Chapter 442 Summary
Thank you Guo Lanyuan for your great reward!!
----------------------------
Time passed inadvertently, and soon it was the Spring Festival.
On the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Chen's father took Chen Lang's grandparents to the house to celebrate the New Year.
Chen Lang's grandparents guard their own tea restaurant and rarely come to Chen Lang's house, usually when Chen Lang's family has free time to visit the second elder.
That is, today is the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, as a descendant of China, it is natural to reunite with his family on this day, and the second elder is too small to squeeze so many people, so the second elder agreed to come to Chen Lang's house.
Originally, Chen's father wanted to buy a small apartment of 8/90 square meters for the second elder in the same community, so that the second elder could spend his old age in peace, and it was close to him and convenient to take care of, but he was taught a hard lesson by his grandfather, and he learned to spend money indiscriminately as soon as he had a little savings, which was really a loser.
In fact, the family knows that the old man is most afraid of loneliness, and the second old man is most reluctant to be his old neighbors, and the family is also very helpless about this, usually everyone is very busy, and there is really no one to accompany them if they really want to take the second old man, but fortunately, the second old man is in good health, and it can only be like this for the time being.
Although grandpa doesn't have a good face for Chen's father, he loves Chen Lang and Chen Yun very much, especially for his grandson, who really likes it.
I usually like to read newspapers, look for information about Chen Lang, and I also like to listen to the neighbors next to the door talk about his good grandson, which is really bright, which makes the old man proud.
Today is the Chinese New Year's Eve, the family is reunited to celebrate the New Year, and the grandfather no longer has a straight face, but has a few drinks with Chen's father, plus Chen Lang and Chen Yun are playing on the side, and the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is happy.
After eating, Chen's father accompanied his grandfather to play chess, and Chen Lang watched the game on the sidelines.
Grandma, Chen's mother, and Chen Yun chatted together, waiting for the arrival of 12 o'clock in the morning.
When the hands turned to 12 o'clock at the same time, fireworks were lit up outside the house, and families said "Happy Chinese New Year!" to each other. Add more joy to the Spring Festival.
The 12 o'clock clock in the morning also kicked off the Chinese in 1984, which was the fourth year of Chen Lang's rebirth.
So far, Chen Lang has opened four companies, namely LL Entertainment Commodities Company, LL Film Company, LL Out Headquarters and LL Haishan Rolling Stone Record Company.
LL Entertainment Commodities Company, which includes three large-scale production plants in Hong Kong, a production plant in Taiwan (the former vinyl record factory of Haishan Records Company was rebuilt), and Lang Lang Qiankun stores throughout Hong Kong and central and northern Taiwan.
The products include molds, dolls, posters, toys, light sticks, various accessories, clothes and scarves, etc.
In addition to supplying Lang Lang Qiankun, the three production factories in Hong Kong also provide goods to 40 percent of Hong Kong's department stores, supermarkets, and small shops (which have decreased by 20 percent compared with the original due to currency depreciation and business competition).
Because the production capacity of Taiwan's production plant has not been fully developed, it can only supply Lang Lang Qiankun as the main supply, followed by other department stores and supermarkets, plus the profit of Lang Lang Qiankun stores, which can bring more than 3 million Hong Kong dollars in gross profit per month.
ll film company, the opening work "Happy Ghost" box office of 17.15 million Hong Kong dollars, has become the highest opening result of all film companies in Hong Kong, but because there is no own theater chain, plus the agreement with Fang Yihua, it can only get 25% of the total box office.
Excluding the cost of the film and the red envelopes in order to attract film talents, he only earned about 1 million Hong Kong dollars in the end.
However, these are all expected by Chen Lang, the company has just started, the first step is to be able to gain a firm foothold, and now the ll film company is facing a huge opportunity.
The declining Shaw Brothers is reducing production and will sell its Shaw Brothers Cinemas, and whether or not it can win the Shaw Brothers Cinemas will be an important turning point for LL Films.
In terms of film talents, only Wang Jing, a big-name director, has been recruited, and only Li Lizhen, a star in the previous life, has signed a contract, and the manpower in other departments is not too good, but at least he has been able to build a complete crew by himself.
LL Films has also set up animation and special effects teams, the animation team has Hideaki Anno, a famous animation giant in the future, and the special effects team has no star-level characters, but special effects research is also making slow progress.
LL Publishing House, which mainly publishes five books written by Chen Lang, also prints a small number of dictionaries, history series, Chinese and foreign classics and other books, and has recently added a new business to receive contributions from authors.
If you find something outstanding, you will try to publish, which is what Chen Lang requires, after all, it is impossible for a publishing house to develop by relying on only one person forever, and Chen Lang's affairs will become busier and busier in the future, and there will be less and less time, and it is not certain whether he can continue to write.
LL Publishing House relies on publishing Chen Lang's book, even under the influence of piracy, a book can sell 500,000 copies, and this is only the data of Hong Kong, if you count the entire Asian region, this sales figure will reach more than 3 million copies.
In addition to various costs such as printing, transportation, revision, translation, channel concessions, and taxes of various countries, a book can bring almost 20 million Hong Kong dollars to the publishing house.
In order to expand its own channels and reduce the profits of the publishing house, the publishing house is actively acquiring and opening branches in Taiwan and Southeast Asia, and Japan and South Korea are not planned for the time being.
ll Haishan Records, which is composed of the original Haishan Records and the music elite of Rolling Stone magazine.
With the channels and connections of the original Haishan and the elite behind the scenes of Rolling Stone Records, several records launched for its singers have received good market responses, and after two years of development, now LL Haishan Rolling Stone Records has become one of the three major record companies in Taiwan.
