Chapter 1913: Complex Matters Are Handled Simply
When Yang Dongxu was worried about another round of targeted operations in the United States. Others, especially those in the entertainment industry, were discussing Michael's concert.
After all, this superstar is not only a household name, but it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a superstar among international superstars. Therefore, being able to attend his concert, even if it is just a shot, is a rare opportunity for many celebrities.
Not only in the Chinese entertainment industry, but also in the European and American entertainment industry, Hollywood artists will feel proud to receive an invitation to Michael's concert. This is the gap between superstars and superstars. There are only two or three people in the entire entertainment industry who can have such an influence, and Michael is one of them.
So at this moment, it is not only the artists in the domestic entertainment industry and the wishful thinking people like Guo Yue, but also the Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment industry, the Asian entertainment industry, and even the entire global entertainment industry are paying attention to and discussing this matter.
Michael's agent Gutawo thinks that Michael's concert in China can add another ray of light to Michael's superstar halo.
Because among the people with such huge influence in the entertainment industry so far, only Michael became the first person to come to China to eat crabs, and the crabs that can be seen with the naked eye are very plump.
So for some foreign celebrities, participating in Michael's concert is not only to show up at the concert to raise their value and improve their fame.
They can also use the influence of this superstar to come and explore the way in person. See what this mysterious oriental country is like for many foreign stars, and whether they can get a share of this huge market.
In fact, not only the entertainment industry, but also the domestic officials attach great importance to this matter. Of course, it is not the concert that is important, nor Michael, a foreigner, but the global live broadcast or rebroadcast of the concert.
As China has just hosted the Olympic Games, it has shown the world a wave of its own form as an oriental dragon that has begun to recover.
Now it encounters such an influential concert, which is either live or rebroadcasted worldwide. And this impression can be consolidated in the hearts of these foreign friends.
At the same time, it can also be mixed with some cultural output, which is the main purpose, compared with other time-consuming and labor-intensive cultural outputs that are not satisfactory.
This concert is really suitable. It doesn't take much effort or cost much to achieve the purpose of re-examining the impression of China in the minds of those foreign friends.
Don't think that such cultural output is flattering foreigners. China is awesome, and it's enough for our own people to know it. Why bother with those foreigners who know nothing.
In fact, in addition to national defense and military strength, cultural output is also an important indicator of a country's international influence. Especially now that the world environment is relatively peaceful, it is impossible for major powers with "nuclear peace" to go to war.
So hard power is a must, but most of the time it is a soft knife cutting meat. This is when the importance of cultural output is reflected.
For example, Benben's comics are a good example. Some seemingly inconspicuous Benben styles, Benben living habits, and even the Benben names of the characters in the comics are very ordinary at first glance, but in fact they are all cultural expressions invisibly.
A foreigner who enters a Chinese restaurant will be curious about this and that, and may even scream because of the names of dishes such as Fuqi Feipian and Koushui Ji.
But when you go to a Benben restaurant, as long as you are a European or American who likes comics, you will be relatively calm even if it is your first time to visit a Japanese restaurant.
While being curious about Japanese restaurants, you will also try to verify the Benben dishes and Benben culture that appear in comics. Even many comic fans have changed their ideas about Benben because of comics, and even like Benben culture.
To say something darker, when you like something, you become the leeks that are about to be harvested.
So in addition to the influence that can be seen on the surface, cultural output can also cultivate countless leeks. The models of Marvel in the United States and the figures of various Benben comics are all harvested after the successful cultural output.
Therefore, even if you don’t value international influence and just want to make more money, you must insist on cultural output. Using your own advantage and familiar culture as a sickle is much easier than taking the time and effort to integrate into the culture of other countries and then thinking about harvesting.
Yang Dongxu has been insisting on exporting various Chinese-style novels for many years. He said before that taking a few mature IPs out to do things is also a kind of harvesting leeks after the successful cultural output.
Therefore, it is natural that Michael's concert attracted the attention of officials because it was broadcast live or rebroadcasted worldwide.
"Isn't it necessary to be so exaggerated?" Looking at the dozen materials in his hand, and then looking at Liu Zongsheng who didn't seem to be joking sitting opposite him, Yang Dongxu was speechless.
According to Liu Zongsheng's plan, this is not a concert, the scale is almost as high as the visit of the US President to China.
However, from another perspective, perhaps Michael's concert is more influential than the visit of the US President to China, or more accurately, more famous.
After all, the US President's visit to that country, except for those who care about politics and study international relations, not many people pay attention to it. Even if they see this news in the newspaper, most people will just glance over it.
But Michael's concert is different. This is a carnival for Michael fans around the world. And Michael's fans are undoubtedly far higher than the US President.
"Actually, these plans." Liu Zongsheng saw that his boss seemed a little unhappy and wanted to explain.
But before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Yang Dongxu, "Okay, don't do those fancy and useless things, just do three important things.
The first is public security, and this public security is not just the public security during the concert. When the fans are too crazy and faint, the ambulance must also be taken into account.
The second is the reception of fans from all over the country and even the world who are flocking to China. There is no need to set Olympic standards for this, just do a good job of market management. When the time comes, hotels and restaurants just don't raise prices randomly.
It's just a group of foreign fans who come to watch the concert, just treat them as ordinary tourists and provide basic protection. If there are really troublemakers, they should be beaten and arrested, and they don't need to be indulged.
When facing the global live broadcast, it's not just us who don't want problems, we are afraid that this matter will be magnified by those unscrupulous foreign media and affect the country.
Michael's team doesn't want problems either. No one likes to perform works in such a super concert. There will be stains on the film. So if we really encounter those foreigners who think they are the boss, we will take care of the media and let Michael's team deal with it. Those media who know what's good for them will shut up.
Third, take the opportunity to show the spirit of China. This needs strong support. When the time comes, some overhead shots of the exterior scenes, or when Michael takes a break, other shots will be cut in. This film should be prepared in advance.
Wherever the concert is held, just focus on the exterior scenes in this city. Just give a few shots of the Great Wall and the Forbidden City, and don't focus on introducing them. The Olympics have been introduced, and it was only last year. Repetition will be offensive.
On the contrary, people will be more curious if they have never seen other scenery. I will check this personally, and I will remind you first that ordinary people can appear in the camera, even if they are passers-by. But it must not become a star or an album for someone to show their presence.
And "
