"With the reform and opening up in mainland China, restrictions on popular music have been loosened. There is no absolute freedom of creation anywhere. The current environment is enough to show off your skills. The key is that mainland China has the broadest market in the Chinese-speaking area. 25,000 records in Hong Kong and Taiwan are called golden records.

, 50,000 copies can be called platinum, do you know how many sales there are in mainland China?"

Chen Qi took a sip of coffee, slowly sorted out the contents for Fei Xiang, and said: "I held a Spring Festival party at the TV station, and recorded the music into a tape, a set of two boxes, which will be released in April, and has been sold now.

2 million sets!

I have a newcomer named Li Lingyu, who is only 20 years old. Her first album sold 700,000 yuan. No matter how secretive it is, I can say it clearly that none of her albums are original. They are all covers of Taiwanese songs. Because the mainland people are not interested in entertainment.

They were so hungry that a box of tapes cost 7.5 yuan, and their monthly salary was dozens of yuan, so they were willing to pay for it.

With a population of 1 billion, even one ten thousandth of the population can easily sell hundreds of thousands of copies, or even more.

Your appearance is outstanding and your status is a bonus. How many copies can you sell in Taiwan if you work hard in Singapore and Malaysia? And with all due respect, you have released four albums. Except for the first one which had some splashes, the rest are mediocre and the filming has no effect.

.”

*..*

Fei Xiang could only smile awkwardly, unable to refute.

He majored in drama in the United States, and when he returned to Taiwan, he first started filming. His singing was purely because the record company thought he was handsome. It was a pity that he would not develop more, so they released him an album. "If you are not proficient in Cantonese, you will not be able to enter the Hong Kong market. English

Songs have long ceased to be popular, and you can only sing Mandarin songs. When you come to the mainland, you will have a brighter future and become an absolute superstar."

Chen Qi further induced, saying: "And there is a key factor. You are an American citizen, which can circumvent Taiwan's political blockade to a certain extent. It is relatively easy for you to travel to and from the mainland. Of course, I also made it clear that if you come over, they will definitely ban you from Taiwan.

’s acting career.”

Fei Xiang was silent for a long time.

He said: "Although my career development is average, it can still be considered as a formal start. If I am asked to give up everything and go to the mainland, I cannot agree to it for the time being. And I am not sure that I will be popular when I get to the mainland."

"It's simple. I'll record a song for you, play it on mainland radio stations under a pseudonym, and see how the audience responds." "I have a contract, I can't leave."

"I'll take care of it!"

"I need time to think about it!" "No problem."

Seeing this, Chen Qi dropped the topic for the time being and asked instead: "Okay, let's not talk about this, let's talk about something else. I see on your album that you are of mixed Chinese and American descent. Is your mother Chinese or your father Chinese?

?”

"My mother went to Taiwan from Beijing." "When?"

"I forgot, it seems like decades ago."

"That was almost 49 years ago, more than 30 years passed in the blink of an eye..." Chen Qi started chatting about family matters.

Fei Xiang is gentle, so is he; Luo Dayou is angry, so is he.

You need to have different communication methods with different people. When Luo Dayou was young and vigorous, he would look down on you if you were soft - don't say that you are soft and not tough, it means you are not tough enough.

Except for heroes and martyrs, everyone is afraid of the tough.

Chen Qi chatted for a while and suddenly asked: "Do you have any relatives in the capital?" "Uh!"

"I don't mean anything else. I just want to say that if your relatives are still there, I can help look for them and maybe reunite you." "Really?"

When Fei Xiang heard this, his eyes lit up.

"I can still do this."

"My mother often tells me that I have a grandma and two uncles who are in Beijing. She went to play with a group of classmates and sent home a photo of her trip to Taiwan. Unexpectedly, it was blocked later...

She has been trying to find her grandma for so many years, but I don’t know if she is still alive.”

"Can you give me some specific information?" "Well...

Fei Xiang tried hard to remember and stumbled: "My grandma's name seems to be Li Mengbai. Her ancestral home is in Shandong, and her family is very wealthy. Anyway, my mother said that the family owned a lot of property in Harbin at that time, and later moved to the capital."

