Chapter One of the Night

   Chapter 9 Kojima Records

   The next day at eight o'clock in the morning, the two met at the entrance of the Conservatory of Music.

  An Xiaojing today wore a light green short woolen coat, red and white plaid scarf, paired with jeans and half-boots and leather shoes, sassy short hair, and a demure smile.

   is really top.

  Xu Zhenghua has always believed that only those who can wear short woolen coats to show their figure and temperament are called true beauties.

   The one who squeezed his chest and exposed his thighs, is a man who has to glance twice?

   But that is called meat, it has nothing to do with temperament.

   Even for the vast majority of girls, the more exposed they are, the further away they are from the word temperament.

   But then again, the more beautiful it is, the more capricious it is.

   A coat of this color, with a red and white scarf, is a super-confident girl who dares to wear it.

top.

   "Don't be nervous, I have met Mr. He several times. Although he is very powerful and has a strong and domineering temperament, he has always had a good attitude towards our artists. Don't be afraid!"

   Take a taxi today.

   And Xu Zhenghua consciously got into the back row boss directly.

   He doesn't have those rudeness. Why ride with a girl you don't know well, you'd better go to the front passenger seat or something like that - you don't even sit in the back row, how can you be familiar?

   But it may be that they are getting more and more familiar these days, but An Xiaojing didn't think there was anything wrong with Xu Zhenghua sitting in the back row with her. She was still as quiet as ever, but she couldn't help but be overjoyed. When the car started running, she calmly appeased Xu Zhenghua.

joke.

   Seeing a vice president, Xu Zhenghua might be nervous.

   "It's alright, as long as he's not nervous."

   "Bang!"

   She was so happy today that she even rolled her eyes angrily, as if she was winking.

   It can be seen that I really like it, and I especially want to get "Short Hair".

All the way to the downstairs of the record company, Xu Zhenghua took the initiative to pay, and when he got out of the car, he couldn't help but look up - it was a huge six-storey old building, it looked a little old, and the exposed red bricks were quite old. Mottled, according to the history of this time and space, this is the standard architectural style of the 1950s and 1960s.

   It is said that Kojima Records has a history of nearly fifty years.

  In the 1960s, they were once very powerful and had three top singers at the same time.

   Of course, the wind and clouds dissipated soon.

Previously, Xu Zhenghua specifically asked Guan Yulan to inquire about the company's history. It is said that in the mid-1970s, they were on the verge of bankruptcy for a time. Its label, but it has been stagnant, and it has only gradually recovered in recent years.

   In the 1980s, it was said that it was a winner-take-all era.

  The big record companies with powerful distribution channels in their hands have swallowed up their counterparts, big and small, and their size has suddenly increased, and basically established a big pattern in the record industry that continues to this day.

   For example, the Oriental Star Records, which Xu Zhenghua signed with Jin Xiaoqing and Zhang Yuan, was also in that era, and it was said that it was won over 60% of the controlling stake by Venus Records and became its subsidiary.

   And then, the entire distribution department of Oriental Star was packaged and integrated, completely turning into a secondary label without independent distribution capabilities.

   "Sister Guan! Hello, Brother Lu!"

   For this kind of thing, of course, you have to notify your agent in advance. Guan Yulan and Lu Ming have also arrived ahead of time, and they are hiding in the car. When they saw a pair of handsome men and women get out of the car, they opened the car door and got out.

   "It's really cold today, let's go, let's hurry in!"

  Lu Ming shook hands with Xu Zhenghua briefly and walked into the building first.

   No, it’s only late February, and it will take some days for the imperial capital to warm up completely.

   It was gloomy today, and it looked like it was going to snow.

   Entering the building, there is indeed an elevator, and it looks like it has been newly installed in recent years. The elevator is very new and stable - it can be seen that the business has been doing well in recent years.

   The original owner of the Oriental Star Records, which he signed with himself, has been there many times before, and the old elevators and the disrepair of many places inside are what settles in his memory.

   However, it is said that the business situation in recent years is also good, and it is also ready to renovate with money.

  An Xiaojing and Lu Ming were both familiar with each other. The elevator went to the fourth floor. Everyone came out together and went straight to one of the offices. They ordered Mr. He's assistant to hang up the number, and then they just waited.

