"I think you are just lustful! Why do you find so many excuses? Your Xiaosui Mina has been in love with you for five or six years, and now she is only in her 20s like you, and she is starting to get tired of the old and old? Are you eyeing the 17 or 18-year-old girl Shuiling?"

In the studio of tvb TV, with a recording of the talent show, the intermission time entered. Han Ting in the stands couldn't help but find a remote opportunity and said a few words to Gu Ao.

Gu Ao has been back in Xiangjiang for a week this time. The specific action he is currently busy with is planning the talent show for his record company, Tiankun Music, and by the way, he will release the first wave of records for the newcomers he has made.

"Don't blame me, okay? I just do something and love something. Even if it is a business that is used as a cover, you must do it well and make creativity. Only in this way can the layman believe that you are really interested.

Xiao Min and the others who I want to praise now have a good singing skills, but it is impossible to conquer the audience by just relying on their voice. They must count on their beauty and character to exert their power to be truly popular. This requires packaging her legitimacy and letting the audience completely believe that she is very grassroots, without any backstage crotches, climbing up purely."

Faced with Han Ting's doubts, Gu Ao exonerated himself. Although Han Ting was a little unwilling to accept it, she still accepted these sets of truthful settings.

This is also an important business of protection and whitewashing nature.

Therefore, the organizers and bonus investors of this talent show are all Tiankun Music. However, Tiankun does not have his own TV station, so he rented TVB's program time period to do it.

Relying on the prestige accumulated in the Daguling and Shatoujiao planning projects at the beginning of the year, Sir Shao did not dare not to borrow channels even though he knew that it was possible to cultivate potential competitors.

Besides, by 1985, Xiangjiang's TV circle was not the only one. There was also ATV and Lite, which was not as high as the ratings of wireless. Sir Shao and Fang Yihua were not good at launching their business, but offended people instead.

Shaw Brothers can only comfort himself by saying "Gu Ao's Tiankun Music Company is mainly to support singers and sell records in the future, which will have little impact on the film and television industry." He turned a blind eye and passed it.

In the 1985 years of Xiangjiang entertainment industry, film, television and music are still very small. Record companies only compete for record companies' business, and no one will think they have the ability to gradually threaten film and television companies across circles.

Shaw Brothers was not wary of Gu Ao's roundabout development, and after weighing the pros and cons, it was not surprising that he felt that there was no need to get into evil.

Gu Ao chatted with Han Ting for a while. The half-time break of the talent show had ended and the program gradually entered the Gaochao stage. Zhou Huimin, who had already been decided by Gu Ao, also began to go on stage and show her singing voice.

I have to say that the packaging effect is really good. Zhou Huimin's singing was originally tender and clear, and there was no texture, but combined with the cold stage lights and cool appearance, it brought a huge visual impact to the audience on this summer night in July.

Even the audience in the stands in the studio shook the glowing props from the bottom of their hearts. Everyone did not yell, but whispered in the tone, but everyone's voices still resonated with each other.

Han Ting was slightly moved by it, and her mouth was basically unmoved and said coldly: "This is the so-called "pure jade girl" route you invented? Is it really a way to make money. Not only do you have to earn audiences by relying on singing skills and hard power, but you also hope to earn audiences by selling your character."

When it comes to selling character design, the idol manufacturers in the entertainment industry in later generations must be much more heartless than Gu Ao.

Gu Ao just used the common sense of ordinary people to point out the planners under Yang Shoucheng's hands, and the rest were played by the people below.

However, there is no need to have many things that flash with a flash of inspiration. Sometimes, a small idea that goes beyond the times can have a very powerful effect by using it.

In the industry atmosphere of 1985, whether it is film and television actors, singers, or agency companies mainly focus on their professional skills when packaging and promotion, and rarely track their life designs and debut backgrounds.

This is also easy to understand, because in the era when Shaw Brothers dominated the world, Shaw Brothers did not want the audience to remember or pursue specific stars. What they hope was "whoever the company supports will become famous, and whoever the company makes will become famous", so that celebrities will not have the capital to threaten Shaw Brothers to change jobs.

You just need to show your work side. As for your habits and character in life, you can promote your own promotion with paparazzi and gossip magazines. The company will not provide resources. If your own promotion is inconsistent with the company's attitude, the company can punish you.

Those who truly showcase the lives and character of artists in all aspects are those entertainment businessmen who play the role of rookie against Shaw Brothers. After all, they have few resources and cannot win whoever they win. They can only expect that no matter how many cards they have, it is best for each one to be as popular as possible.

For them, the contradiction between investors and artists is far less than that between investors and the competition for external markets, and the former must give way.

However, because the overall recession of the Xiangjiang music scene a few years ago, this kind of publicity has not yet developed. To sum up to the height of "packaging pure jade women's design", the first generation in history who played "pure jade women's design" in the Xiangjiang entertainment industry was going to wait for Zhou Huimin's wave.

