Chapter 1100: Emerging from the mud but not stained
What routines do the world's top idols play now? In fact, it is very simple. A simple understanding is that they play in a chamber music festival, a large venue, and then everyone stands up and dances, and the celebrities are present to manage the interaction with fans at close range, and then
Enhance the sense of interaction.
If you simply understand this type of business logic, it is actually very easy to understand and allow fans to realize their fantasies. It is similar to many otakus in a venue, and the teachers in the hard drive come over to interact with you.
The younger generation of artists basically engage in this kind of interaction. They focus on performing multiple shows every day, regardless of the size of the venue. In this way, they can increase their popularity, accumulate popularity, and then go on to the big stage.
For large stage performances, the stage design should be added, and it should still be based on an interactive method.
The main reason is that the Internet has changed the previous business model. In previous performances of this kind, the stars would finish their performance on the stage and then leave, and the fans would leave.
This method can create a sense of distance between celebrities and fans, but it also lacks a very key thing, which will reduce stickiness and fans will not go to watch a star's performance multiple times.
In the new era, the Internet has made stars and fans more interactive, and fans will feel very close to the stars. At this time, if there is an offline performance, a special concert with thousands of people will be held first, and then the fans will be surrounded by fences.
Celebrities strolled back and forth in an aisle, singing and dancing, and interacted closely with fans, allowing fans to take photos of the celebrities up close with their mobile phones.
He even invited fans to perform on stage, hugging each other, and singing to them face to face. This gave all the fans a signal that I would go to the next show and interact with the stars up close.
After the performance, hold a poster signing event, where you can interact with the fans for a second time. If you go to the star's performance a few more times, the star will remember the name of the fan. Then the fan can also ask the star to record a blessing video, and they can also bring their friends there.
Look, I want my friends to see me getting to know celebrities. I'm pretty cool, and I can take photos of them and send them online for everyone to see.
The audience in front of the screen took a look and realized that they can get such treatment if they go to this show. It’s so good. That’s really good. I’ll go there next time.
This type of venue usually has a few thousand people. Although there are not many people, the price is not cheap, and the higher the front row, the more expensive it is.
Although they are all standing, fences will be used to divide the areas. When the fan base grows, the star will hold a large-scale concert to attract fans to come and watch, thus ensuring attendance.
Most of the time, these stars are touring around the world. In this way, they quickly accumulate a large number of fans. They pay more attention to stage design and stage performances, especially to enhance interactivity.
The core selling point is to increase interactivity and satisfy some instinctive desires of fans. To put it bluntly, it is to make some YY things concrete and material.
However, due to some problems, it is not suitable for female celebrities to do this, and there are few male fans. If there is too much interaction, male fans may be labeled. This is the same all over the world.
As for male stars, they can be more liberal. The prerequisite is that they have some works and the most important thing is to be handsome.
This is also why the term handsome guy rap was born. Future rappers in China are also learning from European and American models, but they are just doing it, and the interactions are all high-fives, photos, signatures and handshakes, which is the largest scale.
In foreign countries, in Europe and the United States, after a star performs, he or she will randomly appear in front of fans to have a meal together, or invite fans to have a meal together. These are all signals to people that watching such stars' performances is more rewarding.
In fact, this is not about making money through performances at all, but about using performances to increase popularity, gain traffic and die-hard fans, and then use the realized value to endorse and sell their own products. Stars set up their own clothing brands and shoe brands.
Even if a pair of shoes sells for thousands of fans, they will buy it.
Sometimes you can watch performances for free without tickets if you buy shoes, which is all about making more money by taking advantage of the fan effect.
"Now that you have decided, we will make arrangements. First, you go to the music room in the afternoon. I will find you the best music production team here. First, I will produce at least five songs for you, which will allow you to perform for an hour.
.
Secondly, we need to be more direct and make our debut here. It may take three to five years. You have basically no influence. You have to perform and travel all over the world. Your traffic is limited around the world, maybe only one or two hundred people.
place.
During this period, some regional variety shows will be arranged for you, and you will feel a sense of loss, because you will not be as popular as you are in China, and as much as possible, you will not be allowed to go to China for variety shows and filming.
