Rebirth of the Great Entertainment Empire

…

The current DreamWorks is no different from the leather bag company except for some people.

For a film company that is just starting out, this is actually nothing.

However, for a record company, this is too ugly-as a record company, it doesn't even have a recording studio, which is too unreasonable!

After Su Rui, who Xu Cun brought back from Taiwan, learned of this situation, he immediately lost confidence in the way forward.

Later, after hearing from Huang Baigao that Xu Cun was the lyricist and composer of "Shanghai Bund" and "Sword Like a Dream", Su Rui rekindled a little hope.

...

Fengxing Records is a well-known local record company.

In the early 1970s, Zheng Shaoqiu's first album "The Lover Got Married" was released by Fengxing Records. At that time, Pop Records was at its peak - many well-known singers were under its banner. Moreover, Fengxing Records has cooperative relations with TVB and Lishi.

However, the good times don't last long!

one year later.

Wireless established its own record company - Huaxing Records.

Overseas behemoth Polygram acquired Diamond Records, reorganized as Xiangjiang Polygram, and then aggressively seized the market and singers.

The performance of Fengxing Records has plummeted since then.

However, Boss Deng of Fengxing Records is a stubborn guy who loves the music business—despite the difficult situation, he still struggled for eight years.

It's a pity that the situation of Pop Records is going from bad to worse...

Two months ago, more than a dozen employees and five singers collectively switched jobs from Fengxing Records to Polygram. Boss Deng suffered a stroke after being hit by this, and his son Deng Yiming, who was studying in the United States, hurried back to Xiangjiang to take over Fengxing Records.

Originally, Fengxing Records was on the verge of life and death. Now that Optimus Prime has fallen, Fengxing Records has naturally become distracted, and employees and singers have left one after another—in just two months, the remaining personnel of Fengxing Records plus Deng Yiming did not exceed double digits.

Fortunately, the infrastructure and distribution channels of Fengxing Records are still there. Therefore, it still has the value of being acquired.

"How's the conversation with Deng Yiming going?" Xu Cun asked casually while teaching Anita Mui to play the piano.

"Not too good, Deng Yiming doesn't want to sell popular records at all." Huang Baigao replied.

"So, is there any other suitable record company?" Xu Cun asked again.

"The distribution channel of Fengxing Records should be ranked among the top five in Xiangjiang, and other newly established recording companies simply cannot compare with Fengxing Records." Huang Baigao said.

"Didn't Deng Yiming not sell it?" Xu Cun asked a little puzzled.

"I'm afraid he can't help but stop selling—I've inquired about it. Deng Yiming's father has already emptied the family property in order to maintain the operation of Fengxing Records, and he owes more than three million usury loans. I guess it won't take long. , those loan sharks will force Deng Yiming to sell Fengxing Records." Huang Baigao asserted.

"Oh? Are you sure?" Xu Cun asked slightly interested.

"Five or six points." Huang Baigao replied.

"If you can buy Fengxing Records at a suitable price, I will separate the record department from DreamWorks to form a separate DreamWorks Records, and then you will be fully responsible for the operation of DreamWorks Records, and I will give you 100% of DreamWorks Records 10% of the shares." Xu Cun promised.

Xu Cun's promise made Huang Baigao's heart beat wildly—according to what Xu Cun said, Huang Baigao was no longer a wage earner, but one of the bosses of a record company with great development prospects, and he could still have How could he, who was just a warehouse manager a few months ago, not be excited about the management rights of this company?

Sophisticated Xu Cun knows that in a subsidiary company, one person must not be allowed to dominate—otherwise, after a long time, his boss may be excluded.

Therefore, Xu Cun said again: "Since Deng Yiming is not willing to sell Fengxing Records to us, then give him some shares, less than 10%, you can negotiate. After the negotiation is completed, let him be your assistant. I think he, a sea turtle studying in the United States, should be able to help you share some pressure?"

Xu Cun asked Huang Baigao to talk to Deng Yiming about Deng Yiming's shares. Huang Baigao will definitely lower Deng Yiming's shares in order to ensure the right to speak in DreamWorks Records. And if Deng Yiming knew that Xu Cun was going to give him 10% of the shares, but was suppressed maliciously by Huang Baigao, he would definitely have some resentment towards Huang Baigao. In this way, Huang Baigao and Deng Yiming will never urinate in the same pot, and Xu Cun, the behind-the-scenes boss, can be safe.

Of course, there are disadvantages in Xu Cun's doing this - Huang Baigao and Deng Yiming restrain each other, which may affect the development of DreamWorks Records, and even cause one of them to leave.

However, Xu Cun also has a backup—Xu Cun plans to develop DreamWorks Records into a pure distribution company, record production will stay in DreamWorks, and all singers will be managed by future brokerage companies. In this way, even if Huang Baigao or Deng Yiming had two minds, it would not affect the overall situation.

The current Huang Baigao is relatively immature, and he has no idea of ​​Xu Cun's sinister intentions - he thinks that Xu Cun gave Deng Yiming shares only to help him acquire Fengxing Records. So, feeling the pressure was greatly relieved, he immediately expressed his determination: "Brother Cun, don't worry, I will definitely win the pop music at the lowest price!"

"Well, you've worked hard." Xu Cun said.

"It's not hard, I like doing these things." Huang Baigao said. Immediately, Huang Baigao suddenly remembered something, and said again: "By the way, Brother Cun, I want to sign a singer?"

"Who is it?" Xu Cun asked casually.

"His name is Chen Baiqiang, and he won the third place in this Xiangjiang Pop Song Writing Invitational Competition. He said that he is very happy with your "What I Want in Life", "I Like You" and "Loving You Deeply", so I want to come to our company to develop , I have heard him sing, his level is very good, his voice is also very suitable for these three songs of Brother Cun, and he can also compose." Huang Baigao said to himself.

Hearing that Huang Baigao wanted to sign Chen Baiqiang, Xu Cun couldn't help feeling bored—Xu Cun didn't have much prejudice against Chen Baiqiang, but he was afraid that Chen Baiqiang would get involved with He Chaoqiong. In that case, Xu Cun will be very upset!

However, after all, Chen Baiqiang is a singer who is second only to Tan Yonglin and Zhang Guorong. Xu Cun, who wants to develop his record business, can't push such a talent out?

So, after being silent for a while, Xu Cun said to Huang Baigao: "Talk to Chen Baiqiang, if he is willing to sign a 20-year contract with DreamWorks, I will give you "What I Want in My Life", "I Like You", "Deep Love" Sing to him "I Love You", and the company will spare no effort to make him popular..."
