Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

"Mr. Lin, are you looking for me?"

Li Xiaotian has been working at ATV, hosting variety shows and writing songs.

His most well-known achievement is cultivating a generation of superstars Leslie Cheung and the ever-changing queen Anita Mui.

Originally, in his previous life, in the 1980s, Li Xiaotian switched to Wireless China Star Records.

However, in this life, because of Lin Daoqiu's relationship, ATV was established early, and Li Xiaotian naturally stayed.

"Mr. Li, I invited you here today because I want to discuss something with you."

"Mr. Lin, please tell me, as long as I can do it, I will do my best."

In fact, Li Xiaotian and Lin Daoqiu only met each other a few times, and they hardly talked to each other.

Being suddenly called to New Oriental Company today made Li Xiaotian a little nervous, but more confused.

After all, he is in charge of variety shows at ATV, and he usually does more music-related things.

Lin Daoqiu is a well-known screenwriter, producer, and movie tycoon. What kind of things would he discuss with himself?

"I want to open a record company, and I hope Mr. Li will come and help me."

At first, he was still guessing Lin Daoqiu's intention of summoning him, but Li Xiaotian never expected that the other party wanted to open a record company.

Originally, he thought that Lin Daoqiu was asking him to host some variety show, or help write songs or something like that.

Regarding the matter of the record company, it never appeared in Li Xiaotian's mind even once, not even once.

Looking at Li Xiaotian who looked surprised, Lin Daoqiu explained to him with a smile.

"New Oriental's business will be more extensive in the future, and records are just one of them. Mr. Li has rich experience in the music industry. I am relieved that you will be at the helm of the record company."

Hearing Lin Daoqiu's words made Li Xiaotian very happy.

After all, being recognized by Lin Daoqiu was a big encouragement to him.

But when he was suddenly put in charge of a record company, Li Xiaotian couldn't make up his mind for a while.

"Don't worry, Mr. Li. This record company is definitely not something I set up on a whim. I will provide you with the corresponding resources in Southeast Asia and even Hollywood."

Lin Daoqiu was absolutely sure that he could use his influence to create convenience for Li Xiaotian in Treasure Island, Neon, Han Country, and those countries in Southeast Asia.

If Lin Daoqiu hadn't said anything, Li Xiaotian would have been really worried that Lin Daoqiu would suddenly get hot and decide to open a record company.

If that's the case, then this record company won't be able to do much, and it probably belongs to the kind of model where it can't starve to death but can't get rich either.

But after Lin Daoqiu said this, Li Xiaotian suddenly began to have a lot of confidence in this record company.

If it were someone else who told him this, Li Xiaotian would never agree easily. After all, the risk is not small.

"If Mr. Lin thinks I can do it, then I'll give it a try."

Li Xiaotian decided to embrace Lin Daoqiu's lap and open this record company.

After all, New Oriental wanted money, money, and people, even more than Wireless, so I had no reason to refuse such a good opportunity.

"It's the end of March now, and I hope that by May, the record company will be officially up and running."

Lin Daoqiu's request sounded a bit urgent.

It is not impossible to open a record company in one month, but the problem is that many details need to be handled.

Just a recording studio would probably not be able to be set up in just a few months.

"Mr. Lin, can you give me two more months? One month is too late."

Li Xiaotian wanted to buy a little more time. After all, one month was really too much and he was worried that he would not be able to complete it.

"Don't worry, I will find someone to help you, and you only need to be responsible for the singing aspect. For the administrative aspect, I will arrange for others to take over."

Lin Daoqiu couldn't be so naive as to think that it would be enough to leave everything to Li Xiaotian alone.

At this time, he can't just be a hands-off shopkeeper, he has to help the other party make arrangements.

Originally, Li Xiaotian was worried that he was the only one who started this record company.

But after Lin Daoqiu said this, he realized that the other party had already had a vision for this record company.

"If that's the case, then I have no problem."

"Welcome Mr. Li to join New Oriental Records."

Lin Daoqiu was too lazy to think of another name, so he named the record company New Oriental directly.

However, Li Xiaotian doesn't think there is anything wrong with this name. After all, this is the record company run by Lin Daoqiu, so it will be easier to gain popularity with this name.

New Oriental Records was quickly established under the leadership of Lin Daoqiu.

The first batch of artists signed to New Oriental Records include Leslie Cheung, "Happy Girls", Su Rui.

Moreover, Lin Daoqiu and Xu Guanjie also agreed that when his record contract with Kang Yichengyin expires, he will switch to New Oriental Records.

A newly established record company was able to recruit two superstars from the Hong Kong Cantonese music scene to join the company.

However, because Leslie Cheung and Xu Guanjie are both people who are closely related to Lin Daoqiu, everyone was surprised and felt that this was actually nothing strange.

Talking about human relationships is relatively common in Chinese society, not to mention that they will have more cooperation with Lin Daoqiu in film and television dramas in the future, and signing with New Oriental Records is not too strange.

While opening a record company, Lin Daoqiu was also busy with the post-production of "Tomb Raider".

And because the news about "Godzilla" has been revealed, Lin Daoqiu has a lot to do now.

But this year is indeed a bit unusual for Lin Daoqiu.

In addition to his development in the film and television industry, there is another thing waiting for him in the business world.

…………

The tug-of-war over Heung Kong Electric is still going on, and Chan Ka-sing is still unable to acquire all the shares in Heung Kong Electric as he wishes.

But the strange thing is that his rival Foden suddenly stopped during this period and did nothing.

Bao Shaoqiang of Bao Yun International did not continue to increase prices, so the acquisition war of Xiangjiang Electric suddenly calmed down for a long time.

For Chen Jiasheng, Heung Kong Electric Light must be bought, and it must be bought as soon as possible.

For this reason, he has raised the price to 3.3 billion Hong Kong dollars, hoping to get those British guys to sell Xiangjiang Electric Light to him as soon as possible.

But it is a pity that the other party still keeps dragging Chen Jiasheng, even though the price has made them very satisfied.

"These hateful guys are so greedy that they won't sell it for 3.3 billion. What on earth do they want to do?"

Chen Jiasheng was so angry that he punched the table directly.