Gu Ao just followed the trend and was slightly ahead of the trend: According to the original development trajectory, Zhou Huimin actually went to the radio station to work as a DJ for a year or two after winning the talent show in 1985, and then started selling singers around 1987, and the record released the following year.

Gu Ao now has a lot of resources. Tiankun Music has made two years earlier than Yang Shoucheng's yh record in another time and space, and the people he supported were only in one step.

In the face of Han Ting's doubts, Gu Ao did not deny this, but he also emphasized that he was heartless and that if he wanted to make a name, he would not just rely on the trick of selling his character to make a fortune.

"Although selling characters is disgusting, it is impossible to become famous by selling characters without real information. I have put in much more effort than you think." Taking advantage of the end of the song, Gu Ao explained so much.

"What other tricks have you done?" Han Ting asked casually.

"Don't you think this song is good?" Gu Ao asked confidently.

Han Ting reminisced about it and had to admit: "It's really beautiful, so what you call off-site kung fu is to find some talented lyricists and songwriters to serve the singers you want to praise? Write songs specifically for them?"

Gu Ao admitted complacently: "I did spend some resources and hired a few lyricists with some skills. However, I paid more attention to discovering among the newcomers in the talent show and let them proposition cover and write lyrics.

For example, a seedling who was about to participate in the men's group draft was named Li Keqin, and his level was good. Today, the lyrics of Zhou Huimin's song were in the alternative group. I asked everyone to fill in the topic, and he filled it out."

Historically, Li Keqin debuted at the 18th District Song Contest in Xiangjiang in 1885. He was like Zhang Xueyou. Gu Ao started a new event, which was normal to attract people.

"Where did that song come from?" Han Ting asked curiously.

Gu Ao smiled proudly: "Of course the song is from Japan. This is to mention that I am planning to let my company dominate the grand plan of Xiangjiang music scene in the next few years. What do you think I have done in the past week of returning to China?

I was not idle. Through the friendship with Teresa Teng a few years ago, I asked her to be an intermediary, and asked Aunt Meixue for a coffee, and also invited her agency and copyright operator. I spent 100 million yen to buy out the Chinese cover rights for all her songs.

A few years ago, this matter was in its infancy, and anyone who caught it would be turned over. The copyright protection of the law in Xiangjiang was not strict about the cover of foreign music. After all, at that time, Xiangjiang's paid music industry was only of this size, and foreigners were too lazy to come to protect their rights across the country, and they were not enough attorney fees.

However, from today on, I bought out. In the future, no one can legally cover this acre of three-point land in Xiangjiang. Of course, unless they insist on asking me to buy and sub-authorize the authorization at a high price, and then complain that I 'insufficient use of authorization and malicious failure to use authorization may reduce the influence and interests of the original creator's,' then I may be reluctant to pay a few songs at a high price. Otherwise, other Xiangjiang companies will not think about it in the future."

1985 years ago, the Hong Kong music industry's charging standards for reorganizing foreign music was roughly as follows: If you try a song or a movie, it's not popular or lost, then you will assume that nothing happened and you won't give the original songwriter any money.

If you have a little hottest after trying the waters, then come to the door and give a cover authorization fee of tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of yen per song. Afterwards, the authorization was accepted and the Japanese basically accepted it, and there will be no more trouble. After all, the litigation cost is high.

According to the exchange rate before the yen appreciates, 100,000 yen is only 2,000 to 3,000 Hong Kong dollars, and a song has the highest maximum of no more than 10,000 Hong Kong dollars.

Han Ting doesn't know the historical market, so at first glance, she doesn't know whether Gu Ao said "100 million yen to buy out all the songs that Nakajima Miyuki has published in Chinese, and will give priority to obtaining the authorization for songs that she has not written in her life in the future according to a fixed share ratio." Is it expensive or cheap?

Han Ting thought about it and found that it was only 500,000 US dollars, or 3 million Hong Kong dollars, which seemed not much.

However, after she humbly asked Gu Ao for literacy, she felt it was expensive.

"One song is only sold for a few thousand to 10,000 to 20,000 Hong Kong dollars? Then you buy it out for 100 million yen at one time, which does not mean that you have to cover at least 200 songs to make a profit? You are letting the Japanese take advantage! No wonder they sell it so happily." Han Ting couldn't help but feel patriotic, dissatisfied with Gu Ao letting the Japanese make money.

Gu Ao, however, was very confident: "This account is not calculated like this. After it becomes popular, the price will increase. They allowed me to buy it, but they also liked it. Only when I asked me to buy it out would I spend my energy to make it famous.

Moreover, the key to this transaction is to block others' path. After a few years, my artists will become popular, and Polygon and other records also want to follow the trend and cover them, so they have no right to turn it over. I, like me, have to do whatever business I do."
