Becoming a Global Superstar Starting as an Idol Trainee

Every Monday at 10 am is the fixed time for the weekly meeting of Chen Minhao's studio.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, Zhang Wentao, the person in charge of photography, had asked the photographer to fix the shooting equipment in the meeting room in advance.

Since the main work of the studio is the concert, Wu Hongrong and Si Ruoyan also participated in this weekly meeting.

The progress of the concert preparations was much better than expected.

The concert venue, the Bird's Nest, was settled last Wednesday, and Si Ruoyan had already started looking for concert venues in three other cities.

Wu Hongrong and Si Ruoyan have also taken care of the three rigid conditions of the concert, including audio equipment, lighting equipment, and security personnel.

As for the preparations for the concert stage, it is expected to be completed this week.

The soft conditions for the concert, the approval document from the cultural management bureau, have already been obtained.

Things are going well for two main reasons.

On the one hand, the core members of Chen Minhao's studio, as well as Wu Hongrong and Si Ruoyan, are relatively capable and reliable in their work.

On the other hand, it is because of the variety show "My Concert and Me".

"My Concert and Me" has not yet become a household name, but everyone in the concert industry already knows about it.

When the core members of Chen Minhao's studio, Wu Hongrong and Si Ruoyan went out to do errands, there were photographers following behind them. And when others knew that they might be on variety shows, they tried to show their best side.

No matter how bitter and harsh people are, when facing the camera, they are all generous and courteous.

Regarding this point, Si Ruoyan feels the deepest. Some people's performance in front of the camera is completely different from before.

Si Ruoyan recalled the scene of her previous work. When she rented the concert venue and applied for the approval of the concert, how many closed doors did she suffer?

Now that the "machine" is successful, there is nothing that a camera can't handle. If there is, then add another camera.

The problem that troubles Si Ruoyan now is that the partner has too much drama.

They forcefully added drama to themselves in various ways, which made Si Ruoyan miserable.

You just sign and you're done. Why do you want to talk about your talent?

You can get it done with a seal, why do you talk about your ideals?

Although Si Ruoyan was suffering in her heart, when she was supposed to cooperate with others in the performance, she gritted her teeth and tried her best to cooperate with the performance.

Si Ruoyan knows that after Chen Minhao's concert is over, she will have many cooperations with these people in the future, and there will be no cameras to follow them at that time.

As a movie lover, Si Ruoyan knows that playing a role is to put her true feelings into it.

After talking about several cooperations, Si Ruoyan thought that he was not far from the Oscar statuette.

"Mr. Zhang, what you said is so right. The big sound has no sound, but the elephant has no shape. After listening to your words, I finally understand what I lack!"

"Li Chu, your noble sentiments are so touching. In such a materialistic and money-driven society, it is undoubtedly the greatest luck in my life to meet such a gentle person like you."

"Brother Wang, I only heard people say that you are talented. Today, I read your suggestions on the proposal, and I am completely convinced."

Si Ruoyan knows that after the show is broadcast, these people will definitely ask themselves in various euphemistic ways: "Why is there no camera of me?"

The truth of the matter is that Si Ruoyan and Chen Minhao have already greeted Li Guanhua, the director of photography, and these shots will not be edited.

In the face of other people's inquiries, Si Ruoyan had already thought up the countermeasures, and she had done 14 preparatory drills in her mind.

Even the actress has to rehearse.

"Mr. Zhang, after I watched it, I didn't see your camera. I'm really angry. It's a pity that other people can't hear your deafening words. But I'm a part-time job. Editing this It's all down to Penguin Video!

"You ask who is the person in charge of editing? Oh, I really can't say that."

"Okay, okay, since you've already mentioned his name, I won't hide it from you. The person in charge of editing is indeed the bloody Li Guanhua who was scolded on the Internet recently."

At the weekly meeting, after discussing the progress of the concert preparations, several people began to discuss the biggest obstacle in the concert preparations—how to prevent scalpers.

Chen Minhao's appeal is very clear - he does not intend to make a lot of money through concerts.

Chen Minhao is the boss, he doesn't want to make money himself, and other people naturally won't object. Therefore, the ticket price for Chen Minhao's concert this time will be relatively low.

But the low ticket price does not mean that fans can enjoy low-priced benefits.

With eyes closed, everyone here can imagine how much uproar it will cause when the news that Chen Minhao will have a new song in every concert is announced.

Therefore, they could all imagine how difficult it would be to get a ticket for Chen Minhao's concert.

If there are no good measures to prevent the scalpers from making waves, then the scalpers will definitely take advantage of Chen Minhao's profit.

Everyone except Chen Minhao talked about some ideas to prevent scalpers in turn.

Everyone's point of view can be summed up in three points.

The number of tickets purchased by each person is limited, for example, each ID number is limited to 2 tickets.

Mobilize the power of fans and let fans collectively boycott scalpers and not buy scalpers.

Solve it through technical means, and use technology to prevent scalpers from using computer scripts to swipe tickets.

In fact, these three methods are also used by many singers when preventing scalpers.

Are these three methods useful? Useful.

But can these three methods solve the problem? cannot.

Marx once said: "If there is a 10% profit, someone will ensure that it is used everywhere; if there is a 20% profit, someone will become active; if there is a 50% profit, someone will take risks; for 100% profit, Someone dares to trample on all the laws of the world; with 300% profit, someone dares to commit any crime, even the risk of hanging."

Therefore, the more popular Chen Minhao's concert was, and the more Chen Minhao wanted to benefit fans, the more room for scalpers to make a profit, and they would be more unscrupulous.

Recently, Si Ruoyan has been troubled by how to prevent scalpers.

The enlightenment from this incident is: Although hard work may not be able to do one thing well, at least in the process, she can understand that it is too difficult, and she is a waste.

When everyone's eyes turned to Chen Minhao who did not speak, Chen Minhao closed the notebook in his hand and thought about this issue seriously.

The others didn't expect Chen Minhao to come up with any solution.

After all, there is no solution to this problem, and it cannot be solved by relying on one's ingenuity.
