Chapter 95: Going to the Cave (1)

November 24th, another Sunday.

"The Sound of the Waves" won the championship again with a record-breaking 11,955 votes on the "Pop Song Chart" that night.

Among the other songs, Principal Tan's "Undying Love" is in obvious decline, and it has retreated to the last place in the top ten this week, and it is estimated that it will drop out of the top ten next week.

Mainland pop songs have maintained their recent strength, especially several of Ye Zi's works, all of which have entered the top five.

At the bottom of the list is Zhang Lei's song "How to Say Love", which ranked fifth this week, but this new song has been on the list for a short time, and there is no chance to continue to move forward.

The new song "Late Autumn" came quickly, rising two more places in its third week on the list and ranking fourth this week. This is another mainland masterpiece that is very likely to reach the championship.

Zeng Chun's "Sing If You Want to Sing" rose in the ranking this week, rising from fourth last week to second place, and Zeng Chun himself was also happy.

Last week's second-ranked "Sun's Reddest Chairman's Dearest" lacked upward momentum this week, dropping from second to seventh. However, this song still has a lot of potential.

Jiang and Taiwan songs are collectively weak this week, and the best result is Mei Yanfang's "It Seems to Be an Old Man", which ranks third this week. The strength of the eldest sister in the Xiangjiang music scene is definitely not to be underestimated.

Although mainland pop songs have dominated the charts in the past two weeks, there are many singers in Jiangsu and Taiwan, and they are by no means so lightly defeated.

This battle has just begun, and it is still unknown who will kill the deer.

However, for Ye Zi, the two consecutive championships on the ranking have made his popularity and popularity rise sharply.

In some areas of Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces where you can listen to and watch Shencheng Radio and Shencheng TV in Shencheng and the surrounding areas, Ye Zi began to become really popular.

Ye Zi can clearly feel his popularity.

Not to mention the classmates who stare at him at school, or the fans who ask for autographs and photos that he will meet every once in a while walking on the street, let's just say that every singer will inevitably encounter after becoming popular - invitations to commercial performances have increased recently.

In fact, in the current era, there are very few real commercial performances, unlike later generations, where there are many commercial performances of various categories. In this day and age, commercial performances would be more accurately described in another word, and that is to go to the hole.

A while ago, Ye Zi focused all his energy on the production of the "Top Ten Selections" program and the list of new songs, and he didn't have time to participate in commercial performances at all. The subsequent MTV shooting could not be delayed, and it was impossible to go out to perform.

But now, in addition to making some preparations for the new songs of the album, Ye Zi has nothing else to do for the time being. Therefore, Sun Yun believes that if there is a suitable opportunity, he can go out to perform a few shows, which can not only increase some income to supplement the increasing expenses of playing lists in various places, but also exercise his stage performance experience, which is very beneficial to Ye Zi.

Of course, Ye Zi himself would not object. Performance, it's a little bit of sprinkling water.

――――――――――

This small amount of money was originally owned by the Opera and Dance Theater, and later resigned to start his own performance company. I've met him a few times and my impression is okay. Ni Jun said on the phone.

In the case that the company is not on the right track, Ni Jun will be responsible for coordinating the performance for the time being. In other words, Ni Jun is currently Ye Zi's temporary agent. This time, someone called to find Ni Jun, hoping that Ye Zi would be able to go out with the group once.

"It's good that you've worked with him, and you know the roots. Then I'll take the time to go with him. Ye Zi's answer was also very simple: "Teacher Ni, have you talked to him about the venue fee?" ”

"I just wanted to talk to you about it." Ni Jun said: "He asked me to quote to him, I don't think clearly, and I don't know how much the specific offer is more appropriate." So that's not what I'm asking you. ”

"Then do you know that his activity this time is in Shencheng or will he go to other provinces and cities? Is it a theater show or a gymnasium? Ye Zi asked for details.

Ni Jun smiled: "I really didn't ask." Why don't I give you the phone number for his office, and you can ask for it yourself? I really don't understand these things. ”

Ye Zi shook his head on the phone: "Teacher Ni, now he wants to find me to perform, he should take the initiative to tell you about these things." ”

"Huh?" Ni Jun is not stupid, and after thinking about it, he understands that it should be this truth: "Well, you are right, then ・・・・・・ you think of this matter?" ”

"That's it, Teacher Ni," Ye Zi is very clear about the mentality of these "agents", Ni Jun doesn't understand the Tao here, he is clear.

"Give him my phone number here. You tell him that I'm not home until after 8 p.m. and not at any other time. If there's anything he can call me directly, I'll talk to him. ”

Ye Zi directly took over this matter. Ni Jun and Sun Yun don't know much about the circle of performances, and they can't be this agent, so let's come by myself.

