Shen Fang, Jay Chou, and the other three boarded a plane and arrived in Beijing four hours later, returning to Shen Fang's villa in Xishan.
Upon opening the door, Man Shen and Chen Huilin were sitting on the sofa, cuddling Wangcai and wearing face masks while watching TV. Hearing the door open, Chen Huilin quickly turned around and saw Shen Fang, immediately pounced on him. Clinging to Shen Fang like a koala, Shen Fang quickly grabbed Chen Huilin's shapely buttocks.
"You're back."
Shen Fang stroked Chen Huilin's hair: "Why are you acting like a child? Why didn't you go to rehearsal today?"
"The rehearsals are almost done, now we're just waiting for the judges' review."
Man Shen also came over wearing pajamas and slippers, and removed the face mask from her face.
"What good things did you bring from Taiwan? Did you bring pineapple cakes?"
Shen Fang turned to look at Jay Chou: "Look, I brought back a big singer, so of course I brought pineapple cakes too."
Jay Chou was stunned when he saw Man Yu: "Man, Sister Man Yu."
Maggie Cheung smiled and extended her right hand to greet Jay Chou.
"Jay Chou, I've heard your songs."
Milk Tea Lun quickly shook hands with Man Shen.
Shen Kun and Shen Lanlan put their luggage away.
At noon, Man Shen and Chen Huilin personally cooked a large table of dishes.
Shen Fang took out a bottle of Red Princess Cabernet Sauvignon from the wine cabinet.
Shen Kun poured fine wine for everyone.
Shen Fang raised his glass: "You've been staying here with me these past few days while Jay Chou was filming the commercial. Come to my place, it's like coming to our home, don't be shy."
Jay Chou smiled and said, "Boss, I won't stand on ceremony."
Shen Fang nodded: "I'm a very easy-going person and don't like overly serious superior-subordinate relationships. We get along like friends. Our company hasn't developed a music division yet. The first reason for signing you is to sign a top singer, and the second is to launch Dragon Music. After all, as a media company, music is an area we need to be involved in. This afternoon, I'll take you to our company so you can have a good chat with our general manager. You're an expert in music, so the task of building the company's music division will be entrusted to you. Is that alright?"
Milk Tea Wheel looked completely bewildered: "Huh???"
Shen Fang smiled at Jay Chou: "Our company is actually in a vacuum when it comes to music. I can provide you with whatever you need. You can help set up the company's music department. From now on, you will be in charge of Dragon Music's business. Is that alright?"
Jay Chou was pleasantly surprised to hear this: "I'm in charge?"
Shen Fang nodded: "That's right, you're in charge."
"Boss, music is very expensive. Especially setting up a music company, recording studios, sound equipment, distribution, CD production, singers, producers, arrangers, sound engineers, etc., all of this requires a lot of money."
"If you need money, I'll provide it; if you need manpower, I'll provide it. You just need to focus on building this team. Just tell Sister Lifang what kind of people you need, and I'll fully support you. The future of music will be moving towards the online music era. I have the support of the largest internet user platform. Together, we'll create the first music platform in China, make the domestic music industry bigger and stronger, and create a brilliant future. Do you have confidence?"
Milk Tea Wheel took a sip of his drink: "Boss, making music isn't just about having money. Sister Huilin, don't you agree?"
Chen Huilin nodded and looked at Chen Fang: "Darling, making music isn't something you can just do by throwing money at it. Singers are very important, and you also need hit songs to go with them. Many singers are very famous, but their commercial value is just average."
Chen Fang smiled: "We're still in the CD music era. Let's focus on establishing ourselves first. Losing money is fine. As for singers, we can just discover new talent. We can hold auditions for singers and gradually build their fame and fan base through these shows. I'm not worried about that. As for commercial value, it won't be difficult to monetize it once online music takes off. How much money can a singer make even if they become famous? Not everyone is Jay Chou. I don't pursue absolute success in anything I do. Music is just a simple business strategy to complete the business loop. Even if we can't reach the top, we'll do our best. Jay, as long as you put your heart into it, I will fully support you."
“In today’s music market, you can only make a little money selling CDs. We sign artists just to expand our library for our future online music platform and to build our reputation in advance. Once the online music platform is launched, that will be our tool for making money.”
"Boss, I will do my best."
We've had lunch.
Shen Fang brought Jay Chou to Longteng Media.
As soon as I entered the company, the receptionist screamed.
Jay Chou!!!!!!!!!
The girl's screams caused an uproar, and all the employees immediately gathered around. There was no way around it; Jay Chou was at the height of his fame in 2002, his popularity skyrocketing, especially after his recent concert in Beijing. His fans were arguably the most patriotic people in the country.
Shen Fang's face darkened as he looked at the dense crowd.
"Get back to work, all of you! Want your pay docked?"
The receptionist chuckled and said, "Boss, we're all Jay Chou fans, can we take pictures?"
"What are you all doing? What are you all doing gathered here? Don't you all want to quit?!" a woman's voice rang out. The employees immediately scattered like birds.
Zhong Lifang walked up to Shen Fang and smiled, "Young boss, you're back."
Shen Fang glared at the receptionist: "I'm taking 100 yuan from you today. What kind of behavior is this, yelling and shouting like that?"
The young lady's face fell upon hearing this; my little bit of money was gone.
