Chapter 1377: First Mainland Tour
When Yin Jun was busy in the United States, Kirin Records was also busy in China.
Huang Bogao personally led the team, came to Huajing after the Spring Festival Gala, and began to discuss the concert tour of Zhang Mingmeng, Luo Jialiang and Kwong Yuanyun.
A mere concert tour, and even have to negotiate directly with Cultural X, in the future, it is really a bit of a cannon to fight mosquitoes.
But there is no way, now this kind of thing, the people below dare not be responsible, and they can only be decided by the people at the top.
Fortunately, Yin Jun is now a big celebrity, and Zhang Mingming's song "My Heart of China" in the Spring Festival Gala was praised by a group of central bigwigs, who felt that this was one of the best songs in recent years, and it was worth promoting and carrying forward.
Yun Lao, a person who likes music and has a strong artistic cell, even hums himself from time to time.
So, after strictly reviewing their singing songs, Culture X finally issued a wholesale approval, but they were only allowed to hold concerts in ten cities, and the number of concerts could only be 20 in total.
Originally, it was going to be one in each city, but Huang Bogao gave full play to his messing around, and stayed in their office if he didn't let go, anyway, if you didn't agree, you would play tricks.
When they encounter this kind of person, they have no choice, but they are not disgusted at all.
Because Huang Bogao was domineering at all because he was from Xiangjiang, he didn't say that he would go to the people above to put pressure, let alone move out of Yin Jun.
In this way, the top and bottom of Culture X feel that Lao Huang understands the rules very well and is a particular person.
So in the end, ten more were approved.
Of course, it was impossible for Kirin Records to have an average of two shows in each city, and they opted for differentiated performances.
The three major cities of Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou each sang three times, the rest such as Jinling, Rongcheng, Lin'an, and Tuoshan were two performances each, and the remaining three cities of Lanchang, Changsha, and Yuzhou each had one performance.
The three people, who had experienced almost half a month of physical fitness, performance, and dance training, arrived in Huajing again with their team and audio equipment after arranging the stadium in Huajing.
For this concert, Kirin Records can be said to have invested a lot of money.
Not only have the dance, soundtrack, band, sound, and effects been carefully choreographed, but also Zhang Mingxian, Luo Jialiang and Kwong Yuanyun have been trained more rigorously to ensure that the audience will have the best impression during the concert.
For this reason, they did not choose the kind of stadium with 60,000 or 70,000 people at all, except for the venue in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, which is about 30,000 people, the rest of the venues can accommodate 10,000 people.
The duration of each concert is as long as four hours.
Coupled with Encore's return, it was at least four and a half hours.
In other words, each of the three singers has to sing for an average of 90 minutes.
90 minutes, even with accompaniment, before and after, and talking for a while, there must be 20 songs as the foundation.
Singing 60 songs in a concert by one person is simply an ordeal.
Even if you invite two or three guests, you can sing about five or six songs at most.
Fortunately, the three singers took turns to play, otherwise no one would have been able to survive.
There is a saying in later generations that anyone who holds a concert for more than three hours will generally eat a little mysterious thing to lift his spirits, I don't know if this is the case, but this also shows that holding a concert is a very physical thing.
The three of them are fortunately in the prime of life now, plus they have trained the rhythm and prepared how to do it at the concert, so after the first scene, although there was a little mistake, they also held it firmly.
This year, where are there any concerts?
And it's these three big singers from Xiangjiang singing?
You read that right.
Because they appeared in the first Spring Festival Gala, everyone subconsciously thought that they were big singers.
But I don't know that in Xiangjiang, they can't be ranked at all.
But this is the mainland, if everyone thinks so, even if it is.
Before the start of the performance, all 20 concerts in the mainland were sold out.
Even if the price is not cheap, the average ticket price is 5-10 yuan a piece, and the most expensive can have 50 yuan a piece, which is still sold out in less than half a day, and the first to sell out is still the most expensive ticket.
The preparation of the three singers is very sufficient, and dozens of songs have been carefully selected by Luo Dayou and Li Zongsheng, all of which are suitable for this era, and they are not so frivolous and pursue love, but at the same time they are very good.
Under the backdrop of top-notch sound effects and performance style, the audience listened mesmerized.
The songs that were sung in the Spring Festival Gala triggered a chorus of 10,000 people.
In this warm atmosphere, the concerts in the mainland were more and more lively, and the news, newspapers and magazines also followed up and reported on them, as if setting off a storm of singing.
Huang Bogao is not an ordinary person, he has a high emotional intelligence.
