Rebirth of Siheyuan starts in the 1980s

"Five-star red flag, you are my pride

Five-star red flag, I'm proud of you

Cheers for you, I bless you

Your name is more important than my life

…”

When the last note slowly ended, Cao Zhiqiang put down his guitar and looked out the large glass window of the recording studio.

When he saw the sound engineer outside the window raising a thumbs up, Cao Zhiqiang exhaled, put down the guitar in his arms, and walked out of the recording studio.

After leaving the recording studio, Cao Zhiqiang came to the sound engineer and asked the middle-aged male sound engineer wearing glasses: "How's it going, Mr. Chen? Is it okay this time?"

"Very good, very good." The bespectacled man named Chen Gong smiled and nodded, "This time it's very good. Once done, there are no problems. You can record the record directly."

"That's good." Cao Zhiqiang smiled and nodded.

That Chen Gong sighed: "Manager Cao, to be honest, I have recorded records for many people, and I am considered a veteran in this field, but there are very few people who can sing as well as you.

Especially the song "Flowing Red Flag" makes me feel emotional when I listen to it, and I can't help but feel warm all over.

I bet that if this song is released, it will definitely become popular all over the country!"

After Chen Gong said this, a young man in his twenties next to him smiled and said: "Chen Gong, you said the same thing yesterday when we were recording "Blood-stained Style"."

"Go, go, go!" Chen Gong laughed and scolded the young man next to him, "I said so yesterday, but this just shows that Manager Cao is a talent. He can sing any song and have the quality to become a hit. How dare you say that yesterday?

Is the song bad?”

"Okay, why isn't it good?" the young man said with a smile, "but I feel that today's waving red flag is better and more energetic. Although yesterday's blood-stained song was good, it always felt a bit heavy."

"It's just heavy!" Chen Gong adjusted his glasses.

"Yesterday's song was obviously sung to soldiers, and it had a mournful sound to it.

But this is the subtlety of that song, do you understand that a sad soldier must win?

If we say that the blood-stained style of yesterday's song is a belief that the soldiers will win, it is a deep love for the country.

So today's red flag is flying, which is a sense of pride and pride for the country.

One is a love so deep that you can give your own life.

One is love that is high-spirited and can be proud of itself.

The styles are different, but they serve the same purpose. They all share a deep patriotic feeling.

As for you young people, you may prefer the kind of high-spirited and waving red flags that you can roar to your heart's content.

But when you get older, you will prefer the deeper blood-stained style.

I said this, Xiao Wang, do you understand?"

The young man named Xiao Wang nodded thoughtfully: "I seem to understand a little bit."

"What does it mean to be a little bit?" Chen Gong curled his lips, "If you understand, you understand. If you don't understand, you don't understand. Don't pretend to understand. Listen to it a few more times and think more. One day you will understand."

"Yes, Chen Gong." The little Wang nodded seriously, "I will study it carefully and understand it when I go back."

"This is what it should be!" Chen Gong also nodded seriously, "Be sure to listen more and then write down your experience. This will be good for you young people."

"Chen Gong, when I left home, you blew the horn with affection, what do you understand by these two words?"

"Well, Xiao Wang, you have asked the right person. In fact, for these two sentences, you not only have to look at the meaning of the sentence itself, but also the context, and the history of our party. Speaking of that year..."

Listening to these two people suddenly talking about the history of the founding of the party and the country, Cao Zhiqiang was speechless for a while.

I just came to record a song, but why did it suddenly escalate to ideological politics and historical education?

I, the main creative and lead singer, am still here.

However, seeing that the two people were talking happily, Cao Zhiqiang was very discerning and did not interrupt. Instead, he walked to the side and sat down, drinking water to moisten his throat, and quietly waiting for the two sound recordists to end the debate.

Well, it is already the end of April, and in three days, it will be Labor Day.

After taking Qiao Simei back to the capital and turning Qiao Simei into a Beijing native, Cao Zhiqiang finally had something to worry about.

After that, he focused mainly on his career.

Among them, the "Jiang Hu Xing" set is the least to worry about, because you only need to continue to find ways to increase the circulation.

With its excellent content and marketing methods of selling sheep over dogs, this book of poems comes with a free martial arts novel. In the current period of martial arts ban, it is still very sharp, still sweeping, and still able to hit people everywhere

Where is the fire?

Of course, the relevant departments have indeed issued an order that this kind of practice of selling dog meat at the expense of sheep is not allowed to occur again in the future, and the relevant rules and regulations have also been modified.

However, that can only restrain latecomers. For the time being, it is better to turn a blind eye to "Jiang Hu Xing", which was released before the rules and regulations.

The main reason for this is that Cao Zhiqiang's background is strong enough. After all, there is Uncle Wang with the prefix Xuan behind him.

There is a great master looming behind Cao Zhiqiang. Who would dare to get into trouble as a leader?

