I became famous in the entertainment industry by burning incense

Chapter 423 Xi Mengze: Shaking his head, sighing and waving his hands, I am really too hardworking!

Holding a concert is considered the most extreme external expression of a singer’s influence.

Only popular singers can sell out concert tickets and fill the seats.

Among the popular singers, only talented singers will not be criticized by netizens who come to watch their concerts for not being worth the price of the ticket and being too lazy throughout.

For singers who can achieve the above two points, their concerts are basically very popular and they can also hold national tours.

As long as you have good physical strength, it’s no problem to hold dozens of shows a year.

Why is holding a concert considered a reflection of a singer’s influence?
Because concerts can greatly boost the local economy.

First of all, there is ticket revenue. Last year, a first-line veteran singer brought in 4 million yuan in ticket revenue with four concerts that recalled classics.

The local government that rents the venue to the singer can generate income from ticket sales alone.

In addition, listeners coming from all over the world to sing for the singer will bring about an increase in occupancy rates in the local accommodation industry and a surge in foreign tourists, so a 50% year-on-year growth will be no problem.

Another thing is the food and beverage expenses which are difficult for every tourist to save.

The local authorities will set up food streets and food markets on several streets outside the concert venue, receiving tens of thousands of tourists during those days.

Even if there are other restaurants diverting traffic, as long as each stall receives more than 70 fans a day, it can make considerable income.

Not to mention the travel expenses that tourists who come by high-speed rail or plane have to spend, that is, transportation income, as well as nearby shopping, such as duty-free shops, etc., which will all increase significantly.

And these are just the direct consumption growth that singers can bring about by holding concerts in the local area, not to mention other indirect consumption growth, such as local tourism, street stall economy, specialty sales...

There is another invisible value that does not bring any profit but is equally important, which is that concerts can enhance the image of the city.

When a place hosts concerts frequently and has a big show every month, over time it will be labeled a "fan city".

With this label, the city can attract young tourists with its own image even when there are no concerts.

Wouldn't this help develop tourism?
Marchday scheduled their first concert in Dongwei City, which shows that they value this city very much.

Chinese people are very particular about "beginning" and "end". The first game, the first time, the last game, and the last time all have very special meanings.

For fans, who have finally saved up enough money to attend a concert and traveled thousands of miles to watch it, they would also hope that the concert they attend can have a more special commemorative significance.

After listening to their reasons, Jinli couldn't help but agree:

“I think it’s very meaningful that you hold the first concert in this city. For many first-tier cities, it doesn’t matter whether the concert is held or not.

But for some relatively remote cities, whether or not a concert can be held, whether or not a singer can hold their first concert here, is of great significance! "

Marchday chose to hold their first show here, not only because the city was sincere in trying to win them over, but they also wanted to use their influence to make a contribution to the city.

Jinli feels that Marchday's approach has put the star's halo to more meaningful use.

The influence of celebrities can radiate higher and wider, and is not limited to the enthusiasm of fans.

Jinli's heart was even ablaze with passion, and she said excitedly: "It's a pity that my singing skills are not that good, and I can't hold a full concert, otherwise I would also like to find a good second-tier city to hold one."

Gu Cheng smiled and said, "If your personal ability is not enough to complete the intensity of a whole concert, then you might as well participate in more compilation concerts. This is also a singing method that many popular singers choose now."

Chen Lin immediately raised his hand. He had a lot to say about this approach.

Because just last month, he attended a compilation concert.

But he only participated in his personal capacity, not in the name of the group, so not many fans came to see him specially.

But Chen Lin still had a lot of fun.

Chen Lin: “A compilation concert is very similar to a music festival, but it won’t last as long as a music festival. A dozen singers can just sing two or three songs and the concert will be over.

The experience the audience gets is no less than that of a singer’s solo concert, and it is very suitable for those who want to listen to performances from several singers. Some people are not willing to buy tickets if it is not a compilation concert. "

Luo Yi: "For singers, the physical exertion will not be too great, and they don't have to spend too much time on the arrangement of the songs."

Jinli has not participated in a compilation concert yet, but she thinks she can try more in the future.

But I'm afraid I will only have the energy to do these things after I take the college entrance examination.
-
Time flew by and it soon came to night.

