Chapter 246: 500,000 Sky-high Price!
"Two hundred and eighty thousand!" "Two hundred and eighty-five thousand!" "Two hundred and ninety-thousand!" "Two hundred and fifty thousand!" "Three hundred thousand!"
……
soared all the way to 300,000, which discouraged many record companies, and this price was really out of their psychological expectations.
However, such as EMI Records, Warner Records, Polygram Records, Huaxing Records, and Xinli Records, are still actively raising cards. They all have leading male singers under their banners, and they are all competing for the throne of the first brother in the Hong Kong music scene.
Tan Yilin, Xu Guanjie, Guan Zhengjie, Luo Wen, Zhang Guorong, Chen Baiqiang, Lin Zixiang......
There are so many singers who have the strength to compete for the first brother, and what is lacking is nothing more than opportunities.
And a good song is undoubtedly the best opportunity for singers.
shouted another 330,000, Warner and Xinli Records 6 continued to retreat, leaving only Polygram, Baidai, and Huaxing three records to compete.
These three record companies now have singers who can compete for a brother, Polygram has Tan Xulin, Baidai has Chen Baiqiang, Huaxing has Luo Wen and Zhang Guorong, no matter which company gets this song, it can help its singer to ascend to the throne of the first brother.
Although Han Jin is also a Hong Kong singer, because he has now gone to the Japan exhibition and will go to the Taiwan music exhibition in the near future, the focus is no longer on Hong Kong, so he is automatically ignored.
Just like after Deng Lijun went to the Japan Exhibition, when the Taiwanese music scene selected the first sister, she would no longer be included.
In addition, Han Jin was originally a bug-level singer, too much more than other singers, and he couldn't be compared with him at all. So everyone deliberately ignored him when they were reviewing.
"Three hundred and thirty-five thousand!" "Three hundred and forty thousand!" "Three hundred and forty-five thousand!" "Three hundred and fifty thousand!" "Three hundred and fifty-five thousand!"
When he shouted 360,000, Huaxing couldn't support it and reluctantly retreated.
After all, it is just a subsidiary of TVB, and Boss Shao's business philosophy is to do more with less, and it is already quite hard to get 350,000 yuan.
"Three hundred and sixty thousand!" "Thirty-six thousand five!" "Three hundred and seventy thousand!" "Three hundred and seventy-five thousand!"
When it was shouted to 380,000, Baidai couldn't hold it anymore.
Chen Baiqiang took the literary route, while Tan Yilin took the commercial route, so the return rate was naturally not so high.
380,000 Hong Kong dollars were invested, and I don't know when I will be able to earn it back.
On the contrary, if Tan Yilin gets this song, he only needs to hold another concert. The appearance fee alone is much more than that.
"Three hundred and ninety-thousand!" That's when it happened. Chen Baiqiang stood up and shouted to himself.
He also likes this song very much, and he also has a deep sense of crisis now.
Before that, he was much more popular than Zhang Guorong, and he and Alan Tam were both quasi-first-line singers. But now Tan Yilin has become a first-line singer, but he is still staying in a quasi-first-line position. Even Zhang Guorong's recent popularity has already surpassed his momentum.
This naturally made Chen Baiqiang feel very nervous. Even if he has no desires and no desires. In the face of the dispute between the first brother, it will not be so calm. So this time, EMI Records withdrew from the competition. But for the sake of his future, he still stood up bravely.
Seeing Chen Baiqiang standing up, everyone couldn't help but be stunned. Representatives of Polygram Records also had some headaches.
Just like Sister Xiaofeng shouted the price at the last moment before, for these famous singers, one or two hundred thousand is nothing at all, shoot an advertisement, make a movie, run an announcement, and earn it back in a few days. But it is not easy for the record company to make every penny, and I really dare not compete with these big-name singers.
Just when the representative of Polygram Records hesitated, Huang Zhan began to shout the final price!
"Three hundred and ninety-thousand, one time!" "Three hundred and ninety-thousand, twice!" "Three hundred and ninety-thousand, three ......"
