Chapter 212

(To be revised)

The show continued, and Zheng Donghan and the others stared closely at the TV screen. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Chen Shulan: According to the survey, your songs are very popular with young people under the age of 25, I would like to ask, do you have any plans to join Heung Kong Records in the future? Which record company do you prefer?

Cheng Weiliang smiled at the camera and replied calmly: "I have traveled all over the world, in different cities. Xiangjiang is a beautiful city where Chinese and Western cultures meet, and I have benefited a lot during my time in Xiangjiang, and I have made a lot of close friends, and I am very grateful for this wonderful journey!"

"Singing and writing songs is just a hobby of mine, and now I'm not sure whether I want to join a regular professional music company." ”

Chen Shulan: (Take a cold breath, people are just a hobby, ......) Personally, I would like to ask you a question, when you sing on Temple Street, you add one or two new songs every day, so as of last night, have all your songs been presented to the fans?

Cheng Weiliang: I've been trying to write songs since I was 12 years old, but the songs in my early years were relatively naΓ―ve. The songs I have written in recent years have been better, and I have written more than 60 songs one after another, and the 22 songs that are currently presented to fans on Temple Street are relatively mature, and I am quite satisfied!

Chen Shulan: (Take a cold breath, more than 60 songs!)

The talk show was only half an hour long, and ATV edited part of the interview to air. However, the information revealed in half an hour was enough to satisfy the curiosity of many viewers.

For his peers in the Xiangjiang music scene, the biggest surprise was that Cheng Weiliang revealed in the program that he was going to transfer a few songs that had been proven to be very popular! For a while, the Xiangjiang music circle was jumping. Singers, especially newcomer female singers, are particularly eager to contact Cheng Weiliang. Some small record companies know that they can't compete with big companies, and now they are taking action, even if they can't sign Cheng Weiliang, it's not bad to win the copyright of a few hit songs!

"More than sixty songs!" Zheng Donghan also took a cold breath. He pressed the remote control, turned off the TV, and recalled the words he had just heard, "Xiangjiang is a wonderful journey for him?"

Guan Weilin said with some hesitation, "He is a Chinese song, does he want to go back to the mainland? Or go to Taipei?"

"Let's not talk about this first, what do you think of what he said in the show?" Zheng Donghan shook his head and asked the other three people in the room in a deep voice.

Without waiting for the others to answer, he paced back and forth, muttering to himself: "Good guy, there is really a hand!" When he said this on the show, all newcomers and famous singers will be ready to move. We underestimated him!"

"As soon as this show is broadcast, the people who buy the songs will definitely break through the threshold, and when the time comes, the one with the highest price will win! The debt of 200,000 yuan can't trap him at all! No, we can't let him sell all the songs!"

……

An audio-visual store in Causeway Bay.

"Boss, are there any records for Brother Sunglasses to sell?" asked a young man.

"No, Brother Sunglasses hasn't released an official record yet. The boss replied with a straight look.

"Boss, do you sell Sunglasses' records?" asked a female white-collar worker.

"Not yet, he hasn't released a record yet. ”

"Boss, I see that someone else sells a tape of Brother Sunglasses, do you have his record here?"

"No, what others sell is A goods!" the boss was impatient.

……

"Boss, where is Cheng Weiliang's record? I haven't found it. A timid girl asked politely.

"No, no, you know, he hasn't officially released a record, where did I get the goods?" Throughout the day, more than fifty or sixty customers have come to inquire, and the boss is about to go crazy!

"Hey, you're just crazy! Such a big store doesn't even have a record of Brother Sunglasses, it's really bad! Look at the store next door to you, the store that sells clothes is showing Brother Sunglasses's "", and the shopping mall on the opposite street is also playing "", you are bad if you are bad, and you are scolding! Mingshu, don't pay attention to him, let's go! Let's go back to the school gate to buy it. A spicy girl next to her glared at the boss angrily and scolded, turned her head and grabbed her good friend's hand to leave.

Mingshu was a little hesitant and said hesitantly: "However, the sound quality of those cassettes is not very good, and they are not genuine at first glance." Buy A goods, like this...... I'm sorry for the people. ”

"The problem is that there is no genuine version now! Let's go, let's go, and we'll compensate him when the genuine record comes out in the future." ”

"Boss, this is not the way to go. Others sell it, but our big store is out of stock, which will affect our reputation. An employee said worriedly.

