That night, Li Mu spent half the night listening to Zhang Kexuan's longing in the living room of Zhang Kexuan's luxurious third-bedroom apartment.
Zhang Kexuan regarded Li Mu as a beacon in his life, while Li Mu regarded him and Simple Plan as his own experimental field.
The best situation is to use the good songs of later generations and the upcoming Eting to make Simple Plan popular, and then use Simple Plan to promote Eting, so that Eting can become a music portal that can create stars on the Internet, with room for future development. It's huge. In this way, he has two choices: join everyone in piracy and wait to be acquired by a big platform at a high price, or he can transform himself and build his own platform after accumulating enough strength.
The two of them each thought about their own ideals, and went back to their rooms to rest in the middle of the night.
At around nine o'clock the next morning, Ye Tianming and the three of them came to the door. They each stood up with a pair of panda eyes. Ye Tianming took out a bank card and handed it to Li Mu.
"Brother Mu, one hundred thousand dollars is in there. The password is 123321. Kexuan, I'll cover your share for you."
Li Mu nodded and took the bank card: "Which of you has time? Would you like to drive with me to do some errands?"
"Me." Ye Tianming raised his hand: "I drove here."
"That's okay." Li Mu smiled and said, "I'll have to trouble you for a while longer. Are you okay?"
"It's okay." Ye Tianming said cheerfully: "If you are anxious, let's leave now."
"Sure." Li Mu was not polite and said to the other three people: "I will go back to Haizhou after finishing my work today. You should hurry up and rehearse "Sunflower" these days. In addition, you must remember one thing, no matter who you are at this time If I come to you, please don’t agree to record a single.”
"Why?" Zhang Kexuan was very curious.
He is thinking about recording a single. Although "Li Bai" has been performed in public, currently technically speaking, there is only a live version of "Li Bai" and there is no real recorded version. The effect will naturally be worse. The recorded version Some other instruments will be added, recorded repeatedly to avoid any mistakes, and post-processing will be done to perfection.
Li Mu said: "If a record company records a single for you, they will definitely ask you to sign a contract first. If a regular website, studio, or recording studio records a single for you, they will definitely put your songs online for promotion in advance. You should avoid these two points now. After I build the music website in the future, I will personally supervise it for you. Then we will work together to record the most perfect effect."
"Okay!" Several people completely obeyed Li Mu's instructions on this issue.
Later, Li Mu took Ye Tianming's crown to a company that operates servers in Jinling and purchased two very high-end servers. Then he took the servers to a server hosting company. After selecting the bandwidth, he completed the hosting of the servers. .
For the forum, one server is enough, but for Eting, it will host a large number of users in the future. Whether it is the number of servers, processing power, space, or bandwidth, the demand is very huge. However, Eting has not yet developed one. The server is sufficient to support the initial stage of launch. Additional servers can be added later if needed.
While Li Mu was handling server matters, Chen Wan called and asked when she would return to Haizhou. Li Mu made an appointment with her on the time and place to meet. After finishing his work, he took Ye Tianming's car and rushed over to meet Chen Wan.
In the car, Li Mu asked Ye Tianming: "Tianming, I heard that your family is engaged in real estate. Do you have any office buildings that you rent out?"
"Yes." Ye Tianming blurted out: "There is a commercial building run by my dad himself. The ground floor is commercial, and the second to sixteenth floors are offices. The current occupancy rate is less than 80%, and there are many vacancies. You What do you want?"
"Sixty or seventy square meters is enough." Li Mu smiled and said, "Please help me keep an eye on it. If it's suitable, I'll rent one."
"You can just use it." Ye Tianming said cheerfully: "Why should we still use this little money?"
"Don't." Li Mu said: "It's not your own property, so it's better to figure it out clearly, lest your dad thinks that the friends you make are all taken advantage of. Just help me pay attention. Then I will take charge of this with your dad." people signed up.”
Ye Tianming glanced at Li Mu and saw that he was not joking at all, so he became serious and said: "I will call you later to ask about the workplace. However, if you rent a workplace to build a music website, of course the rent It has to be calculated, but the logic of this payment is: the four of us will pay to my dad’s company. Don’t forget that we reached an agreement at the beginning. You give us songs and help us build popularity. We will handle the music website. Four people contribute effort and money.”
Li Mu nodded slightly and said with a smile: "In that case, I won't say anything more. Thank you for your hard work."
