Huayu 1992, my entertainment era

Chapter 27 Commercial performance invitation, going to be on TV

In October, the 14th National Congress will be held, and the whole country is filled with a strong political atmosphere.

People are talking about the final round of this conference everywhere.

As for Zhou Ziheng, he is still busy with his commercial performances.

Recently, with the winter order fair approaching, some orderers from other provinces have rushed to Guangzhou to learn about the Guangdong market, and "Wandering Song" inevitably appeared in their field of vision.

Some people began to contact Pacific in advance to discuss ordering matters.

At present, several orderers who have contacted Pacific have made large orders, placing orders of tens of thousands of tickets at a time.

The news spread through the grapevine.

This makes Zhou Ziheng even more popular in Guangdong Province.

More big bosses from Guangdong Province began to contact Zhou Ziheng and invited him to perform at the opening ceremonies of their businesses.

Starting from late September, Zhou Ziheng would receive a large-scale commercial performance almost every three days.

Moreover, as more and more invitations came, some sponsors began to spontaneously increase Zhou Ziheng's appearance fee in order to cut in line.

In late September, Zhou Ziheng's appearance fee was only around 3,000 yuan per performance.

In less than two or three weeks, his appearance fee had increased to a minimum of 5,000 per show, and it was not certain that he would be invited.

However, these can only be considered small commercial performances.

Until October 7th.

On this day, Zhou Ziheng had just finished singing for the opening ceremony of a real estate project in Foshan, and left the stage amid the urging of many enthusiastic audience members to stay.

As soon as he stepped off the stage, Wang Ziqi, who had just taken on the position of his agent a few days ago, excitedly ran over with the phone in hand.

"Ziheng, good news, good news, Wanhuaxin Group invites you to sing two songs on stage for their first chain market in Shenzhen.

The appearance fee is 20,000!"

20,000 yuan for two songs, which means one song is equivalent to 10,000 yuan. This is definitely the largest commercial performance Zhou Ziheng has received in recent times.

There was no way. People in the mainland were generally not wealthy at that time, and singers were not as awesome as they would be in the future, where their appearance fees were either millions or tens of millions.

In this era, if a mainland star can earn five or six thousand yuan for an appearance like Zhou Ziheng, he is already considered a big star.

Of course, if stars from Hong Kong and Taiwan come, it will be a completely different story. The big bosses from the mainland will spend all they have to invite them!
It was only after Zhou Ziheng got involved in commercial performances that he realized that there was such a huge gap between Hong Kong and Taiwan singers and mainland singers.

When the appearance fees of tens of thousands for local singers in the mainland are already astronomical, the prices of the Four Heavenly Kings of Hong Kong are enough to scare a lot of mainland singers to death.

Andy Lau's appearance fee is as high as 800,000, Jacky Cheung's is 750,000, Leon Lai's is 650,000, and Aaron Kwok's is 630,000.

In comparison, mainland singers are not even qualified to be supporting roles.

But there is nothing you can do about it.

Ever since their successful performance in the 1990 Spring Festival Gala, Hong Kong and Taiwan singers have become popular among mainland audiences.

Their concerts are always packed.

Even if the price increases temporarily, there are still a lot of people who will buy it.

Last year, Taiwan singer Zhao Chuan set a precedent by raising the price of his concert tickets from five yuan to ten yuan, but concert tickets were still hard to get.

Afterwards, Hong Kong and Taiwan singers, like hyenas smelling blood, began to raise the prices of their concert tickets one after another.

This year, Qi Qin, who is very popular in mainland China, asked for an exorbitant price, directly raising the ticket price to fifty yuan per ticket.

However, even though the ticket price is extremely expensive for mainlanders, it did not scare people away. When Qi Qin held a concert, the seats were still full.

Scalpers even sell tickets for hundreds of dollars each and still people are willing to buy them.

In addition, according to the popular charts established by CCTV, from January this year to October now, more than 90% of the top 100 songs are from Hong Kong and Taiwan.

In a word.

In the current mainland, compared with singers from Hong Kong and Taiwan, mainland singers are like a thumb compared to a thigh, there is a huge gap.

This is true whether it is influence or income.

"When?" Zhou Ziheng asked.

Although I feel extremely sad about the huge income gap between mainland singers and Hong Kong and Taiwan stars.

But Zhou Ziheng still didn't feel unbalanced because of this.

Times make heroes.

In this era, Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment is awesome, so they should naturally enjoy higher treatment. But when they decline and the mainland rises, the outcome will naturally be the other way around.

Therefore, the only thing he had to do now was to work hard to climb up and try to make himself stand on equal footing with these guys instead of just being a foil.

Then just wait for the reversal.

"The day after tomorrow!" Wang Ziqi said, his tone becoming more excited, "They told me that this time, China Resources not only invited you and Yang Yuying.

They also invited several Hong Kong stars, including Chow Yun-fat, to participate in the ribbon-cutting ceremony.”

"What a big event!" Zhou Ziheng exclaimed.

In Guangdong Province currently, the most popular people are undoubtedly Zhou Ziheng and Yang Yuying.

There are two people, a man and a woman, one is handsome and the other is pure.

His singing voice has spread throughout Guangdong Province, and he can be said to be the most popular person in Guangdong Province at present.

Wan Xinhua not only invited the two of them, but also several other Hong Kong and Taiwan artists, which is not uncommon in this era.

Moreover, Xiao Ma Ge is not cheap. His appearance fee is at least hundreds of thousands. Inviting so many big stars for an opening ceremony alone is already an extraordinary event.

At least, Zhou Ziheng rarely saw this kind of scene.

"Go back to Yangcheng first!"

After sighing, Zhou Ziheng quickly greeted the financier of the property, and after the other party paid the balance with satisfaction, he took a bus straight back to Guangzhou.

He has a TV show tomorrow.

This is not his first time on television.

Recently, his "Wandering Song" MTV has been frequently broadcast on the music channel of Guangdong Provincial Television Station, and he can be said to have appeared on TV a long time ago.

But that was MTV.

Tomorrow will be his first time recording a live show.

And this show is not simple.

It is the most popular TV program in Guangdong Province at present, "A Thousand Colors".

As "Wandering Song" continued to ferment and spread in Guangdong Province, his singing could be heard in every street and alley.

He was finally noticed by the show.

Of course, the Pacific Ocean may also have contributed to this.

But no matter what.

The fact that "A Thousand Colors" invited Zhou Ziheng to be one of the main stars has fully demonstrated that he has already had a place in Guangdong Province.

It was my first time on TV, even if it was a recorded broadcast.

Zhou Ziheng also takes it very seriously.

He still pays a lot of attention to his image.

Not to mention becoming a singer who makes a living by his looks.

But I also don’t want to rush back tomorrow and leave an impression of being tired and listless to the audience.

'Leaving my parents and friends'

"Waving with tears in my eyes"

"The wind blows and the rain falls without stopping"

……

The temporarily rented car was running on the street, and his singing could be heard everywhere on both sides of the street.

Zhou Ziheng even saw a wandering singer singing his "New Working Song" on the street, and there were many listeners around him.

Looking at the door of the video store on the corner, the poster he took of the tape was pasted on the glass at the door.
