Chapter 167

(To be revised)

The boy with glasses saw that the line was too long, and he wanted to hurry home to make lunch for his parents, so he wanted to be lazy, and now he was stared at by so many people, and he really wanted to find a hole in the ground to drill. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info he blushed and was embarrassed to stay here any longer, thinking that he would come back tomorrow to buy it.

Naturally, the small vignette does not affect the buying sentiment of the people in line.

"Thank you! Please take it!" Cheng Weiliang sat at a table, signed the record for a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, and handed it to her with a smile.

The girl took the record with both hands and said excitedly to Cheng Weiliang: "Thank you! Liang Zai! I like your songs so much, and I will buy them again when you release the album." ”

A girl of the same age behind her, seeing that the girl in front of her was still grinding when she got the autograph, she couldn't help but urge her: "Everyone is basking in the sun, let's leave quickly if you get it." ”

The girl originally wanted to say a few more words, but Chao Chengwei Liang, who couldn't help but be embarrassed, stuck out her little tongue when she heard the words.

Cheng Weiliang nodded at her in a friendly manner, signaling that it was okay.

"It's finally me!" The girl who picked up the back excitedly handed the record in her hand to Cheng Weiliang, and looked at him with a look of hope, "Can you write the date, today is my birthday." ”

Cheng Weiliang glanced at her, and after asking her name, she wrote "I wish Chen Xiaojun a happy birthday!

The female student named Chen Xiaojun looked at Long Feifengwu's autograph, couldn't hold back her excitement, and while taking the record, she couldn't stop thanking her!

Yes, another innocent girl has been poisoned by her previous nonsense story! But if she can cross it, it's really hard to say that there must be no such thing as reincarnation.

"If you think there is, he will be in your heart. Cheng Weiliang made a sharp move.

Before the girl could ask any more questions, the people behind her were urging her as before.

After signing more than a dozen, Cheng Weiliang wanted to drink some water and take a break. The sturdy young man from before poured out more than a dozen records from a bag onto the table, ignoring the strange eyes of others, and smirked: "Brother Sunglasses, our brothers have been listening to you singing since the head of the banyan tree, and they have been waiting for you to release records for a long time! Everyone says that there is another prince of love songs in Temple Street, and the brothers don't support who you support!"

"I remember you, the big guy who always came late, but asked someone else to give you a place. Cheng Weiliang had an impression of this big man who always stood in the front row, singing and crying and howling.

"Haha, it's me, you remember!"

The autograph sale in Central lasted from morning to 5 p.m., and Cheng Weiliang felt that his hands were almost crippled when he finished work! But in the face of the pure eyes of those students, he really couldn't make up his mind to leave for the first time doing this kind of work, and left an hour later than originally scheduled.

However, this hot scene laughed at the faces of the record store and the Polygram distribution manager, and they didn't care about Cheng Weiliang's small complaints. At nine o'clock in the evening, after the preliminary sales data of the whole city was transmitted back to the company, all the decision-makers sighed.

"It seems that the old Zheng I Baodao is not yet old! What about Chinese songs? Seeing that people can still throw off other street singers a few streets!" Zheng Donghan did not hesitate to sign Cheng Weiliang, a newcomer, with the treatment of a quasi-first-line singer, and said in a high-profile manner that he would use millions of dollars to release 2 records for this newcomer within half a year, and some high-level executives in the company had opinions, and Zheng Donghan was under great pressure! However, his determination to cultivate newcomers was also quite firm, and the future kings and divas Zhang Xueyou and Chen Huixian were trained under him soon after.

"Today, a total of many small plates were sold on the first day, and tomorrow is expected to be even higher. I'm afraid that the first batch of production will not be enough, so you can contact the factory to add 20,000 orders. Zheng Donghan is in a good mood now, and he has driven away all the depression of the past few days.

