This music festival featured 150 bands, with each band performing an average of seven times during the festival. Each performance cost 1,000 yuan, so a band could earn 7,000 yuan in performance fees throughout the festival.
One hundred and fifty bands would cost over a million.
Almost all the ticket revenue from the music festival went to them.
The ticket price was a small amount of money for Liang Liang, and he gave away all the profits from the ticket sales.
This year, the majority of the music festival's revenue came from advertising.
Since radio and television stations from within the province came to interview and record last year, the number of television and radio stations visiting this year has increased exponentially.
More than ten television and radio production crews from various cities in the province came to the site.
In addition to them, a large number of television stations from other provinces also arrived this year.
More than ten television stations from Heilongjiang and Jilin provinces also came, as well as radio and television stations from Shandong, Henan, Hebei and Beijing.
This year, the furthest TV station was actually a station from Guangdong Province.
Liang Liang had some connections with Guangdong TV, but he never expected them to come here to film the music festival.
Merchants aren't fools. When they learned that so many radio and television stations were going to cover the Haiyun Music Festival, countless merchants flocked to Pingshan Film and Television City.
Billboards were erected one by one on both sides of the avenue.
Liang Liang waived the travel and meal expenses for these radio and television stations during the music festival and provided them with absolute convenience. Before they left, he also gave them a generous gift of local specialties.
Of course, these things aren't given away for free; the benefits are mutual.
Liang Liang made things easy for them so that they could take more shots of the billboards while filming the documentary, and of course, ensure that these shots wouldn't be cut out during post-production.
We should try our best to protect the interests of these manufacturers.
The more these manufacturers' logos appear in television news and programs, the more advertising they will receive next year.
This year's music festival also attracted millions of yuan in advertising sponsorships.
The fact that the Blue Shark band did not perform at this year's music festival is a great disappointment for fans.
However, Liang Liang presided over the final award ceremony.
Except for the first music festival which did not have these awards, these awards, which were added starting from the second music festival, have been held for three sessions now.
The Haiyun Music Festival's awards are relatively fair and just. After three years of accumulation, this award has now become the only and most authoritative award in the Chinese rock scene.
Winning an award at the Haiyun Music Festival essentially establishes their status in the local rock scene, which greatly benefits their performances there.
At least their appearance fees will increase, and some small clothing companies will even hire them as spokespeople.
Liang Liang noticed that several bands were wearing identical outfits with brand logos.
These are all bands endorsed by small businesses.
Although these endorsement fees may not be high, only a few thousand yuan per person per year, it is at least a good start.
Although these bands with endorsements don't earn a lot of money, they are still the envy of many other bands, as it's a symbol of social recognition.
The awards ceremony took up the entire morning. After the ceremony, the winning bands were happy and treated their close bandmates to a meal at a restaurant before embarking on their journeys and going their separate ways.
By May 7th, the Pingshan Film and Television City, which had been bustling for over a week, was not exactly deserted, but many people had already left.
Most people left, but a small number of people discovered business opportunities here. Some sociable and pretty girls got to know some crew members during the music festival and then went to work as extras in the film crew.
There were many film and television production crews shooting movies and TV series in the film and television city in the first half of this year, resulting in a large number of vacancies for extras, which allowed many people to find jobs here.
Many people stayed behind after the music festival ended.
These should be the first batch of professional extras in China.
The current Pingshan Film and Television City has three fully constructed venues: Yangcheng Street, Qin Palace, and Modern City.
This modern city was built by Liang Liang with the urban landscape of twenty years in the future in mind.
From a distance, the towering buildings and bustling traffic make it more than enough to film a science fiction movie in 1998.
These three scenes are sufficient for most film crews' needs. Once the Qingming Scroll, Jiangnan Village, and Snow City are open to the public, it won't be a problem for a film to complete 80-90% of its shooting here.
Then there are the two scenic spots by the sea.
Once these facilities are completed, Pingshan Film and Television City will be ready to receive various film and television crews from across the country.
Liang Liang took a stroll around the film and television city and also saw some filming locations.
These film crews include those making martial arts films, suspense films, and romance films.
They have all kinds of movies.
He also saw the crew of his own audio-visual company filming "Meteor Garden".
The filming schedule for this production is quite fast. After more than a month of filming, nearly half of the scenes have already been shot. Li Zhizhou said that filming will basically wrap up in another month or so.
As soon as the girl group members saw their boss arrive, they all rushed over to give him autumn spinach.
Luckily, Xiaoqian and Xiaoyao weren't here, otherwise they would have been beaten to death.
Liang Liang encouraged them and gave each of them 100 yuan as pocket money.
These women took the money and scattered like birds and beasts in the blink of an eye.
Liang Liang: ...
Now that I'm back in Yahe, which is so close to my home, of course I should go home and visit.
Compared to the bustling scene on the south side of the mountain, the north side is equally lively, with trucks lining the main road, and there are no empty trucks, whether they are coming or going.
What comes in are all kinds of raw materials, and what goes out are almost all finished guitars.
My younger brother Liang Feng no longer works in the workshop.
As the CEO of a guitar factory, it would be beneath my dignity to go into the workshop; the only place I could go was the laboratory.
The laboratory he directly led was filled with all kinds of wood and guitar accessories of all grades, from high to low.
These pieces of wood and guitar parts were swapped around in this laboratory to create all sorts of guitars.
Some of these guitars were dismantled and discarded after being appraised, while others were preserved.
It is through this unwavering collaboration that the quality of Liang Family Guitars has been gradually improving, and now they are able to produce high-end products among mid-range electric guitars.
Next, Liang Feng plans to start developing high-end guitars, aiming to launch his own high-end brand within three years and enter the international market within five years.
Liang Liang can now completely relax and no longer worry about the guitar factory.
But he also has a guitar factory. Should he move the acoustic guitar factory to Pingshan Village as well?
This means Bi Sheng and his wife will likely have to live apart.
Mu Shuihua is thirty-six or thirty-seven this year, which is the age when she is most sexually active, so separation is probably unlikely.
If Bi Sheng were brought here, would Mu Shuihua fight him to the death?
Forget it, let's keep the competition in Lianwan.
Nothing much happened in Yahe anymore, so Liang Liang prepared to return to Yahe and start working on the research institute project.
