
Cao Zhiqiang touched Qiao Simei's head again, nodded to Qiao Yicheng and Qiao Erqiang, and then left the room and went back to his room to rest.
After returning to his single suite, Cao Zhiqiang first changed into a set of pajamas, and then went to fill the bathtub with water.
Taking advantage of the break, he took out his notebook and ballpoint pen and continued his plagiarism, no, his creative career.
This time, there are no martial arts novels, popular science novels or other emotional novels in the little notebook, but some popular songs.
Because Cao Zhiqiang has decided that from now on his main business will be singing and recording.
This does not mean that Cao Zhiqiang has given up publishing books, but that in the current domestic market, martial arts novels are still banned. It is not possible to forcefully publish martial arts novels, but that can only be done secretly and it is easy to leave clues.
Cao Zhiqiang has a lot of good resources at his disposal, and it’s not just martial arts novels, so why does he have to mess with the policy?
What's more, now that Cao Zhiqiang himself and the publishing house he controls are all short of money, it's time to open his own record company and release his own records.
Publishing records or recording tapes of popular songs is not prohibited in China at this time, as long as the lyrics don't go too far.
Some love songs about love, or some red songs about the motherland can be released.
Although the price of a cassette tape in China is not expensive at present, and even a record with songs recorded on it is not expensive, there are so many people.
In a market of one billion people, as long as the songs are good, they can easily sell millions of copies, and they can definitely beat the local market in Xiangjiang.
What's more, he also became a good friend with Japanese singer Masashi Sada. With the help of Masashi Sada's relationship, he can also attack the Japanese market in the future.
For others, the Japanese market is difficult, but for Cao Zhiqiang, who is proficient in Japanese, it is not a problem at all.
During this period, if you export cultural products abroad, as long as the work is good, it will definitely make money.
Because the pop music market at this time, whether domestic or foreign, is a complete blue ocean.
Especially in the domestic music market, competition is small and profits are high. If you just find someone to sing behind bars, you can sell tens of millions of copies. Don’t make too much money.
As long as I can set up a reliable record company early, provide more excellent works, and use Xiangjiang's developed entertainment experience to package a group of artists in the country, I can definitely sweep the inland.
He can even take the opportunity to launch his own and his artists' products abroad, and use good works to make money abroad.
That's right, if you want to be in the music industry, whether it's domestic or foreign, the only dividend period is the next twenty years.
Once we enter the second millennium, with the rise of the Internet and the promotion of MP3 and other technologies, it is not impossible to engage in the music industry at that time, but the profits will be pitiful.
But by that time, I guess I will be older and my musical background will have been squeezed out, so it won’t be a pity to let go of the music industry.
Because Cao Zhiqiang believes that by the year 2000, he will definitely have become an important economic and even industrial giant in the country.
At that time, there will be no problem in giving up a outdated music industry.
