Chapter 5: The Singers' Club

Jiang Dongliu remembers very well that Ma Feng, who is a self-proclaimed NPC, said that he should pay attention to Qian Dachao and Zheng Yue.

These two people are the right-hand men who can help him become the singer of the year.

Listening to that meaning, Ma Feng should have seen the plot later in the novel.

If the plot of the novel written by Yang Cong can come true.

That means that he will definitely become the singer of the year in the future.

As for whether he can be crowned the king of singers of the times, Yang Cong probably hasn't written it yet.

Zheng Yue and Qian Dachao should be his most important partners in the early and middle stages.

He had searched the internet for both names before.

But nothing useful was found.

So far, there has not been a celebrity named Qian Dachao or Zheng Yue in the Chinese music scene in this world.

Jiang Dongliu thought that he would meet the two people after a long time, when those two people came up.

Unexpectedly, Qian Dachao was in Chang'an County.

The fat sister said that the boss of the singer club is most likely the right-hand man who is most important to him.

Jiang Dongliu came to the spirit all of a sudden, and he couldn't care about eating buns.

Listen intently to the fat sister and continue to talk on the phone.

Russia is responsible for registering students for the competition, so just help you make up a fake student identity! The organization of this competition is very loose, and you don't check your student ID card at all, as long as you look like a student. Also, the Russian club is now in a turbulent period, several singers are leaving, now is the time for a shortage of people, as long as you perform well, you will definitely be favored by the Russian boss!"

Listening to this meaning, the fat sister is doing a relatively grass-roots job in Qian Dachao's singer club, and she is afraid that she is not familiar with Qian Dachao.

Otherwise, she just told Qian Dachao about her niece.

Listening to her evaluation of Qian Dachao, this handsome boss should be quite righteous.

As long as the singing voice can move him, he should be willing to lend a helping hand to others.

The fat sister persuaded her niece for a long time before she persuaded this niece who wanted to save face.

If nothing else, the aunt and nephew will put on a good show in front of Qian Dachao in the afternoon.

Jiangdong Liusu quickly ate mutton steamed buns, so he didn't stay in the small restaurant for long.

Go back to the small inn next to the county hospital for fifty dollars a night.

In the lobby, I asked the chatty innkeeper about Qian Dachao's situation again.

I don't know if I don't know.

When I asked, I learned that Qian Dachao was still a celebrity in their Chang'an County.

This guy is most talked about by the locals for singing with incomplete tones, but he dares to sing with a thick skin.

He is willing to yell a few times on any occasion, and is often seen as a joke.

This trait is similar to that of Jiangdong Liu.

Qian Dachao and Jiang Dongliu are also generally old, both 27 years old this year.

In the mouth of the innkeeper, Qian Dachao is a rich second generation who is very unprofessional.

Qian Dachao's father, Qian Bin, opened an iron mine in their county, and also ran several sand and gravel factories and steel mills, which was quite rich.

In the Greater Chang'an area, the Qian family's wealth is not considered to be in the stream, and it is not worth mentioning.

But in Chang'an County, Qian Bin can definitely rank in the top three of the wealth list.

According to local tradition, as the eldest son in the family, Qian Dachao should have learned to take over the family business and become an industrialist like his father.

But Qian Dachao doesn't like to engage in this kind of serious business, he likes to run a singer club.

Qian Bin has long seen that his eldest son is not the material for industry.

simply didn't force Qian Dachao to inherit the family business.

Instead, they wholeheartedly cultivated their youngest son, Qian Xiaochao, to take over the family business.

As for Qian Dachao, he likes to do a singer club and do a good job, which is not a bad habit or a bad thing.

Although Qian Dachao has never made money in the singer club, he has to rely on his family to make up for millions of shortfalls every year.

But Qian Bin still supports Qian Dachao's singer club.

Because, in the entire Greater Chang'an region, and even in the whole of China, there is such an atmosphere.

Even rich consortia or large enterprises will invest in and run their own singer clubs.

If the singer club can be run well, it will form a brand effect, not only can make money, but also is extremely beneficial to the image of the corporate consortium, which is much better than ordinary advertising.

Qian Dachao's singer club belongs to the Qian family's Daqin Iron Ore Group, and its name is Daqin Iron Ore Singers Club.

When Jiang Dongliu investigated these singer clubs in Chang'an County before, he had seen the name of the Daqin Iron Mine Singer Club.

He thought the club was dirty.

At first glance, it is an accessory of a group company, not a singer club that really specializes in music.

So I didn't dig deeper.

Several other singer clubs in Chang'an Prefecture also have family businesses.

But the names are very stylish.

For example, the "Nanshan Dongli" singer club, which ranks first in Chang'an County, is opened by the largest manor owner in Chang'an County.

The name of the company's company is "Nanshan Manor", and the singer's club is called "Nanshan East Fence", which sounds very meaningful.

A single name has thrown out several streets for the Daqin Iron Mine Singers Club.

However, in terms of the club's ranking and hard power, the Daqin Iron Ore Singer Club ranks among the top two in Chang'an County.

It's only worse than Nanshan Dongli, and it's better than other singer clubs.

Nanshan Dongli and Daqin Iron Mine are the only two D-level singer clubs in Chang'an County, and they are qualified to independently organize the APM10 level challenge.

There is a clear hierarchy of professional singer clubs in China.

There are six levels in total.

From high to low, they are Super, A, B, C, D, and Micro.

The rights and responsibilities of each level of the singer club are different.

