Back to 2001

"Xiao Chu, are there any artists who are talented in music among the artists signed by our company?"

Chen Jianghe asked with a smile without any mood swings.

Xiao Chu was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Brother Chen, what kind of talent do you mean by talent? Many of the artists we have signed are good singers."

For more than a year, various singing talent shows held by Jianglin Entertainment Company across the country have recruited a large number of male and female singers with natural voices.

These singers are obviously "talented" singers who are rewarded by God.

But of course Xiao Chu knew that the "talent" in Chen Jianghe's mouth was by no means the kind of "talent" in the general sense.

Otherwise, the other party will not make a special trip to ask yourself this question.

Chen Jianghe looked at Xiao Chu, and said calmly: "The singing and writing are excellent."

Xiao Chu couldn't help but frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.

Although the explanation of "music talent" given by this boss Chen is only the four words "excellent singing and writing".

But how easy is it to meet these two conditions at the same time?

Although the number of singers who debuted through the talent show has a natural singing voice is not large.

But it is definitely not "rare".

The boys and girls who are good at singing and dancing that Jianglin Entertainment Company has signed for more than a year are enough to form ten or eight boy and girl groups.

But there are very few singers with original ability.

Even those who can write their own songs cannot even meet the minimum professional standards.

Not to mention having talent in music creation.

Seeing Xiao Chu's reaction, Chen Jianghe basically already knew the answer.

Originally, he still had a little bit of luck in his heart, and he was able to discover a few musical geniuses in China who could keep pace with music superstars like Jay Chou, Pu Shu, and Eason Chan.

Now it seems that this idea is still too unrealistic.

After all, all you need to have a good voice is to sing.

However, if you want to create classic songs that can be popular, you need to have profound attainments in music.

Obviously, for a country that has just eaten its fill for a few years, it has not yet had time to breed a fertile soil for cultivating artistic geniuses.

It is difficult to emerge a large number of masters in various fields of art in the short term.

"Xiao Chu, you go to Hong Kong and Taiwan during this time, and have an interview with some of the most popular singers at the moment."


When she heard Chen Jianghe utter the first half of the sentence just now, the blood in her whole body boiled involuntarily.

Compared with the mainland, the most popular singers in Hong Kong and Taiwan are indeed more than two or three grades stronger.

It seems that they are the music superstars who are in full swing.

If these singers can be recruited to sign artist contracts with Jianglin Entertainment Company, it will definitely be a very fulfilling event!

If we take a step back, even if we fail to recruit all these singers, we must at least buy their record publishing rights.
Such a serious attitude but just confessed such a simple job, it's like a joke!

This time it was Chen Jianghe's turn to be stunned.

He was silent for a while, looked at Xiao Chu in disbelief and said, "You just said that you recruited all these singers...are you joking?"

From Chen Jianghe's point of view, those superstars in the music world are like inexhaustible gold mountains!
"Brother Chen, our domestic market is what these Hong Kong and Taiwan singers dream of."

Xiao Chu looked at Chen Jianghe with a smile and said, "During this time, there have been second-tier singers from Hong Kong and Taiwan entrusting their managers to beg me to sign a contract with our Jianglin Entertainment Company."

"The reason why those first-line singers didn't come to the door is probably because they are actively waiting and watching. I think as long as they take the initiative to throw an olive branch to the other party, and then make a sincere enough signing offer, there is still a good chance of winning."

Chen Jianghe hesitated for a moment, and asked, "If you want to recruit Jay Chou, what kind of price will you need?"

At this moment, Jay Chou has just released two albums "jay" and "Fantasy", and has made his mark in the Chinese music scene.

In the next few years, Jay Chou will gradually become a "Godfather" figure in the Chinese music scene.

From Chen Jianghe's point of view, even if he spends [-] million yuan to lure Jay Chou over, it will still be blood money for his grandma's family.

"Jay Chou? This seems to be a male singer who just debuted?"

When Xiao Chu heard Chen Jianghe say the name of "Jay Chou", he asked suspiciously: "Brother Chen, didn't you ask me to dig out popular singers like the Four Kings of Hong Kong?"

"Let's forget about the Four Heavenly Kings..."

