Chapter 1436 Interests

In the morning, Ning Xiupei still supervised the two sisters Song Zixuan and Song Zimo to study, whether it was piano practice or vocal practice, there was a place for them to practice.

Chen Yushan doesn't go to the company herself, she can practice at home, and she has to practice more guitar to prepare for future concerts.

Ning Xiupei didn't forget to care about when her album would be released, Chen Yushan said that it would be scheduled for the twenties of next month, which is also the most perfect time, and if it was later, Qin Fangge would have no time to help her stand on the platform! After so much time of careful polishing, her first album has become quite mature, she can even practice singing in the studio every day, and the level improvement is also quite fast, without tuning, the recording can't deceive people.

Xi Wanqing and He Ruyun arrived at the courtyard at about ten o'clock in the morning, and they went out too early and the jewelry store didn't open. After several women met and greeted each other affectionately, they went out together, they were still wearing their usual clothes, and they had to wait until they went to the opera to change into evening dresses.

Qin Fangge asked them to go to the Grand Theater early in the afternoon, there was a drinking party held by the Grand Theater, which was actually a social occasion for a group of people, and the main people who came before were also classical music peers. What else did he say he didn't have time to let them help deal with it, Ning Xiupei and the evening were still quite interested.

So, I went to the jewelry store first to choose the right jewelry, which was all invested by Xi Wanqing, Xu Jing, Xue Min, He Ruyun, and they were rented. Although Qin Fangge is now a billionaire, Ning Xiupei is still reluctant to spend a lot of money on such an expensive thing, and she doesn't want Xi Wanqing to send it, owing favors still to Qin Fangge to pay off the debt. Fortunately, the current jewelry brands are not new to the situation of renting jewelry, and they have long been quite mature.

There are also people like Chen Yushan who want to become a big singer, in the future, she will attend various occasions, and it is not realistic to buy clothes and jewelry by herself, not all of them are provided by major brands, of course, there must be coffee seats and cards, otherwise, people will not rent it to you!

The women were not very resistant to the glittering, bejeweled beauty of things, and even the two teenage girls were dazzled by the dazzling array of jewelry stores. But neither of them has a share, and Ning Xiupei doesn't want them to carry such valuable jewelry at this age, if there is a mistake, they can't afford to cry without tears.

At noon, Xi Wanqing took them to eat delicious food, and after a lunch break, they went to the National Center for the Performing Arts together.

Qin Fangge was busy and didn't have time to entertain them, but he greeted the staff of the Grand Theater in advance, and they all knew Ning Xiupei and Xi Wanqing, everyone had also worked together at the Grand Theater at the beginning, that is, when Qin Fangge had a solo concert.

Chen Yushan, He Ruyun, and Song Zixuan joined in the fun, and the two students could also increase their knowledge.

The opera performance started at 7 o'clock in the evening, and the foreign classical music colleagues who were lucky enough to get tickets for the premiere basically arrived, and those who wanted to cooperate with Qin Fangge and the National Center for the Performing Arts would also come to the Grand Theater in advance. Especially since the cooperation has been finalized before, the Roman Opera House and the Prague State Opera have a lot of people.

In addition, the Japanese and Korean colleagues who visited the rehearsal yesterday were all present today, and for them, this is also a rare time for peer exchanges. In the Japanese and Korean classical music circles, the worship of Europe and the United States is still above these Chinese musicians, although they have also produced a lot of masters, conductors, performers, singers, and even composers, but it seems that in the face of the more rich European and American countries, they are particularly lacking in confidence.

On the Chinese side, due to the increase in economic strength, the activity of the classical music market seems to have made Chinese more confident. In addition, Qin Fangge's fresh blood joined, and now there is everyone's gathering.

When Ning Xiupei and the others arrived, they also found that the promotional posters outside about tonight's "Don Juan" performance had already been erected. Of course, on the posters and other promotional videos, it is indispensable to mark tonight's title sponsor, which is a bank that cooperates very closely with the NCPA and has been a long-term sponsor of the NCPA, claiming to be a strategic partner.

A few of them also stopped to admire, Qin Fangge's Don Juan undoubtedly stood in the middle position, although he was dressed very dirty and makeup and was ten years old, but his appearance and temperament were there, Song Zixuan and they all laughed and said, "Big brother is very aristocratic, this is the unruly Don Juan!"