"That's not good, we're a genuine shop! For a little profit, that's what will ruin our good reputation!" The owner of the video store vetoed it, and then gritted his teeth and scolded, "Damn piracy, how can the police not take care of it, they should all arrest these pirated sellers!"

The employee whispered, "But it's hard to be kind to the customer!" Boss, why don't we ...... Go get some and sell it privately. Listen, I bought it at the itinerant vendor at the entrance of the community when I came home from work last night. As he spoke, he took out a cassette of music tapes from his pocket and handed it to his boss.

The boss looked at it carefully, the workmanship was rough, and he casually put it into the cassette recorder. The unrestrained melody of the first song "Run" immediately sounded.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Flying with the wind is the power of the direction, chasing thunder and lightning...... Fly with the wind, have dreams to be wings, dare to love, dare to do, and bravely break through......"

Cheng Weiliang's unrestrained and brisk singing, along with the energetic subwoofer sound in the store, penetrated the night sky, attracting many passers-by to stop and listen. And the fat, incomplete boss couldn't help but dance to the beat of the energetic music, humming along in his half-baked Chinese.

"Boss, spare us!" the employee shouted for help, although this dear boss loves music, but his singing voice is ......

"Boss Ding, is the goods here? Give me one. ”

"Lao Ding, is this one of those songs sung by Brother Sunglasses? If you have the goods, bring me one. ”

"Boss, give me one too. My girlfriend loves to listen to it. The people who were attracted to the store by the singing of the super speaker poured around the boss to ask questions, and they were anxious to take out their banknotes and hand them over.

"This, this ......" Boss Ding stood for a long time, looked at the employees, and finally the employees gritted their teeth and said, "Neighbors, in two days." ”

Similar to the embarrassing situation of this audio-visual store in Causeway Bay, the whole Xiangjiang abounds. Beginning the night before yesterday, small batches of Cheng Weiliang's music tapes were flowing out in the popular areas of Yau Tsim Mong, and yesterday they gradually spread to the densely populated markets in various areas, and today they are like mercury laxes, permeating the entire Kowloon and Hong Kong Island areas, night markets, schools, factories, residential communities, everywhere there are mobile vendors pushing small carts to fight guerrillas, and even the vegetable markets have people holding loudspeakers to sell at home. In lively neighborhoods such as Temple Street and Yaliu Street, some vendors boldly put out tapes for sale at night.

Prices vary from place to place. Where there is enough to sell, it sells for 10 yuan, some sell for 12 yuan, and the sought-after ones even sell for 15 or 20 yuan, which is very crazy! You know, the price of genuine vinyl records at this time is only between 30 and 50 yuan.

On the third day, the shops and shops, bars, lounges, and discotheques in the streets and alleys of various neighborhoods all played Cheng Weiliang's songs overnight, as if they could not keep up with the trend if his songs were not played! Some elf singers in bars and nightclubs even sang Cheng Weiliang's very popular songs on the spot.

There is the embarrassment of genuine video stores, and naturally there are also people who are proud.

"Chunming, how much is out of your class today?" asked a young man with a flat head.

"Brother Prawn, fifteen boxes today. A boy replied.

"Xiaolong, where is your class?"

"Ten boxes, Brother Shrimp. β€œ

"Mine is twenty boxes. ”

"All in all, the whole school sold 320 boxes today. Very good, you will continue to sell in other classes tomorrow, all come on!" Brother Shrimp happily encouraged those students.

In the evening, in a restaurant, the box is staggered.

"Boss Wang, my place is very popular, I will pick up 10,000 boxes tomorrow, no problem, right?"

"Brother Wang, I have an old friend, give me five thousand goods tonight. ”

"Brother Wang, I have always eaten the most goods, and I will get 20,000 yuan tomorrow, you won't give it, right?" The sales have been too hot in the past two days, and they heard that the inventory in the hands of the supplier Boss Wang is about to run out, and they are afraid that the new goods will not be able to meet for a while, so they have rushed to place orders.

Boss Wang pressed his hand, motioned for everyone to calm down, and said with a smile: "Bosses, everyone will make a fortune! Don't worry, they have goods! The factory is working overtime, and you will definitely not be able to make a fortune!"

