980 [True Destiny Project]

After Zhao Yazhi decided to make a comeback starring in "The Legend of the New White Lady", Kang Jianfei immediately called the TV production company. Read the book ???· 1?K?A?NSHU.COM, IN ADDITION TO DETERMINING THE THREE LEADING ACTORS ZHAO YAZHI, ZHU AND YE TONG, HE ALSO ASKED LI HANXIANG TO BE THE DIRECTOR BY NAME, BECAUSE HE IS A MASTER OF HUANGMEI OPERA FILMS. If you let an ordinary director shoot it, you will definitely not be able to shoot the charm it should have.

Li Hanxiang has been making movies for the past few years, but unfortunately he can't keep up with the times more and more, almost making a fight, and few companies are willing to invite him.

When Oriental Television Production Company found Li Hanxiang, the old gentleman was recuperating in the hospital, and he was not lightly ill, his health was deteriorating, and he was obviously no longer qualified for the director's position.

Although Li Hanxiang couldn't go out of the mountain to be a director in person, he recommended his old partner Xia Zuhui, and Xia Zuhui happened to be the director of the original "The Legend of the New White Lady". It's a coincidence to go around in a big circle and come back again.

Although Xia Zuhui lives in Hong Kong, he often runs around the Taiwan Strait and three places, and is now working as an opera director for a TV series in Taiwan. After receiving the invitation, he immediately rushed back to Hong Kong and was quite excited to get the script of "The Legend of the New White Lady", because this drama is so to his taste.

Just when Xia Zuhui was in full swing to form the crew, Ye Zipei also came to Hong Kong, she came to attend the year-end shareholders' meeting of Oriental Music Group, Kang Jianfei attended various year-end meetings during this time, and she was bored to death.

Oriental Music Group is headquartered in Hong Kong, and its president is Cheng Shengming, who has held senior positions at Warner Records' Atlantic Records. In 1990, Time and Warner merged, and Atlantic Records invested in the establishment of Interscope Records, and Cheng Shengming was transferred to the new company as executive vice president.

With the development and growth of Interscope Records, Cheng Shengming, who is Chinese, was gradually excluded from the decision-making circle, and he returned to Hong Kong in a fit of anger, and joined the Oriental Music Group through a friend's introduction, and was directly appointed as the vice president of the group by Kang Jianfei. Because of his super work ability, this guy is now the president.

In addition to Cheng Shengming and Ye Zipei, there were also Peng Guohua and Wu Chuchu of Taiwan's UFO Records, Zhang Peiren of Rolling Stone Records in the mainland, Jiang Zhongguo of South Korean Trend Records, Xu Huanliang and Huang Yuancheng of Singapore's Sea Butterfly Records, Matsuura Katsujin of RB Ai Hui Music, and Deng Yimin of Hong Kong Popular Records??? ?One? See?? Book? LOOK·1?K?A?N?S?H?U?· COM?

Everyone sat down together and talked about the situation next year, analyzed the current situation of the global music market, and then discussed the cooperation between companies next year.

Kang Jianfei has been sitting next to him and listening, interjecting from time to time.

After a long time, Deng Yimin suddenly said: "Huaxing Records is dying, I want to invite Mr. Xu and Mr. Huang of Haidie Records to join forces to eat it." ”

"Huaxing Records is no longer good?" Kang Jianfei was quite surprised, it was Shao Yifu's company, and there was TVB behind him to help, why couldn't it?

In fact, Huaxing Records is really not good. Its main business is concentrated in Hong Kong, but it has been hit by popular records and Polygram, and has been losing money for two consecutive years. Even if there is no popular record, Huaxing Records, which was originally in time and space, will be sold to the South China Morning Post Group, and now it is only half a year ahead of schedule.

Xu Huanliang very much agreed with Deng Yimin's suggestion, because Huaxing Records also has several branches in Southeast Asia, and eating Huaxing will be conducive to the expansion of Haidie Records, he said: "The South China Morning Post seems to be in talks with Huaxing about the acquisition, and we have to do it quickly." ”

Cheng Shengming suddenly interjected: "The group's layout in Hong Kong and Nanyang is mature, and there is no need to acquire another Huaxing, which will only make our organizational structure more bloated." ”

Deng Yimin said: "But the acquisition of Huaxing is more beneficial to us! ”

Cheng Shengming said: "There is really no need to acquire, we just need to take advantage of the opportunity of Huaxing to change hands and dig up its excellent producers and singers." ”

Deng Yimin and Xu Huanliang still wanted to argue again, but Kang Jianfei suddenly said: "It's so decided, there is no need to buy Huaxing." Mr. Deng and Mr. Xu, you will make arrangements as soon as you go back, and strive to poach the outstanding employees of Huaxing Records. ”

"Okay." Deng Yimin and Xu Huanliang said helplessly. The chairman has spoken, what else can they say?

