Chapter 389 The Chinese Music World and Tangting Culture Production Manager (4000+ chapters~)
Lei went back excitedly, leaving Liu, Cui Jian, Zhao Baogang and Feng Pengtong still at Tangting Culture.
Cui Jian was playing with the instruments in the recording studio excitedly, and the depression on his face when he just came over had long disappeared.
"How is it, are you satisfied here?" Wu Jianye asked with a smile.
Cui Jian nodded and said: "Satisfied, so satisfied. Lao Wu, the instruments and recording equipment here are the best. Do you plan to make another album?"
Wu Jianye shook his head, "I don't have time. I'm too busy. I may not be able to work on the album in the future. This is for singers from Tangting Culture. I am planning to set up a record company under Tangting Culture."
After saying that, Wu Jianye glanced at Cui Jian and said with a smile: "How about it, are you interested in becoming the first signed singer of Tangting Records? Anyway, you were fired from the symphony orchestra."
Last year was Cui Jian's first peak year. Classic songs such as "Rock on the New Long March Road", "Nothing", "No More Hiding" and "Runaway" were all composed during this year.
At the end of the year, Yenching University even established the ‘Yenda Cui Jian Supporters Association’, which was the second supporter association in the country.
The first fan club organization was the 'Wu Jianye Fan Club', which was jointly established by students from many universities in Yanjing. It was established after the Save Life concert, but because Wu Jianye had not released a record for a long time.
So now this support club is not as lively as it was before the beginning.
Except for some old people who play music who know it, newcomers don’t know it anymore.
However, this year Cui Jian got more serious. When he performed at the Yanjing Stadium, he sang a rock cover of the classic song "Nanniwan", which caused his own music to be banned, and Cui Jian himself was fired from the symphony orchestra...
...
Cui Jian said with some excitement: "If you had told me earlier, it would be no problem, but I have already agreed to ado before, and now I come to you, I'm afraid it's inappropriate, right?"
Ado is one of the veteran bands of Chinese rock music. The band has four members, drummer San'er, saxophone Liu Yuan, who are Chinese, guitarist and vocalist Eddie is from Madagascar, and bassist Balash is Hungarian.
San'er was even known as one of the best drummers in China, but it was a pity that he died young.
Wu Jianye said nonchalantly: "This is simple, just invite us together!"
Cui Jian smiled happily: "That's no problem, San'er and the others have wanted to see you for a long time!"
"Then it's settled. You hurry up and call them here in the next two days. I won't be able to stay in Yanjing for a few days and I'm going to Phoenix City soon." Wu Jianye said.
"No problem!" Cui Jian made an OK gesture.
Wu Jianye then invited Liu again. Liu himself also wanted to find a professional recording studio, and now he also wanted to sign with his own record company, so he agreed without much thought.
However, Liu still said: "But I may not have that much time to record songs or participate in performances. After all, there are still classes at school!"
Wu Jianye has no objection to this. People like Liu and Cui Jian have always been known for their personalities. They cannot be restricted by the inherent business model. Only by giving them more free space can they create more
Excellent work.
In fact, people in this era are all similar, and so are Wang Shuo and others.
However, with the development of the industrialization of the entertainment industry, such a model is not something that ordinary entertainment companies can afford, because these people are like throwing away antiques. They often do not open for three years and only open for three years. Entertainment companies simply cannot afford it.
.
Therefore, this form will slowly disappear in the future.
In fact, the most popular music style in China in the past two years is not Cui Jian's rock style, but the northwest style.
"Xintianyou", "My Passionate Hometown", "Loess Plateau", etc. are representative songs of this type.
In fact, not only has the northwest wind become popular in the Chinese music scene in the past two years, but also in the Chinese film industry, such as Chen Kaige's "Yellow Earth" and Wu Tianming's "Old Man".
Well", and even "Red Sorghum" that Lao Mouzi is currently filming.
If nothing else happens, these three pure northwest songs, "Sister, Go Forward Boldly", "Dionysian Song" and "Bumping Sedan Song", will still become the interludes of "Red Sorghum".
In the process of the rise of "Northwest Wind", many media in the Chinese mainland also contributed a lot. These mass communication tools have for the first time realized their overall influence on the pop music market, the broadcast of TV series, various TV evening parties, radio
The music, the sound of "northwest wind" could not be heard for a while.