Besides, Hongguang Publishing House and the Hongguang Machinery Factory behind it are now counting on this "Journey to Jianghu" to generate income.

Hongguang Machinery Factory, in particular, hopes to rely on the profits from this book to turn around and avoid being split up.

Therefore, when the relevant departments wanted to ban "Jianghu Xing", whether it was Factory Director Li or Secretary Dong, they spontaneously tried their best to prevent the relevant departments from banning "Jianghu Xing".

According to Director Li, "Journey to the Rivers and Lakes" is clearly a collection of poems. As for the "Shattered Void", it is just an essay by the poet Qiangzi, and it is a gift to give back to readers and is not considered a commodity.

In this case, it’s the same way as shopping malls to hold sales promotions, buying clothes and giving away balloons. How can you put the cart before the horse and say you’re selling martial arts novels?

As for canceling the gift, that is even more impossible.

Because this is unfair to latecomers.

After all, previous readers were given free gifts when they bought this poetry collection, but later readers were not given free gifts. How could this be possible?

If you think there is a problem, why haven't you raised it before?

Now that this collection of poems has become popular, and there are problems, this is clearly jealousy of the talent of Comrade Cao Zhiqiang, our factory worker, and it is naked jealousy and frame-up!

In short, with the full operation of Director Li and Secretary Dong, and of course the acquiescence of Uncle Xu and Uncle Wang, at least the "Journey to the Rivers", which is selling sheep over dogs, can be put to rest and can continue to be a collection of poems.

Continue to sell openly and honestly.

However, if you want to do this again in the future, the relevant departments will not agree.

Although this made Director Li and others a little regretful, since Cao Zhiqiang said it was no problem, of course they had no problem either.

In fact, after Cao Zhiqiang returned to the capital, he didn't care much about the publishing issue of "Journey to the Rivers and Lakes". Instead, he ran various connections and registered a record company without stopping, named "Huaxia Audio and Video Co., Ltd."

It is worth noting that Huaxia Audio and Video Co., Ltd. is not a pure state-owned company, but a joint-stock company with a state-owned nature.

Because this company has a total of two shareholders.

Among them, Hongguang Machinery Factory invested in land, office buildings and other fixed assets at a discount of RMB 510,000, occupying 51% of the shares, while Cao Zhiqiang personally invested RMB 490,000, occupying 49%.

of shares.

After the establishment of this company, because Hongguang Machinery Factory is a state-owned enterprise and holds an absolute majority of 51% of the shares, this company can be said to be a proper state-owned enterprise holding company.

But because there are individuals investing in the shares, it has the nature of a joint-stock company.

The problem is that before this, there had never been a joint-stock company in China that was a joint venture between a state-owned enterprise and an individual.

So accidentally, this company became the first joint-stock limited company since the reform and opening up.

Of course, this was Cao Zhiqiang's special way of finding Uncle Xu, and it was specially approved by the State Council.

That is to say, thanks to the approval of the boss in the capital, the speed of special approval is so fast.

Of course, this is not entirely a special case. In fact, there were relevant laws and regulations as early as 1980, to be exact.

As early as 1980, the country issued an "Interim Provisions on Promoting Horizontal Economic Alliances."

In this regulation, it is clearly stated that enterprises must take the road of alliance, that is, organizing various forms of economic alliances, including the introduction of foreign capital and domestic private capital.

At the same time, this kind of joint enterprise, or joint-stock enterprise, is not restricted by industry, region, ownership, affiliation, etc., and requires that the organization cannot be forced by administrative orders, but must adhere to the principle of voluntariness.

In other words, clear regulations were put forward three years ago to allow private investors to invest in state-owned and collective enterprises, but there is still a voluntary principle.

However, in 1980, there were very few private individuals with money, and even self-employed individuals were just beginning to show their talents and were not qualified to invest in state-owned enterprises or collective enterprises.

In the history of Cao Zhiqiang's previous life, there have always been two theories about the country's first truly joint-stock enterprise with private capital as a stake.

The first statement is Shenzhen Baoan County United Investment Company, which was established in July 1983.

The second statement is that Tianqiao Department Store Co., Ltd. was established on July 25, 1984.

However, in this time and space, the name of the first joint-stock enterprise in China fell on Huaxia Audio and Video Co., Ltd.

In other words, Cao Zhiqiang accidentally got another first and made history again.

As for the Huaxia Audio and Video Co., Ltd., its legal representative is Cao Zhiqiang himself, and its main business is quite extensive.

Not only the production and distribution of records, but also the production and distribution of radio and television programs, film production, production and distribution of various video advertisements, performance and brokerage business, sales of electronic products, audio and video equipment and their spare parts, and so on.

Anyway, as long as it is related to or related to audio and video production and distribution, all businesses that can be regulated will be regulated.

At first glance, Huaxia Audio and Video Co., Ltd. looks very similar to a Chinese record company.

However, at this time, Chinese record companies were still purely state-owned enterprises and not considered joint-stock enterprises.