Li Mengbai?

Good guy! Chen Qi secretly clicked his tongue. A name like this in a martial arts novel would sound like a wealthy family. Otherwise, the names would be like Fen, Xia, Hua... "Do you still remember your address in the capital?"

"I don't know."

"Okay, I'll contact the relevant comrades right away and help you find it as soon as possible." "Thank you so much! My mother will be very happy to know." Fei Xiang grinned his big white teeth and was sincerely happy.

Many of those who revolted and returned to the mainland were not the first generation, but the second generation. They were born in Taiwan, but they were influenced by the nostalgia of their parents and had a good impression of the mainland. Nostalgia also depends on the specific situation.

Having brothers and sisters in the mainland, and having parents in the mainland, the feeling of longing for you is definitely different. Fei Xiang’s mother Bi Lina has been separated from her biological mother for more than 30 years. "Mr. Chen, I'm sorry to trouble you, what you said

matter..."

"Hey! We are all brothers and sisters in Taiwan. We don't speak the same language. It's important to find your grandma first!"

Fei Xiang was very moved and felt conflicted in his heart. Seeing that Chen Qi was about to leave, he suddenly said: "Mr. Chen, we, we can record a song first, try it according to your method, and play it on the radio station."

"Great, is it convenient for you to come over these two days?"

"It's a little difficult for people in my company to be with me."

"Then you finish your work in Hong Kong and go back to Taiwan first. It just so happens that you can choose some songs by yourself. They don't want to be romantic, but they want a fresh and natural style. It's better to have feelings about family and country." Fei Xiang agreed. He didn't work in a record company.

That's when I felt very free.

Chen Qi initially took care of Fei Xiang and returned to the Clear Water Bay studio as quickly as possible. He rushed straight into Fu Qi's office.

"Uncle! Uncle! There is work!"

"Why are you in such a hurry? Are you getting married again?"

"Can you please stop being disrespectful to me? Seriously, I just...

When he talked about it, Fu Qi became more energetic and asked: "The Hong Kong branch doesn't know about it, does it?" "This is my own United Front work, what does it have to do with them?"

"Okay, let's contact the Ministry of Culture immediately!"

Fei Xiang's mother is Taiwanese, and he is a Chinese-American. He has connections with the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office and the Taiwan Affairs Office, so he has to let the Ministry of Culture communicate with him. Chen Qi reminded: "We must be quick! He is mentally unstable now. Let's strike while the iron is hot, otherwise

It’s getting cold.”

I understand, I understand, it’s better to find relatives quickly rather than later, and the Taiwan Affairs Office should have files on it.”

Ministry of Culture.

While Ding Qiao was worried, he personally wrote a letter to Chen Qi, asking him to come back quickly to host the Spring Festival Gala. After writing the letter, he sealed the envelope and sighed.

This year's Spring Festival Gala is naturally going to be fought over by the Ministry of Culture, but radio and television don't care about martial ethics. Last month, CCTV secretly made preparations for it. They also hypocritically said that both sides should rely on their own abilities. Whoever planned it would be allowed to attend.

Chen Qi is not even in the capital, so what a fool!

"Xiao Chen, too, is developing the television industry in Hong Kong over there and coming back to develop the television industry in the mainland!" "Minister, there is news from Hong Kong!"

At this time, a subordinate sent a confidential letter. Ding Qiao opened it inexplicably and saw that Taiwan, Chinese-American, famous singer and other big words irritated his eyes.

Mainland China cannot call Taiwan compatriots who surrender to Taiwan compatriots preferential treatment; that would be called favorable treatment.

Hou Dejian, who came here in the summer, has been assigned to the Oriental Song and Dance Troupe. He has been assigned a house and two garages, and a monthly salary of 250 yuan. Do you know what it means? And Huang Ayuan, who has just come here, will wait until the "censorship is lifted".

There must be arrangements.

And this person named Fei Xiang was brought here by the cultural system itself! Ding Qiao stood up and said: "Let's go! Go to the Taiwan Affairs Office!"
