Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory

Chapter 406: A Festival for Insiders
After the little witch walked through Xiaomiao Street, another master took her to the hot springs, sea of ​​flowers and other places to visit.

While she was taking the veterans to see the music, more and more music fans and friends of the Rolling Stones from afar came to Yuxi.

After Qi Yue arrived, he didn't even think about eating, drinking and having fun. He used his identity as a campus agent to directly join the volunteer work at the venue.

Not to mention anything else, she was so moved by the song "Send Running Water" that she felt that she wanted to do something to help the Rolling Stones, instead of just being a fan or witness.

These non-student campus agents have a separate alliance, and it is estimated that half of the dozens of people in it are coming this time, not just for the free access to the infield given to them by the Rolling Stones, but more importantly, they all feel that this It is really meaningful to have a concert all performed by bands and artists under Rolling Stone Music.

This is different from a music festival, which lasts too long. In fact, the main experience is the interactive atmosphere between music fans. When it comes to the on-site audio-visual experience, concerts are better than music festivals.

The key is that this is a concert for all members of the Rolling Stones, so there is no need to worry about the lineup. Those who like rock and roll and the Rolling Stones can just close their eyes and watch.

Qi Yue's late husband used to be in the entertainment industry, and with Noodles in's status in the industry, she had just been assigned to help the stage team, and everyone who had been a BJ before started to say hello to her.

"Yue, just rest. Let Li Hao, the drunkard, do all this work. You can tell us what happened in the BJ circle in the past few months."

Faced with Tang Dafeng's concern, Qi Yue waved her hand and said: "Brother Dafeng, this is not a delay. I hope Li Hao can forget it. I guess he is still drunk by now. In the BJ circle now, most things are not successful. Are they all talking about your Rolling Stones music? After Brother Xiulong left, Brother Wen felt like he couldn’t control these rock people. I heard that many people were clamoring to terminate the contract."

After that time, it was difficult for the band to receive invitations for commercial performances again.

So in the end, Chen Shuting and Pan Jianhu discussed it and decided to let the band use their own connections to try to find it in the industry. As long as it works well with the band, the company can help make up for the weak points such as resources.

After hearing this explanation, Qi Yue immediately understood what Tang Dafeng meant: "Okay, I'll rest assured about this. If someone is suitable, I'll contact you directly..."

"You don't need to leave. Although the Rolling Stones' headquarters is in Dian Province, BJ's business is absolutely indispensable. Anyway, the business with the noodle shop will not affect each other..."

Her love for punk was not brought up by her ex-husband, so she can do work related to her interests, and she can also help the Rolling Stones who are kind to her. For her, a middle-aged "older rock and roll woman" who lost her husband, it is indeed a good job. lifestyle.

Now when Tang Dafeng mentioned it, she waved her hands and said: "Farewell, I can't live without BJ, and I can't live without the Drum Tower area..."

Although she didn't agree, she was already planning to have a chat with Chen Shuting after this time.

Qi Yue had been the manager of her late husband's band for a period of time before, so she was no stranger to it, but she never thought about it again.

Tang Dafeng was brought out of the magic saucer by Pan Jianhu. When he heard that Pan Xiulong left the magic saucer, he had a premonition that this situation would happen sooner or later. But he didn't expect that things would start to ferment before the year had passed.

"It's a pity that Modie's resources have been pretty good over the years. Zhu Wen's business skills are not comparable to many in the circle. It's just that the road is crooked... By the way, Yue, if you listen after you go back If you want to chat with someone, just ask us. If you have a suitable agent..."

Hearing this, Qi Yue looked at Tang Dafeng with a puzzled face and said, "Dafeng, you are staying well at Rolling Stone, why are you thinking of jumping out and working alone?"

In the end, Party A got so angry that he took 20 cash with a face value of no more than 10 yuan from the group's catering and retail stores and threw it directly on their hotel bed.

There is also a certain national band that should be popular, but the manager cannot control the thoughts of the band members, and actually forces Party A to pay the full performance fee to the account at the weekend, otherwise there will be no rehearsals...

Seeing that Qi Yue agreed, Tang Dafeng added another sentence: "Yue, actually, I think you are quite suitable. We are all familiar with each other in the industry, and you are still half-footed in the industry."