You have to wait until you become famous abroad before going back. Since you don’t know what to get a tattoo for, let me give you an idea. Get a tattoo of the name of your hometown.
Adding the prefix Huaxia can let people around the world know where you are from, and it can also help you remember four words: Return home in rich clothes, and return home in rich clothes as soon as possible."
Wang Chenbo nodded. He trusted Zhao Mingyang, very much. He had also experienced the trough period. At worst, he would have to start over again, but this time it worked, and he could indeed return home in glory.
Wang Qi bought some ingredients, and Zhao Mingyang cooked home-cooked meals with them. The three of them sat around eating and chatting, and the atmosphere was very good.
When he drove to the music room in the afternoon, Zhao Mingyang handed over Wang Chenbo to a professional. He couldn't give any advice. He spent all his money and hired professionals. They knew how to create hit songs.
The most popular thing now is to play with the melody and chorus, so that the whole audience can interact.
Zhao Mingyang drove Wang Qi to another place, to a slum here.
The public security here is very chaotic, and rap is closely related to gangs in the United States.
Wang Qi grabbed Zhao Mingyang's hand nervously. After Zhao Mingyang and Wang Qi got out of the car, Wang Qi saw a group of fierce people standing and staring at her, and some were whistling at her.
Soon, the man who whistled was rushed out by a group of people and gave him a severe lesson. A group of rough foreigners followed Zhao Mingyang and Wang Qi.
Wang Qi felt relieved. Zhao Mingyang took Wang Qi into a warehouse. The place was very chaotic, filled with smoke, wine bottles on the ground, and the music was deafening.
Zhao Mingyang led Wang Qi to a vacant position. There were people around him. In the open space in the middle, there were several men and women with microphones playing impromptu rap.
After Wang Qi heard this, he felt that it was like swearing in the street, but it had rhythm, rhythm and rhyme.
And while they were singing, a group of people suddenly rushed in and started attacking a group of people on the stage, and then the warehouse became a mess.
Zhao Mingyang and Wang Qi strolled out in this panic. The bodyguards opened the way for them to protect their safety. Then they went to several other places in the area and wandered slowly.
It is hard to imagine that Wang Qi felt the difference here for the first time. A few kilometers away, there were all kinds of high-class people there. It seemed that everyone was well-dressed, living a good life, and had no worries about food and drink.
And here, the word poverty was written all over it, and for the first time, Wang Qi felt what a slum was like.
There is filth everywhere, there are many drug addicts lying in boxes, and children on the roadside are wearing shabby clothes and eating last-minute bread.
A police car roared past, and several sires got out and broke into a house on the roadside.
Suddenly there was a firefight in the house, which made Wang Qi feel scared. Why did Zhao Mingyang bring her to this place.
A man on the roadside was suddenly hit with a stick by a man riding a motorcycle and fell to the ground.
A group of children followed Wang Qi, asking for money, and followed her all the way to beg. When one of them was given, a group of people immediately gathered around and asked for money. They had to be dismissed, otherwise more people would come to ask Wang Qi for money.
"There's nothing to be afraid of. I'm just taking you to the purest birthplace of rap to see where rap comes from and what it was like originally. You have to live here for at least a year." Zhao Mingyang said.
"Ah~ I don't want to stay here." Wang Qi looked at Zhao Mingyang with a face of rejection.
She was really scared. She was scared to be in this place. The risk factor here was really too high.
Zhao Mingyang looked at him and said, "Are you scared?"
Wang Qi didn't speak, the expression on his face already gave him the answer.
Zhao Mingyang pulled him towards a villa and said: "The owner of this house is the eldest brother of the largest gang in this area, and I can replace this eldest brother at any time.
There is nothing to be afraid of. If you think of this place as a gathering place for those gangsters in movies and TV series, a single raid on this place will mean nothing.
Remember, black is black, black exists because white allows it to exist, otherwise it is nothing, because this world is the rule specified by white."
Wang Qi was still feeling uneasy. After all, this was not China. We had just seen the security aspect and it was really bad.
"I talked to Wang Chenbo at noon. I am very clear about his positioning. Regarding your positioning, I hope you really understand rap, and only if you rap with pure and original flavor can you have a chance to achieve success. Do you want to achieve it?
Higher achievement?
