Chapter 193 Cooperation comes to you!
Deng Lijun and Xu Xiaofeng came over, and Zhong Yuemin also stood up. Before he could introduce them, Deng Lijun stretched out her right hand.
"I suppose this must be Mr. Zhong Yuemin? It's nice to see you."
Zhong Yuemin also extended his hand, and the two shook hands. It was soft and smooth. He looked at each other. His appearance was not stunning, but he was pure and lovely, a kind of girl next door, beautiful and pleasant, very pleasing to the eye. Then he shook hands with Xu Xiaofeng, another future queen of Hong Kong Island. To be fair, of the two, Xu Xiaofeng's current achievements and fame were definitely not as good as Deng Lijun's. Deng Lijun debuted in 1966, released a solo album in 66, and began participating in various commercial performances. Xu Xiaofeng also participated in the "Hong Kong Island Nightingale" singing competition in 67 and won the championship with the song "Love Fire". In 1969, she released her first album "Wall" and entered the music scene, but in terms of fame, she was still slightly inferior.
The guests at the nearby tables were envious and jealous when they saw the two beautiful and talented female singers paying so much attention to the young man and staying close to him. They wondered who this young man was.
This Mr. Zhu's son? Not like that.
"Mr. Zhong, the song you wrote for me, Sweet Honey, has a soft and beautiful melody, and is catchy. It's really nice to listen to and suits me very well."
"Mr. Zhong, mine is the same. The song 'Girl with Wings' has a cheerful, lively, playful and smart rhythm. It's completely different from the songs I sang in the past, but I like it too."
"Mr. Zhong, excuse me, did you really write this song?"
Zhong Yuemin said, "You probably haven't heard it anywhere else, right?"
Deng Lijun said:
"I don't mean anything by that. I'm just curious. Judging from your appearance, I think you're about the same age as us. I heard from Mr. Zhu and Mr. Zhou that you're also from the mainland. Hmm... well, how should I put it? Creating a hit song requires a specific environment and nutrients to be nurtured. I'm not looking down on the mainland, but I feel that the environment there is difficult... Do you understand what I mean?"
Zhong Yuemin nodded and started to make up a story.
"I've loved literature and art since I was a child, so I got into music early on. Didn't Zhu Long and Chang Li tell you? Besides music, I'm also a writer. I've written several best-selling novels. Maybe I just have a talent for literature and art."
Xu Xiaofeng said:
"Mr. Zhong, it's a rare visit to Hong Kong Island this time. I wonder if you have any new songs?"
The two girls' eyes were bright and full of hope, as if they were going to squeeze him dry. The reason why he was able to sign these two was actually because of his songs. Otherwise, why would people sign with his record company, which has no reputation at all? There was a slightly "weird" additional condition in the contract, which required him to write a song for someone every year.
Zhong Yuemin said:
"There are quite a few songs, don't worry, it's written in black and white in our contract. If one party breaches the contract, you can automatically terminate the contract. I'll have Zhu Long give you the songs later."
"Can you sing for us now?"
Xu Xiaofeng couldn't wait to explain, "Mr. Zhong, it's not that we don't believe you, it's just... we really want to know. Do you know what her desire is for songs as a singer?"
"Okay, then I'll sing a cappella." He was somewhat helpless. You guys are too anxious.
"Miss Xu, sing your song first. The name of the song is "Thousands of Songs".
"Slowly looking back, I see the nights that once belonged to us. You are still the bright sunshine that graces my heart... Even if a thousand songs float along my distant path in the future, even if a thousand stars shine brighter than the moon tonight, none can compare to the beauty of this night, and none can erase the thoughts I have tonight, because I don't know when I will be able to sing with you again."
How about this song? I created it just for you."
"It sounds good, it sounds good!"
An expert can tell whether a song is good or not. When Xu Xiaofeng heard the first few lines, she felt that this song would definitely be popular. The feeling was different, and it was even more classic than the previous song "Girl with Wings".
"Mr. Zhong, I didn't expect your Cantonese is so good."
"Mr. Zhong, what about mine? What song is mine?"
At the same time, Deng Lijun couldn't help but interrupt and urge him, her eyes full of desire and need, which made his heartstrings plucked hard, and he was really afraid that he could not control himself.
"Don't worry, Miss Deng, you also have it, the song is called "Late Autumn",
"In this late autumn with falling maple leaves, I finally realized that you are not everything in my life. Looking back suddenly, it is a forced smile. So many past events are drifting away in the wind..."
After the song was finished, Teresa Teng was intoxicated. This was the song she had been searching for. It was charming, gentle, and a little sad, like a spring breeze blowing through the heart, making people addicted and intoxicated.
While several people were talking here, the dinner also started. Mr. Shao came on stage and said a few words, which lasted only five or six minutes. When he left the stage, there was applause. Then a female host wearing a red festive cheongsam with the slits almost open to the waist, revealing two pairs of white thighs, came on stage to host the show. The audience ate and watched. The performers were all guests attending the banquet. It was not that particular, just to have a lively New Year.
Halfway through the banquet, Xu Xiaofeng and Deng Lijun also went on stage to perform. What he didn't expect was that the song they sang a cappella was the one he had just written for them. It was really amazing. With such great skills, they not only memorized the lyrics, but also sang them perfectly, with every detail accurate. They sang much better than him.
The guests in the audience were also hearing it for the first time. Most of those present here are from the entertainment industry and are experts. They can tell the quality of the songs by just listening to them.
The president of a record company stood up and asked, "Is this a new song?" They both admitted it generously and even invited the composer to come up and show his face. He originally didn't want to show his face, after all, his identity was sensitive. After he came down from the stage, many colleagues from record companies came to toast him, calling him "Boss Zhong" and "President Zhong" all the time. It was very enthusiastic. He also knew what these people were planning.
I guess I'm thinking about his songs.
The second half of the dinner was basically a social gathering. People left their seats, holding their glasses, and chatted with others. No matter what era it was, 80 to 90 percent of Chinese business deals were done over drinks.
Another person came over to him, and he thought it was a colleague.
"Hello, Mr. Zhong, I'm Zou Wenhuai from TVB."
Zhong Yuemin was stunned at first, wondering why this person was here. He was just thinking about looking for him, but he came to him on his own initiative. He quickly stood up and
"Hello, Mr. Zou, hello, come, have a seat!"
While Lisa was out for a social event, the seat was left empty.
Zou Wenhuai sat down and said:
"Mr. Zhong, you are so young, yet you have achieved such great accomplishments in music. It is truly admirable."
"Don't dare, don't dare!"
