Chapter 331 Microsoft Talent Training Base
The faces of many reporters stiffened, and there was a strange look on their faces. Wasn't it because they said bad things about Avril before and hurt you a few times? Why did they treat us so badly? - Many reporters were "full of guilt". They criticized Avril like that.
, it’s not the boss’s instructions, let alone the needs of the market. There are so many fans of Britney, and a newcomer suddenly jumps out to challenge Britney’s record sales, so the fans naturally won’t do it. If you don’t criticize yourself, how can the fans love to watch it.
If fans don't like reading it, how can you sell newspapers?
We are innocent!—many reporters screamed in their hearts.
"But I'm really sorry, Avril is preparing for a record release event, so I can't accept your interview." Lin Feng refused directly.
Many reporters had expected it, but if they retreated so easily, they would not be called reporters anymore.
"Mr. Lin, can we have an album of Avril's "Let-Go"? I think you should also understand that if there are comments from music critics, it will be of great benefit to Miss Avril's record sales." A reporter said.
I hope I can impress Lin Feng with the benefits, "Didn't you bet Enix $10 million? You don't want to lose, right?"
Lin Feng smiled coldly.
"Sorry, Avril said that she hopes this album can be released to all fans as soon as possible. So it is not convenient to disclose it at the moment." Lin Feng's words petrified many reporters on the spot.
Many reporters looked at each other in confusion, wondering how they would go back to report if things continued like this.
"Of course, Avril is not an unreasonable person, but I only have a record of Avril's "Let-Go" in my hand, and I don't know who to give it to." Lin Feng took out Avril's record from his pocket.
Many reporters looked at it with envy and wanted to take it for themselves, but with so many people present, no one would give up easily. Of course, many reporters could not complain too much about Lin Feng. It will go on sale on December 1, you
Who would believe it when they say there is only one record? It’s obvious that they are just here to entertain us! But now is not the time to talk about face, nor is it the time to talk about unity. Who can get the record is the king.
"Of course, I think it's hard for you to make a choice. How about this, I will hold a short auction in the evening, and the highest bidder will win! What do you think?" Lin Feng smiled strangely.
Many reporters were in an uproar, secretly scolding Lin Feng for being shameless. They didn't have enough entertainment now, and there was an auction to entertain them in the evening. But don't you want to participate in this auction? Of course not. There are so many reporters at the scene, if you don't go, someone else will naturally go.
, I’m afraid other reporters would rather someone didn’t go. Although I feel a little bit unwilling to be tricked by Lin Feng like this, but for the sake of my job and my money, I will bear it!
All the reporters secretly shed tears and sighed that it was hard to be a reporter.
"Haha, of course, Miss Avril will attend and sing a song from the album herself. Also, I don't want to make money from you, but I want to take the opportunity to set up an 'Avril Charitable Foundation' to provide
We provide help to those who want to pursue music but have no choice but to give up music due to various life reasons." Lin Feng said.
Many reporters looked refreshed. No matter what happened to the auction in the evening, at least they now had reports to write, and at least they could submit their reports for the time being.
Not long after, a piece of news about Avril's auction of her first record appeared in major newspapers. Even newspapers that had passed the release time published it on the official website immediately. Many fans were very concerned about Avril's auction of her first record.
, I was slightly surprised, but I was shocked and admired at the same time when I learned that he had given up music in order to support people who had difficulties in life.
The balance in my heart unconsciously began to tilt towards Avril.
This charity fund preparation was also an idea that suddenly came to Lin Feng. The gap between Avril's fame and Britney's can almost be calculated in astronomical units (1 astronomical unit = the distance from the sun to the earth). If Lin Feng didn't help him build momentum, it would be difficult.
PK with Blaney. If Avril loses, Lin Feng loses.
This auction has been promoted by many reporters and has once again become a hot topic of discussion among people across the United States. Not only do they want to see which media will finally take the photo, but they also want to hear Avril's singing again. For the first time, due to various reasons, they
I couldn't concentrate on listening to the song, so I naturally don't want to miss it again this time. Although the record will be officially released on December 1st, isn't it still three days away? Once a person's desire is aroused, it is like thousands of ants in the heart.
Crawling inside and unable to control.
The United States is indeed a country with the most developed commercialization. After learning the news, a TV station immediately approached Lin Feng, hoping to broadcast the auction live. Of course, it was mainly for Avril, but the American media was also convinced that
American audiences must be looking forward to the auction bidding scenes of major newspapers and magazines.
However, to the great chagrin of these TV stations, they forgot that Lin Feng owns a national TV station. Instead of getting the live broadcast rights, their request reminded Lin Feng. At that time, Lin Feng contacted Terry and asked him to send
People came over and broadcast it live across the United States. The auction time was also set at 19:45 in the evening.
