Jiang Hua and Zhang Kai cleaned themselves up and prepared to go to Lincoln Center for an inspection.
Zhang Kai was at the end of his frugality again and wanted to take the subway there, so Jiang Hua threatened him again. Zhang Kai was afraid that his money would be lost, so the two of them took a taxi.
Lincoln Center is home to a large number of musicians, or people who claim to be musicians. They perform on the streets nearby, hoping that one day they will be favored by a big boss, so that they can rise to the top.
In the eyes of these people themselves, this is their artistic pilgrimage, but in Zhang Kai's view, these people are just idle, or begging without dignity.
Zhang Kai said angrily: "These people go from day to day without any formality. They just show off like this. They are the worms of society."
Jiang Hua smiled and said: "That's good. This is the country of Chou. The more people like this, the better."
Zhang Kai was stunned and smiled in the blink of an eye.
"You are right, the more, the better. It seems that I have to encourage them."
For the first time, Zhang Kai, a veteran of ten thousand years, took out a small note from his pocket and dropped it into a violin case in front of him.
After the two left, Jiang Hua could see the distressed look on Zhang Kai's face. One dollar to reward a street performer was like throwing money into the water. It's strange that Zhang Kai didn't feel distressed.
Jiang Hua smiled and said, "Should I have stopped you just now?"
Zhang Kai waved his hands speechlessly: "No, we can't let people look down on you. Just spend the money, go and do business quickly."
The two of them went straight to the Philharmonic Hall, which is the highest palace. If it could be held here, the effect would definitely be sensational.
When they arrived at the Philharmonic Hall, they directly announced their home address. The receptionist did not dare to neglect the two of them. He took them to the reception room in the office area and served them coffee.
The two of them sat there and waited, but no one came to notify them. Through the glass door, they could clearly see people coming and going outside. It was indeed very busy.
After drinking a cup of coffee, no one wanted to see them, but a cup of coffee was brought to them.
"I'm sorry, the artistic director and operations director are meeting with important guests, please wait a little longer."
They were also very polite, so the two of them could only wait patiently.
After about an hour, three people in neat suits, who looked like they had an extraordinary status, walked out of the back of the office, talking and laughing. People on the street greeted them warmly when they saw them.
When the three of them passed by the reception room, one of them saw Jiang Hua and the two and said with a smile: "Are even Asians coming to the Philharmonic Hall to discuss cooperation now?"
Only then did the other two people notice the situation in the reception room. At this time, a woman walked over in high heels and said to the two foreign directors: "The people from the Liaison Office of the Flower Planter want to meet you two."
Now even the person who was joking just now became serious. After all, he was a representative of a big Eastern country.
The operations director said to the laughing person: "Pierre, I will send you here."
Pierre pointed at Jiang Hua and said, "Are you going to see those two people?"
The operations director said, "Yes."
"Can we do it together?" Pierre asked tentatively: "If it's not kept secret, I hope to be able to participate. If it's kept secret, I will figure it out myself."
The director of operations did not refuse directly: "Then we have to ask."
The operations director opened the door of the reception room: "Hello, you two, I am Karl, the operations director of the Philharmonic Hall, and this is Deli, the artistic director."
Jiang Hua and Zhang Kai shook hands with them respectively, and Karl asked: "I don't know what happened between the two foreign countries. If possible, Pierre from Sony Music would also like to have a chat with you."
Jiang Hua smiled and said: "There is no problem at all. We welcome him to join our topic."
Calvin waved to Pierre outside. Pierre walked in and said with a smile on his face: "Nice to meet you two. I'm Pierre from Sony Music."
Deli is a person who loves art, and the nonsense at the moment made him feel uncomfortable, so he said: "Okay, gentlemen, let's get back to the business. Mr. flower grower, what do you do for a living?"
Zhang Kai said: "We want to hold a concert, mainly to show the charm of florist music, and we hope it can be held at the Philharmonic Hall."
Deli immediately said: "Two gentlemen, I think you have some misunderstandings. You don't just want to hold a concert in the Philharmonic Hall. The Philharmonic Hall is the most demanding concert hall in the world, and we are very picky.
"
Zhang Kai was not very happy. I am an orchestra from a big country, but I was ignored by such an indifferent guy.
Jiang Hua raised his hands and said: "I fully understand the status of the Philharmonic Hall, but I can also guarantee that our music is also impeccable."
Deli shrugged his shoulders. It was obvious that he scorned Jiang Hua's statement and did not think it was true.
Karl smoothed things over and said, "I wonder which band it is and what songs it plays?"
"Flower Gardener Orchestra, the main song plays Butterfly Lovers."
Deli became even more disdainful. How could he see an unknown orchestra playing an unknown piece of music? How could he allow this orchestra and this piece of music to enter the Philharmonic Hall?
Zhang Kai glanced at Jiang Hua and signaled that he could leave. Since he wasn't happy, let's stop being so hot-tempered.
Jiang Hua smiled and said: "I understand what the Philharmonic Hall is pursuing. I can send a tape of the repertoire in the near future and let Mr. Deli listen to it first before making a decision."
Karl nodded: "I also think this is the best. As long as it can be approved by Mr. Deli, I will welcome the flower grower's band very much."
Jiang Hua and Zhang Kai turned around and left, and Pierre also hurriedly said goodbye. He said nothing in the room, but now he followed Jiang Hua and the others closely.
Seeing that the three of them had already exited the door of the Philharmonic Hall, Pierre immediately called out to Jiang Hua and the others.
"Two gentlemen who are flower growers, please wait a moment."
Zhang Kai turned around and saw that it was Pierre, so he asked, "Mr. Pierre, what can I do for you?"
Pierre said with a smile on his face: "I think we can have a good chat."
Zhang Kai asked: "Can you provide us with a concert hall where we can perform?"
Pierre shook his head: "No, Sony Music does not have a concert hall, but it does not mean that there is no place for us to cooperate."
Zhang Kai said: "I can't think of anything where we can cooperate."
Jiang Hua said: "Can we cooperate? Let's sit down and have a chat. Cooperation cannot be decided in a few words. It depends on how well we talk."