Production director Guan Weilin nodded and said: "Now Wei Liang has a song on the top 20 of the Chinese song dragon and tiger list of Xiangjiang Radio, of which two songs that landed on the radio station have been ranked in the top ten in last week's list, and this Saturday's list is ranked third and fifth, "" is now only ranked under the theme song "Life is Meaningful" of "Shooting the Condor", and the first place Mei Yanfang's "Red Doubt", squeezing last week's champion Deng Lijun's "Walking on the Road of Life" to fourth. ”

Zheng Donghan pouted, ""Life is Meaningful" is borrowed from the popularity of TV, and now the second part of Condor Shooting has ended, so this song should not be so strong next week." As for Hua Xing's new little girl Mei Yanfang, she also went to the Tokyo Music Festival a while ago to get a consolation prize and came back to coax the media and help her publicize. Her adapted song "Red Doubts", I can't stay at the top of the list for long. Wei Liang's 4 songs, I think there is a possibility of competing for the top spot. ”

Kwan Weilin also has some expectations for this, and the weekly Chinese song dragon and tiger list of Heung Kong Radio has always been a popular vane of new Chinese songs in Heung Kong, and a place for soldiers to fight. If Cheng Weiliang has a song that can beat a number of Cantonese songs and get the first place on the weekly chart, it will undoubtedly be a recognition of his strength and the audience's high acceptance of his songs, and it will also be of great benefit to the real album release and publicity in the future.

On the 17th of last month, after "" and "" officially landed, they showed a strong upward momentum on the first day, and sure enough, in the list last Saturday, it has only been more than a week since they landed, and they have both entered the top ten, and this Saturday will continue to rush forward to the top of the list. This eye-catching performance finally allowed Polygram's senior management to dispel their previous doubts and invest more manpower and material resources to create Wei Liang's first Chinese album.

However, they still decided to release EP albums of songs before the big album to test the record market of these songs. Therefore, after the first two Chinese songs, "" and "" landed on the song chart this week, and in just one week, they both entered the top 20 in the Chinese song dragon and tiger list this Saturday, and "Special Love for Special You" directly grabbed the ninth position. In this way, Cheng Weiliang also has three songs in the top ten at the same time this week. This is rare for a newcomer to Chinese songs, and the results have also blinded some people in the industry.

You must know that the competition for the top ten positions on this week's list is fierce, and the big bowls are gathered. There is last week's champion Deng Lijun's "Walking on the Road of Life", and last week's champion Ye Dexian's "Tired", as well as Alan Tam's movie song "Young Master Weiwei", which has been in the top ten positions on the list for several weeks, "Water Lotus" by the powerful Ivy Spring Forest Xiang, and the theme song of the wireless hit drama "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", plus "Red Doubts" and "Hand Over My Heart" sung by Mei Yanfang, who just went to the Tokyo Music Festival to win an award, and several songs are in chaos! Even Teresa Teng, an internationally renowned big bowl, last week's champion song, was squeezed to the first position this week by "Red Doubt", "Life is Meaningful", and Cheng Weiliang's "".

It is such a fierce list, Cheng Weiliang is a newcomer, and one person occupies three places, which really makes people in the circle have to be amazed. If people in the circle previously had doubts about whether a newcomer from a foreigner who mainly relies on Chinese songs could quickly gain a foothold in the entertainment market of Xiangjiang, which has a strong sense of local consciousness and extremely fierce competition for singers, then now people have no objection to Cheng Weiliang standing out in the Xiangjiang pop music scene, and now there is only the suspense of whether he can win the weekly championship award.

In the newly released list yesterday Saturday, the news that Cheng Weiliang alone occupies three has become the darling of the newspaper media. Several major newspapers have reported on this rare phenomenon in the music scene. It is precisely because of the free publicity of the newspaper and the media, and the reason why Cheng Weiliang himself personally signed the record store, and today coincides with Sunday, in addition to die-hard fans, many citizens are eager to buy this new song EP album that PolyGram claims to be "the best in history". There are a total of 4 Chinese songs, three of which are in the top 10 of this week's Chinese song list.

On the first day, he achieved many sales results, which made Polygram's internal support for Cheng Weiliang happy. This guy really lived up to expectations and got off to a good start on the first day. How many rookie singers have fallen on the first record! A total of thousands or tens of thousands of records can be sold, and now Cheng Weiliang can reach the results of others on the first day. So optimistically, after the news of the first day of sales spreads, it is not impossible to sell 10,000 gold records, or even platinum records, in the next week!

"Wei Liang, I will continue to go to other stores to sign the sale in the next two days. Also, be prepared to go to ATV and Heung Kong Radio for interviews. What can be said and what cannot be said, I believe you have a number in your heart, so I won't say much. Artists, in addition to strength, must also be exposed in the media from time to time, otherwise everyone will easily forget you. In the matter of TVB's ban on you, the company will come forward to continue to negotiate with TVB, so you don't have to worry too much. In the next few days, the most important thing is to record all the other songs of the first album, and we will complete the production and mass production of the record within two months, and then promote and release it. Guan Weilin said to Cheng Weiliang, who was sitting next to him and quietly listening to the discussion.

