In fact, if you take a closer look, the five people at the dinner table are basically in an international style.
It can be said that only those who are in the same circle have the opportunity to sit together.
Needless to say, Ye Ming is an international superstar who has a very high reputation in Hollywood, and his influence in Hollywood is also very huge.
As for the Japanese artists Kitano Takeshi, Watanabe Ken, Koyuki and Kuriyama Chiaki who are accompanying me, these people can be considered relatively famous international stars in Japan.
Therefore, the entertainment industry is actually a circle. Only people in a circle can usually talk and play together. If it is not a circle, unless the relationship is particularly good, it will be difficult to play together.
of.
But for such a thing, in fact, even at this time, everyone is taking the international route. Speaking of Kato Koyuki and Kuriyama Chiaki, these two are relatively low-profile, that is, they are considered superstars in Japan and they are only international stars.
As for in Hollywood, two people like Kato Koyuki and Kuriyama Chiaki are considered character actors at most. In other words, when American movies need a Japanese character, this type of character is
Only then do I think of them both.
If it were at other times, it would be impossible to say that Kato Koyuki and Kuriyama Chiaki had a huge influence in Hollywood.
This can be seen from their works. The two of them are basically supported by one or two internationally famous works. They can be regarded as international stars in Japan, but they cannot be regarded as superstars.
At this time, Kitano Takeshi began to ask his own questions: "Mr. Ye, I have been observing the development of the entertainment industry. Judging from the development trends in the past two years, it seems that records, movies, etc.
of.
These have started to go downhill rapidly.
I have observed that the current entertainment industry can be said to be in an Internet era, and some older foreigners have begun to be a little out of touch with the times.
Those who are older are basically not able to accept the thinking factor of the Internet, so they have begun to fall behind, and if they do not change, this backward trend will become more and more common.
What do you think about such a thing?"
In fact, such a question was an important reason why Kitano Takeshi and others invited Ye Ming so cautiously and entertained him so grandly.
After all, Ye Ming is a very popular guy in the entertainment industry, and he is also one of the biggest in the Internet market. He is quite a great master.
Therefore, if I want to ask Ye Ming such a question, I should ask a professional person for a professional question.
At this time, Ye Ming said without thinking: "There is no doubt about this. It is obvious that now is an Internet era, and in the future, it will be an Internet era. The Internet will enter thousands of households.
Now, Apple has released a smartphone. I think you should also know that smartphones will have a huge impact on the market. Do you know what the emergence of smartphones represents?
Ye Ming asked such a question. What about the other four people present? They felt confused for a while. What does the appearance of smartphones mean?
I don’t seem to know about this. I really don’t know. Although these four people are very prosperous in the entertainment industry, they are also on business trips to some extent.
This is not a problem in the entertainment industry. It can be said that it is fundamentally a high-tech problem, a problem in the high-tech circle.
It's hard to answer business questions, and it won't be easy to answer tomorrow. These two people have been thinking about the answer to this question. However, the two of them thought of one or two answers, but they didn't dare to answer.
Because it would be embarrassing if the answer was wrong, so at this moment Biewu secretly winked at Kuriyama Chiaki.
In fact, the meaning of doing business at this time is very obvious. Let Chiaki Kuriyama answer this question. After all, Chiaki Kuriyama is just a child.
In the eyes of a few people, Chiaki Kuriyama is just a child or a junior.
Therefore, in such a situation, if a junior answers this question, there is nothing to be ashamed of even if the answer is wrong. After all, he is a child?
You can forgive the child for giving the wrong answer. Although Chiaki Kuriyama is a relatively cold and beautiful girl, after all, there are times when she can show off.
Just like Chiaki Kuriyama, who is now cute and cute, he asked directly: "Mr. Ye, at this time, what do smartphones represent? Is there any difference between smartphones and other mobile phones?
I don’t think there’s anything other than the higher price. It seems that the main products in the mobile phone market now are Nokia and Motorola phones.”
It is true that at this time, the representatives of mobile phones are still mobile phone giants such as Nokia and Motorola. However, the time for Apple mobile phones to truly take the world by storm has almost arrived.
It can be said that Apple’s mobile phone has redefined mobile phones with its own high technology. Nowadays, few people can clearly see the impact that smartphones have on the entire society.
Even Jobs himself didn't necessarily think of the huge impact that the smartphones he launched would have on society as a whole.
Not to mention the people like Kitano Takeuriyama Chiaki and others in front of me.
Therefore, it was not surprising to Ye Ming that Kuriyama Chiaki asked such a question at this time.
Apple mobile phones can no longer be simply described as a mobile phone product.
At this time, Ye Ming said with a smile: "Actually, you must have never imagined what kind of impact smartphones will have on everyone.
What about the Apple mobile phone? A real smartphone was launched in January this year, and it will be officially launched on June 29. This is an epoch-making reform.
At least in the history of mobile phones, this is an epoch-making reform. Maybe you can't feel this as I said. I have a trial machine here, which is an Apple trial machine, which means that Apple gives it to some customers.
of some mobile phones.
I also have some shares in Apple, so Mr. Jobs gave me some Apple phones to try out.
You can feel what kind of changes this smartphone will bring to this era."
After saying that, Ye Ming took out his iPhone and showed it to Takeshi Kitano first.
There is no doubt that Apple's trial machine is not available to everyone. However, Ye Ming is a shareholder of Apple and a social celebrity, so he has such qualifications.
