In March 1979, the famous female singer Zhu Fengbo was invited by Liao Zuming to join Pacific Audio, which had just been established for a few months.

"Remember, all the lyrics in the song that have Mao, society, and communism cannot appear."

This is not the first time Liao Zuming has reminded him.

Zhu Fengbo nodded: "These songs were all picked by my good friend Chen Gang for me, and they fully meet your requirements." ”

"Chen Gang," Liao Zuming seemed to be a little impressed: "Is it the composer Chen Gang?" ”

"Yes, Lao Chen is a very good composer,"

Due to the current positioning of "Pacific" audio-visual, it is only distributed and sold to Southeast Asia, Hong Kong and Macao.

Therefore, it is inevitable that the tracks of this batch of tapes will be picked and chosen.

After hearing the specific song selection requirements, Zhu Fengbo found Chen Gang as soon as possible.

Everyone is not familiar with Chen Gang, and everyone has never heard of his father Chen Gexin.

However, the songs "Night Shanghai" and "Rose Rose I Love You" can hum a few sentences to some extent.

In Shanghai in the thirties and forties, it was the composer Chen Gexin, who was known as the "generation of singers", who single-handedly popularized Zhou Xuan and other hot singers.

But who would have thought that Chen Gexin, who wrote "Rose Rose I Love You", wrote the warblers and warblers, and then wrote the children's song "Pulling Radish" that has been sung to this day, and "Congratulations and Congratulations", which must be released every year.

Among them, the song "Congratulations and Congratulations" is actually a song written by Chen Gexin overnight after learning that Little Japan surrendered.

This song is still very festive to listen to, both then and now!

Soon, Zhu Fengbo, accompanied by Liao Mingzu, walked into the recording studio full of newcomers and new machines.

Brand new air conditioning, soft carpets, and brand new equipment......

Zhu Fengbo looked at the recording studio in front of him with surprised eyes,

"Wow, this room looks so high-class," she wondered, "why is it different from the other rooms?" ”

"The conditions of our factory are limited,"

Liao Mingzu smiled awkwardly: "You can only fix the room where the machines are placed, after all, they are the most important." ”

"In our Pacific," one staff member laughed, "machines are always better treated than people." ”

Even Liao Mingzu's own office is still a landscape room with heavy rain outside and light rain inside.

"But you're pretty well arranged,"

The recording studio that unfolded in front of Zhu Fengbo's eyes was divided into a small room.

"We put a microphone in every compartment, a violin, a piano...... Do not interfere with each other," Liao Mingzu said:

"Don't look at the environment of our factory is not very good, but the equipment is absolutely first-class, and there is no second one in China for 24-track simultaneous recording."

"Hearing you say that," Zhu Fengbo felt new when he saw everything: "I can't wait." ”

"Then let's get started!"

Both sides are looking forward to it and working very hard.

Within a few days, the first cassette of "Pacific" video and audio, "Roses Bloom Everywhere", was finally recorded.

This time, Zhu Fengbo, who recorded 18 songs at one time, happily got a reward of 180 yuan.

According to the previous plan, the 100,000 boxes of "Rose Everywhere" were quickly sent to the sales destination.

Although Xiangjiang's partner "Baili" video and audio, it has been promoting it for a while.

However, this box of albums still didn't make much of a splash.

The original contract of 900,000 boxes of outsourced sales plan only sold 90,000 cassette tapes.

For this result, Guangdong-East Radio and Television was completely stupid.

You must know that when the "Pacific" audio and video was created, the full set of advanced equipment purchased was completely completed by a loan of 4 million yuan from the Hong Kong side.

According to the contract, "Pacific" is responsible for production, and "Bailey" is responsible for selling overseas, and all the proceeds are used to repay the loan.

But judging by the current sales situation, this plan is unlikely to be completed.

"What to do? What to do? ”

This sentence is not only asked by Xiangjiang Bailey, but also by Guangdong-East Radio and Television......

