National Tide 1980.

The matter of Huaxia Record Corporation putting pressure on Ning Weimin eventually turned into a farce where they slapped themselves in the face.

Originally they thought that Ning Weimin would panic and obediently present two music albums.

But in the end, I found that I ran into a tough guy who was not afraid of anything.

Not only did Ning Weimin not be frightened, he did not compromise, and he did not get down, but he also wanted to play "hard decoupling", planning to go to another audiovisual publishing house.

This is equivalent to a torn face between the two sides. Ning Weimin didn't even leave the slightest leeway for Huaxia Records, and directly turned the table.

But the question is, what can China Records do?

Not to mention that their original purpose was only to seek profit, and reporting Ning Weimin would be detrimental to others and not beneficial to themselves.

There is no actual benefit at all, but it turns partners into enemies.

What's more, foreigners are becoming more and more popular in the Republic.

It is not uncommon for ordinary Hong Kong businessmen and foreign businessmen to pass by once, and they will be served by the local government as emperors.

Not to mention such well-known international stars as Pavarotti, Alain Delon, and Keiko Matsumoto.

If Ning Weimin really has a business cooperation relationship with Matsumoto Keiko's firm, if he can really use the Japanese star's firm to sign an audio-visual publishing contract.

Then they really have nothing to do with Ning Weimin.

If nothing else, the impact of this matter is quite different.

Although according to the current regulations on the publication of audio-visual products in China, once a foreigner is involved in the publication and production of audio-visual products, this involves the control of imported versions, and it seems that Ning Weimin can easily get stuck.

But the reality is the opposite.

Under today's general environment, the cultural management department definitely welcomes foreign investment, especially enterprises under the name of international stars.

It can not only make money, but also have social influence. The euphemistic name is that it promotes international cultural exchanges.

Otherwise, if they want to play tricks in it, even the higher-ups will have to turn their faces, and once they are caught and hurt their feet, they will have to walk around.

To put it bluntly, if Ning Weimin had Matsumoto Keiko's office body protection in China, it was equivalent to practicing the golden bell.

Ordinary people, who can cure him!

So this matter is embarrassing for China Record Corporation.

Co-authoring them was a pug who put himself into a wolf's frame, but barked twice, but was beaten like a wolf in the end.

That was really humiliating, and the shame was all brought to my grandma’s house.

Especially if they don't know yet, Feng Chaonian, the manager of the Beijing branch, also feels resentful towards the head office's decision.

At this time, he had defected to the enemy and rebelled, and he had already stood in Ning Weimin's camp.

No matter what they say or do, they are all for Ning Weimin now, and they also report the head office's movements to Ning Weimin at any time.

They are even more destined to end disastrously by losing their underwear.

In fact, under Feng Chaonian's deliberate exaggeration and his constant instigation.

The top executives of Huaxia Headquarters are increasingly regretful and panicked.

Finally, they understood that there was nothing they could do against Ning Weimin. He had funds, music production capabilities, foreign investment background and policy support. He was confident no matter what, and he was popular everywhere.

In the end, because he was worried that he would get nothing, he had no choice but to send Feng Chaonian to speak kindly to Ning Weimin, and decided to kneel down and beg for peace.

Needless to say, Ning Weimin didn't need to spoil them anymore, after all, Huaxia Records had started the matter themselves.

Who made them have evil intentions and want to take advantage of the fire?

If you don’t teach them a lesson, it’s okay if they have a long memory!
So in the end, for Huaxia Records, not only did they not get what they wanted, but they also lost a large part of the benefits they could have gotten.

In fact, the publishing agreement signed by Huaxia Records and Ning Weimin only left Zhang Qiang's album.

And this time, not only was there no management fee of one cent, but even the original [-] cents profit commission for each album has become [-] cents.

In addition, based on the calculation of publishing 500 million tapes, Huaxia Records will have to invest 150 million on its own to bear the corresponding production costs.

And the refund should be given to Ning Weimin first according to the proportion.

And even this can be called the cooperation condition of "losing power and humiliating the country, ceding land and paying compensation".

Then the general manager and secretary of Huaxia Records had to come forward together, and personally set up a banquet to apologize to Ning Weimin before he could get it.