After sending away a group of channel partners who were urging goods, Boss Wang proudly said to a man with a slight limp on his left foot: "Ah Ming, have you seen it? How hot our business is! In less than three days, nearly 10,000 boxes have been shipped! I believe that in a week or a month, 10,000 boxes, or even 10,000 boxes, will not be a problem!"

"This is only the local area of Xiangjiang, and now there are also merchants on Taiwan Island and Nanyang who have come to contact me to get the goods. Ah Ming, your brother with sunglasses is quite powerful, I have been in this business for so long, and I haven't shipped as much and fast as this time!"

"It's better to find a day to ask him out, let's celebrate and celebrate! Let's talk casually, and record a few of his other songs together, let's make a big profit for him!" Boss Wang patted Ah Ming on the shoulder boldly.

Brother Ming smiled and said, "He is very busy now, and this matter has been handed over to me to deal with." ”

Boss Wang suddenly said ambiguously: "Understand, he is a big singer now." ”

……

In the evening, it was past the end of work, and in the spacious conference room of Polygram, Zheng Donghan and Guan Weilin and other senior executives of the company were still sitting in the conference room for a meeting, and the atmosphere was a little dull.

Zheng Donghan sat on the chair, held a box of music tapes in his hand and looked at it again and again, half loud, before breaking the silence and saying: "Everyone, this box of songs has taken you to listen to, let's talk about your opinions." ”

The director of the distribution department said: "The workmanship is rough, the noise is a bit loud, the sound quality is mediocre, and the people who buy it are probably some low-level citizens who are greedy for cheapness." ”

The arranger, Lutony, also spoke, "This tape was produced in the factory and the master tape was recorded in a very hasty manner, which can be seen in many details of the tape. But I still have to say that the arrangement level of this sunglasses brother is already quite level, and what is lacking is only polishing the details. He's amazing at his age!"

Music director Guan Weilin exhaled and said in a deep voice: "No matter whether this box of tapes is well made or poorly made, in the final analysis, the market is still king!"

"Those who sell A goods are a little more restrained during the day, and at night, all the stalls in the night market openly put up their song tapes!"

"Today, I drove to various places to observe, street shops, shopping malls, schools, communities, bars, discotheques, really, all over the street! This kind of market heat, should we cry or laugh?" Guan Weilin took a sullen puff of his flue.

Several high-level officials attending the meeting looked at each other and were speechless for a while.

"Wei Lin, what is your opinion? Is it possible, we have only confronted each other for two days and we have conceded defeat? How can a newcomer be so arrogant and not follow the rules? Some irresponsible companies have already increased the price to one million, and we have paid such a big price before he is willing to sign for a year? When he is a superstar! I don't agree!" A high-ranking person insisted on his opinion.

When others heard this, they also exchanged their opinions from ear to ear.

Zheng Donghan sighed, closed his eyes and leaned on the back of the chair, his fingers unconsciously tapped the armrest of the chair, thinking about how to decide.

The huge clock on the wall, the long second hand "ticking" is walking, and the time passes by second.

Just as everyone fell silent again, the door of the conference room was suddenly pushed open. A young man walked in hurriedly, Zheng Donghan opened his eyes and looked at the young man with blazing eyes: "Zhihui, is there any news?"

"Mr. Zheng, Director Guan, according to the news that the little brother I bought, according to the incomplete statistics of various places, the shipment volume in the past three days is at least more than 10,000 boxes! It is so hot, the various distribution points are often sold out, and once the goods arrive, they will be coaxed out by the scheduled customers!" The young man in the distribution department who was in charge of finding out the news replied slightly breathlessly. "Everyone is rumoring that Brother Sunglasses is leaving Xiangjiang, and this is the only music tape he left. ”

In less than three days, there was a gasp in the office.

This is also because those hawkers hide in Tibet during the day and do not dare to open up to sell openly! If it is distributed through official channels and has received sufficient publicity and promotion, the data will be ......

"Gentlemen, do you need to hesitate any longer?" Zheng Donghan slapped the table with a dazzling light in his eyes.

"It is said that people are Chinese songs, and they have not been tested by the real market, but now, there is data, right?" Three days, double platinum sales!" Zheng Donghan's face turned pale, and he looked at the colleagues in the audience and said coldly: "The twenty-two songs he released are enough for us to use as the title song and release several records! And don't forget, he still has more than sixty songs, and the future in his mind is also an endless treasure trove!"
