1993 My China Entertainment Age

Chapter 71 The total net worth exceeds one million, an invitation from a film company! (5 thousand chapters for subscription)

However, even if only 5 hit songs were put on the same record, Jiang Xiaofeng felt that it was scary enough, and he didn't know what would happen after this record was released.

Jiang Xiaofeng was also full of expectations for this.

On the other hand, Chen Jiaying in Xiangjiang may never have dreamed that after Jiang Xiaofeng returned to Yanjing, not only did she not collect and create, but she also lived a very chic and comfortable life.

Because she was still not at ease with Jiang Xiaofeng, Chen Jiaying would call to "consolate" Jiang Xiaofeng almost every two days, urging him on the phone to devote time and energy to the creation of new songs.

When talking on the phone with Chen Jiaying, Jiang Xiaofeng had a very good attitude, always behaved obediently, and said "yes", and then turned around and devoted all his time and energy to Taohong after talking on the phone.

After half a month, Jiang Xiaofeng, who ate and drank a lot every day, not only did not gain weight, but lost a full six catties.

Taohong's complexion was much ruddy, and Jiang Xiaofeng's eyes were almost dripping water.

Silent night.

Houzhai Hutong, Siheyuan.

Thinking that Jiang Xiaofeng would leave Yanjing for Xiangjiang tomorrow, Tao Hong snuggled into Jiang Xiaofeng's arms, pouring out the pain of parting.

Jiang Xiaofeng was also reluctant to part with Taohong, more than ever.

It doesn't matter if Jiang Xiaofeng and Taohong are not together for a long time, but after half a month, he and Taohong stick together almost every day, and it has become a habit, getting used to the feeling of her being around.

After getting along during this period of time, Taohong also felt Jiang Xiaofeng's deep love for her as always, but when she thought that Jiang Xiaofeng was going to Xiangjiang, she felt unsure, and asked uneasily: "Xiaofeng, will you always be like this?" love me?"

Jiang Xiaofeng said affectionately: "Of course I will. I, Jiang Xiaofeng, will love you as much as I do now in my life. I can't live without you."

Hearing Jiang Xiaofeng's words, Tao Hong was also very moved, couldn't help but kissed her face, and said: "Me too, I can't live without you, I want to be with you forever, never separate from you, "After speaking, he hugged Jiang Xiaofeng tightly.

Jiang Xiaofeng was also very moved, hugging Taohong tightly, feeling her softness and fragrance.

Taohong suddenly remembered something, and then said: "Xiaofeng, if one day you fall in love with someone else, please tell me, I won't pester you, I..."

Before Taohong finished speaking, Jiang Xiaofeng interrupted: "Oh, why are you here again? Let's be fine now, why are you bringing up these things that didn't happen?"

Seeing that Jiang Xiaofeng was a little impatient, Tao Hong hurriedly explained: "We have to make an agreement first, before such a thing really happens, and I don't know how to deal with it, I'm afraid."

Jiang Xiaofeng said angrily and funnyly: "What are you afraid of? Let me tell you this. Even if one day I really fall in love with someone else, you are my favorite. No one can compare with you. You are in my heart The position is unmatched by others.”

"Think about it for yourself. We have been together for two years. You should know better than anyone else how I treat you. Am I the kind of person who starts to mess up and ends up giving up?"

Taohong shook her head, curled her lips, and said: "No, you are not such a person, but if you really fall in love with someone else and don't love me anymore, I can leave on my own initiative, I don't want you to make things difficult... ..."

Before Taohong finished speaking, Jiang Xiaofeng took over the conversation and said: "Impossible, I can't not love you, although no one can say for sure about the future, I can't guarantee, will I be right? Another woman is tempted, but I can assure you that you are my favorite, we have feelings besides love, I will never leave you in my life..."

Seeing Jiang Xiaofeng's attitude in saying these words was so resolute, decisive, and unquestionable, Tao Hong was also completely moved, and the tears in her eyes finally fell down uncontrollably.

And Tao Hong's inner worries and anguish, also under Jiang Xiaofeng's patient persuasion, completely disappeared at this moment.

Like most women in the world, Taohong also needs a sense of security, and Jiang Xiaofeng did not disappoint her, giving her enough sense of security.

