Chapter 561
Although Xiao Sui avoided suspicion and did not come to Qiantang to accompany Gu Ao in order to participate in the literary award sprint.
But Gu Ao obviously would not lack a confidant and beautiful woman who could study at night.
On the first day back to Qiantang, I had a small gathering with my family and told me about my goodbye. Gu Ao made a long-distance phone call with Mina that night and cared about how Mina was doing recently.
Without even mentioning his whereabouts, Mina, who has a keen sense of smell, took the initiative to speculate and ask: "Have you returned to the mainland?"
Of course, Gu Ao would not deny it and was honest and honest.
Mina immediately said with a diplomatic rhetoric and obedient manner: "Well, I happen to have some Red Bull business. I want to come to Qiantang to cook, and wait for me. I am tired of staying in the north. In the summer, the winery business is not bad, and there is no business to do with those Lucians."
This is very gentle and considerate, and will not embarrass the man at all, nor will he even remind the other party to notice the pitiful point of "you can leave him alone for half a year".
But Gu Ao also came from the School of Diplomacy and understood these implications very meticulously. Just Mina's words, he was so moved that he was almost shed tears.
Mina is the most careful.
"Waiting for you." Gu Ao said thousands of words, only simplified into one sentence waiting for you, no more.
However, considering that domestic merchants could not buy special planes in 1985, even civil aviation did not have flights with specific routes every day. Mina was far away in the remote north, and it would take two or three days to get to Qiantang.
Gu Ao will inevitably have to live a wild horse without a girl around him, so he decided to spend a day inspecting the industries he invested in Qiantang, and then spending time with his family, and then go to the "Grand View Garden" to make it a cool and cool place.
There is nothing much to say about the relatives at home.
My sister has been taking care of her business in Japan for many years and has not returned, so my father still works diligently as the director of his central enterprise.
Gu Ao's two cousins are also diligent and steady. There is no sign of the tendency to become a dandy person after having money. Especially the cousin Gu Xun, who is the director of the air-conditioning workshop in the factory. Now that summer is good business, there are more people asking him to approve notes, but he is very self-deprecating and has not reached out.
Due to the lack of materials in China in 1985, although air conditioners are expensive and few people can afford them, they can produce less by the national plan.
The two brothers relied entirely on their legal income and the reasonable distribution of their units to rent a bungalow public housing house in Chengbei Xinkai New Village, which was a two-bedroom and one-living room, and also took the eldest uncle to spend his old age. Because it was the money his son had legally received, the old man finally had nothing to say, and did not feel it would be a harm to his later years, so he enjoyed it obediently.
As for the younger sister Gu Mei, she also graduated from high school a month ago and passed the college entrance examination.
However, Gu Mei was just a poor student who was responsible for being cute and causing trouble. The current market situation was very different from Gu Ao and Gu Min's sneak attack back then. The competition was very fierce, so Zhejiang University and Qiantang University didn't have to think about it.
In the end, Gu Mei was only admitted to the business school in this city, a college, and even her major was subject to adjustment and allocation.
Fortunately, my family had no extra expectations for her, and her elder brother had never studied in college, so the family was already very satisfied.
This time, when Gu Ao went home, when he first met, he saw her younger sister's admission letter and rewarded her with a bunch of French goods. He also promised to help her family get a visa when he had time and ask everyone to travel abroad. There is no need to repeat the details.
(Of course, Gu Ao doesn't have time to accompany them, so he can only be a translator as a guide, and at most a bodyguard. I believe that Gu Ao's enemies will not think that these people are worthy of being tied up, because their relatives are far away and cannot threaten Gu Ao. Including Gu Ao's stepmother, there is no threatening value. At most, only his father and his elder sister have threatening value. They have to be equipped with more bodyguards when they go abroad.)
As for Gu Ao's business in Qiantang, he spent a day to inspect Tiankun Music's CD factory and Lanting Cinema opposite the Nanjiang River.
Gu Ao originally thought that producing CDs was not very technical, and the management and workers should not have a sense of belonging and pride in the company. It was just to use money to work.
However, after visiting it in person this time, I realized how easy it is to satisfy today's workers, especially those who have just obtained recruitment indicators from the land expropriated, who were still farmers in the past two years.
Without Gu Ao's care at all, the production line spontaneously organized two shifts to start construction in a 24-hour round.
Gu Ao felt a little confused - now there are not many records that Tiankun Music can release, and only singers under it are Zhang Xueyou, Li Keqin, and Zhou Huimin. At the end of the year, another Liu Dehua is available.
Among them, Li Keqin was talented but not good-looking, and was inconvenient to packaging, so he did not shoot MV promotion for him, and his sales volume was even smaller than that of the album.
In addition to these people, Tiankun's CD factory can only produce orders from other music distribution companies, and these orders are obviously not open yet, and the sales volume they have reached is not large.
Therefore, there is no need for the factory to start construction 24 hours a day, and the production capacity is absolutely enough. Now that the start construction 24 hours a day, maybe by October and November, it will be shut down for a while due to excessive inventory, which is completely unpaid.
After Gu Ao asked the factory manager, he realized what was going on.
"I heard that most of the products of the factory are exported to Xiangjiang (of course, Xiangjiang is Chinese territory, but the things sold there are also exports), and there are even a few that are sold to Japan and the United States.
From the leaders of relevant departments in the city to the workshop directors, to the workers, they were all very excited and issued a military order to work hard for 200 days. We have never seen 100% of the high-tech products made by the Chinese themselves, which can be sold back to Japan, and the United States."
