China Record Corporation

Background
China Record Corporation (abbreviated CRC, Chinese: 中国唱片总公司) is the largest state-owned record company in Mainland China, founded in 1949 after the establishment of the People's Republic. Their catalog largely consists of ethnic, classical and folk music, with some works notably specializing in ancient Chinese music, minyue music (modern Chinese classical compositions), Chinese opera performances, and revolutionary songs. Part of the library also specializes in children's songs and national pop music.

Logo (1980s)
Visuals: On a background, multiple curved staff lines with  notes moving in front of them appear waving. After a while, the staff lines turn static and the musical notes close to the screen turn into straight lines and move to the bottom-center, while the background turns into a - gradient with a dark blue surface. The line turns into a lyre harp, and stars appear shining on it. Then radial circles appear around the lyre harp, expanding towards the screen and disappearing. The lyre harp turns 3D, spinning into a circular emblem with two lines at the middle with the text "CRC" inside, a drawing of the Huabiao totem and the Meridian Gate of the Beijing Forbidden City at the top, and wireframe globe-like lines at the bottom. The elements of the emblem then change colors, with the outlines in green-yellow, the Forbidden City in, the Huabiao totem in , the inside of the middle ribbon in dark brown, the inside of the bottom in an dark orange-bright orange gradient, and the "CRC" letters in a moving rainbow-like gradient. The white Chinese text "中国唱片总公司" zooms in at the bottom of the logo, and the gray "CHINA RECORD CORPORATION" appears below it.
