1993 My China Entertainment Age

Chapter 58 The record is selling like hotcakes and comes from the favor of Hong Kong’s gold medal manager!

Although the "Rock Chinese Music Power" concert suffered a loss, Zhang Peiren saw a new development direction of Chinese rock at this concert.

Zhang Peiren wrote in the "Postscript of the Xiangjiang Performance": "The venue was filled with media from all over the world and nearly 10,000 Xiangjiang audiences. Before this, they had rarely had the opportunity to witness the new music style from Yanjing..."

"Under circumstances that no one could have predicted, the three-and-a-half-hour concert was plunged into an incredible state almost the entire time. The audience danced and roared with their hands and throats, even the media and security guards who were accustomed to performance scenes

The staff also fell into excitement. In Xiangjiang, there has been almost no concert as crazy as this in the past few years..."

This is an on-the-spot testimony of the first peak of Chinese rock music after Cui Jian.

This concert not only made the "Magic Rock Four" famous on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, but also brought Jiang Xiaofeng a lot of attention in Hong Kong. With the original album "Jiang Xiaofeng", he successfully opened up the Hong Kong record market.

The first 10,000 records printed by Kingstone Records were sold out in the market a few days after the Hung Hom concert of the "Rock Chinese Music Force". Seeing the good market, Chen Jiantian asked the company to urgently print another record.

Thousands of sheets.

December 22.

Today is the winter solstice.

In the past, the old Yanjing people had a saying of "Winter Solstice Wonton and Summer Solstice Noodles", but in fact no one has stipulated what should be eaten on the Winter Solstice to be considered authentic. Generally, it is dumplings, dumplings, and mutton.

Since Jiang Xiaofeng was from Guangfu, Taohong not only made dumplings and cooked mutton for him, but also specially made some glutinous rice balls for him.

Tangyuan can be either sweet or salty. Jiang Xiaofeng likes salty ones. Taohong followed Jiang Xiaofeng's taste and first made a pot of duck soup, then put the prepared glutinous rice balls in and cooked them, and finally picked them up.

Seeing that Jiang Xiaofeng was still not satisfied with the meal, Taohong asked expectantly: "Is it delicious?"

Although the glutinous rice balls are salty, because of the duck soup as the soup base, they taste particularly fresh and sweet.

Jiang Xiaofeng nodded: "It's delicious, it tastes like when I was a kid."

"At that time, my parents were still there, but I wasn't..."

Halfway through the words, Jiang Xiaofeng swallowed them back, tears welling up in his eyes.

In fact, Jiang Xiaofeng doesn't really like to mention the past. This is something he has been avoiding and doesn't want to mention, because most of these pasts are painful.

When Taohong saw this, she didn't say anything, she just silently reached out her hand and wiped the tears from his eyes.

Jiang Xiaofeng forced a smile, held her hand, and said, "It's okay, I'm just a little sad. I think the glutinous rice balls you cooked have the taste of my mother."

Taohong asked in disbelief: "Does it really taste like mom? Then I want to have a taste."

Jiang Xiaofeng replied: "Well, really, this is the taste of glutinous rice balls in my memory."

Taohong scooped a bowl with a spoon and tried the taste. It was indeed quite appetizing, not as cloying as sweet glutinous rice balls.

After eating and drinking, Jiang Xiaofeng was pulled by Taohong to the Shichahai Ice Rink, which was crowded with people.

As early as the 1950s and 1960s, the ice on Shichahai and Beihai was very popular.

Although this place is not a place of historical interest, it carries the beautiful childhood memories of generations of people in Yanjing.

As in previous years, the Shichahai Ice Rink is usually open at this time and ends around February.

Jiang Xiaofeng stood on the ice of Shichahai with his skates on his feet. The biting cold wind passed over his body and he couldn't help but shiver.

Leaning next to the railing, Jiang Xiaofeng hugged Taohong and asked with concern: "Are you cold? Put your hand in my arms and I will warm you up."

Seeing Jiang Xiaofeng shivering from the cold and pretending to be a big man in front of her, Taohong secretly felt funny but also warm.

Taohong hugged him, nestled her cheek against his chest, and said angrily: "Stop being a hero, you should take care of yourself."

After holding Wen Nuan like this for a while, Jiang Xiaofeng and Tao Hong let go of each other and started skating on the ice.

After sliding around for a few times, I felt a lot warmer.

In the evening.

After leaving the Shichahai skating rink, Taohong took Jiang Xiaofeng and went to the Chai's Flavor Restaurant in the alley south of Ganjiakou Shopping Mall to the west, close to the east wall of the Ganjiakou Police Station.

Since its opening in 1888, this Chai's Flavor Restaurant has a history of 105 years.

Their pot of soup is said to have never been turned off since 1920.

However, after knowing so many Yanjing people, Jiang Xiaofeng also roughly knows the speaking style of some Yanjing people. Most of what they say is artistically processed and should not be taken too seriously.

The first time Taohong came to Chai's Flavor Restaurant was when she was in nursery school in elementary school. At that time, the store was still a small storefront on the street curb, specializing in soy sauce beef and beef noodles.

Although the store is very shabby, when it’s time for dinner, the dozens of broken tables are all filled with people.

