Chapter 623 Radio Symphony Orchestra

After the topic of art title came to an end.

Some chaebol groups, art venues and local county politicians of the empire expressed their interest in cooperating with the "World Music Radio" that Fanning showed the night before.

Some of them want to use it as communication technology, such as the railway company is planning to build an "emergency command center" and Hezhong Fruit Industry wants to build a "logistics and transportation division".

Art management practitioners and local officials saw a future trend or prospect in Fanning's big move.

A new thing that can be called "xx Radio Symphony Orchestra"!

Yes, just now at least 3 art venues and 5 local politicians have shown great interest in the establishment of the local "xx Radio Symphony Orchestra"!

In fact, in the classical music world of Fanning's previous life, in addition to the "Philharmonic Orchestra" and "Festival Orchestra", the "Radio Symphony Orchestra" is another important component.

As the name implies, this refers to the symphony groups that emerged in the early 20th century with the rise of radio communication technology. Most of them are attached to local broadcasting organizations and provide performance services to the people in the covered areas.

Some modern people who lack understanding may not expect that the music radio that Germans have heard for more than a hundred years does not rely on the host to lightly switch the equipment to play music, but there is really a symphony orchestra behind it playing for you.

Especially after World War II, the construction of radio symphony orchestras quickly became an important measure for the development of public cultural undertakings in many countries. They not only retain the historical tradition of European music, have a profound foundation and superb level, but also have a trend of the times.

Now in Fanning's life, on the one hand, the industrial gentlemen and cultural politicians in the North Continent have such forward-looking needs, and on the other hand, the West Continent and the South Continent are now facing similar problems to the "World War II"!

——A considerable number of opera houses and concert halls have been destroyed, and a large number of musicians and conductors cannot immediately engage in music activities.

They all hope to purchase a batch of "World Radio" equipment, and hope that Turner Hall can provide technical guidance.

In this regard, Fanning expressed his welcome and support.

However, he made some explanations truthfully.

If he was helping the other party build, first of all, he couldn't have the "projection" effect like himself, only sound. Of course, the sound quality is still almost "lossless".

Secondly, the coverage range cannot be spread all over the world. If we take the northern continent as an estimate, it is estimated that 6-7 radio stations are needed to cover the empire's land and sea territories.

According to Fanning's words, this is due to some technical reasons and mysterious reasons.

The real reason behind it is a bit embarrassing: because Fanning only has one Qiming Church.

You use it, I use it, and everyone uses it. If there is a collision in time, there will be 360-degree surround ghosting.

But if other radio stations give up the "projection" function and only have sound, Fanning found after trying that they can achieve non-interference!

Because he can use the invisible power of the "key" phase to divide the area of ​​Qiming Church into a limited area, and each radio station can sound and project without interfering with each other!

Well, it's just like renting a parking space.

Of course, the best position is the reception platform, which still belongs to you. Other rented radio stations should find a place under the reception platform.

Anyway, if the sound is blocked, there will be no difference. When projecting their own "World Radio", they don't have to worry about projecting strange things.

After listening to Fanning's explanation of the restrictions, these partners said that it was okay.

Originally, they were local people, and they were targeting the market where they were.

A radio station can cover five or six counties or even seven or eight counties in a timely manner, without the need for layer-by-layer broadcasting, the sound effect is "lossless", and there is even an indescribable emotional resonance. What else is there to worry about?

They said they wanted Fanning to name a price, including technology, equipment, and mysticism-related consumables.

Fanning said that radio equipment and other things can be purchased normally on the market, and extraordinary consumables are similar. These people have their own channels to contact official organizations.

What do you need? Just make a list for them to purchase by themselves. Share for free, it's not a confidential patent.

I mainly charge for "installation, debugging and operation and maintenance"!

As for the specific charging model, Fanning said that for installation and debugging, the Turner Art Hall only needs to pay the travel and labor costs, and each main station or listening point will only cost tens to hundreds of pounds.

Mainly for operation and maintenance services, the fee is paid annually!

As for the unit price, it is calculated based on the population of the covered area. After all, this thing directly determines the market size, and every citizen is the current or future audience.

The charging standard proposed by Fanning is 0.5 pence per person per year. It doesn’t matter if the demographic data is delayed, just calculate it according to the latest official caliber!

These local politicians and venue managers calculated in their hearts that if it is a coverage area with a population of 40 million, the annual fee is about 80,000 pounds. If it is a prosperous area in the north of the empire, 100 million people will be more than 200,000 pounds.

This technology upgrade fee is definitely not expensive.