In particular, Yin Jun told him about the bad habits of piracy in the mainland, and when he himself traveled back and forth between the mainland and Xiangjiang, he also learned that the pirated music tapes in the mainland were too fast and unscrupulous.
So before this concert tour, when Zhang Mingqiao was still practicing in Xiangjiang, he had already recorded the master tape of 60 songs and sent it to the Kirin Record Factory in Lin'an to fill the tape.
As soon as the concerts in Huajing, Jinling, and Huhai were over, and the news came together, and even Huaxia TV came with a report that "Xiangjiang patriotic singers came to perform, which greatly enriched the spiritual and cultural life of our people", and Kirin Records immediately began to ship goods nationwide.
After such a long time of stumbling with Xinghua Bookstore's sales network, Kirin Records has established a huge sales network across the country.
If Kirin Records were just an ordinary record company, they would definitely not be able to support such a huge network.
To put it simply, it's not enough to sell.
People can't just sell a few or a dozen of your singers' record tapes, right?
But Kirin Records is different, they have almost integrated all the resources of Baodao and Xiangjiang in the past 20 years, and there are more than thousands of records in their hands?
Therefore, all the video stores that sell the works of Kirin Records have various types of tapes and records, and they also sell blank tapes, and the business is very good.
has such a large sales network, as well as the Spring Festival Gala and concerts as gimmicks, tens of millions of tapes, in just two days, they all want to go.
The concert trio had not yet reached the last two stops in eastern Guangdong, and the tapes were all bought up by enthusiastic fans.
This not only proves the great power of the Spring Festival Gala, but also proves that the charm of the current Xiangjiang singers and Xiangjiang songs is really too great!
Not a joke.
Even ten years later, in the 90s, the records of superstars such as the Four Heavenly Kings could casually sell millions of copies in the mainland - the premise is that most of them are pirated copies.
At that time, at least hundreds of Baodao and Xiangjiang singers poured into our field of vision, and in such a situation, most of them were still best-sellers, which is a manifestation of obsession with Hong Kong and Taiwan pop culture.
It's been like this for more than ten years, and now it's just the first time I've come into contact with the Xiangjiang stars who have appeared on the Spring Festival Gala, everyone likes their songs, and the idea of wanting to collect a cassette tape is also a very normal thing.
As a result, the 10 million albums that were still pressed in his hands and were ready to be sold slowly in the next two months were also waved by Huo Jianning and sent out directly.
At present, the production line of Kirin Record Factory has already undergone a round of upgrades, and the production capacity has been greatly increased, and if it is at full capacity on weekdays, it can reach a monthly output of 20 million tapes.
Seeing that the songs of the concert were so popular, Huang Bogao, who knew the tape sales cycle well after learning about it for about a year, immediately applied to Huo Jianning for another 20 million plates.
Don't look at Huang Bogao who controls Kirin Records, but Huo Jianning is also the vice president of Kirin Group, and he has won Yin Jun's trust, so Huang Bogao naturally pays attention to how to get along with him.
In fact, the revenue profit of music tapes is not too high because the price is very cheap, but it is just that it wants to introduce pop culture to the mainland and gradually introduce the stars of Hong Kong to the mainlanders, so it is so energetic.
Of course, if it weren't for the low price of the music tape, it wouldn't have sold so well - pirated copies are everywhere, but if the price difference is small and the sound quality is very different, many people will still choose to buy a genuine version with better sound quality.
For example, this concert.
In terms of ticket revenue for concerts, excluding all costs, there is only less than 1 million yuan in revenue.
After so much effort, a team of hundreds of people has been running around for more than a month, and everyone has only earned about 1 million, which is really unimaginable.
But Yin Jun said in advance that even if he loses money, he must continue to do it, and the dividends and subsidies will go from the profits of the record company, and he will not treat these singers and staff badly.
1 million is indeed a little small for everyone.
But if you add 40 million music tapes, that's a lot.
The net profit of 40 million music tapes reached 30 million yuan.
Huang Bogao is ready to apply, and take out a profit equivalent to 10 million Hong Kong dollars in it and distribute it to all the singers and cast members this time.
He believed that Le Yiling would definitely agree, after all, Le would never discount what Yin Jun told him.
With this lucrative return as a demonstration, the next time a singer comes to the mainland to do a concert, whether it is themselves, or the dancers, bands, and sound and lighting staff, they will be happy to come.
Only when they show their best state and show the best live performance to the audience in the mainland can they achieve Yin Jun's propaganda purpose!
For example, this time, after hearing about the amount of bonuses that will be distributed, everyone who was originally tired is full of energy again!
