The next day, Su Wenhai and Suma Sato accompanied the two beauties to go shopping, while Chen Tianliao took Neijiang to visit a singer in Xiangjiang.

This singer is actually a native of Chang'an, and he is also from the background of singing folk songs. Later, with her boyfriend who sang rock and roll, she went to the capital together, became Jingpiao, and got to know Huang Yi. Later, because her boyfriend was messing with other women, she sadly went to Yangcheng to work, and later was taken by a musician from Xiangjiang, brought to Xiangjiang, signed a contract with Xiangjiang's Times Record Company, and mixed in the music scene. This trajectory is a little similar to Faye Wong in her previous life, but unlike Faye Wong, she did not get out in the Xiangjiang music scene. If it weren't for Huang Yi accidentally remembering this person when he said goodbye to Huang Yi this time, Chen Tianliao probably wouldn't know that there was such a number one person in the Xiangjiang music scene.

Before the car drove to an ordinary residential area on the border of the 9LC District and Kwun Tong District, Chen Tianliao negotiated with the doorman, who talked to the other party on the phone and put them in without too much questioning. Of course, the big brother on Chen Tianliao's waist also played a big role. In these years, the people who can afford to use Xiangjiang are all people with a certain status.

Chen Tianliao quickly took Nei Jiang to the door of a room on the seventh floor and pressed the doorbell. The wooden door inside opened, and a beautiful woman with a goose egg face appeared in front of it.

"Hello, you are Sister Shu Ting, right? I am Sister Yi's partner Chen Tianliao. This is my bodyguard, Mr. Neijiang. ”

The beautiful woman was overjoyed, hurriedly opened the iron gate of the anti-theft outside, and said with a smile: "Please come in, please come in! You are the first mainland compatriot to come to Xiangjiang for so long!"

Chen Tianliao entered the door, and he could see that this house was relatively small, and the living room was only fifteen or sixteen square meters, basically putting a row of sofas, a coffee table, and a TV, and there was no space. But the room was cleaned up quite neatly and cleanly. The winter sunlight shines through the bright glass windows outside, making people feel a little warmer. Unfortunately, like many houses in Xiangjiang, there are no balconies here.

Shu Ting closed the door, turned around, and said embarrassedly: "The houses of the common people in Xiangjiang are like this, they are not big, and they can't afford to build balconies, and the land in Xiangjiang is too expensive." Please take a seat, I just made tea. ”

Chen Tianliao smiled as he sat down: "It's okay, I'm a little kid, you don't have to be too polite." ”

Shu Ting looked at Chen Tianliao's face, smiled kindly, and said, "You don't have to be polite. I don't have any guests here. If you can come, you will be my honored guest. And it's also a distinguished guest from my hometown. ”

Hearing this, Chen Tianliao looked at Shu Ting's face. Her face still seemed to be so kind, as if the trace of choking that Chen Tianliao had just heard from her words was an illusion. But Chen Tianliao was sure that he really heard Shu Ting choke up.

At this time, Shu Ting had already poured tea into the teacup, held it with both hands, and handed it to Chen Tianliao. Chen Tianliao was flattered, hurriedly took it with both hands, put the teacup to his mouth, took a sip lightly, and said, "Good tea, it's so fragrant! This should be Shaanxi Qing, right?"

Shu Ting said while handing tea to Neijiang: "Yes." This is exactly the green tea of our hometown. I also brought it with me when I came to Xiangjiang. ”

Chen Tianliao hurriedly said: "I deserve such a precious tea." ”

Shu Ting smiled: "It's just ordinary Shaanxi Qing, nothing precious." I will also return to my hometown next month to settle down, so I don't need to take this tea back with me. ”

Chen Tianliao was stunned: "Are you going back to develop?"

Shu Ting nodded and said, "Yes, Xiangjiang is not suitable for me." Two days ago, the company terminated the contract with me. I'm pretty light now. ”

Chen Tianliao opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.

Shu Ting smiled, picked up the teacup in front of her, dipped her lips lightly, put down the teacup again, and said, "I heard that you are going to open a record company in Xiangjiang?"

Chen Tianliao nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Shu Ting shook her head and said, "I don't really approve of you doing this. The market in Xiangjiang is too small and very xenophobic. If you are a Western company, it is fine, and the people of Xiangjiang are a little soft in the face of Western companies. The Japanese people are also okay. Not so for people elsewhere. The mainland and the treasure island are the same. ”

Chen Tianliao disagreed, Xiangjiang was still on the rise at this time, although it was already at the end of the strong crossbow, it was not xenophobic.

Speaking of the treasure island singer, Chen Tianliao suddenly remembered some anecdotes from his previous life. From it, we can see some characteristics of the Xiangjiang music scene. Among them, the development of the four heavenly kings of Baodao in Xiangjiang is worth mentioning. In Treasure Island, Wang Jie, Qi Qin, Zhou Huajian and Tong Ange are known as the four heavenly kings of Treasure Island. Their singing skills are all above the three kings of the four kings of Xiangjiang except for Jacky Cheung, and except for Zhou Huajian, the other three are singer-songwriters and have created many excellent works. It's just that Xiangjiang's entertainment business operation is more mature, which makes the reputation of the Four Heavenly Kings of Xiangjiang overshadow these treasure island singers.

