Global Monopoly of Technology

Not long after Qin Weimu left the office, Luo Sheng received a call from Xu Yong, and soon left the office to go to the Technology R\u0026D Department.

Bluestar Technology is currently in a stage of rapid development, and the existing business is continuously developing and expanding according to the established plan. The [Cloud Song Know] project in Yunge Search has been established, which is already planned. Next year will be [Cloud Song Encyclopedia] , the company's search business is in charge of Feng Yi, Yu Jun and Li Mingyuan. Li Mingyuan is mainly preparing for the operation of the "Super Girl" entertainment event.

In addition, the most important task of Bluestar Technology this year is the plan of sharing audio and video. Two major projects, namely music and video, are divided into four major products.

No way, it must be divided into domestic version and overseas version, only in this way can better take into account the operation of global business.

...

"Boss, the Bluestar Music project has been developed, and the internal testing is basically no problem. We think it can be officially launched. When will you decide?"

It was Xu Yong who spoke, and he immediately added: "Oh right, according to the plan [Yun Ge knows] this project has been approved at the beginning of the month, and Feng Yi is in charge."

Luo Sheng nodded: "Just proceed as planned."

Bluestar Technology also has many projects now. In addition to ensuring that the products that have been launched are operating well, new projects have not fallen behind.

Xu Yong asked repeatedly: "When will the Bluestar Music project be launched? Not only the domestic version, but the overseas version has also completed the internal test. As long as you make the decision, both the domestic version of Bluestar Music and the overseas version [MusicSpace] can be synchronized. online."

Bluestar Technology has another major development project, which is Bluestar Video, but this project is still under development, and it may be in the second half of the year after passing the internal test.

Because Luo Sheng took more than 300 technical R\u0026D personnel to the Azure Coast company halfway, and more than one-third of the core backbone technical personnel were transferred, it is impossible to have no impact on Bluestar Technology.

"Continue to optimize, don't rush to launch it for now, wait for me to go to North America and negotiate the copyright issue." Luo Sheng thought for a while and said.

"I think it's possible to let Bluestar Music go online first in China. Anyway, the copyright issue is in China, and we can't do it with those record companies. The overseas version of MusicSpace can wait until the copyright is settled before going online. Boss, what do you think?" Xu Yong The proposal said that it is worth mentioning that the company's two major music projects, the domestic version and the international version are very different, after all, the situation is different.

It must be admitted that in this era, there is no concept of copyright in China at all, and the existing music portals are simply direct transfer of pirated copies, such as the current Baidu MP3 Qianqianjing.

At present in China, someone like Luo Sheng who actively seeks copyright authorization seems crazy to domestic practitioners. Even if they don't need money, they want to spend this unjust money. It's a fool with a lot of money Behavior.

"No!" Luo Sheng rejected Xu Yong's proposal without hesitation, and said, "The early launch will seriously affect my business trip to the United States to discuss copyright matters. If I want to convince the record company to give you the rights you want, this book It's a very difficult thing, and they won't authorize it casually. If you do this, the company's impression in the eyes of those record companies will be greatly reduced, and it will make them feel the fear of being dominated by the Napster network."

Xu Yong was helpless and spread his hands: "Well, wait until you have settled the copyright issue and then go online, just in time to transfer personnel to be responsible for the development of Bluestar Video. But boss, I found that Chen Shijun is a good person, and I recently talked to him. There are frequent emails, he has a lot of insight in streaming technology, I think this is a talent, maybe he can run the overseas version of the [Bluestar Video] video business.”

Hearing this, Luo Sheng smiled and said succinctly, "Heroes see the same thing."

After a while, Luo Sheng added: "The other thing is,

I don't want Jobs to get a quick insight into our intentions. Of course, the Joe Gang mainly looks down on us. That's the best. Our music project is aimed at Apple's iTunes. Compared with us now, Apple is a behemoth. , such a Big Mac had better let it notice us as late as possible. "

Xu Yong's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately looked at Luo Sheng: "I understand, no wonder boss, you want to set up an Azure Coast company and do the mobile phone business of consumer terminals. You want to make the Bluestar music playback function become A must-have feature for a mobile phone?"

Luo Sheng smiled and said, "It's fine if you know it, but don't shout everywhere."

Xu Yong and one of the core cadres who attended the meeting nodded again and again. He would definitely not talk nonsense everywhere. If he took 10,000 steps back and said this, he would not be laughed at and compete with Apple across the border?

Saying this will definitely usher in a crowd of ridicule.

Xu Yong couldn't help but sighed: "To be honest, I never thought that one day I would compete with Apple, and my blood boils when I think about it."

In fact, what is Luo Sheng's intentions?

Going deep into the hinterland of the telecom kingdom with wireless terminals, and personally opening the era of mobile Internet, BlueSpace, the search engine Yunge, Yunge Tieba, Yunge Know, Yunge Encyclopedia, and Bluestar Music [MusicSpace], Bluestar Video [BluestarVideo] and so on.

These are collectively referred to as the "Bluestar Technology Family Bucket", which is the starting point for building a mobile Internet application operating system ecosystem on the Côte d'Azur. One step ahead, one step ahead, what else will happen to the iPhone at that time? What else is going on with the iOS ecosystem?

Must be the Côte d'Azur leader.

Luo Sheng's plan is extremely clear. Azure Coast leads the hardware ecological chain and operating system, and Bluestar Technology leads the software application ecological chain. They go their own way, leaving others with no way to go. If others have a way to go, then Just grab it, and let others have nowhere to go.

Perfect!

...

Entering April, Luo Sheng once again embarked on a trip to North America, his second business trip to the United States, this time he led eleven people to go, and Qin Weimu must be on the list.

On the morning of April 5th, this was the second day that Luo Sheng came to Los Angeles. Today, he was going to meet Morris, the head of Universal Music Group. Before he came to the United States, he had already made an appointment for the time and place.

Luo Sheng is also quite famous in North America. At the end of last year, he appeared on the major mainstream media in Europe and the United States. Now he is a real billionaire worth hundreds of millions. Otherwise, even if he makes an appointment, the head of Universal Music may not think about it. to see him.

Americans are arrogant.

In fact, there is a big gap between record companies and companies in the technology field. This is the evil result of Napster, an Internet company.

However, Gang Master Qiao still broke this estrangement. At least it is not as incompatible as it was a few years ago. Morris is still willing to meet Luo Sheng.

The meeting was at the Malibu Country Club in Los Angeles, Malibu Golf Club, the best golf course in Los Angeles, alone enjoying the spectacular rolling Santa Monica Mountains.

This golf club is half private, half open to the public, only about 45 minutes from the center of Los Angeles, and it is an escape from the hustle and bustle of the city, a private vacation spot, and a good place for business meetings.

Of course, the biggest reason for choosing to meet here is that Universal Music is headquartered here in Santa Monica, Los Angeles.
