Superstars start from HK Entertainment

Chapter 527 Big-name agent Chen Shufen

"I hope, as you said, the response to this album will be good!"

Leslie Cheung finally agreed to He Jin's idea.

However, it is not difficult to see from his words that he himself is still skeptical about the success of this album.

"Don't worry, I have confidence!"

He Jin is very confident about the album "Beloved".

In his previous life, Leslie Cheung released this album on July 7, 1995, which included a total of 10 songs, including "Chasing", "Red Beauty and White Hair", "Midnight Song" and other songs.

In 1995, Leslie Cheung won the 18th Top Ten Chinese Golden Songs Annual Best-selling Singer Award with this album.

In 1995, the annual sales of "Beloved" across Asia exceeded 2 million, and its annual sales in Hong Kong exceeded six platinums, ranking first in the annual record sales list announced by the IFPI Hong Kong Chapter.

In addition, "Beloved" sold more than 500,000 copies in South Korea, setting a then-record sales record for Chinese-language records in South Korea.

This is data and various records from previous lives.

Therefore, after knowing that He Jin had no plans to prepare a new song for Leslie Cheung, she immediately began to question He Jin.

She has a deep connection with He Jin's company Huaxing Records.

"The new album has been decided. He Jin plans to produce a new album based on songs from movies that I have starred in!"

Just like Jacky Cheung's "Kiss Goodbye".

"There are no new songs, he means old songs with new twists!"

The Hong Kong singers discovered by her include Anita Mui, Lu Fang, Du Dewei, Leslie Cheung, Shum Dianxia and others.

"Let's talk about this after the album comes out! Sister Chen, you try to contact Rolling Stone as little as possible these days.

A person who holds a pivotal position in the music world.

After a while, she spoke: "When I asked you to sign under the Rolling Stones, there are many musicians such as Luo Dayou and Li Zongsheng. You don't have to worry about the new song when you come back to the music scene. You really want to collaborate with He Jin.

This type of contract has very few restrictions on the singer.

In front of the hotel, a red Ferrari was parked on the roadside.

But he is just a stingy person, and he simply cannot write good songs for others..."

Leslie Cheung knew that he had signed a contract with China Star Records.

After talking about this, it was already getting late. Leslie Cheung said there was still more drama and left first.

In addition, He Jin’s reputation as a genius is not in vain, I think we should give him some confidence.”

To say she is famous is an understatement.

After Leslie Cheung got into the car, she asked as she drove away.

And now, after He Jin's classic songs have bombarded the market for several consecutive years, the data of the entire record industry has improved a lot.

In addition, after these songs are included in the new album, they will definitely be re-arranged and lyrics written.

Leslie Cheung went out and got into the red Ferrari.

In a large sense, this can be said to be a new song.

After all, the album hasn't been produced yet, so if we leave it like this, it will have a bad impact on my cooperation with Huaxing Records.

Chen Shufen looked at Leslie Cheung and said.

Leslie Cheung didn't want to cause He Jin's dissatisfaction by contacting Rolling Stone privately.

The subsequent cooperation will last three years.

In addition, after Leslie Cheung retired from the music scene in the past few years, he did not just withdraw from awards like Alan Tam, but completely retired.

Indeed, he is talented and has proven himself in Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea, Europe and the United States.

In addition, she has also served as the agent for Leslie Cheung, Jacky Cheung, Anita Mui, Shum Dianxia, ​​Leslie Cheung, Chen Songling, Zhou Huajian, Luo Wen, Li Zhi, Grasshopper, Huang Minhao and others.

Chen Shufen.

"How was the talk?"

Chen Shufen said nothing.

If He Jin were here right now, he would definitely know this woman.

Later, in 1982, "China Star" established a record department, and she was one of the leaders of the record department at that time.

Leslie Cheung nodded and said.

After all, the songs from Leslie Cheung's movies have already been released.

Although liquidated damages will still be paid, relatively speaking, the amount of liquidated damages will be smaller.

If a singer is dissatisfied with the record company, he has the right to terminate the contract.

But because Leslie Cheung announced his retirement from the music scene, almost all of these songs were only movie inserts and theme song versions, and no records were released.

This is also one of the perks of being a top singer.

After a pause, Leslie Cheung continued: "I have agreed with his idea. Once he gets the copyright, we can start preparing for recording."

You know, the Rolling Stones are very eager for you, and I think they would be willing to pay the liquidated damages for you."

This woman may be ordinary in the eyes of the public, but in the Hong Kong music scene, she is famous.

In her eyes, Rolling Stone is the best company.

But he told me something and I decided to give it a try.

She has recruited almost half of the singers in the entire Hong Kong music scene.

Leslie Cheung's contract with China Star Records is undoubtedly top-notch.

If Chen Shufen gets into trouble with Hua Xing, it will be detrimental to his subsequent work.

I remember there is a clause in your contract that if both parties have objections to the cooperation, they can switch to another company, right?

Let's just see how well this album is received.

In addition, he also promised me that if this album is not successful, he will immediately produce the songs he wrote for me in the follow-up."

"Originally, I thought he was stingy and uncooperative by not writing new songs for me.

Hearing this, Chen Shufen frowned, "You mean, she won't write a new song for you?"

Leslie Cheung didn't hide anything and said directly.

In a previous life, the album's annual sales were around four million.

Therefore, he took the initiative to speak kindly to He Jin.

Therefore, He Jin believes that as long as all aspects are operated properly, the album's data will only rise.

Chen Shufen has always disagreed with Leslie Cheung signing with China Star.

He Jin and Leslie Cheung talked about the new album for a while, and the two agreed to start recording Leslie Cheung's new album immediately after China Star obtained all the copyrights for the songs in the new album.

Singers' signing contracts have always been hierarchical.

There was a middle-aged woman in her forties sitting in the car.

“Whether it will be successful or not is not decided, it depends on the market reaction.

But now, this figure has risen by a quarter, reaching more than 5 million.

She was in charge of Hong Kong's "China Star Entertainment Co., Ltd." in 1973.

In Xiangjiang right now, I don’t know how many people are looking forward to him releasing a record soon!

This can be seen from the fact that China Star Records receives a bunch of letters every week urging Leslie Cheung to release an album.

Therefore, He Jin absolutely believes that this album will be successful.

He has completely retired, and now that he is back, fans have higher expectations for him.

If the response is not good, how about we terminate the contract immediately?

Although the new album plan prepared by He Jin for him did not meet his expectations, the album has not yet been released and everything is unknown. It seems too cold and heartless to start looking for a new home now.

He had a good relationship with He Jin in private, and he didn't want them to become strangers because of this.

"Don't worry, I'm not that stupid. I won't mess around until the word-of-mouth sales of the new album come out."

Chen Shufen can be the manager of many big-name singers, so she naturally understands these things. Therefore, she knows what to do without Leslie Cheung having to tell her.
