Chapter 800 Rich Ruth (22)

"Rich!"

On the morning of Yang Qian's concert in Hong Kong City, Shi Mo picked up her friend from afar, Rich Ruth, at the airport.

Rich Ruth is a little old man with blond hair and white beard who was born in Germany but has been working and living in the United States.

He has one of the most striking features, that is the particularly well-groomed Van Dyke beard. Although the roots are all white, this way can still give people a sense of joy of a Santa Claus with a short beard. !
"My dear Shimo. After receiving your email, I immediately turned off other things and rushed over to book the plane ticket! I hope I didn't miss it." (Note: This is in English, but for everyone's reading experience, Just replace it with Chinese.)
Rich Ruth hugged Shimo affectionately.

What he said was not an exaggeration at all, it was indeed Shi Mo who sent him an email yesterday, and attached a video of Yang Qian’s rehearsal scene, which aroused his great interest, and immediately took a flight across the ocean, from the United States rushed over.

Of course, if there was no video, Rich Ruth would be equally interested in Yang Qian, because he had heard Shi Mo sing the song "Sailing" and heard about Yang Qian's situation from Shi Mo.

"No, you came in time. Come with me, you go to the hotel to rest first, and adjust the jet lag. I believe you will not be disappointed in tonight's concert."

Shi Mo greeted Rich Ruth, and she had already booked a hotel for him.

Don't get me wrong, Rich Ruth is just an old friend of Shi Mo's who has known him for many years.

As early as the last century, Shi Mo met Rich Ruth. At that time, Shi Mo took a hiatus for a while, and then came back to develop in an international direction, and Rich Ruth is the gold medal broker of the top brokerage company in the United States. people.

Although Shi Mo did not sign with Rich Ruth's company, but because of Rich Ruth's appreciation of Shi Mo, the two also have similar preferences in art - for example, Rich Ruth likes rock and roll very much Shi Mo also likes music very much, so the two became very good friends.

Now Rich Ruth has retired, and his age is actually older than Shi Mo.

Before retiring, Rich Ruth was also an executive of that top brokerage company, and it can be said that his ability is very outstanding.

Of course, retirement does not mean that you will do nothing in the future and enjoy fishing every day.

Rich Ruth is very interested in the fast-growing streaming media market, and had done very detailed research before retiring.Now, after withdrawing from the previous brokerage company, Rich Ruth also wants to start a small company and experiment in the streaming media market to see if he can explore some new models.

Last summer, Rich Ruth came to Hong Kong City for tourism. When chatting with Shi Mo, he talked about his thoughts and jokingly asked Shi Mo if he was interested in going to the North American market for a few more years.

Shi Mo had already sung "Sailing" at that time, and he had heard the single. Although it was just a song, he liked this old and charming singing voice very much, and he liked this vicissitudes and profound artistic conception.

It's just a pity that Shi Mo had fulfilled her wish at that time and didn't want to continue to challenge herself.

Rich Ruth wanted to chat with Yang Qian too.

So, the musician who wrote the song "Sailing" is also a very capable singer, what would he think?

What needs to be explained here is that going to the North American market does not mean going to the United States.

Of course, if Shi Mo has time and interest, it will definitely be more convenient to go to the United States.

But what Rich Ruth thinks is an online streaming media model-a new way of playing music that has emerged in the past few years because of the epidemic.

If you don't go to the United States, you can still cooperate!
Shi Mo brought Rich Ruth here because she knew that Rich Ruth's ideas did not conflict with Yang Qian's!
"Thinking about it, it's really a miracle. It was said on Twitter that it was sold out in a second, and a large number of people couldn't get it. We even got two tickets!"

"Actually, it's Yang Qian who is kind! If that kind of combination works with scalpers, you'll be damned if you grab it!"

"Speaking of which, these two tickets actually require a real-name system, double verification by swiping the ID card and swiping the face! Hey, if it weren't for this, I would like to sell it to scalpers, and I think it can be sold at a sky-high price."

"You eat shit! There is no real-name system, and if you sell scalpers, if you have already snatched the scalpers, the scalpers probably took the tickets directly backstage!"

In the evening, outside the Red Pavilion in Hong Kong City, the line for checking tickets and entering the venue formed a long queue.

Because it is a real-name system, and there is no manual ticket checking, you have to swipe your ID card and face to enter, which can prevent scalpers from reselling tickets, but it also brings some troubles to the on-site ticket checking.

Brush your face?

ID card?

With such a high standard, not to mention the audience, even the staff have only seen it while passing the test.

In order to meet Yang Qian’s request—mainly because of the pressure from UMG, and they have actually considered such an operation—the Red Pavilion also specially contacted the equipment manufacturer to add two smart ticket inspection equipment. If the feedback is good, they Of course, additional investment will continue.

If it doesn't work, the manufacturer still has to pull it back, and they are paying rent to try it out.
But with more than 1 spectators at the scene, how can these two devices handle it?

It can only be separated, VIP tickets are still manually checked, and the ticket check-in starts an hour and a half earlier, and the manufacturer's maintenance workers are also on hand, ready to call at any time.

Fortunately, these two devices have withstood the test. Although the order at the scene was a bit chaotic, and everyone was queuing up and suffering, but the luck and joy of being able to buy tickets, and the expectation of Yang Qian's concert, faded Get rid of this anxious mood!

Except for a very small number of spectators who were cheated by the scalpers and bought other people's tickets at a high price but failed to pass the face-scanning test, they finally quarreled outside excitedly and left helplessly and depressed, everyone else entered the venue smoothly!
Rich Ruth took the top VIP ticket for the box, and of course he didn't need to queue up to enter.

Accompanied by Shi Mo, Rich went into the box early.

"Rich, do you need to meet Yang Qian alone?"

Shi Mo asked him.

"I want to see him again after the concert. There may be a lot to communicate with him. It is not appropriate to disturb his concert now."

Rich shook his head smiling.

Shi Mo actually understood that Rich also wanted to see Yang Qian's performance.

Just like a scout in a football game, he heard Shi Mo's admiration for Yang Qian and watched several videos of Yang Qian's performance, but as an old manager, Rich still prefers to use his own Look with your eyes and feel Yang Qian's music.

Let's see if Yang Qian is suitable for me
