1993 My China Entertainment Age

Chapter 12 The contest between two great talents!

Since the conclusion of the Yanjing Asian Games in 1990, the Asian Games Village area has also completed the first qualitative change in the history of urban development - from an ordinary urban fringe area to the first large-scale high-end foreign-related residential area in Beijing.

In the past two or three years, the Asian Games Village area has not only been a representative of high-end residential areas, it was also a benchmark for housing prices in Yanjing.

In the eyes of most people in Beijing, the Asian Games Village is now a gathering place for wealthy businessmen, celebrities, cultural celebrities, and financial elites, and is a residential area for high-end people.

Singer Liu Huan was one of the first people from the literary and artistic circles to buy a house in the Asian Games Village in Beijing. Later, Mao Amin, Liu Xiaoqing and others also bought houses here.

The circle effect brought about by celebrities staying has further promoted the sustained and rapid development of the Asian Games Village.

Many film and television sports stars, cultural celebrities, financial elites, wealthy businessmen and international friends choose to live in the Asian Games Village and surrounding areas.

"Getting a cell phone, driving a car, and living in the Asian Games Village" have become the symbols of the rich in Yanjing today.

Soon, Jiang Xiaofeng and Huang Xiaomao, guided by Shen Qing, arrived at the Asian Games Village Huiyuan Apartment.

Then, Jiang Xiaofeng and Huang Xiaomao, introduced by Shen Qingfeng, met the friend he mentioned in a large apartment.

Jiang Xiaofeng took a closer look and thought, isn't this damn short and tight?

At first, Jiang Xiaofeng was not sure because he was "short, big and tight". After chatting for a while, he found out that his name was indeed Gao Xiaosong.

When they met Gao Xiaosong for the first time, Jiang Xiaofeng's impression was: big head, big face, long hair, casual and loud voice.

At this time, although Gao Xiaosong had not yet become famous, he had already made his first pot of gold in life.

In fact, as early as two years ago, Gao Xiaosong, who had just dropped out of Tsinghua University, also experienced a period of depression.

In order to enter the society later, Gao Xiaosong also entered the directing department of Beijing Film Academy to study in the postgraduate preparatory class. However, he searched for a long time and could not find his name on the list.

So, he went to the Huaguo Asian Television Art Center to work as a director.

However, Gao Xiaosong, who sensed a business opportunity, quickly opened an advertising company with his friend at the Huiyuan Apartment in the Asian Games Village.

Gao Xiaosong's financial fortune was particularly good. It didn't take long for him to receive his first commercial opportunity and earn 8,000 yuan. His producer at the time was Ji Jie, who later became the female lead in "Serious Case Group Six".

Immediately afterwards, they took another order for wine, and Gao Xiaosong casually made up a slogan: "If you want to live ninety-nine, drink wine often." The boss was very happy when he heard it and gave him sixteen thousand.

You know, the monthly salary of a civil servant these days is only more than 100 yuan, but he earned 16,000 yuan from a casual advertising slogan, which is 100 times the monthly salary of a civil servant.

At this time, Gao Xiaosong was only 22 years old. In the cabinet in his office, there were several plastic bags filled with cash.

Not only did he buy himself a Lincoln car, he also purchased a mobile phone worth 30,000 yuan, with a Chinese-display BP machine mounted on it, and a special call sign "6".

In addition, the apartment Gao Xiaosong lives in now has five bedrooms and four living rooms. There are four landline phones installed. He also looks for beautiful actresses everywhere in the name of shooting commercials every day. He lives like a suddenly rich man and feels extremely happy.

.

However, what has never changed in Gao Xiaosong's heart is his love for music, which is engraved in his body and blood.

After Huang Xiaomao, Shen Qing, and Jiang Xiaofeng arrived, Gao Xiaosong went shirtless, picked up his guitar, drank beer, and talked about the music they both loved.

Encouraged by Huang Xiaomao and the others, Gao Xiaosong also held the guitar and played and sang the song "My Deskmate You" composed by himself:

"Tomorrow will you remember

The diary you wrote yesterday

Will you still miss me tomorrow?

You used to cry the most

The teachers have forgotten

You who can’t guess the problem

I also look through photos accidentally

…”

After listening to Gao Xiaosong singing for a while, Jiang Xiaofeng felt a little disappointed.

In Jiang Xiaofeng's view, Gao Xiaosong's creative ability is very good, but his singing ability is really not good. It is not even a bit worse than "You at the Same Desk" sung by Lao Lang. Although this song is Gao Xiaosong's original work, no one can deny it. This fact.

