Reinventing the Millennium

Chapter 204 Half a poem

He who has not been to the Great Wall is not a true man.

Because he was worried that he was not a good man, Fang Zhuo still did not go on a business trip.

He originally wanted to take the young Jay Chou to the capital for a stroll, but the latter was focused on the composition of "Azure" and expressed that he wanted to concentrate on creation, so he had to give up.

Regarding song creation, Fang Zhuo feels unreliable. He can't remember exactly when the song "Blue and White Porcelain" was released, but it must be several years away. In case Jay Chou himself really comes up with another version of "Blue and White Porcelain" Wouldn't it be worse?

So, before Jay Chou returned, Fang Zhuo treated him and his team to a meal on behalf of Yi Ke, which was regarded as entertaining the Taiwanese compatriots.

"Dr. Jay, I've been too busy recently and haven't entertained you well. Please come and play more in the future."

Fang Zhuo sat in the main seat and looked kind-hearted.

However, the news that he was ruthless and cruel to people was also heard by Jay Chou through some channels. He was gossiping about it with his own people in the hotel last night. When he saw Fang Zhuo today, he felt different.

"Well, it's very thoughtful and eye-opening." Jay Chou told the truth. Whether it was the scene at the press conference or the inside story of the business war, he really felt like he was seeing a new world.

"Teacher Xu, let's show Director Jay our azure color palette." Fang Zhuo still habitually calls Xu Keden, who serves as "Product Director", "teacher."

Xu Keden has no problem with opening a new color product, but he just feels that it is a bit awkward to open it for young singers from Baodao.

He handed over the information a little helplessly, then took out Ruci from his briefcase and placed it in front of his boss.

Ru porcelain is a treasure handed down from ancient times. There are only a few pieces in the world, but there are many imitations of Ru porcelain on the market. In order to confirm the color of the product, Xu Corden collected many exquisite imitations of contemporary masters.

Fang Zhuo played with the porcelain in his hand, waited for Chairman Jay to take a look at the information and then introduced: "The Ru porcelain in my hand is called a 'hat cup'."

"Why this name?" Jay Chou asked.

Fang Zhuo turned the cup upside down: "It looks like an ancient bamboo hat when covered with it."

Jay Chou took a closer look and found that it was indeed the case.

Fang Zhuo eloquently said: "The shape of your porcelain is simple. Looking at the shape of this ancient rain-protecting vessel and the azure color, it seems that a picture of a scholar traveling on a rainy day appears in front of me."

"The patterns of cicada wings in the cup are the ripples of rain falling on the lake."

Jay Chou listened to the description, took the hat cup, saw the special lines on the cup surface, and nodded gently.

Today's banquet was held in an antique private restaurant. There was a pot of wine on the table, which was quite leisurely and elegant, and it went well with Ru Ci's explanation.

But this doesn't quite match Jay Chou's impression of Fang Zhuo's style of painting.

The next words brought his "mismatch" to its peak.

"Back then, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty dreamed of 'after the rain, the blue sky breaks the (harmonious) place.' Last night, I also dreamed of the blue sky." Fang Zhuo said with a smile, "But it was only half a song. I was thinking about Zhou Dong needs to write songs for our products next, which is perfect."

Jay Chou was stunned.

Not only him, everyone at the banquet today was stunned.

Liu Yangyang sighed inwardly, why do men become so arty after becoming successful?

Jay Chou endured it for a few seconds, and then said: "Mr. Fang, there is no interference in song creation in our contract. I will definitely write a satisfying song for the company called 'Azure'."

Hey, that's not what I want.

Fang Zhuo also knew that this situation was difficult to talk about, so he just smiled and said: "Don't interfere, don't interfere, it doesn't hurt to listen."

Jay Chou put down his hat cup expressionlessly and said, "Then you sing."

The entire box fell silent, and everyone looked at the young president.

Fang Zhuo blushed.

Su Wei had known Fang Zhuo for so long, and this was the first time she saw him blush.

Fang Zhuoyu didn't know it, so he took a sip of warm rice wine, cleared his throat, and showed off his tone-deaf singing voice.

"The sky is blue waiting for misty rain, and I am waiting for you."

Even if the lyrics are out of tune, they won't go anywhere.

Jay Chou was surprised, "Oh, not bad."

He said: "Just one sentence?"

Fang Zhuo swallowed and suddenly realized that the song had to be sung from the first line: "That, and more."

"The blue and white strokes outlined by the embryo are thicker and lighter, and the peony painted on the bottle is just like your first makeup."

"The sandalwood comes slowly through the window and I understand what's on my mind. The pen on the rice paper has been half-finished."

I sang these two lines twice, stumbling so hard that it was so out of tune that it was unbearable to watch.

Everyone in the box laughed. Good guy, you really dare to sing.

However, what is a music king?

The king of music can find the glittering gold in the garbage.

Jay Chou didn't smile, he was searching for the tune that Fang Zhuo was trying to show.

Seeing that the most professional people in the room were very serious, the others slowly became quiet.

"Let me give it a try, Mr. Fang, listen to it." Jay Chou paused and adopted the ridiculous statement he just heard, "Listen to see if it's the tune you dreamed about."

Fang Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.

Jay Chou didn't speak immediately, but he found the tune twice more and sang the first line - the blue and white strokes outlined by the plain embryo became thicker and lighter.

Hey, it feels comfortable, this is the smell.

It's obviously the same lyrics, but when they are sung by two people, they are completely different.

Before anyone else could express their surprise, Jay Chou said after singing two lines: "This song is very good, really, really. Mr. Fang, do you remember the other lyrics? Is that all?"

"I'll think about it later, and I'll try to remember as much as I can." Fang Zhuo regained his composure. Hearing the almost familiar singing from Jay Chou with his own ears, he felt a little relieved.

M1 has been struggling for so long, buying parts from all over the world, and going to program launch conferences to promote it, just to gain a foothold in the development of the next era.

In the past, this piece of meat was eaten by Apple's IPOD, and other manufacturers were in the soup. A big reason for this is not just that IPOD uses hard disk storage, but the combination of online music and offline products.

Users can purchase digital music through Apple's iTunes, and singers can also earn income through this platform. This forms a positive cycle, and many singers are proud to be on the iTunes rankings.

But there is no such condition in China. It is difficult to get meat just by relying on hardware.

How do consumers accept high-end positioning? How is the product marketed?

There are many ways to do this, but a golden song that can be sung for many years is undoubtedly particularly effective when carried by hardware.

"Blue and White Porcelain" will still hit the charts, but its official release is built into the M1 machine. As long as you buy a sky blue M1, you can listen to this song.

Although it cannot stop the copying and dissemination on the Internet after its release, "Azure", "M1" and "Blue and White Porcelain" are bundled together, which can bring immeasurable fame to M1.

After M1's high-end positioning can be firmly established, mid- to low-end products that are closer to domestic consumption levels can be rolled out across the country in large quantities.

This is a development model that Fang Zhuo considers that is in line with national conditions.

Counting the time, the company on the other side of the ocean is about to release a product. We are about to have a head-to-head confrontation to see how to allocate a piece of fat in the development wave of the times.
