The Ocean Jet Dance Hall hasn't changed much from before. Although the two owners have separated and are living separately, the operation of the dance hall has not stopped.
Eat and drink as you please.
The only change is that the Black Island band, which used to be based here, has left.
Black Island chose to go to Zheng Tuo's venue instead of staying at Haiyun.
This shows that the members of the Black Island band are all blind and short-sighted.
They didn't seem to understand how the dance hall had come back to life.
Everyone has their own aspirations; we cannot force them to.
Liang Liang didn't say anything about the departure of the Black Island Band. There are plenty of bands out there; he could just bring one over wherever he went.
Tonight, the Ocean Jet Ballroom is facing the predicament of not having a live band, but that's not a problem. The Blue Shark Band happens to be free right now, so they can just gather their members.
Unless they have any missions outside the area, the Blue Shark Band will stay at the Ocean Shipping Ballroom permanently.
After calming down the original staff in the dance hall, Liang Liang paged Han Chui, Xiao Yu, Liu Yuyong, and Wang Fan respectively.
They can't afford a cell phone now, but they can still afford a pager that costs over three thousand yuan.
Han Chui was the first to respond, after all, as the manager of the Blue Shark band, he had to keep a close eye on the band's movements.
Liang Liang simply told Han Chui to come to the Haiyun Dance Hall immediately.
After Han Chui came Xiao Yu and Liu Yuyong.
Wang Fan was the last to return. He had paged Liang Liang half an hour later. His family lived in the countryside, and there was only one telephone in the brigade. He had to walk two miles to the brigade to find a telephone to make the call after receiving Liang Liang's page. Therefore, he was the last to return and the last to arrive.
Apart from Wang Fan, the other three arrived at the Haiyun Dance Hall within an hour.
Before they arrived at the Haiyun Dance Hall, Qin Wenju drove back to Yahe. What happened here was no longer her concern. She had eaten her fill in the past two days and it was time to go back and take care of her business.
After the Blue Shark band members arrived, Liang Liang introduced his new role.
Of course, he didn't say that Qin Wenju had transferred the entire dance hall to him. If he did, the band members would naturally associate it with an improper relationship between him and Qin Wenju. Wouldn't that be blatantly telling people that he and Qin Wenju were having an affair?
He only said that the Haiyun Dance Hall now belongs to Qin Wenju, and that he is now the manager of the Haiyun Dance Hall, responsible for its operation.
Although he is now in charge of the Haiyun Dance Hall, if he doesn't go out to perform, no one will take care of it.
We also need a deputy manager here, so that he can be in charge of the operation of the Ocean Jet Dance Hall when he is not here.
Unfortunately, both Xu Hebin and Sui Fulu went back to Yahe.
We can't do without our own people here. The people in the Haiyun Dance Hall are all former Zheng Tuo's men. Although they've stayed, there's no guarantee they'll be loyal.
Some key positions must be filled by replacements.
That's how things are before the new year; some personnel changes will be needed after the new year.
If he couldn't find a suitable and trustworthy candidate, he planned to bring Xu Hebin back to take charge of the Haiyun Dance Hall.
Although he may not have much experience in management, he has spent several months in nightclubs, so he can learn gradually.
That's not urgent. The problem we need to solve now is that Wang Fan won't be here until tomorrow, and they need a keyboardist tonight.
"I need someone who can read sheet music and play accompaniment to temporarily replace Wang Fan as the keyboardist, 100 yuan a night. I also need a band that performs at the Haiyun Dance Hall. Brother Liu! I'm leaving this task to you. I hope to see them before dark."
Liang Liang took out 100 yuan and gave it to Liu Yuyong. This was for his travel expenses and lunch money when he went out to find someone.
"You go with Han Chui and see who fits our style. Bring them along. As for those who cling to the rock spirit and refuse to change, let them step aside!"
Liu Yuyong refused Liang Liang's money; with Han Chui around, he didn't care about financial matters.
How are the album sales going?
Today is January 5th. The Hong Kong version has been on sale for more than ten days, and the mainland version has been on sale for nine days. Han Chui is in charge of these matters, and Liang Liang is not very clear about the specific numbers.
"As of yesterday, the Hong Kong version of the album has sold over 105,000 copies, the mainland version has sold 176,000 copies, and the Taiwan version has sold 30,000 copies in three days."
So that means this album has already sold 300,000 copies across Mainland China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong!
Based on this calculation, it shouldn't be a problem for this album to sell a million copies by the Chinese New Year.
The band's debut album sold this well, which would be a cause for celebration for most people, but in Liang Liang's mind, it was only average.
Shouldn't we break through the two million mark with overwhelming force?
"Alright! You two, let's go! Find somewhere to grab a bite to eat for lunch."
Han Chui and Liu Yuyong set off.
Only Liang Liang and Xiao Yu remained in the office.
We have to do something, otherwise it'll be too awkward staring at each other like this.
Besides, it's been a long time since I've had a cough fight with Xiao Yu.
"Now it's just the two of us, what should we do? How about we have an office romance?"
Xiao Yu glanced at Liang Liang with disdain.
"Aren't you going to take me to your house to meet your parents this Chinese New Year? An ugly son-in-law will have to meet his in-laws sooner or later."
"If you ever say such nonsense in front of me again, I'll turn against you."
"That's so boring. I only said a few words and you're already getting angry? I haven't even made a move yet. You can turn your temper when I do."
Xiao Yu was both amused and exasperated.
"I just don't understand why there are people like you and Han Bangbang in this world? Wouldn't it be better if the world were full of honest and kind people?"
"Nonsense! Think of it this way: if the world were only white, how terrifying would it be! So the world needs many colors, and people need all kinds of people. If women were all obedient and only focused on being good wives and mothers, how boring would it be for men to live?"
"Pah! Full of fallacies!"
"Xiao Yu! You are a good woman, really! I mean it from the bottom of my heart."
"Aren't you disgusting?"
"What's disgusting? The dantian mentioned in the book is actually the head of the large intestine. See? I'm so nice! I even gave you a free lesson in science."
"Can you talk about something serious? If you keep talking nonsense, I'm leaving."
"If we only listened to serious talk, the world would be so monotonous. Okay, okay! Seriously, in ten years, when we've both matured, gained a lot of social experience, and had our fill of fun, I'm going to marry you! Really! Although life with a wife like you might be boring, you're a master at managing a household."
Xiao Yu stood up, pushed open the door, and left.
This whole thing is a mess. If you talk about it in a lighthearted way, she won't listen. If you talk about it seriously, she'll slam the door and leave. It's a shame this woman isn't going to be a street sweeper in the future.
