The richest person in Chinese entertainment

Chapter 91 Concert Preparation

What is the best way to ensure the continuous progress of the Chinese music scene?
That is to expand the audience of Chinese music, allow more listeners to join in, and thus cultivate a variety of musicians.

Therefore, Chinese pop music cannot be limited to the land of China. It needs to communicate with the world and thus blaze a path that will allow it to grow rapidly.

As the only Chinese singer in the Chinese music scene to be recognized by the Grammy Awards, he is the best bridge of communication between the two.

This bridge cannot be broken.

Otherwise, even if there is no "fifty-year-old woman guarding the national border" in the future, there will be scenes like "Zhang Chen fighting alone in the Grammy Awards".

"Mr. Zhou, please arrange a few concerts before the middle of next year." Zhang Chen had no choice but to try his best to keep himself busy before recuperating.

"How many games?" Zhou Jianhui wanted more, but this also required Zhang Chen's consent.

Because according to the contract, Zhang Chen only had to complete the hard target of 02 concerts before 5.

This question stumped Zhang Chen. If he really wanted to take all his fans into consideration, he would need to hold quite a few concerts.

As for the mainland alone, due to transportation issues, it would be best to have one show each in the north, south, and central regions.

One show each in Hong Kong Island and Taiwan Bay.

For North America, it would be best to have one on the west coast and one on the east coast.

Europe also needs 2-3 games to play.

Adding all these things up, according to the minimum standard, it will take about 10 games.

However, this also depends on whether there are local organizations willing to host it.

In fact, singers basically do not get any share of the concert ticket sales, and all profits and losses are the responsibility of the organizer.

Singers only receive "appearance fees", so the "occupancy rate" of each concert has no direct impact on the singer's income.

The impact can be indirect. For example, if the attendance rate of a concert in place A is too low, then if you still want to hold a concert in place A, the local organization will carefully consider whether they can make a profit.

This indirectly affects the singer's "appearance fee".

Why are some singers called "economic engines"? Because when these singers hold concerts, the local government makes the most money.

"How about this, Mr. Zhou, you go and count how many regions are willing to host the event. After the count, I will consider how many events to hold." Zhang Chen also wanted to see the extent of his current influence so that he could have a clear positioning of himself.

"I feel relieved when you say that. Just wait." Zhou Jianhui took Zhang Chen's promise and his face glowed again.

Zhang Chen watched Zhou Jianhui leave here with great confidence and couldn't help but sigh. Things happened one after another, leaving him no chance to rest.

"It's finally done." Zhang Chen walked out of the recording studio. Instead of taking his own water cup, he chose an unopened bottle of mineral water, lay down on the sofa and started drinking.

As a singer, I should always keep the habit of not drinking water that has left my sight.

"Two albums have been completed. Your job is the most tiring one I have ever taken on." Zhang Yadong also sat down opposite Zhang Chen.

Arranging music is actually about providing accompaniment for the song.

Composition, generally when a singer writes a song, “sings” the melody part.

But that doesn’t mean singers can’t compose music. On the contrary, many singer-songwriters have full ideas about the songs they write and compose.

Therefore, when Zhang Yadong was helping Zhang Chen compose music, he had to fully consider Zhang Chen's opinions.

"You should be very busy this year, right?" Zhang Yadong was a little curious about Zhang Chen's schedule this year.

"I would like to take a break, but reality does not allow it."

"Other singers are crazy about going out to participate in activities, which can increase their popularity and make money." "But you are just thinking about lying down every day."

Zhang Chen was unable to refute this.

Perhaps he has been too busy recently, so today, the first day of the millennium 2000, has arrived, but he doesn't have any particular feelings about it.

If there is one thing that he can pay a little attention to, it should be the Grammy Awards nomination list on January 1th.

The reason for his concern is very simple. He wants to know whether the American Music Association will still give him an award based on his behavior last year.

This is related to how he will view this award in the future.

Before the scandal broke out, this award was the highest music award in the world. It remains to be seen whether this time they will ignore the fact that his albums are selling well all over the world and not give him even one award.

Yes, they probably won’t be able to explain to the donkeys and elephants.

If they don’t, the whole world will question their fairness.

From this point of view, Zhang Chen actually hoped that they would not give him the award.

"Zhang Chen, look! You're on the news."

When Zhang Chen heard Zhang Yadong's call, he focused his thoughts on the TV.

"Hello, audience friends, welcome to watch Entertainment News Report."

"Entertainment News Report" is a program launched by Guangguang Media, aiming to be a "news broadcast of the entertainment industry."

At the same time, the program is divided into two parts: domestic "China Entertainment Report" and international "World Entertainment Report".

Coincidentally, Zhang Chen was included in both sections.

In the domestic version, the report was titled "Zhang Chen's album caused a huge response in the Chinese-speaking regions", and explained the current situation and future of Chinese music.

It also pushed Zhang Chen to the throne of the founder of "Chinese style" pop music.

"That's nonsense. Chinese-style music has existed for a long time. It's just that I made a louder noise." Zhang Chen was speechless. Can this hat be worn casually?

"Don't worry about what others say, but you have indeed made Chinese style, a genre that was previously forgotten by others, popular."

Zhang Yadong touched his chin and said thoughtfully, "So it seems that I still need to learn some more folk instruments? Otherwise, if you release Chinese-style songs in the future, I will be at a loss."

"Well, good luck?" Zhang Chen replied perfunctorily while watching the TV: "I hope you can become a 'master of musical instruments'."

The more Zhang Yadong understands, the more he benefits, and the diversity of music styles can also bring him more help.

"It says here that you have canceled more than a dozen overseas fan meetings?" Zhang Yadong looked at the international version of the entertainment news with curiosity.

"Well, so I have to pay for this this year." Zhang Chen shrugged.

"It's unwise. The loss should be more than the several million dollars mentioned in the report, right?" Zhang Yadong gritted his teeth and took a breath of cold air.

The report above only estimated the money he might have made from selling albums at these dozen fan meetings, but it did not take into account the loss caused by the decline in album sales after Zhang Chen fell down the list.

"About, 2000 million US dollars?" Zhang Chen was not very sure. After all, things had already happened, and he couldn't calculate what the sales figure of his album would have been if this hadn't happened.

But no matter how you calculate it, it will not be less than this number.
