1993 My China Entertainment Age

Chapter 49 "Contemporary Music World" interview, the first magazine cover!

The next day, the sun rose as usual.

When Jiang Xiaofeng woke up, it was already noon, but he was not on the bed and saw Taohong.

When she was wondering where Taohong was going, Taohong took the key by herself, opened the door and walked in, carrying a bag of packed meals in her hand.

Seeing that Jiang Xiaofeng was already awake, Tao Hong smiled and asked, "Have you brushed your teeth and washed your face?"

Jiang Xiaofeng said: "Not yet, I just woke up."

"Go and brush your teeth and wash your face, dinner is ready."

"Oh," Jiang Xiaofeng went to the bathroom weakly.

Although he had slept for five or six hours in the morning, Jiang Xiaofeng still felt a little tired because he stayed up all night last night.

On the other hand, Taohong was in high spirits, her skin glowed with moisture, as if nothing had happened, and her complexion became even better.

One serving of chicken with mushrooms, one serving of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, one serving of braised pork knuckles, one serving of stir-fried green Chinese cabbage, and the soup is lotus root pork rib soup, a simple four dishes and one soup, is today's lunch.

Maybe it was because he consumed too much last night, Jiang Xiaofeng had a great appetite, and praised while eating: "It tastes good."

"Then eat more, I'll give you half of my rice." Seeing Jiang Xiaofeng eating with relish, Tao Hong picked up the lunch box and chopsticks, divided half of the rice, and poured it into Jiang Xiaofeng's lunch box.

Jiang Xiaofeng asked Taohong: "Are you enough?"

Tao Hong said: "Enough, I can't eat that much, you can eat more."

After all, it was a young man. After Jiang Xiaofeng ate and drank his fill, he immediately returned to a state of full blood.

In the room, Jiang Xiaofeng hugged Taohong for a while, and quickly entered the state of preparation, and Taohong also sensed the danger, so he hugged Jiang Xiaofeng quickly to prevent him from doing anything wrong.

"What's the matter?" Jiang Xiaofeng asked suspiciously after Taohong hugged her hands and couldn't move at all.

"Not today..." Tao Hong stammered.

Jiang Xiaofeng asked with concern: "Why not? Are you uncomfortable?"

Tao Hong buried her face in Jiang Xiaofeng's arms, and said in a voice like a mosquito, "Well, it still hurts..."

"I..." Jiang Xiaofeng swallowed the words and swallowed them again.

Out of guilt for Tao Hong, Jiang Xiaofeng still blamed himself and sighed: "Well, it's all my fault, I didn't take your feelings into consideration..."

Tao Hong said shyly and angrily: "Oh, why are you here again? I don't blame you. Why are you always apologizing to me? Don't do this in the future..."

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you, I won't say anything," Jiang Xiaofeng said without any nonsense, just quietly hugging Taohong.

In the following period of time, when Jiang Xiaofeng was not alive, he practiced the piano and wrote new songs in his room. Only when Wang Jinghua came to him did he go out to work.

Strictly speaking, Jiang Xiaofeng is not a gregarious person, and he is not willing to mix in circles. Like Gao Xiaosong and Zheng Jun, they went to the bar and asked Jiang Xiaofeng to go with them, but he basically refused, and then they stopped calling at all. .

The old wolf admired Jiang Xiaofeng's talent very much, and asked Jiang Xiaofeng to have dinner with him, but Jiang Xiaofeng went there once and found it boring, and felt that it was too noisy. Every time the old wolf treats guests for dinner, there are at least 20 people.

Because Lao Lang was the first of this group of people to get rich, and he was very generous, he often invited "big dinners". thick.

In fact, these days, apart from Zheng Jun and the "Four Young Masters of Moyan", as well as the Tang Dynasty band and the Black Panther band, most of the rock music players are quite poor, especially the unknown rock musicians, who usually don't have much performances. There is no last meal, but a meal is a meal.

Of course, Jiang Xiaofeng is not a miser. He also invited Overload Band, Zheng Jun, and Gao Xiaosong to dinner. The band that invited him the most times was the Overload Band who collaborated on the "Jiang Xiaofeng" album.

Jiang Xiaofeng also invited the old wolf to dinner alone. Just the two of them, the old wolf paid the bill secretly under the pretext of going to the toilet during the meal, and never invited the old wolf to dinner again.

In other words, because of the signing of Jiang Xiaofeng, a popular singer, Wang Jinghua also ushered in a new peak in her management career.

From walking around the streets with 800 yuan at the beginning, to a fixed monthly salary of 5000 yuan, and now becoming a "high-income group" with a monthly income of tens of thousands, Wang Jinghua has achieved a qualitative improvement in just a few years. leap.

The only thing that remains the same is that Wang Jinghua will still ride her purple-blue Phoenix brand bicycle to meet clients, solicit resources for contracted artists, and receive business performances.

Jiang Xiaofeng was very satisfied with Wang Jinghua's manager. As long as she was there, he basically didn't have to worry about it.