At the last moment, suddenly a person stood up in the audience and shouted, "500,000!" ”
Everyone turned their heads in surprise, but saw that it was Tan Yanlin's good friend Chen Baixiang standing there with a big grin.
And Chen Baiqiang saw him stand up, but he couldn't help but turn pale.
"Wow!" There was an exclamation from the audience.
The sky-high price of 500,000 is really unimaginable!
Huang Zhan felt that his hands were starting to tremble, "500,000!" Oh my God, from the time I started writing songs to the present, it doesn't add up enough to that. Is this still a song auctioned now, it's worth more than those rare antiques! ”
After being stunned for a while, Huang Zhan smiled reluctantly, "500,000, is there anyone who offers a higher price?" ”
"Five hundred thousand, for the first time!"
"Five hundred thousand, the second time!"
"Five hundred thousand, the third time!"
Syllable!
"Congratulations!"
"This concludes this auction, thank you again. We have specially prepared a dinner party, please move to the restaurant next door! Han Jin came up to the stage at this time and said with a smile.
After admiring the extremely popular auction, the crowd went to the next hall to enjoy the dinner with satisfaction. They really have too much to talk about, too much to talk about, too much to emotional, otherwise they will all explode.
The successful bidder is invited to another room to complete the final transaction.
The auction was audited and fetched HK$4.11 million, with an average price of over HK$200,000 per song.
After deducting the 410,000 donated to the Hong Kong Musicians Association, and then excluding the venue rental fees and other miscellaneous expenses, Han Jin's income this time exceeded 3.6 million Hong Kong dollars, which is really an amazing income.
At the dinner, when Han Jin came out to announce the result, it caused a cheer from everyone present.
Although everyone speculated that this auction would be successful, they did not expect it to be so successful, which was really unexpected by everyone, and also proved that Han Jin's talent and popularity in Hong Kong today are truly unmatched.
"Ah Jin, congratulations, congratulations! It's amazing how successful this song auction is! Su Xiaoliang laughed.
"Thank you, thank you. It's true that everyone is cheering. Han Jin said with a smile.
He himself didn't expect this auction to be so successful, earning more than three million at a time, which really made him a lot of money.
……
The next day, the news of the "Song Auction" made the front pages of major newspapers in Hong Kong.
The fact that a song can be sold for a sky-high price of 500,000 Hong Kong dollars really shocked Hong Kong citizens.
You must know that in '84, the monthly salary of ordinary workers in Hong Kong was only 2,000 Hong Kong dollars.
500,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is really something that ordinary people may not be able to save in a lifetime.
As soon as the news came out, Han Jin once again became a man of the year in Hong Kong, and even Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, Taiwan and other places reported on the incident, which became a world anecdote.
And the song "The Root of Love", which is worth half a million. Not yet available. It has attracted a lot of attention. Everyone wondered what kind of good song it was, and how it could be sold for such a high price.
Polygram Records announced that "The Root of Love" will be included in Tan Yilin's latest album and will be released soon. Meet the fans.
As soon as the news was announced. It caused a sensation in the city again.
Tan Yilin's exposure once surged. even once compared with Han Jin.
The order for the new album is also as high as 200,000 copies, and before it works, the capital has been earned.
And other male singers such as Zhang Guorong, Chen Baiqiang, Luo Wen, etc. have all become his foils. began to be collectively sung down by the media in Hong Kong.
In particular, Chen Baiqiang, who failed in this bidding, became an arrow target, and was soured as a self-conscious force, using his mantis arm as a car, and using his body as a stepping stone for Tan Xulin's upward movement.
Han Jin also appreciates Tan Yanlin's sky-high price for buying songs.
bought songs at a sky-high price of 500,000 yuan, and suddenly stole most of the limelight from the song auction.
Now when people mention that auction, in addition to remembering that Han Jin made a lot of money, the only thing they remember is that Tan Linglin spent 500,000 yuan to buy songs.
As for the companies and singers who bought other songs, they were completely ignored.