I would like to ask you to take the route of gangsta rap. The prerequisite is that you have a little understanding of this culture, and then I will help you create a character of a big sister who comes out of the slums, a character who climbs up from the bottom.
At the very least, you need to know some of the most basic lifestyles, ways of interacting with people, cultural heritage, etc.
There is really no shortage of sweet singers and dancers here, but there is a shortage of female gangsta rappers with money and looks, even in the whole world. You don’t have to worry about your body and appearance, but your positioning needs to be polished.
You have a little more gangsterism about you.
What is real gangsta rap? Here it is. Don’t worry about your safety. Wang Chenbo will come over in a few days. He will be here with you to get in touch with some rap culture.
It's just that he won't be able to stay here for long. His style is not that of this hexagram. Once you get to know him, he will leave. But you need to stay here for a long time.
I will arrange bodyguards for you. As you know Lao Wu, he will arrange people to protect you. The local gang members here. I also asked the local big sir to greet the territory here and will send
Two Asirs to help and protect you.
I guarantee that no one will dare to touch you here. Don't look at how vicious these people are. If you just go find someone here and tell me that you don't like him, I can immediately arrange for someone to deal with that person.
It's up to you to decide whether that person disappears or is locked up.
Remember, that's the saying, black is not scary, white is scary. We just need to have a good relationship with white, because we are white.
Here in the United States, as long as you have money, as long as you have connections, as long as you have value and interests, you can do whatever you want."
"Is this the only choice?" Wang Qi said.
"That's right, this is the only choice. For the same type of people as you, let's not talk about Japan and South Korea. China has more of them, and Japan and South Korea originally learned the route of Europe and the United States, so there is really no shortage.
A female singer who sings and dances.
But there are still no good-looking female singers in Europe and the United States with pure rap taste. This is the only way you can break out of the tight encirclement and break through the circle.
After you get familiar with it here, we will find a local shooter to write lyrics for you, and then help you release a record. You will start to gain some fame in the community and then promote it. This way, we can create a super strong woman for you.
Rapper persona.
You have to participate in various underground rap competitions here. Of course, I will help you get a few champions. The prerequisite is that you have the ability. If I find that you are not making progress and are just messing around, then I will find someone to replace you.
Your place is up.
I've given you the opportunity. If you don't want it, then go back and continue to be your third-tier singing and dancing female singer."
Wang Qi took a deep breath and stood there thinking. Zhao Mingyang did not disturb her and gave her a space to think.
There are very few female rappers, and even fewer are capable. Those who are capable and good-looking and have a good figure are very few. Therefore, debuting with such an identity is the easiest to gain attention and the easiest to get out of the industry.
"I heard that if you stay here for a long time, you will get into bad habits. I'm afraid~" Wang Qi said.
"You are right. There are many people with bad habits here, but there are also people with dreams. I can help you sort them out. People with bad habits can't get close to you. Just tell me if they are here.
Like it or not, I still say the same thing, this is your only chance.
It’s not that you haven’t been on the ground floor before, you also have experience in this area. It’s just that this place is worse than what you have been in before, but I believe you can handle it, and you are just experiencing it, not staying here forever, understand?”
"Understand, I am not afraid of hardship or anything, but I am afraid of safety. If safety is guaranteed, I am willing to stay here." Wang Qi said.
"Don't worry about safety. As I said, this place may be scary for ordinary people, but for me, it's not scary at all. I can even help you become the big sister here.
That’s it, you live here for a year, and I’ll find someone to help you talk to several entertainment companies here to help you increase your exposure, such as performing at several music festivals, and going to several entertainment companies.
I will arrange it for you if you go to a local variety show or participate in some awards ceremony performances.
But again, you must study here seriously, not to make you become them, but to give you a real in-depth understanding of this culture, so that you can have the best performance and interpret something perfectly.
What you want is this.
Remember, don’t get tattoos, tattoos will make you lose points. You have to create a persona that can stand out from the mud. Only then will it be valuable and will it be bright. Do you understand?"
"I understand, I will do my best according to your request." Wang Qi said.
After Zhao Mingyang took her away, he arranged for a group of people to work with her. Zhao Mingyang went to a coffee shop, where there were people waiting for him.
