Red Star Production Cooperative

Wang Fei and Chen Jiantian, the former manager of the band Beyond, founded a music company in mainland China. From 1992 to 1994, the company's offices were located in rooms 8001 and 8002 of the Liufang Hotel.

By early 1995, the company had grown significantly.

After signing a number of well-known singers, including Zheng Jun, Xu Wei, Tian Zhen, Paradise, Cobra, Hua Zi, and Xiao Ke, the company moved to the Laoshan Horse Ranch Villa in Xishan.

The reason Jiangnan knows this old story so clearly is because in his previous life, he worked at this company for 10 years, changing roles from guitarist to drummer to keyboardist and then to music producer.

They stayed until Red Star Production Company was acquired by Taihe Rye Music Company.

Returning to Jiangnan now, he is filled with emotion.

He always wanted to shout, "I, Hu Hansan, am back!"

no way.

This is a hotel catering to foreigners. Not only can you spot fake Japanese people who act arrogantly towards the hotel staff, but you can also see some real foreigners with blond hair and blue eyes.

Forget it, I'll go to Chen Jiantian's office and yell at him again.

With that thought in mind, Jiangnan took the elevator in the main building and arrived at the 8th floor.

After exiting the elevator, turn left and you'll find yourself in a long corridor. At the end of the corridor lies his destination—the Red Star Production Company.

My love is naked

My love is naked…

Before Jiangnan even reached the door of room 8001, he heard a man singing coming from inside.

Without even thinking, he knew that this was Zheng Jun, the first singer signed by Red Star Production Company, polishing the title track of his first album.

  

Speaking of which, Chan Kin-tim, the owner of Red Star Production Company, was really something else. From the time Cheng Kwan signed with them in 1992 until the release of his first album, "Naked?!" in 1994, he supported this guy for a full two years.

Food and lodging are provided, plus a basic salary!

"Hello, who are you looking for?"

As Jiangnan was reminiscing about the past, someone patted him on the shoulder. Turning around, he saw a young man wearing glasses staring straight at him.

Zhao Xiaodong…

Just as Jiangnan was about to utter the name, he swallowed it back.

Reborn and seeing familiar faces from my past life—the art planners at Red Star Production Company—always gets me a little excited.

Thankfully, Jiangnan held back!

"Hello, I'm looking for General Manager Chen Jiantian."

They didn't speak Mandarin; Jiangnan speaks Cantonese. In his previous life, he followed Old Chen for ten years. Although he didn't earn much money, he learned a lot.

"You can speak Cantonese?" Zhao Xiaodong, the planner at Red Star Production Company, is a native of Beijing and only speaks Mandarin.

"A little bit!"

As soon as Jiangnan said this, a middle-aged man of short stature poked his head out from room 8001.

"Who's looking for me?"

"Hello, Mr. Chen, it's me who's looking for you!"

Upon seeing Chen Jiantian, Jiangnan became even more excited, took two steps forward, and extended his hands to the man.

"Hello, Mr. Chen!"

My name is Jiangnan, and I'm a student at the Central Academy of Drama. I've brought my work with me here today, and I'd like to sign with your company.

"Hmm... the young man is quite good-looking!"

Holding Jiang Nan's hand, Chen Jiantian looked him up and down before saying with some regret, "However, we are a music company and do not sign actors."

"I want to sign with your company as a singer. This is my original song. Could you take a look and see if it's feasible?" At the door of room 8001, Jiang Nan released Chen Jiantian's hand and took out a piece of paper from his pocket.

"Single Love Song..."

Chen Jiantian frowned after glancing at the song's title.

"right!

Here's what happened: This morning, my classmate and I went to buy toiletries. When we passed Houhai, we saw a young couple arguing on Yinding Bridge.

A beautiful woman is pressuring a man to break up with his girlfriend, but the man doesn't want to.

So, the tall, beautiful woman with a strong personality immediately jumped off the bridge.

Watching this scene, I wondered, beautiful lady, do you really want to marry that man? You know he already has a girlfriend.

Actually, when you think about it carefully, being single is pretty good.

So, I wrote this song from this beautiful woman's perspective...

※※※※※※※※※※

I'm so angry!

Wang Fei swore that she had never seen such an impolite student in her entire life.

This morning, I had a fight with my boyfriend Dou Wei and jumped into Houhai Lake to show that I would marry no one but him. But as soon as I jumped in, even though I'm a very good swimmer and hadn't even started to act like I was drowning, I saw a young student jump in after me.

The young student jumped in and started thrashing around in the water…

Seeing this, Wang Fei was furious. "You can't even swim, what the hell are you doing jumping in to save people?!"

And that's not all!

I rescued him and performed CPR, but instead of being grateful, he tried to touch my face.

If that's all there is to it, then so be it!

Just now, on the first floor of Liufang Hotel, the elevator arrived, and he went in. Chen Jiaying walked slowly and stood in the lobby waving to him, signaling him to let the elevator wait.

But this kid was so rude; he pretended not to see it, closed the door, and took the elevator up.

If that's all there is to it, then it's not a problem.

But this bastard shouldn't have done that at all—he shouldn't have spoken ill of him like that in front of his former manager, Chen Jiantian…

What do you mean by saying a beautiful woman and her boyfriend were arguing on the Yinding Bridge? What do you mean by saying a beautiful woman, unable to win an argument, jumped into the river to prove her point? What do you mean by saying this song, "Single Love Song," was written from the perspective of a beautiful woman?

Damn it...

You really think we Beijing girls are easy to bully? Watch me scratch your face until it's bruised and battered.

Thinking of this, Wang Fei, who is 1.74 meters tall, rolled up her sleeves and was about to rush forward, but at the critical moment, Chen Jiaying pulled her back.

"Ah Fei, don't get agitated, listen..."

I heard…

What are you listening to?

Should I listen to him continue to make fun of me?

Although this guy didn't mention my name, the news of me jumping into the river will spread throughout the Beijing music scene in less than two days.

Wang Fei had only grumbled to herself for a moment when, standing in the corridor, she heard a soft singing voice coming from the door of room 8001.

"Me, who can't hold onto love"

I always just watched it slip away.

Happy people are everywhere in the world.

Why can't I be included?

Fighting alone for love…

After listening to just a few lines of a song, Wang Fei, who was just burning with anger, instantly felt empathy.

I empathized with the protagonist in the song.

Previously, given my typical Beijing girl personality, if I saw a man I liked, I would pursue him.

"I don't care if you like me or not, as long as I like you, that's enough."

But now, when facing rock singer Dou Wei, Wang Fei often feels powerless and passive. She wants to talk about love with him, to spend romantic time with him, and to create songs with him in harmony.

But when he arrived in the capital, he found that Dou Wei's girlfriend, Jiang Xin, was still living in his house.

Want to let go?

But I can't bear to part with it!

And so, that little show was staged in Houhai today, but unfortunately, it all fell through.

Eh…

Wang Fei sighed.

"Forget it, let's just make peace with ourselves, like that kid sings in his song!"

So many people are heartbroken

I should live bravely

Don't let love pass you by and cause you to miss out.

I'm left all alone, singing love songs!

"Slap slap slap..."

The applause came suddenly, startling Chen Jiantian, who was lost in the Jiangnan songs. When he came to his senses, he realized that Wang Fei and Chen Jiaying were standing in the corridor.

Hi, Afei!

Just as Chen Jiantian was about to greet her, Wang Fei stepped forward and said, "Jiangnan, right? I bought the rights to perform this song. How much?"

Is it 2000? Or 3000?