The higher the level of the club, the higher the advertising score in music festivals and singing competitions, the higher the share of TV broadcast revenue, the higher the number of wild cards obtained by its singers, the higher the level of organizing APM singing competitions, and the higher the number of APM singing competitions allowed.

There is a barrier to entry for each level of club promotion.

The entry threshold for super clubs and first-class clubs is that they must sign at least 500 APM professional singers.

The entry threshold for second-class clubs is to sign at least 100 professional singers.

Class C is the signing of at least 50 professional singers.

D-level is the signing of at least 30 professional singers.

Micro is to sign at least 10 professional singers.

Only organizations that have signed up to more than 10 professional singers are eligible to become professional singer clubs.

It is not enough for the professional singer club to have many signatories, but also to divide the club level according to the total ranking of its singers' year-end points, which is divided once a year.

In the last week of each year, when the dust settles on the APM year-end points and rankings of professional singers, the club's annual total points and rankings are also released.

For the large singer club in the top sequence, no matter how many professional singers it has signed, only the top 100 singers in the club will be selected, and the APM year-end points will be added together to form the club's year-end total points.

According to this year-end total points ranking, the top 10 clubs are the super singer clubs of the coming year.

The clubs ranked 11th to 30th will become the first-class singer club for the coming year.

After the Super Club and First Division clubs are ranked, the ranking rules of the later clubs will be slightly fine-tuned.

The latter club is to take the year-end points of its top 30 singers and add them up to form the club's year-end total points.

The 31st to 100th clubs are the B-level singer clubs.

The clubs ranked 101st to 250th are the Singers Club of the C Rank.

After the top 250 clubs are ranked, the rules for the next ranking are fine-tuned again.

Later, only the top 10 singers in the club will be added up to the APM year-end points.

The clubs ranked 251st to 1000th are the D-level Singers Club.

All the other clubs that meet the entry threshold are micro-level singer clubs.

The Micro Singer Club basically has no substantial business interests.

Because only singer clubs that start with the D grade are eligible to hold APM competitions independently.

They can independently hold APM regular competitions on their own turf that are beneficial to their contracted singers.

Although the D-level singer club can only hold the lowest level of APM10 Challenge, this is enough to save some "life-saving" points for its singers.

If a professional singer does not compete for a long time, or does not win any games in the competition, he will not have APM points.

Singers with 0 APM points for 18 consecutive weeks will have their professional qualifications revoked.

If you want to regain your professional qualifications, you must undergo the professional assessment of APM, which can be a troublesome process.

If the singer club can organize a formal APM competition independently, it can give some life-saving points to its more dangerous singers, or singers who are unable to participate normally due to injury or illness, so as to reduce the cost of running singers.

This is quite a bargain for both singers and singer clubs.

Only when it becomes a D-level singer club will the club have the capital to attract more singers to sign up.

In addition, the singer club holds a challenge and can independently name the competition for various enterprises.

Or for the relevant enterprises to reap regional advertising benefits, or greatly increase the club's advertising revenue, so as to form a virtuous circle in operation.

In short, it is of great significance to the singer club to be able to compete to become a D-level club.

In Chang'an County, the D-level qualification of Nanshan Dongli is relatively stable.

They finished 468th in the country last year, and it is no surprise that they will be able to retain their D status this year.

But the situation of Daqin Iron Mine is more dangerous.

They have been ranked outside the top 900 in the country for two years in a row.

The year before last, it was 952nd.

Last year it was 986th.

At this rate, their qualification for next year's D is in jeopardy.

Jiang Dongliu listened to the gossip that the innkeeper broke out and said the same as the fat sister.

It is rumored that the top three singers under Daqin Iron Mine are all terminating their contracts with the club.

They all want to jump ship and go to Nanshan Mountain.

Nanshan Dongli has made a big move this year, and wants to rush forward to see if there is a chance to rush to the C level.

In order to achieve the goal, Nanshan Dongli is recruiting powerful singers at any cost to expand the scale of the club.

The three powerful singers of Daqin Iron Mine are all key recruitment targets of Nanshan East Fence.

If these three people dig up the Nanshan East Fence, it will be a devastating blow to the rating of Daqin Iron Mine.

In short, the innkeeper is not optimistic about the future of Daqin Iron Mine.

According to his words, Qian Dachao is a soil hammer with incomplete tones, and he can't be compared with Yan Ruozhi, the young owner of Nanshan Mountain.

"If you are tired of the life of a wandering singer and want to find a professional singer club to take refuge, you must go to Nanshan Dongli. Miss Yan, the young owner of Nanshan Dongli, is not only smart, but also very good at singing! She has only entered the professional music scene for a year, and the APM ranking has entered the top 200 in the country, and the future is bright, I don't know how many times stronger than the earth hammer Qian Dachao, with Miss Yan on top, the future of Nanshan Dongli will definitely soar, and it is the right way for wandering singers like you to take refuge in Nanshan Donglian!"

The innkeeper saw that Jiang Dongliu had been asking him about the local singer club, and thought that Jiang Dongliu wanted to find a local singer club to join, so he gave these heart-wrenching suggestions.

If Ma Feng hadn't mentioned Qian Dachao to Jiang Dongliu, Jiang Dongliu would definitely not have anything to do with an enterprise-level singer club like Daqin Iron Mine.

But now that he knows that Qian Dachao is his right-hand man, he can't sit idly by and ignore Daqin Iron Mine.

After talking to the innkeeper.

Back in the room, I squinted at a healthy nap.

Staring at the time of two o'clock in the afternoon.

Jiangdong flowed to Chang'an County No. 1 Middle School.

He was going to the student singer audition held by Daqin Iron Mine to have a good time.
