Chapter 1474: 1474
The next day .
Early in the morning, Zhang Ye rushed off to the Ministry of Culture .
There were also different tiers when it came to holding concerts . The easiest way to identify the scale of a concert would be its venue .
For the C- or D-list singers who were holding an experimental concert to gauge their popularity, a venue that held a thousand people would be good enough, especially in a place like Beijing . Many of the better venues required the organizers to line up and get approval to use them . Otherwise, they wouldn't even be considered for the venue . Meanwhile, the chance to perform at the bigger venues were only given to A- or B-list celebrities who were also professional singers . Only Heavenly Kings and Queens like Zhang Ye, Zhang Yuanqi, and Xu Meilan would be qualified to hold a performance at a venue which could hold tens of thousands of audience members!
10,000 audience members?
15,000 audience members?
That was already the highest, the peak!
Any higher than that? A venue that could hold 100,000 audience members?
No one had ever pulled that off before! It was virtually unheard of!
Olympic Stadium had only been completed a year ago . There were no cases of it being rented to a celebrity to hold a concert, nor did any celebrities even get such an idea . It was only Zhang Ye who dared to think of something like that . This fellow was already toying with the idea of holding his concert at Olympic Stadium . It was not that he was brave, but rather, many precedents had been set in Zhang Ye's previous world . The Olympics had taken place many years earlier in his previous world, so it was not as though there had not been celebrities who held their concerts at the Bird's Nest . Although the two worlds were different, whatever worked there should logically work here as well, so it should be worth a shot .
So he rushed over .
Others wanting to pass through the gates to the Ministry of Culture would not find it easy, but it wasn't so for Zhang Ye . He was the executive director of the previous Spring Festival Gala and had come across many executives in his work . He also knew a lot of people, so there wasn't a need for Old Wu's influence on this matter . Zhang Ye had his way around here just like he did at the SARFT .
At an office .
Zhang Ye knocked on the door and entered . "Supervisor Hu . "
Supervisor Hu looked up . "Aiyo, Director Zhang, what brought you here?"
"I came to visit you," Zhang Ye said with a smile .
Supervisor Hu was a shrewd man . "Come off it . It can't be anything good since you had to come here . Speak . " He got him to sit down, then called his secretary over to pour Zhang Ye a drink .
Zhang Ye did not stand on ceremony and said with a laugh, "Then I'll be straight . The ministry is in charge of the approval for cultural and music performances, right?"
Supervisor Hu nodded . "That is correct . "
Zhang Ye said, "Well, I would like to hold a concert . "
"Yo, that's a good thing . " Supervisor Hu smiled and said, "So why are you looking for me? With your influence, Boss Zhang, wouldn't it be easier to handle it through the SARFT?"
Zhang Ye smacked his lips and said, "The issue is not with the approval of the performance but the venue's approval . "
Supervisor Hu understood . "The venue? That won't be a problem . It's just a simple matter . " He picked up his phone . "So, which location do you have your eyes on? I'll get it approved for you immediately . "
Zhang Ye directly said, "O-lym-pic! Sta-di-um!"
Thud . The phone in Supervisor Hu's hand dropped . "What?"
Zhang Ye repeated himself .
Supervisor Hu was stunned . He reached out to touch Zhang Ye's forehead .
Zhang Ye asked, "What are you doing?"
Supervisor Hu replied, "I wanted to check if you have a fever!"
Zhang Ye laughed and said, "I don't have a fever . So can I hold it there?"
"Can you hold it there!" Supervisor Hu said, "How dare you even think about using the Olympic Stadium!"
Zhang Ye said, "If sports can be held there, or a large-scale event can be organized there, why not a concert? Isn't the schedule for that venue quite free recently? Let me book it . I'll help generate some revenue for them . The place would be empty otherwise . "
Supervisor Hu nearly fainted . "This isn't about generating revenue . Sports are sports, large-scale events are large-scale events, but what you have planned is something very different . You intend to hold a commercial performance there!"
At this moment, someone entered from outside .
Supervisor Chen was taken aback . "Eh, Zhang Ye is here?"
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "Hi, Brother Chen . "
