Chapter 153: Hualiu is the top stream
In the eighties and nineties. Before the emergence of excellent original singers such as Jay Chou and Lin Junjie, the Hong Kong and Taiwan music scene at that time was almost a sea of covers.
As long as you like to listen to songs, then the probability of you winning the lottery is almost 100%. Most of them are covered from Japanese songs, so some people say that the Hong Kong and Taiwan music scene at that time was a Sinicization group.
Among them, the most covered songs are basically from three people, and most of the male singers like to cover the songs of Koji Tamaki.
He is also called
"Let the King of Heaven Be the Man of the King", from Chen Baiqiang's "In the Cold Wind" to Jacky Cheung's "Autumn Mood" and "Moon Half Bay" The original songs are all covered by him.
Most of the female singers cover from Miyuki Nakajima. She alone has fed most of the Hong Kong and Taiwan music scene.
And it lasted for twenty years. Faye Wong's "Easily Injured Woman", Teresa Teng's "Walking on the Road of Life", Liu Ruoying's "So You Are Here", and Fan Weiqi's "The First Dream" The original song all came from her.
Another regular on the cover chart is Shinji Tanimura. Jacky Cheung's "Distant Her", the original song is also a cover.
Basically, in the eighties and nineties, the songs that Hong Kong and Taiwan are familiar with, as long as you go to the book to find them, you can find some original songs, or parts that have been borrowed.
In 1993, however, for the first time, a different situation occurred. On October 16, when TV Asahi broadcast "Slam Dunk" for the first time.
Many viewers found that the opening song was actually a cover song from Chinese mainland. Last year, with the broadcast of "The Voice of China" on Asahi TV, Wang Xu's "I Want to Say I Love You Loudly" was also well-known to the public.
This song released in 1991 actually set off a moment of popularity in the book. At that time, there were even a few book brokerage companies, and they specially invited Wang Xu and a few of them to perform in the book.
"The Voice of China" became the first variety show with reverse output, and "I Want to Say I Love You Loudly" also became the first pop song adapted from a book in the 90s.
This is very rare in a proud book.。 But compared to the closed-mindedness of the Hong Kong and Taiwan purchase book,The book is still very sincere in this regard.。
On the day of the broadcast, not only a celebration ceremony was held, but also Wang Xu was specially invited to the book and a special show was held.
Of course, Chu Qing wants to enter the book music market. With his current energy, it is impossible to imagine that it is impossible to rely on acquisitions.
However, we have thousands of years of culture, and we don't need to buy, relying on cultural export, in fact, it is enough.
In later generations, there was a band that was not well-known in China, but it was particularly popular in the book. Their names were
The fame of the band "Twelve Women's Orchestra" does not lie in a certain singer or a certain song.
It's the form of their performances, and the genre of music that has a lot of charm. This is a band that plays traditional folk music in the form of pop music.
As long as you can grasp the essence, you can easily copy it even if you don't have a score. When mentioning this band, we must mention another person, Wang Xiaojing.
He can be regarded as the discoverer of Chinese rock music. Cui Jian, Luo Qi, Chen Lin, Jiang Shan, including the album "Rock BJ", which integrates Dou Wei, Black Panther, Samsara Band, Compass Band, Overload and other early Chinese rock musicians, were all discovered and created by him.
In the past few months in the capital, Chu Qing has not only solved the chip matter, but also solved Wang Xiaojing. At that time, Wang Xiaojing was in high spirits, and Cui Jian, who he single-handedly excavated, was at the peak of music.
There are basically fans of him all over the world. From the book to Germany, there are Cui Jian's performances. When Chu Qing found him, he was actually very surprised at first.
With Cui Jian's current name, there are many publishers who come to him every year. But the problem of album piracy has also become his biggest headache now.
Fortunately last year, but after entering 1993, piracy can be said to have reached a very rampant level.
Even a big coffee like Cui Jian has basically halved the sales of albums. But it is in this situation of rampant piracy that backgammon has become a wonder in the industry.
does not go to the audio store, nor does it go to other distribution channels, and relies on his hundreds of flagship stores to support a genuine market.
In two years, BBK's flagship store has sold more than 5,000 album tapes.
The exclusive VCD album has reached 10 million copies. and also made Chen Ming the second female singer in the mainland to sell more than 10 million albums except Zhang Qiang.
You must know that the album market in 1993 was different from previous years. At that time, Zhang Qiang could easily sell more than 20 million albums, but in 1993, as long as she dared to release a genuine album, the pirated version had already come out before it was distributed.
Now there are only albums released through the backgammon channel, and there are not many pirates. But with the flagship store of BBK, it has reached 400, and the number of township franchise stores across the country has also reached 2,000.
There are fewer and fewer pirated copies of BBK in the market. It is false to say that Wang Xiaojing is not envious, and now publishers across the country basically envy BBK's achievements.
It is particularly unrealistic for them to learn to build a flagship store with backgammon. After all, in backgammon, albums are just ancillary products.
Their flagship store mainly sells electronics. But in the face of the high requirements of backgammon, it is particularly difficult for other publishers to enter the distribution system of backgammon.
So when he heard that it was the boss of BBK who came to the door, Wang Xiaojing was really surprised.
In the end, Chu Qing used the conditions to help BBK build a traditional folk music band and took over the album release in his hands.
So when Wang Xu opened a special performance in his book on October 16, he brought this women's orchestra that took only half a year to create.
This is also the first time they have performed in front of an audience. Twelve graceful beauties, dressed in cheongsams and holding traditional folk music, appeared on the stage.
This appearance alone stunned everyone. After all, this kind of orchestra full of classical charm is the first time that it has appeared on the stage in such a form.
In the past, traditional folk music was only used as a soundtrack, hiding behind the scenes. But their performances are different from traditional folk music performances.
There are fewer stereotypes, and Wang Xiaojing has added many pop elements to it. Guzheng, dulcimer, pipa, erhu, bamboo flute, flute, gourd silk.
Each has its own duties, but each has its own rhythm. When Jay Chou called the Korean Wave back then, he said a sentence called
"Hualiu is the most hanging" At that time, when I heard this sentence, I would only feel arrogant. But when you really listen to the pop music played by the 12th Women's Orchestra with folk music, you will understand.
What is the meaning of the phrase that the nation is the world? Especially the book.,It's a country that is deeply influenced by Chinese culture.。
There are many things that are connected. I also have a deeper understanding of this kind of music than in other countries.
So when such an orchestra debuted in the book, it also completely unraveled their suppression from the blood.
It makes them feel as if they have returned to the era when they were once dominated by higher civilizations. The 12th Women's Orchestra can be on fire in the book, and it has become a matter of course.