To put it bluntly, it's really useless to be a villain, losing his wife and losing his army!
Where did this come from?
Especially because when signing the contract, Ning Weimin did use the name of Keiko Matsumoto's office.

He also brought two Japanese from Shanghai and brought relevant documents and legal certificates.

Huaxia Records was really completely bluffed, and since then it has been truly honest.

Among other things, they just said that when they saw two Japanese, they nodded and bowed to Ning Weimin, bowing all the time.

In front of him, he was as obedient as a slave, why did he do what he asked.

Several leaders of China Records simply suspected that they were dreaming. They were so surprised that their eyeballs almost dropped to the ground like glass balls.

These days, it is far beyond their cognitive ability to make foreigners bow their heads and obey their ears even if they are Orientals.

Even if they heard that Ning Weimin was the son of a certain leader at this time, they were not as afraid of and admired Ning Weimin as they had seen this scene with their own eyes.

If you didn't see it with your own eyes, who would believe it?

What kind of person is this guy!
How did he do it?

No matter how you say it, it's not that Huaxia Records can afford to offend it!

Regret, I really regret it!

If only there was a medicine for regret in this world...

But to be honest, although Ning Weimin won very well, he also got much better cooperation conditions than the original plan.

But he himself didn't feel so proud and happy about it, instead he felt somewhat sad and helpless.

Think about it, he is making normal business investments in his own territory, in his hometown.

Actually, this kind of method is needed to effectively deter Xiaoxiao and protect his legitimate interests.

It even needs the help of foxes and tigers to get fair and reasonable treatment from some people.

What an incredible thing this is!

Therefore, he only thought that this result was barely acceptable.

It is far less enjoyable than the cooperative relationship he just reached with the third leather goods factory.

Don't forget, as a patriotic businessman, he has just rejected those companies that want to use foreign-funded companies to poach the country's corners.

Instead, he was willing to take risks to invest and support a company that was on the verge of bankruptcy in Beijing.

Now, on the other hand, when it comes to the sale of music albums, he can only take the opposite approach to get out of trouble.

Even if he is borrowing the power of his fiancée, it will inevitably make him discouraged and depressed!

This is not a matter of money, the important thing is that he has the frustration of failure because of this!
So Huaxia Records really deserved it!
There is nothing wrong with fixing them.

Speaking of which, a company like theirs actually deserves to be named "China"?
I really missed the word "Huaxia" for nothing.

As for Cui Jian's album, Ning Weimin certainly didn't stop working on it.

Instead, under Feng Chaonian's matchmaking, he decided to cooperate with another audiovisual publishing house and handed it over to "Pacific Records" for publishing.

Use this as a punishment for Huaxia Records, and at the same time prevent all eggs from being put in one basket.

Don't look at such a trouble, anger is anger, trouble is trouble, but there are some benefits to be honest.

First of all, Ning Weimin is no longer an unknown person in the audiovisual publishing industry.

The apology from Huaxia Records serves as a warning. Once most people understand this, they will no longer treat Ning Weimin like a pig.

The company "Pacific Records" is very clear.

Although under Feng Chaonian's introduction, he sharpened his knife quickly at first, thinking that he could bleed a big fat sheep after catching it.

Even what they think is more beautiful than Huaxia Records, and what they want is even more excessive than Huaxia Records.

He actually thought that he could buy Cui Jian's music album from Ning Weimin for only 20 yuan.

But when they heard that this album was completely produced in Japan, even the cover was made by a Japanese designer, and they signed a contract with Keiko Matsumoto.

They were stunned, and all unrealistic thoughts evaporated in a flash.

Not for anything else, just because only professionals engaged in music distribution can understand the important difference between domestic music and tapes imported from outside.

Think about it, if ordinary people can do such a handy thing?
Regardless of whether you have money or not, the key is that he is an expert, so professional!

Especially after further learning that Ning Weimin has already cooperated with Huaxia Records once, this time it was because of Huaxia Records' greed that he decided to choose another company to cooperate with.

Regardless of capital, production, or market risks, they don't need to bear them all.

They only need to publish a version number, and they can get a management fee of 20 yuan, and they can get [-] cents for each tape sold.

So what's not to like?
Isn't this equivalent to Feng Chaonian stuffing money into their hands?
Apart from contacting the distribution channels, they don't have any risks or pressures, and they can guarantee the harvest in drought and flood, which is suitable no matter what.