However, the agent should also find a suitable person to be responsible. Although for the time being, the performance market in the mainland is not standardized, and there is little use for agents. However, the company will have to be exposed to the Asian market and the international market in the future, and it will definitely need to use brokers at that time. It's too late to train now.

――――――――――

At 8:05 p.m., the phone rang punctually.

As soon as Ye Zi saw this time, he had a bottom in his heart.

"Hey, hello." Ye Zi picked up the phone.

The voice on the phone was very thick and full of energy: "Is it Teacher Ye Zi's house?" I'm looking for Mr. Ye Zi. ”

"I'm Ye Zi, who are you?"

"Oh, hello Mr. Ye Zi, I'm Qian Liren. Teacher Ni Jun should have told you, right? ”

"Well, I just talked about it, but Mr. Ni didn't say anything specific."

"That's right." Qian Liren hesitated on the phone, and then said, "Teacher Ye Zi, I don't know what your current offer is?" I'll see if this event can be arranged. ”

"Oh, the offer・・・・・・ Ye Zi smiled secretly in his heart: "Teacher Qian, then you have to tell me first, what is the nature of your performance this time?" Is it in Shencheng or is it going to be out of town? And what is the performance venue like? I don't know if it's a theater or an open-air or a gymnasium, so I can't give you a quote. ”

On the phone, Qian Liren obviously paused, and then he continued twice: "Hehe, it's my fault, it's my fault." Yes, Mr. Ye Zi, I was invited by Kuncheng Aquatic Products Company to hold two evenings for their hairy crab harvest in Yangcheng Lake this year, at the Kuncheng People's Theater, on the 31st of this month and the 1st of December, what do you ・・・・・・think? ”

"Kuncheng, Suzhou Province? That's out of Shen City. Ye Zi pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Teacher Qian, besides me, are there any other singers participating in this performance?" Which big name was invited for the finale? ”

"I didn't invite a big name this time." Qian Liren replied immediately. Just kidding, a performance invites big names and doesn't invite big names, and the appearance fees of other actors are completely different: "It's that their company itself came forward to invite Sister Mao Mao to participate, and the actors I invite here are mainly teachers from the Shanghai opera industry, the Yue opera industry, and Su Cheng Pingdan, as well as two burlesques and some other actors." Singing popular is just you and the 'twin' sisters. ”

"Twins" sister combination? Hehe, they also participated? This performance is really interesting.

Ye Zi thought about it for a while, and then quoted his preliminary intention price: "Teacher Qian, you are a friend of Teacher Ni, I don't ask you for more, you can give 10,000 integers for two performances." ”

"Ouch, Mr. Ye Zi, I'm going to pay for this price myself." Qian Liren immediately began to cry poorly: "This Kuncheng is on the edge of Shencheng, but it is not a foreign place, and this performance is not sold to the outside world, it is their company's own employees and families." Do you think ・・・・・・ can the price be cheaper? ”

This price is Ye Zi's tentative price, which is a little inflated, but it is not much different.

Ye Zi is very familiar with this place in Kuncheng, which is a famous top 100 county in the country and is very wealthy. Its aquatic company was quite profitable in the early 90s, and for several years in a row, it would invite some celebrities to perform at the end of the year, and the remuneration was getting higher and higher year by year. Ye Zi had participated in it several times in his previous life, and he had a deep feeling for the generosity and enthusiasm of Kuncheng people. The offer that Ye Zi is giving now has not made any money at most, and it is impossible to do it with money.

"Then Mr. Qian, you can also give me an offer." Ye Zi's offer was originally waiting for the other party to counteroffer.

Qian Liren had obviously thought about it a long time ago, and immediately gave his price: "Teacher Ye Zi, you see if this will work." I will sing two songs for each show, I will give you a total of 4,000 yuan for the two performances, and I will reimburse you for the round-trip taxi fare, what do you think? ”

"The price is too low." Ye Zi didn't even think about it and immediately refused: "Sister Maomao's current appearance fee is at least 15,000 yuan, of course I can't compare with Sister Maomao now, but at present, I also have two songs on the charts, and two thousand is too low." ”

"Teacher Qian, why don't you ・・・・・・ us cooperate next time?"

――――――――――

ps: In 1991, the price of the acupuncture performance was not so high, and the big names in the finale were only three or five thousand. Similar to the protagonist Ye Zi in the book, a singer who has just become popular, it would be good if the performance fee could be in the thousands, and it should generally be around eight hundred. The soaring performance fee will not be until around 95 years, and at that time, the performance fee of 20,000 or 30,000 yuan can often be seen.

But writing a book was a bit too low at the price at the time. Therefore, the author doubled the performance fee at that time, so that it was easier to operate.

Friends who are familiar with the market at that time should not spray me.