Talking and chatting like this, Jiang Xiaofeng fell asleep in a daze, but Taohong didn't feel sleepy, she didn't want to just fall asleep like this, she enjoyed the time with Jiang Xiaofeng, she was afraid that after she fell asleep, she would open her eyes. The eyes are bright.

However, thinking of Jiang Xiaofeng leaving tomorrow and not knowing when we will see each other again, Taohong still couldn't help but shed tears.

8 month 6 day.

Two months after Jiang Xiaofeng's first Cantonese album "Listening to Maple" was released in Xiangjiang, the total sales volume successfully exceeded the 8 mark.

It was also during this period that Wang Fei paid tribute to her idol Teresa Teng's Mandarin album "The Voice of the Philippines". It sold more than 3 copies in Hong Kong within a week of its release, and even reached 5 copies in Taiwan Province in the first week, showing her true qualities as a queen. .

As for the song god Zhang Xueyou, the Cantonese album "Allergy World" released by Wan Jiang Xiaofeng in one month broke through the 10 mark.

Although in terms of record sales, Jiang Xiaofeng's "Listening to Maple" lost to the song god Jacky Cheung's "Allergy World", but in terms of song popularity, Jiang Xiaofeng's "Next Year Today" can crush Jacky Cheung's "Allergy World" Ten songs on this record.

It is worth mentioning that the album "Listening to Maple" is priced at 100 yuan in Hong Kong. According to the contract with Xinyibao Records, Jiang Xiaofeng can get about 20 yuan.

"Listening to Maple" sold 8 copies in Xiangjiang, with a total revenue of 800 million yuan. Jiang Xiaofeng can get 20% of it, which is 160 million yuan before tax.

In other words, Jiang Xiaofeng also earned about 160 million by virtue of the "Listening to Feng" album, which was sold in Xiangjiang.

Although Chen Jiaying is Jiang Xiaofeng's manager, she only has a management contract with Jiang Xiaofeng, not a record contract, and will not share Jiang Xiaofeng's record proceeds.

As the manager of Jiang Xiaofeng and Wang Fei, Chen Jiaying's main remuneration comes from the income commission of the two singers' commercial performances, concerts, brand endorsements, film and television dramas, etc.

Of course, Jiang Xiaofeng's records are selling well, and Chen Jiaying is also very happy, because this means that Jiang Xiaofeng's commercial value has improved accordingly, and her net worth has also risen accordingly. The share of income she can get from Jiang Xiaofeng is naturally also will get higher and higher.

May 8st, morning.

Xinyibao record company, recording studio.

Under the expectant eyes of manager Chen Jiaying and producer Liang Rongjun, Jiang Xiaofeng took out the first song of his new album - "Friends".

"Over the years, a person
The wind is gone, the rain is gone

There have been tears, there have been mistakes

remember what to hold on to

If you really love, you will understand

will be lonely, will look back

......"

Although the song "Friends" is a Mandarin song with a simple melody and lyrics, Chen Jiaying and Liang Rongjun are very clear that this song is catchy, full of life philosophy, and has a strong communication attribute.

Especially the sentence "one sentence, a lifetime, a lifetime of love, a glass of wine" sung by Jiang Xiaofeng. The short four words fully express the preciousness of friendship in life.

After listening to the song "Friends" composed and sung by Jiang Xiaofeng, Liang Rongjun and Chen Jiaying were very happy, and Chen Jiaying even gave him a thumbs up.

Chen Jiaying said with emotion: "Fengzi, you really didn't disappoint me. It seems that you returned to Yanjing to collect folk songs this time, and you are still very fruitful. Once you came back to Xiangjiang, you brought us a surprise."

Jiang Xiaofeng replied with a smile: "Sister Katie, I said that I had more creative inspiration when I returned to Yanjing. You didn't really believe it at the time, but you should believe me now, right?"

Chen Jiaying laughed loudly and said: "Believe me, now I know, you really didn't go back to play, you really put your heart into making music.

That morning, Liang Rongjun started to arrange the song "Friends" composed by Jiang Xiaofeng. It only took more than a day to complete the arrangement of this song, and then found a professional band to record the accompaniment.

On the third day, Jiang Xiaofeng entered the studio to record.

After recording the song "Friends", Jiang Xiaofeng released the second title song of the new album - "Ten Years".

The song "Ten Years" is said to be a new song, but it is actually a dual-purpose song. It is the Mandarin version of the Cantonese song "Next Year Today".

