Chapter 3 Five hundred dollars a night
…
The owner of the Haima Song and Dance Hall is the host of CCTV's "Hundred Lectures" in the previous life, the host of the talk show "Dudu", and the founder and director of the Guanfu Museum - Ma Weidu.
Ma Weidu has been collecting since the early 80s, and now, his collection has begun to take shape.
By reselling antiques, Ma Weidu really made some money.
So, with the help of several friends, Ma Weidu opened this dance hall and named it "Seahorse Song and Dance Hall".
Li Qing's so-called job search is actually to come to the Haima Song and Dance Hall to apply for a resident singer.
……
Entering the Seahorse Song and Dance Hall, Li Qing first looked at this song and dance hall, which was also a luxury in this era, and then looked at the people in the dance hall for a while.
Although it was not yet dark, there were already many customers in the dance hall.
Among these guests, the person who caught Li Qing's attention the most was the famous director of the previous life - Feng Xiaogang.
At this time, Feng Xiaogang did not look like the sixth master in the movie "Old Cannon" starring him, he was polite when he saw everyone, and he was very weak and polite, and most of the people around him were celebrities in the cultural circle of Kyoto, like Liu Zhenyun, Liang Zuo, Wei Ren, Mo Yan, Yu Hua, etc......
As a prescient person, Li Qing naturally can't just want a job - what Li Qing wants is actually a circle, a circle that can develop himself, and this circle is the Kyoto cultural circle.
The Kyoto Cultural Circle is not only a gathering place for the literati of Kyoto, but also has a very resounding name in the previous life - the Great Courtyard Disciple.
"I came out of a compound with him. ”
This seems to be the mantra of many successful people from Kyoto.
The compound is a social circle and a status symbol.
The children of the big courtyard are the epitome of social in-law relationships with classmates, colleagues, bedmates, seats, and shirts.
Based on the special growth environment, the exploits and experiences of the fathers, and the comrades-in-arms of the children generally grew up in a common environment, which also shaped the commonality in the personality of the children of the big courtyard.
It is difficult for people who do not have this commonality to enter their circle, and it is not difficult to see from Feng Xiaogang that everyone is flattering but everyone is a little fond of him and does not hesitate to ignore him.
Feng Xiaogang, who grew up in the compound of the Party School of the Municipal Party Committee in the western suburbs when he was a child, can be regarded as a disciple of half of the courtyard, and he is still like this, not to mention Li Qing, a person who has nothing to do with the compound?
Therefore, Li Qing did not rush to contact them, but first came to Ma Weidu, who was instructing the waiter to serve a fruit plate and wine to Feng Xiaogang, and said politely: "Mr. Ma." ”
In Kyoto, there are still very few people who call people "sir", especially those who are big courtyard people.
Li Qing called Ma Weidu "Mr. Ma", but it was actually a helpless move!
According to common sense, Li Qing should call Ma Du Boss or Ma Ye.
But what Li Qing wants is not a job but to blend into their circle, and he sneaks in with his chest (mainly because their group of people also look down on those who are spineless, Feng Xiaogang is an example), so Li Qing can't let himself fall too much, at least at this stage.
Therefore, Li Qing gave Ma Weidu a relatively advanced title.
What makes Ma Weidu different from other big courtyard disciples is that he is still a businessman.
Therefore, Ma Wei has his sleek side, which is why Li Qing didn't find anyone else when he found Ma Wei.
Ma Wei looked at Li Qing quietly, and saw that Li Qing was dressed ordinarily but had a calm temperament, and he was a little unsure of what Li Qing was doing for a while, so he said politely: "I don't know what my friend is looking for me?"
Li Qing smiled: "Are you short of a resident singer?"
"Your uncle, it turned out to be a singer, I thought there was a great big man!" Ma Weidu scolded in his heart.
After knowing Li Qing's details, Ma Weidu's attitude immediately changed, and he said lightly: "You go to Manager Chen to talk about this, I don't care about the specific operation." ”
Li Qing's smile remained unchanged and said: "My business, Manager Chen can't be the master." ”
Ma Weidu glanced at Li Qing up and down again, and then smiled without a smile: "Oh? Then you can say it." Ma Weidu already regarded Li Qing as an open-eyed troublemaker.
At this time, Feng Xiaogang and others also noticed Li Qing.
Li Qing glanced at Feng Xiaogang and them, and then said: "I want a relatively expensive price, five hundred yuan a night, and I only sing three songs every night, I think Manager Chen should not be able to do this." ”
As soon as Li Qing's words came out, Feng Xiaogang and the others all laughed out loud - they also regarded Li Qing as making trouble without opening their eyes.
In fact, I don't complain about Feng Xiaogang, they are so arbitrary.
At this stage, most of the resident singers in nightclubs are 20 yuan a night, the relatively high level is 50 yuan a night, and the very popular one is only 100 yuan a night (this is basically the highest).
Moreover, they generally do not limit the number of songs, and some singers even have to sing a dozen songs in one night.
Li Qing asked for 500 yuan a night when he opened his mouth, what kind of concept is this? Let's put it this way, the average salary in Kyoto at this stage is only 3 or 400 yuan a month, and a good courtyard house is only 20,000 yuan, and the price Li Qing wants is almost catching up with the appearance fees of those famous singers!
Moreover, Li Qing only sings three songs every night!
It's not a mess, what is a mess?
Ma Weidu also smiled and said, "Why are you worth five hundred yuan a night?"
Li Qing pointed to the stage and said, "Shall I go up and prove myself?"
Seeing that Li Qing was about to go on stage to prove himself, Ma Weidu's smile froze, and Feng Xiaogang and other people who were gearing up were also stunned!
But—
Soon, Ma Weidu recovered, then pointed to the stage with his chin, and said: "Go up, if you are really worth 500 yuan a night, my Ma Weidu will talk and count, 500 yuan, please be a resident singer in the Haima Song and Dance Hall." ”
Li Qing didn't talk nonsense, nodded at Ma Weidu, nodded at Feng Xiaogang and the others, and then walked straight to the stage.
After going on stage, Li Xing took the guitar from the guitarist, and then played it casually a few times to try the audition.
As soon as the connoisseur makes a move, he will know if there is one.
From Li Qing's auditions, those who know know that Li Qing must be a master of using the guitar.
Then, these knowledgeable people all put away their hearts to watch the excitement before, and were ready to enjoy what kind of songs Li Qing, a singer who dared to ask for 500 yuan a night, could sing?
Driven by these knowledgeable people, slowly, everyone began to face Li Qinglai......