At the same time, LL Haishan Rolling Stone Records has set up branches in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia in Southeast Asia, and has begun to sign singers while underwriting Taiwan's own records, developing the local singer market and expanding the company's market share and influence in Southeast Asian countries.
However, this will directly compete with the international giant record labels, and the pressure is not small.
At present, Haishan Rolling Stone Records has gathered many famous musicians and singers who are familiar to Chen Lang.
Zheng Zhenkun, the general manager of the Taiwan company, can be called a giant in the Taiwanese music scene, with deep connections and strong personal influence.
In terms of music producers, there are Luo Dayou and Li Zongsheng, two future godfathers of the music scene, and the two Duan Zongsheng are also senior musicians.
Its singers include female singers Pan Yueyun, Qi Yu, Zhang Aijia, Lin Huiping, and male singers Luo Dayou, Zhou Huajian, and Tong Ange.
The Hong Kong branch that will be established in August this year already has Chen Lang, Xu Guanjie and Zhen Ni, three kings and queens of the Hong Kong music scene.
LL Haishan Rolling Stone Records is already a multinational record company with a concentration of talents and perfect channels, and at least in Taiwan and Southeast Asia, it already has the capital to compete with international giant record companies.
When the Hong Kong branch is established, it will be even more powerful, because the radiation of Hong Kong entertainment to Asia is becoming more and more obvious, and the establishment and success of the Hong Kong branch will be a great help to Haishan Rolling Stone Records.
After the establishment of the Hong Kong branch, it is expected that Haishan Rolling Stone Records will be able to earn 80 million Hong Kong dollars in gross revenue every year.
The above is the current situation of Chen Lang's four companies, and then talk about Chen Lang's current achievements.
The first is Chen Lang's first identity, a writer.
Since the birth of a book "Zhu Xian" that shocked Hong Kong, Chen Lang has released five books, namely "Zhu Xian", "Ethereal Journey", "Looking for Qin", "Buddha is the Way" and the soon-to-end "Ghost Blowing the Lantern".
For people in the 80s, Chen Lang's five books can be summed up in four words, novelty, wonderful, best-selling, and imitation.
The novelty is due to the fact that these five films created five new genres and genres in Hong Kong in the 80s, Xianxia, Xiuzhen, Traveling, Flood and Tomb Robbery.
This is in Hong Kong in the 80s, which is dominated by martial arts and supplemented by Ni Kuang's science fiction, each one is extremely novel, and the explosive imagination has made countless fans shout amazingly.
At the same time, the ups and downs of the storyline, all kinds of magic weapons and immortals, the infinite imagination of rare treasures and many unique characters, all make readers addicted, looking at Chen Lang, it is like drinking elixir, it is really a great joy in life.
Guided by novelty and brilliance, it was a natural bestseller, not only in Hong Kong, but also in the whole of Asia, with more than 3 million copies sold per copy to make Chan Lang the best-selling author in Asia.
Stimulated by novelty, excitement and best-selling, in Hong Kong, where it is commonplace to follow trends, a large number of people who specialize in imitating Chen Lang were soon born.
At this time, the literati in Hong Kong had a strong literary atmosphere, everyone had good writing, and there was still a lot of room for play in the creation of new genres, so they also created a lot of masterpieces for a while, and at the same time, Chen Lang's new type was hot, making Chen Lang a myth in the world.
In terms of comics, although Chen Lang is not a cartoonist, the "Zhu Xian" comic created by Chen Lang has caused a quiet change in the Hong Kong comic industry, and a "Zhu Xian" has given Chen Lang, an outsider, a lot of status in the Hong Kong comic industry.
In the end, it is naturally Chen Lang's most glamorous identity, a new superstar in the music world.
Since his debut in the Asian Amateur Singing Competition, Chen Lang has released four albums, namely "Lang Lang Qiankun", "Lang Lang Catchy", "Lang Cai Girl" and "Moon Lang Xingxi".
The four records brought Chen Lang more than 1.4 million copies in Hong Kong and 28 platinum sales, and in the whole of Asia, it was an astonishing sales of more than 1,100 records for more than 1,100 years, and Chen Lang also became the youngest singer to achieve 10 million sales.
At the same time, Chen Lang also set one record after another in the field of record sales.
At present, the first and second places in the total sales chart of a single album in Hong Kong are both from Chen Lang.
The record for first-day and single-day sales of the record was also held by Chen Lang.
Similarly, the record of first-week and single-week sales of the record is also under Chen Lang's name.
Chen Lang is definitely a record setter in the Hong Kong music scene.
Each song in the four albums is a masterpiece, even a classic, for this reason, Chen Lang's creative ability has been recognized by everyone, it can be described as "Lang Lang production, must be a masterpiece!" ”
The four records also brought Chen Lang 4 top ten Chinese golden songs, 1 top ten golden songs and 15 commercial Chinese golden songs.
At the same time, Chen Lang also won the Best Newcomer Award of the Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs, and the Most Popular Male Singer Award of the Top Ten Golden Songs, and has become a superstar in the Hong Kong music scene.
Chen Lang has made good achievements in the past four years since his rebirth, and the new year 1984 is a year of great turning point in Chen Lang's career.
In this year, Chen Lang finally became a superstar in the music world, but at the same time, he was about to usher in the strong impact of Alan Tam, the myth of the music world in his previous life.
In this year, the opening works of LL Film Company won 17.15 million box office, Chen Lang's film career officially started, and the battle for Shaw Brothers Cinemas, which will be sold next year, has officially started this year, and this competition is a matter of life and death for LL Film Company.
1984 was an extremely important year for Chen Lang.
