Chapter 191: "Cats" and "Phantom of the Opera"
"Cats" is one of the most successful musical and dance dramas in the world, and it is loved by audiences, and anyone who loves this art will be deeply immersed in it.
Han Ziguang is still watching it for the first time in the opera house, to be honest, he also feels quite deeply, no way, the picture is so shocking, no wonder it will be liked by so many people, it is basically the longest life in the history of song and dance dramas, I have to say that it is indeed an art.
Wow! Wow! Wow! ……
The revue had just ended, and thousands of spectators applauded and cheered at the same time, which made many people quickly impressed by the actors' performances.
Han Ziguang also unconsciously applauded those actors, to be honest, the song and dance drama is the most testing of acting skills, many actors want to perform on this kind of stage, it is definitely a palace-level feeling, after all, performing on this kind of stage is also a recognition of their acting skills.
"Good! It's really good, I used to just think that this kind of performance was just a form of performance, but now it seems that it is indeed much more difficult than making movies, no wonder these actors have such high requirements, after all, there is no NG in the performance on stage. ”
Han Ziguang also agrees with the evaluation, in his opinion, acting is much more difficult than making movies, he has also made a few movies, even if most of them are in the form of soy sauce, there is no need for acting skills at all, but the stage performance is really different, it can't be repeated at all, and even if it is wrong, it can only be wrong, it is also a very test of the actor's ability to adapt to changes, which is also what he admires the most.
After all, the requirements in filming movies are not particularly high, even if you are wrong, you can do it again, and the stage play is really not good, so the usual training can only be described as terrible, it is a real industry of the jungle, if it doesn't work, it will be eliminated, and there is absolutely no humanity at all.
In this way, Han Ziguang also has a strong interest in song and dance dramas, and he also has his own theater, so he naturally wants to see a better future, after all, once a song and dance drama is popular, it will bring a steady stream of customers, and you can make a lot of money by selling tickets, not to mention that there are many peripheral incomes, which is definitely an income that can make everyone jealous, especially with a fixed source of customers, the income is very stable.
Han Ziguang carefully calculated, the theater he owned, can be transformed into two floors of seats, the original 3,000-seat theater, can be expanded to more than 5,000 seats, even if there are only two performances a day, 5,000 people per show, each ticket price is 5 pounds, then at the end of the day, just the box office can earn 50,000 pounds, of which deducting the cost, probably the income should be about 30,000 pounds, not counting all kinds of peripheral income, the net income will definitely not be less than 80,000 pounds a day, Then the income of a month is 2.4 million pounds, and the income of a year is more than 20 million pounds, and there are also 100 million or 200 million Hong Kong dollars, which is definitely equivalent to the income of many theaters in Hong Kong.
Of course, this is calculated according to the best results, after all, it is impossible to perform every day for a month, and it is impossible to reach 5,000 spectators every time, even so, as long as the show is good, it is definitely a lot of income.
The income is often proportional to the initial investment, and if you want to make the theater really attractive to the audience, you also need to renovate it, basically need to carry out a renovation, at least it will take a few months, if you want to open, it is estimated that you will have to wait until a month after the Spring Festival!
This is completely acceptable to Han Ziguang, not to mention anything else, the script in the early stage, as well as the training of actors, are very time-consuming costs, and it is not easy to run a theater, so it is the last word that you must choose a good script.
Han Ziguang still knows a little about the screenwriter of "Cats", after all, this is a real powerful person, and he paid for Andrew. Weber wrote a script for himself, it is indeed a little difficult, but the original copyright of "The Phantom of the Opera" has been taken by himself, and if it is changed into a script, it is definitely a very smooth thing, and in the future, the copyright of "The Phantom of the Opera" will still belong to himself, and others who want to stage it also need to pay copyright tax for themselves, which is a charm in the cultural world, once there is a famous work, then you can make money lying down.
It's really beautiful to think about, and Andrew. Webber is the hottest time now, after all, with "Cats" beginning to be staged all over the world, it is also a reason for the original author's Andrew. Webb, who became intrigued, also made Andrew . Webber's worth has risen, but even so, there are many people who will Andrew . Webb became a sweetheart, and he wanted to make Andrew . Webb wrote a script for himself.
Of course, Han Ziguang does not deny it, in fact, he also wants to do so, and he has the copyright in his hands, and he is not afraid of Andrew. Webb didn't agree, after all, as the screenwriter of "The Phantom of the Opera", Andrew . Webb is also enthusiastic about this play.
After leaving the New London Theater, Han Ziguang took a deep breath, the situation at this time was still full of a feeling for him, it was a feeling of being deeply shocked, and at the same time, he swore in his heart that he must do this well.
When Han Ziguang and others slowly walked to the theater he owned, his brows couldn't help jumping, before he entered just now, his theater was unbearable, and now it has completely changed, it is like it has been renovated, especially the signboard that was originally demolished, has been replaced with a new signboard, with English and Chinese double standard door plates, light and shadow theater, people have to admire the mafia's methods.
"Mr. Han! Are you already optimistic? This is a gift from our young master for you, I hope you can like it. ”
Robert glanced at Han Ziguang, with a slight smile, he spent a little time with Han Ziguang, and he still had some appreciation for Han Ziguang, it was really rare for a young man to achieve such great results at a young age, and he had no frame at all.
"Edward really has a heart! Yes, I like it very much, this is also my first job in London, and I hope that everyone will take care of it in the future, after all, I can't be in London for a long time, and if there is any problem, it is impossible to deal with it at the first time. ”
After Han Ziguang came into contact with the mafia, he felt that it was not as terrifying as the legend, and there was even a little bit of the atmosphere of the rivers and lakes, which made him feel as if he was watching a movie, and at the same time, he also felt that there was a qualitative gap between those old boys in Xiangjiang and the mafia.
Of course, Han Ziguang also understands that there are some reasons why he has been treated so well, after all, if the cooperation is really successful, it will be billions or tens of billions of dollars in money exchanges, which is definitely an unimaginable wealth, and Edward will naturally be cautious.
