Treasure Island 1992, starting from the Four Little Heavenly Kings

After Taihua Records signed contracts with several singers, they immediately prepared record release plans for them.

For those with creative ability, quickly review their songs.

For those who do not have the ability to create, the company will provide them with creative personnel to create tailor-made songs.

It’s worth saying something here.

In the entire Chinese music scene, Pacific Entertainment definitely has the most songwriters.

Since Chen Qiming improved the company's treatment for creators, a large number of songwriters have joined Pacific.

In terms of famous songwriters alone, Pacific accounts for more than 60% of Hong Kong and Taiwan.

And this number continues to expand.

With the establishment of Taihua Records in the mainland, a large number of well-known songwriters and composers from the mainland were attracted and joined the record company one after another.

In addition, in recent years, Pacific Entertainment's singers have a luxurious lineup, and many of them have begun to transfer their contracts to Taihua. This has made the newly established Taihua Records become the leading major record company in the mainland as soon as it was established, and it was very prestigious for a while.

And Chen Qiming personally.

After he was established in Taihua, he stayed in the mainland for two days and then rushed to the beautiful country to start the production of his new album.

Many songs in the new album require the use of a lot of new electronic equipment, some of which are very expensive, and some of which are only available from big manufacturers.

After all, Chen Qiming doesn't plan to be an electronic music singer for a long time, so he naturally doesn't have to ask the company to buy a bunch of similar equipment.

These devices are simply too expensive.

The top ones cost at least millions of dollars in total.

Rather than investing the money in this, Chen Qiming might as well sign a few more new people, release records for them, or shoot a few movies.

Therefore, Chen Qiming chose to borrow the equipment.

Borrowed from Warner Records.

If you can't borrow it, go directly to Warner Bros. to use it.

Warner Records is eager for Chen Qiming to release the record quickly.

So it was impossible to say no.

A month passed quickly. In February, Chen Qiming returned to China to celebrate the New Year.

This year, like last year, he did not accept the invitation to the Spring Festival Gala.

The reason why is not accepted.

The main reason is that Chen Qiming feels that he has attended the Spring Festival Gala almost every year in the past few years, which has almost caused visual fatigue.

It would be nice to take a few years off, so Chen Qiming declined the invitation to the Spring Festival Gala.

However, although Chen Qiming refused, he still recommended people from his company to the Spring Festival Gala.

Jay Chou, the idol group of the era.

In the end, the Spring Festival Gala chose the idol group of the times to participate in the Spring Festival Gala in Beijing.

It's not that they think Jay Chou is not good.

The main reason is to integrate with internationalization.

Last September this year, the era idol group released their first official album.

Once this album was released, it immediately became a hit in the market.

Don't mention Nicholas Tse, without good creators to help him.

Less than three days after he started playing with the idol group in September, he was left far behind by the idol group.

This time, Nicholas Tse remained silent when reporters asked him about provoking Chen Qiming.

Closer to home.

The idol group of the era debuted in September, and after the album was released, it quickly became a hit throughout Asia in October.

In Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Japan, Korea, Thailand and other places, this group's records are selling very well.

Throughout October, the idol group's sales in Asia were once comparable to Chen Qiming's "Chen Qiming 1999", which was the most popular album in Asia last year.

In fact, in the final analysis, the idol group of the era still took advantage of the trend of the era.

As the first large-scale group to make an official cross-border debut, the idol group of the era, which is full of handsome boys, is completely popular among fans and audiences today. From Chen Qiming's perspective, the quality of their album may be okay.

But in terms of classicness, it's actually just average.

But just such a record, unexpectedly, sold a terrifying six million copies in Asia in four months.

Let the idol group of the era become the second singer after Chen Qiming to arouse large-scale fan following in Japan, South Korea and other countries.

Compared with the idol groups of the era, Jay Chou seems a little inferior.

He is the kind of person who is steady and steady.

If you look carefully.

You will find that this guy's popularity and popularity are increasing year by year.

His unique singing style and unparalleled creative talent make him a treasured singer in the eyes of many Chen Qiming fans.

Think of him as the singer most likely to be close to Chen Qiming, and also the singer whose style is most similar to Chen Qiming.

It's also Chen Qiming's fault. He has previously released songs such as "Daoxiang" and "Blue and White Porcelain" that should have been Jay Chou's most personal style.

This has led to the fact that Jay Chou's style is no longer niche due to him, but has become the most popular currently because of Chen Qiming.

This is indeed good for Jay Chou.

This makes it easier for the audience to accept him.

But at the same time, he was also imprisoned in the shadow of Chen Qiming, and he was considered to be imitating Chen Qiming's style.

Jay Chou: Ouch! No, this is my style. I don’t know what I say.
So it is.

One is a group that is popular in Asia, in line with international standards, and has a large number of crazy and loyal fans.

The other is a singer whose popularity is not at the top in the music world and has the shadow of Chen Qiming.

Naturally, the Spring Festival Gala programs will give priority to the most popular ones.

As a result, the idol group of the era appeared on the Spring Festival Gala stage in their first year of debut.

It is worth mentioning that this year, many singers from Hong Kong and Taiwan participated in the Spring Festival Gala.

Most of these people are newly emerging singers.

Except for the King of Heaven who accepted the Spring Festival Gala invitation in the morning, the others did not attend the Spring Festival Gala, but were attended by the new generation.

For example, Nicholas Tse here in Hong Kong.

Although Nicholas Tse was beaten a bit badly by the idol of the era.

But you have to admit, this guy has something.

If a singer can become the first choice singer of Emperor Records, if he does not have two brushes and a large amount of popular support, Emperor Records will not be able to do charity for him.

On the Baodao side, Ren Xianqi was selected to attend the Spring Festival Gala for the first time.

Three minutes of silence for Xiao Qi.

Because Chen Qiming copied his most popular songs, he failed to achieve the popularity he dreamed of.

Chen Qiming, who returned to China, has not been waiting idlely for the New Year.

He went to check out several film projects the company was currently working on.

The filming of "Zheng He's Voyages to the West" is in good order and is currently over halfway through, and is expected to be released during the summer vacation.

The other is the post-production of "Resident Evil 2".

The filming of this film was completed at the end of the year and is in the later stages of completion. It will be released globally in the near future.

At that time, Chen Qiming will also attend the premiere in Hong Kong to help canvass votes for the movie.

Then there is "The Lonely Agent 2" starring Andy Lau.

This project integrates "Hurricane Rescue" and will be one of the company's important projects in the future.

It will also be Andy Lau's masterpiece in Hollywood.