This answer made Gu Ao laugh and cry.
Although, the truth cannot be miscalculated.
On this acre of three-quarters of the land in Qiantang, the Tiankun game console that was originally built for only one or two years in Xihu Electronics Factory, but that thing is imported after all, and does not belong to "100% domestic products". Later, the game console industry formed a scale, and the OEM was moved to the special zone by Han Ting.
Strictly speaking, before Gu Ao debuted, he sold the complete sets of helium-making equipment from Qianxiao to the US Department of Energy at the Foreign Affairs Bureau of the First Department of Machinery, which was a real "100% Chinese-made technology equipment sold to the United States."
However, it was also considered an unexpected accident in an emergency. If it weren't for the 1979 Sanli Island nuclear accident and the US Department of Energy had to ask for goods suddenly, it would have been a Plex or Fertilizer empty order.
In Gu Ao's eyes, a mere CD factory has the most technical content, which is almost the same as when the 92 leaders inspected the "Xianke VCD". Although the latter was 7 years late, it was V-carted after all.
During the inspection, the head of the factory and the leaders of relevant departments in the city raised some doubts. (Of course, according to the level before Gu Ao left the system, no local area in Qiantang who was lower than Qiu Qing was considered Gu Ao's personal "leader", at most, the same level)
"Mr. Gu, why can several Chinese singers and records from Xiangjiang be sold to the Japanese and American markets? Is it because Chinese pop music has such a high international status? Then you really give us Chinese people a face."
If you really want to write a little bit of pretentious slap in the face, it will be fine if you only have two or three chapters alone, and you can vent it with great ease.
However, Gu Ao is a realistic person. He doesn't want to show off by bullying his mainland peers in a narrow sense, so he honestly revealed the answer:
"It's nothing. Although Japan and the United States have sales, the album "Kiss Goodbye" has only tens of thousands of copies in these two countries. It's been a month since the buyer. As for the people I don't have detailed data, I can also make a guarantee. Most of them are bought in Japanese or Chinese Americans.
Well, just like Teresa Teng, you can have a concert at the Kennedy Art Center, and those South Korean artists can also hold concerts at Madison Square Garden in New York. Do you think they are all white people? They are not overseas Chinese and Koreans."
Of course, the artists of Nanbaung in 1985 have not reached this level. Gu Ao just used the common sense of Korean entertainment in the s-m era in later generations. Anyway, the audience doesn't know how the Nanbaung entertainment industry is now developing, so they will not be able to help.
As for taking Wanwan people as an example, Gu Ao blurted out and wanted to say, "Just go to the Southern California concert with Zhou Jielun in Los Angeles, aren't it all Chinese people watching it?"
Finally, the words came to my mouth and stopped. I knew that this example would definitely be misleading, so I changed the temporary processing to the example of Teresa Deng.
Moreover, Gu Ao's words are definitely well-founded - perhaps some viewers were loyal fans of Zhang Xueyou back then, and would refute "Zhang Xueyou's "Kiss Goodbye" became popular in Europe and the United States, and even became the top record in the Netherlands."
But in fact, those are mainly contributed by Asians overseas. It cannot be said that white people don’t buy them at all, but at least half of them can’t be occupied.
In fact, this can be easily explained from the fact that "why Zhang Xueyou sold the most in Europe in history, and in the Netherlands" - because in history, Zhang Xueyou defected to Polykin Records when he debuted.
As we all know, when all mankind defined the CD music system in 1982, the initiators of the three standard definitions were Philips, Sony and Polygon.
But more people may not know that Polygon is actually a record company with a background in Philips' capital and a record company run by Philips's outgoing executives. In other words, it is a music company split by Philips.
In fact, when humans defined CD in 1982, it was similar to Philips Sony's share of the world. Sony only did not build a self-built record company or music company at the beginning. Akio Morita felt that it was not cost-effective to start from scratch, so he endured it for a few years. After the yen in 1985, Akio Morita used the buying and buying strategy to turn Columbia records into Sony records, and completed the layout of Sony's entire music industry.
As we all know, Philips is the leader of the Netherlands in the technology industry, and Polygin is also a Dutch enterprise. Therefore, in history, Zhang Xueyou's "Kiss Goodbye" sold the most and best in the Netherlands in Europe, which is not entirely determined by strength, but because the Netherlands is the home of publishers.
Now Gu Ao's Tiankun Music mainly relies on the Sony system overseas channels, so it is not surprising that Zhang Xueyou's records sell the best in Japan and are second in the United States.
In the future, not only Zhang Xueyou, but also all singers and artists operating under Tiankun Music will have this market structure - until the establishment of "Sony Records" in the future, and Gu Ao has to fight with Akio Morita and builds his own channels.
"It turns out that overseas Chinese and Asians are buying Chinese pop music records, so that's not surprising. Alas, we're so excited, thinking that pure Japanese and white Americans are both moved by our pop music."
When he heard Gu Ao's answer, the factory manager and relevant personnel from the city's economic authorities all felt sorry.
But at the same time, they became more admirable to Gu Ao.
"Mr. Gu is different from those nouveau riche who have gained a few opportunities to go abroad to do business.
If others sell 100% domestic high-tech products abroad, they don’t know how to make a big fuss, and at least let the provincial TV station and provincial newspapers take out a prime time or a front page to report on this performance.
Look at Mr. Gu, who sold CD records worth millions of dollars overseas, did not make any contribution at all, and he also took the initiative to clarify and expose it. It doesn’t matter. This is the tycoon.”