In fact, at the beginning, Cao Zhiqiang wanted Hongguang Publishing House to be the top shareholder of the country.

However, maybe because he had tasted the benefits of Hongguang Publishing House's previous release of "Jiang Hu Xing", this time Director Li did not agree to do anything like this, and wanted Hongguang Machinery Factory to die personally.

In other words, in Director Li's view, it would not be good for the record company that Cao Zhiqiang is currently focusing on to be placed under the name of Hongguang Publishing House. The specifications are too low, and the relationship with Hongguang Machinery Factory is too far away. It is easy to

Something happened.

On the contrary, by using the fixed assets of Hongguang Machinery Factory as shares and Cao Zhiqiang himself to establish a joint-stock company in a public-private partnership, Hongguang Machinery Factory and Cao Zhiqiang himself can be deeply bound.

You must know that Hongguang Machinery Factory cannot do without Cao Zhiqiang, and it is Cao Zhiqiang who needs help, not Cao Zhiqiang who needs Hongguang Machinery Factory.

Because Director Li knew that Cao Zhiqiang was already a millionaire and had no shortage of money.

Coupled with his title as a cutting-edge poet and his background as a big leader, even if he leaves Hongguang Machinery Factory, he can prosper elsewhere, and there will definitely be many units vying for him.

What does Hongguang Machinery Factory have? What can make the great master Cao Zhiqiang stay?

Not at all!

Therefore, Factory Director Li had just won the big cake of being the next factory director to fool Cao Zhiqiang.

Well, it's not a lie. Director Li really sincerely wants to hand over the factory to Cao Zhiqiang.

Because he feels that only in this way can Cao Zhiqiang sincerely do a good job in the factory, lead the whole factory out of the predicament, and avoid the fate of being split up.

However, this is just the personal idea of ​​Factory Director Li and Secretary Dong. Whether it will work or not is hard to say.

After all, Hongguang Machinery Factory is a large state-owned enterprise directly under the Ministry of Metallurgy. The appointment of the factory director cannot be decided by just one or two people, but must be agreed by the organization.

But no matter what, the attitude must be corrected, and when Director Li was still in office, he really wanted to fully support Cao Zhiqiang, let Cao Zhiqiang see his sincerity and attitude, and then use these to hold Cao Zhiqiang back and make him not want to

Walk.

But these are not enough, and Director Li is still a little worried. He is worried that Cao Zhiqiang does not like Hongguang Machinery Factory and wants to go out to work alone. After all, he has the strength.

Then, he found out that Cao Zhiqiang was going to set up a joint-stock record company, and Director Li saw the opportunity.

During this period, the state had not yet agreed to the establishment of private enterprises, so if you wanted to run a business properly, you could only set up a state-owned enterprise or a collective enterprise.

Therefore, Cao Zhiqiang's original intention was to use the state-owned Hongguang Publishing House that he controlled as the major shareholder, and himself as the second shareholder, to create a public-private partnership limited company.

This itself is in line with relevant national regulations. After all, this regulation was issued in 1980.

After Director Li found out about this, he decisively cut off the rumors and said that Hongguang Publishing House had a low status and was easily bullied, or that their Hongguang Machinery Factory's signboard was bigger and brighter.

Moreover, what does Hongguang Publishing House have? Doesn’t Cao Zhiqiang have to pay for it himself?

But Hongguang Machinery Factory is different.

Although Hongguang Machinery Factory has little money, it has a large amount of fixed assets.

It has everything from a land factory to a grand theater.

Therefore, by jointly establishing a company with Hongguang Machinery Factory, Cao Zhiqiang can spend a lot less money and get a stronger brand name.

After all, this is an industry that Hongguang Machinery Factory has personally invested in, and it is undoubtedly a son-owned company.

Cao Zhiqiang thought so too.

As far as signboards are concerned, the signboard of Hongguang Machinery Factory is indeed bigger.

Moreover, Director Li takes such good care of himself that there is no reason not to give others some benefits.

Anyway, the main purpose of setting up a record company is to give yourself a platform to make money by making music. You set the rules yourself, so it doesn’t matter who the major shareholder is?

After all, the most critical asset here is Cao Zhiqiang himself. If there is a disagreement in the future, the worst case scenario is that he will quit the company and start a new business.

Whether you are making music or videos, content is king. What is not a company is just a platform.

Of course we can’t do it without a platform, but we still can’t do it without a platform without good content.

As a result, Cao Zhiqiang agreed to Director Li's suggestion and cooperated with Hongguang Machinery Factory to establish China's first limited-stock company controlled by a state-owned enterprise with private capital as a shareholder - Huaxia Music Co., Ltd.

What many people don’t know is that when it was founded, this was the country’s first joint-stock company with only one singer, Cao Zhiqiang. In just ten years, it has become the largest and most powerful audio-visual company in the country and is very famous internationally.

group.

Of course, that's all for later.