In the literary supplements of many newspapers and entertainment magazines, many critics expressed their opinions on "Northwest Wind". Reporters dropped out a large number of singers, and the author conducted exclusive interviews to introduce the trends of "Northwest Wind" to fans. There are several professional music journals
There are even columns for "Northwestern Wind Songs" and "Northwestern Folk Songs".
It is a pity that this northwest wind did not blow for a long time in the domestic music scene. In just two or three years, it was wiped out by everyone.
Then there is the rise of Cantonese songs...
"Teacher Wu, if you want to set up a record company, why don't you sign a few more singers? Cheng is quite popular right now!" Feng Pants suggested.
Wu Jianye shook his head and said, "No need, let's get Lao Cui and Liu settled first!"
Currently, there are no comprehensive laws and regulations regarding singers' contracts in China. This has also led to many singers immediately leaving their original record companies and working alone after becoming famous.
This was a very common behavior throughout the late eighties.
Wu Jianye didn't want to find some singers that he didn't know much about, or that he couldn't control.
In this era, the music tape business is even more prosperous. For example, the tape factory that has already left Tunan Technology has already had its sales in the past two years close to that of the Walkman.
The sales volume of a music tape produced by an ordinary singer is between 50,000 and 1,000,000.
However, the domestic music industry, like the film industry, experienced its own ups and downs from the late 1980s to the 1990s.
In 1990, the sales volume of this tape dropped to 30,000 copies...
The gap is so huge that it is unimaginable.
At that time, domestic singers also began to have a career in acupuncture, but they were basically fixed in Yanjing, Shanghai, Guangdong and other places. However, even at this stage, most of the domestic singers were still arrogant.
.
There are endless attempts to increase prices before going on stage. Coupled with the closer ties between Hong Kong and the country, Hong Kong and Taiwan singers enter the country to seize the market, causing the domestic music market to become more and more sluggish...
But that's all for the future. What Wu Jianye has to do now is to establish the outline of Tangting Records first, and grow slowly like Tangting Culture.
The subsequent negotiations with ADO also went very smoothly. When I met Wu Jianye, he looked like a little fanboy.
.......
"Xiaowan, I'm looking for you this time for two reasons."
Before heading to Phoenix City, Wu Jianye met with his last guest, Li Xiaowan.
Because Lin Shen had already played the little emperor in "The Last Emperor" before, and because of Li Shaohong, the relationship between the two parties has always been good.
Li Xiaowan quickly smiled and said: "Director Wu, if you need anything, just ask me!"
Wu Jianye waved his hand, "As you know, I will start filming a new movie in the second half of the year. There is a child's role in the movie, which is very suitable for Lin Shen. I want Lin Shen to continue playing me.
This role in the movie, but if you want to film this role, you will have to go to Jiayuguan and other places with us to shoot, and the conditions may be a bit difficult!"
The Minister of War has two children, a little boy and a little girl. As for the little boy, Wu Jianye was very satisfied with Lin Shen's performance in "The Last Emperor", so he still wanted to take him with him this time.
Li Xiaowan asked worriedly at first: "Director Wu, what do you mean by hard work?"
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "Of course it's the environment there."
After thinking for a while, Li Xiaowan said: "It's okay. This child is sensible now. Last time, he clamored to tell me that he wanted to continue playing with his Uncle Wu."
"Okay, that's settled this matter, now let's talk about the second thing!"
Wu Jianye glanced at Li Xiaowan, who was a little confused, and then continued: "It's like this. Now the development of Tangting Culture is getting faster and faster, and the management staff can't keep up. I want Xiaowan to come to Tangting Culture."
, as the manager of the production department, his first job was to be the producer of "New Dragon Inn"."
With the development of the domestic entertainment industry, after 2000 years, three major female agents appeared among domestic agents, namely the first agent Wang Jinghua, who was known as Sister Hua.
Wang Jinghua started to get involved in the brokerage industry in 1991. She first brought out Gao Xiaosong, Dai Rao, Li Huizhen, etc., and then Shuang Bing, Hu, Chen Daoming, etc. were all related to her.
