Chapter 169 Billing Day
"This song hasn't premiered yet? I have to listen to the full version live, there is no doubt about it."

At this time, Macaulay, the editor-in-chief of "The Hustle", first followed the content of the broadcast in his mind, counted the number of days left before the performance, and then counted the number of days to issue tickets.

"29th, 30th, 31st...August 8st ticketing...Friday? There are three days left, let's buy four tickets for the whole family..."

Get up, comb your hair, brush your teeth, spit bubbles into the sink, take a handful of cold water, pat your face and rub it back and forth.

The drowsiness disappeared, the mind was clear, and the movements froze.

Which orchestra's concert?

…Hell, what did I write in the report last night?
Macaulay flew to the phone box, first dialed the number of his newspaper company, but when no one answered, he suddenly realized that he was not at work, and then dialed his assistant's home.

"Mr. Macaulay?..." The voice of the young guy who answered on the opposite side was extremely sleepy, as if he had been woken up in the middle of the night.

"What about last night's special report?" Macaulay asked eagerly.

"It's out, printed, distributed, [-] copies, and has been distributed to several major publishing companies, postal companies, and bookstore distributors, including [-] copies in the imperial capital, and [-] copies in other cities..."

The assistant boy was asked about his work, and while reporting, his tone gradually became sober.

There was a tremor in Macaulay's tone: "Shouldn't this point have reached the newsstand at the terminal?"

The guy said: "I told them to make sure that the citizens can buy it at newsstands on every street as soon as they go out in the morning..."

The other party was silent for a while.

He also remembered the requirements that Mr. Editor-in-Chief emphasized to himself many times on weekdays, regarding work creativity and initiative.

So the voice of the assistant holding up the phone came from the receiver, followed by the sound of walking footsteps and the sound of windows being pushed open: "The newsstands at the two intersections downstairs of my house have a long queue, and the competition among the major newspapers seems fierce. …Mr. Editor-in-Chief, I was slow to react, and now I will go to the company to print [-] more copies.”

"Damn it! Why don't you usually see you move so fast!?" Macaulay's voice suddenly increased.

"...You said you would leave overnight, and we were busy until three o'clock in the morning." The assistant's voice was choked up, and then he laughed honestly.

"Bang!-beep...beep...beep..." The phone hung up.

"Did the editor-in-chief have a bad family life last night?" The assistant scratched his head in doubt.

……

The car was driving smoothly on the street, and the morning news was playing on the radio. On the way to work, Minister Noel was half lying in the back row, with his arms stretched out, and the documents in his hands held high.

This is a collection of cultural newspapers carefully prepared by his secretary.

"Why did almost all the media mention the Saint Lania Symphony Orchestra?" Noel rolled his brows and frowned.

He was deeply impressed by the poor pricing of this university this year, but he seemed to understand the motivation of this school in this situation.

As the main person in charge of the Ministry of Culture and Media of the Empire, he feels that it is necessary to take some measures to curb the unhealthy trend of attracting attention by hyping up negative images in the art world.

"For the speech at the opening ceremony, I have to prepare some words to hammer it out." Noel thought so.

The radio news broadcast ended, and after a short period of background noise, it entered the morning music appreciation program of Hoffman Records Publishing Company.

The elegant and melancholy violin melody sounded, and Noel froze.

"Why did you turn down the sound? Turn it back!" A minute later, he spoke to the driver dissatisfied.

"...It's not me, I don't have one." The driver looked blank.

At the next moment, a female announcer in Hoffmann's language sounded: "Young composer Carlone Van Ning's "Violin Concerto in E Minor". After the performance, we will organize an on-site pre-sale in the hall."

""Violin Concerto in E Minor"?" Noel repeated to himself.

He had an impression of each school's repertoire, and he naturally remembered that St. Lenia University had a premiere performance this year, but he didn't take it seriously at first.

"What's the fuss about the on-site pre-sale of records? Discounts on the stubs of honored tickets? The composer and the violinist signed together?"

Noel was already scratching his head.

Does the empire have any incentives or restrictions on related behavior?Maybe not
Has anyone done this before?It seems that there is no
At the moment, he only feels that this kind of gameplay has touched his own blind spot of knowledge. In his many years of experience in the cultural management industry, he has never heard of these three operations.

But at least one thing is certain.

The minister was in a sense of loss at the moment, and he had forgotten all about the rectification of the bad atmosphere. He picked up the calendar on the car and began to count the days until the performance.

At the same time, with Fort Santa Ramos as the core, practitioners in various cultural industries, media writers, academics, artists and citizen enthusiasts. As long as there are people around Those who turned on the radio in the morning heard the beginning of this piece of music and the trailer behind it.

Naturally, it also included people from the media companies yesterday, as well as teachers and classmates from major music schools.

"Carolne Van Ning's Violin Concerto in E Minor? Is this the young composer Uflandser who just wrote Symphony No. [-] in D Major?"

"Damn it, why is this radio station so short?"

"My God, what kind of genius-level romantic melody is this, so what is the music behind it? What is it? What is it?"

"Damn, who told you to post so fast last night?"

There are also many music fans and citizens who consider more realistic issues.

"The billing date is August 8st. Sales outlets? What are the sales outlets? Hurry up and write them down. Well, the nearest one is."

"Dad, I want to buy a VIP ticket, and I want the autographs of the composer and the violinist."

"I can't accept this piece of music only once in the field. I want to take the music home and listen to it as much as I want!"

"18% discount on records with 30 pound stubs? Records are not cheap, and at an average price of 6 pounds, this is at least [-] pounds saved. Hahaha look what I found, only fools would buy the first Tickets for the second-tier area!"

Beginning Tuesday, July 7, the radio station aired the recording and preview for three days on Hoffman Records Publishing's Morning Music Appreciation Show.

In the early morning of Friday’s invoicing day, at a sales agency located relatively far from the center of Fort Santaram, the older owner was wearing a pajamas, yawning, and slowly opened the shutter door of the store.

Approaching hundreds of people, the small store was completely surrounded!
Judging from everyone's emotions and subtle movements, it seems that they are still a little restless.

The boss trembled with fright. He has been in the shop for so many years, and he has never encountered such a scene at seven o'clock in the morning!

Did I accidentally offend some local gang force recently, and someone came up to make trouble?