From this point of view, although 500,000 Hong Kong dollars is a little expensive, it is worth the money and the advertising benefits are huge.
……
All the transactions in the auction were completed on the same day, and the next day Han Jin donated 420,000 Hong Kong dollars to the Hong Kong Musicians Association, and exchanged for the title of honorary vice president.
The Hong Kong Musicians Association is profitable, Han Jin is famous, mutual benefit and win-win, everyone is happy!
After the song auction ended, Han Jin officially entered the filming crew of "Shanghai Night".
He originally planned to rush to Taiwan to prepare a new album as much as possible, but because Director Xu Ke was sincerely invited three times and twice, he had no choice but to agree to him.
In "Shanghai Night", Han Jin wants to work with Ye Qianwen and Zhang Aijia.
Ye Qianwen is already very familiar with him, a smug ghost girl character, active and enthusiastic, completely ignoring whether others can stand it or not.
Miss Zhang Aijia is the first time he has met, and he knows that she is a talented woman, singing, acting, directing, and producing, all of them, especially in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
She has a deep family background, has deep connections in Taiwan's political and business circles, and is even a classmate of Ma Ying-jeou's wife, Zhou Meiqing. Her first husband was the Hong Kong bureau chief of the Associated Press.
She is not only the veteran of Taiwan's Rolling Stone Records, but also has a close relationship with talented musicians such as Luo Dayou, Li Zongsheng, and Hou Dejian, and together they have promoted the rise of Taiwan's local music.
Luo Dayou called her a little sister and helped her write the song "Childhood". Li Zongsheng called her "Sister Zhang" and wrote the song "The Price of Love" for her.
In the 70s, she was the flower of Golden Harvest Film Company and starred in many movies. Her name "Aijia" means "love Jiahe". She is also the beloved apprentice of Hu Jinquan, one of the three major directors in Hong Kong, and starred in the movie "Legend in the Mountains" directed by him.
In the 80s, he and director Xu Anhua teamed up with Bigao Company to make the New Wave classic film "Crazy Robbery". After that, he joined Xinyicheng, cooperated closely with Xinyicheng Seven Monsters, and became the head of Xinyicheng Film Company's Taiwan branch.
starred in the "Best Partner" series that has repeatedly broken box office records and is a classic masterpiece of Hong Kong films. The famous movie "The Wrong Car" was also planned by her.
In addition, she has won two Academy Awards for Best Actress, two Golden Horse Awards for Best Actress, and one Golden Horse Award for Best Supporting Actress. There is also the Hong Kong Association Golden Bauhinia Award for Best Actress, as well as the Best Film and Best Screenplay at the Asia-Pacific Film Festival.
Looking at her resume, it is ridiculously thick. Those so-called "life winners" are weak in front of her.
Zhang Aijia couldn't help but be stunned when she saw Han Jin.
This young man's fame in Hong Kong is really not ordinary, even she is a little thunderous, and I often hear people mention it. But I didn't expect it to be such a young and handsome big boy.
She has seen a lot of musical talents, Hou Dejian, Luo Dayou, Tao Dawei...... But he is still the only one who is so young, so handsome, and so famous so early.
Knowing that Han Jin also joined Rolling Stone Records, Zhang Aijia was very happy. She herself was one of the first singers to sign to Rolling Stone.
"Aijia, this is Han Jin~" Xu Ke introduced with a smile, "Han Jin, this is Miss Zhang Aijia." ”
"Hello, Miss Zhang! It's an honor to work with you this time! Han Jin said with a smile.
"It's a pity, my name is like thunder." Zhang Aijia also smiled, "I heard that you signed a contract with Taiwan Rolling Stone Records, right?" ”
"Yes, Miss Zhang is really well-informed." Han Jin nodded with a smile.
"Then you have to call me senior sister in the future, I am the founding father of Rolling Stone Records." Zhang Aijia said with a smile.
"Senior sister?!" Han Jin was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but think of the woman who was still waiting for him in Taiwan, "Shall I call you Sister Zhang?" ”
Senior sister, I can only call one woman. (To be continued!)
