() The singer salon is very easy to understand and relatively easy to do, gather some singers together, engage in party activities or something.±, the salon's statement sounds lofty, but in fact, it is nothing more than a name, if it is said to be a Shencheng singer association, it will not be much different.

But publishing an album is not that simple.

After the calculation just now, if you want to publish an album of ordinary quality, you will base it on 100,000. What kind of way does Zhang Lei have to make these singers in the salon raise so much money?

You must know that this is not a small amount, it is equivalent to the average total salary of an ordinary person in Shencheng for 20 years. If you don't have the money, then how can you publish an album?

Zhang Lei seemed to be very sure.

"Xiao Yezi, I've been thinking about this matter for a long time, and after talking to you today, I feel more confident in my heart." Zhang Lei smiled and said, "However, you must help me in this matter." ”

"Tell me first, I still haven't figured out what you're trying to do." Ye Zi didn't agree to come down in one bite. It is true that Zhang Lei is his friend, but it is too early and rash to draw conclusions before the matter is clearly understood.

If he can help, Ye Zi will definitely help him. But if he knew it was a fire pit, how could Ye Zi help him? Pulling him up is the reason to be friends.

"Okay, listen to me." Zhang Lei smiled slightly.

"Xiao Yezi, you know that I have always performed in night shows, in fact, many singers in night clubs want to have their own solo albums." Zhang Lei said slowly: "My idea is related to us night singers. ”

"Night singers make a lot of money, but they can't afford the cost of production and publicity, right?" Ye Zi immediately pointed out this, which was an extremely obvious thing.

Take Zhang Lei himself as an example, his current 150 yuan per game is already the highest salary in Shencheng's night game, and it is only 4,500 yuan a month. Even if he runs two more races a day. The three fields together are only less than 15,000. He still has to eat and drink himself, and it is quite good to be able to save 10,000 yuan a month, and it will take nearly a year to save enough money. There can't be anything big enough to cost money.

Zhang Lei is the most top-notch singer in the night scene in Shencheng, he is already like this, and other singers with lower salaries want to save enough money, so I really don't know if they can do it until the Year of the Monkey.

"That's right. Relying solely on our own strength or savings, I am afraid that it is difficult to afford the funds to produce zuò albums. Zhang Lei nodded and took a deep breath: "So I thought of a way, if it is feasible, the source of funds for us singers to make albums in the future...... Maybe there is a certain amount of protection. ”

"Really? Is that...... What's the solution? Ye Zi was taken aback.

Raising money is extremely difficult in any era, especially before the results are made. Zhang Lei actually said that he had already thought of a way to raise funds for the production of the zuò album, to be honest, Ye Zi didn't believe it very much.

In this era when there are not many 10,000 households. If you want to raise about 100,000 yuan for an album, once in a while, it may be possible, but if you want to do it for a long time, Ye Zi can't think of any way at all.

Is Zhang Lei okay?

"My solution is actually quite simple." Zhang Lei smiled slightly, smiling confidently and calmly: "That is to concentrate the strength of our singers and do this collectively." ”

"Zhang Lei, I don't fully understand, what do you mean...... Pooling money to make a record? Ye Zihu asked suspiciously.

"Fundraising?" Zhang Lei pondered for a moment. Shook his head: "Xiao Yezi, I understand what you mean by this fundraising." But my vision is different, so let me tell you more about it. ”

"Okay, then you can tell me more." Ye Zi frowned slightly. It is not illegal to raise funds in this era, if Zhang Lei really has the ability to raise funds to make an album, this is actually a way.

But this is a dangerous road after all, and if one is not good, it will be shattered.

"Here's what I think." Zhang Lei looked focused: "First set up a singer salon. This salon is mainly for night singers, and of course, I wouldn't object to other singers joining me. ”

"This thing will be done soon after the opening of the metropolis in the new year." Zhang Lei lit a cigarette and took a hard puff. continued: "Xiao Yezi, you don't know, in fact, there are a lot of people who come and go between night singers, because everyone is basically familiar with the running field or something, and they will often meet each other when they eat supper, so it is not difficult to have such a salon." ”

"I believe that." Of course, Ye Zi knew this: "So what next?" What are you going to do? ”

"My purpose in holding this salon is to gather a group of people after screening. My assumption is that twenty to fifty people will be enough, and no more is necessary. Zhang Lei continued to talk about his vision.

"Well, you go ahead."

"The selection of this group of people is very important." Zhang Lei thought very carefully: "They must have singing skills that are no worse than mine, they must have a strong desire to publish their own albums, and they must also have a relatively fixed position and a relatively stable income in the Shencheng night market." ”

"And then? You've got people in, how do you help them make an album? The more Ye Zi listened, the worse the feeling in his heart became.

