"Mr. Liang! Could you spare two days on September 8th to come to Xiamen, even just one day would be fine."
Liang Liang smiled slightly: "Mr. Lai! On September 8th, we might have been in the Xinjiang Gobi Desert or the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. At that time, the city we were in might not even have an airport, and we wouldn't have been able to get out at all."
Not even a minute, let alone a whole day.
Lai Wenfeng sighed: "Oh! That's such a pity. Your band has many fans in Xiamen. I also really like your songs. It's a shame!"
"Mr. Lai! Our band will definitely perform in Xiamen again in the future."
Liang Liang made empty promises to the other party from afar.
"Alright then! Let's work together again next time we have the chance."
We will never cooperate again in this lifetime.
Liang Liang politely saw the other party off, and then set off with the band back to Lianwan.
Next, they will prepare for a tour of inland cities in western China.
Select the songs to be performed, and prepare at least two sets of songs for rehearsal. Draw out the performance route and decide on the cities to perform in.
Han Chui led his team to make preliminary preparations, and the tour officially began on August 12th.
After discussion, the tour route was finalized. The first stop will be Hefei, followed by Yinchuan, Lanzhou, Xining, Urumqi, Korla, Haidong, Chengdu, Chongqing, Guiyang, Kunming, and finally Nanning.
There are twelve stations in total, and it is expected to be completed in three months.
It extends from the north to the northwest to the west of China and finally ends in the southwest.
Of these cities, only Korla and Haidong are not provincial capitals; the rest are provincial capitals.
Liang Liang looked at the route map with a headache: "Isn't this area too wide? It's like going around the northwest and west, we can't afford to do that. Can we simplify the scope and focus on the north and northwest this time?"
This long journey, covering more than 10,000 miles, not only wastes money and resources, but also takes up a lot of human energy.
Han Chui shook his head: "I'm afraid that won't work unless we reduce the number of performances, because most cities in the Northwest region have very few people with more than one million inhabitants. In Qinghai, only Xining and Haidong have more than one million people, and in Xinjiang, only Urumqi has more than one million people. Korla, which we chose, is the second largest city in Xinjiang, but it only has 550,000 people."
Without a large population base, fewer people will attend the performance proportionally, which will affect both the influence and the economic benefits for the entertainment industry.
Liang Liang thought for a moment and said, "How about this, let's cancel the shows in the southwest region first. Going around in circles is too much of a waste of energy. This time we'll just go to the north and northwest, and arrange two shows in each of the provincial capitals. That should be enough. If that doesn't work, Shanxi Province has many cities with populations of over one million. We can choose two more cities from there. As for the west and southwest, we can talk about that next year."
After further discussion, Yizhou and Jincheng were selected in Shanxi Province, and Chifeng was added to the list of cities in Inner Mongolia Province.
These are all cities with a population of over two million, and the population of their main urban areas exceeds one million.
Only with a sufficient population base can a performance achieve a perfect effect.
As a result, all performances in the Southwest region were canceled and postponed to the following year.
Blue Shark's national tour will begin in Chifeng, passing through Hohhot and three other cities in Shanxi Province, extending to the Northwest.
Two performances were arranged in the provincial capitals of Yinchuan and Urumqi, while the performance in Haidong City was cancelled.
This made the performance thirteen shows.
After finalizing the plan, Han Chui immediately organized twenty employees from his company. He personally led the team to disperse to these nine cities to carry out preliminary preparations, paving the way for the concert forty days later.
Their work is also very demanding; renting a venue for advertising within a month is no easy task.
After Han Chui and his men left, the Blue Shark Band began rehearsing.
During this period, the Sea Waves Band also prepared for a small-scale tour in Northeast China. Their tour will mainly focus on Liaoning Province, but will also cover major cities in Heilongjiang and Jilin provinces.
Their tour route is Yingkou, Anshan, Songyang, Siping, Changchun, and then into Heilongjiang Province, where they will perform in Qiqihar and Harbin, for a total of seven stops.
Meanwhile, two other girl groups under Haiyun's label will also conduct small-scale tours in the province to expand their band's popularity.
Both girl groups will release albums at the end of the year.
Meanwhile, two boy groups under Haiyun Company also began to make their debut.
Originally, the boy groups participating in the training could form three boy groups, but as the training was about to end, several young men had physical, family, or psychological problems and withdrew from the training, which resulted in the remaining people only being able to form two five-member groups.
In the pre-internet era, these newly debuted bands lacked a stage to quickly gain recognition, and relying on the few galas a year was simply not enough.
Liang Liang plans to combine male and female groups to film a youth idol movie or TV series.
They expanded their band's popularity through television dramas.
Liang Liang thought of the TV series "Meteor Garden" that was once popular in mainland China.
This TV series made F4 a household name across mainland China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong.
It's a pity their singing skills are only so-so; otherwise, they might have achieved even greater success.
Unfortunately, the original work for this TV series was written by a Japanese person, and his manga has been serialized since 1992.
You need to buy the copyright if you want to make a TV series.
Fortunately, there was no concept of copyright in mainland China at that time, so it was possible to adapt and film it without having to buy any copyrights.
Liang Liang gathered the scriptwriting team from Haiyun Audio-Visual Company, gave them a general overview of the story, and asked them to create their own scripts.
The only requirement is that it must conform to the national conditions.
It was quite difficult to make this film in 1997 that was in line with the national conditions.
This is the problem that these creative people need to solve; Liang Liangyang and his team are here to solve these script problems.
He doesn't have time to write any scripts himself; he's only responsible for outlining the flow of a play.
After the script for this TV series was completed, Liang Liang planned to have Li Zhizhou direct it.
When talking about movies and TV series, we can't leave out Pingshan Film and Television City, which will be featured in the second half of the year.
After the release of "The Dream Factory" last year, advertisements for Pingshan Film and Television City appeared multiple times in the film, which greatly increased the popularity of Pingshan Film and Television City.
In the second half of this year, there were significantly more film and television crews appearing at Pingshan Film and Television City than in the first half.
Modern City also opened on July 1st, giving the film crew more options for location shooting.
When the Qin Palace is put back into use by the end of the year, even more film crews will arrive.
After discussion and deliberation, Yahe City also decided to start construction of the asphalt road from the film and television city to the national highway in August.
Liang Liang believes that the film and television city will begin its glorious journey next year.