It's just that Wang Jinghua was too noisy. She ran away twice and cheated Huayi and Chengtian companies one after another, causing their vitality to be severely damaged. When Wu Jianye was reborn, they had not yet recovered.
Of course, Wu Jianye is not afraid that she will also change jobs. Huayi and Chengtian's inability to retain her is definitely not due to one reason. The most important thing is that Wang Jinghua is not in Yanjing now. It is too troublesome to find her, so it is better to wait until later.
talk later.
The other one is Chang Jihong, and the people under him are also famous, such as Jiang Wenli in the early period, Sun Li, Liu Ye, Yu and others in the middle period, Wang Luodan and Huang in the later period...
However, the situation is somewhat similar to Wang Jinghua’s. Wu Jianye doesn’t know where she is now...
The last one left is the Li Xiaowan in front of her. Chen Kun, Zhou, Huang Jue, Da Mi Mi, Zhang Jingchu, etc. were all her soldiers.
The most important thing is that Li Xiaowan is not only very successful as an agent, but also very successful as a producer.
Excellent TV series such as "Ci of the Ming Dynasty", "April in the World", "Oranges Are Red", and "The Tribulation of Life and Death" were all produced by her.
With the development of the domestic entertainment industry, the later development of Tangting Culture will no longer be just a development of Wu Jianye alone. It will definitely attract more directors, actors, and singers. When Wu Jianye leaves Yan
When Jing goes out to film, he also needs someone with outstanding ability to help him stay in the rear.
Now it seems that Li Xiaowan is a good candidate.
Being the producer of "New Dragon Inn" was Wu Jianye's first test for Li Xiaowan.
"Join Tangting Culture?" Li Xiaowan didn't expect that Wu Jianye wanted to win her over to Tangting Culture. At this moment, she didn't know how to answer.
Li Xiaowan's current working relationship is still in the creative department of Yan Film Studio.
For people in this era, it is a very bold act to leave one's iron job and work for a private company. Most people do not have this courage.
"It's okay. You can think about this matter. I can stay in Yanjing for two more days. Just give me an accurate reply before I leave!" Wu Jianye said.
Wu Jianye knew that such a major matter must be discussed with his family, so he gave Li Xiaowan a buffer time.
After handling Li Xiaowan's affairs, Wu Jianye went to see Li Xiuming. After all, he would leave Yanjing again in a few days. When he came back from Yanjing, it would be almost time for Zhu to give birth to his son, and he would definitely not have time to see her by then.
Li Xiu understood.
The day before Wu Jianye left, Li Xiaowan found Wu Jianye.
"Director Wu, I will be your soldier from now on. Please take good care of me in the future!" Li Xiaowan finally decided to work at Tangting Culture.
Li Xiaowan's salary at Yanying Factory is less than 100 yuan per month, while Tangting Culture's salary is 500 yuan per month. At the same time, Wu Jianye also promised her that there will be more benefits for her in the future.
she.
At the same time, although Li Xiaowan is in the creative department of Yan Film Studio, she still appears more as an assistant director, scriptwriter and other miscellaneous roles. Now Tangting Culture has given her another way out. Li Xiaowan, who has ideas in her heart, naturally does not
I might give up this opportunity.
"Haha, welcome!" Wu Jianye laughed and shook hands with her.
Then he called Xia Xiaohong and asked her to take Li Xiaowan to see the office that had been prepared for her.
.......
"How long will it take to go this time?" Zhu Zheng stood next to Wu Jianye and watched him pack his luggage. Originally, she was going to help, but seeing how difficult it was for her to bend down, Wu Jianye asked where he was.
Dare you let Zhu take action?
"It won't take long. The main thing is to go where to shoot, and then find a suitable shooting place. I'll be back in about a week or two!" Wu Jianye said warmly.
Zhu nodded and said: "Then please pay attention to safety over there!"
"Don't worry, Xiao Feifei and Feng Pants will come with me this time, everything will be fine!"
"You should also pay attention to safety on the road, and you should also pay attention to safety on the road when driving." Zhu said still a little worried.
After listening to Zhu's instructions, Wu Jianye realized that this was a problem.
"That's a problem. Okay, I'll call Zhou Tao and ask him to send some security guards to come with us!" Wu Jianye said.