The four heavenly kings of the treasure island have all made efforts to develop Xiangjiang in the past. The one who went the farthest was Wang Jie. Speaking of which, Wang Jie was originally from Chang'an, but when he was 3 years old, he came to Xiangjiang with his father and is considered a native of Xiangjiang. He followed his father to make a lot of movies and was born as a child star. But his parents divorced when he was 12 years old, and he was abandoned by both parties, and he has been working hard at the bottom of society and has done many different jobs. Later, he wrote a song and wanted to find a company to be a singer, but when others saw that he was a dragon and tiger martial artist who was a stuntman, they immediately refused. So Wang Jie transferred to Baodao in 1987 and became a Baodao singer. He developed very well on Treasure Island, and was known as the lone eagle and lone wolf along with Qi Qin, another musical talent at that time. Later, due to health reasons, Wang Jie once withdrew from the music scene.

In the new century, Wang Jie made a comeback to the music scene and opened a way in the Xiangjiang music scene controlled by the four heavenly kings. But it wasn't long before his voice began to become hoarse. Later, in an interview, Wang Jie revealed that he had been poisoned and his throat was greatly damaged.

Like Wang Jie, Zhou Huajian is a singer born and raised in Xiangjiang. After failing the entrance examination in Hong Kong, he formed a band. After that, he went to Treasure Island to study, developed in Treasure Island, and was regarded as a Treasure Island singer. After returning to Xiangjiang for development, Zhou Huajian was once in the limelight. In fact, in addition to Jacky Cheung's singing skills, he completely killed the other three kings in seconds, known as the "king killer". But soon, because he was not familiar with the rules, some unpleasant things happened, and after a short period of development, Zhou Huajian, a native of Xiangjiang, gave up the Xiangjiang market. He is a brilliant meteor in the Xiangjiang music scene, leaving only a short-lived legend of the "Heavenly King Killer". And he is an eternal star in the Chinese music scene.

Compared with these two singers with local experience in Xiangjiang, Qi Qin and Tong Ange, two native singers of Baodao, did not develop so smoothly in Xiangjiang. Although there will be songs that sell well, they will never be able to enter the mainstream of Hong Kong. Looking further up, Luo Dayou, a music genius from Baodao, was also famous in Xiangjiang for a while. In fact, Luo Dayou has always been in a state of half-red and not black in Xiangjiang, and it was not until the launch of "Queen's Road East" that he won the support of the majority of people in Xiangjiang. It also struck him as incredible.

Summing up the experiences of the singers on the treasure island, Chen Tianliao can conclude that if outsiders want to develop in Xiangjiang, they must either be Xiangjiang people like Wang Jie and Zhou Huajian or at least grow up in Xiangjiang, or they will have the same unique strength as Luo Dayou in the Xiangjiang music scene, and at the same time, they can have some works to touch the hearts of the small citizens of Xiangjiang. In other words, there must always be something that can be integrated into the cognition of Xiangjiang people, otherwise it can only be a meteor. Shu Ting said that the Xiangjiang people are xenophobic, and Chen Tianliao thinks that it should be her own problem that is incompatible with the Xiangjiang culture.

Of course, Shu Ting's words are not completely unreasonable. The musicians in Xiangjiang are indeed a bit flattering to foreigners, and foreign singers who come to Xiangjiang will definitely get more resources than Baodao people and mainlanders. In fact, the entire East Asian region is a bit of a foreigner towards the West. There are no exceptions in various regions such as the Wa Kingdom, the Bang Country, the Inland China of China, and the Treasure Island. Chen Tianliao has no intention of changing this fact.

He casually chatted with Shu Ting about some anecdotes in the Xiangjiang music scene, and found out from her. Shu Ting told him all kinds of anecdotes about the Xiangjiang music scene.

At present, there are four major record companies competing for hegemony in Hong Kong. Among them, Dahong Company is local, Sonai Company is from the Japanese State, Palagin Company is from the United States, and Jinpan Company is from Baodao. In addition, there are several record labels, all of which are not large. Among them, Dahong was the largest record company at first, but after foreign capital came in, it was squeezed into the third position, and Sonai and Parakin began a seven-year competition for hegemony in Xiangjiang. At present, it is still two foreign-funded companies competing for hegemony, accompanied by companies from Heung Kong and Baodao. As for the small record company, it can only survive.

When she heard what happened to Su Wenhai running a company in Xiangjiang, Shu Ting smiled: "The four major companies and associations are involved a lot, but they will not hire the community to do such a tasteless thing." That little company of yours is completely out of their sights. It could be a small move by those small record companies. After all, they can't live anymore under the squeeze of the Big Four, and it's not fun for you to insert another kick. The biggest possibility is that the club did it itself. The current clubs are lawless, except for those who dare not provoke foreigners, no one dares to provoke. A few days ago, they even kidnapped the son of the richest man and demanded a ransom. The richest man didn't dare to say anything, he didn't even dare to call the police, he obediently sent money and calmed down. ”

Chen Tianliao almost squirted out a mouthful of tea. What is this called, even Zhang Ziqiang, who tied up the son of the richest man Li, crossed over?

Maybe it was because Xiangjiang had been lonely for a long time, or maybe Chen Tianliao came to see her on behalf of her friend Huang Yi in the mainland, Shu Ting almost narrated everything in the Xiangjiang music scene to Chen Tianliao. Removing her own prejudice against the Xiangjiang music scene, Chen Tianliao gained a lot of valuable information from her words, and slowly formed a new plan in his heart.

We chatted until the evening before Chen Tianliao offered to leave. Shu Ting was a little reluctant, but she still said to Chen Tianliao very politely: "Thank you for coming to see me and chatting with me." This is the happiest day I have in Heung Kong. ”

Chen Tianliao also thanked him politely: "I also thank you for telling me so much useful information. By the way, I'm going back to the capital next month, so let's go together then!"