"You're welcome!" For Ye Tianming and Zhang Kexuan, facing yesterday's performance that shocked the entire audience, the four of them have already regarded Li Mu as a god in their hearts. Music is the belief of the four of them. Once Li Mu can continue to believe in To help them with their problems, the money problem is the smallest problem.
Although the four people from Simple Plan have taken over the funding issues needed for Eting in the future, Li Mu is still not at ease right now. He has to develop Eting and also develop a forum. The forum is easy to solve. You can buy a ready-made forum template and code, and then Just apply and modify it, but the development of Eting requires starting from scratch.
Today’s websites are basically not beautiful at all. The modularity of the pages is very rigid. There is almost no concept of layout and no consideration of beauty and user experience. Li Mu wants to make Eting the best music listening and downloading website. All this must be done Have forward thinking ideas.
As a result, the huge workload is too difficult for him to complete alone. On the basis of the development framework he has provided, he must recruit at least two to three technical staff who write code, an artist, and a person who can be responsible for server and testing. Engineer at work.
This kind of talent is difficult to find in Haizhou, and Jinling's hopes are higher, so Li Mu entrusted four people from Simple Plan to help him search for some resumes that meet the requirements in the talent market these days.
…
Seeing Chen Wan, Li Mu said goodbye to Ye Tianming and got into the cab of Chen Wan's Audi, with Chen Wan sitting in the passenger seat.
After driving out of the city, Chen Wan next to her said to Li Mu, "I may be going to Shanghai in a few days."
"Oh?" Li Mu asked curiously: "Isn't it too early to leave school? Why are you going to Shanghai?"
Chen Wan said with some disappointment: "A friend of my dad introduced me to an opportunity to work as a summer intern at Shanghai Satellite TV for a month."
"That's not bad."
Shanghai Satellite TV, which will be Oriental Satellite TV in the future, is also ranked relatively high among local satellite TVs. Li Mu then smiled and said: "Shanghai Satellite TV is also the first-class domestic satellite TV station. If you can work there in the future, your future will be brighter." It’s immeasurable.”
Chen Wan curled her lips: "Impossible, it's too difficult to get into Shanghai Satellite TV, and it's hard to get ahead. My dad wants me to go to Shanghai Satellite TV to learn some experience first, and wait until I can do an internship in the second half of my senior year. , sent me to Nansu Satellite TV, he has a good buddy in there, he seems to be at a pretty high level, he can help me solve the internship problem, and also solve the staffing problem after graduation."
Li Mu thought about it. In her last life, Chen Wan joined Nansu Satellite TV. In the end, she died due to an accident. Li Mu didn't know who her future husband would be, but Li Mu felt that if Chen Wan did not change her life path, Maybe she will meet that unknown man again.
"There seems to be no development at Nansu Satellite TV." Li Mu's tone was a little less optimistic.
Chen Wan asked: "Really? Nowadays, the local TV stations seem to be about the same, and only the Southern Hunan TV stations are better."
Li Mu then said: "Then find a way to go to Xiangnan Satellite TV."
After all, it is the Mango Channel that will unify the satellite channels in the future, and the opportunities are great. If Chen Wan can develop there, it should be good.
Chen Wan was not very confident: "I don't know anyone in Xiangnan, so it doesn't matter. Can I just come in when the satellite TV station says I can?"
Li Mu looked indifferent: "There's still a year left, why are you so anxious?"
"That's true." Chen Wan shrugged: "But when I go to Shanghai this time, you won't be able to see me for a while."
Before Li Mu could speak, Chen Wan continued with a disappointed look on his face: "It seems that by the end of August you should go to college."
By then, one was in Yanjing and the other was in Shanghai. Chen Wan suddenly felt even more disappointed.
Li Mu comforted him with a smile: "I can meet whenever I want, and the plane ticket doesn't seem to be expensive, right?"
Chen Wan was originally a rich second generation, and Li Mu was now a wealthy man with hundreds of thousands of dollars in wealth. Air tickets, which were still very expensive in the eyes of ordinary people, were nothing to the two of them.
"Then it's settled!" Chen Wan said immediately: "You will be so familiar with Yanjing when you arrive. When I go there, you will be my tour guide and accompany me throughout the journey."
Li Mu nodded and smiled: "I will make sure you feel at home when the time comes."
