Wind Rises 2005

Chapter 555 Big Red Packet

Friday night, [Redfang Art Park], [On Stage] bar.

Different from ordinary bars, it is actually a LiveHouse opened by a rich woman, equipped with a professional performance stage and high-quality sound equipment.

The internal decoration alone cost millions, not counting the cost of equipment procurement.

Although the [On Stage] bar is very large inside, it has been full every day since it opened and it is hard to get a ticket.

The more niche an entertainment venue is, the easier it is for it to spread rapidly within a specific circle.

Not to mention that [On Stage]’s consumer prices are really not cheap, which makes the trendy people who come here feel a great sense of superiority.

The reason why it is so crazy is not only because the venue is very unique, but also has something to do with the operation model.

[On Stage] Different bands are scheduled to perform every day, even during the weekend music festival.

Even the well-known bands that participated in the music festival had to come back to the bar to sing one or two songs before leaving after performing in the grass square, which further highlighted the uniqueness of the bar.

Therefore, [On Stage], which opened not long ago, quickly became a gathering place for many young bourgeoisie people in Shanghai.

If Ma Liang hadn't been the lover of the bar owner's wife, he wouldn't have been able to book a table today.

As one of the few monetization projects in [Hongfang Art Park], [On Stage] does not provide reservation services at all, and you can consume as you go.

Even the fashionable people who came late did not hesitate to queue up at the door.

Because the bar has no time limit except for booths and some tables, the dance floor hall serves the public on a standing-room basis.

A standing ticket can only enjoy one band's performance.

Not only the local bands in Shanghai are scrambling to apply for performance slots, but also bands from other parts of the country are vying to come.

After all, [On Stage] is so generous. Not only will the revenue from standing tickets be shared equally with the band, but during the performance, other bands selling drinks in the bar will also get a portion of the commission.

The performance venue was packed to capacity and the income was so guaranteed, which made [On Stage] instantly go viral in the underground band circle.

I can only say that there are too few performance venues in China these days, and people who play in bands have a hard time!

Therefore, many bands took the initiative to shoulder the heavy responsibility of publicity and spread the word about the [Red Square Music Festival] and [On Stage] bar.

Not only did they strive to perform more shows in bars, they also actively called on loyal music fans to come and support.

Of course, music fans travel thousands of miles to support, and they are not limited to the performances of their favorite band.

But each band's performance schedule in the bar is only about an hour.

Then a new band will come on stage, and those guests who bought standing tickets will naturally leave the venue, and another wave of people waiting in line at the door will come in.

Unless you directly book a seat or buy a ticket with low consumption requirements, you can only watch one show and leave after the show.

Although this is often criticized as a profiteer's behavior, [On Stage]'s business is getting more and more prosperous.

This is why at night, you can see people queuing up in front of the bar.

Such grand events usually only happen in front of celebrity nightclubs in big cities abroad. I have never seen a bar like this in China.

But after leaving [On Stage], guests don’t have to worry about having nowhere to go.

There are many restaurants and taverns that will be opened in the [Hongfang Art Park] one after another. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a drink with friends after the show?

It’s Friday night and [On Stage] is completely packed.

Fortunately, Ma Liang had a special status and had already reserved the best booth location.

He and Liu Feifei made an appointment to meet here tonight. In addition to the witch, there were also his two silly roommates and their girlfriends.

It's been a long time since we got together, and there was some serious business to discuss, so Ma Liang made arrangements for today's game.

He had just sat in the booth for a few minutes when he saw Liu Feifei leading Chu Jian, Liu Feiyu and the others.

"There's a bit of traffic jam on the road, otherwise we would have arrived half an hour earlier!"

Liu Feifei walked up to him, sat down next to him and complained, and the two idiots Chu Jian and Liu Feiyu also sat down.

Of course, they are not alone, they are naturally accompanied by their girlfriends.

"Hey, this bar is great!" Liu Feiyu couldn't help but praise him as soon as they met.

Hao Ru, the second-generation charterer, was also shocked by [On Stage]'s awesomeness.

Chu Jian also echoed from the side: "Yes, this is what Donghai should have!"

As the second generation of the factory, this guy often hangs out in various bars and nightclubs in Shanghai.

Especially after he got a girlfriend, he took Fang Zhiyu around from time to time, and he had seen a lot of things.

It was also his first time to experience such an atmospheric and high-end LiveHouse as [On Stage]. "Don't grab it. I'll pay for it today. You can order whatever you want to drink!" Liu Feiyu immediately got excited when he saw that this place suited his status tonight.

