Chapter 323 Secret Weapon

Although Lin Feng hopes to buy the copyright of the "wma audio format", Lin Feng does not have much hope for whether it can be purchased.

"Microsoft" has always been shrewd. When mp3 was popular, it developed this "wma audio format", which is enough to witness its ambition, but you can try it. If you can't buy it, you can cooperate at most. Lin Feng believes that "Microsoft" will never let go of this opportunity to make money. If he can win over the software empire of "Microsoft" as a partner, Lin Feng believes that "Phantom" will surely be ashamed in the United States.

However, "Microsoft" has always had a great appetite. How high will its conditions be?

Tan Zhi nodded, but without authorization from the Recording Association of America, "Phantom" would still be unable to open the market in the United States. This wma audio format is really helpful for other markets, but it still cannot solve key problems for the US market.

Lin Feng was also helpless with this question. The **** President of the Recording Association of America and Jobs are close friends. In order to help Jobs, they have refused to agree to authorize the "Phantom". Regarding this issue, even if Lin Feng puts it into law, it is useless. This is not a monopoly. The Recording Association refuses to authorize it, and no one can interfere.

Damn the Recording Association of America! ——Lin Feng cursed secretly, and suddenly had an idea.

"President Tan, the Recording Association of America refuses to authorize us. We can contact the International Recording Association. As long as the International Recording Association authorizes, we can provide downloads." Lin Feng said cunningly.

When Tan Zhi heard it, he shot his thighs continuously, which was a great idea. As long as the International Recording Association agrees, it is useless for the Recording Association of America to oppose it. What's more, providing downloads by themselves can also bring profits to all record companies. They have no reason to refuse.

"Boss, why don't we also sign an exclusive license agreement with the International Recording Association?" Tan Zhi suffered a big loss this time from the Recording Association of America. Now that he has the opportunity, he naturally wants to take revenge on Jobs and express his disgust.

Lin Feng was also quite moved at first. If he could counter the "Apple" in this area, it would undoubtedly help the "Phantom" seize the European market. He also thought of Jobs's expression after hearing about the International Recording Association's vacation license agreement. It's also extremely interesting. But after thinking about it, Lin Feng sighed helplessly.

"Mr. Tan, I think so too. Unfortunately, the International Recording Association will not agree." Lin Feng said helplessly.

"Maybe we give them enough profit, they may not agree to this kind of thing." Tan Zhi is really unwilling to give up, and all the profits in this world are the main thing, as long as he gives them enough profits, they may be tempted, and it may not be impossible to try. .

"Oh, it's impossible. The US government won't agree." Lin Feng said helplessly.

When Tan Zhi heard this, he was immediately depressed. Indeed, the U.S. government will not tolerate such idleness for its own companies, and will definitely put pressure on the International Recording Association, and the International Recording Association will definitely compromise at that time. No one can be blamed for this, but the United States is too strong and our country is still very weak. But Tan Zhi was really not reconciled.

Tan Zhi clenched his fists, really unwilling to fail this time. Jobs has calculated everything, waiting for him to jump in. Although the defeat was undisputed, Tan Zhi was not reconciled.

"Haha, Mr. Tan, rest assured, we will be able to avenge this hatred. This time I drag Jobs to Europe, and wait until we get the wma audio authorization, and then get the authorization from the International Recording Association, and then kill Jobs with a carbine, then At that time, I think his face must be very wonderful!" Lin Feng said with a smile.

Tan Zhi nodded, and the two laughed at the thought of the future of Jobs's face.

The next day, the headlines of all the newspapers were undoubtedly Lin Feng’s declaration of war on Jobs.

The Washington Times, which strongly criticized Lin Feng's prison break because of Lin Feng's investment filming last time, seems to be determined to fight Lin Feng. This time, with the headline of the Chinese kid challenging the American giant, the incident was reported lavishly.

In the United States, the word "boy" has a bit of contempt, and the addition of the word "American giant" is undoubtedly full of contempt for Lin Feng. Throughout the article, I criticized Lin Feng’s arrogance and self-righteousness, and constantly ridiculed Lin Feng’s "Phantom", which set a record of zero sales in the United States. Shamelessly provoke the "Apple" company and described Lin Feng as arrogant, ignorant and shameless. It is more asserted that the "Phantom" will be defeated again by the "ipod" in Europe.

One of the most exaggerated is that the Washington Times declared in the newspaper that Lin Feng looked down on the American national idol Britney Spears, saying that at the entire "ipod second generation" new product exhibition, Lin Feng had always been to Britney Spears from beginning to end. Ni was dismissive and extremely contemptuous.

This irresponsible report also directly made Lin Feng a public enemy of the United States again, and Britney Spears fans threatened to let Lin Feng roll out of the United States. Regarding this irresponsible report, Tan Zhi proposed to let Lin Feng put into law. Ron Law Firm also called and asked if Lin Feng needed their legal services, and promised that the Washington Times would publish an apology on the front page. statement.

auzw.com But Lin Feng gave up after thinking about it. This kind of lawsuit is unclear, and now when Britney Spears is officially hot in the United States, Lin Feng doesn't want to touch this mold now. After all, the fan's crazy Lin Feng is fully experienced. Otherwise, Audition’s All-Star lineup will not set a record of 100 million nights.