The main reason is that the annual fee of 80,000 to 200,000 pounds does not require the government financial resources of a single county to bear!

Because there are several counties in a district, they are equivalent to the second-level cooperative units of the radio station.

Then those art venues, symphony orchestras, or smaller local cities are equivalent to third-level cooperative units.

Even in a sense, the main station still makes money!

The person in charge of the National Northern Radio based in St. Taranburg made the decision on the spot! The person in charge of the Eastern Tioleian Radio Station and the "Voice of Janus" Radio Station in the Western Continent followed immediately.

"Master Fan Ning, for such a mystical large-scale project, I'm afraid you will have to work harder in secret."

"But we must embrace the times." Fan Ning smiled noncommittally.

In fact, I am only going to send a low-level or mid-level knowledgeable person to help you install it, he added secretly in his heart.

A knowledgeable person who studies "Candle" or "Key" takes the temporary secret contract he drew and goes to the site to draw a witness talisman of "Endless Fugue". Then he tries the effect several times and gives guidance to the construction workers. Just adjust the altar slightly.

As for "operation and maintenance", doesn't it mean waiting for the spiritual fluid in the secret atmosphere to be used up, then sending someone to erase the witness talisman, add the spiritual fluid they purchased themselves, and then draw it again?

After the "World Radio" matter was discussed, Prince Louis, the deliverer of the invitation letter for yesterday's investiture ceremony and an investor in the Hoffman Record Publishing Company, approached him alone.

Anyway, Walter on the side was completely stunned.

"Uh, Master Fan Ning, how much amount of cooperation intention have you negotiated in more than an hour? Well, there were really a lot of people who came just now. They spoke too fast and the efficiency was too high."

"I don't know either. You can go back and add some." Fan Ning was holding a glass of rose water, leaning on the seat and looking at the fountain outside the floor-to-ceiling window.

"If these projects can all be implemented this year, then the financial situation of our theater chain will be reduced." Walter felt a sense of relief on his shoulders.

"I wonder, Mr. Director, have you ever paid attention to the rankings of Tioline's chaebol groups, or the operating data of the top art venues in our industry?" Fan Ning asked suddenly.

"Other industry groups? They really don't pay much attention." Walter answered truthfully, "But the business conditions of art venues are naturally the focus of research."

"Due to the existence of chain theaters, our current volume is the largest in the world. Well, I know this is not necessarily an advantage. Because the expansion speed is too fast and the profitability of third- and fourth-level theaters is poor, cash flow is very tight. If we say In terms of profit margin, we are now barely around 10th, and because the base is so large, every improvement is extremely difficult.”

"This 10th place is meaningless." Fan Ning laughed. "Did you know that Turner Art Hall is also a registered company, or group. Our assets, revenue and profits are only in the Tioline Empire. Just outside the 200th place!”

He pointed at Walter opposite him and then at himself: "Among the large group of people just now, you and I are probably at the bottom of the poverty spectrum."

Walter was startled.

"Of course, the original intention of our business is not to become a chaebol, but it is difficult to do things without money, my Mr. Director."

Fan Ning stretched and slowly stood up from his seat.

"To achieve the things we envisioned, we need more nutrition externally and a healthier body internally."

"Master Fan Ning, good afternoon."

"It is an honor for us to be able to participate in the award ceremony of the Order of the Thistle with you later."

"Haha, of course, the meaning behind it is different. You are the official 'Boethius' artist, and we are just nominating."

Four more gentlemen in formal suits came over to say hello and sat down on the couch next to Fan Ning.

Four artists who have recently been promoted to "Lion Forging"? Fanning read the subtext of their pleasantries.

Four "forged lions" suddenly appeared, and they actually received the highest-level Imperial Thistle Medal? Has the art industry been so prosperous in recent years? Or is it that the Special Patrol Office's "potential artist" discovery plan has "realized" again?

Walter found that his boss didn't seem to be very familiar with the people who came to say hello this time. Finally, the value of his trip was put to use, and he got ahead of these people who wanted to introduce themselves: " Master Fan Ning, let me introduce you."

He put his fingers together and stretched out his hand, pointing to the person sitting closest to him.

The artist's face was a little haggard, his figure was a little thin, and his shoulders could not hold up the dress well. Facing the gazes of several people, his greetings were very polite, but there was almost no movement at the corners of his mouth.

"This is Mr. Solomon Hershey, a great composer, pianist, and special music critic of the emerging art journal "End of the Century". He gained recognition in the art world with his collection of atonal piano works "Winter Fables" published in 915 of the New Calendar. favor"
