217 [Song of a Thousand Thousand Que]
"Hype! This is purely an attempt to take advantage of the malicious hype of the singing contest...... This Kang Jianfei! Fang Yihua slammed the newspaper on the coffee table, if it weren't for Shao Yifu's presence, I'm afraid she would have been so angry that she would have thrown things at home.
The newspaper about Anita Mui came out soon, and the news content was as expected, that is, Kang Jianfei signed Anita Mui, while Fang Yihua and Huaxing Company were ridiculed as having no vision, and they even bought and returned the pearls when they held a singing contest.
How many things has Shao Yifu experienced in his life? Before graduating from middle school, he and his brother pushed the projector around the Nanyang countryside; In 1931, he went to the United States to buy sound film equipment, highlighting the silence of the ship's landing, and Shao Yifu floated at sea for a day and a night with a wooden plank before being rescued; In the 30s, the Shaw Brothers company had already laid down a country in Hong Kong and Nanyang, but all the theaters and equipment were taken away by the Rì army, the company was destroyed, and Shao Yifu himself was arrested for filming anti-rì movies, and his family spent a lot of money to save him from the fate of eating guns; The current Shaw Brothers Company in Hong Kong was re-established by Shaw Yifu alone after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War.
After these strong winds and waves, Shao Yifu will be angry because of this matter? Looking at the angry concubine, he couldn't help but smile and said: "Relieved, relieved, just a singer, I can't be angry." β
Fang Yihua said angrily: "I'm not angry because of that singer, but Kang Jianfei's decrepit boy clearly wants to use me to hype, and he is slapping me in the face in front of millions of Hong Kong people!" β
Shao Yifu said: "Things have happened, it's useless for you to be angry." The most important thing now is to send out the record of the champion of the singing competition, as long as the champion's record sales exceed that Anita Mui, who can say anything about you? β
was told by Shao Yifu, Fang Yihua could only hold back his anger in his heart and said, "I'll go to Huaxing Company to have a look!" β
Shao Yifu closed his eyes and said, "Go ahead." β
asked the driver to drive the car out, Fang Yihua turned on the car radio by himself, and after about ten minutes, there was such a sentence on the radio: "...... Well, what will be played below is the most popular song in Hong Kong in the past two days, written and composed by Mr. Kang Jianfei, and sung by Miss Anita Mui "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que" ......"
The driver knew that this incident made Fang Yihua angry, and asked cautiously: "Ms. Fang, do you want to turn the table?" β
Fang Yihua closed her eyes and leaned back on her seat and said, "No." β
"Looking back slowly, the night that once belonged to each other;
Honghong is still you, giving me the sun in my heart;
If you shed silly tears, you hope to be compassionate and forgiving;
Farewell to you tomorrow morning, the road may be long and lonely
β¦β¦β
The singer of "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que" floated out of the car radio, and Fang Yihua listened silently for a while. Although Fang Yihua was very dissatisfied with Kang Jianfei's use of her to hype, she had to admit that this "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que" is perfect in all aspects, whether it is lyrics or singing, and she can't find any flaws.
The judges of the final of the Chinese Rookie Singing Contest are Huang Zhan and others, but the judges of the knockout competition are well-known singers and music producers of Huaxing Company. Fang Yihua has no choice but to scold the company's music producer, she has a good reason to scold, Anita Mui is such a good singer, she was eliminated before she entered the semi-finals, and she also signed it for other companies, and it was enough to fire them for squid.
When Fang Yihua heard "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que" last night, she called up the video of Anita Mui's competition overnight, and found that she was not behaving well, as if she had caught a cold for several days in a row.
Can Fang Yihua use this excuse to explain?
Obviously not, the more she explained, the more unclear she became, because Kang Jianfei fell in love with Anita Mui at a glance by watching TVB's games. This kind of excuse can only prove Kang Jianfei's sharp eyes.
In just a few days, "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que" has become so popular that even children of a few years old can hum a few words. It's a pity that Fengxing Records has not released records yet, and music fans can only listen to songs from the radio if they want to listen to them.
Some fanatical fans even wrote letters or called the radio, or ran to the popular record company, strongly demanding that Anita Mui release a record.
And in the song and dance hall where Anita Mui originally sang, the boss personally went to Anita Mui's house to invite her to sing, but she didn't move at all. In the end, she had to retreat and invite Anita Mui's sister Mei Aifang to sing the song "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que", and the remuneration for singing increased more than three times.
Gu Jiahui has been paying attention to Kang Jianfei's music works since listening to "The Original Scenery of Hometown". It's a pity that except for writing songs for the two movies "The Wrong Car" and "Happy Ghost 2", Kang Jianfei has never had any more music works.
As soon as "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que" came out, Gu Jiahui wrote in his music review column: "Affectionate, tender like water, interpreting a woman's ten thousand styles and the slightest parting feeling to tears, this is definitely a masterpiece in Cantonese songs, and it will become a classic after many years...... After listening to Kang Jianfei's "The Original Scenery of Hometown", and then listening to the song "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que" written by him, you will know that he is a man with a story......"