Zhang Lei took a breath: "Then it was to the key place." I didn't have much confidence in these places, but when I heard you say this today, I feel more confident in my heart. ”

Cui Zhengguang listened for a long time, but Zhang Lei still didn't get to the point, he was anxious: "Lao Zhang, what are you rubbing, hurry up and tell me how you want to solve this funding problem." ”

"Borrow money." Zhang Lei said confidently: "If you want to make an album, you will borrow money from people in the salon. It takes a year to repay, three times the bank interest, I believe that these people will be willing to borrow, helping others is helping themselves. In the future, when he wants to make an album himself, he can also borrow money in the same way. ”

"I'll try it myself. As long as there is success in the first time, it will be easy to follow up. ”

Speaking of which, Zhang Lei is full of confidence.

Ye Zi and Cui Zhengguang looked at each other.

With a bitter smile in his heart, Ye Zi said: "Zhang Lei, you are raising funds, I am no different." ”

"It's different." Zhang Lei shook his head and smiled: "We are borrowing money from each other. It's just a matter of arranging the order in which things are carried out, and no one only borrows money from others and does not lend money to others. I won't absorb someone like that. ”

"Also, everyone who wants to make an album, including myself. You must first make at least two songs for everyone else to listen to, and everyone must raise their hands to vote on the guò before proceeding with the following steps of borrowing money. ”

"And the most important thing."

"After the album is published, after deducting the debt, the singer who made the album should take a percentage of the album's income as the input of other singers to make the album later, that is, to lend it to others."

In this way, the more you get to the later albums, the more secure it will be. So I've decided that I'm going to do this for the first time myself. ”

"Little leaves. I need your help! ”

Hey? The latter ones are still really interesting. Ye Zi voted in favor of Zhang Lei's plan for the first time in his heart.

But there are too many problems with this plan itself!

Cui Zhengguang pursed his lips and said bluntly: "Lao Zhang, I don't want to hit you, there are too many variables in your plan." I'll just ask you, even if you borrow money, the album will be made. What if sales aren't good? ”

"It's very likely to happen. According to the money you just calculated, the result is an album of ordinary quality. Then there will definitely be a sales risk. ”

"In other words, what if you lose money?"

Ye Zi praised it in his heart, and Cui Zhengguang asked directly about the root.

The basis for Zhang Lei's plan to proceed smoothly is that these albums can make money. As soon as there is an album that can't make money, the thread is immediately broken.

"Xiao Yezi just said that now is the best time for the record market." Zhang Lei still has confidence: "It is precisely because of such conditions. That's what I'm sure to do. Of course, there is a possibility of losing money, but I don't think it's very big. ”

"What if?" Ye Zi immediately asked: "Zhang Lei, if you want to do this, you can't put the foundation of doing things on luck, right?" ”

"Taking a step back, even if Zhang Lei's album can make money, the borrowed money will be repaid. I and I believe you can do that. But what about others? ”

"Once there is an album loss. What to do? ”

Zhang Lei suddenly smiled, smiling very happily.

"Little leaf, big head, thank you both." Zhang Lei raised the coffee in his hand and gestured: "You recognize me as a friend to think about me like this, thank you." ”

"In my imagination, everyone borrows money for albums, and once they really lose, they can only blame themselves, and the debts they owe must be repaid by themselves."

"I have to carefully screen the people who join the salon, that's why I want to. can be on par with my singing skills, then there is a certain guarantee in the singing quality of the album. There is a fixed position in the night show, and even if the album loses money, it will be able to repay the money borrowed, but it will take a little time. ”

"The main thing is that everyone in the salon has a strong desire to make their own albums, so when there is a problem, it is more negotiable. Even if the album loses money and owes money, they won't push each other too hard. ”

"Xiao Yezi, big head, I've thought about this matter very carefully." Zhang Lei said very seriously: "You may not know very well that among the more than 1,000 singers in the night club in Shencheng, almost everyone wants to publish their own solo album. ”

"If there is an opportunity to publish an album, even if you end up in debt, there will be many people who are willing to do it."

"We night singers are not taken seriously, if we don't fight hard like this, who will give us a chance for nothing?"

Zhang Lei's last words made Ye Zi feel very deeply. In his previous life, Ye Zi was mixed in the night market, and Ye Zi recognized what Zhang Lei said.

But Zhang Lei's plan is almost full of flaws, and Ye Zi can now be sure that this plan will face collapse after a year of implementation at most.

It is not enough to base the plan on luck, and Zhang Lei also hopes that the solution to the contradiction after the album fails on the mutual understanding of the salon members, which is really not like a method that a person who wanders in the night club can come up with. Where can human nature withstand such a test in the face of interests?

If you really want to do this, Zhang Lei, the initiator of the salon, is definitely a thousand people, and those who borrow money and owe money will be very dissatisfied, and what he will end up with will definitely be a completely broken and exhausted heart.

Zhang Lei himself doesn't have to worry about the album, even if he publishes it at his own expense, he is very sure, Ye Zi and they will definitely help him to the end. His starting point is just to really want to provide a stage for these singers who lack opportunities in the night club to work hard.

In the materialistic real world, this is a rare feeling.

Seeing that his friend was about to fall into a sinister pit, Ye Zi couldn't be indifferent.

His brain was racing. (To be continued.) )
