In the room, Yang Ming was slightly startled when he heard Zhang Jianbai's words, and then he couldn't help but be filled with emotion.

He couldn't help but think of the tragic loneliness of the record industry in his previous life.

The arrival of the Internet era has had an absolutely unparalleled impact on the traditional music industry, and the music industry in various countries was unexpected!

But at least in countries and regions with relatively complete business systems, they can be supplemented and improved according to new business rules. However, China's music industry is undoubtedly the most tragic in this regard.

On the one hand, there is no mature business system and legal protection, and piracy is rampant; on the other hand, new media companies are completely playing the role of robbers, the most obvious one is Du Niang, who steals everything from movies, music, and novels, except for some

Entertainment companies with a certain strength can get compensation from Du Niang, and other people without background don't even have to think about it.

In the development process from traditional music to digital music, China's music industry collapsed rapidly, and there were even fewer and fewer classic songs.

To be honest, Yang Ming feels that after 2008, there have been basically no outstanding singers. As for the classic music that can be listened to, there are fewer and fewer every year.

Why?

Because it is unprofitable, who is willing to waste their youth on it?

Even those earth-shattering singer talent shows are just covers of previous classics, and there is almost no creation.

So much so that later, some people shouted the slogan: Chinese music is dead!

Sometimes, Yang Ming had to lament that doing entertainment in China in this life was much happier than in the previous life.

At least in terms of copyright, there aren't too many troubling issues, and piracy has been minimized to the minimum harm.

Then there is only one next step, if there is a transition from traditional music to digital music.

"I heard that the business area of ​​the Great World Video Store in Yanjing will be reduced by half next year!" He Huan suddenly said with emotion.

Yang Ming also had an impression of the Great World Audio and Video Store. It was the signature store of Yanjing Audio and Video Store. Even as the face of Yanjing's record industry, he did not expect that the store could no longer hold on.

He has visited this store. It has three floors and a business area of ​​more than 3,000 square meters. It can be called an audio and video flagship store.

Unexpectedly, in order to maintain operations, the business area has also been reduced.

Yang Ming couldn't help but sigh when he heard the news. He couldn't stop this kind of thing. The traditional record industry was being impacted by digital music. This was a general trend and no one could stop it.

The decline of the traditional recording industry seems to have become a consensus among all walks of life.

"Records will die and become collectibles in the future." He said leisurely.

Hearing Yang Ming's words, both Zhang Jianbai and He Huan looked moved. Zhang Jianbai even said with a look of disbelief: "Isn't that true?"

Yang Ming can also understand Zhang Jianbai's difficulty in accepting it. Even if he himself had not known the general trend of the previous life, it would have been difficult for music professionals to accept it. However, compared with the previous life, the music of this life will definitely not be influenced by the traditional record industry.

Disappear and collapse.

Next, Yang Ming told Zhang Jianbai and He Huan in detail about the experience he had experienced in his previous life, and their faces became increasingly ugly.

The two glanced at each other, and He Huan said lonely: "Hey, I went to the Great World Video Store a few days ago, and the number of people was much less than before."

The impact of digital music on traditional records is unparalleled, especially young people are more likely to accept digital music than traditional records CD!

Downloading your favorite music from the Internet to your computer or mobile phone is much faster and more convenient than CDs.

Records were eliminated by tapes, tapes were eliminated by CDs, and now it is CDs’ turn to be replaced by digital music. The world will always develop ahead of the curve and will never stagnate.

"No wonder I saw that you didn't release much of your own solo album last year, but instead vigorously expanded on the Internet." He Huan suddenly realized. "I noticed that your song "Dongfeng Po" just came out, and it was already an Internet music

Ranked No. 1 in downloads for the week.”

"Yes, our company has a dedicated team responsible for the expansion of digital music for singers." Yang Ming nodded and said.

This is also because he has the golden finger to see through the historical development trends, and he asked Oriental Huayin to adjust the company's development focus to digital music early on.

Besides, the predecessor of Oriental Huayin was the ringtone sp company that Yang Ming acquired from Uncle Liu Xinsheng, so he was certainly not unfamiliar with digital music.

Regarding the packaging and promotion of digital music by its singers, it can be said that Oriental Huayin is ahead of all record companies. All websites on the Internet that provide paid music downloads basically have a cooperative relationship with Oriental Huayin.

In today's China, China's protection of copyright and the improvement of commercial laws are enough to support the transformation of the Chinese music industry and not collapse.

Unlike in previous lives, after 2010, there were basically no eye-catching singers and musical works in China.

Because Yang Ming already had a lot of experience in digital music, both Zhang Jianbai and He Huan asked him a lot of related questions, and he did not hide it and told them some of his experiences.

"It's a pity that Niu Hua is not here, otherwise I would have called him out to have a drink with him today."

After talking about music for a while, the three of them changed the topic. At this time, He Huan suddenly said something, and then he glanced at Yang Ming and said: "I really don't understand that you, the director and the leading actor, didn't go there, and he's just a supporting role."

Go join in the fun!"

Yang Ming smiled after hearing this and said: "You don't know that Brother Niu's career focus is gradually turning to the international aspect. Attending the Cannes Awards Ceremony is also a rare opportunity for him."

Naturally, Yang Ming would not object to "Transformers" participating in the selection of the Cannes Awards. However, he thought about going to the scene and still did not go there.

He has been too busy recently. He has to prepare for the crew of "Red Cliff of the Three Kingdoms" and participate in the Greater China Cultural Exchange Gala. He has no skills at all. Besides, this time the Cannes Awards and the Oscars are competing against each other. He doesn't want to look like a fool.

Same, being treated as a pawn and cannon fodder by others.

Therefore, he thought about it and decided not to go there. Manager Liang, who was in Europe, could attend the awards party on behalf of the company.

However, after Niu Hua found out about it, he took the initiative to ask Ying to come over, and Yang Ming naturally wouldn't object.

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the company would start shooting low-budget art films next year or invest in independent films, Yang Ming would not want to get involved in these things.

Who calls the French film market the largest art film market in the world?

In order to increase his presence and increase the popularity of Oriental DreamWorks, Yang Ming decided to participate in the selection.

At least for now, Oriental DreamWorks' center in the foreign film market is in the United States, not Europe.

In the next two days, Yang Ming prepared the crew of "Red Cliff of the Three Kingdoms" in an orderly manner. Since he already had several movie stars and movie stars in his cast, this movie has become the most anticipated movie in the entertainment industry, and he no longer needs to bother to invite actors.

, but many well-known big-name actors took the initiative to contact Oriental DreamWorks, hoping to get a role in it.

This also makes Yang Ming's work a lot easier.
