Chapter 561: A famous teacher

Making the right choice is often more important than your own efforts!

——Elon Musk, Director of the National Development and Reform Commission of the United States

Fei Xiang was still young and had never heard this sentence. He went to Singapore with full of worries. There was an event there to participate in. Chen Qi started to make arrangements.

According to the actual situation, if he wants any song, he can just get it. There is no copyright protection in mainland China.

But first, he wanted to say hello to the Taiwanese music scene. Second, "Clouds in Hometown" and "365 Miles" have been created, and he couldn't explain how he knew about it.

What's more, he also wants more songs for Li Lingyu, Fei Xiang, and Zhang Mingmin to release albums.

At this stage, the environment on both sides of the Taiwan Strait is very similar, both conservative and open. Take music as an example, many "banned songs" can be published, but cannot be sung in public. For example, Li Guyi's "Nostalgia" was still sold on tape after it was banned.

Being on TV and selling tapes are two different things. "Dong dong dong!"

"Please come in!"

Xiao Mo walked in carrying a shelf and a small blackboard, poked it on the ground, arranged the small blackboard, and put a row of chalk on it, and asked doubtfully: "What do you want the blackboard for?" "I'm planning!"

"Can't you write on paper?"

"Work should have a sense of ritual. I don't need a computer, so why not use a blackboard? Chen Qi held the information in one hand and chalk in the other and wrote a few lines of words.

Zongyi Records: Qi Qin, "Meet Her Again"; Gao Lingfeng, "A Fire in Winter", "Burn! Firebird"; Shen Yan, "A String of Hearts", "Light Sorrow", "Pretty Like a Colorful Butterfly"

Fly Feifei".

Tony Records: Fei Yuqing, "One Cut Plum". Rolling Stone: Luo Dayou, Qi Yu, Pan Yueyun... "What does this mean?" Xiao Mo scratched his head.

"They are all my favorite songs. We can't always act barbarically. We must be peaceful and friendly. We must establish a bridge of friendship with Taiwan's music scene and let them take the initiative to send songs over... Don't you always buy Mandarin albums? How many songs can you sing?

indivual?"

"Well.."

Xiao Mo looked at it and clicked "See her again".

You may not know the title of the song, but you will understand it as soon as you sing it: "Young friends are together, they are happier than anything else, she is yo-yoing, she is yo-yoing me, my heart is hey hey hey... This style can easily be mistaken for mainland China

The folk song is actually a Taiwanese song, originally sung by Qi Qin, the creator is Gu Yue, Gu Yue is a pen name, and his real name is Zuo Hongyuan.

"You have a good taste. Is this song suitable for Li Lingyu?"

Xiao Mo imagined for a while, Li Lingyu sang "Liu Liu She Yo" sweetly, and the style of the painting really matched it. Then he lit "A Fire" and said: "I have heard this too, you want to sing it to Fei Xiang

?”

"Not necessarily, we'll talk about it later."

"Oh, this Zongyi record is great, all of them are good songs."

"Yeah, I also think their songs are very suitable for singing in mainland China."

Chen Qi drew a circle on the name and said: "Zongyi Records was established in 1981. Gao Lingfeng is a shareholder and the top singer. It includes Qi Qin, Yang Lin, Shen Yan, Huang Zhongkun and so on.

I know a thing or two about Gao Lingfeng, he is an old gangster and I can communicate with him." Fei Xiang and the article are both from EMI Taiwan.

Chen Qi could ask for songs through Hong Kong's EMI, but Taiwan would definitely not give them to them. Why would they give them to you when they are just making albums? So he didn't bother and didn't directly find fault with EMI. After all, he still wanted to cooperate.

He killed the chicken to scare the monkey...

In all wars, it is important to have a good reputation. Chen Qi followed the ancient etiquette.