Qi Guan Mingzhu and Ji Qinglian, who were specially arranged by Tianding to run announcements in nearby cities, had not yet arrived at the concert venue. Instead, Xi Mengze, who was traveling far away, arrived at the venue first!
Xi Mengze is indeed the most enthusiastic person to watch dramas. In order to be able to eat melons in depth, he could not buy any plane tickets or high-speed rail tickets.

She came by helicopter!

The helicopter is a two-seater private plane. This time she was very lucky because a friend of hers had applied for a flight to Dongwei City that departed today more than ten days ago.

Xi Mengze remembered that he had seen it on WeChat Moments, so he scrolled through it for a long time and found that friend, asking her if he could give her a ride.

Her friend was very generous and agreed without hesitation.

But he came to Dongwei City not for a concert, but for a business trip.

Xi Mengze's friends knew that she came here for the concert and asked her to help get Marchday's autograph.

"carp!!"

Xi Mengze jumped into the venue and hugged Jinli warmly.

“Meng Meng!!”

Jinli also happily clung to her, and the two of them jumped and danced for a long time before venting their excitement.

Since Jinli joined the crew, the two have not met again.

In the past, they could at least see each other once or twice a month, so they didn't feel that the other person was away. But now that time has been stretched, Jinli and Xi Mengze both feel that the other has not appeared for a long time.

Seeing this, Chen Lin was very alert and knew that she couldn't ask loudly, so she only dared to ask her teammates quietly: "Is the friendship between girls so sticky that they have to hug each other when they meet?"

Yan Xingdong and Gu Cheng did not answer.

Luo Yi, who was also very straight, adjusted his glasses and said calmly: "After all, we are going to the toilet together."

Chen Lin didn't understand.

Chen Lin was shocked!

If his friends were so clingy with him... Emma, ​​he shuddered and felt a chill all over.

After Jinli finished chatting with Xi Mengze, the team leader Yan Xingdong was very much like a host and took the initiative to ask Xi Mengze what he was busy with recently, what he was doing, and where he wanted to go.

It would be fine if work wasn't mentioned, but as soon as work was mentioned, Xi Mengze would shake his head, sigh, and wave his hands.

After finishing the three sets of movements, she finally expressed her feelings. "I feel like I've been too busy this year. I've been too hardworking!"

"In order to avoid being forced by Sister Fang to film, I took on many music variety shows and also found time to attend several music festivals."

Yan Xingdong frowned, "You didn't tell me you were attending the music festival."

Xi Mengze: “It’s not a big music festival, they are all small or medium-sized, so it’s better not to mention it.”

She glanced at Yan Xingdong and said, "Besides, you have been busy with announcements and concert preparations these past few months, working day and night, it's too busy.

I don't want you to spend extra time to help me look up information about music festivals to see if they are reliable. It would be a waste of your energy.

You took me to several music festivals before, and I know the detailed procedures and how to judge whether the organizer is capable. The few times I participated were quite smooth. "

Jinli kneaded Xi Mengze's face and praised him, "Our Mengbao has actually learned to be independent. That's amazing, so great, so great!"

Xi Mengze also pinched the flesh on Jinli's face with his backhand, "Our Libao is so amazing, you are such a good actor, and the box office is so high, what's going on in your head, how can you play the character so vividly?"

She sighed: "I never thought about acting before, I felt it was not for me, it was only this year that Sister Fang suggested that I take on a role, so I tried to practice.

Then I felt that acting was too difficult. How could I forget my own behavior and become the person in the script? And that person is not a real person! I feel that even if I had schizophrenia, I would not be able to learn to act. You are amazing! "

Marchtian looked at them happily and lively, and thought: As expected, birds of a feather flock together. No wonder Jinli and Xi Mengze could form a team together.

Look at this emotional value, it’s maxed out!

Yan Xingdong and Gu Cheng were thinking, luckily Xi Mengze/Jinli were not saying these words to them, otherwise they might not be able to resist the other party's coquetry.

Xi Mengze arrived, so Jinli rehearsed "Fated to Fall in Love with You" again.

The director of the "Leisurely Slow Life" program team will not arrive until tomorrow, so this footage was shot by Gu Cheng with a pocket camera.

