Chapter 62 The Establishment of Hong Kong

The day after Deyong's concert, Chen Tianliao's name appeared on the first page of all the paper media in Hong Kong. And radio and television stations are even more enthusiastic about this genius. Due to Chen Tianliao's low profile, the media's gossip about Chen Tianliao is limited to public information. But even the public information is enough to shock the people. In the past, Chen Tianliao was a distant figure, but now this genius is in Xiangjiang, and the people immediately discussed it.

Chen Tianliao was quickly pulled out to compare with Mozart, who composed music at the age of six. Then, he was pulled out to compare with the musicians in Xiangjiang and the musicians in the Wa Kingdom...... The more the Xiangjiang media compared, the more excited they became, and Chen Tianliao's popularity was rising rapidly.

At this time, the news of Chen Tianliao's recruitment of music talents appeared in the newspapers of Xiangjiang, which made it even more sensational. However, the people of Xiangjiang in this era were prejudiced against the mainland, so although they admired Chen Tianliao's talent very much in music, they still had some concerns about the policy issues in the mainland, and they did not know whether a "capitalist" like Chen Tianliao would be liquidated after the autumn. So Chen Tianliao waited all day, waiting for all the calls from admirers, and as for the phone calls for the job, he didn't receive any of them.

At the same time, Chen Tianliao also received an interview request from a satellite television station, one of the two major television stations in Xiangjiang in this time and space. Chen Tianliao thought about it and agreed.

The next day, a female reporter and a photographer came to the TV station to interview them. This female reporter is named Zhang Yulan, and she often runs mainland news, so she is very fluent in Mandarin. After a period of unnourished greetings and the like, the interview began.

"Xiao Liao, your works are popular in the Wa Kingdom, but your personal life is a mystery. Can you simply show us the daily life of your genius?" Zhang Yulan opened her mouth and gossiped.

Chen Tianliao was speechless, he really deserved to be an entertainment reporter in Xiangjiang. "My life is actually very simple," he says. Every day, I stick to school and home, and occasionally go out for a walk or sit in my own company. I have to devote at least 4 hours a day to basic art-related exercises, as well as school studies and other personal studies, such as foreign languages and programming languages. ”

Zhang Yulan sighed and said: "I didn't expect you to learn so many things. I heard that you were able to write songs in Japanese when you were in the third grade, how did you do that?"

Chen Tianliao smiled: "I don't know, I don't think it's difficult to master." Learn to learn, and it will be natural. ”

Zhang Yulan was speechless. After a while, he said, "Can I understand that this is because of your genius?"

Chen Tianliao nodded: "It's not wrong for you to understand it this way." ”

Zhang Yulan snorted and laughed, and said, "You are so humorous." I heard that you are the son of an ordinary state worker in the capital, how did you embark on the road of art?"

Chen Tianliao maintained an elegant smile and answered the question for her. In this way, the two have been tepidly asking questions.

After asking eight gossip questions, Zhang Yulan suddenly said: "Xiao Liao, why did you come to Xiangjiang to recruit people this time? As far as I know, the mainland is not suitable for engaging in art. ”

Chen Tianliao's spirits perked up, and he knew that the difficult part was coming. He smiled and said, "No, no, no, as far as I know, the art environment in Xiangjiang is similar to that of the mainland. ”

Zhang Yulan was stunned for a moment and said, "You can't be mistaken, right?"

Chen Tianliao shook his head and said, "That's right." Xiangjiang seems to be very free, but if you can't see the master behind it, there is no way out for art. When I came to Hong Kong, I already saw that many artists were destitute. What Hong Kong has is just business. Contrary to business, even pure art is struggling. In contrast, the mainland will fund arts that have no commercial value but have cultural influence, such as Peking Opera and Kunqu Opera. ”

Zhang Yulan smiled. She admires Chen Tianliao's emergency response ability. Although there is a lot to explore in depth about this question, she is only here to complete the interview task, not to hold a debate competition, so she continues to ask the following questions.

"But Xiangjiang has a bright future, and no one can see through the prospects of the mainland, so who would give up a splendid and prosperous place like Xiangjiang to work in the mainland?"

Chen Tianliao said with a smile: "If you really want to talk about the future, I will definitely be optimistic about the mainland." One of the most important pieces of evidence is that you Xiangjiang businessmen are investing more and more money in the mainland, but the money invested in the mainland is not increasing. It can be seen that you businessmen who make a lot of money are more optimistic about the mainland. There are not many people who are engaged in art, but it doesn't matter, just follow the people who make a lot of money, and promise not to suffer. ”

Zhang Yulan pursed her lips and smiled. A genius is a genius, this is said to be a clear word, and no problem will ever cross the red line, but it can justify itself. She nodded and said, "Okay, we'll report all of your words truthfully." I hope it can resonate with people in the music industry in Hong Kong and let them go to the mainland to develop as well!"

Chen Tianliao smiled: "Thank you, Sister Zhang." However, the talents I am recruiting now are all placed in the Xiangjiang Company. In the future, I will increase exchanges between the mainland and Hong Kong. When they go to the mainland for exchanges, they feel that it is appropriate to stay in the mainland, and of course we welcome them with both hands, and if they feel that it is not suitable, then they can stay in the Xiangjiang branch all the time. ”

After the interview was issued, it did have a repercussion among the musicians in Hong Kong. Some musicians who didn't mix well in Xiangjiang began to find Chen Tianliao. In the next three days, Chen Tianliao actually recruited 12 professionals. He was thrilled. The purpose of this trip to Hong Kong has been achieved.