He first went to find someone, Ms. Zhu Benyan, the boss of Hong Kong's New Lisheng Records. Zhu Benyan was a Hong Kong businessman, but had close ties with the mainland. Historically, it was she who persuaded Fei Xiang to come to the mainland for development.

There are many such small businessmen in Hong Kong, who appear to be doing business, but are actually doing many things.

Zhu Benyan warmly entertained Chen Qi. He got straight to the point: "I cannot communicate directly with Taiwan. I would like to ask you to send a message." "To whom should I send the message?"

"Zongyi Records, I want to cover a dozen of their songs and talk about copyright issues."

Zhu Benyan looked weird. She asked for the copyright for the mainland cover, but she didn't ask any more questions. She just said, "Okay, let me contact you." In mainland China, it's called acupuncture, and in Taiwan, it's called a show.

In the 1980s, show culture was prevalent in Taiwan. The most valuable person was not Teresa Teng or Liu Wenzheng, but a guy named Gao Lingfeng.

At that time, everyone was singing quietly on the stage. Only he was wearing colorful costumes and sunglasses, jumping up and down. The song was also very dynamic and very popular. He was banned by the Information Bureau for being "indecent".

.

The ban was lifted in 1981, and his fame became even higher. His masterpieces include "A Fire in Winter" and "Burn, Firebird". He also chased Teresa Teng.

Last year, Taipei's BMW Cabaret invited him to perform for a sky-high price of NT$240,000 a day. However, after collecting the money, he ran away before singing for the full number of days. Behind the BMW Cabaret was the eldest brother of the Bamboo Union Gang, who banned him in Taipei.

Gao Lingfeng had no choice but to run to Kaohsiung, but he repeated his old tricks and took the money and stopped working.

The eldest brother in Kaohsiung was obviously more violent than the one in Taipei. He sent someone to shoot him and shot him through the thigh. Fortunately, he survived. After that, he bought a gun to protect himself and was investigated again. He was imprisoned for three months, which shocked the whole Taiwan.

In the 1990s, he opened a nightclub and was raided by Chen Shui-bian. Chen Shui-bian was the mayor of Taipei at the time, and he gained political achievements by cracking down on pornography and illegal activities. In short, he was a social man, an old gangster with both virtue and talent.

Taipei, morning.

Gao Lingfeng had just returned from a private casino and lost 3 million in a night of gambling without changing his expression. No matter how much news he made in society, he could not stay popular. He could earn back this little money in two months.

Housing in Taiwan is much better than in Hong Kong.

He returned to his large house of more than 100 square meters. Just as he was about to catch up on his sleep, he was disturbed by a phone call. It was from someone from the company: "Brother Gao, there is a company in Hong Kong who wants to cover more than a dozen of our songs!"

"Then let's talk. Why are you calling me? It's your first day at work?" "No, the buyer is Dongfang Company, from mainland China!"

"mainland?"

Although Gao Lingfeng was confused, he was shocked after hearing this: "Tell me carefully, what's going on?"

The other party said it again, and he understood clearly. Dongfang Company, which has a mainland background, entrusted a Hong Kong company to deliver a message and wanted to talk about the cover song. "Are you stupid? It's bullshit. Say no to it! Say no to it!"

"Refuse directly?"

"Otherwise? You want to set up two tables?"

After hanging up the phone, Gao Lingfeng's heart beat inexplicably. It was no less than when he was shot. He had heard a little bit about Dongfang Company. He didn't know what it was exactly. He just refused if he felt like it. What else could he do?

"Sorry, I couldn't help."

In Hong Kong, Zhu Benyan conveyed the meaning of Zongyi Records and said: "Mr. Chen, if your cover is released in Hong Kong, it does require copyright. If it is released in mainland China, uh, you should be familiar with the environment than me."

"I want to publish it in both places. There is no copyright protection in the mainland, but there is in Hong Kong. Since I work in Hong Kong, I can't be said that I don't understand the law. I'll think of a way." Chen Qi sighed helplessly and left here.
