Chapter 202: "Unromantic Charges"

As the most prestigious record company in the past, although the sun is setting now, the influence is still there.

Many of the older generation of Jiang Xing were guests at the scene, almost all of them were well-known stars, not only these artists came to cheer, but even their peers also came.

For example, the other three very famous record giants in Xiangjiang are Huanxing, Xinyi, and Yingyu.

In the dinner hall, the stage layout has already been completed, and the guests have entered and sat down.

Of course, the seats were not filled.

Because there are still some artists and guests who are staying backstage, they will come down and sit down after they have to perform on stage.

The performers on stage are basically artists under Shi Yan, and of course there are also friendship performances, such as Xu Yueming, one of the four kings who left Rolling Stone many years ago and established an entertainment company on his own.

Different from Zhao Mo's original world, the four kings of this world, in the early years, were Shi Yan, Huanxing, Xinyi, and Yingyu, the four popular singers praised by the Xiangjiang record giants, and after the operation of the media, they were finally awarded the title of the Four Heavenly Kings.

In the era of industrial records, Mo lagged behind, and the "full covenant" appeared, and the three kings broke up with the original record company and established an independent entertainment company. So far, the remaining Heavenly King, who stayed under Huanxing Records, first signed a full contract, and it is said that the contract was changed later, otherwise, he would not be able to keep the Heavenly King.

Having said that, in this exhibition match for the 40th anniversary of Shi Yan, the heavyweight artists are all friendly guests invited by Boss Duan.

After an opening dance, the exhibition match officially kicked off.

The first appearances are all singers currently signed by Rolling Stone, and as the progress progresses, more and more well-known old singers appear with famous songs.

The reporters were excited, and the flashing lights kept flashing.

Because of this exhibition competition, the list of performance guests was not revealed, except for the information of a few highly popular singers who were exposed in advance, such as Xu Tianwang, who was revealed a few days ago to appear in the exhibition competition for the 40th anniversary of Shi Yan.

Other than that, most of the performers are kept secret.

Therefore, it all depends on luck to see what singers take the stage.

After a singer who had long since retired from the entertainment industry took the stage, many people present were surprised.

"Isn't this Boss Huang? It's been a long time since I've seen him sing. ”

"Hahaha, Boss Huang is over seventy this year, right? It's still a treasure knife that is not old. ”

"The relationship between Boss Huang and Boss Duan is very good......"

There are some relevant people in the entertainment industry, either in front of the stage or behind the scenes, and it is also extremely nostalgic to see the older generation of singers who have long since bid farewell to the entertainment industry reappear on the stage.

Not to mention media reporters, this one piece of information alone can make tomorrow's headlines.

"Yo yo yo, finally waited for Xu Tianwang to take the stage, which song do you say he will sing?"

"It should be "Telling the Truth to Each Other", this is his masterpiece."

A middle-aged man in his fifties wearing a trench coat walked onto the stage.

This is Xu Yueming, one of the Four Heavenly Kings.

The aura of the king of heaven is extraordinary, and when he is on the stage, he is like a fish in water, which is extremely natural.

Facing the many guests and cameras in the audience, Xu Yueming greeted everyone with a smile.

"I remember the last time I came to Rolling Stone to sing, it was the last time."

The humorous words made many people present laugh.

It seems that Xu Tianwang learned a lot of buzzwords while surfing the Internet.

"I am very happy to be able to participate in the 40th anniversary of Shi Yan, and I will have another of my old song "Tell the Truth to Each Other", I guess everyone is tired of listening to it, hahaha...... I wish Shi Yan is getting better and better under the leadership of Boss Duan. ”

The appearance of Xu Tianwang pushed the current atmosphere to a climax.

This song "Telling the Truth to Each Other" has a special meaning for Xu Yueming and Shi Yan.

Back then, 20-year-old Xu Yueming, because of his hobby of singing, participated in the amateur singing competition in the 18th district of Xiangjiang and won the third place.

At that time, the champion of each edition of this kind of competition would compete for the signing of major record companies.

Although Xu Yueming was only the third runner-up, he was appreciated by the boss of Shi Yanduan.

Xu Yueming, who came to Shiyan, got the opportunity to sing "Tell the Truth to Each Other".

In fact, this is a song that has been eliminated by other singers, but as a newcomer, Xu Yueming is good at singing, so he naturally won't dislike it.

After the release of Xu Yueming's debut album, "Telling the Truth to Each Other", it sold 200,000 copies in the Xiangjiang area alone.

200,000 copies, which doesn't seem to be much now, and Xiao Yun sold tens of millions of copies of a song last year.

But this is a physical record that was sold in the 80s, and both the buying crowd and the purchasing power are far less than they are now.

Under the regulations of the Heung Kong International Phonographic Association at that time, 25,000 was counted as a gold record, 50,000 was counted as a platinum record, 100,000 was counted as a double platinum, 150,000 was counted as a triple platinum, and so on.