Although Huaxing Records is losing money now, it does have many good singers, such as Xu Zhian, Eason Chan, Sammi Cheng, Coco Li and so on. In addition, Huaxing also has several gold medal producers, which are more precious than singers, red singers are like eggs, and gold medal music producers are hens that lay eggs.

If all these people are dug up, then Huaxing Records will only be left with a pile of garbage, and the South China Morning Post Group can only shout a headache even if it buys the past.

When the meeting ended, Kang Jianfei specially left Cheng Shengming behind and said: "The Asian side has developed almost completely, and it is time to start entering the American market." ”

"It's hard." Cheng Shengming only replied with two words.

Kang Jianfei said: "No matter how difficult it is, you have to try." ”

Cheng Shengming said: "If you want to expand in the United States, there is only one way left, which is to buy a local record company in the United States and use local American singers to occupy the market, and it is impossible for Chinese singers to enter it." ”

Of course, Kang Jianfei knows that if European and American record companies want to expand in Asia, they can only buy Asian companies and use Asian singers, and the cultural gap between the East and the West is too serious.

"How about acquiring Polygram?" Kang Jianfei asked with a smile.

"Forehead......" Cheng Shengming was speechless for an instant, and reacted for a long time before he smiled bitterly, "Mr. Kang, you want to swallow an elephant." ”

For the children born in the 90s and 00s, the name Polygram may be very unfamiliar, but it is indeed the oldest, largest and strongest record company in the world in the 90s.

"Hehe, I'm just talking." Kang Jianfei said with a smile. He only remembered that PolyGram was acquired by Universal Music before 2000, but he didn't know the specific reason and when.

In fact, Polygram's bosses have a good eye. The reason why they sold PolyGram was that they thought that traditional records would be replaced by digital (online) music, so they sold PolyCrystal in 1999 and sold it for a very high price. As a result, with the rise of the Internet, digital music will crowd out the traditional record market a few years later, exactly as PolyGram's decision-makers predicted.

Kang Jianfei thought for a while, wrote down three English names and said: "You set out to acquire a music company in the United States, the scale does not need to be too large, and you can find these three girls by the way." ”

"Beyoncé, Britney, Christina," Cheng Shengming glanced at it and said with a wry smile, "These three names are in the United States, not ten thousand, but eight thousand, how do you let me find them?" ”

Kang Jianfei said: "Of course, it's a little famous, so I will let you look for it." When I went to the United States a few years ago, I kept an eye on these three girls and thought they had great potential. Beyoncé once joined a singing group called True Destiny, Britney Spears and Christina are both members of Disney's Mickey Mouse Club, you can find out if you go to the United States. ”

"That's good." Cheng Shengming breathed a sigh of relief. What he didn't expect was that among the three girls, Christina had just turned 15 years old, while Beyoncé and Britney were both only 14 years old, each younger than the other.

Kang Jianfei can't help it, he is not familiar with American singers, and there are even fewer who have not debuted in the mid-90s and are of the right age.

Maybe it's luck, Cheng Shengming hired a private investigator in the United States, and it only took a month to get the exact good news:

After Beyoncé disbanded, she first signed with Erica Records, but was abandoned by the company last year and had to return to her hometown;

After the disbandment of MMC, Britney had no choice but to return to the town to attend middle school, and now she has formed a student band at the school;

Christina's situation is slightly better, after the dissolution of MMC, she began to participate in the recording of record demos, which can not only earn some living expenses but also have the opportunity to be noticed by the record company. Last year, she recorded a song for RB singer Keisan Nakanishi, and it became a bestseller. But this doesn't help, the sample singer is not a singer at all, and it is difficult to have a bright future.

These three are all big singers who will be popular all over the world in the future, Kang Jianfei suddenly didn't know how to operate after getting the news. Because they are too young now, many song styles are not suitable, and it is even more impossible to be sexy or sexy.

After thinking about it, Kang Jianfei decided to let them form a trio, and the name of the group was "True Destiny". When they all reach the age of 16, they will develop separately.

Haha, it's fun to tie these three chicks together.