After playing at the Shichahai Ice Rink for an afternoon, Jiang Xiaofeng and Taohong were already hungry. In addition, the beef noodles in this restaurant really tasted refreshing and authentic. Jiang Xiaofeng even ate three large bowls of beef noodles at once, and they felt like eating them.

satisfy.

January 1, 1995, early morning.

Houzhai Hutong, Jiangfu.

Today was the Gregorian New Year, and it was snowing heavily outside. Jiang Xiaofeng didn't go anywhere, so she and Taohong stayed at home watching TV.

Because he thought that after the Spring Festival, he would go to Xiangjiang to develop, Jiang Xiaofeng also tried his best to spend as much time as possible to eat, drink and have fun with Taohong.

"Ring ring ring..."

Just then, the phone rang.

Jiang Xiaofeng reluctantly got up from the sofa and picked up the phone.

On the other end of the phone, a woman's sweet voice came: "Hello, are you Jiang Xiaofeng?"

Jiang Xiaofeng replied: "I am, you are?"

The woman on the other end of the phone smiled and said: "I'm Wang Fei, we've met before, do you still have any impressions?

Jiang Xiaofeng smiled and replied: "It turns out to be Sister Fei. You are so famous, I must know you."

Wang Fei then asked: "Is it convenient for you to talk on the phone now?"

"It's convenient. If you have anything to say, just say it and I'll listen."

"Someone asked me to ask you, are you interested in developing in Xiangjiang?"

Jiang Xiaofeng asked curiously: "Can you tell me who you are asking for?"

Wang Fei didn't hide anything from Jiang Xiaofeng and told him the truth: "My manager, Sister Jia Ying."

Jiang Xiaofeng thought in his mind that Wang Fei's agent should be very powerful and powerful, otherwise Wang Fei would not be able to do so well in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

Jiang Xiaofeng originally planned to go to Xiangjiang for development. If he could sign with Wang Fei in the same economic company, it might not be a bad choice.

"Sister Jiaying asked me to tell you that if you are interested in developing in Xiangjiang, she will go to Yanjing with me next week to talk to you face to face."

"Okay, no problem, that's settled."

"..."

It is worth mentioning that so far, as a celebrity manager, Chen Jiaying has only signed two singers, one is the late Hong Kong singer Chen Baiqiang, and the other is the current Wang Fei.

One of the reasons why Chen Jiaying took a fancy to Jiang Xiaofeng was that she admired Jiang Xiaofeng's performance. To put it bluntly, Jiang Xiaofeng's performance in the Hung Hom concert really conquered her.

In addition, Jiang Xiaofeng is very eye-catching regardless of his appearance and temperament. The key is that he can also compose. This alone makes him better than many Xiangjiang singers.

Then there is Jiang Xiaofeng's album "Jiang Xiaofeng", which is selling well in Xiangjiang, with sales of more than 20,000 copies, and has a certain fan base. Even if he goes to Xiangjiang to develop now, he is not considered a pure newcomer.

Judging from the current situation, it is only a matter of time before the sales of Jiang Xiaofeng's album "Jiang Xiaofeng" exceed 25,000.

In addition, the Hong Kong IFPI standard is that 25,000 counts as a gold record, 50,000 counts as a platinum record, 100,000 counts as a double platinum record, 150,000 counts as a triple platinum record, and so on.

In other words, if nothing unexpected happens, the sales volume of Jiang Xiaofeng's album "Jiang Xiaofeng" will exceed 25,000, becoming a veritable gold album.

After talking to Wang Fei on the phone, Jiang Xiaofeng hung up the phone and returned to the sofa.

Taohong asked casually: "Who is it?"

Jiang Xiaofeng replied: "Wang Fei."

Taohong asked with great interest: "Wang Fei? Which Wang Fei? The Wang Fei who sings?"

Jiang Xiaofeng nodded: "Yes, that's her."

Hearing Jiang Xiaofeng's answer, Taohong had a bad feeling in her heart and hurriedly asked Jiang Xiaofeng: "Why is she looking for you?"

Jiang Xiaofeng said calmly: "She said her agent wanted to talk to me."

"What to talk about?"

"I don't know yet. Maybe they want me to go to Xiangjiang for development."

Taohong asked: "Then do you want to go?"

Jiang Xiaofeng thought for a while and said, "If the contract is negotiated, I should go."

Taohong asked uneasily: "Do we have to go to Xiangjiang?"

Jiang Xiaofeng didn't want to keep hiding it from Taohong, so he chose to tell her the truth: "Well, I must go, I don't want to miss this opportunity!"

When she thought that Jiang Xiaofeng would be separated from her when she went to Xiangjiang, Taohong obviously couldn't accept it. She curled her lips and asked, "What should I do if you go to Xiangjiang?"

Jiang Xiaofeng said disapprovingly: "We are just going to Xiangjiang, not Mars. We can meet each other as well. Look at Wang Fei and Dou Wei, aren't they just one in Yanjing and one in Xiangjiang? Aren't they fine too."

Taohong hugged Jiang Xiaofeng tightly and said aggrievedly: "I don't want you to go, I don't want to leave you."

Jiang Xiaofeng smiled and reassured: "Don't worry, I will come back. It's not like I won't come back."

Taohong expressed her worries: "I'm not worried. There are so many beautiful female stars in Xiangjiang. I'm afraid you won't be able to withstand the temptation."
