Chapter 1011 Acquisition of Orchestra
"The little girl is a little sleepy, why don't you take her to rest? I won't participate in the evening concert."

In Lao Bu's office, Li Yinxin yawned as expected.

It's easy to get sleepy in the car, so I spent the afternoon jumping on the trampoline of Klein's house all afternoon.I didn't feel it when I first got in the car, but when I got out of the car, Carter yelled twice before waking the little girl up.

"It's okay, senior brother, she'll be fine after a while. Come here now, take her to meet you, and then take her down to have a look, go out for a while, and the spirit will be fine!"

The National Mall covers a large area, and it can even be said that this is the general name of an area.Buildings including the White House and the Capitol are located on the National Mall.The Vietnam Veterans Memorial designed by Yale alumnus Maya Lin is also here.

After rubbing the small gifts at Lao Bu's place, Li Yinxin was refreshed as soon as she left the White House!
"Why didn't you tell me that you wanted to see the president, you. If you say that, I won't be able to sleep in the car! I didn't see eye gum in the corner of my eye just now, did I?!"

A small fist hit Carter's body. To the little girl, Old Bu was a big man who lived on TV.When I saw something alive, I was so frightened that I woke up. How could I still feel sleepy? !
"You don't wrong people, I reminded you that you can take a rest first."

"Then you didn't say you wanted to see him"

"Carter?! This."

"My fiancee, Yin Xin, let me introduce you, this is my colleague"

Before the concert was about to start, many guests had already arrived nearby.Like Carter's choice, most people will choose to take their relatives and friends to visit on the green space of the National Mall.

And in this way, Carter can meet more acquaintances.

Walking around and stopping to say hello to colleagues, after this incident, the impression that "you can't do things well without a mouth" will gradually fade away.

Because it is a modified dress, Li Yinxin's dress looks very cool.Once the clothes are cool, they will naturally look sexy.Coupled with the fact that girls develop earlier, and the generosity cultivated by a wealthy family background.

It may be nervous to see Lao Bu, but it is much more natural to see these White House employees!
In the face of these colleagues, Carter will not go into too much detail.For a while, there were people who praised Yin Xin for being young and beautiful, but they suspected that Yin Xin was young, but none of them noticed.

In the evening's Independence Day celebration concert, the performing orchestra is the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra in Rick's hometown.

Carter is no stranger to the orchestra's current conductor: Eric Kunzel.

I still remember my previous life. In 08, Carter, who had just started learning the piano, met this guy on TV after the opening of the Olympics.If I remember correctly, Kongzel, who gave a tribute to the Chinese Olympic Games at the Grand Theater, conducted the Cincinnati Pop Orchestra in front of me!

Perhaps it is because for many years, the conductors of the orchestra are mostly conducted by conductors who have studied in Germany and Austria.The performance of this orchestra also has the characteristics of the German-Austrian style in the ensemble part: the ensemble is exquisite and precise, and the sound of the music is also inclined to a grand and solid feeling.

And when this feeling is used to play relatively popular music, the integration of easy-to-understand and grandeur brings the ultimate audio-visual experience
Carter, who happened to have the idea of ​​buying a band for fun, was instantly moved after listening to the performance.

"I'm afraid the Cincinnati Pop Orchestra is not easy to buy! I know what you think, if you have money, you can raise an orchestra or a football team for fun."

"That's right, some of my friends play football, and I heard that they want to buy an NBA team. But to be honest, I don't think I'm very interested in ball sports, but if I buy a band to play, I'm interested! I've got my eye on it!"

If you want to buy this band, the first step is to find out who the owner of the band is, so you can find someone to negotiate the price.Carter called Rick the next day.

In Carter's mind, as a local snake in Cincinnati, it is not difficult to find out the information about the band's affiliation.Unexpectedly, buying an orchestra is far more troublesome than I thought.
"I understand, but they are different. The team itself is profitable, so the transfer is very convenient, but the orchestra is different. Most of the philharmonic registration forms are non-profit organizations. Just like TED when we registered , in nature, they cannot trade directly, nor do they have a nominal boss. Usually, the elected music director is the leader of the orchestra.”

"Unfortunately, that's the case with the Cincinnati Orchestra. It doesn't have a real owner right now, and if you just want to influence it, it's not hard, just donate! You donate as much as they do. It will also sell you some face, such as what kind of banquet you hold, invite them to give you a performance, these are not difficult to do. But if you want to get its ownership, you may have to talk to everyone in the orchestra! Note , is all members, not just a director. The director is just a person who is selected to be responsible for the orchestra."

"I understand!"

Carter fished his head, and Carter, who had also registered as a non-profit organization, knew exactly what Rick meant.

If you want to buy this orchestra, you must first get the members of this orchestra and let them accept the change in the nature of registration.Turn the non-profit organization into a normal commercial orchestra before you can trade.

"Don't worry, I said it's not easy to buy. It's not just because of this. Although I don't know much about classical music, this is my orchestra at home anyway. I still know a little about their situation. Now they I am actively leaning towards popular and popular music, such as soundtracking some Hollywood movies."

"It's like the Pops in the band's name, it's not a band that sticks to pure classical music. I have to say, this positioning is very accurate, which means it has a lot of fans! A lot of them! Just what I know , they have performed at West Point, Carnegie Hall in New York, etc. In other words, they are not short of money! The orchestra is not short of money, and the income of the musicians is guaranteed, so you want to convince them to accept the acquisition, I find it difficult."

"Instead of thinking about buying this orchestra, why don't you consider the Cincinnati Concert Hall? This concert hall is now the property of the Cincinnati City Government. I can help them sell this 100-year-old concert hall to you!"

"As the orchestra's home concert hall, it is not an exaggeration to say that this concert hall and the orchestra have achieved each other. Owning it may give you a considerable advantage when negotiating with the orchestra. As long as your requirements are not If it is too much, I think the Cincinnati Orchestra will not give up this venue that they have used for nearly a hundred years."

"You mean, threaten them with the right to use the venue? Please, you think too badly of me. Help me inquire about the quotation. Now is indeed a good time to acquire assets, but I won't use This trick is to deal with the orchestra. There is no need, I think I can negotiate this acquisition. Normal negotiation, normal acquisition!"
