The predecessor of the Mianpian Band was actually Zhan Ju, the bassist of the Tang Dynasty Band, who would help the Tang Dynasty Band clean their instruments, change strings, and tune their instruments when he had nothing to do. He also learned a few tricks from the Tang Dynasty Band.
Feeling they had learned enough after a few lessons, they formed a band.
Zhan Ju said that since they were all ugly, they should be called Ugly Faces. So they became Ugly Faces. Later, a Taiwanese boss wanted to sign them, but said their name didn't sound good, so he removed the three characters "ugly" and they became the Faces Band.
Of course, this is a story from the previous life.
The torches of war are gone in this life. Who did these guys learn music from? And who did they debut with?
But in this life, for some reason, they became the Noodle Band.
No wonder the security guards at the event commemorating foreigners called them by the wrong names the other day, using all sorts of terms like "noodles" and "noodles".
But this has little to do with Liang Liang; in their previous life, they had little interaction with the Face Band.
In this life, they will have no connection with the noodle band either.
Whether Douwei and Ou Wuge have a friendship is a matter between them.
Although the question of who the band Noodles learned from and who they debuted with remains unanswered, Liang Liang said that she put the question aside without any hesitation.
He's too busy to keep thinking about things that don't concern him.
After an afternoon of rehearsals, Liang Liang was very satisfied with the Dreaming Band's performance.
They not only completed the task he assigned them to learn the four songs, but they also learned an extra song, "In My Eyes".
Douwei sang the flavor of these old Black Panther band songs in Liang Liang's mind from his previous life.
From that moment on, Liang Liang made up his mind to take the Dreaming Band on a national tour.
Food and lodging are provided, and you get 800 yuan per performance.
Liang Liang paid for it himself; it had nothing to do with the other members of the band.
The main reason is that we don't want to cause unnecessary conflict.
If Liang Liang were to distribute the cost among the band members, neither Liu Yuyong, Wang Fan, nor Xiao Yu would have any objections.
Having no opinions doesn't mean you don't have any thoughts. If these thoughts accumulate over time, they can eventually become a volcano, and even a seemingly insignificant reason can cause such a conflict to erupt.
Liang Liang would never allow such a hidden danger to exist in the band, and would nip it in the bud.
The Dream Band consists of four or five people. They eat, sleep, and receive a reward of one thousand yuan from Liang Liang for each performance. In total, they spend nearly three thousand yuan a month on them.
Liang Liang can afford to spend these two sums of money, and he doesn't need to pay out of his own pocket.
He also earns income from each performance, which is far more than three thousand yuan a month. He can support the band and even have a surplus.
To put it another way, even if he doesn't perform and has no income right now, he'll still pay the band this little bit of money for the next two months.
Long-term investment is essential; you can't catch a wolf without risking your cub.
Although the analogy is a bit unpleasant to hear, the principle it represents is true.
When they performed for him at home, Liang Liang would give them double the performance fee.
The Dreaming Band had no reason to object to the conditions proposed by Liang Liang.
Their band had just been formed and hadn't made a name for themselves yet. They didn't know how long it would take for them to make it big on their own.
Now, a famous singer and a famous band are going on a national tour, with food and lodging provided, and they even get 800 yuan per performance.
For big bands, this is a pretty good condition; what else do they have to pick and choose?
Even if they were provided with food and lodging but paid nothing, they would still travel around the country, learning techniques, gaining experience, and increasing the band's popularity. In the end, they would earn a free trip without spending any money.
It has all advantages and almost no disadvantages, so there is absolutely no reason to object to it.
After dinner, Su Ennan's teacher, Gu Jianfen, and five or six people who looked like cadres arrived.
These people are, of course, from the cultural department who review the programs.
Su Ennan and Han Chui received these important figures with the utmost courtesy, like two lapdogs.
Once these people arrived, the rehearsal began.
The rehearsal lasted four hours, and the performance was adequate.
The reviewers deemed the program satisfactory and then left satisfied with the gifts presented to them.
Once these people nod in agreement, the show can proceed.
The people of Beijing are relatively well-off compared to people from other places, especially those who own houses and courtyards.
Although these things are not worth much now, a courtyard house will be worth hundreds of millions in the future.
The people of Beijing are so wealthy, so the ticket prices naturally can't be set too low.
Suennan and the Blue Shark band also have the right to set a high ticket price.
One is a popular pop star, and the other is a popular pop band. It's only natural to set the ticket price higher!
Do you think a minimum ticket price of fifteen yuan is high?
Not high!
The highest ticket price is only thirty yuan, and those are the seats closest to the stage. You can see the actors' faces and voices up close, and you can even count the number of freckles on their faces clearly. Do you think that's expensive?
Not expensive!
If the performance requires you to stand and not sit after it starts, then that's not something the organizers should be responsible for.
Ticket prices are divided into four tiers: 30 yuan, 25 yuan, and 20 yuan.
The cheapest ticket is 15 yuan.
In 1985, the Wham! Band held a concert in Beijing, and a ticket cost five yuan.
Ten years later, the lowest ticket price for the Blue Shark band is 15 yuan.
Ten years of vicissitudes, ten years of ups and downs, and the ticket price has only tripled.
Liang Liang believes that both Lan Sha and Su Ennan are good people with excellent consciences.
The Workers' Stadium has 15,000 seats, and 16,000 tickets can be sold.
There are 1,000 tickets priced at 30 yuan each, and 2,000 tickets priced at 25 yuan each.
The remaining 20 and 15 votes are divided equally.
If all these tickets are sold, the box office revenue could reach 300,000.
After deducting venue rental, taxes, advertising, and all sorts of miscellaneous expenses, it would cost 50,000.
In this way, the Blue Shark band, which receives 40% of the profits, can get 100,000 yuan, and each of the five band members can get 20,000 yuan.
That's quite a lot.
One should be content and never be greedy for what one has, because you never know when you'll find that you'll run out of resources.
The promotional methods used were almost identical to those used by Su Ennan for his performance in Lianwan City.
Newspapers and leaflets were distributed, and a brief bombardment was launched on television and radio in the last two days.
The advertising fees on Beijing TV are too high, so they almost never dare to use them. A one- or two-second ad can cost several thousand yuan.
Distributing flyers is still more cost-effective; you can distribute thousands of them for just a few dollars.
Tickets for the Workers' Stadium officially went on sale at 1 p.m. on the 21st.
Liang Liang stood on a high place and couldn't help but laugh when he saw his own grotesque advertisement on a huge billboard several meters high in front of the ticket booth.
The reason for the laughter was not the advertisement that made him look somewhat unlike anyone else, but the long lines in front of the stadium ticket booths depicted in the advertisement.
If there's no one in front of these ticket booths, even if the advertisements depict him as a movie star, he won't be able to smile.