"Ahem, what are you thinking! Now in a company like Rolling Stone, bosses like Bian Lang and Brother Hu who know music can't even be found. How can we think of going out alone. The main reason is that now that the company's reputation has risen, our work There are too many. In the past, Brother Hu was basically responsible for the management aspect. How can he be so busy now?"

Let’s just talk about Wang Xiaojing, the late agent of the original Earth. His business ability was truly top-notch in that era. Cui Jian, Luo Qi, and Chen Lin were all discovered and introduced by him, and the later Twelve Girls Band was also planned by him.

It’s no wonder that the Gale Band found their own manager. It’s no wonder that the Rolling Stones didn’t do anything after the merger. The main reason is that the role of a manager is really important to the band.

However, his ability in other aspects is not satisfactory, especially in guiding the band members, otherwise Luo Qi would not have been given an eyeball.

Not only must you have the ability and connections, but you must also be in tune with the band to be useful, otherwise it will be counterproductive.

After listening to Tang Dafeng's analysis, Qi Yue was really moved.

Chen Shuting used her connections in the entertainment industry to search around, and the ones she found were very low in compatibility with the band. Basically, they couldn't stand up to these rock people.

……

At this time, Bian Lang was reviewing the process with the borrowed director You Xuefeng and Niu Boyi.

This person was originally the most senior person in the province and Taiwan, but when he arrived here he said bluntly: "You two are here, I am just an executioner, and I will hit wherever you point out..."

There was no way, the big idea for this concert came from Bian Lang, and Niu Boyi had enough hosting experience, so he really could only be the executive director.

Use your own experience to give the Rolling Stones some implementation-level suggestions to help avoid some problems that may arise.

In fact, Bian Lang had never participated in such a large-scale concert in his previous life. He had just heard and seen a lot, so he had no shortage of ideas. He didn't know how to execute them.

If it were anyone else, Bian Lang would definitely not be able to escape the label of layman guiding expert.

But someone in the director team of Xiaopo Station has already spread the word: "Bian Lang's idea can be executed with eyes closed. If the effect is not good, it means the execution is not in place! "Within a Finger", which was proposed by Bian Lang during the New Year in our Xiao Po Station , there is no opponent on New Year’s Eve!”

Although it sounds a bit untrue to say that I have no rivals on New Year's Eve, in the entertainment industry where everyone wants to rub off on themselves if they are hot enough, to be able to have a director team with tougher mouths than a duck say such words, it shows that Bian Lang is Not only is there no problem with the feasibility of the idea, but the final artistic effect is also guaranteed.

Moreover, the Rolling Stones' New Year's Eve concert is really not as complicated as Xiao Po Station's New Year's Eve concert. The main thing is the cooperation of sound and light and the connection between the bands.

This is not a music festival, and the estimated duration is only 5 hours, which will not leave the band that much time for tuning. Basically, the last band is still performing, and the next band will be ready to perform at any time. In the middle, the host will have a one or two minute introduction and introduction time, so Niu Boyi may be under more pressure than all the performing bands. The pressure is great.

"Bian Lang, isn't it a bit weird to have the New Pants Band open the show?"

Looking at the schedule, Niu Boyi raised some questions of his own. After all, New Pants is also a band with Bian Lang as the lead singer. According to normal concerts, the opening band's ranking is generally not too high.

"What's the matter? Just understand that this is an annual meeting of the Rolling Stones. Anyone can attend. If the venue is Spring City, then Mayuan Poets is the first choice. If it is in the Northeast, second-hand roses are the first choice. Now these two in Yuxi The band's songs are not very suitable...

It’s not impossible to open with the Rolling Stones, but I’m worried that the band scene behind will be a bit cold, so it’s most appropriate to have new pants! "

After listening to Bian Lang's explanation, Niu Bo nodded in approval and then said: "Liu Yao, Guo Sichu and Xie Xinyan have all expressed that they can come on stage. Do you really not think about it?"

"I won't consider it anymore. As long as everyone comes to participate and let everyone have a good time, there will be many opportunities for this kind of favor to be digested in the future."

"Okay, then I can express myself freely in the interaction, right?"

"Well, Brother Niu, there's really nothing to say about your business ability. As long as time permits, you can use it freely. As long as you don't let us get in trouble!"

