There was a lot of chaos in the huge conference room. The heads of the marketing department, planning department, and marketing department held their own opinions.
As the music director, John Burns sat on the side without saying a word. Anyway, he said what he should say. As for how the company does it, it is the general manager's business. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at the general manager sitting above. Manager Richard Bruce, who has always been decisive, now frowned and leaned back in his chair, as if ignoring the quarrel in the conference room, holding his head up to make a decision.
It is indeed a problem, John said in his heart, there is no doubt that the child has great potential, but this time the conditions are a bit harsh, but then again, as long as the benefits are huge, it depends on Richard's decision. From his own point of view, he really hoped that the company would agree.
At this time, the door of the conference room was pushed open, and the secretary appeared at the door. Richard, who was looking at him nervously, said, "Mr. General Manager, Mr. Eisner is here."
The meeting room that was still noisy immediately quieted down. About two seconds later, Richard jumped up: "Clean up the meeting room! Keep quiet, I'll pick up Mr. Eisner."
As he said that, he ran out in a hurry, and the heads of various departments also hurriedly moved, collected the scattered materials, emptied the soot, and sprayed some air freshener with a paper fan.
Richard came back soon. Behind him was the CEO of the head office, Michael Eisner. He walked to Richard's place without saying a word, glanced at everyone, and then knocked The table said: "Gentlemen and ladies, I am very disappointed. The next EP request for Miss Mason has been sent to you in a few days, but you are still discussing it, or are you planning to continue the discussion?"
The heads of the departments looked at each other and didn't speak. After a few seconds, Richard, who was sitting next to Eisner, said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Chairman, we are deadlocked on a question now, Miss Mason. It is required that this EP is pure music. After the release, if the number of releases of the previous EP can be reached, we will sign an album contract with us. You know, pure music records have never been as popular as popular music. 1 There are very few platinum pure music records, let alone the 5-platinum sales of the last EP, and Miss Mason can only sign one record per record because of her age, which is not good for the company.”
Eisner put his hands together and nodded, thought for a while, then pointed to Sam Ritchie in the marketing department on his left and said, "Mr. Don't miss a word."
Richie nodded, opened the information in his hand and said, "Mr. Chairman, the record for the highest sales volume of pure music albums is 3 platinum. Although we used various methods to make Miss Mason's popularity quite high when we released the EP last time, but Relying on this, it is still impossible to reach 500 gold, and an EP can contain up to 5 songs, and there may be less pure music, so I am afraid that it will not even reach 1 platinum."
Next is Ms. Juliet Richter from the Marketing Department: "I agree with Richie, the audience for pure music is too small, Miss Mason has accumulated a lot of popularity in the last EP, and I am afraid that at least half of the pure music EP will be lost. , it’s more than worth the loss.”
However, Erwin Wood of the Planning Department objected: "Miss Mason's image has always been full of mystery. As long as all parties cooperate with publicity, it is absolutely possible to reach 1 platinum sales. We can discuss this issue with Miss Mason to communicate."
The heads of the next few departments all said the same thing. The problem is mainly focused on the small audience and narrow scope of pure music records. If the distribution work is not done well, a lot of popularity will be lost, and Miss Mason cannot sign a long-term contract. The condition is reduced to 1 platinum sales, but it has lost popularity, and it is unknown how much the album can sell.
Eisner pinched the bridge of his nose and looked at the music director beside him: "John, what do you think?"
"Mine?" John shrugged. "From my point of view, I would be desperate to keep her! Her musical potential is unprecedented, I can tell you that for sure, Eisner, you Have you ever seen a kid who can write their own songs at the age of 11? And I can tell you, Eisner, Miss Mason's piano certificate is an amateur grade 8, but in fact she should have a professional grade 8, she really is a genius."
Eisner was silent, thinking about the results of the secret investigation of Angela and George's report on the little girl's surprising idea at the birthday party, and finally tapped the table again: "Then promise. She, of course, has to drop to 1 platinum, or the less the better."
