Chapter 8: Ideals and Money

“…… I kiss you goodbye on the street where no one laughs, let the wind idiot laugh I can't refuse, I kiss you goodbye in the crazy night, my heart waits to meet sadness, I kiss you goodbye to the street where no one laughs, let the wind idiot laugh I can't refuse, I kiss you goodbye in the crazy night, my heart waits to meet sadness. ”

After singing the song "Kiss Goodbye", Li Qing waved off the stage amid shouts such as "Okay!", "One more song!", "Li Qing, I want to give you a monkey!".

As soon as he got off the stage, he heard Feng Xiaogang shouting to him, "Qingzi, this way!"

Li Qing followed the sound and looked over, and saw Feng Xiaogang sitting in the corner with two men in their thirties.

Then, Li Qing walked straight towards Feng Xiaogang and them.

As soon as they arrived at Feng Xiaogang's table, Feng Xiaogang, who had already stood up, introduced the two middle-aged men who also stood up to Li Qing: "Qingzi, this is Mr. Zhang Beiren, the big boss of Wantai, this is Mr. Liu Zhuohui, Mr. Liu, the big boss of Hong Kong Xiang." Then Feng Xiaogang introduced Li Qing to Zhang Beiren and Liu Zhuohui: "He is the Li Qing you are looking for, I am ferromagnetic." ”

As soon as he heard the names of Zhang Peiren and Liu Zhuohui, Li Qing's mind immediately flashed through the two record companies that disappeared in the long river of history in the later generations - Moyan Records (now called Moyan Culture, which was renamed three years later) and Dadi Records.

Zhang Beiren stretched out his hand first and said with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Li, I am Zhang Beiren, the general manager of Moyan Culture under Rolling Stone, our Moyan Culture has just founded the Zhongg Huo brand, focusing on building mainland rock culture, carrying forward mainland rock culture, and promoting the wave of rock music. ”

Li Qing asked quietly: "Your Demon Rock Culture only took a fancy to my "Dream Chasing Pure Heart"?"

was asked by Li Qing so bluntly, Zhang Beiren was stunned for a moment, and then said: "My initial plan is to let "Dream Chasing Pure Heart" and the songs of famous rock bands and musicians such as Tang Dynasty Band, Zhang Chu, He Yong, Dou Wei, Wang Yong, and Fang Ke Ke jointly release a monograph, and when you have a certain reputation, I will release a separate rock album for you, and as for your other songs, I can help you release an EP." ”

On the surface, Li Qing's expression was as usual.

In his heart, Li Qing was feeling sorry for Zhang Beiren and Moyan Records!

If we only talk about the glory of the peak, including China G Records, the leader of the mainland record companies, there is no record company in the mainland that is more brilliant than Moyan Records.

Two years later, on the rock night at the Hung Hom Coliseum in Hong Kong, the three heroes of Moyan made the rock music of the mainland show their faces, reversed the world's perception of mainland music in one fell swoop, and made rock and roll sweep the country.

Pity!

The rebellion advocated by rock and roll is contrary to mainstream values, coupled with the prejudice of many people's consciousness, rock is destined to be beaten into an alternative, and then become an unpopular culture, and eventually decline, just like Magic Rock Records, which is committed to the development of rock culture.

Li Qing let go of Zhang Xiangren's hand, Liu Zhuohui immediately handed over his hand to shake hands with Li Qing, and said: "Mr. Li, your "Dream Chasing Pure Heart", "Love and Hate", "Wukong", "Kiss Goodbye" are all very popular with our Dadi Records, and we Dadi Records hope to tailor an album for you. ”

At this time, Feng Xiaogang interjected: "Don't stand, let's sit down and talk slowly, this matter can't be settled in one sentence or two." ”

Li Qing also said: "Yes, sit down and talk slowly." ”

After listening to Li Qing and Feng Xiaogang's words, Zhang Beiren and Liu Zhuo sat back in their chairs.

Subsequently, Li Qing and Feng Xiaogang also sat down.

After the four of them sat down, Zhang Peiren said: "Mr. Li, your joining will definitely make the G fire brand burn all over the entire China G, in addition, the headquarters Rolling Stone will also strongly support the brand of China G fire, if your record is successful, I can help you release it in Taiwan, and even the whole of Asia, you should know that although the mainland market is large, it has not yet been developed after all, for now, Taiwan and other places are the gold market for Chinese records." ”

In the past two years, the mainland has initially formed an industrial environment dominated by the record economy, record companies continue to emerge, and record companies such as Polygram and Rolling Stone have all attached great importance to the layout of the new record market in the mainland.

Seeing Zhang Beiren repeatedly tempting Li Qing with the Rolling Stone Record behind him, Liu Zhuohua couldn't help but be a little anxious!

Dadi Records is just a record company founded in Xiangjiang only two years ago, how can it compete with a giant like Rolling Stone Records?

Moreover, Dadi Records was only acquired by Xiangjiang Zhicai Enterprise and moved to Kyoto, how can it be compared with the Magic Rock Culture, which has already gained a foothold in Kyoto?

Therefore, Liu Zhuohui, who is eager to open up the mainland record market, couldn't help but say: "Mr. Li, I was originally a lyricist of Beyond, and I am very familiar with rock music, you are indeed the best rock musician, but your music style is not limited to rock, folklore, ancient style, and soul music, you are also good at it, just to do rock music, it is a pity, I hope to work with you to create an album that can fully release your musical talent...... In addition, if we cooperate, it is easy to discuss things in terms of account sharing. ”

To be honest, Magic Rock and Earth are not the record companies that Li Qing wants to work with!

The former, dedicated to the development of rock and roll, did not pay attention to other music.

The latter, but the background is insufficient.

Li Qing's partner in his heart is actually China G Records - although China G Records is a state-owned enterprise, with more constraints and many rules, it is currently the leader of the mainland record company after all, with perfect distribution channels in the mainland (basically every province has a subsidiary), and also has a good distribution capacity overseas.

It's a pity -

Medium G Records didn't come to the door!

This at least shows that China G Records does not attach importance to him Li Qing.

In fact, this is also understandable, after all, the current China G Records is the king of kings that no record company in the mainland can compete with, and the current Li Qing is just a well-known song and dance hall singer, how can China G Records condescend to take the initiative to come to Li Qing?

In this case, even if you reluctantly cooperate with China G Records, it is not interesting, because China G Records will never give Li Qing the conditions he wants.

In this way, Li Qing could only choose between the magic rock and the earth for the time being.

As for who to choose?

How can I say that, those who talk about ideals and money with you are good partners, and those who only talk about ideals and not money with you don't want to give you money.
