Chapter 621 Staples
There is still an endless stream of people who come to Du Caige.
A female singer came over scratching her head, wanting to discuss music with him, and maybe she didn't mind going upstairs with him to brush up on high school physiology and hygiene.
Some TV hosts and talk show actors invited him to participate in the show.
There is even an unknown person who sneaked in from nowhere, saying that he had written a few songs, brought a demo and wanted to ask him for advice, and even asked him to pay for the release.
Damn, I don't belong to a record company!
He had never encountered such a phenomenon in Dahuaguo.
Even if there is such a singer who thinks he is underappreciated and dreams of being a star, he will not directly send his tapes to the table of the record company boss!
At most, it is delivered to the desk of the department manager in the artist department or music distribution department.
The Dahua Kingdom, or the Dahua culture radiation circle in the whole of Asia, has a relatively strong concept of hierarchy and inferiority.
As a nobody, he would not join company bosses and billionaires, because he would feel that the class gap between the two sides is too large and there is no basis for dialogue.
And if you take a second place and seek dialogue with the department manager, it is possible to achieve dialogue.
Just like in a public institution or government agency, a sensible ordinary junior staff member will not forcefully go to the side of a department-level cadre and ask for help from the other party.
Because it is hard to get past, even if people don't show you a face out of politeness, they will give you a "I don't know the importance and ignorance" comment in my heart.
Not to mention support, if you don't wear small shoes, you will be Amitabha.
Therefore, an ordinary junior section member usually goes to get acquainted with a section-level cadre who is more favored in front of the department-level and department-level cadres. This is the circle he can approach and talk to.
Then the section-level cadre will take him to approach the department-level cadres and the department-level cadres, give a small gift, pay a visit to the pier, and only after a little familiarity can act alone.
This is the common way.
In Xingtiao Nation, it seems that people are more aggressive, and it is more common for people at the bottom to rush to the side of high-level people in order to get the support of nobles.
Du Caige sent out several such unknown singers.
It seems that it should be said "undebuted music lover".
After all, he doesn't have the self-consciousness of being a "superior human being". Although he's impatient, he doesn't look down on people. He won't be like some bosses. , holding a shelf to drive people away.
When someone sent a demo, he accepted it, saying that he would listen to it when he was free.
If people want to show their talents on the spot, he will encourage a few words.
Even if you perform a fire-breathing or snake charmer, he will only clap his hands and applaud. In short, he will not offend anyone, and his peaceful character dominates him.
As for the release, hehe, first of all, I have to be in the Stars and Stripes state-owned record company!
Duan Xiaochen's albums were all released with the help of Green Mile Miracle!
In addition to these music lovers, there are also self-proclaimed "directors and screenwriters".
Some want to show him his works and ask him to give pointers.
Some people think that they have written a script that shakes the heavens and the gods, but they have never encountered Bole, but since you, Hemingway, are a genius, you will definitely be able to get the brilliance of my script, so I will take the copyright of this script cheap. I'll sell it to you.
Some people think that they have a super cool idea and can make a movie that is famous for the history of photography. But, with a little less start-up capital, can you invest a little bit, Hemingway? Not much, just one or two million. It's really not possible, even one or two million is acceptable. If it doesn't work, I want one or two hundred thousand.
Du Caige will accept the kind of works that come with them, indicating that they will go back and watch them slowly.
Du Caige wouldn't talk too much with them who were eloquent and suspected of being liars.
Just listen to them say a few words, encourage them, and let the security or waiter take them away.
Those who really settle down to make works, whether they are really talented or not, are willing to give them a chance.
Because opportunity is the most precious thing in this world.
A trivial chance may be able to change a person's destiny.
And those who tried to fool and wanted to be deceived, Du Caige would not be easily fooled.
He has been in the entertainment industry for many years, and he has already cultivated a pair of piercing eyes.
"Oh, sorry, I didn't know, someone like that got in here. Hemingway, you should have told me sooner. I'm going to the security company, hell, how can you put someone like that in! You didn't promise. What are they? The few people just now are professional liars, don't believe any of their words!" When Collidio appeared in front of Du Caige again, he was furious.
