Manager Zhou returned to his seat in a daze, his mind filled with what Manager Huang had just told him.
"It's not that I don't want to buy it, it's that I can't afford it."
"The ridiculous thing is, I can't afford it now."
"Gugu Music, the worst of the five major music platforms, has become the most downloaded software on the entire network thanks to Zhou Tianyi."
"Its profit margin is even higher than that of NetEase Cloud Music, which is due to the music copyright of Zhou Tianyi that it has released to the public."
"In the words of today's young people, it's like making money while lying down, and they're making so much money they're practically numb."
"..."
He learned a lot of previously unknown information from Manager Huang's words.
No wonder millions of netizens are boycotting Zhou Tianyi, yet major platforms haven't taken any action.
It turns out they already had a scale in their hearts, and they could clearly distinguish who was strong and who was weak.
Looking back on what he said then, it was incredibly foolish.
Why are Zhou Tianyi's songs being removed from online platforms?
Isn't that just giving money to other platforms?
Which platform would be so foolish?
Of course, I was even more foolish for making such a stupid suggestion.
Unbeknownst to him, Manager Zhou had begun to place an extremely high value on Zhou Tianyi.
He turned on his computer, ready to learn more about Zhou Tianyi's experiences.
"As someone working on a music platform, you must understand Zhou Tianyi."
At the same time, he gave this instruction to his department's employees.
He also asked them to prepare a PowerPoint presentation about Zhou Tianyi, which they would then present to him at the meeting.
On the internet.
The discussion about Zhou Tianyi continues unabated.
Manager Zhou didn't need to search for them intentionally.
Trending topics on Weibo, Baidu, Toutiao, Bilibili, and Zhihu...
Zhou Tianyi was present in almost all of them.
"Huh..."
Suddenly, Manager Zhou noticed a question and clicked on it out of curiosity.
...
Star Language Music Platform.
Things are going downhill.
The situation is becoming increasingly pessimistic.
Mr. Guo was so worried that several strands of his hair turned white.
Just now in the report.
Among the five major platforms, Xingyu Music replaced Gugu Music and successfully came in last place.
Now.
Their download numbers are the lowest.
Their daily active users are the lowest.
They are the fewest paying users.
User churn is highest among them.
The data is almost entirely appalling.
The outlook is bleak.
Especially at this time.
I'm not afraid of dismal data, I'm afraid of comparisons.
If all his peers acted like this, Mr. Guo wouldn't be so angry that he can't sleep.
The key point is that all the competitors are going against the tide.
Only they went downstream.
Penguin Music, Gugu Music, NetEase Cloud Music, and Kuxia Music—all of their data are rising.
They, instead of retaining their existing users, are losing old users every day.
*Smack*
"With so many people, all industry elites, isn't there any way to deal with this?"
Mr. Guo slammed his fist on the table and roared at the crowd below.
The people below dared not speak and sat in silence.
“If no one is willing to speak up, then the company will allow you to graduate, but the company can’t afford to support so many idle people.”
"If your proposed solution works, this year's year-end bonus will be doubled."
After finishing speaking, Mr. Guo looked coldly at everyone.
Driven by the prospect of graduation and year-end bonuses, everyone's expressions were moved.
"Mr. Guo, I think the most urgent task is to make up for the losses. It would be best to renegotiate the licensing price of Zhou Tianyi's songs with Gugu Music."
"That's right. Most of the platform's user churn is due to the lack of Zhou Tianyi's songs, and these are all paid users."
“I object. Gugu Music was so assertive back then, even paying the breach of contract penalty directly. Now they want us to beg them for the copyright to Zhou Tianyi’s songs? Isn’t that ridiculous?”
"That's right. We should cultivate singers for our own platform. How can one Zhou Tianyi possibly affect the development of an entire platform?"
"My suggestion is that we should not let Zhou Tianyi off so easily, and at the same time we need to cultivate our own singers."
"Even if we don't have it, we'll still invest money to cultivate it. In the era of traffic, nothing is impossible."
"We can choose Qingyu. She has enough fame and strength, plus her relationship with Zhou Tianyi. She can be a key person to cultivate."
"..."
Everyone shared their ideas, and through brainstorming, strategies emerged one after another.
Mr. Guo listened silently, nodding occasionally, and finally made his decision.
"Okay, this matter will be handled by multiple departments working together. The talent department will be responsible for training singers, the marketing department will be responsible for discrediting Zhou Tianyi, and other departments will cooperate."
"yes!"
...
Closed.
One question caught Manager Zhou's attention.
"Zhou Tianyi's rise to fame was entirely due to luck. Would he still be popular today?"
There wasn't a single swear word in it, but in Manager Zhou's eyes, it seemed so out of place.
He clicked on it and saw that the content was short; he finished reading it quickly.
"Zhou Tianyi is quite talented, but his rise to fame is entirely due to luck."
"If he debuted now, with his rapping style, he would have no chance of becoming a big star."
"I can't even understand the lyrics, and I can't understand the singing. I really can't figure out why it's so popular."
This question was included in the trending topics list and quickly appeared on the trending list.
"If Zhou Tianyi debuts now, can he still become popular?"
In an instant, it attracted countless discussions among netizens.
"Why can't he become popular? No one but him can sing his songs with the feeling of a divine song."