As for asking the Washington Times to publicly apologize on the front page, Lin Feng was quite moved. But not now, but in the future. When the "Phantom" defeats the "ipod", it is the best time for Washington to report and apologize.

The Washington Post still carefully analyzed the pros and cons of Lin Feng’s “Phantom” and “Apple”’s iPod with inherent rigor, frankly admitting that both have their pros and cons, and it is difficult to say in the European market who will gain an advantage. But in the end, the Washington Post still stood on Jobs's side, frankly saying that although the two companies' products have their own advantages and disadvantages, one has an advantage in price, and the other has an advantage in capacity, it is difficult to decide the winner and each will occupy their respective markets. However, the appearance of Britney Spears is the biggest change. The Washington Post said frankly that with Britney Spears' global influence, the "ipod" of "Apple" will win.

As for Jessica Alba, the spokesperson of the "Phantom", the Washington Post frankly said that Jessica is indeed very **** and beautiful, but her global popularity cannot be compared with Britney Spears. "Phantom" wants to rely on Jessica to defeat Britney Spears, which is undoubtedly idiotic.

Lin Feng sneered at the Washington Post's conclusion. If you don't take good care of yourself, just wait and see!

As for other American newspapers, the arguments are similar to those of the Washington Post and The Washington Times, either blindly favoring Jobs, or neutral, but relatively neutral. In short, all the media in the United States agree that this war in the European market will undoubtedly be the "Apple" of Jobs throughout his life. Even the American Bocai Group took the opportunity to make a bet: Jobs wins, 2 loses 1, and Lin Fengsheng loses 4. (Based on the final sales of "Phantom" and "ipod" in Europe.

Of course, this is not the case for all media. For example, Lin Feng’s own TV station "fsn-houston", director Terry asked Lin Feng whether it was "Phantom" advertising during the escape period. However, it was vetoed by Lin Feng. Now even with the amazing popularity of the upcoming jailbreak, "Phantom" advertising is useless. Until the authorization of the wma audio format and the authorization of the International Recording Association, the "Phantom" will not be available in the United States. There is a market. But this also reminded Lin Feng that jailbreaking was the biggest bargaining chip in his hands now, and he could use it to make an article.

At the moment, Lin Feng called Spielberg and told him that he hoped that he would add the "Phantom" to the TV series during the shooting. Regarding Lin Feng's request, Spielberg slapped his chest and promised that he would give Lin Feng a surprise. Of course, due to cost considerations, the first 8 episodes that have been filmed cannot be added, and the "Phantom" can only be added in the next 14 episodes.

With Spielberg's acknowledgment, Lin Feng nodded, this time he already has the best advertising platform. But Lin Feng was really puzzled about Britney Spears' grievances against him. I went in that day, and I didn’t say a word to Britney Spears from start to finish, and I didn’t even see her clearly. How did I offend her and make her so furious that I actually wanted to go to Europe for publicity to retaliate. Lin Feng was really puzzled.

But Jobs has Britney Spears, and he also has a secret "weapon". With a smile, Lin Feng came to Manhattan, New York, and arrived at the address that Avril had given him.

"Knock, knock, knock" Lin Feng knocked on the door.

However, no one responded, and Lin Feng called but shut down. Thinking of Avril’s habit, the habit of never opening the phone when writing songs or recording records, after thinking about it, Lin Feng had to wait for Avril to come back.

Fortunately, Lin Feng didn't wait long, and Avril returned with excitement.

"Hey, Lin, why are you here?" Avril was slightly startled when he saw Lin Feng, but she turned around and gave Lin Feng a hug with great excitement. At first glance, she knew that she was in a very good mood.

"Hi, Avril, what's the matter, I'm in such a good mood?" Lin Feng asked with a smile.

"Lin, hehe, thanks to you, I would not be able to record my record until next spring, and I have already recorded the last song today." Avril opened the door with excitement and greeted Lin Feng in.

It was the first time for Lin Feng to enter Avril's room, but it was really neat and tidy like all girls' rooms, except that Avril's room had many more records and various music scores with lyrics. Of course, Lin Feng's attention is not on this, but in Avril's words.

"Avril, did you say that your record has been finished?" Lin Feng said in surprise.

Avril was taken aback. He didn't expect Lin Feng to be happier than herself, but she was also extremely excited in her heart, nodding her head and her expression with a complacency.

"Hmph, the strength of this young lady is amazing. As long as this young lady has time, of course it will be soon!" Avril boasted, but she laughed after she finished speaking.

Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief, this is the best. Britney prepares to release a recent record, in conjunction with the sales of "ipod", this time let Avril also release a record to see who is better. In "history", the two have not released records at the same time. This is also avoided by most female singers of the queen class. First, direct conflicts are easy to offend people. Everyone is a queen, and they are not good on face. Second, there is no strong competitor, records. You can also sell a few more. But this time, history is about to be changed again.

Lin Feng sat down and stared at Avril with a serious face.

"Lin, what's the matter?" Under the influence of Lin Feng, Avril sat down and asked nervously although he didn't know what happened.

"Avel, are you afraid of Britney Spears?" Lin Feng asked.