Then there are a few soprano singers who are almost twenty years younger, and then there are a few male singers, all of whom were originally well-known big-name singers, but now they are all reduced to supporting roles.

More slogans on the poster are also boastful, what is "the first Western opera of a Chinese composer", "the most talented composer and perfect opera", "the world's first singer performs with love"......

Because Qin Fangge sang baritone tonight, the Grand Theater felt that his original "world's No. 1 tenor singer" was not accurate enough, and he changed to the current "world's No. 1 singer", and he was not afraid of others' provocative posture at all.

They also discussed for a while in front of the poster, and Song Zixuan also asked Xi Wanqing, "Is there anyone named or sponsored Big Brother's concert?"

Xi Wanqing replied, "There are many companies looking for us, but they haven't made a final decision yet, so we are not in a hurry, and we will wait until his opera performance in the past few days is over!"

"Well, that's good!" Ning Xiupei nodded, not to mention waiting for the price to sell, at the very least, let everyone correctly understand Qin Fangge's influence. She is not opposed to commercial sponsorship, as classical music in the past also needs sponsorship, otherwise composers and musicians would have a hard time surviving, and how to create and perform.

Xi Wanqing also told Ning Xiupei and them about the general situation, Qin Fangge has not signed endorsements from other companies now, and this symphony concert also has no intention of selling himself easily. Naming rights or something, just the symphony concert in early July, and we'll talk about it later.

But the sponsor naturally wants to sign Qin Fangge as the spokesperson, whether it is a bank, a watch, a car or an airline, this is not the idea.

However, Qin Fangge and Xi Wanqing disliked the price they gave was too low and there were many restrictions, so they didn't agree, anyway, they talked slowly, and Qin Fangge was not so short of money here.

Take his symphony concerts as an example, even if he doesn't solicit sponsorship, it is very easy to earn 5 million in the end by relying on ticket revenue, excluding renting the venue of the National Center for the Performing Arts, paying expenses to the symphony orchestra, paying taxes, etc. For three performances, the concert hall has about 2,000 seats, and the average ticket price is 1,500, and the ticket revenue alone is almost 9 million. If you want to be a scalper and raise the ticket price, you can earn more.

But Qin Fangge obviously didn't have that plan, otherwise, he wouldn't have applied for a lottery to buy tickets. In this way, it is also possible to not be limited to the National Centre for the Performing Arts.

Opera performances and symphonic concerts are also one yard to one yard.

For example, in this opera performance, Qin Fangge will take the performance fee, and don't care about anything else, the National Center for the Performing Arts pays a lot and earns a lot. For five consecutive days of performances, tickets sold super hot, and they themselves intercepted a lot of tickets, but they were not scalpers. It has to be given to sponsors, the government, and peers, but the tickets for peers have to be bought at their own expense, just to ensure that there are tickets for them.

Ning Xiupei and Wanqing are not so stingy, to care about the income of Qin Fangge in this opera performance, the key is that the cost of the opera performance is too high. Qin Fangge doesn't take risks, pays salaries, makes costumes and props, and there is no need to covet more income.

But their opinions are still the same, Qin Fangge still has to take the initiative in holding a concert, even if he asks the symphony orchestra to play or play the symphony, at most he will pay the symphony orchestra performance fees, and it will be one million in the sky, and he can earn more.

The current society is very realistic, whoever has a bigger name and box office appeal will have more initiative.

As for the National Center for the Performing Arts, although it may also be dissatisfied, there is no way.

In addition to the fact that opera performances are basically in the Grand Theater, if Qin Fangge wants to hold a concert, it can't only be in their concert hall. There are still quite a lot of concert halls in Yanjing, in addition to the National Center for the Performing Arts, there are also Yanjing Concert Hall, Yanjing Theater, Zhongshan Park Concert Hall and other places. Moreover, with Qin Fangge's box office appeal, even if he only holds a concert in the concert hall of the Huaxia Conservatory of Music, he is not afraid that the tickets will not be sold at all, and he will definitely make a lot of money, why do he have to hang himself on a tree.

