Chapter 445 Blockbuster

The press conference was scheduled to be held at 3:00 p.m., because Minghu Culture Company suddenly started to settle accounts after autumn, so it had to be postponed again and again. After dealing with the thick stack of newspapers in his hand, Guo Zheng, the manager of Minghu Culture’s publicity department, said Say "I'm sorry" and get up to leave. After that, the media that had left before began to enter the venue one after another.

Of course, there are still a small number of those who came back. There are more than 60 media outlets, at least 30 or 40 of them would rather break up than slap themselves in the face.

But fortunately, the truly influential big media, such as major TV stations, and major newspapers, etc., still have a bottom line, so from the beginning, they have never participated in those attacks against Li Qian and Liao Liao's reports, and therefore, at this time, they are all sitting there watching the fun.

As soon as Guo Zheng left, the meeting room became noisy again.

At around 3:50, the door to the conference room finally opened again, and Qi Jie was the first to walk out.

With a swipe, the scene instantly quieted down, and they all stared intently at this beautiful CEO who has been very famous in the industry in the past two years—and behind her... er, there are two foreigners.

If other reporters came, they might not be familiar with those two people, but most of the reporters here have been running the entertainment section all the year round, so they are very familiar with their faces. For example, as soon as a few people appeared at this time, someone With sharp eyes, he recognized it immediately, and then whispered to the acquaintance next to him, "Why is Michael Johnson from Rolling Stone Records here? It seems that it's not a catch, it's a real thing!"

During the conversation, a group of four people, Qi Jie, Guo Zheng and two foreigners, all came out, and then, many people at the scene were stunned - where is Li Qian? What about Liao Liao?

After the ultimate silence, there was a bang from the audience, like a frying pan.

Please, why doesn't anyone come here!

A group of four people came to the rostrum and sat down one after another.

Guo Zheng pressed the microphone and said, "Hello, everyone, friends from the press. Please be quiet for a while. Our press conference is about to start. Please be quiet, okay?"

Hundreds of reporters in the audience looked at each other in blank dismay, and then they all quieted down, but the questions in their hearts came out one after another. In the blink of an eye, apart from the few questions that were originally prepared to ask Almost everyone has N more greetings in their minds, and N more questions they want to ask!

At this time, before Guo Zheng could start speaking according to the normal press conference procedure, Qi Jie suddenly pressed the microphone in front of him, picked it up, looked at the reporters in the conference room, smiled, and said: "Everyone Alright, we are old friends now... Uh, before the official press conference starts, I want to say a few words... About the matter of our Propaganda Department Manager Guo Zheng driving people out!"

The scene was so quiet that a needle could be heard.

There was only the sound of snapping pictures.

Qi Jie held the microphone in his hand, and said slowly: "It's the same sentence, everyone is an old acquaintance. I personally have been the general manager of Minghu Culture Company since the day it was established, and it has been three years now. In the past three years, I have always been in charge of dealing with you. I have been blocked by many of your friends, er, in the elevator room. Of course, I have also been shut down by many of your friends. Look. But, . . . but as we all know, this is our job, right?"

She smiled and said: "Without the media, there would be no celebrities, but conversely, without celebrities, the media would lose a lot of news. Therefore, our relationship is interdependent. We can strive to be friends, but we cannot become friends. At least they are also business colleagues, or partners, right? At least, we don’t change into enemies, so..."

Speaking of this, she stood up, smiled frankly, and said: "Some time ago, we suffered a lot of unwarranted attacks and slanders, and we didn't stand up to defend ourselves, because we knew that those people were really spreading rumors out of thin air. They are talking nonsense without any basis, and in that case, everyone here, and the newspapers, radio stations, TV stations, and magazines behind you, you did not choose to follow blindly, you have your own news bottom line, so you did not join In the midst of attacks on our Minghu culture and our company's singers, here, on behalf of Minghu culture as a whole, and also on behalf of myself, and Li Qian, I would like to express my gratitude to everyone!"

After finishing speaking, she put her hands on her chest and bowed deeply.

All quiet.

Of course, the clicking sound of taking pictures became more and more intense.

Then, she straightened up and said with a smile: "Of course, there are many friends here who participated in the previous attack on our company, so before the start of this press conference, we expressed our attitude, thank you You... you guys who came back, actually we don’t need to apologize, really. Li Qian told me many times, he said, we can’t control everyone’s mouth, so, be yourself, what others like to say , as they wish.”

After a pause, she continued: "So, welcome back, I also hope that the past is just a small episode, it's over, it's over, it's the same sentence, I hope we can be friends, even if we can't be friends, At least it is also a partner. For example, when you really need news and feel that the sales and ratings have been dropping recently, you can contact me and I will help you to provoke them. Maybe someone and someone will call again in the air Talking about it...the sales will come, right?"