After the two of them were settled, the director reminded him: "What about the speeches from the leaders and sponsors of Yuxi? And as the founder of Rolling Stone Music, you have to say something no matter what, right?"

Bian Lang really didn't think of this, but what the director said was right.

Although it is the nature of Rolling Stone's annual meeting, the support given by the Yuxi government and Hongta this time is not just financial, no matter what, it must be shown to others.

As for what he wanted to say, Bian Lang felt that he should just improvise on the spot and say less, and leave the official matters to Lao Pan.

"Brother Niu, could you please help the government and Hongta communicate with each other? The principle is that the time should not be too long. As for Rolling Stone Music, I will not say anything separately. When the new pants are on stage, I will improvise. More Let Brother Tiger do it..."

"That's okay. Then you can make some arrangements and I'll communicate with them. Master Hu, go talk to him."

After the matter was settled, the three discussed many detailed issues for more than an hour before dispersing.

Niu Boyi's emotional intelligence and smooth talk are in the first echelon among hosts. He went to communicate with the government and Hongta, and within an hour, the matter had already been resolved.

Hongta just gave up the speech and asked Niu Boyi to mention the group twice more during the oral broadcast, and there was no need for any advertising subtitles, just the name of Hongta Group.

The Yuxi government was also very forthcoming. It just asked the director of culture and tourism for a minute or two. It mainly represented Yuxi to welcome music fans from all over the country, and by the way, invited music fans from all over the country to come and live in Yuxi.

As for Pan Jianhu, once Bian Lang explained the matter, he didn't hesitate and agreed immediately.

But he was a little worried about what to say...

As a result, he gave the task of writing the manuscript to Mrs. Hu, thinking that he could just read the manuscript when the time came.

In the end, Mrs. Hu gave her a look and said, "Tiger, I'm not talking about you. I'm doing this to give you face, but you have to think about it yourself. In your current capacity, what is the appropriate thing to say?"

Being treated so little by his wife, Pan Jianhu also felt that he was a little too big when he agreed to this matter. If it was the Nanyin era, then he could say anything, but now after being merged into Rolling Stone, he is no longer the leader of the company, so what can he say? It will all feel a bit awkward.

"Then I can't tell Bian Lang that I can't do it now..."

"Okay, I'll write it to you this time. Next time you encounter something like this, think about it more before making a decision. Everyone knows Bian Lang's temperament and he won't care, but people other than Rolling Stones will be like this I think, no one can tell. In order for everyone to be able to work together for a long time, there are some things you should pay attention to..."

With the help of Mrs. Hu, Pan Jianhu was able to take time off to receive the friends he invited from all over the country.

If other entertainment companies did this, they would probably be said to be showing off their muscles. But in the rock circle, there are really only a few people who think that way.

Now the Rolling Stones have finally opened up an opportunity for China Rock to make a comeback. Everyone finds an opportunity to get together, talk about the future, and see and learn the operation of the Rolling Stones scene. No one thinks there is any problem with this.

If those independent bands had the opportunity to join the Rolling Stones, then they would naturally be willing to do so.

What Rolling Stone Music has done since its establishment is obvious to all in the industry. Although part of the income will be divided after joining, but with the support of the platform of Rolling Stone, the income will definitely be much more than before!

So on the night of the 30th, a late-night snack stall hosted by the Rolling Stones was filled with people from all over the country.

If I hadn't said hello to the store in advance, it's hard to say that the boss would call the police and say it was a gang gathering when he saw all the "fancy clothes" and big arms.

As a result, as soon as these people drank too much, they either burst into tears or started singing various songs by the Rolling Stones at the top of their lungs.

The boss’s daughter filmed a video and posted it on WeChat Moments, but it almost attracted all the rock fans in Yuxi.

The little witch who came here for the live broadcast got to see many rock people she had never had the chance to meet before.

The traffic in the live broadcast room is also increasing due to word-of-mouth among rock fans. Many fans who did not buy tickets are regretting:
"If I had known that I would encounter these people by chance, it would have been okay if I didn't go inside and listen!"

"What a mistake. If I had known I would have gone today! mo'nü"

“This Rolling Stones concert feels like a festival, and it’s a festival for people in the rock circle!”