Of course, Takeshi Kitano is the highest-status Japanese in this place, so he needs to show Takeshi Kitano first.
Takeshi Kitano picked up the phone and looked curious as he studied what was said to be a new type of phone.
It seems like it should be called a smartphone.
Is it a science fiction movie?
At this time, when Ye Ming sent it over, he had already switched it to Japanese mode, so Kitano Takeshi didn't seem to have any trouble at all.
Ye Ming explained on the side: "With this mobile phone, you can listen to songs, watch movies and cartoons, upload files and process some files.
It can be said that this smartphone, except that it does not have a keyboard, is not much different from our current laptops.
So now you think about it, a smart phone like this can put a computer in your pocket at any time. What a huge impact the emergence of such a phone will have on our society.
At that time, you can watch movies with your mobile phone. Listen to me, MP3 has already had a huge impact on the record industry.
So at this time, once this kind of smartphone can no longer listen to music and watch MTV, it can also watch movies, just like a portable small computer.
You think the response to such a smartphone would have a huge impact on the entire entertainment industry.
In fact, for example, Ayumi Hamasaki's record sales should be ranked No. 1 among female singers. I think it is impossible for any female singer to break this record in the future.
Because of the emergence of smartphones, records have become unimportant, right? In fact, the overall record industry has already seen a sunset trend. The emergence of smartphones is just the last straw that crushed the record industry.
Therefore, Hamasaki has caught up with the golden age, the golden age of the record industry.
Or it can be said to be the last glory of the record industry.
It is even said that the film and television majors will be shuffled because of this, and video websites will develop rapidly by then.
Therefore, the impact of smartphones on the film and television industry is very huge, which you can’t imagine. When Apple mobile phones are actually launched on the market, you will know how powerful smartphones are.
Didn’t I just say that? Motorola, Nokia, etc. are considered the giants in mobile phones, but I can tell you that the one that can really defeat these two giants is Apple.
The emergence of Apple's smartphones will inevitably lead the trend of an era, which is a disruptive breakthrough for mobile phones.
You know, in the future, the entertainment industry market should be transformed to the Internet. I am not saying that entities are not important, but I am saying that a considerable part of the business will be transferred to the Internet.
Cinemas, of course, are equally important. After all, cinemas are an important place for communication and will not disappear. However, a considerable number of things in the entertainment industry will be completed on the Internet.
I have already made a certain layout in our Huaxia and acquired theater chains. At that time, I wanted to give the original to Yang Xi, and now I have acquired it again and made a certain layout.
Not to mention the Internet, as for video websites, we have now become the leader in China.
However, I think this is not enough. In the future, we must do better.
In fact, this is the case in China, and it should be the same in Japan. You should pay attention to the Internet."
Takeshi Kitano is not an ignorant person. When he saw the power of smartphones, he sighed and said: "Sure enough, there are talents who have emerged from generation to generation, and each has been leading the way for hundreds of years.
The emergence of smartphones should have a disruptive impact on the entertainment industry. Take a look, this smartphone is actually like a small computer. This was simply unimaginable before."
Kitano Takeshi is also an exquisite person. He has truly experienced a smartphone and knows what kind of disruptive thing it is.
As for the first-generation iPhone, although its functions and effects may be a little bit better than those of the younger generations of Apple, that only means that it has a few flaws compared to the smartphones that will gradually develop in the future.
As for now, the Apple mobile phone has become a truly subversive understanding. Seeing that the mobile phone can not only listen to music and watch movies, but also process various files, this is simply a subversive understanding.
Everything that can be done on a computer can be done on this phone, except that it has no keyboard and is almost the same as a small computer.
In fact, everyone knows very well that it is nothing without a keyboard, and it is not difficult to equip this kind of smartphone with a wireless keyboard.
Watanabe Ken operated the Apple mobile phone himself but remained silent. He knew what kind of impact this mobile phone would have on the entertainment industry.
This is truly a disruptive understanding.
It's the same as facing a future technological product.
Originally, at this time, when they came to Ye Ming, they wanted him to come up with an idea to help the Japanese entertainment industry pay attention to how they could deal with some of the unhealthy trends in the Japanese entertainment industry.
.
But he didn't expect to encounter such a situation before the dinner. They also knew about the smartphone. Apple had released a smartphone and they knew that Apple's smartphone would be on sale soon.
However, they think it's just a new mobile phone and don't care much about it at all.
Not many people actually cared about it at the time, so there was nothing surprising about it.
But after actually using this smartphone, they discovered that Apple's smartphone was truly a disruptive era of mobile phones.
Ken Watanabe experienced it and said helplessly: "Such a mobile phone will really have a huge impact on Motorola and Nokia. Sure enough, the times are developing and technology is advancing. You never know when a mobile phone will appear.
Products you never imagined.
I never thought that a small mobile phone would have such a big impact on the entertainment industry.
Mr. Ye, your video website is really on the right track. You have been looking for it for so many years, but you don’t know if the video website would exist today?”
Huihui.com Japan Station is the largest video website in Japan. It is even said that Huihui.com is the largest video website in the world.
Ye Ming shook his head and said very calmly: "That's not true. At that time, I just researched some technologies. I thought I could give it a try, so I started doing it. I just left earlier than others.
It’s such a step, but actually there’s nothing too remarkable about it.”
I did it on purpose, but I couldn't say that in front of everyone, as it would be a source of hatred for myself.
