Chapter 1422: Why Don’t You Give In?

Of course Fujita knew that Yamada didn't have such a brain. In fact, most Japanese companies will negotiate through the chaebol behind them when conflicts and disputes occur.

Ultimately, they will draw a red line, and as long as they compete within this range, both parties will be able to accept it.

Let's put it this way, this is unimaginable in the United States. Even if William White and Steve Jobs had a tacit understanding, it would be impossible to tell fat cat Tom, that's it, it's almost done. If he pinches too hard, Old Joe may die.

Don't say anything, this is the so-called cultural difference. What Yamada thought was normal seemed as awkward to Fujita's ears. Besides, is this the point? Don’t you know what the topic our boss is concerned about is?

Assholes, Microsoft's CE is on the market, can your own stuff work?

What are you thinking about?

Damn, there is one format for video and another format for music. Huh, your format can only play Somi’s film library. In addition, you can still find several companies that are willing to cooperate.

Everyone is not walking on the same path, so breaking up on bad terms becomes the only possibility.

Ryosuke Yamada was a little aggrieved. After all, Somi music was not just played in Asia, Europe and the United States. It was really capable of competing with William White.

But what this guy didn't expect was that when he went to report to work the next day, things took a turn for the worse.

There is no other reason, the legendary i touch and music mall are online.

MP3 players have been around for a long time, but the copyright issue that has been criticized has never been properly resolved. This stuff was not invented by Big Rabbit Country, but it is sold all over the world in Big Rabbit Country. But what makes the record company miserable is that the song is popular and the singer is famous, but the tapes and CDs cannot be sold.

There are ten songs on a cassette, not to mention that most of them are just fake. At the very least, if half of them are close to the standard of the title song, this record is considered well-made.

Unfortunately, except for a few who can reach this level, most of them cannot. It’s not that the record companies don’t work hard. If the top ten songs are the title songs, they can make several hits. All the resources are used on one or two people. This is not only a huge waste, but also overdrafts the singer’s popularity.

This one is easy to sell, but what about the next one?

It may not always be the title song. Unless you are a singer-songwriter yourself, it is absolutely impossible. No matter how talented a songwriter is, the so-called peak of creation is extremely short-lived. If you can come up with a classic song in a flash of inspiration, you should thank the gods and Buddhas in the sky.

But the emergence of MP3 has broken this balance. As long as I want, I can arrange the playlist according to my own preferences. It can be said that there will be no waste and no need to switch songs frequently.

Do you know why CD players are slowly becoming popular?

The sound of the CD player is on the hard side, and if you listen with headphones, the tape may be more suitable for your ears. But one good thing about CD players is that fast forwarding will not damage the CD. In fact, a CD player is very inappropriate for outdoor use. Although a more advanced player is said to be shockproof, it is unlikely that it will not affect the music quality.

After getting MP3, many users were surprised to find that apart from the sound quality, there were some flaws. This thing performed perfectly in all aspects.

To say that Somi is not a fool, the MD they created actually fully considered the shortcomings of CD players.

Gee, that’s a very good idea, tape, CD, MD. You bastard, just follow you and buy electronic products.

What's behind this MD?

The idea was good, but unfortunately, the advent of MP3 broke Japan's imagination.

In fact, according to William White, MD has the possibility to replace CD. The sound quality is better, the shockproof effect is better, and most importantly, this thing fully takes into account the copyright issue.

It's a pity that Suomi is used to eating alone and has no intention of sharing anything with the world. If all the audio and video products around the world are bought from them, the slight loss now is nothing.

"President, they don't have any sincerity. That guy Fujita is very arrogant and looks like a rich man."

"Shut up, I shouldn't have arranged for you to go. Yamada, why can't you see the reality clearly at this point?"

"Um, President?" Yamada Ryosuke was immediately dumbfounded. Once upon a time, weren't you the ones who said these words? Brother, it’s just a repetition now. Do you have such a big reaction?

But, that’s how the Japanese workplace is. If the leader says you are wrong, then you are really wrong, yes or no.

"If you're not convinced, look at this. Damn it, the record company is bound to be in trouble."

When William White put a slew of music on the Internet, the world was in uproar. Damn, this thing is perfect, and the price for buying music is not unacceptable. .

Huh? Computer random play is actually free.

With no publicity or advertising, just a small pop-up window of ICQ, i touch and music mall quickly caused a stir.

What? We are paying users, and your advertising push is too much.

Well, that's not the case. The user number of ICQ is also the user number of the music mall. As a paying user, we provide some free song downloads.

Well, the American people have never thought that in addition to needing to remember their social security account numbers, they also need to remember their ICQ numbers. With the launch of more and more related products, it is difficult to imagine what will happen if you lose this number one day.

And some people who have stereotypes about the Internet have gradually discovered the fact that if you have to measure the promotional effect of this small pop-up window in money, it must be measured in hundreds of millions.

Yamada Ryosuke was completely dumbfounded. He couldn't even imagine how they, Somi, would deal with it once this stuff became popular.

Are you determined not to compromise?

Apart from other things, have you ever considered the musician factor?

Every time a song is downloaded, the music mall will pay the corresponding banknotes to the music copyright holder. The i touch has just gone on sale, and the quantity will not be spread soon. Because the production link has always been the weakness of Legendary World. But as time goes by, God knows how many units they will sell.

And the price of $199 doesn’t seem so outrageous. Look, it’s still bundled as always. When you buy an i touch, you also have the right to download thirty songs.

Um, excluding the price of the three albums, it seems, it seems like it’s only a hundred dollars?

As a result, World Mall and Amazon sold out at the same time. From push to selling 100,000 i touch units, it takes no more than eight hours at most.

Crazy, this method of hunger sales can actually work repeatedly. It's the same when selling game consoles, it's the same when selling computers, and now it's the same when selling MP3s!
