Chapter 272: Virtuous? This is Chiguoguo's slander!
PS: Strongly thank shashazhuzhu for your great reward, it's not easy to have a sincere heart every day! It's so good to look at!
In 2006, there was no direct flight from Shanghai to New York, and every time you need to transfer flights, either in Beijing, or in Hong Kong, Tokyo or other airports in the United States, but the most cost-effective and easiest is at Beijing Airport, after all, you don't need to apply for temporary visas and other things.
After boarding the plane surrounded by other passengers, the plane quickly took off and flew to Beijing, and then two hours later, it took them another two hours to transfer to a direct flight to New York.
"I can finally get a good night's sleep! I can't imagine that it's so tiring to turn around! ”
As soon as he sat down, Brother Chic couldn't help but stretch, he was busy at Beijing Airport for two hours just now! It's really exhausting.
Yes, others are waiting, but he is busy greeting all kinds of fans and reporters.
This is not a joke, because there are more than a dozen of his fans on this flight, and there are more than a dozen reporters from major media across the country, all of whom are going to follow Brother Chic to the United States.
Hearing them say this at that time, Brother Xiao was really stunned for a few seconds, feeling a little unbelievable.
You know, he's going to perform in the United States! The reporter followed him to the United States, which can be understood to be for work, and he did not have to spend the reporter's own money! However, it costs fans at least 8,000 oceans to go back and forth, which is a bit puzzling!
Moreover, what moved him even more was. These fans actually had tickets to the show that night. That is, they will go to the scene to watch their own performances. This undoubtedly touched him deeply.
It costs at least 12,000 yuan before and after (including tickets, accommodation and round-trip air tickets), just to see his performance with his own eyes, and with the deep friendship of all the members of the Chic Gang in China, who dares to say that this kind of support is not big?
Brother Chic was immediately moved to a sour nose, and without saying a word, he left everyone an autograph and a separate group photo, and then used the laptop he carried to log on to his blog, uploaded a group photo of himself and them on it, and then wrote a sincere thank you:
"I found out today. It turns out that you have paid so much to support me, I am really honored to be your idol, thank you to all the fans, no matter whether you will continue to support me in the future, I am also deeply grateful to everyone, I promise to always remember your friendship, work harder, and become an international superstar that everyone wants to see as soon as possible, so that I and the name of the dashing gang will spread all over Shijie. Become a group of excellent partners who shine all over the world. ”
After posting the blog, he shook hands cordially with every fan. Then I patiently listened to the opinions and suggestions of every fan, and of course answered some questions that fans were very interested in.
After chatting with the fans for a while, fellow reporters also poured in, and they all hurried to take pictures and ask questions, as if they were worried that someone would get angry and not cooperate, and everyone's questions were also harmonious, and they didn't involve anything outside the show.
A reporter from Southern Metropolis Daily asked him: "Asia's top performing artists will encounter things in Europe and the United States, Tang Xiaosa, do you think you can overcome this problem?" ”
Brother Chic smiled confidently: "Of course I have confidence, because the program I want to perform is international, such as magic and dance, imitation, and performance, all shijie are the same, everyone is no stranger, and my English is also passable, so there is no so-called cultural barrier." ”
His answer was obviously very reassuring, and the reporters no longer bothered about this question, and then another reporter asked: "When other domestic artists go to the United States, the audience is usually Chinese American Americans, and I heard that there are less than 500 Chinese audiences in your performance, and there are even audiences from Europe and Oceania, do you have anything to say about this?" ”
Just kidding, how can other people compare with my brother? Not to mention anything else, at least language performance artists, even if they are good in China, they will definitely not be liked by pure expatriates, because the cultural differences are really too big.
Brother Chic immediately smiled: "I can only say that I am more international pioneer~!" Because in the eyes of European and American audiences, I am a performer who can make them understand the content of the performance and make them feel shocked, which is something that other performers have no choice but to do, because the cultural differences between the East and the West do exist. ”
……
After accepting some questions from reporters, the direct flight was finally ready, so everyone boarded the plane together, and the next step was a slow long-distance journey.
Gao Yan sat next to Brother Xiaoxiao, and then the front and back rows happened to be several staff members sent to China by Vinigana, both white and black, and the leader of them was a co-manager of this company, named Ames. Howard.
