Chapter 10: Angels
Early the next morning, Aoyama was woken up by the sound of washing, and struggled to get up and looked up, it turned out that Erin had already gotten up. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Seeing Aoyama's appearance, Erin said apologetically: "I'm sorry to wake you up, because I have to meet a new leader in the company today, so I have to leave early." ”
"Well, then, are you leaving?" said Aoyama sneeringly.
Erin nodded: "That's right, this has to go, otherwise it will be too late." I had a great time last night, and it's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Aoyama. With that, she pushed open the door and walked out.
In fact, Qingshan's original intention was to want a phone number, but when he thought about it, the two of them were just *** yesterday, and if he was too entangled, it didn't seem very straightforward. But it didn't take five minutes for Aoyama to regret it, because even in New York, there are not many beautiful women like Erin who have good looks and figures, and if you miss it this time, you may never have the opportunity to meet it again in the future.
With this feeling of regret, Aoyama came to the company, and today was the day to arrange an office and administrative assistant for him, but when he just walked into the vice president's office, he was immediately stunned, because the vice president pointed to a tall and beautiful blonde next to him and introduced him: "Section Manager Aoyama, this is Erin, and she will be responsible for assisting you in your work in New York in the future." ”
That's right, this Erin is the drunk girl who spent the night crazy with her last night and just left this morning, it seems that God treats herself well, and the spring in New York is beckoning to her, so Aoyama with a happy mood, stepped forward and greeted: "Hello, Miss Irene, I hope we will cooperate happily in the future!"
Broadway, this street cut diagonally through Manhattan, Times Square is located between 47 and 57 Broadway West, which is the "holy place" in the hearts of global stage performers, here in just ten blocks there are more than 40 theaters, the glory and frustration of Times Square, but also a large flow of investment hotspots.
According to the custom here, new musical and dance dramas will apply to investors for performance sponsorship, and if the show becomes an instant hit, investors can get rich overnight, otherwise, they will end up with nothing. In other words, the adventurous American Dream is being played out on this street all the time!
In one corner of the house, there is a theater called "Viscof", and Panasonic is preparing to build a huge neon sign with the company's name in front of the old theater, which is located in the front of the lobby on the second floor of the theater, which can be said to be quite eye-catching.
Tomoo Mizuguchi, the head of the Outdoor Advertising Division, was in charge of the project, while Takeshi Aoyama, who had just been transferred to New York, was in charge of assisting Mizuguchi in handling the project.
"How about it, Section Chief Aoyama, this idea is good, such a big neon sign, when the theater intermission, the audience will go to the hall on the second floor to rest, at this time the neon flashes, and the name of our company will appear in front of their eyes. Mizuguchi said triumphantly.
"The publicity effect is good, but will it cause disgust?" said Aoyama Takeshi with some hesitation.
"Don't worry, it won't be. Shuikou patted his chest and said, then raised his hand and looked at his watch: "Oh, it's time for lunch, let's go, Qingshan, let's eat together, it just so happens that I will take you to meet someone." ”
Originally, Aoyama thought that Shuikou would take him to meet a certain customer, but he didn't expect it to be a woman, and it was a very beautiful woman, but the temperament was some, how to say it, anyway, Aoyama felt a little uncomfortable.
Just when Aoyama was thinking wildly, Mizuguchi introduced: "Let me introduce you, this is the manager of Changwu of Pres Agency, Clara - Miss Cher." Speaking of which, the neon contract was finalized thanks to her help. ”
Clara covered her mouth and smiled: "NO, NO, Zhixiong's credit is the greatest, I'm just an errand runner." ”
"Well, what kind of business is the Preece brokerage company engaged in?" Aoyama asked puzzled.
"It's an agency that specializes in PR for new revues, using media such as newspapers, television, posters, and so on. Clara explained slowly, and then looked at Mizuguchi and continued warmly: "I met Jixiong through a photographer when I was making the poster, and then we became friends. ”
"Actually, she's my woman now. Mizuguchi whispered proudly. "Yes, she's smart, beautiful, and has her own career, which is rare in Japan. ”
"That's, that's, Mr. Mizuguchi really has a vision. Aoyama said insincerely.
"You're still single, do you want me to introduce you to a woman?"
Takeshi Aoyama waved his hand again and again: "No, no, let's talk about it after I get used to working in New York." Then, in order to divert the topic, Takeshi Aoyama took the initiative to ask Clara, "Miss Clara, how does the musical need to be promoted?"
After Clara's popular science, Takeshi Aoyama learned that it would take at least two to three years for a musical to be staged from planning to staging, and that after the producer had done a preparatory performance at the local theater, if he felt that it was feasible, he began to negotiate with the theater on Broadway to obtain the qualification to perform in the theater on Broadway.
Of course, in the production process, the most important thing is to raise funds, which generally come from investors, also known as sponsors. The distribution system is somewhat similar to that of a joint-stock company, and the distribution of performance proceeds depends on how much money the patron invests. Speaking of which, this kind of investment is even riskier than stocks, because if it doesn't sell out, then not only will it not make a profit, but you won't even get back the capital.
Speaking of this, Clara handed Takeshi Aoyama a booklet and said softly, "Mr. Aoyama, please take a look at this." ”
"Angel?" Takeshi Aoyama asked, reading the two big characters on the first page of the roster, puzzled.
"This is the patron's roster, which records how much so-and-so has invested in a certain play, and for the producer of a musical, isn't the person who can provide the money as cute as an angel!" Clara explained with a smile.
"But how many of these operas make money?" asked Takeshi Aoyama with a frown, although he didn't know much about musical, but in his impression, it seemed that there weren't many famous people who made money.
Sure enough, Clara sighed and replied leisurely: "It's a pity that this world is cruel, and the blockbusters are indeed not ******* S: New Book Period, continue to ask for collections and recommendation tickets!"