Just when Chen Tianliao was about to contact Shu Ting and buy a ticket to return to the mainland, Excellence found Chen Tianliao.

"We also hope to develop in Beijing. Excellence said in his broken Mandarin.

Chen Tianliao was stunned for a moment: "Why do you think so? Are you going to give up your dream?"

Zhuo Zhuo shook his head and said, "No, but after we went back that day, we all discussed it." If we continue like this, we won't survive. We only have a market among a small group of real music lovers, but there aren't many professionals. Eventually, in order to starve to death, we had to find another job. I may still be a DJ, Rao Zhong can be behind the scenes, and Yan Li may have to change careers. I know that if she didn't do music, she could have found a lot of better jobs with her qualifications. Then we let life slowly wear out our passion for music. In contrast, being able to continue to make music together, and we can continue to do our band in our spare time, this may be the best ending. ”

Chen Tianliao said happily: "Not bad. What you're also overlooking is that the number of listeners in the mainland is growing. The largest audience for avant-garde music is college students. At present, more and more college students in the mainland are receiving higher education, and the number of college students in the country is growing very rapidly. This year, the number of students enrolled in universities nationwide is 550,000, and the total number of college students is more than 1.7 million. The number of students enrolled in colleges and universities will exceed 600,000 next year, and it is expected to be more than 700,000 the year after. If the university enrollment expansion that is now in the pipeline is achieved within 10 years, it will not be a problem for the university to surpass 2 million students in that year. Later, with the growth of the economy, it is not a problem to find a college student with a population of Xiangjiang in a year. And more and more people will be able to enjoy your music. In contrast, Xiangjiang is a stagnant pool for you with all due respect. ”

Excellence thought about it, finally nodded, and said, "I hope I can see more and more music fans one day." ”

Chen Tianliao smiled: "You will be able to see it soon!"

After Excellence left, Chen Tianliao met Lu Zhen who came to visit again.

When Chen Tianliao saw Lu Zhen, he was stunned: "Sister Zhen, why are you here?"

Lu Zhen took off her gloves and said with a smile: "What, you don't welcome me here?"

Chen Tianliao poured a cup of hot tea, held it in front of Lu Zhen, and said with a flattering smile: "How dare I not welcome you, Sister Zhen!

Lu Zhen said: "I came this time mainly to see you. You're about to go back to the capital, and you don't know when you'll meet again. ”

Chen Tianliao was moved for a while and said, "Sister Zhen, thank you for being so kind!"

Lu Zhen said again: "I have one more thing. Xiao Liao, aren't you going to open a record company in Xiangjiang? Brother Wang and I both want to participate in the shares. The number of shares is as you like, and we will definitely contribute according to the actual price. Lu Zhen said.

Chen Tianliao's heart was even more moved. No one can be optimistic about his record company. Moreover, there are too many small record companies in Xiangjiang, and even if there is a moment of prosperity, it will eventually be swallowed up by the big record companies. Although Chen Tianliao is known as a genius, he has not yet shown his strength in the Xiangjiang music scene, so many people think that his record company will be the same as other small record companies, and the best outcome is to be acquired by a large company. And Lu Zhen's move is obviously to express her support for Chen Tianliao. As for the eldest brother Wang in her mouth, it is her friend Wang Yun, the actor of Xiangjiang who grew up with her. With such two gods participating in the shares, the company will have a lot less trouble in Xiangjiang.

Of course, Chen Tianliao was not ambiguous, and said: "I am ready to invest three million funds in Xiangjiang for development. Moreover, the copyright of all my songs in the Xiangjiang region is represented by this company. There is no discount for this batch of copyrights. ”

Lu Zhen asked, "What is the approximate price of these songs?"

Chen Tianliao shook his head and said, "I don't evaluate, just treat it as zero." In case the new company is not profitable, the asset is sold, and it is considered profitable, and it looks good on the face. ”

Lu Zhen smiled: "Okay. I decided to subscribe for 10% of the company's shares, and Brother Wang, I also decided to subscribe for 10% for him. Also, I'll have to buy a few of your songs, you know, I've been coveting them for a long time after listening to their versions!"

Chen Tianliao said: "Okay, you can select a few songs, and then I will write you a few new ones for your new album! Although I don't speak Cantonese very well, I can still write Cantonese songs, just like "Sun and Stars." ”

Lu Zhen was overjoyed and said, "Just have that level." Thank you so much!"

Chen Tianliao said modestly: "I want to thank Sister Zhen for her support." ”

Lu Zhen happily hugged Chen Tianliao and kissed him on the cheek. She couldn't have imagined that a kind act of her would actually bring such a big reward from Chen Tianliao! Of course, Chen Tianliao's return, in addition to Lu Zhen's kindness touched him, Lu Zhen's songs also deeply attracted him. can let an excellent singer like Lu Zhen reproduce the classics of his previous life, Chen Tianliao feels that it is more suitable.
