People in Hong Kong create super chaebols

Chapter 199 The world’s self-healing power

"Tan Yonglin and Chen Baiqiang are okay, but it is a bit difficult to bring Xu Xiaofeng and Deng Lijun over."

Liang Shuyi was not surprised when she heard Su Cheng's words. It was obvious that she had known these people in advance.

"Oh? How difficult is it?" Su Cheng asked.

"The Wenner Band just announced its disbandment this year, and all the members of the band have begun personal development. As the lead singer of the band, Tan Yonglin, as far as I know, is still considering the next way out and has not signed with other companies yet;

After Chen Baiqiang won the third place in the "Hong Kong Popular Song Creation Invitational Competition" with his self-composed English song "Rocky Road" in 1977, he was signed as a singer by TVB. I used to know him when I was an executive at TVB, and he was just a For an ordinary signed singer, the liquidated damages are not high, and it is very easy to poach him;
And Xu Xiaofeng just switched jobs from Eternal Records to Sony Records this year. The album "Wind and Rain Together" which was released just over two months ago has sold more than 20 copies in Hong Kong. Liquidated damages are one thing. Is she willing to switch jobs frequently? Another difficulty;
Teresa Teng joined PolyGram Records in Hong Kong in 1975 and received strong support from the company. Now she is prosperous in Hong Kong, Wanwan, Southeast Asia and Japan. It is estimated that her willingness to change jobs is not strong. Our Jiayi Records It's just a start-up company, so people may not take it seriously. "

As expected, Liang Shuyi knew their situation very well.

"Mr. Liang, you know the Hong Kong music scene very well!" Su Cheng exclaimed.

"I don't know much about it. It's just that when you asked me to set up the record department at Jiayi, I specially asked someone to investigate the situation of the Xiangjiang music scene, and I have a certain understanding of the general situation of the entire music scene." Liang Shuyi explained.

Su Cheng thought for a while and then said: "It's up to you to handle Chen Baiqiang and Alan Tam and bring them to our company as soon as possible; it's up to you to contact Teresa Deng and Xu Xiaofeng secretly. When you get in touch, find someone. Make an appointment and I will talk to them in person!"

An ordinary singer may not be worth talking to Su Cheng personally.

But Xu Xiaofeng and Deng Lijun are different. It can be said that these two singers are his favorites.

In addition, Xu Xiaofeng and Teresa Teng will be the pinnacle figures in the Chinese music scene in the future, and it is worthy of Su Cheng to personally invite them to join.

The influence of celebrities is too high for ordinary people.

This is an era of fan economy. Crazy fans can bring many extended values ​​to the company.

With so many industries under Sioux City, many popular artists are needed to advertise, so finding one of your own is the easiest thing to do.

This is why he attaches so much importance to the entertainment industry.

Although the entertainment industry is not as profitable as the technology industry, if done well, it can complement all industries.

"Boss, can you handle these two popular singers?" Liang Shuyi asked in surprise.

"I have my own way. You will naturally know when the time comes. By the way, how much is their liquidated damages?" Su Cheng asked.

"Both of them are now top-notch singers. The liquidated damages start at least several million Hong Kong dollars. I need to find out more about the specific amount." Liang Shuyi thought for a while and said.

In the 70s, millions of Hong Kong dollars were already very high, so it may not seem like much, but for singers in this era, millions of Hong Kong dollars are definitely a huge sum of money.

If the price exceeds hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars, Sioux City will have to consider it.

Millions of Hong Kong dollars, for Sioux City, can only be said to be nothing more than pocket money.

"Well, I'll leave the singer's matter to you. Get it done as soon as possible. If these four singers are brought over, it will be of great help to Jiayi Records. From now on, Jiayi TV Station can hold a large-scale singer event every year Selection competitions are held to attract more outstanding new singers, and if they meet the right ones, they will be kept.

I predict that the future music scene will enter an era of bright stars. You must seize this good opportunity and do well. I fully support it! "

The music scene in the 70s may have been calm.

But the music scene in the 80s was destined to be the beginning of the peak of Hong Kong entertainment.

"Okay, boss, I will complete the matters arranged by you as soon as possible. I will try to bring the two singers Chen Baiqiang and Tan Yonglin to our side within a week. As for the other two, if they are contacted, I will contact them immediately. Boss, you are here.

Television, movies, and records are all very important parts of the entertainment industry. I will not just focus on TV stations and movies and neglect the music industry. "Liang Shuyi said solemnly.

"By the way, how are the preparations for "Shanghai Bund" going?" Su Cheng asked.

If we don't prepare to start filming, maybe TVB will start writing the script. When the time comes, both parties will find that the content is exactly the same. It will be embarrassing and they won't know who it is.

"Boss, you can rest assured that we have already made preparations for the crew of "Shanghai Bund", but we have not yet determined all the actors.

Last time, you suggested that Zhou Runfa and Zhao Yazhi should be the male and female actors, and I secretly made an appointment with them. Last week, I successfully got them to switch jobs.

After auditions, we found that the ones you recommended, boss, are really good. They fit the image of the male and female protagonists of this TV series so well.

When we recruited Zhao Yazhi, it went very smoothly. After we raised the salary, she quickly agreed to our request and directly broke the contract and came over from TVB.

As for Zhou Runfa, I couldn't talk to him originally, because TVB now attaches great importance to him and plans to train him to become a film and television superstar. Even if I increase his salary to 50% higher than that of TVB, he will not care at all. Tempting.

But later on, when I heard that you, the boss, asked me to recruit him and appoint him to be the leading actor in an important TV series, he actually agreed. I have to say, it is because of you, boss, that you have the most respect.

In addition, after Zhou Runfa secretly reached an agreement with us and I showed him the script, he recommended Lu Liangwei, who also debuted in the TVB artist training class, to play the role of Ding Li, but we have not decided yet. "

Liang Shuyi reported in detail the specific progress of "Shanghai Beach".

The reason why Zhou Runfa agreed to change jobs was probably because a previous meeting made the boss in Su Cheng leave a very good impression on Zhou Runfa.

Moreover, today's Jiayi TV Station is booming, and the treatment here is much better than at TVB. If Jiayi TV Station values ​​him as much as TVB, then it will actually be the same wherever he is.

However, Su Cheng did not expect that Zhou Runfa would suggest Lu Liangwei to take on the role of Ding Li.

Because in another world, it was Lu Liangwei who played the important role of Ding Li.

Even if the development history is changed by Sioux City, some trends will gradually move closer to the trends of another world.

Su Cheng had to wonder, is this the world's self-healing power?
