1993 My China Entertainment Age

Chapter 318 Preparing for a New Album, Meeting Daolang for the First Time
After returning from visiting the crew of "A World Without Thieves", Jiang Xiaofeng's heart also began to be tangled.

Because Jiang Xiaofeng just learned from Feng Xiaogang that Feng Xiaogang's "A World Without Thieves" will, if nothing else happens, be released during this year's Lunar New Year.

In addition to "A World Without Thieves", there is also Zhou Xingchi's big production "Kung Fu", which will also be released in this year's Lunar New Year file.

Not to mention other things, as long as there are two movies "Kung Fu" and "A World Without Thieves", then this year's Chinese New Year in the Mainland will have a fierce competition.

And Jiang Xiaofeng originally planned to let the movie "Waiting Alone" be released in this year's Lunar New Year. Now that he is about to face the pincer attack of "Kung Fu" and "A World Without Thieves", he really has no confidence.

On the other hand, Jiang Xiaofeng felt that this year's Lunar New Year file would also be an opportunity for the movie "Waiting Alone".

Because in the current movie market, the best time is the New Year's Eve at the end of the year. Other times are not so good, and almost no one watches movies.

Therefore, after some careful consideration, Jiang Xiaofeng finally decided to set the movie "Waiting Alone" at this year's Lunar New Year.

There is a big reason why Jiang Xiaofeng dared to choose this schedule, because the movie "Waiting Alone" is a strong alliance between him and Zhou Jielun.

In Jiang Xiaofeng's opinion, with Zhou Jielun joining "Waiting Alone", with his super appeal, the box office guarantee should be more than 1000 million.

If the word-of-mouth is good and the publicity is strong, the box office of the movie "Waiting Alone" will exceed 3000 million, and it is not impossible.

Of course, even if the movie "Waiting Alone" fails in Waterloo in the end and fails to achieve the expected goal, Jiang Xiaofeng can afford to lose, at worst, just make another one next year.

Unlike other directors who are supported by others, Jiang Xiaofeng is capital himself, and there are many opportunities for trial and error.

In the next few days, Jiang Xiaofeng started to enter the recording studio to record his 16th album.

Originally, Jiang Xiaofeng had already planned not to release a new album in the past two or three years, because he really didn't want to "create" these romantic works anymore, he wanted to improve his schedule and "create" some more in-depth works .

But at the same time, Jiang Xiaofeng was also very clear in his heart that if his new album wanted to become popular and sell well, it should still focus on pop songs that were romantic.

If Jiang Xiaofeng starts to transform now and write some in-depth, emotional, but difficult works, then the sales of his new album are likely to drop sharply.

Although Jiang Xiaofeng has dominated the Chinese music scene for 11 years and has won all the honors and awards, but facing the challenge of his junior Zhou Jielun, he still has a competitive heart and does not want to lose to him.

At least for now, Jiang Xiaofeng has not reached the level of ignoring fame and fortune. Obviously, he still wants to win Zhou Jielun again.

May 4st, morning.

Century Records.

Not long after Jiang Xiaofeng arrived at the office, Xiaolan at the front desk handed him a CD without a cover.

"Whose CD is this?"

Xiaolan replied truthfully: "Jiang Dong, this CD is a singer named Dao Lang, please ask me, let me hand over his record to you personally,"

Hearing the word "Dao Lang", Jiang Xiaofeng couldn't help being shocked, and quickly asked, "Where are the others? Where are they?"

Xiaolan replied: "Not long after I left, there is his contact information on the back."

Jiang Xiaofeng didn't talk too much, immediately picked up the phone, and called Dao Lang according to the phone number written on the back of the CD.

After Dao Lang received Jiang Xiaofeng's call, he rushed over from the hotel immediately.

"The first snow of 2002
later than usual

No. [-] car parked on the eighth floor
Take away the last fallen yellow leaf
......"

Jiang Xiaofeng was in the office, listening to the song "The First Snow in 2002" sung by Ye Daolang, it really felt like a world away.

Dao Lang's vicissitudes and hoarse voice seemed to bring Jiang Xiaofeng back to 2004 in another time and space all at once.

In another time and space, in Jiang Xiaofeng's impression, the song "The First Snow in 2002" sung by Dao Lang was almost popular from the beginning of 2004 to the end of 2004.

The song "The First Snow in 2002" can really be said to have been popular all over the country from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, from the countryside to the city, and from the city to the countryside.

But in this time and space, due to various factors, the song "The First Snow in 2002" by Dolan has not yet become popular and is not well known.

After half an hour.

In the office, Jiang Xiaofeng saw Dao Lang wearing a hat and bowing his head.

Daolang is very shy, wears a hat all the time, and his voice is relatively low, which forms a strong contrast with the high-pitched and loud singing voice when he sings.

Seeing Dao Lang's restrained expression, Jiang Xiaofeng said with a smile: "It's okay, don't be so nervous, acquaintances are friends, there is no need to be so tense, take it easy,"

Hearing Jiang Xiaofeng's words and seeing Jiang Xiaofeng being so approachable, Dao Lang was also slightly relieved, forcing a smile on his face.

After chatting for a while, Jiang Xiaofeng also asked Dao Lang directly: "Do you want to find me to help you release this record?"

Daolang nodded: "Yes, Mr. Jiang, I... hope, I can get your help."

Jiang Xiaofeng then asked: "You probably didn't sell the copyright of this record to anyone else?"

Dao Lang hurriedly replied: "No, no one wants to issue it,"

Seeing Dao Lang being so sincere, Jiang Xiaofeng was also very happy, and asked with a smile: "Why did you come to me? Didn't you find someone else to help you publish it?"

Dao Lang didn't hide it, and told Jiang Xiaofeng about his mental journey in detail.

After some communication, Jiang Xiaofeng initially learned that Dao Lang dropped out of junior high school at the age of 16, went to Neijiang from Zizhong County, and wandered in Chengdu, Chongqing, and Xi'an and other cities two years later. for 4 years” and learned an instrument during this time.

Until 1995, he went to Hainan to sing, and then met his current wife.

The two went to Xinjiang. At this time, Dao Lang was confused and at a loss. Later, when he heard Xinjiang folk music, he was instantly inspired and began to collect and create a lot of songs. After 8 years of hard work, he worked hard on more than 3000 songs.

During this period, I also experienced the creation of the first album "Love Songs of the Western Regions", which is a cover album. At that time, I was too poor to hire a singer, so I sang by myself.

Later, he was appreciated by musicians in Yanjing, and his unique voice was recognized by many people, but because no record company was willing to release it, in the end this splash did not cause much ripples.

When he was desperate, Dao Lang came to Century Records on the recommendation of his friend and decided to ask Jiang Xiaofeng for help.

This is how today, Jiang Xiaofeng and Dao Lang met for the first time.
