Chapter 727: Digging for Talents

After a busy day of performances, Fei Xiang returned to his home.

His father is an American soldier and his mother is from Baodao. This combination was very common twenty or thirty years ago, but children born like this are looked down upon by many people.

But fortunately, Fei Xiang's mother was very capable and perseverant. Even after being abandoned by Fei Xiang's father, she persisted in working and raised Fei Xiang, so that he received a good education.

Fei Xiang is not that kind of naughty child. He was ostracized by some children since childhood and saw his mother's hardships, which made him very sensible. He received a scholarship to study in the United States and worked part-time to earn living expenses.

When he was in the United States, Fei Xiang knew that he had a good voice and often went to bars to sing and earn tips.

Now that he is about to graduate, he returned to Baodao originally to look for a job, but he couldn't find a suitable job for a while. He could only go to dance halls, bars and cafes every day to sing and dance. While making money, he wanted to be loved by others. Excavate.

If it really doesn't work, Fei Xiang can only take EMI's relatively demanding rookie contract first, and then slowly open up the situation first.

If it weren't for his mother who didn't want to leave, Fei Xiang would have wanted to develop in the United States. Although it was difficult to get ahead in Hollywood, he still had better opportunities.

"Axiang, there was a woman who called you just now. After I told you that you were not here, she said she would wait until you come back before calling again." When Fei Xiang came out to eat after taking a bath, Fei's mother said to her son.

"Oh, I don't know which company it is from." Fei Xiang shrugged a little unconcernedly, "They are very stingy people and want to tie me up like cheap labor. The number of calls I have received this month , it’s all like that.”

"Don't be impatient, just compare slowly." Fei's mother smiled, "Let's eat first before talking."

"good!"

As soon as Fei Xiang picked up the chopsticks, the phone at home rang.

After Baodao developed in the 1970s, at least in the Taibei area, telephones have become relatively common, and people with good conditions can also install home telephones.

Fei's mother installed the phone because her son often called back, and then Fei Xiang used it as the contact number for the company that submitted his resume.

After gesturing at the phone, Fei's mother signaled her son to pick it up quickly.

Fei Xiang stood up helplessly, walked over and picked up the phone: "Hello? Who are you looking for?"

"Ah...Hello, are you Mr. Fei Xiang?" A nice female voice came from the other side of the phone.

The voice she spoke was very gentle, and Fei Xiang felt familiar for a moment, as if he had heard this voice somewhere, more than once.

"Yes, I am Fei Xiang, may I ask who you are..."

"Great, I finally found you!" The woman on the other side of the phone cheered, "Hello, I'm Deng Lijun. I'm taking the liberty to call you..."

"What!?" Fei Xiang was stunned, "Who do you think you are?"

"I'm Deng Lijun." The woman on the other side of the phone laughed softly, "I'm calling you from the United States..."

"boom!"

Fei Xiang hung up the phone directly, turned around and walked back to the dinner table.

"Who is it? Why did you hang up the phone all of a sudden?" Fei's mother frowned and said, "How rude."

"It's a liar. She said she was Ms. Teresa Deng, haha!" Fei Xiang laughed.

"Hey, don't tell me." Fei's mother recalled in surprise, "No wonder when I answered the phone just now, I felt that this voice was very familiar. It really looked like Ms. Teresa Deng's voice!"

"It doesn't mean it is. Let's eat!" Fei Xiang picked up the bowls and chopsticks.

He didn't believe at all that this call was made by Deng Lijun.

Who is Deng Lijun?

The pride of Baodao!

The world's number one Chinese female singer! !

When Fei Xiang was in the United States, he heard Americans singing Teresa Teng's songs every day. Many Americans admired this Chinese female singer, which made him feel proud.

So when he met such a female liar who dared to pretend to be Teresa Deng, he didn't want to say anything more to her. He had already behaved well enough not to curse.

Fei Xiang and Fei's mother quickly put the matter aside and began chatting while eating. However, not long after waiting, the phone rang again.

Fei Xiang didn't want to answer the phone at first, but seeing his mother wanting to put down her chopsticks to answer the phone first, she hurriedly ran to pick it up in advance, "Hello?"

"Axiang? I'm Zhang Cui from EMI!" There was still a woman's voice on the other side of the phone.

"Oh, hello, Miss Zhang!" Fei Xiang's expression softened.

"Why did you hang up the phone with Miss Deng just now? This is very rude!" Zhang Cui said to him.

Fei Xiang was a little confused. He didn't understand yet, "What is it, Miss Deng?"

"Miss Deng Lijun!" Zhang Cui frowned and said, "I gave your phone number to Miss Deng just now. She came to me to ask for your contact information, but you hung up, so she asked me to come and talk to you. Just so you don’t think she is a liar.”

"Really...really Miss Deng Lijun!?"

Fei Xiang started to stutter. Thinking of the gentle voice just now, he was in a daze. He didn't even know what Zhang Cui said next.

Then he kept waiting in front of the phone, not even paying attention to his mother's call for dinner.

Fortunately, Lijun Deng didn't keep him waiting. A few minutes later, she called again, "Hello, Mr. Fei Xiang?"

"Ah! Miss Deng! Are you Miss Deng? I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Fei Xiang apologized awkwardly, "I didn't know it was you who called me. I just..."

"Okay, no need to apologize anymore, I understand! If someone suddenly said that to me, I would feel strange and wouldn't believe it." Deng Lijun said with a smile, "Let's get down to business first, okay?"