After watching Jinli's performance, Xi Mengze started praising her again.

"Baby, you have a great sense of dancing. You have improved a lot in dancing. You have a great style and your body flexibility is very good. It seems that you have been exercising every day!"

"With your dancing skills, you are already way better than me!"

“You sing very well, but your breath is a little off, which is an old problem of yours.

Because I have a pretty good voice, I'm not used to singing with a deep breath. I've been free these days and came to watch you rehearse, and I've also found something to do. Let me help you practice your breath."

Xi Mengze is full of fighting spirit: "Let me teach you to sing "Fated to Fall in Love with You", and you can go from a novice to an expert in one day!"

Jinli: "...Actually, I can half-open the microphone. After all, I'm jumping and dancing and singing at the same time, so my breathing will be messy."

Xi Mengze shook his head: "No, as a singer, I have to be brave enough to challenge the full open mic!"

Jinli was silent for a moment: "Is it too late to say that I'm not a singer now?"

Xi Mengze smiled: "Don't worry, I promise you can become a master in one day. This song is not difficult, it's very easy!"

Faced with such "loving" help from her former teammates, Jinli could only...

Accept, accept, ah.

She had come a day earlier originally just to rehearse a few times to make sure there were no mistakes. Marchday had not set strict requirements on her singing skills from the beginning.

Even without Xi Mengze's help, Jinli planned to work harder to practice singing and see if she could produce a good voice.

Now with Xi Mengze's help, it will be easier to grind.

But compared to Xi Mengze who was in a leisurely state, Jinli was really busy.

Originally, the only thing she had to deal with was the joint signature, but Ye Weijie saw photos from her circle of friends and knew that she was in Dongwei City. It just so happened that he was in a small mountain village in Dongwei City.

So Ye Weijie sent a message to Jinli——

[Jinli, how many days will you stay in Dongwei City? At least one day. Don't leave yet. I will come out of the mountain now and go into the city to find you tomorrow.]

[There are so many good filming locations. Every day people contact us to recommend filming locations. I have visited them one by one and took many photos. I would like to ask you for advice.]

[Jinli, there are so many excellent filming locations. I have trouble choosing. Why don't you help me choose? ]

When Jinli saw this message, she had just finished practicing questions before going to bed.

Jinli: [? ? ? ]

At night, Jinli slept with Xi Mengze, and the two chatted about their recent lives.

As we chatted, we all fell asleep without realizing it.

The next day, eight o'clock in the morning.

Jinli called Ye Weijie and asked him where he was. Knowing that he was about to enter the city, she asked her assistant to send him a QR code.

“I’m here to be a guest at Marchday’s concert. It’s still a secret and hasn’t been made public yet. If you want to find me, you can only go to the concert venue.

The roads leading to the venue are all blocked, and you need to scan the code to get through, which is valid for two hours. If it expires, you can ask my assistant for it. "

Ye Weijie quickly said, "Okay, okay, I just want to see you for photos. I promise I won't interfere with your work."

Jinli said: "It's okay, I'll come when the time comes, and everything will focus on the concert performance first.

And I also want to see the locations where you filmed, to see how beautiful they are that you haven’t picked out a scene yet.”

After talking to Ye Weijie, Jinli looked at the joint message sent by Sister Fang.

There were three third-tier brands that were still hesitating and wanted her to give in, but Sister Fang had already helped her reject them.

There are also two second-tier brands that are hesitating. These two brands are still famous. Sister Fang's tone is more tactful, asking them to think about it carefully. Jinli probably won't give in.

What made Jinli happy was that the two first-tier light luxury brands, plus a second-tier brand, all agreed to her request of "competing for products and bidding at prices".

Anyone who has worked in sales has had such experiences.

The most difficult customers to deal with are not rich people. On the contrary, as long as you help them get things done, rich people will speak to you politely and with a friendly and kind attitude.

Some customers who are not so wealthy will keep making conditions to you, disliking this and that, and they dislike them just for the sake of disliking them, because they just don't want to pay.

Unexpectedly, in the cooperation of joint products, it is the first-tier brands that are most receptive to Jinli's requirements.

This only shows that those two first-line brands understand the value of co-branding with Jinli better than other brands.