No matter what activities Jiang Xiaofeng wants to go out to participate in, Wang Jinghua will make all the preparations, ranging from booking a hotel to arranging a car pick-up, down to bath water temperature and three meals a day.

In short, apart from talking about resources, Wang Jinghua is still like a "nanny", worrying about Jiang Xiaofeng.

However, Wang Jinghua's meticulousness has an advantage, that is, it is not easy to make mistakes, whether it is for Jiang Xiaofeng or the other signed artists.

Under her management, the artists live and work in an orderly manner, and their mental state is always very full, so the effect of attending events will naturally be very good.

Seeing the artist's good performance, the organizer is willing to cooperate more. In this way, Wang Jinghua can firmly grasp various resources in his hands.

May 9st, morning.

Jiang Xiaofeng accepted an exclusive interview from "Contemporary Music World" magazine at a hotel near Huiyuan Apartment.

Speaking of the magazine "Contemporary Music World", this is a magazine from Harbin. On January 1994, 1, "Contemporary Music World" was launched, and the cover of the first issue was "Sweet Song Queen" Yang Yuying.

This year is the year when the "Four Heavenly Kings" are playing, and the four have almost monopolized all the awards of Xiangjiang pop music. It is no surprise that the first issue of "Contemporary Music World" devoted a lot of space to introducing the music of the four.

And the "Western Singer" Wang Luobin, who appeared on the cover with the four heavenly kings, Yang Yuying and Wei Wei, and the singer Li Na, who sang more than 160 songs for more than 200 film and television dramas, were rarely mentioned later.

Although this magazine has been published for less than a year, it quickly became the most influential entertainment magazine in the Chinese music circle with its keen sense of fashion, and launched the slogan of "the first issue of trendy music"!

It is no exaggeration to say that it opened the door for many people to understand the entertainment industry.

Although Jiang Xiaofeng is still a newcomer in the music scene and has debuted for less than a year, his ability to accept interviews is excellent, and he is not slick, but sincere and simple, and of course includes some wit.

When asked by a reporter about the feeling of becoming famous at a young age, Jiang Xiaofeng also said modestly: "I think I am a very lucky person. I was able to get the support of so many fans and friends for my first record. I really appreciate everyone's love. "

Reporter: "Many music fans think that your rock is not pure enough. How do you view this issue? Do you think you are a pure rock singer?"

Jiang Xiaofeng said frankly: "I don't think so. Besides, I have never said that I am a rock singer, and I have never said that I am a folk singer. I think I have a rock side and a non-rock side."

"Including my music style, it is not pure rock, nor pure folk. I hope my music, like my life, is rich and colorful. I don't want to limit my life and creation to a certain type."

Reporter: "What do you think are the four masters of Moyan, and what are the characteristics of your music? Let's talk about Dou Wei first."

Jiang Xiaofeng thought for a while and said, "I think Dou Wei is very talented. His music is very advanced and has his own characteristics."

The reporter then asked: "Where is Zhang Chu?"

Jiang Xiaofeng said: "Zhang Chuhe, I think his lyrics are very well written, very literary, like a poet."

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Xiaofeng expressed his opinion on He Yong: "I think He Yong's music has the unique charm of old Yanjing, simple and real."

The reporter smiled and said: "Finally, let's evaluate yourself. Come and tell us, what kind of musician do you think you are? Or, what kind of musician do you hope you can become?"

Jiang Xiaofeng thought about it seriously, and replied: "For myself, I hope that in the future, I can try various types of music. I don't want my music to be stereotyped. I hope my music can be colorful..."

……

Because of Jiang Xiaofeng's frankness and sincerity, this interview also went smoothly, and the two sides communicated harmoniously almost throughout the process.

After the interview, Jiang Xiaofeng cooperated with the photographer of "Contemporary Music World" to take a group of fashion photos, which will be used as the cover material of the next issue of the magazine.

It is worth mentioning that since the publication of "Contemporary Singing World", almost every time, a singer has been invited to shoot the cover of the magazine. The singers who can be on the cover of the magazine are all well-known and popular singers.

From Yang Yuying in the first issue, to Jacky Cheung in the second issue, to Wang Fei in the third issue, Na Ying in the fourth issue, Andy Lau in the fifth issue, Huajian Zhou in the sixth issue, Meichen Pan in the seventh issue, Jimmy Lin in the eighth issue...

Obviously, compared with the previous dozen or so cover characters, Jiang Xiaofeng still has a big gap in fame.

With Jiang Xiaofeng's current popularity and popularity, he was able to become the cover character of "Contemporary Music World", mainly thanks to Wang Jinghua, his manager.

You know, for the interview and cover opportunity of "Contemporary Music World", Wang Jinghua helped him negotiate with the editor of the magazine many times before finally negotiating resources.

Moreover, Wang Jinghua did her best to Jiang Xiaofeng this time, because she hired the photographer and reporter of "Contemporary Music World" from Harbin at her own expense.

Of course, Jiang Xiaofeng was also very upbeat and did not disappoint Wang Jinghua, and completed the cooperation with the "Contemporary Music World" magazine very professionally and politely.