"Okay!" Fei Xiang patted his chest and said to his idol: "Miss Deng, if you need anything, just ask! I will definitely try my best to help!"

He was also dizzy.

I didn't think about Deng Lijun's identity and status. How could she ask a young boy like him for help?

Deng Lijun didn't think too much and said softly: "My friend Yin Jun...well, it's Yin Jun who wrote songs for me, you know, right?"

"I know! Young Master Jun!" Yin Jun is very famous in Baodao and even among Chinese people around the world, and Fei Xiang naturally knows that.

"He recently read some of your information and got to know you a bit. He thinks you are a good fit for his newly established Qilin Record Company. He wants to sign you. What do you think?" Deng Lijun said, "Of course. , the conditions must be good, and you also know that Mr. Yin Jun is not a stingy person."

Yin Jun actually took a fancy to him and felt that he had great potential! ?

Fei Xiang suddenly felt a sense of happiness welling up in his heart.

Everyone knows that Yin Jun is a genius, especially the Chinese.

Fei Xiang studied drama performance and music concurrently, so he knew how outstanding Yin Jun was in these two fields.

Take music as an example. I don’t know how many people have tried their best to get a song by Yin Jun. Even foreign singers are like this, but there are still few people who can succeed. Except for Deng Lijun, who only wins Yin Jun’s favor. , it seems that only a singer named Leslie Cheung in Xiangjiang can get many of Yin Jun's songs.

If Yin Jun wanted to sign him and give him a few songs, wouldn't he become famous very quickly?

Fei Xiang has always been pursuing music, and he certainly hopes that he can meet a good talent.

Isn't Yin Jun the best Chinese music player in the world now?

"I know it's difficult for you to decide rashly. Why don't you go to Xiangjiang in two days and talk to Ajun?" Seeing that he didn't speak, Deng Lijun suggested, "There will be several people in Baodao then. We go there together, even if we can't sign a contract, you can just go and have a look, they will be responsible for all your expenses."

"Ms. Deng, do you also want to join Mr. Jun's company?" Fei Xiang suddenly asked.

"Yes." Teresa Deng replied simply: "After I finish my work in the United States, I will go back to Xiangjiang to join Ajun's company."

"Okay, I'll go over and sign a contract with Mr. Jun this time!" Fei Xiang made an impulsive decision.

"Well, don't worry, Ajun won't make you regret it." Deng Lijun was not a shy person, so she said to him happily.

In fact, Queen of Heaven’s sister didn’t know why Yin Jun asked her to try her best to persuade this young man named Fei Xiang to join Qilin Records. But her lover’s request, with Teresa Deng’s soft character, naturally she had to work hard to achieve.

She didn't just make a phone call.

Li Zhiheng, Luo Dayou, Li Zongsheng, including Tan Yonglin, Deng Lijun called them all.

With her reputation as the first Chinese-speaking queen, Li Zhiheng, a songwriter, naturally readily agreed to visit Xiangjiang.

Luo Dayou was a little confused, but he also excitedly agreed to go to Xiangjiang. He had long wanted to quit his job as a doctor, but now he finally had the best excuse and reason.

Not to mention Li Zongsheng, who was currently singing and writing songs silently. With such a good way out, he naturally agreed without hesitation.

Tan Yonglin was overjoyed and said that he would return to Hong Kong immediately and that the contract with PolyGram would not be a problem at all.

Such five talents that Yin Jun needed agreed so easily to come to Xiangjiang to talk. In fact, they were close to success.

On the one hand, the credit certainly belongs to Teresa Teng. There are not many people in the singing industry in Baodao who would refuse the diva's personal invitation.

On the other hand, the credit is due to Yin Jun's reputation as a genius and his consistent good reputation. Of course, the most important thing is his musical talent, which has been unanimously recognized by everyone.

People who are engaged in music and those who are engaged in literature and art are actually the same. On the way to the pursuit of perfection, they don’t like to be influenced by money or anything else. Even if they are just for food, they don’t necessarily think highly of those bosses.

But it's a completely different story if the boss is a genius they admire.

Even with Huang Zhan's conceited character, he would not dare to say that he surpassed Yin Jun in musical talent, let alone those who have not yet grown into a generation of masters or singers.

In fact, this is also related to the fact that the new generation of pop music in Baodao has not yet developed.

The two masters who promoted the development of Baodao pop music happened to be Luo Dayou and Li Zongsheng invited by Yin Jun.

Before them, although Baodao also had a large number of singers, they were in the midst of a trend of folk songs and campus-style singing songs. Even Teresa Teng only sang folk minors. Really modern pop music was firmly occupied by a group of singers from Xiangjiang. .

Especially in this life, Zhang Guorong, promoted by Yin Jun, has gained an unparalleled reputation in Baodao.

Originally, Zhang Guorong was a singer-level person who only appeared in decades. If he came to compete with Baodao's singers at this time, especially in the absence of Teresa Teng, there would be no suspense about his victory.

It is precisely because the musicians and singers in Baodao feel that they are not as strong as Xiangjiang, so Yin Jun recruits them and they are willing to go.

If the music scene in Baodao is very strong and the music scene in Xiangjiang is very weak, only an idiot would run to Xiangjiang. If you want to recruit me, come to Baodao yourself!

Well, basically, the Chinese music scene after 2000 was such a trend.

Jay Chou swept across Asia, making Hong Kong singers hope to go to the treasure island for better development.
