While Xu Guanwu was preparing a new album for his third brother, the lawyer hired by the superstar manager company sued Gui Zhihong to the court with a complaint, demanding that he compensate for the losses caused to the superstar manager company by directing movies for other companies without the permission of the company.

As soon as the news came out, the Hong Kong entertainment industry was in an uproar, and there were many discussions about this incident.

For a long time, because the Hong Kong film industry is mostly Chinese, the concept of the legal system is not too high, mainly focusing on human feelings and face. There are often contracts in hand, and they can also help other companies.

And the company often looks at the face of the person, and it is not too harsh, so occasionally going smuggling to make a little money is the default unspoken rule of everyone in the entertainment industry.

Director Li Hanxiang incarnated as Sima Ke and designed the script for director Zhu Mu, such as the "Flowers Flying in the Spring City" in the bed scene of Brother Cheng Long, which is his old man's handwriting. At the beginning of the establishment of New Art City, he also invited Wu Yusen of Golden Harvest to direct the entrepreneurial work "Funny Times".

As one of the big bosses, Mai Jia can also go over to film for the competitor Golden Harvest, and also combined the representative work "Best Partner" of New Art City with Golden Harvest's masterpiece "Five Lucky Stars" to create a "Best Lucky Star". Huang Baiming, who is also one of the big bosses, can also join forces with the Xu brothers to shoot "Family Carnival" and defeat "New Best Partner" of Xinyicheng during the Spring Festival...... The list goes on.

However, it is still very rare in Hong Kong to cause a lawsuit and take people to court.

Of course, Gui Zhihong's work this time is too outrageous, and the image of being called a "cold-blooded director" was damaged because of the injury of the actor caused by filming. This time, he filmed for his competitors privately. It can also be regarded as the first experience in the Hong Kong film industry. Such a bold director should indeed teach a lesson.

In a word. The entertainment industry has commented on the superstar manager's company's lawsuit against Gui Zhihong, and some think that the superstar manager's company is a big matter and unforgiving; There are also those who think that chickens and monkeys should be killed to set an example.

Compared with the discussion of the outside world, the person concerned, Gui Zhihong, is still there, and he is a jiashi who asks for money and has no life, and he doesn't even ask for lawyer fees. I went to court with this law book in my hand, and it was rumored to be a strange talk for a while.

Xu Guanwu didn't bother to pay attention to how much the court would fine, and his purpose was not to sue Gui Zhihong for bankruptcy, but to set an example for Hong Jingbao as Hong Jingbao said.

As long as the court sentences Gui Zhihong for breach of contract, compensates the company for its losses, and lets others see this example and know that they can't just breach the contract in the future.

In fact, this kind of thing is almost unimaginable in Hollywood, if a Hollywood actor violates the contract and takes over the job outside without permission, then the agency can really sue the actor to bankruptcy.

……

Produced an album for Xu Guanying. Xu Guanwu packed the ticket early, but later because he was too busy. I forgot about it. Now that he was reminded by others, he remembered it, which made Xu Guanwu feel embarrassed.

The scale of Yisheng Records is still not large, with only two or three big cats and kittens in Xu Xiaofeng and Wen Na Band. Although the sales of the records are very good, because of the small number of singers and the single genre of music, it is still a small generation in the Hong Kong record industry.

Xu Guanwu is usually busy planning movies, busy with investment, busy with media, and really doesn't pay much attention to Yisheng Records. First, I don't know much about the Hong Kong music scene now, I only know that the most popular singers in the 70s were Xu Guanjie, Wen Na Band, Xu Xiaofeng, Lin Zixiang, Luo Wen, Zhen Ni and so on.

The second is that the profit of making records is still too small, and selling 120,000 copies of a record is already a big hit, but the company's profit is only 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is not even a fraction of the box office of a movie, so how can Xu Guanwu be willing to engage in such a small business?

Although Ma Jiahua was the manager of Eternal Records before, he tapped out a powerful singer like Xu Xiaofeng, and also sold the records of Nanyang singers in Hong Kong, but his ability to make Yisheng Records bigger and stronger is still a little insufficient.

Xu Guanwu bought Eternal Records before and injected 10 million Hong Kong dollars for him to poach, but nearly a year has passed, and there is still only Xu Xiaofeng, and Wen Na Band sent it to the door naturally does not count.

This made Xu Guanwu disappointed in Ma Jiahua and had the idea of changing generals.

Xu Guanwu was busy helping Xu Guanying plan the album, and at the same time began to search for a talent to replace Ma Jiahua, and soon Zheng Donghan, the lead guitarist of the original Playboy Band, entered Xu Guanwu's sight.

Since Teddy Robin disbanded Playboy and went to Canada alone to find his musical ideals, Zheng Donghan switched to Yisheng Records and worked behind the scenes. He produced the first album of the band Wenner.

Xu Guanwu accidentally found his name in the list of employees, and then looked for his resume and knew that he was the Zheng Donghan, and couldn't help but be interested in him.

