Save the Bachelor of Heaven

  Chapter 556 557【Drum record】

   After Xiang Nan arrived in Yanjing, he went to see that sister first.

The elder sister was full of praise for the few songs he wrote, "brother, your creative talent is really amazing. For the few songs you wrote, even our company's creative masters are full of praise. Our boss is also very impressed. I appreciate your talent and want to cooperate with you. How about it, are you interested?"

   "Sister, which company are you from?" Xiang Nan asked curiously upon hearing this.

   "Drum Record Company." The sister said proudly.

  Xiang Nan smiled.

  Drum Record Company was founded in Baodao in the 1980s. After nearly 20 years of development, it has now become the overlord of the Chinese music scene.

  It has countless famous singers, such as Zhou Huajian, Ren Xianqi, Su Huilun, Liu Ruoxi, Xu Huaiyu, Du Dewei, Lin Yilian and so on.

  However, as far as Xiang Nan knows, in the late 1990s, due to the chaotic management of Drum Records, there was a lot of waste of resources, and the company began to decline.

   And its artists were also greatly affected by this, and many of them almost lost their acting careers. So that after 2000, the drum record broke out.

Artists such as Zhao Chuan, Su Huilun, Grasshopper Band, Splendid Duet and many other artists have terminated their contracts one after another, causing the drum record to decline day by day. It has been in losses since two thousand years ago, with an annual loss of tens of millions of dollars, and it was not until one or two years ago that the debts were paid off. .

   During this period, the star-making ability of the drum record declined greatly. After 2000, only Mayday and Liang Jingru were trained.

  In comparison, Haidie Records has JJ Lin, Adu, Mo Wenwei, Zhang Xinzhe; Warner Records has Zhang Huimei, Xiao Yaxuan, Jolin Tsai, Wu Kequn; Universal Music has Stefanie Sun, Wang Xinling, Sodagreen, Xu Huixin and so on.

  Even in the Taihe wheat field in the mainland, there are Pu Shu, Sun Nan, Zhou Xun, Li Yuchun and so on. Compared with these counterparts, drum records do not have a particularly great advantage.

  So Xiang Nan thought about it, and decided not to sign drum records for the time being.

  …

"Sister, it's a good thing to be able to join Drum Records. But I'm still young, and I really can't decide on such a big deal as signing the company." Xiang Nan pretended to be embarrassed and said, "Wait for me and My parents discussed it."

   "Okay." The sister nodded, not suspecting that Xiang Nan didn't want to sign the drum record on purpose.

   You must know that the drum record is now the overlord of the Chinese music scene, with high morals and high prestige, and it is in full swing.

   In 1995, when Leslie Cheung returned to the music scene, he signed a contract with Drum Records. At that time, the boss of the company gave him a blank check and asked him to fill in the amount at will. But Leslie Cheung only wrote two words - [Friendship].

  First-line Tianwang signed a contract with Drum because of these two words, which shows its status and reputation in the music scene at that time. Therefore, there is no singer who does not want to sign to this record company.

  Xiang Nan didn't sign, in that sister's opinion, the reason is quite good. He is still a student, so signing such a big deal should be discussed with his parents. So she didn't press anymore.

"After you discuss it with your parents, you can make a decision. After the discussion, you can come to your sister, and I promise that the company's door is always open to you." The sister smiled, "Okay, let's eat first, after eating I'll take you to the Spring Festival Gala program group to report."

   "Okay, thank you sister." Xiang Nan said with a smile.

  …

  In the next few days, that sister took Xiang Nan to rehearse the song "Meet Nine Eight" in the rehearsal room, in response to the review of the Spring Festival Gala program group.

  Xiang Nan's outstanding singing skills made that sister very satisfied.

  When the rehearsal was almost done, the elder sister brought Xiang Nan to the program group of the Spring Festival Gala.

   "Director, this is my little brother—Yuan Hua." The sister introduced with a smile, "Not only is the song well written, but also the singing skills are good. I guarantee that I won't disappoint you."

  The director glanced at Xiang Nan up and down, and nodded.

  Xiang Nanren looks quite handsome, a bit like Xiangjiang star Wu Yanzu, and a bit like Leslie Cheung in profile, in short, he is a pretty handsome boy.

   Moreover, the temperament is clean, refreshing, sunny, and full of vitality. Especially in front of a big director like him, his expression is very calm and calm, which is really not easy for a student.

   You know, the Spring Festival Gala is a nationwide live broadcast, and no mistakes are allowed. If the artist's psychological quality is too poor, mistakes will happen at any time. In that case, no matter how capable or talented they are, they will not be allowed to appear on stage.

   Therefore, Xiang Nan left a good first impression on him.

   "Let him show it later." The director nodded immediately, "If he performs well, I can give him a chance."

   "Thank you, director." The sister nodded with a smile.

   "Thank you, director." Xiang Nan also bowed.

  …

  After bidding farewell to the director, the sister took Xiang Nan around the backstage and introduced some of her friends to him, most of whom were popular stars in the mainland entertainment industry. Such as Lin Yilun, Jing Gangshan, Mao Yi, Jiang Tao, Xie Xiaodong, Cai Guoqing and so on.

   Seeing these familiar and unfamiliar faces, Xiang Nan was quite emotional for a while.

  These stars were all very popular back then and brought a lot of joy to his childhood. But in the end, they seemed to disappear suddenly, and they had not been heard from for more than ten years.

  Seeing them so young again now reminds Xiang Nan of too many childhood memories, and he can't help but sigh.

   "Sister, your younger brother is quite handsome."

   "Then sister, is this really your brother? Could it be your little boyfriend?"

   "Sister, what is your brother's background, it looks very difficult!"

  Her friends laughed and joked when they saw that sister recommended Xiang Nan everywhere, and she was working very hard.

  In the entertainment industry, there are mostly casual acquaintances, nodding acquaintances. If the relationship was average, then sister would never work so hard to help Xiang Nan to build relationships.

   You know, they are all big stars, and their face is still very valuable.

"Fuck you, stop talking nonsense, he is my younger brother." The sister scolded with a smile, "Don't look at him as young, he is a great talent, he is top-notch in songwriting and singing. He is no worse than Li Zongsheng, Xiaochong, Yao Ruolong and others .”

   "Really, don't talk nonsense, right?" Everyone refused to believe it.

   Li Zongsheng, Xiao Chong, and Yao Ruolong are the hottest music producers in the Chinese music scene today.

Li Zongsheng's "The Price of Love", "Songs of Ordinary People", "When Love Is a Past", "True Heroes", "Love Like the Tide", "I'm a Little Bird" and so on created by Li Zongsheng in recent years are all excellent Sing all over the country.

   Xiaochong's "Intimate Lover", "Love Jiangshan More Love Beauty", "Smiling Compassionately", "I Can't Put It Down", "The Heart Is Too Soft", etc. are also popular songs.

  Yao Ruolong's "The Most Romantic Thing", "Love You More Everyday", "You Get Me Drunk", "Liberation", "I Think I'm the Sea", etc., are also sensational works.

  The sister now says that Xiang Nan's talent is comparable to these three big names in the industry, which is really a bit bragging and not paying taxes.

   "Hey, brother, they look down on you." The sister looked at Xiang Nandao, "Show them something."

  Xiang Nan nodded.

  Money is the slave's hand, art is the pedestrian.

   If you want to get ahead in the entertainment industry, you have to have no real skills.

  He then borrowed a guitar, played and sang by himself, "I want to know how long a meteor can fly..."