Chen Jianghe immediately shook his head and denied, "Let me provide you with a list, so as not to cause any misunderstanding."

As he spoke, he took out a pen and wrote down a series of names on the notepad.

"Jay Chou, Eason Chan, Pu Shu, Zhang Huimei, Jolin Tsai, Stefanie Sun..."

While Chen Jianghe was writing the names of these singers, Xiao Chu stood behind him and watched.

But the more he looked down, Xiao Chu's eyes widened, and his expression became more and more puzzled.

Because these so-called singers written by Chen Jianghe don't even have a popular singer.

Most of them are rising stars who have just released one or two albums.

Such a rookie singer's status in the music world is actually not high.

Because there are many newcomers who can make a sensation with an album when they first debuted.

However, the albums released later were mixed with good and bad, and they disappeared from the public.

There is such a saying in the music world.

"It's not a skill to release an album that becomes a hit, but it's a real skill to release a hit."

It is for this reason that the living space for new singers is often extremely cruel.

The vast majority of brokerage companies are unwilling to sign contracts with rookie singers, for fear of accidentally spending a lot of money to sign a "good-for-nothing".

"How confident are you in recruiting these singers? How much quotation does each person need?"

Chen Jianghe handed the notepad with the singer's name on it to Xiao Chu and asked.

"About 1000 million."

Xiao Chu made a relatively conservative offer without hesitation.

"1000 million? Is it an average of 1000 million per person?"

Chen Jianghe was obviously taken aback by this number.

If such a cheap price can sign contracts with these music superstars, it will be no different from picking them up for nothing!

"No, no, Brother Chen, you think too much."

Xiao Chu shook his head, and said with a serious expression: "I mean, if you add all the people on this list together, you can get around 1000 million."

Chen Jianghe: "???"

You know, he wrote about 10 singers who are still popular after a few years!

It is no exaggeration to say that it became popular for an entire era!

But Xiao Chu brazenly said that he could "package" and acquire so many music superstars with only 1000 million yuan.

This is no different from roadblocking and robbery in "broad daylight, bright heaven and earth"!

"Brother Chen, let me explain to you."

Seeing Chen Jianghe's puzzled expression, Xiao Chu explained with a smile: "At least half of the singers you wrote about have already sent their agents to contact me. I've been evading and not going to see them. Just wanted to wait and see for a while."

As the general manager of Jianglin Entertainment Company, Xiao Chu naturally wants to ensure that the artists signed by the company can bring real economic benefits.

Like these rookie singers who have only released one or two albums in their debut, they naturally have to be cautious.

"Don't wait and see... take them all in the shortest possible time."

Chen Jianghe took a deep breath, suppressed the impulse deep in his heart and said calmly: "I like these people, sign a contract with them immediately."

Chen Jianghe, who has been reborn after 20 years, of course knows that these superstars in the music world are already on the verge of "exploding".

Take Jay Chou as an example. At this moment, he has held the "theone concert" at the Taipei Stadium and achieved great success.

In about a month, Jay Chou will hold 5 "theone" concerts at the Hong Kong Hung Hom Stadium.

In another half a month, he held another "theone" concert in Las Vegas, USA.
The most popular singer-songwriter award in the 2nd Global Chinese Songs Chart.

The 9th Singapore Golden Melody Awards Asia Pacific Most Admired Male Singer Award and other awards.

In February 2003, Jay Chou became the cover character of the Asian edition of Time Magazine in the United States.

With these ensuing honors and halos, Jay Chou will also embark on the "road to becoming a god" in the music hall step by step.

If you don't hurry up and dig Jay Chou over now, the day lily will be completely cold after waiting for a few months!

"I understand, Brother Chen, I'll do it now!"

It was the first time for Xiao Chu to see Chen Jianghe's eagerness, so he left in a hurry.

Although she didn't quite understand that Boss Chen attached so much importance to these new singers who had just debuted.

However, it has been less than two years since Jianglin Group was established, and enough iron-like facts have proved Chen Jianghe's "foresight and foresight".

On every key issue and key decision, Chen Jianghe is always able to put forward a refreshing solution for everyone.

And in the end, it often proves that the solution proposed by Chen Jianghe is undoubtedly the best solution!

"Huh... isn't it a bit too shameless to do this?"