An Xiaojing also introduced Xu Zhenghua in a low voice, "The fourth, fifth and sixth floors are all owned by our company. The sixth floor is the recording studio and the lounge. There are four studios in total, and the fifth floor is also the office. Yes, the fourth floor is mainly for the bosses. This building is too old and the sound insulation is poor, sometimes you can hear singing upstairs on the fifth floor!"

   Xu Zhenghua laughed.

   This girl is in such a good mood today!

   The frequency of speaking is many times higher than usual.

   But suddenly he remembered something and asked, "It was Mr. He who called you yesterday to inform you?"

"No, it's my producer, surnamed Luo, a producer with good grades and rich experience. He is very good at creating young girls who have just debuted, so the company specially assigned me to him and asked him to help me. single."

"Oh!"

   In fact, there are still some doubts and faint worries in my heart.

   But think about it again, since the other party directly said that he wanted to come over to sign the contract today, there must be no other troubles, right?

   It seems that the quality of "Short Hair" is excellent.

  Thinking about it, yesterday Du Xuelan's manager, Chen Bangdao, called just ten minutes before he received the notice. Maybe Du Xuelan didn't actually like the song, but just wanted to cut off Hu?

   Think of Du Xuelan's glamorous face on the album cover...

   Let's go together!

   belong to the same company, and they are all female singers!

  An Xiaojing's appearance is not inferior to her, but she is obviously younger!

   In the face-to-face competition of the same format, there will be some means to use it, which is really normal!

Just like Jin Xiaoqing, according to Guan Yulan, during the release of her singles and albums, she was stumped by another female singer in the same company. Although the company's internal rules were in place, she did not dare to do anything blatantly. But you have to choose to cause trouble and gossip at the same time, including arguing with others. In short, trying everything to gain page and attention, tempting the company to send her a single while it is hot, to a certain extent crowding out and It is an indisputable fact that it dilutes the publicity and distribution resources that Jin Xiaoqing should have.

   As a result, Jin Xiaoqing's album, which had a good reputation, was pressed to the market for nearly a year, but it was stunned that it failed to break through the platinum line.

   Where fame and fortune lie, it is hard to stop tearing and persecuting.

   "Hello Teacher Luo!"

   was about to ask An Xiaojing a few more questions, when she suddenly looked away, and then Xu Zhenghua followed her line of sight, and saw a middle-aged man in his forties approaching.

   "Hey, Xiaojing is here!"

The man looked very kind, and he was a little bald. At first glance, he looked like an artist, with a strong artistic temperament. Seeing Xu Zhenghua, he reached out his hand before waiting for An Xiaojing's introduction. Is that Xu Zhenghua from "Short Hair"?"

   "Hello, Teacher Luo! I'm Xu Zhenghua."

   "Hello, hello! The song is well written! Mr. He and I both like it. We will collaborate more in the future!"

   "Ok ok!"

  Huh...Relaxed!

Luo Guangming saw two people, and even brought their agents, shaking hands with the two agents who took the initiative to come forward, and then reacted, "Oh, by the way, you are here to sign the contract for "Short Hair", right? ?"

   got a positive answer, he laughed, "I said, Mr. He told me to come here at ten o'clock!"

   But he quickly looked at An Xiaojing again, "But, why are you running here? No class today?"

  An Xiaojing was stunned for a moment, "Didn't you call me to come?"

Luo Guangming was even more stunned when he heard the words, "I don't have the contact information of Xu Zhenghua's agent, and I don't bother to look up your agent's number, so I called you and asked you to notify Xiao Xu to come here! I didn't say let me. You too!"

  An Xiaojing was even more stunned.

   Xu Zhenghua's heart moved, and he was about to ask, when suddenly, the office door not far ahead opened, and the two walked out with a smile, and shook hands solemnly at the door to say goodbye.

   One of them came over and nodded at Luo Guangming, "Hello, Teacher Luo!"

  Luo Guangming also greeted him with a smile, "Mr. Zhou, is this signed?"

   "Signed! Let's go, drink another day!"

   "Okay, back to chat!"

   While the two were greeting each other, the person who had just seen the guest out had already come over at the same time.

   He looks in his thirties, quite handsome.

   So handsome that he doesn't look like a professional manager, but like an actor or host.

   Far away, he already showed a warm smile, "Haha, you are Teacher Xu, right? Xu Zhenghua, right? You are really young! Come on, handsome guy, let's talk!"
