That afternoon.

Song Ke used the money he won from playing mahjong to pay several employees in the company two months' salary.

Seeing Song Ke coming back, Gao Xiaosong couldn't take a moment to relax. He immediately pulled Cao Jun and introduced Song Ke: "Old Song, you are finally back. Come, let me introduce you. This is the person I just signed for our company."

Musical genius——Cao Jun."

Seeing that Gao Xiaosong was so interested in the young singer, Song Ke took a serious look at Cao Jun, then reached out to greet Cao Jun and said, "Hello, I'm Song Ke."

Cao Jun also stretched out his hand, shook Song Ke's hand, and politely replied: "Hello, Mr. Song. I have seen you for a long time."

After a few pleasantries, Gao Xiaosong couldn't wait to let Cao Jun sing "Miss Dong" and "Zebra Zebra" to Song Ke in person.

After listening to the two songs "Miss Dong" and "Zebra Zebra", Song Ke was also very touched and said with emotion: "Your music is very special, your style is very novel, and your singing is also good. No wonder Xiao Song said he found a treasure.

Yes, he is indeed a talent..."

Cao Jun smiled and replied: "Thank you, Mr. Song. I am still a newcomer and I still have a lot to learn from you and Teacher Gao."

Song Ke smiled and waved his hand: "You can write your own songs, why are you so humble? We can at most communicate and learn from each other."

Compared with the excited and excited Gao Xiaosong, Song Ke's reaction to Cao Jun was much calmer, but he also made no secret of his appreciation for Cao Jun.

Whether it was Cao Jun's appearance, temperament, or his music creation, Song Ke was very satisfied.

Moreover, Song Ke felt in his heart that Cao Jun's music was very novel, and maybe young people today would like it very much, and maybe it would be a dark horse.

Thinking of this, Song Ke said earnestly: "Xiao Cao, since you have signed with our company, follow your teacher Gao to make records."

"As for me, I have something to do these days and I have to go to Xingjiang. I can't say exactly when I will come back. Just wait for me to come back. I'll have something good for you then."

After listening to Song Ke's words, Cao Jun vaguely guessed that the good thing Song Ke said should be the ringtone on his mobile phone, so he smiled and nodded: "Okay, Mr. Song, you are busy with your work, I will wait for your triumphant return."

."

However, when Gao Xiaosong heard that Song Ke said he was going to Xinjiang, he immediately lost his composure. He knew very well who Song Ke was going to find in Xingjiang.

Gao Xiaosong sneered and said: "Old Song, I'm not talking about you. You are also a highly educated person and have been influenced by Western music. Why do you think so highly of Daolang?"

"We have always tried to guide the public with sophisticated production and create innovative music. If Daolang succeeds, it will be a failure of our guidance and a regression of Chinese pop music."

Obviously, Gao Xiaosong does not approve of Daolang's music. He said that he found it ridiculous when he heard someone online commenting that Daolang's music was very touching.

"If we compare lyrics and music to writing articles, my writing skills are much better than Daolang's."

Song Ke's thoughts were obviously different from Gao Xiaosong's, but he didn't get into a huge quarrel with Gao Xiaosong because of his comments about Daolang.

In Song Ke's view, friends or work partners are meant to seek common ground while reserving differences, and it is normal to have differences. There are no two people with exactly the same views.

After pondering for a moment, Song Ke said calmly: "Xiao Song, I won't argue with you on this issue."

"As an ordinary listener, I think Daolang can catch people with his first voice. As soon as I heard him singing, I felt that he had a chance to become popular. To be honest, I haven't heard such singing and singing in a long time.

, quite down-to-earth.”

"As for what you said about Daolang causing the regression of pop music, I'm sorry, that has nothing to do with me. I can't control it so much!"

"I'm just a music businessman. I don't make music. I don't understand it, and I don't want to understand it. I just want to invest in music that I think has investment value, that's all."

Gao Xiaosong still wanted to argue, but Song Ke didn't give him a chance. He packed his luggage, said goodbye to Gao Xiaosong and Cao Jun, and prepared to set off for Xingjiang.

In fact, Song Ke had met Daolang a few months ago. The two had a drink in the capital and became familiar with each other.

Due to some external factors, the two of them did not have enough fun drinking at that time, so Daolang invited Song Ke to visit Xingjiang when he had time.

Song Ke and Daolang are sympathetic to each other and respect each other very much.

Especially Song Ke, in addition to appreciating his music, he is also very optimistic about Daolang's commercial value.

Just in the past year of 2003, Daolang's album "Love Songs of the Western Regions" took the lead in making a name for himself.

This Xinjiang folk song that combines rock elements is unprecedented and unprecedented.

