1993 My China Entertainment Age

Chapter 49: Exclusive interview with "Contemporary Music Circle", first appearance on magazine cover!

The next day, the sun rose as usual.

When Jiang Xiaofeng woke up, it was already noon, but he did not see Taohong in bed.

Just when she was wondering where Taohong was going, Taohong took the key herself, opened the door and walked in, carrying a bag of packed meals in her hand.

Seeing that Jiang Xiaofeng was awake, Taohong asked with a smile: "Have you brushed your teeth and washed your face?"

Jiang Xiaofeng said: "Not yet, I just got up."

"Hurry up and brush your teeth and wash your face. We're ready for dinner."

"Oh," Jiang Xiaofeng went to the bathroom weakly.

Although he had slept for five or six hours in the morning, Jiang Xiaofeng still felt a little tired because he stayed up all night last night.

Taohong, on the other hand, was in high spirits, her skin was moist and shiny, as if nothing had happened, and her complexion became even better.

However, one advantage of Wang Jinghua's meticulousness is that it is not easy to make mistakes, whether it is with Jiang Xiaofeng or several other contracted artists.

Jiang Xiaofeng thought for a while and said, "I think Dou Wei is very talented. His music is very advanced and has his own characteristics."

From walking around the streets with 800 yuan in his pocket at the beginning, to a fixed monthly salary of 5,000 yuan, and now becoming a "high-income group" with a monthly income of tens of thousands, Wang Jing has achieved qualitative success in just a few years.

leap.

Obviously, compared with more than a dozen previous cover figures, Jiang Xiaofeng still lags far behind in terms of fame.

Although Jiang Xiaofeng is still a newcomer in the music scene, having debuted for less than a year, his ability to accept interviews is excellent, and he is not slick, but sincere and simple, and of course also has some wit.

The "King of Western Singers" Wang Luobin, who appeared on the cover with the Four Heavenly Kings, Yang Yuying and Wei Wei, and Li Na, a singer who sang more than 200 songs for more than 160 film and television dramas, was rarely mentioned again.

Out of guilt for Taohong, Jiang Xiaofeng still sighed with self-blame: "Well, it's all my fault for not taking your feelings into consideration..."

After the interview, Jiang Xiaofeng cooperated with the photographer of "Contemporary Music" to take a set of fashionable photos to be used as cover material for the next issue of the magazine.

…

In fact, these days, except for Zheng Jun and the "Four Young Masters of Magic Rock", as well as the Tang Dynasty Band and the Black Panther Band, most rock music players are quite poor, especially the unknown rock musicians, who usually don't have many performances.

There is no previous meal, no next meal, just one meal is a meal.

Perhaps because he consumed too much last night, Jiang Xiaofeng had a great appetite and praised while eating: "It tastes pretty good."

In the following period, when Jiang Xiaofeng was dead, he practiced piano and wrote new songs in his room. Only when Wang Jinghua came to see him did he go out to work.

Starting from Yang Yuying in the first period, to Jacky Cheung in the second period, to Wang Fei in the third period, Naying in the fourth period, Andy Lau in the fifth period, Zhou Huajian in the sixth period, Pan Meichen in the seventh period, Lin Zhiying in the eighth period...

Jiang Xiaofeng is still very satisfied with Wang Jinghua's manager. As long as she is here, he basically doesn't have to worry.

The only thing that remains unchanged is that Wang Jinghua will still ride her purple and blue Phoenix brand bicycle to meet clients, attract resources for contracted artists, and accept commercial performances.

When asked by reporters about his feelings about becoming famous at a young age, Jiang Xiaofeng also said modestly: "I feel that I am a very lucky person. I was able to get the support of so many fans and friends for my first album. I am really grateful for everyone's love.

"

By the way, because of signing Jiang Xiaofeng, a popular singer, Wang Jinghua has also reached a new peak in her career as a manager.

"Including my music style, it is not just rock and roll, nor is it just folk songs. I hope that my music, like my life, is as colorful as my life. I don't want to limit my life and creation to a certain one.

type."

Of course, Jiang Xiaofeng is not a stingy person. He also invited the Overload band, Zheng Jun, Gao Xiaosong and others to dinner. The one he invited the most was the Overload band who collaborated on the album "Jiang Xiaofeng".

In short, besides talking about resources, Wang Jinghua still acted like a "nanny" and worried about Jiang Xiaofeng.

After all, he was a young man. After eating and drinking, Jiang Xiaofeng immediately returned to full health.

Lao Lang admired Jiang Xiaofeng's talent very much and even asked Jiang Xiaofeng to have dinner with him. However, Jiang Xiaofeng went there once and found it boring and too noisy. Every time Lao Lang invited guests to dinner, there would be at least ten or twenty people.

It is no exaggeration to say that it opened the door for many people to understand the entertainment industry.

Strictly speaking, Jiang Xiaofeng is not a gregarious person, and he is not willing to hang out in circles. When Gao Xiaosong, Zheng Jun and others went to the bar, they also asked Jiang Xiaofeng to go with them, but he basically refused, and later they simply stopped calling.

.

The reporter then asked: "What about Zhang Chu?"

Jiang Xiaofeng said: "Zhang Chu, I think his lyrics are very well written, very literary, like a poet."