As the first rookie of Xu Yueming, he got four platinum results.

This achievement was enough to make him an instant hit, and this entry score also laid the foundation for Xu Yueming to be named the king of heaven later.

After that, Xu Yueming's life was like a hanging, and under the support of Shi Yan, he became a popular singer all the way, and also entered film and television, and achieved very good results, and was finally named the first batch of kings by the media.

In today's entertainment industry, the titles of kings and queens are continuous, but in terms of gold content, it has to be the first batch of four kings of film, television, and song.

Therefore, this "Mutual Truth" is the first song on Xu Yueming's road to fame, and it also has special significance for him and Shi Yan.

Although Xu Yueming later left Rolling Stone, there was no way to do it, after all, Xu Yueming cooperated with Shi Yan for a long time after he became popular, and it was not until the era of industrial records passed that he was forced to leave Shi Yan, set up his own door, and seek another development.

When Xu Yueming sang "Telling the Truth to Each Other", everyone present sighed that time had changed.

Xu Tianwang is no longer the young man he was at the beginning, and his voice is no longer immature, but full of traces of time.

And with the development of the times, the once brilliant Jiangyu has also fallen lonely.

Once, this was the main battlefield of the entertainment industry, and countless well-known actors and singers came out, but with the loneliness of Jiang Yu, countless Jiang stars were forced to go to the mainland for development.

And the former major record companies were forced to transform, from only making records at the beginning, to finally transforming, and proposing "full contract" to artists.

In fact, many people will confuse record companies, entertainment companies, and brokerage companies, one is responsible for releasing records, the other is cultivating artists to debut, and the other is serving artists, which is essentially an intermediary, but now many capital groups are mixing these three together.

In the early years, the record company signed a record contract with the singer at most, not an agent, you just sang and hairstyle records with me, and I didn't care about anything else.

But later, physical and digital records stopped making money, and the record company had no choice but to transform, not only for artists to sign record contracts, but also for brokerage contracts, and for artists to help them make money from other aspects such as film and television.

These Heung Kong record companies, which later developed into three types of companies, took on the responsibilities of three types of companies: record, entertainment and economy.

After Xu Yueming finished singing "Telling the Truth to Each Other", the audience burst into applause.

Then appeared on the stage, Zuo Yuanli, who is known as the fifth heavenly king.

Everyone was also very surprised to see Zuo Yuanli appear.

Many people sighed that he was born a few years late, otherwise there might not be no place for him among the four heavenly kings.

"Hasn't Zuo Tianwang been filming recently? Or did you come specifically to attend the anniversary? ”

"Zuo Tianwang and Boss Duan are also very good friends."

"It's been a long time since I've listened to Zuo Tianwang sing on the spot, and I still have all his records in the study."

Two king-level bigwigs appeared in a row, and the media were overjoyed.

It's worthy of a stone, and the row is too big!

Tomorrow, I'm afraid that the major headlines will not be occupied by the stone.

Zuo Yuanli sang a song and said a word of blessing to Shi Yan, and then walked off the stage.

He didn't take a seat at the banquet table, and immediately went to the airport to catch a flight because of work.

After Zuo Yuanli got off the stage, everyone moved their eyes to the stage again.

Because of the stage at this time, the lights suddenly dimmed.

Faintly, a group of staff members can be seen pushing a piano onto the stage.

Then a man walked onto the stage and sat down at the piano.

After all, the banquet hall was so big, and there was always some noise, but with the sound of a soft piano, the audience suddenly fell silent.

Strange accompaniment.

This should be a new tune.

Who is going to sing a new song at the anniversary celebration of Shi Ping?

Everyone was amazed.

The singers in front, even if they were ready to release new songs, did not sing new songs at the 40th anniversary of Shi Yan, for only one reason, that is, they didn't want to be said to be the popularity of Shi Yan's anniversary.

Everyone is here to congratulate, just sing an old song to congratulate, the main song is a memory, no one will sing a new song.

This anniversary celebration of Rolling Stone is very hot and will make headlines in major media.

Ordinary singers don't dare to sing new songs, because they will be said to be hot, and popular singers can't sing, for them, it is not cost-effective to send a new song here, and if they are labeled as rubbing heat, it will be a big loss.

That's why everyone at this time is curious, who is the singer on the stage?

Actually singing a new song at Shi Yan's anniversary?

It's a pity that the stage is pitch black, and everyone can only vaguely see a figure talking about the piano.

Soon, the prelude passed, and the first line of the song sounded.

"There are no flowers, is this moment destroyed......

This is a Cantonese song.

Whose voice is this?

It always feels familiar, but I can't tell which singer's name it is.

After the familiar Cantonese came into their ears, many people thought so.

Among them, one of them suddenly froze in his heart, and looked at the stage violently, trying to see through the figure in the dark.

"Is this ......?"