In fact, this kind of creative mode is very common in the Hong Kong music scene. Many Hong Kong singers, including the Four Heavenly Kings, will adapt their popular Cantonese songs into Mandarin songs, and then release them in mainland China and Taiwan Province.

Like Andy Lau, one of the Four Heavenly Kings, many of his Cantonese songs will be adapted into Mandarin songs for release, the most classic of which is the adaptation of the Cantonese golden song "The Days We Walked Together" into the Mandarin version of "The Destiny of the Next Life".

In the next few days, Jiang Xiaofeng released several new songs such as "Cold to the End" and "Love Because of Love".

Seeing that Jiang Xiaofeng's creative ability reached its peak, one good song after another, not only Chen Jiaying exclaimed "I found a treasure", but even Liang Rongjun's appreciation for Jiang Xiaofeng, a young man, has reached a very high level. He is about to become his "uncle fan".

However, Liang Rongjun still has selfish intentions. Although these Mandarin songs created by Jiang Xiaofeng have the potential to become popular, he still looks forward to Jiang Xiaofeng's Cantonese songs. He hopes that Jiang Xiaofeng can create more songs like "Next Year Today" for the Xiangjiang music scene. The classic Cantonese hits.

March 8th, late.

The overseas premiere of the movie "Sunny Day" directed by Jiang Wen and starring Xia Yu, Ning Jing, Jiang Xiaofeng and Tao Hong was held in Xiangjiang.

Although the leading actor Xia Yu won the Best Actor Award at Venice, the Best Actor Award at the Golden Horse Awards, and the Best Actor Award at the Singapore International Film Festival for his role as Ma Xiaojun in the movie "Sunny Day", but not many people know him in Hong Kong.

Therefore, Jiang Wen specially invited Jiang Xiaofeng to attend the premiere of the movie "Sunny Day" in Xiangjiang.

Ning Jing also came, and as soon as she saw Jiang Xiaofeng, she took the initiative to go forward and gave him a big hug.

Because the time was too short, Jiang Xiaofeng only felt softness and had no other experience.

Looking at the more handsome Jiang Xiaofeng in front of her, Ning Jing couldn't help admiring: "Monk, I haven't seen you for two years. You have become more handsome and mature."

Jiang Xiaofeng smiled and asked back: "Sister Jing, I'm only 20 years old this year. I'm still young. How can I mature? Do you mean that I'm old?"

Seeing that Jiang Xiaofeng misunderstood her meaning, Ning Jing explained dumbfoundingly: "Monk, you misunderstood Sister Jing, Sister Jing didn't mean that, Sister Jing meant that you have become more... more masculine than before. Yes, you used to be a big boy, but now you look like a man."

Jiang Xiaofeng didn't take it to heart either, and replied with a smile: "Understood, sister Jing, you don't have to explain so much to me, I'm just kidding you."

Hearing Jiang Xiaofeng's words, Ning Jing also breathed a sigh of relief, and joked with a smile: "Monk, I didn't expect to see you for two years. You have grown a lot more courageous, and you already know how to make fun of your sister Jing."

However, Ning Jing was quite surprised to see dozens of Jiang Xiaofeng's loyal fans coming to the movie premiere, and couldn't help but sighed: "Monk, I didn't expect you to be so popular in Xiangjiang, there are fan groups cheering for you , and they were all young girls."

Facing Ning Jing's compliment, Jiang Xiaofeng just smiled and said humbly, "It's okay, it's so-so."

It is worth mentioning that that night, the film "Sunny Day" was screened simultaneously in nine theaters of the Hong Kong Pan-Ye Cinemas. In more than ten days, it set a box office of more than 500 million Hong Kong dollars and was listed as one of the top ten most popular films in Hong Kong in 1995. One of the best-selling literary films.

The Hong Kong film industry and film critics have given the film unprecedented praise, and "Sunny Day" is therefore known as "the only mainland film with comprehensive praise" in the whole city of Hong Kong.

Xu Anhua, a famous female director of Xiangjiang, believes that the film is "the most creative and powerful Chinese film in recent years".

In our mainland, "Sunny Day" was first shown in Shanghai Daguangming, Cathay Pacific and other super-special theaters for a week, and then it was released in 30 theaters at the same time.

The first round of the film was released, which achieved a box office of more than 100 million. After the second and third rounds, it was screened in more than 50 major theaters in Shanghai for more than 20 consecutive days. score.

