931 [Demon Rock Lecture]
Wang Feng, known as Wang leather pants, is the sound emperor in the eyes of classmate Zhang. One?? Reading?? ?? 1 K?A?N?S?H?U?· COM
Compared with his predecessors such as Dou Wei and He Yong, his hair is obviously not long enough. Because he was a violinist in the National Ballet of China a while ago, he naturally couldn't eat the national meal, and his hair just covered his ears.
Wang Feng formed a band with his friends some time ago, called No. 43 Baojia Street. At first, he was just secretly engaged in underground performances, but later heard that Xiongfei Records was signing rock singers, so he took a sample to try his luck, and the result was really valued and signed.
Under the excitement of Wang Feng, he directly quit the iron rice bowl of the National Ballet of China, worked hard behind closed doors, and wrote three original rock songs within a month.
For the rock predecessors who have become famous, Wang Feng and his friends have some admiration, but they are a little disgusted. His bands are all from the Central Conservatory of Music, with solid foundations, high musical literacy, and great personal qualities.
But what about the Zero Point Band, the Tang Dynasty Band, Dou Wei, and He Yong? Most of them are wild roads, the habits of the rivers and lakes are very heavy, and they have to scold their mothers when they open their mouths, and it is difficult for Wang Feng and these people to get together.
After the signing ceremony, all the singers were called together for a meeting. There were more than 20 people in the black press, and the already small conference room was crowded.
Of course, these contracted singers don't usually get paid, but the company will help them contact the show. If anyone can come up with a good work, the company will also help them release an album, and if someone becomes completely popular, they can also help them hold a concert.
Of course, concerts are just extravagant expectations. Nowadays, rock is relatively niche in the mainland market, although there are many fans, but scattered all over the country, you have a concert in the magic capital, and it is impossible for fans to come by plane and train.

Not to mention the mainland, even in Hong Kong, most people regard rock music as a ghost, snake and god, and only a few can succeed, such as beyond and Tai Chi bands, and their works are relatively popular and popular.
Zhang Peiren clapped his hands and said, "Everyone be quiet, now I invite Mr. Kang Jianfei to speak." ”
Wang Feng and his little friends immediately shut up, but unfortunately they didn't care about a few thorns, and continued to chatter below, chatting about their own affairs.
Kang Jianfei glanced at the singers and said, "I plan to hold a rock night at the Hong Kong Red Stadium in December, gathering rock singers from both sides of the strait and three places to perform together. If you don't want to go, you can get out of the conference room immediately, and if you want to go, just sit down honestly and quietly! ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone stopped talking.
These rock singers have personalities, but they are also human beings, and they have ** as individuals.
They may despise money and authority, but to be on stage at the Hong Kong Red Pavilion is too tempting for rock people who can only perform underground in the mainland.
Kang Jianfei continued: "You are all engaged in art, it is normal to have a little personality, and you can't create good rock works by following the rules. It's not like those who are engaged in pop music, drinking coffee and following the routine, and can write several songs a day, which is boring! ”
"Hehehe......" Many rock singers laughed below.
They really look down on people who play pop music, Kang Jianfei's words narrowed the distance between each other very easily, and subconsciously regarded Kang Jianfei as their own.
Kang Jianfei said: "I like rock and roll very much, and Hong Kong's beyond was discovered by me. It is precisely because I like it that I established Magic Rock Records today to bring together friends who love rock and roll, in order to provide a platform for everyone. Promote rock music in China and let more people like rock 'n' roll. I hope that in the next three years, rock singers can hold concerts at the Beijing Gongti Center, instead of only engaging in underground performances and guerrilla fights like now! ”
"Good!" Wang Feng was enthusiastic when he heard this, and took the lead in raising his hand to cheer.
Dou Wei glanced at Wang Feng and muttered, "Shabi! ”
In fact, Dou Wei is also a little excited in his heart, who doesn't want his works to be popular? Who wants to do an underground show all day long instead of going to a stadium where tens of thousands of people perform?
It's just that these rock singers are also hypocritical, and they have obviously been moved by Kang Jianfei's words, but they still pretend to be indifferent on the surface.
Kang Jianfei quickly got to the point: "But those who engage in rock and roll must also abide by the law, and if something happens to you, the company will try its best to help you settle it." But if anyone dares to break the contract and dare to eat inside and out, it is not to talk about the morality of the rivers and lakes, not to give me Kang someone face, and all the consequences are at their own risk! I won't say who it is here. ”
Including He Yong, several singers blushed, and they had a lot of small actions. It's not that I want to mess around, but I don't like to save money for rock and roll, I want to spend as much as I earn, and if I don't have enough money, I have to find a way, and it's completely inappropriate to sell them with a song or two behind the company's back.
The Zero Point Band is the old man of Xiongfei Records, and the lead singer Zhou Xiaoou patted the table and said: "Don't worry, boss, our Zero Point Band will never do that kind of embarrassing thing!" ”
"Lao Zhou is good, I am very optimistic about you. But I think you can cut your long hair and shave your head bigger, which makes it more stylish. Kang Jianfei said with a smile, Zhou Xiaoou and a few of them are considered to be the mainstream among the non-mainstream, and their works are more popular. The song "Love Me or Not" was also popular all over the country, and many young people sang "Love me or not, do you love me" to the girl.
Zhou Xiaoou touched his long hair that had grown for several years, and said happily: "Okay, I'll shave my head when I go back." ”
"Sycophants!" Many singers quietly despise this person.
Kang Jianfei finally said: "In the future, the singers under the company, once there is any breach of contract, no matter how popular you are and how much money you can make to the company, they will be banned and investigated for legal responsibility!" ”
This is the main purpose of Kang Jianfei's words, because these sub-rock singers are too difficult to control.
After Kang Jianfei finished speaking, Zhang Peiren continued: "I'll talk about the red concert in mid-December, to be honest, I don't have a bottom in my heart now. Because the audience is all Hong Kongers, some of them don't even understand Mandarin. I don't know if your music will be accepted in Hong Kong, but one thing is clear, this concert will definitely lose money. Mr. Kang's money is all hard-earned, not from the wind, he lost money to hold a concert for you, I hope you can also remember it. ”
Classmate Wang Feng dragged the text and said: "You treat me as a countryman, and I should repay me as a countryman!" ”
When it came to the hearts of many singers, they were also very moved by this, so they collectively gave Wang Feng a roll of the eyes.
Zhang Peiren said: "If you want to go to the red concert, go to me to register after the meeting, and bring your best masterpiece by the way!" ”
These guys didn't have a proper meeting at the meeting, but they were very enthusiastic when they signed up, and they couldn't wait to fly to Hong Kong immediately.
The Red Rock Night in 1994 had a very terrifying impact and shocked Hong Kong people. At that time, Huang Qiusheng was also watching at the scene, and when He Yong sang "Garbage Dump", Huang Qiusheng was so excited that he ran wildly while tearing his clothes to shreds.
The Red Rock Night in another time and space was very difficult to organize, and on the premise of losing money, it was almost planned to be aborted. Now with Kang Jianfei's support, it will be much easier and smoother, and the singers of the entire Hong Kong music scene have to sell face, and it is necessary to watch the performance in person.