After singing the song "You at the Same Desk", Huang Xiaomao and Shen Qing both praised Gao Xiaosong for writing and singing well. Only Jiang Xiaofeng praised him for writing the song well.

At this time, Gao Xiaosong was in a stage of extreme expansion. Shen Qing had recommended Jiang Xiaofeng to him before and had also heard of his "Drum Tower", so he thought it was just okay and not amazing.

Since ancient times, literati have looked down upon each other, and so have musicians. In Gao Xiaosong's opinion, the song "Drum Tower" is not bad, but not good enough for him to appreciate.

Seeing that Jiang Xiaofeng was not too interested in his singing, Gao Xiaosong was slightly dissatisfied, so he put down his guitar, took a sip of beer, and asked, "Where are you from, buddy?"

Jiang Xiaofeng felt that it was too troublesome to say that he was from the Shaolin Temple and had to explain this and that, so he told him: "My hometown is Guangfu Province."

Gao Xiaosong nodded, and then asked: "Where did you go to university?"

Jiang Xiaofeng said calmly: "I haven't gone to college."

In fact, Jiang Xiaofeng not only never went to college, but also didn't even go to middle school. He only went to elementary school and didn't even graduate from elementary school.

Later, when he went to the Shaolin Temple, Jiang Xiaofeng learned a lot of middle school knowledge and could barely be considered a middle school student.

Although Gao Xiaosong has dropped out of Tsinghua University, he still considers himself a student of Tsinghua University and feels superior to everyone. This is an innate sense of superiority that he has had since he was a child.

Gao Xiaosong felt that since Jiang Xiaofeng could write a work like "Drum Tower", even if he was not a college student, he should at least be a high school student, so he didn't pursue the question any further.

However, Gao Xiaosong appeared to be gentle and did not verbally insult Jiang Xiaofeng, but he was still very contemptuous in his heart.

Gao Xiaosong said slowly: "Brother, if a high school student like you can write a work like "Drum Tower", you are considered capable."

Jiang Xiaofeng heard Gao Xiaosong's words of disdain for him, and was not polite to him. He immediately replied: "Who are you looking down on? Essentially, aren't you also a high school student? Do you have a college diploma?"

Gao Xiaosong didn't expect Jiang Xiaofeng to still have a bad temper, and the anger in his heart soared. For a moment, he couldn't refute it, because this was indeed the case, and what Jiang Xiaofeng said was right.

Seeing that the atmosphere was tense, Huang Xiaomao and Shen Qing hurriedly came out to smooth things over. Gao Xiaosong knew he was in the wrong and didn't make a fuss about it. The unpleasantness was definitely unpleasant, but on the surface it was considered a matter of course.

Huang Xiaomao took advantage of the situation and said to Jiang Xiaofeng: "Xiaofeng, didn't you just write a new song? Can you sing it for all of us?"

Shen Qing also echoed: "Yes, Xiaofeng, you wrote a new song, why didn't you tell me earlier and sing a section for us quickly? I'm still looking forward to it!"

Gao Xiaosong looked at the broken guitar that Jiang Xiaofeng brought and said perfunctorily: "I've already sung, so you can play Jinkou!"

Jiang Xiaofeng didn't feel shy and immediately replied: "Okay, then I will show off my shame and sing a new song I just wrote for everyone - "Those Flowers"."

After brewing for a moment, Jiang Xiaofeng hugged the guitar and began to strum the strings.

As the melody sounded, Jiang Xiaofeng also began to sing in a low voice:

"That laugh reminds me of

my flowers

in every corner of my life

Open it quietly for me

I thought I would forever

stay by her side

Today we have left

In the vast sea of ​​people

…”

Although Jiang Xiaofeng does not have a strong singing voice and has not received professional singing training, Jiang Xiaofeng's deep voice, combined with the lyrics and melody of the song "Those Flowers", instantly stunned the three people present.

Especially Gao Xiaosong, who really likes this kind of song that remembers youth. This time he listened to Jiang Xiaofeng's singing at close range. Without any precautions, he was deeply moved by the song "Those Flowers" sung by Jiang Xiaofeng.

"Some stories haven't been told yet.

Then forget it

Those feelings are in the years

It’s hard to tell the truth from the false

Now it's overgrown with grass

no more flowers

Fortunately, I once had your spring and autumn, winter and summer

Are they all old?

where are they

That's how we are

Everyone runs to the end of the world

…”

Listening to Jiang Xiaofeng singing this point, Huang Xiaomao and Shen Qing felt similar to Gao Xiaosong. In addition to being deeply touched in their hearts, they also found this song very sad and beautiful.