And Huang Zhan's girlfriend, Lin Yanni, a famous talented woman, wrote: "In Hong Kong, no man understands women better than Kang Jianfei." After watching "Sword and Horse", I have become a loyal fan of him; Now listening to this "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que", I find that I have become a fan of him. In addition, I have to say that Anita Mui, a little girl who has just turned 18 years old, can sing this soulful song to the slightest, which is really amazing......"
After being popular for more than a week, Kang Jianfei saw that the hunger marketing was enough, and finally agreed to let Deng Yimin release Anita Mui, and the name of the album was "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que".

St. Stephen's Church Secondary School, Sai Ying Pun, Hong Kong.
The three middle school girls rushed out of the school gate quickly, and the girl who ran behind the most accidentally broke her foot, so she could only jump and jump in pain to catch up.
The two girls in front of the run came back to their senses and shouted at the girl who was stumbling: "Amin, hurry up!" β
Zhou Huimin said angrily: "My foot is broken, you go first." β
The two girls hurriedly ran back, helped Zhou Huimin and asked, "Is it painful?" β
Zhou Huimin walked a few more steps and said, "It hurt when I first arrived, but now it's much better." β
Another girl said, "Let's go, maybe the record will be sold out if it's too late." β
The three girls trotted to the video store together, and asked the boss: "Uncle, is there any "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que"?" β
The boss smiled: "Yes, I just arrived in the morning, there is vinyl and tape, what kind do you want?" β
"We want three cassettes!" The three girls said happily.
After buying the tape, because Zhou Huimin's home was closest to the school, the three girls decided to go to her house first and listen to the tape completely.
Zhou Huimin's family is in an old apartment building, and her father died of illness before she was born. In order to earn money to support the family, my mother not only worked several jobs during the day, but also went to a restaurant to work as a cook at night.
When he was a child, Zhou Huimin's family was very poor and did not have good clothes and good toys. But Zhou's mother loves her very much, once Christmas, her mother asked Zhou Huimin to hang her socks on the bedside, and the next day she got up with an extra robot dog in the socks, and the price of the robot dog was equivalent to half a month's salary of her mother.
It is precisely because of Zhou's mother's hard work that although Zhou Huimin's family is not very wealthy now, the economic situation is quite acceptable.
When she was still downstairs, Zhou Huimin said to her two female classmates: "Yaqin, Ah Wei, don't tell my mother that I also bought the song tape, just say that you bought it." β
Ah Wei said strangely: "For what? β
Zhou Huimin was a little embarrassed and said: "I'm not embarrassed to ask my mother for money, the money I brought to buy the song was saved by eating these days." β
After explaining, the three girls ran to Zhou Huimin's house, but found that there was no one in the house at all, and they all relaxed.
Zhou Huimin moved out of the tape recorder that he had saved up for several years to buy, and the three girls sat down around the tape recorder and put the tape of "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que" into it.
With the familiar music playing, the three girls who had been singing this song for a long time sang along with the voice coming from the tape recorder.
After the release of "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que", the second song is the Cantonese version of "Dream Chaser", and the official song name is "Heavenly Love".
"I don't say a word of forgiveness / At this moment, life is condensing;
You've searched for a lost voice in the past,
Fall rì go away to the people to pray / keep the green chūn for a moment,
Wind and rain thoughts, there will always be sighs in dreams
β¦β¦β
The three girls listened to the lyrics on the tape wrapper, and only after listening to it did they sigh: "This song "Heavenly Love" is also very good, and it is also a lyric and song written by Kang Jianfei. β
"Anita Mui also sings well."
"I have already decided, I will sing Sister Amei's "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que" on the school's anniversary this year."
ββ¦β¦β
After the three girls chattered, they continued to listen to the song.
This album has a total of 12 songs, three of which were written by Kang Jianfei, in addition to "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que" and "Heavenly Love", there is also a "Song of the Sunset" behind the most lu.
"Hey, why is it the most beautiful song of a thousand thousand que?" After Zhou Huimin heard the most lush, he couldn't help but say when he only heard the familiar prelude.
Yaqin said in surprise: "Amin, listen, "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que" and "Song of the Sunset" are the same, but the lyrics are different. β
"Really!" Zhou Huimin stared at the lyrics and said.
In the Hong Kong music scene in the 80s, there were the famous Leslie Cheung and Alan Tam's "Tan Zhang Fight", and Anita Mui and Chan Wai Xian's "Mei Chen Dispute".
As a result of Alan Tam's competition, Alan Tam announced that he would no longer compete for the xìng award, and Leslie Cheung directly announced the launch of the music scene. And the dispute between Mei and Chen is similar, ending with Anita Mui's statement that she will no longer accept the award and Chen Huixian leaving the United States to launch the music scene.
When the dispute between Mei and Chen was the most intense, it was Anita Mui's "Sunset Song" and Chen Huixian's "Thousand Thousand Que Song" in the ring. In fact, the tunes of the two songs are the same, but the lyrics are different, and they are both covered from a rì song.
Now, the original song of the rì book has not been written, and Kang Jianfei simply threw "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que" and "Song of the Sunset" to Anita Mui.