As soon as Xiao Chu left the office, Chen Jianghe took a long breath and sat down on the large and comfortable general manager's office chair.

Once upon a time, he hated the two behaviors of "blocking bugs" and "cutting leeks".

Unexpectedly, after I was reborn, I gradually became the person I hated the most.

If you want to blame, you can blame the "leeks" of these soon-to-be popular singers. They are too strong and attractive.

If Chen Jianghe didn't take advantage of this last opportunity to get stuck with a wave of bugs, he would feel sorry for his chance of rebirth.

After Xiao Chu left for a few minutes, Su Mingyu knocked on the office door.

"Mr. Chen, I thought about it just now. Mr. Tang's meeting with Baidu Vice President Jiang Xinlan tonight is too important."

Su Mingyu hesitated for a long time, and finally plucked up the courage to report to Chen Jianghehui: "Baidu wants to sign a drainage agreement with the WeChat community, and the other side specially sent a female vice president to have an interview with Mr. Tang."

"I communicated with Jiang Xinlan's personal assistant just now, and the other party seemed very embarrassed about our unilateral cancellation of the appointment. Because Jiang Xinlan has already booked a flight to Los Angeles tomorrow, and she will not be back until at least two months later."

Chen Jianghe also knew that Baidu wanted to sign a drainage agreement.

As long as Internet users click on the link of Baidu.com from the WeChat community page to enter the Baidu website.

The other party will pay the corresponding drainage fee according to the number of clicks.

After rough calculations, it is conservatively estimated that this drainage agreement can bring 1800 million yuan in additional monthly income to Jianglin Network Company.

Although the monthly income of 1800 million is not high, Jianglin Network Company does not have to pay any costs.

Earning this money is no different from picking it up for nothing!

Because the WeChat community has more than tens of millions of daily active users every day, it is really against the sky.

During this period of time, some large websites have successively wanted to negotiate and negotiate drainage agreements.

Originally, the senior executives above the vice president of these large companies were all men.

But considering that Ms. Tang Wan, the general manager of Jianglin Group, only meets female clients in private.

These big companies had to quickly promote a group of female executives, just to be able to conduct interviews with Ms. Tang Wan.

After all, only through interviews can we try our best to get the most favorable price for drainage.

Otherwise, the WeChat community will flood in like a huge flood of traffic.

The feeling of instantly increasing the activity and clicks of your website is very cool.

But it really hurts when the drainage fee is settled at the end of each month!

"Xiao Su, you can never run out of money."

Chen Jianghe looked at Su Mingyu with a smile and said, "Mr. Tang is sleeping soundly now, so don't disturb her."

In Chen Jianghe's view, let alone a monthly income of 1800 million yuan.

Even if it is improved by ten times on this basis, it is far less important than allowing one's own woman to sleep soundly!

"Okay... Mr. Chen."

Su Mingyu nodded helplessly, turned around and prepared to leave.

The monthly income of 1800 million is not taken seriously, and Su Mingyu has become accustomed to this "willful" behavior of Boss Chen.

Born as a woman in this life, if she can have a man like Chen Jianghe like Tang Wan.

That is simply a blessing that can only be obtained by at least saving the merits of the entire universe in the previous life!

Just when Su Mingyu opened the door and was about to leave, a mobile phone alarm clock rang suddenly from the bedroom suite.

Immediately afterwards, there was a rush of hurried sounds from inside.

Obviously, the woman who was still sleeping soundly on the soft and comfortable big bed was awakened by the alarm ringing of her mobile phone.

At the moment, she is in a hurry to get dressed.

Su Mingyu walked out of the general manager's office knowingly, and then closed the door gently behind her.

However, she did not step away from the office door, but quietly waited in place.

It seemed that what was about to happen next was completely within her expectations.

Sure enough, within a few minutes, the door of the office suddenly opened from the inside.

I saw Tang Wan blushing, leaning limply on Chen Jianghe's broad and strong arms.

"Xiao Su... is going to drive to Yanjing International Hotel..."

Tang Wan looked at Su Mingyu, contemplating for a long time before ordering feebly: "Time is running out...don't make Ms. Jiang Xinlan wait for us for too long, that would be too rude..."