Although this magazine was founded less than a year ago, it has quickly become the most influential entertainment magazine in the Chinese music scene with its keen sense of fashion, and has launched the slogan "The First Issue of Trendy Music"!

When the organizer saw that the artists were performing well, they were willing to cooperate more. In this way, Wang Jinghua could firmly grasp all the resources in her hands.

"I..." Jiang Xiaofeng's words came to his lips and he swallowed them back.

Taohong buried her face in Jiang Xiaofeng's arms and said in a voice like a mosquito: "Well, it still hurts a little..."

"Then you eat more, and I will give you half of my rice." Seeing that Jiang Xiaofeng was eating with gusto, Taohong picked up the lunch box and chopsticks, divided half of the rice, and poured it into Jiang Xiaofeng's lunch box.

It is worth mentioning that since its inception, "Contemporary Music Magazine" has almost every time invited a singer to shoot the cover of the magazine. The singers who can be on the cover of the magazine are all well-known and popular singers.

September 26, morning.

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Xiaofeng expressed his opinion on He Yong: "I think He Yong's music has the unique charm of old Yanjing, simple and true."

"What's wrong?" Jiang Xiaofeng's hands were held by Taohong, unable to move at all, and then he asked doubtfully.

No matter what kind of activities Jiang Xiaofeng wants to go out for, Wang Jinghua will prepare everything, from booking a hotel to arranging a pick-up and drop-off, to the temperature of bath water and three meals a day.

This year is the year when the "Four Heavenly Kings" are at their peak. The four of them have almost monopolized all the awards of pop music in Hong Kong. Unsurprisingly, the first issue of "Contemporary Music" devoted a large space to introducing the four people's music.

Reporter: "Many fans think that your rock music is not pure enough. What do you think of this problem? Do you think you are a pure rock singer?"

Because Lao Lang was the first to get rich among this group of people and he was very generous, he often treated him to "big meals". There were many people who liked him, and there were a lot of people who came to cheer for him. Almost all of them were people from the rock circle, and they were generally more shameless.

thick.

Jiang Xiaofeng asked with concern: "Why not? Are you uncomfortable?"

Under her management, the artists' lives and work are in order, their mental state is always very full, and the effects of attending events will naturally be very good.

One portion of chicken with mushrooms, one portion of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, one portion of braised pig's feet, one portion of stir-fried Chinese cabbage, the soup is lotus root and pork ribs soup, four simple dishes and one soup, that's today's lunch.

Jiang Xiaofeng thought about it seriously and replied: "In my own words, I hope that in the future, I can try different types of music. I don't want my music to be stereotyped. I hope my music can be rich and colorful..."

Jiang Xiaofeng asked Taohong: "Are you enough?"

In the room, Jiang Xiaofeng hugged Tao Hong for a while and quickly entered a state of preparation for war. Tao Hong also smelled the danger and hurriedly hugged Jiang Xiaofeng to prevent him from doing anything wrong.

Taohong said: "That's enough. I can't eat that much. You can eat more."

Taohong said with shame and anger: "Oh, why are you here again? I don't blame you. Why are you always apologizing to me? Don't do this in the future..."

"Okay, okay, I listen to you, I won't say anything anymore," Jiang Xiaofeng said, no longer talking nonsense, and just hugged Taohong quietly.

Jiang Xiaofeng also invited Lao Lang to have dinner alone, just the two of them. During the meal, Lao Lang excused himself to use the toilet and settled the bill secretly, and he never invited Lao Lang to dinner again.

Speaking of the magazine "Contemporary Music", this is a magazine from Haerbing. On January 1, 1994, "Contemporary Music" was first published, and the cover of the first issue was "Queen of Sweet Songs" Yang Yuying.

Reporter: “What do you think are the characteristics of each of you, the Four Magic Rock Masters, and your music? Let’s talk about Dou Wei first.”

"Not today..." Taohong said hesitantly.

Jiang Xiaofeng said frankly: "I don't think so. Moreover, I have never said that I am a rock singer, and I have never said that I am a folk singer. I think I have a rock side and a non-rock side."

Due to Jiang Xiaofeng's frankness and authenticity, this interview went very smoothly, and both parties had a harmonious exchange almost throughout the process.

The reporter smiled and said: "Finally, let's evaluate yourself. Tell us, what kind of musician do you think you are? Or, what kind of musician do you hope you can become?"

Jiang Xiaofeng accepted an exclusive interview with "Contemporary Music Circle" magazine at a hotel near Huiyuan Apartment.

With Jiang Xiaofeng's current popularity and reputation, being able to become the cover star of "Contemporary Music" is mainly thanks to her manager Wang Jinghua.

You know, for the interview and cover opportunity in "Contemporary Music Circle", Wang Jinghua helped him negotiate with the magazine editor many times before finally negotiating the resources.

Moreover, Wang Jinghua was extremely kind to Jiang Xiaofeng this time, because she hired the photographers and reporters of "Contemporary Music Circle" from Harbing at her own expense.

Of course, Jiang Xiaofeng was also very upbeat and did not disappoint Wang Jinghua. He completed this cooperation with "Contemporary Music Circle" magazine very professionally and politely.
