HDLL Chapter 22 – Tianxiang Records’ Chen Yijie
Today’s weather in Hong Kong is very good. Sunshine shuttles between high-rise buildings, hardy spraying warm light on this international metropolis.
In front of a small western-style white building, Hu Songnan is watering flowers in the yard.
This is his son’s home. It didn’t look big, didn’t look luxurious, and even have a bit of an aged feeling. But don’t underestimate it. Those who can live in such a villa in Hong Kong, where an inch of land is an inch of gold, are not ordinary local tyrants!
Hu Songnan came to his son’s home and lived for nearly a week now, but he did not go out to “see the world”. it was mainly because he had a quiet personality. He just played the piano and raised the flowers, which became the only thing he could do.
Although his grandchildren are very well-behave, but after all, young people also have their own lives. Naturally, they don’t have that much time to accompany him.
“Dad, let’s go!” A well-maintained middle-age man of nearly 50 years old came out and said respectfully.
This is his eldest son, Hu Yongxiang, the boss of Tianxiang Records, which ranks fourth in Hong Kong Record Company. Despite his aloof status, he still showed great respect in front of his father.
“You said that you need some advice from this old man?” Hu Songnan sat in his son’s car and said, “I’m not in pop music. I’m afraid I can’t handle your young people’s stuff!”
Hu Yongxiang personally drove for his father, he smiled lightly, “Where? Dad, you have been a teacher for so many years, with rich experience. You can help me train the musicians in the company! I can’t think of anyone who would be more suitable for the position of general music director!”
In fact, he is just talking nonsense.
Record companies have music directors, but there has never been a position of general music director! It was just set up by Hu Yongxiang for his father. He wanted his father, who was still physically strong, to move more. Otherwise, if he stayed at home all the time, his health might be affected.
When he arrived at the company, Hu Songnan did not tell him what to do. He kept a kind smile, greeted people and had a gentle conversation with the company’s executives called by his son.
“Grandpa Hu, you actually know how to speak in vernacular (Cantonese)? “Hu Yongxiang’s secretary, Ye Xiaofeng, is a young girl. She is the daughter of a shareholder in the company. She has been sent to gain experience in the company. She is also relatively straightforward and asks a little bluntly. (In order to make it easier for everyone to understand, the following Cantonese dialogue is automatically adjusted to Mandarin.) (TN: All the words within the parenthesis is in the raw)historical
“Well, when I was young, I also studied in Hong Kong.” Hu Songnan did not care, he nodded and smiled in response.
“Xiaofeng, although my father is from the mainland, you should not underestimate him!” Hu Yongxiang was somewhat dissatisfied. He always felt that his father was his idol all his life, so he tried to show off like a child. “When he was young, he traveled and taught in many places, such as Hong Kong, Germany, WYN in Austria, and many other places. Before my father was 55, he was invited to perform at WYNJSDT almost every year or two.” (TN: WYNJSDT is Vienna Music Association Golden Hall)