To Liao Mingzu's surprise, almost everyone was asking him this question.

But he didn't know how to solve it.

Until this time, Liao Mingzu didn't understand why he should execute the contract signed by others?

But reality is reality, Liao Mingzu, who didn't recruit anyone to provoke anyone for a while, could only do everything possible to sell this box of "Roses Open Everywhere".

The result can be imagined, in Hong Kong and Macao at the end of the 70s, this box of "Roses Bloom Everywhere" can be sold 90,000 boxes, which can already be called a miracle.

But what should I do with the remaining 810,000 cassette tapes?

Liao Mingzu, who really had no choice, could only return home from Xiangjiang, but he didn't expect to meet Zhou Zishen, who was also gray.

"I know someone,"

After seeing Liao Mingzu, who was already too thin, Zhou Zishen said interestingly:

"There is a reporter named Jiangshan in Pujiang, and I hope he can help you open a market in Xiangjiang."

"What you said is true?" Liao Mingzu looked at his friend in disbelief: "What Xiangjiang Baili can't do, a Pujiang reporter can do?" ”

"I didn't believe it at first," Zhou Zishen smiled bitterly: "Later, after seeing the works he designed, I took it." ”

"What work?"

"The specific style hasn't been listed yet," Zhou Zi thought deeply: "Didn't you just come back from Xiangjiang, did you see the promotion of "White Cat" laundry detergent?" ”

"Xiangjiang Cat Emperor?"

"Yes, it's the Xiangjiang Cat Emperor," Zhou Zishen nodded: "The planner of this event is also the reporter." ”

"......" After being stunned for a minute, Liao Mingzu grabbed Zhou Zishen: "Tell me quickly, where can I find this reporter." ”

"It's not difficult for you to find him," Zhou Zishen paused: "But when you get there, don't mention my name." ”

"Why?"

"Anyway, you just don't want to mention it."

At this moment,

Liao Mingzu, who was already standing on the playground of the Oriental Metropolis Daily, was still thinking about Zhou Zishen's words.

"Who are you looking for, comrade?"

Suddenly, a voice came from the front.

Liao Mingzu took a closer look, and a young man came out of the small bungalow in front of him with a loaf of bread.

"I ......" Looking at the young man with a bright smile in front of him, Liao Mingzu was in a trance: "May I ask Comrade Jiangshan to work here?" ”

"Jiangshan? What are you looking for him? ”

At this time, Liao Mingzu had already regained his usual smile: "What else can I do, naturally I want to advertise." ”

"It's the same,"

Jiang Shan glanced at Liao Mingzu slightly, and only felt that the person in front of him was almost unsatisfactory on his face:

"What do you want to advertise?" Jiang Shan asked casually.

"Tape," Liao Zuming looked at the other party's stable appearance, and seemed to have guessed a few points: "Singer Zhu Fengbo's tape." ”

"Tapes?"

Jiang Shan stuffed the last bite of bread into his mouth: "May I ask which unit are you a comrade?" ”

"Pacific Audio-Visual Company," Liao Zuming specially added: "Our company has just been established for a long time, and you shouldn't have heard of it." ”

"May I ask who you are?"

"I forgot to introduce myself," Liao Mingzu hurriedly took out a business card: "My name is Liao Mingzu, the general manager of Pacific Audio." ”

Syllable~

While taking the business card, the other party slapped a hot bread into Liao Mingzu's hand.

"Hello Mr. Liao, I am the country you are looking for."

"I can see it!" Liao Mingzu stretched out a hand and shook hands with Jiang Shan: "Hello Reporter Jiang, I have heard of a big name for a long time!" ”

"Where did you smell it?" Jiang Shan pointed in the direction of the office: "Let's go in and talk." ”

"All I can say is that this friend of mine admires you, but he won't let me mention his name."

