May 8th, evening.

The 30th concert of Cao Jun's national tour ended perfectly at the Beijing Stadium.

After this concert, Cao Jun's number of concerts with tens of thousands of people has also successfully exceeded 80.

It is not modest to say that among all mainland singers, Cao Jun's number of concerts with tens of thousands of people is undisputed No. 1, and no one can surpass him.

As for Queen Huang Fei, although she has not held many concerts in the past few years, she had already exceeded 50 concerts with thousands of people before she retired.

In fact, Huang Fei has only held three concert tours so far. The first time she held a concert was in December 1994. She held 18 consecutive concerts with tens of thousands of people at the Hong Kong Coliseum by herself.

Ranked third is mainland rock singer Cui Jian. It has been 25 years since his debut and he has only held 52 concerts in total.

Ranked 4th is also a rock singer, Wang Feng, who claims to occupy half of the mainland music scene. It has been 16 years since his debut and he has played a total of 22 concerts.

Ranked fifth is Na Young. She debuted for 23 years and has a total of 21 concerts.

Ranked 6th is Xu Wei, who debuted in 1995. It was not until 2004 that he held his first solo concert, "The Out-of-Print Ten Years of Youth Selected Tracks Concert", and has held 16 concerts so far.

In fact, very few of our mainland singers have the popularity and ability to hold concerts. Even Liu Huan, the "big brother in the music industry", has only held a few concerts.

In fact, most mainland singers cannot hold solo concerts, let alone concerts with thousands of people. They mostly participate in group concerts.

The ones who really hold more concerts are actually Hong Kong and Taiwan singers, such as the Four Heavenly Kings, Stephen Chow, Jay Chou, Zhang Xinzhe, etc., who are all frequent visitors to concerts in the Mainland.

However, it can also be seen from the number of concerts that Cao Jun is a fig leaf in the mainland music scene.

Fortunately, there is still Cao Jun in the mainland music scene, otherwise, the mainland music scene would have been mercilessly beaten by Hong Kong and Taiwan singers in the past 10 years.

May 10, morning.

Cao Jun was invited by Huang Zhongjun and went to Huang Zhongjun's house as a guest.

Huang Zhongjun's family has a very large yard, several luxuriously decorated small buildings, houses made of gray and white stones, and spacious courtyards, showing a strong Western style.

"I Have a Picture Book of Ghosts and Gods"

Moreover, the interior of his home is filled with various bronze sculptures and Chinese oil paintings.

It is worth mentioning that Huang Zhongjun’s oil painting collection mainly focuses on contemporary famous artists such as Ai Xuan, Yang Feiyun, Wang Yidong, and Yuan Zhengyang, who are leaders in the Chinese oil painting market.

After taking Cao Jun for a walk around his home, Huang Zhongjun stopped beating around the bush and chatted with Cao Jun about his thoughts in the living room: "Xiao Cao, I wonder if you have heard of the gambling agreement?"

Cao Jun nodded and said calmly: "Of course I have heard of it."

To be precise, the gambling agreement Huang Zhongjun refers to, also known as the "valuation adjustment mechanism", is an agreement between the acquirer and the transferor regarding uncertain future situations when they reach a merger agreement.

Gambling agreements are popular in many industries, especially in the entertainment industry, and Cao Jun has heard of them to some extent.

To put it simply, the gambling agreement itself is a means to reduce investment risks and encourage financing companies to be proactive.

But most of the time, the goals of gambling are exaggerated, and what is blocked is a bubble, which means that it is difficult to achieve the goal with your current resources, and you will be forced to achieve it. In this way, you have to do what you have to do.

Things to do.

In recent years, in order to repay the money as soon as possible, stars and directors who have participated in the gambling agreements no longer "picky" about the scripts, but focus on making quick money and become puppets of capital!

Therefore, some people say that gambling agreements have become a "cancer" for the development of the film and television industry.

To say that the impetuousness of China's film and television industry can be entirely attributed to the "gambling agreement"? Cao Jun thinks not!

As the saying goes, kitchen knives are not guilty, but killing people with knives is guilty.

As a capital investment tool, a gambling agreement is neither a cancer nor an arsenic. When celebrities sign a gambling agreement, they should know the consequences! Don't take the money and say that you were forced to accept a bad movie.

As a capital investment tool, a gambling agreement is neither a cancer nor an arsenic. When celebrities sign a gambling agreement, they should know the consequences! Don't take the money and say that you were forced to accept a bad movie.

All in all, betting is a capital tool. Whether you can play it successfully or not depends on your personal situation.

Therefore, Cao Jun is not opposed to the "gambling agreement", but he has never considered this issue. At most, he maintains a wait-and-see attitude.

In order to allow Cao Jun to "deeply bind" Huayi, Huang Zhongjun also wanted to use the gambling agreement to firmly capture Cao Jun, so that Cao Jun could continue to work hard for Huayi and continue to create performance for Huayi.

Huang Zhongjun asked with a smile: "Xiao Cao, I want to know if you are interested in signing a gambling agreement with Huayi and creating new glory together?"

Cao Jun had known that Huang Zhongjun would ask this question, so he smiled and said: "Director Huang, how can you still be unclear about me? I just want to make the movies I want to make in peace and quiet, and I really don't want to be constrained by capital.

."

Huang Zhongjun said disapprovingly: "Xiao Cao, you are leaving the company to start your own business, isn't it to make more money?"

Cao Jun told the truth: "Director Huang, when I left the company, money was only one factor. Yes, no one doesn't love money. I admit it, I love money too."

"But Mr. Huang, I think I'm living a pretty good life now. Although I don't earn much, I don't have much pressure."

Huang Zhongjun said bluntly: "Xiao Cao, your mentality is not good. You are still young. You should take advantage of your youth to work hard for a few years."

"But Xiao Cao, if you really have no intention of developing your Century Film and Television Company, then you might as well transfer your company's funds away, and then I will come forward and acquire your company."

Hearing what Huang Zhongjun meant, Cao Jun understood in his heart that Huang Zhongjun still wanted to convince himself to sign a gambling agreement with Huayi.

To put it simply, Huang Zhongjun planned to use a huge sum of money to sign Cao Jun, and then let Cao Jun work for Huayi again to complete the performance targets given to him by Huayi.

If the performance reaches the standard, Cao Jun will successfully take the money. If Cao Jun reaches the performance stipulated in the agreement, he will make up the difference out of his own pocket.

Thinking of this, Cao Jun couldn't help but sigh: "Director Huang, I think we'd better forget it, and don't try to influence me. I think I'm really good now."

"Anyway, my own company, if I lose money on one movie, I can make another one. If I lose money again, I will make another one."

"If I still lose money after filming three or four movies in a row, maybe then I will consider disbanding the company and maybe quitting the entertainment industry."

Huang Zhongjun did not expect that Cao Jun would become so "desireless" and no longer have the ambition he had when he subscribed to Huayi's original shares.

After thinking about it, Huang Zhongjun said earnestly: "Xiao Cao, don't you want to make more money?"

"How did you become so Buddhist?!"

Cao Jun said helplessly: "Dr. Huang, this is not a question of whether you are a Buddhist or not, I just don't want to bother you so much."

"As the saying goes, poverty must be arrogant and wealth must be stable. I am already so rich, why should I take risks? If I lose the bet, don't I still have to make up the difference out of my own pocket? Why should I?