If Qin Fangge is even more disciplined, then learn from Zhou Jia and Su Yunfei, and simply hold a concert in the gymnasium, which is a place that can accommodate more than 10,000 people, don't be too cool to collect money. Alternatively, you can go to the Great Hall of the People, which has tens of thousands of seats! Ticket prices are not low, and a concert in these places is as low as the income of five concerts in a concert hall......

In other words, the international piano superstar Zhou Jia has few performances in the concert hall in China, and they are all looking for gymnasiums. The sound of the piano and the orchestra is also transmitted to the ears of the audience in the stadium through amplified sound equipment.

Qin Fangge would definitely not do such a thing as making money and losing his value, and he didn't even consider a place like the Great Hall of the People with poor acoustics, even if the seats there could sell more tickets, he wouldn't worry about not being able to sell them. It's not like Zhou Jia's concert at all, which can be bought for more than 2,000 yuan and 100 yuan......

When a few people talk about it, they don't have to deliberately avoid the existence of problems and contradictions, but Ning Xiupei also said, "We can't do it because others do it, or because there is indeed such a market, if you don't make money in vain, you still have to have your own principles and ethics." ”

Everyone thought so, and Xi Wanqing carefully told Chen Yushan not to think too much, "We just said Qin Fangge, if you have a concert in the future, it will definitely be held in a place like a gymnasium or even a stadium!"

Chen Yushan smiled and nodded and said, "It's originally a different type of music, if we want to sing popular and popular to perform in the concert hall, without microphones and stereos, it's quite good to be able to hear it in the front row!"

Ning Xiupei didn't explain much, these common senses were originally known to everyone. For example, these popular songs created by Qin Fangge do not discriminate, isn't that equivalent to slapping himself in the face?

After a while of gossiping, Ning Xiupei and Xi Wanqing still went to meet with those classical music colleagues, Ning Xiupei didn't care about Qin Fangge's specific career plans, but Xi Wanqing obviously respected her opinions very much, and asked her very intimately, at least, in the general direction, she, as a mother, gave opinions and suggestions that could be used as a reference.

Of course, in the end, it still depends on Qin Fangge's own decision.

Xi Wanqing and the others didn't make decisions for him, but first put forward various practical suggestions and plans, and then waited for Qin Fangge to make a decision, and then implemented them concretely.

Soon met with Qian Feifei of the Grand Theater and classical music colleagues from various countries, today everyone naturally has no rehearsal to watch, and they are not allowed to go to the opera hall to disturb Qin Fangge and Zhou Xiuying's preparations, just wait for the official premiere of the opera in the evening.

When this group of people got together, they didn't have to worry about having nothing to communicate, and the main topic was still focused on tonight's opera "Don Juan".

The music of the opera, before this, Qin Fangge was revealed through the super difficult piano piece "Memories of Don Juan", which is said to contain all the music in the opera. In terms of the plot, on Qin Fangge's official website, there is also a relevant plot synopsis, but it is not detailed to every line!

After Xi Wanqing and Ning Xiupei appeared, they also had their own division of labor, and Xi Wanqing and He Ruyun were mainly responsible for business negotiations.

And Ning Xiupei still talks to everyone about art, her identity as a musical genius mother is still quite easy to use, but the pressure is also great!

This time, the managers of the Roman Opera House and the Prague State Opera were present, and Qian Feifei and He Xiong of the Grand Theater and the two opera houses confirmed that they were all about the performance of the opera "Don Juan", and the performance of the Qin Fangge Symphony Concert was never officially decided. At that time, Qin Fangge was not in a hurry, and no matter how anxious the opera house was, there was no good way, even if he knew that he was waiting for the price to sell, seeking the greatest reputation and benefits for himself.

But that's the most normal thing, okay!

The team formed by Qin Fangge is not a dry meal, and Xi Wanqing and the others are even more powerful in business negotiations. Compared with opera performances, the preparation and performance of symphony concerts are much simpler, and the benefits are much greater.

Let's put it this way, opera performances are basically loss-making, Qin Fangge's symphony concert is completely profitable, and the amount is quite large, anyone is unwilling to be squeezed by others, just to see if their confidence is enough, and whether the cards are enough. In addition, symphony concerts held abroad can also be sponsored. 2k reading web
