In the small office, twelve people were helpless and desperate.
On time, a man in a suit walked in.
"Everyone, have you packed up?"
Everyone looked at him with anger in their eyes. I believe that if there was no law, he might be beaten.
This made him a little nervous, and he quickly looked at the person in charge here.
"David, you know, this is the company's decision, and I am just an executor who conveys the order."
David is the bespectacled man in his thirties.
"Jon, we need an explanation. Our research is about to produce results. If we close it at this time, everything will be ruined."
Jon, the man in the suit, shook his head helplessly.
"Man, obviously the company has done an evaluation and your research project has no future."
Someone jumped out and shouted loudly.
"Our research can change history and bring about qualitative changes in the entire pop music industry."
Jon doesn't care about this.
"Guys, Avid is a software company, not an entertainment company. Damn it, whether the pop music industry changes or not is not the company's concern."
He also felt that these people were too noisy.
"Okay, the company's decision cannot be regretted. Now, on behalf of the company, I announce that your studio will be officially closed from today. In addition, you are all free. I hope you can have smooth sailing in the future and realize your ideals."
David breathed several times in succession, but it was difficult to calm down the anger and sadness in his heart.
But what can be done? Avid feels that their research is nonsense and is no longer willing to invest resources.
They have no choice but to disband.
"Excuse me, is Mr. Ryan David here?"
Just when the atmosphere in the office was tense, a clear voice came from the door.
When David heard this, he looked around and found that there were actually three Orientals, two men and one woman. But the young boy seemed to be the leader, how could one of them be so beautiful!
"I'm just asking, what's the matter with you guys?"
But at this moment, someone in the office suddenly shouted.
"Oh my god, it's Xiao, it's actually Xiao!"
After saying that, the man rushed out and ran all the way over.
"Xiao, I'm a fan of yours. I love your music so much. Damn it, I actually got to meet a real person!"
The ones who came were naturally Xiao Qian, Li Xiaohan, and Jing Qi.
She didn't expect to meet her fans in faraway London, and Xiao Qian was also surprised.
"Man, thank you so much for liking my music."
I hugged that guy and he was so happy that he almost fainted.
There were already a lot of worries and accidents, which made David very irritable.
"Edward, what are you talking about? And, who are you?"
The guy named Edward was very excited and introduced Xiao Qian.
"Damn it, David, you don't even know Xiao? My heart will go on, it's his work!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.
"My Heart Will Go On" is a divine song that is popular all over the world, and it will be remembered by the world along with the ship. No one thought that its producer would come to visit today.
David was also agitated and his attitude changed quickly.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Xiao. It's just that our place...it's...too chaotic. I didn't recognize you."
In fact, as soon as Edward talked about Xiao Qian's deeds, David connected the person with the work.
The things they develop are related to pop music, so they are naturally very concerned about the dynamics of the pop music industry. The producer of "my heart will go on" is a presence that cannot be ignored.
"It's okay, I came here in a hurry, I hope I didn't disturb you."
Xiao Qian didn't care and introduced Li Xiaohan and Jing Qi to David.
"Xiao, what's the matter with you coming here?"
Xiao Qian complained in her heart, "I'm fine. Will I find this place?"
"David, you know, I am a music producer. By chance, I saw the sibelius software you developed at a friend's place. Oh my God, this is really a genius design, which greatly solves the troubles of our producers.
.It’s just that sibelius only has an English version, and it’s not so easy for my Chinese colleagues to operate it. So I want to ask you for help if you can make a Chinese version of sibelius.”
Yes, the place Xiao Qian found was the birthplace of Sibelius, his office in London.
I heard that Xiao Qian likes to use sibelius, which made David and others very happy. But immediately, David's expression turned gloomy.
"Xiao, thank you very much for liking our software. It's just...that we can't fulfill your request."
Xiao Qian looked around, feeling a little nervous.
"Why?"
David smiled bitterly and sounded sad.
"Following the company's instructions, our office will be disbanded today. In other words, Sibelius will soon become history."
"what?"
Xiao Qian was really frightened.
Sibelius has always been the top software in the industry. Could it be that history has changed and it is going to be finished?
But the surprise only lasted for a moment, and his heart immediately became excited.
What a God-given opportunity!
Asking sibelius to help make a Chinese version is just a pretense.
If he really wanted to make a Chinese version, Xiao Qian could find a team to do it at home, so why bother traveling all the way to London?
His purpose was originally for Sibelius.
Now that Sibelius is about to be shut down, it has become easier for him.
"I have to say that your company really made an unforgivable mistake."
Facing outsiders' comments, Jon couldn't bear to listen.
"Mr. Xiao from the East, don't you think it is very rude to comment on other people's decisions?"
"This is..."
David introduced him, and Xiao Qian immediately understood that this was the real owner.
"Mr. Jon, I'm just telling the truth. Of course, as an outsider, I am not qualified to interfere with your company's decisions. But I sincerely feel that Sibelius is a great invention. If it disappears, it will be a huge disaster.
The loss. I wonder if there is any way to save it?"
Jon is a businessman, and as a businessman you will have certain thoughts.
"Okay, I forgive your offense. If Mr. Xiao really likes Sibelius, how about taking over Sibelius's business? Anyway, our company has decided to close the office here, and David and others are considered unemployed. If Mr. Xiao is willing to acquire
If so, then Sibelius will be yours."
Isn't this what Xiao Qian wants?
“Can I acquire the rights and business of sibelius?”
Jon held his head high and seemed to be doing a good thing that was extremely beneficial to the company.
"Of course, Avid originally planned to sell Sibelius' business and is currently looking for a suitable buyer. If Mr. Xiao can afford the acquisition fee of five million US dollars, then Sibelius can be transferred to you."
Five million dollars can buy Sibelius. Xiao Qian looks calm on the outside, but is already laughing like crazy on the inside.
"Okay, I'll pay for this."
He didn't play any hard-to-get tricks, he was very happy.
This opportunity is really rare. If you don't seize it quickly, something may happen.
After Avid closed Sibelius' office in his previous life, it was acquired by Steinberg not long after.
Steinberg is a big boss in the field of music software. If Steinberg really launches an offensive against Sibelius, Xiao Qian may not be able to compete with others even if he has money.
What I haven’t said yet is to strike first.
"Mr. Xiao really intends to acquire Sibelius?"
Jon was shocked. He didn't expect Xiao Qian to be so happy. Five million dollars seemed like water.
But then he was overjoyed.
Avid decided to close Sibelius's office. This product will inevitably become a liability and it will definitely have to find a way to sell it off.
Now it has been sold for a good price through his handiwork, and it will be a great achievement for him when it comes back to the company.
Xiao Qian waved, took the transfer check from the secretary, swiped it a few times and wrote it.
"Mr. Jon, can we sign the contract?"
Jon, David and others were all dumbfounded.
Did he meet a mysterious tycoon from the East?
But no matter what, the check is real and cannot be deceived.
Not wanting to delay for a moment, Jon quickly called the headquarters, quickly applied for authorization, and then directly used the printer in the Sibelius office to print the contract.
Today, right here, the contract must be signed.
When he comes back with a check for five million dollars, he will definitely be praised.