"Heh, then I won't ask,"

Jiang Shan unscrewed the door lock of the office: "Next, let's talk about your tapes." ”

Liao Mingzu was really hungry, smelled the milky bread, and decided to eat and talk like Jiangshan.

"That is, out of a total of 900,000 cassette tapes, you only sold a tenth of them?"

"I'm ashamed,"

Thinking of his majestic appearance at the beginning, Liao Mingzu only felt panic on his face:

"As of this month, our company has lost 40,000 yuan."

"Forty thousand yuan," Jiang Shan muttered: "The leader started scolding, right?" ”

"Don't mention it," Liao Mingzu waved his hand: "But, scolding can't solve the problem?" ”

"It's not easy."

"......" Liao Mingzu was stunned when he heard it: "What? Can't you solve it too? My friend said you were terrible. ”

"Don't believe rumors, don't spread rumors!"

"Don't be modest, Section Chief Jiang, I heard that the Xiangjiang Cat Emperor is also your masterpiece?"

"That...... I can try," Jiang Shan said with a smile: "But this matter is not simple after all, and I can't pack a ticket." ”

"Of course, no one will pack a ticket." Liao Mingzute nodded understandingly.

"Tape," Jiang Shan asked, "I want to hear it first." ”

"Don't worry, we don't have anything else, just the tape can be enough."

As he spoke, Liao Mingzu took out a cassette tape from his bag, and took out a tape recorder with the width of a notebook.

[Roses bloom everywhere, youth and youth are everywhere in ......]

Soon, a song in the style of "Rose Rose I Love You" sounded leisurely in Jiangshan's office.

After the song ended, Jiang Shan reached out and turned off the tape recorder: "The whole tape is in this style? ”

"This one is the title song, and although the others are not as good as this one, the style is similar."

"I can tell you now," Jiang Shan didn't want to hide it at all: "This tape has no market in Xiangjiang at all." ”

Liao Mingzu, who didn't expect the other party to be so direct, immediately fell into the sofa: "Just ...... Can't think of a way anymore? ”

"There is no way," Jiang Shan really can't help: "The so-called market must be built on the basis of the coexistence of supply and demand, do you think Hong Kong and Macao have this need?" ”

"That'...... In other words...... There's no more way around it? Liao Mingzu suddenly felt a little dizzy: "Hundreds of thousands of cassettes are going to be scrapped?" ”

"I really can't do anything about the market in Xiangjiang," Jiang Shan said slowly, "but if I change places, I can sell it without a single plate."

"What?" Liao Mingzu, who was cross-cutting his head, thought he had misheard: "What did you just say?" ”

"I said I could take care of selling out the tapes."

Jiang Shan, who had already stood up, was making morning tea for his guests.

On the playground before, when he heard that the person who came was the "Pacific" video, Jiang Shan guessed a few points.

As a result, as he had guessed, the first tapes of the "Pacific" were in big trouble.

According to the original trajectory, these desperate tapes will be forced to transfer to the mainland next year.

Then, after more than a month of darkening, Zhu Fengbo's "Roses Bloom Everywhere" will blossom all over the country.

Referring to the news at the time, the orders were all 100,000 and 100,000.

For a long time to come, the "Pacific" video and audio will be stuck in a continuous rotation of people's machines.

In just a few years, this "Pacific Ocean" will dedicate two television station buildings to Guangdong-East Radio and Television.

Liao Mingzu found the gate of Jiangshan at this time, which was equivalent to sending a merit box to Jiangshan.

As long as Jiangshan acts according to the time, he can make the future audio-visual boss "Pacific" grateful to him.

Such a good thing, he thinks it is beautiful!

"Sales...... Empty? ”

Looking at Comrade Jiangshan, who had already laughed out a row of little white teeth, Liao Mingzu only felt a little dazzling.

God knows how many departments he has run and how many talented people he has found, but no one has ever said anything like this to him.

No one even tried it!