At that time, some dealers in Urumqi and northern and southern Xinjiang frantically bought the album for secondary sales.

There are also some foreign tourists who come to Xingjiang and buy ten or twenty plates as gifts for their relatives and friends.

Later, the price of this album increased from 16 yuan to 40 to 50 yuan.

Two months later, Daolang held 6 concerts in Xingjiang with "Love Song of the Western Regions", and all the concerts were sold out.

In the end, "Love Song of the Western Regions" sold 110,000 copies, setting a new record for Xingjiang CD releases.

It was at this time that China Mobile found Song Ke and wanted to buy his copyright to make MP3 ringtones.

Song Ke, who was still in Warner Wheatfield at the time, was a little surprised. After so many years of making music, others have always directly infringed the copyright without saying hello. He had never heard of people knocking on the door to give money.

The excited Song Ke quickly reported to the leader of Warner. When the leader of Warner heard him talking about MP3, he immediately became angry. We don't do anything about MP3.

These days, international record companies are very resistant to digital music. When you hear it, you can easily associate it with quality degradation and piracy.

Song Ke, who had a deep hatred for the one-third-acre of the record industry, felt that this might be a turning point in his downfall. He thought about it for a long time, and after he ended up at Warner Bros., his wings were strong enough.

With Gao Xiaosong's help, Song Ke joined Taihe Group with Maitian Music, and Taihe Maitian was established with a high profile.

The newly established company, including him and Gao Xiaosong, had only six people in total, but Song Ke was full of confidence. He deeply felt that young people in China needed him.

After Song Ke learned about Daolang's influence, he decided to seize the opportunity and signed a contract with Daolang regarding mobile phone ring tones.

In Song Ke's view, young people these days have a boring life, and only cell phone ringtones can allow Chinese youth to have their own style.

Of course, the bigger temptation is copyright sharing.

In the past, their record company could only get eighty or ninety cents from selling a genuine cassette for ten yuan.

Rampant piracy and abnormal sales revenue have left Song Ke with no other option but to sue everywhere for many years.

China Mobile's promise is that it only needs 15%, and the remaining 85% will be divided between SP (service provider) and Maitian on a 50-50 or 46-60 basis.

This is simply the return of justice.

Therefore, Song Ke decided to put all his money into the ringtone business.

In order to cooperate with Daolang, Song Ke went to Xingjiang to find Daolang and drank for four days in a row.

On the fourth day, the two of them were so drunk that their faces were red. Dao Lang finally couldn't hold it in anymore and asked boldly: "Brother, come here to see me, something must be wrong."

Seeing Daolang asking about it, Song Ke stopped hiding it. He touched the old wine on his lips and said simply: "I really have something to do."

Song Ke wanted to sign Daolang, but at this time, he already had an agent and a publisher. Song Ke felt that these two people had given Daolang a lot of help, and he couldn't bear to fight for his love.

"I will not steal their business. I will not steal their record publishing contracts or appointments with their acting agents."

Song Ke's face turned red after drinking, and he said passionately: "I want to sign another contract with you!"

"What contract?" Daolang asked.

Song Ke thought for a long time and didn't know what the name of the contract he wanted to sign was called: "Let's just call it a new technology copyright contract!"

Daolang felt that Song Ke's wine was mediocre and he was talking nonsense after drinking too much. He hurriedly declined and said: "Brother, take it away quickly, I don't even know what you are talking about."

Song Ke said solemnly: "Please note, you don't understand what it is at all. In fact, I don't know much about what it is either."

The more he talked, the more mysterious he became: "But it is very likely that it will bring higher income than your performance and record sales."

After saying that, the two of them continued to drink, sitting down and drinking backwards. Song Ke secretly made up his mind that the wine in these four days would not be drunk in vain.

Before leaving, Song Ke left a sincere message: "I can help you earn a villa in Xingjiang!"

Daolang is also a sweet-tempered person. Seeing Song Ke's sincerity, he immediately said: "Brother, I will give you this contract!"

Hearing Daolang's words, Song Ke secretly rejoiced in his heart. With Daolang and Cao Jun joining the mobile ring tones business, I am Taihe Wheatfield Company, so why worry about failing to achieve great success?

On the other side of the capital, Cao Jun also recorded the two songs "Miss Dong" and "Zebra Zebra" in the company's recording studio with the help of Gao Xiaosong.

After recording the two songs "Ms. Dong" and "Zebra Zebra", Gao Xiaosong looked at Cao Jun and smiled, and said with a stern look on his face: "Xiao Cao, I know you must be hiding something secret. You must have some more in your hands."

There can’t be only these two other good songs, so hurry up and get them out!”

Cao Jun smiled and replied: "Naughty, Teacher Gao, I really can't hide anything from you."
