    Ever since that meeting with Zheng Donghan from PolyGram Records, Chen Yihua had some ideas about the record company.  Now the four songs composed by Chen Yihua are very popular in Southeast Asia, and their popularity is out of control. The royalties of just four songs have made Chen Yihua a crazy profit of 3 to 4 million Hong Kong dollars. In fact, the music in Hong Kong is generally of a higher standard.  The general fee for a producer to fill in the lyrics of a song is only between 10,000 and 20,000 Hong Kong dollars. A music producer as profitable as Chen Yihua is unique in Hong Kong. Of course, he can make so much money because he has  Deng Lijun and Xu Guanjie acted as guarantees, and the ownership rights of the four songs belonged to Chen Yihua.  However, in 1976, the cost of song ownership accounted for a very low proportion of the cost of the record. According to Chen Yihua's conservative estimate, the approximate sales volume of the four PolyGram records may have reached more than 60 million Hong Kong dollars.  In 1976, along with the sales of records, record companies would also release cassettes. PolyGram is a large international company, and of course there are conditions for releasing song cassettes. The two records of Deng Lijun and Xu Guanjie have not been taken off the shelves and are still on the market.  As the market continues to heat up, even if costs are removed, Chen Yihua can imagine how much profit PolyGram has made during this period.  To be honest, when he thought of this, Chen Yihua felt very jealous. Although several of his companies made money, they could not make so much money in a short time. Tianyi Telecom and the two companies could make money but also spend money. Didu made money.  It's awesome, but its advantage is that it can make a steady stream of money. It's impossible to get such a large amount of money in a short period of time like PolyGram.  Some people say that the richer people are, the stingier they are.  Chen Yihua feels like he is like this now, seeing PolyGram making so much money.  Chen Yihua always felt that he had made great contributions and felt that the wealth of PolyGram should belong to him. The more he thought about it, the more unbalanced he felt. Gradually, he came up with the idea of ??starting a record company of his own. Ever since he met Zheng Donghan, Chen Yihua¡¯s  The idea became stronger.  ??Maybe it is difficult for others to start a record company, but for Chen Yihua, it is not difficult at all. A record company must have a recording studio.  A slightly more successful record company must have its own singer. Who is Chen Yihua? First, he has no shortage of funds. Second, he has many classic songs in his mind. Third, he knows many singers who are not yet famous.  If you really want to set up a record company, you don¡¯t need Chen Yihua, the big boss, to do it yourself. Now he has a lot of talents under his command. John Briscoll is already in the management level of Universal Company.  Universal also has its own record company. Although John is not in charge of this aspect, he knows the record company very well. In addition, Chen Yihua has the help of Li Xiujing and Apple in the United States, so it is easy to obtain top-notch recording equipment.  Chen Yihua bought a three-story independent courtyard in Causeway Bay near Tin Hau. This courtyard used to be a music school.  The house is a bit old and the location is a bit off-center, but fortunately it is large and wide enough, and it has strong potential for appreciation.  When Chen Yihua¡¯s record company was established, its recording studio could be regarded as the most luxurious in Hong Kong.  It is the most well-equipped music studio. Chen Yihua not only asked the United States to purchase these advanced recording equipment.  He also purchased a vinyl record production line. Chen Yihua always likes one-stop service when running a company. It is not suitable for the record company to directly deal with tape processing when it is just established. However, it is not difficult for Chen Yihua to build a vinyl record production line.  Money makes things easier. This is absolutely true. After choosing the headquarters of a record company, Chen Yihua registered a company. Regarding the name of the record company, Chen Yihua further displayed his shameless piracy spirit. Rolling Stone Records, if  Is there any future musician who knows about Chen Yihua's shameless behavior? I guess most people will be so angry that they vomit blood. Rolling Stone Records is a Taiwanese record company founded by brothers Duan Zhongyi and Duan Zhongtan in 1980. The emergence of Rolling Stone Records is several years earlier than in history.  In the year, Chen Yihua could only say sorry in his heart to the two brothers Duan Zhongyi.  In order to facilitate management, Chen Yihua officially established Big Pineapple International Media and Culture Co., Ltd. Rolling Stone Records is a subsidiary of this company, and Chen Yihua's original Great World Cinema has also become a subsidiary of this company, and Big Pineapple Media and Culture Company's  The shares are divided into two, Nanchao Chen Fund owns 40% of the company, and Big Pineapple Media Investment Fund owns 60% of the company. ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? of course, it can¡¯t just have one recording studio and one production line. How can it only rely on equipment? Someone can turn the company into a company. To become bigger and stronger, a record company must have music producers and top singers.  Many top singers in Hong Kong have not yet become famous. Chen Yihua is very familiar with these people, and it is easy to recruit them. Of course, to have good singers, they must have good songs.  Hong Kong song productionAmong people, Chen Yihua is most familiar with the two saints of "Hui Huang", but the two have already become famous in 1976. Huang Zhan established Huang Yulin Advertising Company, Gu Jiahui is a general of TVB, and Rolling Stone Records wants to take these two people.  