If Xu Guanwu is not mistaken, this Zheng Donghan should be Zheng Zhongji's father, who has served as the president of PolyGram and Universal Music Hong Kong, and then created his own gold medal Gale Records, which has launched many popular singers, and is a veritable predator in the music industry.

Xu Guanwu naturally admired his ability very much, so he specially brought him in and asked him to be in charge of Xu Guanying's album, so as to examine his work ability.

For Xu Guanying's album, Xu Guanwu specially wrote "My A-Ying Wife", "Whenever Changes", "Shrimp Girl with You", "Clown Love Song", etc., and the classic love songs sung by Xu Guanying in the future were written in advance.

Although Zheng Donghan knew that Xu Guanwu was a master of songwriting and composed many classic and beautiful songs, he was still a little shocked when he saw these songs he created with his own eyes.

Especially the song "My A-Ying's Wife", the lyrics and lyrics are really very consistent with the singer Xu Guanying, and there is nothing more suitable than this song.

"Mr. Xu, this song is simply amazing." Zheng Donghan couldn't help but admire.

Although he is also a master of creation and has written a lot of beautiful songs, he can't create songs like this "My Aying Wife", which is so suitable for singers.

Since ancient times, there is no first, there is no second, Zheng Donghan is willing to be the inferior.

"You don't need to make a fool of yourself, take these songs, invite a few songs from other songwriters, make up ten songs, and help A-Ying release an album." Xu Guanwu said with a smile.

"Mr. Xu, with all due respect, the style of these songs is not consistent, and they are barely placed in an album, which will only give people a feeling of astonishment. It's like doing Mass in the Wong Tai Sin Temple. Zheng Donghan hurriedly said.

Xu Guanwu was overjoyed, but his face frowned slightly, "Are you sarcastic that I don't know how to make records?" ”

"I didn't mean that, these songs written by Mr. Xu are very good, and if they are put on an album, the sales will definitely be very high. But for fans who can appreciate it, this album will still have some flaws. So I advocate that the slow song "Whenever Change" be taken out and saved for future albums. Zheng Donghan explained to Xu Guanwu in an orderly manner.

Xu Guanwu was very satisfied with Zheng Donghan in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, he just nodded coldly, "I have already handed over the production of this album to you, I won't interfere with what you do, but if the album sales are not high and the response is not good, you will be fully responsible." ”

"Okay, I won't let you down, Mr. Xu." Zheng Donghan nodded confidently.

……

Zheng Donghan's ability to do things is really good, and he soon raised ten songs for Xu Guanying, all of which are "ghost horse songs" with bright music style and humorous lyrics. Such as "My Aying Wife", "Shrimp Girl with You", "There is Water and Closed Eyes", "Clown Love Song" and so on.

The reason why all this kind of ghost horse song is used, Zheng Donghan is considering that Xu Guanying has made ghost horse comedy in recent years, and his image of a humorous ugly star has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and singing this kind of ghost horse song complements each other.

Hearing that the second brother Xu Guanwu was going to release an album for the third brother Xu Guanying, the fourth brother Xu Guanjie also volunteered to help and handed over the theme song "Deed of Sale" to the two brothers to sing together.

The eldest brother Xu Guanwen also crossed the border and wrote the lyrics of the song "There is Water and Closed Water" for the third brother Xu Guanying. The help of the whole family made Xu Guanying very touched and happy.

Just when he was busy recording an album in the recording studio, Zhao Yazhi also officially joined TVB and hosted the variety show "Big Heart".

The program "Big Heart and Careful Heart" was just launched by TVB, hosted by Zhao Yazhi and Lu Hipeng. Zhao Yazhi, who looks like a flower and moon, and Lu Hipeng, who has a strange appearance, is really a combination of beauty and beast, standing on the stage and showing her beauty, it already makes people feel very funny if she doesn't speak.

This show is divided into several groups of content, such as prize quizzes, celebrity interviews, gossip news, etc., which is typically large and complete, and it is the stage that variety shows have experienced at the beginning.

Like CCTV's earliest "Variety Show" and "Quyuan Miscellaneous", Nanhu Satellite TV's "Happy Camp", TVB's "Happy Tonight", all cover short dramas, songs and dances, interviews, games and many other content, just like a big platter, covering almost everything.

But with the development of TV and the segmentation of audiences, variety shows have also begun to develop into small and refined, such as "The Voice of China" and "Super Girl", which are simple drafts, "Husband Looks at You", "XX Rushes Forward", which are simple games, and "Luyu has an appointment", "Very Quiet Distance", which are simple interviews......

The segmentation of variety shows can not only attract the attention of the audience to the greatest extent, but also facilitate advertisers to place advertisements.

Xu Guanwu is used to watching the kind of small and refined variety shows in his previous life, and he can't think of watching the variety shows like "Big Heart and Careful Heart", which has a simple set, backward topic selection, and a dull variety show.

However, the sister-in-law Chen Jieying was very interested, and she personally stewed rock sugar bird's nest for Zhao Yazhi to moisten her throat, which made Xu Guanwu ashamed. (To be continued......)