On Saturdays and Sundays, Da Guangming and He Ping Cinemas even saw audiences queuing up to buy tickets—a rare phenomenon in domestic film screenings over the years.

Paradise Company, the distribution agent of the Shanghai stock market, specially added a "fourth round of screening" for this purpose. As a result, the box office revenue exceeded 300 million.

For a while, "Sunny Day" became a topic of discussion everywhere, and became a hot spot in the social and cultural life of Huaguo in the second half of 1995.

In the end, the total box office of the movie "Sunny Day" reached 5000 million yuan in the mainland. Based on the average ticket price of 5 yuan, about 1000 million people watched this movie, and the average ticket price of 50 yuan Twenty years later, the total box office of the film is equivalent to 20 million yuan!

At the same time, Jiang Xiaofeng's role as Liu Yiku in the movie "Sunny Day" has also been recognized by many Xiangjiang fans.

It was also when the movie "Sunny Day" was released in Xiangjiang, Jiang Xiaofeng got some invitations from Xiangjiang Film and Television Company, inviting him to play the second male lead, or the third male lead in some movies, as well as guest appearances in friendship.

As for the male lead of Xiangjiang Films, unless he is the chosen one like Li Lianjie, otherwise, actors from other mainland basically don't have to think about the male lead.

The reason why Zhao Wenzhuo was able to act as the number one male in the movie in Xiangjiang was also due to the rise of Li Lianjie in Xiangjiang, because the film company here in Xiangjiang wanted to find a national martial arts champion who was close to Li Lianjie in all aspects, delusional to be able to replicate Li Lianjie's success the road.

Of course, the reason why they invited Jiang Xiaofeng to act in the movie was not mainly because of Jiang Xiaofeng's acting skills, but because of his high popularity in Xiangjiang.

This point is a bit similar to the "little whirlwind" Lin Zhiying who was so popular two years ago. He can be said to be popular in Asia at that time. Many film companies in Xiangjiang took a fancy to his high popularity and invited him to participate in movies. .

For example, Prince Jia in "New Meteor Butterfly Sword", and Han Lin in "Neur Knife and Flying Cat", etc., are all cameo roles of Lin Zhiying in the Xiangjiang film industry during his peak period.

However, the agent, Chen Jiaying, was quite rational and far-sighted. He didn't let Jiang Xiaofeng frantically take on dramas and commercials for short-term benefits. Instead, he helped Jiang Xiaofeng push several drama appointments.

In fact, Chen Jiaying's packaging for Wang Fei is also the same. What she wants is style. When Wang Fei is approached for general commercials and commercial performances, Chen Jiaying usually doesn't accept it. It's better to hold a large-scale concert directly, or accept the endorsement of some well-known brands.

Moreover, the film company's casting of Jiang Xiaofeng in a movie was a sign of eagerness for quick success. It was not a good movie or an important role. Even if Jiang Xiaofeng played it, it would not be of any help to his career.

In addition, Jiang Xiaofeng has been busy with the recording of the new album recently, and has no time to act in any movies or TV series.

Obviously, Chen Jiaying is also a gold medal agent with film and television resources in hand. Wang Fei's ability to star in "Chongqing Forest" directed by Wong Kar-wai is also inseparable from her strategizing.

Of course, if there is a good movie, or a suitable role for Jiang Xiaofeng, Chen Jiaying will also think about it, if Jiang Xiaofeng's schedule allows, whether to take it or not.

Time passed quickly, and it was late June in a blink of an eye.

After recording the song "The Most Beautiful", all 10 songs of Jiang Xiaofeng's album have been recorded, and the next step is to shoot the MV for this album.

After internal discussions, Jiang Xiaofeng's Mandarin album was finally named "Golden Age", implying that Jiang Xiaofeng has officially entered the golden age of singing career.

According to Chen Jiaying's plan, Xinyibao Records will complete the MV shooting and post-production of all songs in mid-September.

If there is no accident, Jiang Xiaofeng's album - "Golden Age" will be released simultaneously in Taiwan, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and other regions in late September.

After listening to several songs of Jiang Xiaofeng's latest record, Xiangjiang's Xinyibao, Taiwan Fumao Records and other record companies have placed high hopes on Jiang Xiaofeng's "Golden Age".