Strictly speaking, this was his dereliction of duty as the host, and the guests he invited were harassed by irrelevant people.
In Los Angeles, there are thousands of people who want to become famous overnight.
There are countless beautiful girls who want to take shortcuts, want to climb into the bed of a director, producer, music producer, distribution company manager, in exchange for a chance.
So when these successful people have a party, they will ask people from the security company to screen and not let those irrelevant people in, unless a big person wants to have some wild food and makes special arrangements.
Otherwise the party is going to be a mess and they'll be exhausted all night.
Looking at the thick pile of novels, script prints, etc. around him, Du Caige smiled wearily: "Don't worry, I didn't promise anything. It's not your fault, Fran. Probably because I'm new here, so A lot of people think they can try their luck.”
"That's right, every time a new rich person appears in the circle, these wild dogs will flock to them. If they can deceive a little, they can deceive a little. If they can't deceive them, they can at least deceive them for a meal."
Du Caige couldn't help but ask him: "Is there no pearl in the ocean? A buried song, a buried script, a talented director and so on."
"It can't be said that there is no such thing. However, such a thing may only happen once in ten years, enough to become a legend."
"That's right." Du Caige expressed that he didn't have any expectations for the thick stack of demos and scripts he accepted.
It wasn't until four in the morning that he and Duan Xiaochen returned to the hotel exhausted.
Nothing to do, no energy to do at all.
Not long after sleeping, I woke up yawning and went to the rehearsal.
This year's Grammy Awards are held at the Staples Center.
This is a multi-purpose arena located on Figueroa Street in downtown Los Angeles, and is used by the NBA's Lakers and Clippers as the home ground.
Basketball fans must be familiar with this arena.
At the same time, this gymnasium is also often used to hold concerts, various large-scale evening parties, and award ceremonies.
Although only ten years old, the Grammy Awards have been held here several times.
Du Caige found Abrams and arranged by the other party to practice several times with the orchestra that was going to accompany "staky".
The effect is actually not satisfactory. Ordinary audiences may not hear much difference, but professionals will shake their heads when they hear it.
But after Abrams listened to it, he said with satisfaction, "No problem, that's fine." You can see how low he put his requirements.
After the joint practice, Du Caige and Duan Xiaochen left.
; After a short rest in the hotel, I called the team recruited locally by Dream Dream Entertainment to dress and make up for them.
Especially for Duan Xiaochen, it is not easy to put on clothes and make up, and it can't be done in an hour or two.
But the effect of dressing up is also satisfactory.
An extended limo parked in front of Spotted Field.
Du Caige stepped out of the limousine first, then went around to the other side of the car and stretched out his arms.
His unfamiliar oriental face immediately attracted the attention of the live media reporters and anchors.
Several of them, who had attended the Collidio house party last night, or who had read the news during the day, recognized him.
"Hemingway!"
The name made the reporters at the scene startled, and they all raised their cameras at the limousine.
At this moment, a flawless jade leg stepped out of the limousine.
The skin of that leg was fair and delicate, and it seemed to have the luster of jade. It was neither thick nor too thin. It was a perfect masterpiece.
Soon, another jade hand gently and weakly placed on Du Caige's arm.
Slim and tender as water onions, it seems to have magic power, which firmly attracts everyone's attention.
Everyone can't help but look forward to: just one leg and one hand are so beautiful, so full of temptation, what kind of magic power should that woman have?
Duan Xiaochen didn't make everyone wait too long.
Soon, she supported Du Caige's arm and walked out of the limousine. Tingting turned around and looked up.
That expression seemed shy and timid, weak and weak, showing the elegance and subtlety of the oriental beauty to the fullest.
She was wearing a red dress.
This red is a very bright red, and it seems like a jumping flame when walking, occupying people's entire line of sight.
The designer of the long skirt looks for inspiration from the ancient traditional costumes of the East, and even from the wedding dresses of the ancient women of Dahua, and incorporates many oriental retro elements into the design.
In the design of the pattern and the processing of some details, a very obvious oriental style can be seen...
