7:40 p.m.

In a simple but not simple apartment building, a middle-aged man bent down to turn on the TV and tuned the program to Beijing Satellite TV.

The middle-aged man's name is Ma Xuqi, 40 years old this year, he is a professional agent and producer, but he is not affiliated with any media company, in short, he is a self-employed person, relying on a strong chain of relationships in the circle to travel from various production companies and earn profits through high commissions.

The most famous, symbolic and representative shot was when he was young, he successfully created the popular Big Windmill Band, and the big windmill band's great achievements also made Ma Xuqi's reputation more and more far-reaching.

At that time, Ma Xuqi was known as the platinum godfather, and this recognized title was of great significance, that is, the artists he led released records with a minimum sales of one million copies!

Countless companies want to take down the platinum godfather with a high signing fee, but most of them have failed.

With the disbandment of the Big Windmill Band, Ma Xuzhen gradually disappeared from the public's field of vision, and there was no sign of making another move, some people speculated that he had left the golden basin, but more insiders were more willing to believe that the reason why Ma Xuqi no longer appeared may be that he has not yet met the person who is worthy of letting him shoot.

Regarding such rumors, Ma Xuqi has no intention of denying it.

Because he didn't do it, and there was a reason for that.

Ma Xuqi is only 40 years old this year, and he still has more time to discover more potential singers, but it has been nearly five years since the band's disbandment.

The Big Windmill Band rose to prominence in the late eighties, disbanded in the early nineties, and existed for only four years.

Then its members were scattered to the ends of the earth, some disappeared from the music scene, some debuted alone, and some moved to the film and television industry, but no matter what, dissolution is disbandment, and the former heavenly group will no longer be as brilliant as it was back then.

The Big Windmill Band was only popular for four years, but disappeared for five years, and with their disappearance, rock songs gradually began to decline.

As the platinum godfather of the big windmill band, Ma Xuzi is indeed quite fond of rock music, but in the past five years, there are no more than a few rock songs that can make him feel good, and none of these rock songs have been a real hit.

He knows that rock music has indeed declined, so over the years, he has no longer focused on those rock geniuses, but gradually looked at various singers of different styles.

However, whether it is an underground singer hidden at the bottom, or a singer who has debuted and achieved certain results on the surface, there is no genius who can make him like.

This made him gradually have a negative connotation about the future of the music industry, and at the same time, he was more cautious about his next shot.

He is a person with a high vision, although he is not interested in the so-called platinum godfather title, but he is not willing to destroy the Great Wall with his hard-earned reputation.

However, a phone call from his good friend Jiang Zhongnan a few days ago made him quite moved, who had disappeared from the music scene for a long time.

Lao Jiang runs a blues-style bar in the capital, quiet in the middle of the noise, petty bourgeoisie, and can indeed attract those experienced and sentimental young and middle-aged men and women, although there is no opportunity to make a big profit, but there has been no lack of profits.

In this phone call that made his heart move, Lao Jiang mentioned two people, two singers who sang in his bar.

One is called Bao Yunyun and the other is Li Qing.

Ma Xuqi knows Lao Jiang very well, like himself, Lao Jiang is a person who likes rock and roll and loves talents, but he doesn't agree with what he said on the phone, a singer named Bao Yunyun, in the information he found with his relationship chain, it can be seen that people who have heard her sing, although they are not rave reviews, but those who have heard her sing either hate it to death, or love it to the extreme.

is a very extreme singer, which also makes Ma Xuqi very excited.

As for this Li Qing......

According to the information Ma Xuqi saw, this Li Qing, in addition to having a good skin, does not have any unique advantages in singing, of course, this is a polite statement, if you look at the facts written on the information, this Li Qing is not far from the five tones.

Although it seems that Lao Jiang is very optimistic about Li Qing and focuses on Li Qing's talent in rock music, Ma Xuqi still feels that this Li Qing is overwhelmed.

From the information he obtained, it can be understood that this Li Qing is already an official singer, but he debuted in a group, and the only record release was lucky enough to get the qualification of a golden record. However, after a small fire, it was disbanded due to internal disagreements among members and other reasons.

Ma Xuzhen specially found a record of this group from a friend to listen to.

There are two members of the group, and the voice and singing skills named Xu Wendi are indeed okay, but that's all, and it doesn't make Ma Xu Ji feel a place in his heart.

And another member, Li Qing, whether it is singing skills or voice, what do you say......

Ma Xuqi felt that when he heard Li Qing singing, he seemed to have a feeling of being raped in his ears in a trance.

Therefore, although he promised on the phone that he would go to the Blue Moon Bar when he was free, he was more optimistic and liked the resident singer named Bao Yunyun.

Let's hope you won't let yourself down!

Speaking of which, it seems that I have been disappointed a lot over the years.

Ma Xuqi sighed.

"The much-anticipated "Music Star" is about to start, tonight, how many contestants will successfully pass the level?"

"Audience, from now until the official start of the show, please quickly pick up your phone, dial the hotline that 12992333 participate in our "Music Star", inform the staff of the number of the contestant you think can pass, and those who guess the result will have a certain chance of a program gift package provided by Beijing TV after the show ends!"

“…… Hurry up and pick up the phone in your hand and dial!"

Coming back from his thoughts, Ma Xuzhen, who was sitting on the sofa, looked at the TV.

Zhang Heng, the director of Beijing Satellite TV's "Music Star", is a partner that Ma Xuzhen once operated together, but the relationship between the two is really average, and I don't know what this old man who hasn't seen for a long time is selling today, so he has to watch tonight's "Music Star" by himself.

He knows this show, and he has watched it a few times, and he is indeed very optimistic about this kind of music program born in the form of a talent show. However, he didn't have the heart to pay attention to this news.

Because according to the information he got, most of the people who participated in the recording of the show are not very good, which is one of them.

The second is that these players already have their own brokerage companies, even if the players are outstanding, there are no liquidated damages and superior conditions, it is impossible to poach these players to their side.

So Ma Xuqi didn't pay too much attention to this aspect.

However, Director Zhang is in it, and it is impossible not to know the truth in it.

And what makes him stick to calling himself may be the reason why he has to call, and the target that interests him.

Ma Xuqi did guess one or two.

At the beginning, Xu Wendi hinted at blocking Li Qing and cutting off Li Qing's tape for the competition, but Director Zhang ignored it, secretly rejected Xu Wendi on the grounds of ratings and word of mouth, and insisted on playing the picture of Li Qing's competition.

In this, although Director Zhang is not afraid of Xu Wendi, a popular rookie singer, he is a little frightened by the expedition media company behind him.

Expedition Media is one of the three major record companies in Beijing, an industry giant integrating distribution, production and publicity, Director Zhang is not worried about Xu Wendi, he is worried that he will make a small report and secretly wear small shoes for himself, so after thinking twice, he decided to invite Ma Xuqi, a master with a strong network of contacts and relationships in the industry, to be a shield.

Director Zhang made a good calculation, with Ma Xuqi, an industry leader in front of him, even if the artillery fire of the expeditionary media came, it would not hit him.

Besides, Director Zhang felt that he was not pit this great god.

He believes that as long as he sees Li Qing's singing picture, Ma Xuqi, who has been silent in the entertainment industry for a long time, will be moved.
