Chapter 160 "Hot Items"

When they were on the stage, some of the judges directly issued invitations regardless of their face, and when they came off the stage, those who Li Yong thought were scouts naturally made their moves immediately.

In a short period of time, Li Yong received more than a dozen business cards, and had a brief exchange with several of them.

It cannot be said that he has no understanding of the curved music scene in the 90s and [-]s. He has heard some songs and knows some singers, so he is naturally interested in looking up some information, plus the works he has seen.

At least, for some music production companies, there are still famous names.

Some are still active after 30 or [-] years, and some gradually die out during the development process.

For example, the judge teacher who directly invited him just now said that Rolling Stone International Music is actually a new company that has only been established for three or four years. This is why this teacher is so bold to act, because the company is young and energetic, and the employees Of course it is also more aggressive.

As for established music companies such as Lige, Mingfeng, Gelin, Haishan, and Xinge, they mainly seek stability, and most of them have a cooperative relationship with singers and musicians rather than a superior-subordinate relationship.

So although they also have some judges and scouts on the scene, they are not so urgent, they just send out a business card to introduce.

Of course, this may also be because he is proud of being in a big company and feels that his name is famous enough. Li Yong will send it to his door when he hears the name.

In fact, most of Wanwan's music companies began to take shape in large numbers in the 70s.

It also borrowed from the European and American pop music industry system, and a large number of campus folk singers began to enter the pop music market as producers and songwriters.

Most of the songs at that time still adopted the operating concept of separation of production and sales, and singers directly handed over the finished products to record companies for distribution, mainly to spread and promote campus folk songs and popular songs in Mandarin and Taiwanese.

Eighty years later, new music companies such as Rolling Stones, UFO, Polygram, Dianjiang, and Himalaya have joined the Taiwan music industry market.

Throughout the 80s, there were more than 500 record companies, and more than 50 of them had a one-stop operation mechanism of production, distribution and promotion.

These companies have adopted the concept of album-style planning, unified production, taxation and payment, and the introduction of European and American marketing methods. In addition to the sale of records and tapes, the rise of various promotion methods such as concerts and rankings.

They made popular music become a cross-media product, and peripheral products such as celebrity photos, posters, magazines, etc. also entered the market together.

The "targeted" market segment for singers and songs makes the music style diverse and closely follows the trend.

As a result, the concept of self-entertainment, pursuit of ideals and values ​​in the "folk song era" has degenerated, and it has been replaced by purposeful and motivated commercial behavior.

Fine planning and tailor-made became an important mode of record production, making the creation and production of crooked pop music reach its peak during this period.

Moreover, the "Copyright Law" has been actively discussed and drafted in the past two years. This proposal has been passed long ago, and it is only a matter of time before it is promulgated and implemented, perhaps in the past two years.

The protection of copyright can effectively curb piracy, which also means that the spring of the recording industry is coming, and it will definitely boost the development of this industry.

And Li Yong is also in such a critical period, so his identity as a singer-songwriter has received more attention.

And "The Outer World", a "new song" that still has the shadow of a folk song, but also has popular elements, can so easily impress the producers of these music companies, so that they come to compete for it.

Just like the scouts that Li Yong thought, they were actually the producers of various music companies, big and small. If they were scouts, they would be more cheeky and directly pester them.

But this is also because on such an occasion, it is impossible to allow people like scouts to come in, so they must be sent by regular companies, and they are also tacitly allowed to contact them in the audience.

The rematch is to select the finalists, so it will be more formal and stricter than the audition, and the results will not be announced so quickly on the spot.

As for the contestants after the performance, of course, it is not good to leave immediately, because there may be group photos and small gifts afterward. After all, many people have traveled long distances, and there are prizes for participation.

So it was not officially over until all the participants in the rematch had finished their performances, and then there was a free time for everyone to communicate with each other.

At this time, it's time for those judges to go out together. They themselves represent the major music companies in Wanwan, and they are also well-known musicians in the industry, so they have the status and qualifications to sit here.

But when necessary, he will definitely help his company's interests.

Unexpectedly, the Rolling Stone judge immediately took aim at Li Yong.

But this time someone was faster than him——

"Hello, I'm from UFO Records..." The person who spoke was a fair-skinned and beautiful young woman, wearing glasses and a small suit with an intellectual temperament.

She is not a judge, nor did she run over to stuff her business card like those "star scouts" just now. Instead, she waited until all the contestants had finished their performances before running to Li Yong immediately.

First he introduced himself, and then he asked with a smile, "Do you know UFO Records? You should know Su Rui, right?"

"Su Rui, is she from your company?"

"That's right, do you like listening to her songs?"

"Well, I like it very much. I think her singing is so resonant, and it's easy to cry..."

"Haha, this is her style. Every singer has a different style. Just like the song you just had, it has an inexplicable, lazy tone."

"Hmm!" At this time, the boss of Rolling Stone came over with a sullen face, and directly inserted in very rudely, "little friend Li Yong, are you from Taipei?"

"Um, I came from Xinbei, and now I'm staying at my uncle's friend's house." Li Yong looked at the two people's eyes as if they had collided with each other, and their faces were not very good-looking, and he felt a little puzzled.

At this time, the representative of Rolling Stone stabbed the representative of the flying saucer and said: "Some people have developed a little bit more smoothly recently, and their tails are raised to the sky. Some people don't know the heights of the sky..."

The representative of UFO immediately responded mercilessly: "It's nothing for young people to make public. I'm afraid that some people will start to grow old when they are still young, and their words will be old-fashioned."

"you!"

Li Yong noticed that there were people watching this side, and those who wanted to come to look for him hurriedly avoided this scene, as if they knew something inside.

He didn't want to become a place for these two people to vent their personal anger in front of him, so he quickly persuaded with a smile: "You two, I know why you are here, but can we talk calmly first. I don't know anything, and I am afraid of being deceived, so I listen more and watch more.

"But you are like this, with all due respect, I may have to avoid it first..."

"You don't have to avoid it, there are other people who should avoid it!"

Yep, here we go again...

"Forget it, let her tell you first." The Rolling Stone representative smiled at this time, as if he had gained some advantage.

Only then did the young woman with beautiful eyes realize that she seemed to have been tricked. However, looking at Li Yong's face, she calmed down and simply got off the slope and said to Li Yong: "How about we find a restaurant to chat slowly, Li Yong?" Yong, you must be hungry too, right?"