Lin Feng's "fsn-ouston" TV station now has no attractive programs except "Prison Break". Don't look at the astonishing 52.1 million ratings yesterday for "Prison Break", but as soon as "Prison Break" ended, the ratings
After plummeting, only tens of thousands of people continued to watch the "fsn-houston" program. Lin Feng took advantage of this auction to once again increase the ratings of his own TV station and expand the TV station's influence.
Jobs also secretly admired Lin Feng's amazing moves. Although the auction of his first record did give Avril a negative image of being greedy for money, Lin Feng also announced the establishment of the "Avril Charitable Foundation".
Funding those poor people who love music can instantly turn disadvantages into advantages.
Jobs suddenly had an idea in his mind that Britney might really lose this time. Although Britney lost to Avril, it did not mean that the "ipod" would lose to the "Phantom", but Lin Feng's surprise move
The frequent occurrences made Jobs even more wary of Lin Feng.
During this trip to Europe, "ipod" must not lose. This is no longer just a matter for "Apple". Under the media's publicity, it has been elevated to a "war" between American companies and Chinese companies. Although Steve Jobs
It seems dismissive, but "Apple" really cannot afford to lose.
It will take at least 10 days for Blaney to go to Europe to promote the album. These 10 days are a gap period. In the past, Jobs's strategy of putting up more posters, advertising on major TV stations, and adding the "Apple" brand was enough to achieve what he wanted.
The effect. But things are different now. With Lin Feng as a strong opponent, Jobs must be cautious.
After thinking about it, Jobs called Milan. On one point, Jobs was extremely confident. The foundation of "Apple" was not owned by Lin Feng, and the talents of "Apple" were not what Lin Feng, a company that had just been established for one year, could achieve.
Comparable.
Indeed, in terms of talent pool, the gap between Lin Feng and "Apple" is as big as heaven and earth. Now the only person in the company who can be considered as a talent is Tan Zhi. However, Tan Zhi has been dragged to the United States and has to compete with Microsoft and International.
The Recording Association was discussing cooperation matters, and Lin Feng was still dealing with Avril's matter, so he couldn't leave for a while. Besides, Lin Feng had always been the decision-maker, just like Steve Jobs, who decided everything over the phone and gave orders directly.
Now we are facing a brand new European market. Without the help of relevant marketing and management talents who are familiar with it, Lin Feng will be blind.
However, China has never been short of talents. When Lin Feng decided to "move the tiger away from the mountain" and shift Jobs' attention from the United States to Europe, Tan Zhi recommended a talent to Lin Feng.
Tang Jun!
At first, Lin Feng was very unfamiliar with Tang Jun, but when Tan Zhi handed Tang Jun's information to Lin Feng, Lin Feng felt a little stupid when he saw Feng Weiwei.
Tang Jun is known as the "Working Emperor". Although he has always been a worker, his income has already made him a billionaire. What really surprises Lin Feng is that Tang Jun is also the president of Microsoft China at this moment!
Tan Zhi had previously been the deputy general manager of Microsoft China, so he was familiar with Tang Jun, who was the president of Microsoft China. This time he recommended Tang Jun because he admired Tang Jun's ability. Lin Feng's company needed such a person to open up the market for him.
"Mr. Tan, Tang Jun is the president of Microsoft China. Will he condescend to come to our company?" Lin Feng was a little confused. He is the president of Microsoft China. Compared with Microsoft, his company is simply not worth mentioning.
"Haha, Director Lin, don't worry, he will definitely come. Because when he went to Microsoft, he had the original intention of "stealing skills from others". Now that he has learned skills, he will naturally become a teacher. Now in China, except for Director Lin, you
company, what other company could interest him?" Tan Zhi said with a smile.
Lin Feng thought about it, and it was indeed the case. Now his "Lin's Technology Co., Ltd." is competing with "Apple", which is known to the whole world, and this time the two companies are squaring off and facing off head-on. I believe it is attractive to Tang Jun.
Definitely not small. But it seems that I am poaching Microsoft again. I wonder what Bill Gates will think of me in the future. If there are no talents, I will go to Microsoft to poach. Microsoft seems to have become my own talent training base.
Thinking of this, Lin Feng found it funny. Of course, if you always poach Microsoft, sooner or later you will attract the big tiger Microsoft. However, talent is important right now. The tiger hasn't come yet. When it comes, you may already have the strength.
Competed with Microsoft.
"But Director Lin, if you want to poach him, you must show your sincerity." Tan Zhi said.
After reading Tan Zhi's information, Lin Feng also knew that Tan Zhi was not the kind of person who was short of money. He didn't care about money, but he had to show his sincerity to him and not insult his identity. If he wanted to prove a person's worth, he should
When you can't give someone an enviable position, you can only use money to prove his worth.
However, Tang Jun serves as the president of Microsoft China. Although his annual salary is only US$320,000, he still gets 10%-40% sales commission every year, as well as Microsoft stock awards. If he wants to poach Tang Jun, I am afraid he will have to bleed a lot. After all, he has always been