This kid is a bit flattered, if other newcomers hear such good results, maybe they will all be nostrils up to the sky. And he, when everyone in the company congratulated him, he just nodded with a calm smile. Guan Weilin was very satisfied with his peaceful mentality, and was originally a little worried that he would have some frivolity of young people who "will be rampant as soon as they get their will", but now it seems that there is no need to worry that he has these stinky problems that are easy to offend people.

Cheng Weiliang nodded lightly in agreement. His recent focus has been on recording songs in the studio and coordinating with the release of the album, doing promotional activities or meeting visiting fans.

For his debut album, Polygram chose 10 songs out of all the songs. Now he has recorded 6 songs, and there are still 4 songs to go.

In view of Cheng Weiliang's ability to perform fresh folk songs and grasp popular songs well, the company decided to release his first album, not only to stabilize the word, but also to appropriately add some strong songs with his personal distinctive characteristics. But the song can't be too different from the style of other songs. Therefore, in addition to the 4 songs that have landed on the radio, a total of 10 songs were selected: "Star", "", "", and "", "".

In fact, for the last two songs, some music producers think that it would be more suitable for female singers to interpret them, especially ", Cheng Weiliang once said in an interview that he wrote songs based on a story told by a woman, and the song is also narrated in a female voice. However, Zheng Donghan believes that since Cheng Weiliang has sung these two songs in the public, the audience has a preconceived impression, so Cheng Weiliang should also be allowed to sing it for the first time when the disc is released. Anyway, the company has obtained the copyright right to use these songs for 20 years, and then find the company's female singers to reinterpret them in the future, and you can sell the records again, why not?

And the highly popular song "Love When You Die", for the sake of prudence of the company, still failed to be selected into the first album. In the same way, the dance songs "", ", and ", which have Cheng Weiliang's distinctive characteristics, were not selected for the first episode of the album.

To tell the truth, most of the ten songs selected have dominated the music charts of the year in parallel time and space. These songs are used to PK Hong Kong's declining Cantonese minor key and classical TV drama songs in the early 80s, and Cheng Weiliang is not worried at all. He is not afraid that the younger generation of fans will not buy his account. Such a big album that can be called a pop classic, people in the future will recall it and probably exclaim that this is a selected album comparable to other famous singers' "Ten Years Selected Albums"! A new song album is actually a classic! Every time you take it out, it is enough to be the title song of someone else's album!

What we need to see now is not whether it can be sold, but how many platinum sales can be sold. This depends on how many white-collar workers and how many young students are willing to accept his urban modern pop songs in advance, which is an important watershed year in the Xiangjiang pop music scene.

After an economic boom in the 60s and 70s, Hong Kong officially entered the era of an international metropolis in the 80s. With the rise of a large number of middle classes, they are no longer satisfied with the classical TV drama songs that mainly express the feelings of the family and country, the sonorous and powerful martial arts drama songs, and some minor key songs with soothing tunes and little ups and downs in the melody of the Republic of China era, such as brothers and sisters. Young people are beginning to expect Hong Kong to keep up with the modern pop music trends in developed countries such as Europe, the United States and Japan, and some urban love songs that show off their independent personality and petty bourgeois sentiment can better cater to their tastes.

Eight or four years later, young generation singers such as Tam Yonglin, Zhang Guorong, Mei Yanfang, Chen Baiqiang, Ye Qianwen, Chen Huixian, Zhang Xueyou and other singers began to rise, and the modern pop songs they sang began to become the protagonists of the two year-end award ceremonies of the Heung Kong Radio Top Ten Chinese Song Award and TVB Top Ten Golden Melody Awards. The older generation of Xu Xiaofeng, Guan Zhengjie, Luo Wen, Zhen Ni, Zheng Shaoqiu, Wang Mingquan, etc. gradually faded out of the major song charts and award ceremonies.

The golden age of the music scene, the famous Alan Tam and Zhang Guorong, the two superstars "Tan Zhang Zhenghe", and the king and queen of heaven in the music scene, has begun to come. (To be continued.) )
