Bring Cambridge Street Artists to Shanghai
There are many street artists in Boston/Cambridge. I always see them in the subway stations. Today Huiling was joking with me that American's primary education is so successful that too many good musicians can only end up in the street. Another idea strikes me: why not import them into China's booming pub scene in metropolitan cities like Beijing and Shanghai? At the moment pub performance is dominated by Philippinos - strange phenomenon in Asia. I'm sure Chinese locals will welcome performance by American artists. I can set up an agency company to arrange events/performances for those American. For the pubs in Shanghai/Beijing it will be easier to deal with me directly as I have an inventory of such artists and guarantee steady supply of good performances; for American bands/artists no doubt it will be easier to deal with me directly than the pubs. The beauty of this business model is it doesn't take much capital to run. I just need to have some connections. The problem is it doesn't take much education to do this either. So why me?