Many people at the scene laughed lowly.

Qi Jie laughed too.

Who is this talking about, no need to mention the name, everyone has already understood it.

Then, Qi Jie said again: "Of course, it's totally possible. After attending this press conference, you can still say what you want to say and write what you like when you go back, because that is the freedom of your media. For example Everyone who came back, after you go back, you still feel that you still want to scold, you can continue. In fact, we have not blocked the energy of any media. If it is not possible, you can specifically report negative news about our company and its singers. That may be a good way The same sentence, we can't control anyone's mouth, let alone control so many media present here, so, what we did just now, we just want to express an attitude, that is: I hope to be friends with everyone, rather than being an enemy."

After a pause, she put away her smile and said sincerely: "I wasted a lot of time, and then, I also made many friends very troubled. Here, I also want to say sorry!"

Having said that, she clasped her chest with her hands again, bowed deeply, and said, "Everyone forgive me!"

Straightening up, she nodded off the stage, turned around and sat down.

Guo Zheng, who was sitting at the farthest side, exchanged glances with her, picked up the microphone and was about to speak, when suddenly, sparse applause began to erupt from the audience. Then, Guo Zheng hesitated for a moment and did not speak. There were more and more, and within ten seconds, the applause resounded throughout the conference room.

Qi Jie smiled, nodded to everyone, and said, "Thank you...thank you!"

Everyone knows that the blatant expulsion of more than 60 media outlets, not only where it is placed, is definitely an unprecedented event, especially the expulsion of journalists is only a record company, which makes this matter even more unusual .

Even for those media that have not been expelled, some are angry and disdainful of their peers who have no bottom line in reporting. , as a colleague, I have personally witnessed the expulsion of more than 60 media outlets. There must be those who are saddened by the death of rabbits and foxes, and who share the same hatred.

However, when Qi Jie said such a candid statement, it quickly attracted applause from hundreds of reporters present.

Minghu culture's way of life has indeed always been like this——

I want to be friends with each of you, but I don't mind if you insist on being my enemy! Even if you have done what my enemy would do, I will show my attitude, but I still welcome you back as a friend, even though I know that one day, you will still betray me and stand on the opposite side of me, But what does that matter?

We only do what we have to do.

As a company that mainly produces and distributes records, we will work hard to make good music and cultivate more popular stars, and then, when you feel that we are valuable, you will naturally come back and be friends with us.

You know, in today's increasingly impetuous society, as well as this more impetuous and exaggerated entertainment circle, those who can persist in doing things like this, making music, always rejecting all hype, and rejecting any interviews related to scandals From the perspective of so many professional journalists present, there are really fewer and fewer companies.

For a company that does things and behaves with this mentality, everyone will be willing to give a little bottom-line respect and respect from the bottom of their hearts.

It's like this burst of applause!

Then, there was such a spontaneous and collective applause, no one needed to say anything, just like what Qi Jie said, the relationship between celebrities and reporters is interdependent, so... everyone was silent.

…………

After the applause paused, Guo Zheng finally got the chance, leaned closer to the microphone, and said, "Well, now our press conference officially begins. First of all, we still need to invite Mr. Read the draft first."

Qi Jie smiled, and many reporters at the scene also smiled heartily.

Then, Qi Jie took out the prepared manuscript, looked at it, but put it down again, and said with a smile: "Everyone is old acquaintances, how should you use the official accent, you are much more familiar than me, right? So, through The manuscript will be sent to everyone later, and if necessary, we can also provide an electronic version, and it can be typed directly after going back. So... I won’t read it, just say a few things, okay?”

"Okay!" Someone at the scene agreed loudly.

Qi Jie smiled, raised her volume slightly, and said, "The first thing to do is to announce the personnel changes within our company. Li Qian will no longer be the company's music director, but will be the company's art director... That’s right, you all know that we started filming and television. This is decided by the boss, and I don’t even have the right to speak! Then, uh...can you ask questions after I finish speaking? Then, because of our repeated invitations, finally, Mr. Xie Mingyuan has agreed to become the new music director of our Minghu Culture Company."

There was a little commotion in the audience.

Anyone who runs entertainment news all the year round must know Xie Mingyuan. He is the big guy who has been in charge of Sony Records, the leader in the domestic record industry, for seven years!

And now, just one year after leaving Sony Records, this big guy was recruited by Minghu Culture. You know, the industry has recognized it before. As far as people are concerned, the one who is qualified to be ranked second is probably Xie Mingyuan - before Li Qian made his debut, he was the leader in this circle to some extent!

