216 My Uncle Hong Yingjun Has A Lot Of Influence On You, Just Say That (3/3)
"Uncle, you really don't need it, I..."
Yang Qian pinched the red bag and pushed it back while trying to explain clearly that he had prepared a gift.
But the name Hong Yingjun said next made him freeze on the spot, and he was so frightened that he quickly held it steady, fearing that he would accidentally drop this precious record.
"A record signed by Ye Manqing. No matter what Xiao Dai's family does, as long as her father likes to listen to music, there is no way he won't like this gift from you!"
Hong Yingjun said quite proudly.
Ye Manqing?
Not to mention Yang Qian couldn't sit still, even Yang Huaping, who was rummaging through the cabinet to find medicinal wine and wanted to have a few drinks with Hong Yingjun, came over in surprise!
"Ye Manqing? Do you have her records?"
Yang Huaping looked at the red bag in disbelief, as if he wanted to see the "beautiful shadow" inside through the bag.
What kind of star is Ye Manqing?
Famous doesn't seem to sum up her achievements. She can almost be regarded as the number one person in the Chinese music scene in the world!
In her short music career of more than thirty years, no one could match her achievements, and in the twenty years after she left, no one could start from Hong Kong and become famous like her.
All over Asia, no one doesn’t love her and everyone knows her!
Xiniya, Kong Qiang, and Xie Fei are the queens and superstars after her, but none of them can compare with Ye Manqing, and no one even thinks that they can be compared with Ye Manqing.
It seems that she is the absolute number one sister in the front row!
Of course, there are similar singers on earth, that is Teresa Teng, whom Yang Qian got to know through "Seeing the Smoke Again".
However, it seems that God is jealous of beauty. Ye Manqing also died of illness in the last year of the twentieth century, and her glory remained in the previous century.
But to this day, many people still like and miss Ye Manqing. Later, many people in the music world imitated Ye Manqing's singing, and various "little Ye Manqing" appeared.
It is worth mentioning that Xie Fei also had the nickname "Little Ye Manqing" when she was young, but later on, her voice was completely different from Ye Manqing's. She walked her own way, so few people still call her this nickname.
Number.
But the key question is not how good Ye Manqing is!
What’s amazing is that Yang Qian’s brother-in-law, Hong Yingjun, actually has a record signed by Ye Manqing?
This is amazing!
Yang Qian found it even more incredible - why haven't I heard him say this before?
"I didn't mention it before. The main reason is that this record is too precious. If you take it out, many people will definitely come to ask for it. That's why I have been hiding it for so many years since I came back to Yangcheng!"
Hong Yingjun was quite proud.
You can see now how enthusiastic everyone is about Ye Manqing's autograph!
Yang Huaping and Hong Xiaoxia both urged him to open it for everyone to see.
Everyone is curious about what Ye Manqing's autograph looks like.
"I acquired this from a man named Lao from Hong Kong City twenty-four years ago. At that time, Ye Manqing was still alive. That young man's father was Lao Guanjie, who used to be a salesperson at UMG Music Company in Hong Kong City.
The manager keeps in touch with me more and takes better care of me in business..."
As Hong Yingjun spoke, he opened the red bag and took out the CD records carefully preserved in a transparent box.
UMG is the top four record company in the world that Kong Qiang wanted to lure Yang Qian to.
In the 1990s, Jinli Records, where Ye Manqing was working, was bought by UMG. Although Ye Manqing had gradually faded out of the music scene at that time, and his work and life had little to do with Jinli Records, as a manager of UMG, he was able to get Ye Manqing's
Signing a record shouldn't be difficult.
No one has ever seen Ye Manqing's signature, but looking at the artistic signatures of "Helen Yeh" and "Ye Manqing" on the carefully preserved record, coupled with Lao Guanjie's identity, Yang Qian felt that the authenticity was not a big deal.
There is also the words 10.5.1994 under the signature.
It shows that this album was signed in 1994!
"After Lao Guanjie passed away, his son wanted to sell his father's collection. Fortunately, Ye Manqing was still around at that time. The signed record I bought from him didn't cost much..."
Hong Yingjun said proudly, but then he stopped mid-sentence.
It was indeed not worth much back then, but it is different now!
The legend is gone, and fans can only pay tribute to her through her music or some of her signature works.
It is said that in the cemetery where Ye Manqing was buried, many people spent huge sums of money to buy the cemetery in the same cemetery, not for publicity, but just thinking that after their death, they could be buried with the idol they had loved for many years!
You can imagine how much money these crazy fans spent to buy such a signed record!
Yang Qian didn't know it now, but later he checked on the Internet. A few years ago, a photo signed by Ye Manqing sold for more than 300,000 yuan at an auction because it had the words "Dedicated to Godfather" written on it.
sky-high price!
Her signed CD may not be worth that much, but it's definitely not cheap either.
In a small city like Hecheng, it is probably worth the down payment of a small house!
"Uncle, this is your treasure, I can't have it."
Yang Qian looked at Ye Manqing's signed album, and although he was a little moved, he still endured it, shook his head, and handed it back to Hong Yingjun.
"Just take it if it's given to you. Why are you talking so much nonsense? And I'm not giving it to you, I'm giving it to your future father-in-law! Your mother also said that their family is not short of money, so it's pointless to give it to other things.
This record is just right, it’s what I like, it’s high quality and reasonably priced!”
Hong Yingjun didn't answer and waved his hand, looking impatient.
He had watched Yang Qian grow up since childhood. Compared to his own son, Hong Yingjun looked at Yang Qian more kindly.
After all, Yang Qian is a person who likes music. Hong Yingjun gave him so many records and tapes, and Yang Qian kept them well. Now he is embarking on the road of music again, which makes Hong Yingjun feel so proud!
Just like his sister, Hong Yingjun always talks about his great nephew when meeting people, saying that Yang Qian's musical inspiration came from him.
In fact, his singing is also tone-deaf, but there is no problem if it comes from him. After all, Yang Qian's musical enlightenment came from his records and tapes.
For the sake of Yang Qian's future happiness, Hong Yingjun did not hesitate to take out his treasures for many years and give them as gifts to Yang Qian.
"Uncle, this record is definitely worth a lot of money now. I really can't have it... How about this, treat it as if I bought it from you, tell me a price, and I'll transfer the money to you right away!"
Yang Qian couldn't push it back, so he could only change his explanation.
Although Yang Qian doesn't know how much this record is worth, he currently has more than one million in his bank account. It's unlikely that a signed record will be worth more than this, right?
"What money are you telling my uncle? Just take it. When I bought this record with that prodigal son, we only spent three hundred yuan!"
Hong Yingjun couldn't help but want to brag again.
Three hundred yuan twenty years ago was actually only worth more than three thousand yuan now.
Buying a signed record by Ye Manqing for more than 3,000 yuan is indeed a huge profit.
Yang Qian insisted on giving money and even took out his mobile phone to ask others how much Ye Manqing's signed album was worth.
Hong Yingjun waved his hand, his face turned red as if he had drunk wine, and he said with a smile:
"If you mention money again, it will hurt your feelings. If you become a big star in the future, if there is any interview, you can mention your brother-in-law's name more and say that he also liked music before and sold genuine records.
Your musical inspiration has brought a lot of, well, quite a lot of influence, let’s put it that way!”