What's more, this album is obviously ambitious, and it is planned to produce 500 million copies after its initial release.

With a conservative calculation, there can be millions of profits, and if it is done well, it can be as small as 300 million.

It's even richer than releasing a 60 album by themselves.

Only a fool would push it out!

But the most important thing is that the music quality of this album is really excellent.

After listening to the master tape, almost everyone in the Beijing branch of Pacific Records admired and was enthusiastic about it.

They found that no matter the soundtrack, arrangement or post-production, they all belong to the absolute leading level that cannot be produced in China.

Don't look at the song "Nothing" is already popular in China, and the organizer of this show also compiled the wonderful songs from the show into a tape, which sold very well.

But the quality of the music they recorded is completely incomparable with this one.

Even if they are all sung by the same person, the timbre and effect are completely different.

So when the two parties signed the contract, Pacific Records also paid great attention to this matter and showed the greatest sincerity.

Even if they don't get the extra money that fell from the sky, they still want to get to know Ning Weimin.

Everyone wants to see what kind of person can do such a big deal.

He was so bold to think and act, and went to Japan alone to produce a music album that would drive all the passionate young people in the country crazy.

For this reason, Zhao Changqing, the manager of the Beijing branch of Pacific Records, not only personally received Ning Weimin, but also asked all the subordinates of the Beijing branch to attend.

Whether it was intentional or unintentional, anyway, what they did was much better than Huaxia Records.

Not only did it leave a sincere and humble impression on Ning Weimin.

It also fully demonstrated the absolute respect that Pacific Records, as the host, has for partners, or big customers.

Secondly, it was precisely because the top brass at Pacific Records Beijing Branch treated Ning Weimin with such courtesy and respect.

After the contract was signed, Pacific Records manager Zhao Changqing not only hosted a banquet for guests, but also took the initiative to take Ning Weimin to visit their branch, trying to explore more cooperation opportunities and discuss and exchange experiences in music production.

This inadvertently gave Ning Weimin a fortune.

what's up?
It turned out that during the visit, I listened to Zhao Changqing's introduction and watched the works released by Pacific Records this year.

Suddenly, among some unsalable music tapes, there was an album called "Songs Across the World", which attracted Ning Weimin's attention.

When he took a closer look, the album shone with an alluring light like gold that had fallen into the dust, almost blinding him.

Whose album is it?
Chinese-American mixed-race male god——Fei Xiang!
Not to mention adults who have personally experienced the 80s, like Ning Weimin, who was just a post-[-]s master in his previous life.

Everyone knows how popular Feixiang was in mainland China!
With the help of the Spring Festival Gala, this big man who was able to sing and dance at the same time, and was the first to bring strong singing and dancing to the mainland, dominated the Spring Festival Gala in the mainland for three years!

Even relying on a pair of blue eyes and handsome face, he became the dream lover recognized by all the mainland girls at that time.

I don't know how many mainland girls said at that time that they would not marry Fei Xiang.

Although there are very few people who can really do this kind of vow of eternal love, it is enough to prove the charm of this male star.

It can be said that if he is there, other mainstream male singers in the Republic will not be able to stand out, and they will all be overwhelmed by him.

So this is very strange, how could his music album be unsalable?
Especially when Ning Weimin looked at the list of songs again, he felt even more strange.

Because even though it's a standard cover album.

Like "Annoying Autumn Wind" and "A Fire in Winter" are covers of popular foreign disco songs.

In addition, there is also a cover of "The Cloud of Hometown", a cover of Cui Taiqing's "Missing You Tonight", a cover of Huang Yingying's "Only Separation", a cover of Feng Feifei's "Love Me Well", and a cover of Lin Shurong's "I Love You". "Why Did You Cry" and "Last Night's Stars", covered Deng Miaohua's "Traction", Liu Wenzheng's "Love Me Again", and Andy Williams' "Love Story".

Speaking of it, the only original song that belongs to Fei Xiang himself is "Longlian".

But the problem is that the quality of these songs is really not bad, it can be said that the first capital is Fei Xiang's main song to be active on the mainland stage in the future.

According to Ning Weimin, it completely meets the aesthetic requirements of the mainland. Didn't he use this method to promote Zhang Qiang?
Then how could it still be unacceptable? (end of this chapter)