Then he looked at Richard: "Richard, I hope that next time there is a similar situation, I can't decide and report it to the head office immediately, instead of asking me to rush over from Burbank again!"
"The airship to Northrend is about to set sail, and I'm wiping my weapon with some uncertainty—not for my impending fate, but for this damn airship, who knows when the goblins will explode— Hopefully not in the middle of the endless sea.
Most of the companions were noisy in the bar of the airship, venting their emotions. The two guys, Ander Clefthoof and Germon Spirits, were drinking as usual, while their pets, the white bear Kermi and the lion, Bang also twisted and greeted each other like their masters, and sure enough, if there is a master, there must be a favor.
But in any case, it's better than Rim Steel Axe and Derek Aguilar, the two muscle-headed idiots. Those two guys are an orc and a human. The Titans know how they both like to deal with wrenches. Question, or are fighters like this
There are three companions in her room, one is the night elf Eudilia Nocturne, her favorite thing to do in the middle of the trip is to return to the Emerald Dream, well, I admit that as a human I really can't understand Emerald The meaning of the dream, but she was really speechless about her lazy behavior.
The other is the blood elf Tarian Morrowind. In fact, as long as he rests on the way, he will stay far away from everyone. The reason is that he is afraid that the addiction will come and he will suck everyone up if he cannot control himself. People's goodwill, including Eudilia Nocturne, must know that they had a solid fight when they first met.
For the last one, my feelings are the most complicated. As a member of the Forsaken, Barack is an undead, so every time I meet, I have to hold back the idea of purifying him with the Holy Light, and Barack seems to know this, But he never said it, just kept his distance from me during the break.
I remember that when I was in the Eastern Plaguelands, Lord Fordring once told us that race does not represent glory, so I must have my persistence, as a Paladin. "
Angela dropped the pen, leaned back on the chair and stretched out, and then very unladylike put her bare feet on the desk, closed her eyes slightly and enjoyed the May breeze, summer has been unknowingly down.
After resting for a while, Angela sat up straight again and began to examine her beginning. It was very bad. This is her comment to herself. Is this her own original work? She thought so, writing a novel in the background of "Warcraft", oh, to be precise, "World of Warcraft" as the background is her whim.
The reason for the whim is thanks to Edward's SNES. This game console has now completed its obligations, lying quietly in the cabinet under the bed. For a guy who is used to playing 3D games, 16-bit The game really doesn't interest her, and her gaming skills are really bad. After all, when the previous console was first released, it was impossible to have money to buy it, so these kinds of games were cracked and played on the computer after the popularization of computers. Does it take time to study if there is a cheating device in hand
And now there are not many cheats to use, so for a guy who can play "Contra" in just 30 seconds to GAME_OVER, this is really not very attractive, so he quickly threw it aside, and just received it at this time. A letter from Aunt Rowling, so the idea of writing original novels based on the game background kept popping up in my head - well, or semi-original.
This job is not so easy to do. As far as the little guy who plagiarized his experience, the easiest thing is the tune. As long as she remembers a certain section, she can recall the whole, and then the lyrics. Similarly, as long as she remembers a section, she It can also be recalled slowly - don't think that 8 years of otaku life is in vain.
The script is very difficult, you can only remember the general plot and some details, you need to repair and add it yourself, but writing novels with a game background is no longer in the category of plagiarism, you must know that there are pictures, characters and various actions in the head, but not It must be able to be expressed in words. Once there are pictures and scenes but cannot be written, it will be very painful (personal experience T-T).
"Oh, I also plan to write "Silent Hill" and "Resident Evil" into novels, and then let the game company buy it, but now I can't even write a novel based on the mission of "World of Warcraft", and I still What a failure, how can I write an original script in the future." Angela sighed while looking at her script.
Look at the time, it's dinner time, the parents are going to a charity dinner tonight, only she and Jennifer are at home, so don't wait for the housekeeper to urge the little girl to put down the pen and paper, put on her shoes, and mumble. went upstairs.
