Lan Guifang took the day off from work today. She has a bad back and a herniated disc, so she went to the hospital for a checkup.
It's clear that she has completely integrated into the music school, and she manages the school very well.
After taking a tour of the music school, Liangliang was very satisfied with its condition. Finally, she went to the recording studio before returning to her office.
Today is December 27th, time to start thinking about the Lunar New Year.
When to give employees a holiday and how much to give them as a year-end bonus are all issues he needs to consider.
Plan ahead to avoid being caught off guard later.
With businesses including Haiyun Dance Hall, Haiyun Disco, Haiyun Music Store, guitar manufacturing, and Haiyun Music School, he is now a small business owner with several entities and over a hundred employees.
These people are all people who rely on him for a living. Even if he can't make them rich and powerful, he should at least ensure they have enough to eat and wear.
While Liang Liang was considering the New Year, people in the capital city, thousands of miles away, were also thinking about the New Year.
Moreover, the things they were considering were actually related to Liang Liang.
The CCTV Spring Festival Gala production team is looking at a newly released album titled "The Power of Chinese Rock Music in Hung Hom, 1994".
They watched very carefully, not missing a single program from beginning to end.
"Absolutely fantastic! I have to admit, this program was truly excellent!" Someone broke the silence after the last program, "I Love You, Motherland," finished playing.
This album was bought by Xiao Song from the street by their program team, and they saw it when it was played on the TV station's VCD player.
I wasn't planning on watching it, but I got hooked once I started.
"These rock musicians seem different from the rock musicians in Beijing."
"It's definitely different! When you listen to their songs and their melodies, you don't feel that lifeless feeling. Even if some lyrics are a bit somber, the overall spirit is positive and uplifting. Also, their hair isn't that long, at least not down to their waists."
When attending the Hong Kong Coliseum concert, Liang Liang specifically instructed Han Chuang and Hei Dao to cut their hair shorter.
Therefore, the longest anyone attending this Hong Kong Coliseum concert wore was a shawl.
Liang Liang even got a buzz cut.
He was ridiculed by others for getting a buzz cut, who said that he used to have medium-length hair, but now he's getting a buzz cut in the winter. They said, "Why don't you just get a bald head?"
This was originally a suggestion from Liang Liang made unintentionally, but unexpectedly it left a good impression on others here.
"I never imagined that there were people who played rock music like this. They are indeed fundamentally different from those half-dead rock hustlers in Beijing," said an elderly man with gray hair.
"What a pity! This album came out too late. If it had been a month earlier, we could have considered inviting them to the Spring Festival Gala. Several of the songs on the album promote a positive and uplifting spirit, especially the last one, which is fully qualified to be featured on the Gala." The speaker was a middle-aged man in his forties wearing glasses.
He is Luo Mingbo, the chief director of this year's Spring Festival Gala.
"Director Luo! It is indeed a bit late. Our program has already been finalized and there is no way to make any changes. But the Lantern Festival Gala program has not yet been finalized, has it?" Xiao Song, who was buying the DVDs, interjected.
"Xiao Song's suggestion is good!"
"Mr. Li! You also agree to let them perform at the Lantern Festival Gala? I'm afraid it's too late. The review process will take a long time. Besides, the propaganda department has objections to these rock songs, so the chances of approval are slim."
The person addressed as Old Li remained silent for a moment.
"Go and talk to the publicity department. It's better to guide public opinion than to suppress it. Now that we've finally encountered a few rock singers with positive ideals and spirit, we should set a positive example for other young people who play rock music. I think we should give them a chance."
That makes sense, but these rock 'n' roll hooligans in Beijing have really ruined rock 'n' roll over the years, leaving no good impression on the propaganda department. Whenever you mention rock 'n' roll in front of them, they automatically picture a bunch of hooligans. It's hard to change that perception.
"Xiao Luo! Isn't your father in the propaganda department? Take this CD back and show it to him; maybe it can change his mind."
“My father retired last year, Mr. Li!”
"Ah! People's memories really do get worse as they get older. I forgot about that. But since your father has retired, his colleagues and wives are still around. Didn't you used to visit their departments often?"
Old Li only touched on the point and didn't finish his sentence.
Liang Liang, who was thousands of miles away, was unaware that someone had already watched their performance DVD in Xianggang and had a discussion about them, the result of which was obviously in their favor.
But whether it's altruistic or not is unknown; he's currently on the phone with Liu Wentong in his office.
"What! Mr. Liu! How much did you drink at noon?"
"Kid! What do you mean by 'how much you drank'?"
"Then why are you talking nonsense? What do you mean by saying that all our albums have been sold?"
This old man is talking nonsense! He sold a million CDs in a week? You're just trying to fool him!
"Hahahaha! I knew you wouldn't believe me, so I made a bet with someone, and I've got my dinner bill covered tonight!"
Something's not right here. Could this album have become a hit as soon as it's released?
Why haven't I heard it playing much in Lianwan?
"Can't you imagine how popular your album is? Let me tell you, the Yoshigo Market alone took away ten truckloads in one go."
We need to calculate how many cassette tapes a truckload of this Liangliang liquor can hold.
The smallest packaging for cassette tapes is a small cardboard box, about 50 centimeters long and 25 centimeters wide.
One of these boxes can hold fifty cassette tapes.
Five of these boxes make one large box, containing 250 trays.
A regular truck can easily carry 100 boxes, and an extended truck can carry even more.
Guangyiwu Market took away one-third of it?
This is pretty amazing.
"The Xiliu and Linyi markets in your province, both located in Beijing, have also taken away Yiwu's supply. How much stock do you think I have left?"
It seems that he has almost completed his shipment of one million units.
"Mr. Liu! The New Year is just around the corner, and everyone needs money for the holidays. Since your shipments are almost all sold, could you settle the account with us... Hello? Hello?"
What does this old scoundrel mean? Why did he hang up the phone as soon as I mentioned paying the bill?
Is it morally right for him to do this?
Just as Liang Liang was about to complain after hanging up the phone, she suddenly noticed Li Zhizhou rushing in like a madman.
"Xiao Liang! Xiao Liang! Tian... Tian..."
"Strive for progress every day!" Liang Liang casually replied.