The two of them hired me without even thinking about it. Not only was the price too high, but even if Rolling Stone Records paid well, they might not be willing to cooperate with a little-known record company like yours.  Famous music producers are not suitable for today's Rolling Stone Records. Chen Yihua had no choice but to find people who were not famous. Many classic songs in Chinese music were created by Hong Kong music producers. Although Chen Yihua did not like these people.  As familiar as those singers, I still know the general name.  Xiang Xuehui is a famous Austrian pop song lyricist in Hong Kong. He has composed more than 300 songs in his life and has collaborated with many big-name singers. What made Chen Yihua's profound influence on him was Xiang Xuehui's talent in commercial promotion of songs.  , the later hit "Mouse Loves Rice" in the Mainland was promoted by him [1]. Xiang Xuehui is still studying electronic engineering. By 1977, Xiang Xuehui was working in Polygram Recording Studio, and he was  While working, he was studying electronic engineering. His talent for writing lyrics was discovered at that time, and he was recommended by Xu Guanjie to PolyGram executives, and he entered the music scene from then on.  Finding such a person is now a very simple matter for Chen Yihua. Let Xiang Xuehui join Rolling Stone Records. Chen Yihua also thinks it is just right. A record company cannot have only one music producer. There are currently no singers in the record company.  , you don¡¯t need too many top music producers, but you can¡¯t wait until there are singers in the future to prepare for this. The main purpose of Chen Yihua¡¯s cooperation with Huang Zhan¡¯s advertising company is to prepare for the future of Rolling Stone Records.  Huang Zhan has become famous now. It is impossible for Chen Yihua to recruit someone to become a professional writer for Rolling Stone Records. He only bought a stake in Huang Yulin Record Company to build a relationship with him. Chen Yihua believes that as long as he has shares in Huang Zhan's company, he will definitely do it in the future.  Will be happy to cooperate with the Rolling Stones. Hui and Huang have a close relationship. The contact between Chen Yihua and Huang Zhan is equivalent to an indirect contact with Gu Jiahui, another top music producer in Hong Kong.  Moreover, Huang Yulin Advertising Company not only has Huang Zhan, a top producer, Lin Yanni¡¯s brother Lin Zhenqiang is also a rare talent in this field. Others may not know this person now, but how could Chen Yihua who came to later generations be able to  I have never heard of this person¡¯s name. Hong Kong¡¯s top musicians are called Shuang Zhan, Shuang Lin, and Shuang Pan. Lin Zhenqiang is one of Shuang Lin.  Investing in Huang Yulin Advertising Company is a win-win situation for Chen Yihua. Although this advertising company does not make much money, at least it will not lose money. With the prerequisite of cooperation with this advertising company, Chen Yihua believes that it will be easy to get Huang Zhan and Lin Zhenqiang.  The two of them were tied to the chariot of Rolling Stone.  Rolling Stone Records' early development ideas focused on music production, song copyright management, and singer promotion. However, in fact, Chen Yihua's record company is not just about making money. Now Apple is already researching storage devices and mobile floppy disks.  After it comes out, a large part of Apple's next research efforts will be on CDs. Chen Yihua set up a record company in Hong Kong to facilitate Apple's research results in this area in the future.  There are many electronic products specially produced for audio in later generations. The market potential of such products is huge. Tianyi Company has developed electronic products as its top priority, so how could it neglect audio and video electronic products.  The establishment of a record company will also help Chen Yihua integrate such products. Chen Yihua's establishment of a vinyl record production line in Hong Kong is only the early development of Rolling Stone Records. If possible, he also wants to set up a tape research center belonging to the record company.  , technological products are highly interoperable. Tapes, CDs, and records are all types of storage devices. Chen Yihua's resources are tilted towards this aspect. It may be possible to develop a Walkman or CD-ROM before companies such as Philips and Sony.  Such products have support from Apple in the United States. Chen Yihua doesn't think this is a dream.  It is easy to find singers and music producers at Rolling Stone Records, but a good leader is also very important. Perhaps it is the character developed by those previous companies. Chen Yihua does not want to care about the company's trivial matters now. He feels that this is completely  Waste of his own talents, of course, these are just excuses Chen Yihua made for his own laziness.  It is a fact that Chen Yihua does not want to take care of the company's affairs. Rolling Stone Records needs a person in charge. Chen Yihua has a group of people under him, but after thinking about it, he still feels that it is not suitable. Although Rolling Stone Records has just been established, the company's status in Chen Yihua's heart  It¡¯s not low. He didn¡¯t want to just find someone to be the head of the record company. In the end, there was really no other way. Chen Yihua had to temporarily recruit John from Great World Cinema to take charge of the record company. After all, he was born in Universal, so he was involved in this aspect of business.  I am also familiar with it. The Great World Cinema Company is not busy right now and is temporarily managingChen Yihua doesn't think there's any big problem with Rolling Stone Records.