At this time, I saw him turn his head and ask with a smile: "Tang, can you tell me more about what kind of programs your performance will have?" Because of your secrecy, many radio and television stations in the United States have been discussing this topic recently, and there is also a prize quiz, and the most valuable champion will get you a ticket to the twelfth gear, which is now on the market for $15,000, but you can't buy it at all! ”
"Oh? Are tickets so expensive? ”
Brother Chic's eyes widened instantly, and he glanced at Ames in disbelief: "Could it be that there are a lot of people grabbing tickets?" How could such a thing happen? ”
You know, his twelfth tier seat ticket is only priced at $4,999, but now it has risen to $15,000, which is more than three times! It's almost 120,000 yuan when it is converted to RMB.
Gao Yan is also strongly concerned about this issue, because he really didn't expect that such an expensive ticket price could still skyrocket several times, if this question is heard by those people in China who are still shouting "black heart", they must be scared to death!
Hehe, you bastards said that Tang Xiao was black-hearted, but look at it, his current ticket price has skyrocketed several times! That proves that your vision is really too old, and you still think it's the era of Jihua economy?
Ames spread his hands and smiled: "Tang, I think you should go to the second-hand ticket website stubhub to have a look, there are too many people asking for your tickets now, they are not only from the United States and Europe, but even South America and Asia, especially the buyers of Duwan and Xiangjiang are very large, they are happy to increase the price on the original ticket price by 5 times, but they still can't buy tickets." ”
"Hey, let me ask, scalpers...... Oh no, what about your domestic ticketing economy? They weishenme still don't shoot? Hoarding should be very profitable by now, right? Gao Yan asked with some confusion.
There are no scalpers in the United States, but they have a ticket economy like scalpers, although the names are different, they can do exactly the same work, they are all grabbing votes and hoarding them, and then transferring them at a high price for profit.
Brother Chic also nodded and said, "That's right, the appreciation has been so much, what if Weishenme doesn't make a move?" Do you still want to stay until Zuihou for a moment? ”
Ames laughed, he shook his head and said, "Hehe, I think you should thank us for this question, you know?" It is precisely because our pricing is too expensive that no one in the ticketing economy dares to rush to buy it, for fear of really smashing it in their hands, as a result, many ordinary viewers have bought tickets at a fair price, and the ticketing economy has gotten a small fraction at most, and let it go early. ”
"Haha, that's a good joke!"
Brother Xiao and Gao Yan both laughed, they were very happy that the scalpers did not harm more people, because the ticket price itself is very high, if you are made several times more by the scalpers, obediently, this is too much to say, right?
Ames also laughed and said: "That's right, so experts from Harvard Business School in the United States are considering our high-price strategy, and he even suggested that all ticketing companies should raise ticket prices, so as not to feel that the ticketing economy has an opportunity, so that this illegal scalping behavior will never be effectively curbed." ”
Brother Chic didn't care whether this kind of proposal would be promoted and recognized, he whispered: "My program list will be handed over to your president in person, it is expected that there will be 6 categories of programs, but the most are magic performances and imitation performances, and then there are interspersed dunks, kung fu, dance and singing, etc., you can now participate in the lottery!" ”
"Thank you very much for informing us, and if you win, I will definitely invite you to the most haode nightclub in New York to relax! There are some of the best chicks in the whole of America, and I promise you'll find something to your liking. ”
Ames smiled and thanked him, and gave a hint that a man understands.
It's no wonder he's so happy, you know, there are not just one or two radio and television stations that have launched prize quizzes this time, but dozens of newspapers, magazines and online portals, but the prizes given are different. The total value is at least nearly $50,000, which is equivalent to 1/8 of Ames's annual salary.
Eh, this thank you is not sensitive, brother doesn't like to go to that kind of place!
Brother Chic hurriedly shook his head and rejected this heart-warming hint, although he also wanted to see the alluring style of European and American Persian cats, and it could be regarded as experiencing the feelings of watching European and American infantry films back then, but he still remembered that his identity was different, not to mention the problem of infection, if it was stolen ~ and exposed, that kind of scene would probably ......
"Don, you're such a good man!" Ames gave a thumbs up and praised: "NBA stars and gentlemen like this way of relaxing, often hanging out in various high-end service clubs, but you are different from them, I think you are a gentleman with high morals, and you Chinese men are as admirable as Yao in Houston!" ”
"Uh, Xiexie, I think I need some sleep!"
Brother Chic smiled a little bitterly, do you know how much my brother wants to see the style of the blonde Persian cat? actually praised me for my noble morals, this is Chiguoguo's slander! (To be continued......)