Upon hearing this, Chu Jian directly mocked: "In front of our boss Ma, do you have the right to pretend?"

"That's right, it's your turn to show off at the place arranged by Ma Liang. You don't have any sense at all." Yu Mo couldn't help complaining about his slutty boyfriend.

Liu Feiyu was dumbfounded on the spot, and he planned to be proud: "This..."

When everyone saw that he was deflated, they were all overjoyed.

So, Ma Liang and Liu Feifei, Chu Jian and Fang Zhiyu, plus Liu Feiyu and Yu Mo, three pairs of young people drank with each other while enjoying the band's performance.

As for the other roommate, Yang Bo, he didn't have the nerve to show up because he couldn't find a girlfriend.

There is no way, who made him poor!
Poor people don't deserve love...

"Ma Liang, you said you have business with me, what is it about?" After chatting for a while, Yu Mo finally couldn't help but feel curious.

Ma Liang put down the cup and slowly explained: "Great painter, I'm asking for your help again!

Didn’t I ask you to draw a cartoon character before, that Princess Elsa? Do you still remember it?I plan to create an animated film based on this character.

So there are some prototypes of related characters that I would like you to draw together so that I can give them to the director for reference. "

"How can I have time? I'm busy working on my graduation thesis!"

Yu Mo refused without thinking. He liked hand-painting, but he was a little unhappy when it turned into work.

What's more, it is still a proposition composition, not a creation based on one's own subjective wishes.

Every time Ma Liang asked her to draw something before, the process was too painful, and she didn't want to go through it again.

Ma Liang immediately begged: "Don't, senior sister, as the saying goes, one thing doesn't bother two masters.

Besides, don’t you have a dream in this area? If not, before the project starts, I will take over the crew for you to intern and learn from those animation professionals.

When the movie comes out, I will definitely give you a big red envelope, so big that you can ignore this guy Arthur at any time.

And you can also sign your name at the end of the movie, so that’s okay! "

"You really know how to manipulate people!" Yu Mo was a little excited on the spot after hearing this, but still glared at him angrily.

Upon seeing this, Liu Feifei hurriedly advised: "Mo Mo, this is a good opportunity!

We women must be self-reliant and self-reliant. Only when we can make a lot of money can we feel confident.

Otherwise, the conditions of your family are so different from those of Feiyu’s family, and you won’t even be able to straighten your back when you go back to marry and meet your mother-in-law..."

"Hey, hey, don't you want to stir up dissension like this? My mother is fine!
Just marry Mo Mo into my family and enjoy happiness every day.If you want, go and collect rent. If you're not happy, just lie down all day.

What kind of animation are you doing? You work so hard and can’t make much money! "

Liu Feiyu immediately became unhappy after hearing this, and subconsciously spoke out what was in his heart.

In the end, it was better that he didn't say this. As soon as he said it, Yu Mo's expression changed on the spot, and he couldn't help but look at each other with Liu Feifei.

The two had a tacit understanding, and she immediately understood the meaning in her best friend and roommate's eyes.

"Look, what did you just say? Arthur is unreliable at all. From the bottom of his heart, the male chauvinist thinks that women are not good enough and have no ability to make big money.

If you really get married and wait to die like him, it will be fine for a day or two, but not necessarily for a long time.

Of course he can act like a biological son, but it's hard to say that you, a daughter-in-law, are in your husband's family.So women have to rely on themselves and have their own careers! "

"Okay, I promise you!" Yu Mo saw that Liu Feiyu's boyfriend was so disappointing, so he gritted his teeth and agreed to Ma Liang's proposal.

Ma Liang was naturally very happy when he heard this: "Haha, I promise you won't regret your choice today."

It's not that he couldn't find a better painter, he just wanted to save trouble.

After all, I have worked with Yu Mo many times, and we are already quite familiar with each other.With just a few words of description, the other person can describe the feeling he wants.

This is much more efficient than spending money to find a new painter and start from scratch.

Looking back, when the animated movie "Frozen" is actually produced, and the box office and peripheral products become a hit, naturally a big red envelope will be given to Yu Mo.

With the performance of this gold-drawing masterpiece, Ma Liang is naturally not stingy.

The big red envelope sealed for Yu Mo must be big enough to make Arthur, the second generation charterer, envious.

After all, real estate and a large amount of discretionary cash flow are completely different concepts.

Even if Liu Feiyu has a house at home, he still has to look at his parents for food. How can a daughter-in-law feel happy when she has a lot of money in her hands?