And now, the number one in the industry and the number two in the industry have joined hands!

Is there a way out for others?

Noticing the commotion in the audience, Qi Jie looked up, but only paused for a moment, and then continued: "The second thing, yes, the news everyone got before is true. The soundtrack and theme song of the American movie "Titanic" were all completed by Li Qian, and during the soundtrack of "Titanic", he also invited Mr. Xie Mingyuan to serve as his soundtrack assistant. In addition, Liao Liao The new album, called "My-heart-will-go-on", was jointly released by Minghu Culture and Rolling Stone Records. The detailed information of this album will be sent to everyone in the press release later. , I only want to emphasize one point here, that is, the entire album was created by Li Qian, including six English songs and four Chinese songs. This album, in Li Qian's original words, is to Respect the tastes of Western audiences and fans, but also focus on expressing our Chinese, oriental culture."

After a pause, she said, "Then, this is still the matter. With the release of Liao Liao's album, we have reached a strategic partnership with Rolling Stone Records..."

While speaking, she stretched out her hand, pointed to the two foreigners beside her, and said, "Well, speaking of which, I would like to introduce the two sitting next to me, this one is the global senior vice president of Rolling Stone Records, Roman Mr. Nove. As for the other one, many of my friends must know him, he is the general manager of Rolling Stone Records China, Mr. Michael Johnson."

Following her introduction, the two executives of Rolling Stone Records got up one after another and nodded their heads.

Then, after they sat down, Qi Jie said again: "From now on, we and Rolling Stone Records will carry out a series of close cooperation in the global market. The specific method is, the new album that Rolling Stone Records will release next , in China, Minghu Culture will be the exclusive agent for distribution rights. Minghu Culture will release a new album next, and in other places except China and Southeast Asia, Rolling Stone Records will obtain the exclusive distribution rights."

Boom... this time it's not a commotion, it's just a bit of a mess.

Rolling Stone Records has been the largest music giant in the world for the past ten years. It owns the largest number of stars and labels. Although the sales of these English-speaking singers in China, especially the sales of genuine copies, are not too large, Minghu Culture Even if you win the exclusive agency right, the benefits are estimated to be limited, but the symbolic meaning in it is very great!

Considering that the market of Rolling Stone Records is global, it is not considered that their business in China has been carried out all the time because of China's unique cultural and art access rules, and the fact that Chinese people listen to English songs seldom. It went too smoothly. In the eyes of Chinese people, it means that the degree of "sinicization" is not enough, but after all, when it comes to global influence, people are still the first.

And now, Minghu Culture actually got a nearly equal cooperation opportunity from Rolling Stone Records!

At this moment, many reporters couldn't help but think of this sentence: Is this really going to start to scan the world map?

At this time, someone couldn't control himself, so he stood up and asked excitedly: "Mr. Qi, so, after Liao Liao's album, you will continue to release global albums for singers under Minghu Culture. album?"

Qi Jie smiled when she heard the words, waved her hand to signal the other party to sit down, and then said with a smile: "Please sit down, please sit down first. Uh, it's not time for questions yet, but since the questions have already been asked, I will answer them first , but other questions, wait until later, okay? Then, regarding this question, will Minghu Culture promote more singers to the world... Yes!"

With a bang, the audience was full of noise.

What is a blockbuster!

This is the bombshell!

At a time when domestic record companies, large and small, are still struggling to compete for the market, even to the point of losing their blood, Minghu Culture has already begun to focus on the global market, and is preparing to push people out one after another!

Shuashuashua, countless arms on the scene raised up.

Qi Jie reluctantly made a gesture of "Be safe and don't be impatient", and said, "Then let me hurry up and finish the third point quickly, so everyone can ask questions, okay?"

Many reporters looked at each other and lowered their arms helplessly.

So Qi Jie continued: "The third thing, Liao Liao's album will be officially released globally on June 18th, which is Friday. Of course, in China, everyone will also be on that day. , you can go to various audio-visual stores and bookstores across the country to buy this album. At the same time, there is a bonus message, which must have been known to many friends, the movie "Titanic" will be released in June At the beginning of the month, you may know the specific date better than me. In short, in early June, it will be screened in China, and then everyone will be able to enjoy Li Qian’s soundtrack for this movie. At the same time, in The first album after we reached a strategic cooperation with Rolling Stone Records, which is the original soundtrack of this movie, will be released at the same time. If you want to try something new, first listen to the song "My-heart-will-go-on" friends , you can start paying attention!"

Having said that, she shrugged her shoulders and said, "Okay, finally finished speaking, then... shall we start asking questions?"

With a swipe, the arms were raised one after another, and it looked like a large forest.
