(C) DAVOS / HS / CPU RASKRUTOCHKA ROCK STAR ATE MY HAMSTER * Once in office, Cecil Pitt, an agent a small Broadway theater, there was a conversation ... - Here we are! - Pitt, rolling it to his lips wrinkled cigar - Everything! I was kicked out of Theater forever! They say you fucked do their job, can not book a good hotel, do not know how develop leisure artists! .. Clive, constant assistant in the Pitt all of its illegal business, knowingly shook his head. Suddenly his eyes lit up Pitt greedy twinkle. Put out a cigar on the cover Wallpapers, Pitt picked up his index finger and hurriedly blurted out: - Damn! Rock music - that's where we are waiting for our money! Here, every pound of investment quickly pays for itself! - Boss, what do you mean? - asked Pitt Clive. - What? - Pitt chuckled nastily - What ... Ha! .. Honest to God, to open the music business - pretty good idea! - WHAT? - Asked Clive. - No, Clive, you just think - we You and I will managers of some singer sekesh? Interesting it will zashibat beshshshenye money! I'll be a manager, and thou shalt be my assistant. Well, as you this idea? Cool? - Yes! - Clive picked up - great! - I think that with an initial capital 50 000 pounds, we can start a business. - Yes, Chef! Rock 'n' roll - that's where we are we make money! Gather your team, dunk tour around the world! Opening prospects had turned future showmen head. Pitt, rather rubbing his thick hairy arms, smiling and tirelessly ranting: - It's a gold mine, Clive! Money just lie in our way and we need them just pick up! - Hello, boss! Brilliant! - Clive applauded - I just have a cassette with demos fifty Starter Stars! - Oba-na! Faster, cut in the system! - Sweeps! Clive Turn on the VCR and TV. Looking at the on-screen faces and listening to the music pouring from the speakers, Pitt vaguely grasped comments Clive: - WACKY JACKO, a rising star pop music ... But all the thoughts came down to Pitt odnomuon counting future profits from his new project entitled CECIL PITT MANAGEMENT PRESENTS ---------------------------------------- Actually what you read at the top are the events leading up to the fact ugorazdilo as you get into the world of show business. It will be the actual story of the the game itself and my helpful comments. The purpose of the game: during the year must be "Spin," Stars, organize writing album, to rise to the top of the steps of the charts and get four gold disc's most prestigious music awards! * - How many stars take the "unwind" the boss? - Immediately after loading the game Ask you Clive. Maximum artists can take four. By the way, in any case, if you take more than one beneath the stove, you have already obtained a group. Cluster function can push some sonorous name for your team (chtonibud type "BROKEN ROCKETS"). But, since like Clive vocabulary is limited, you yourself can choose a name for his team, Clive will not mind. - - Once you decide with the number "untwisted" stars Clive Ask you: - What belongings will buy wards? But I can not tell you that: SPANKING NEW - new clothes, it is worth exactly 7,000 pounds. SECOND HAND - Owned duds, respectively, and the price is less of a 4,900 lbs. DODGY GEAR - bomzhovsky outfit, Quite simply, torn. And the price is right what a pathetic 2,000 pounds! By the way, please note that for every artist you buy 1 set of clothes. Then is, if you have two artists, you get two sets of clothes, etc. After finishing this important point, you again hear the voice of Clive: - Hey, boss! Than loans now? And on the screen you will see a menu: PRACTICE GIG PUBLICITY GIFTS Let us examine each item in detail. So ... PRACTICE - rehearsals. "Hmm, we select for vremyachko rehearsals? OK, boss. Space rental for reptitsy worth 100 pounds a day! How many days will muryzhit ward? "- Says Clive. Well, rehearse can be from 1 to 5 days. If you do this seem a little, you can once more go to This menu item. After graduation rehearsal Clive will express to you my opinion on it ("Nam, boss!" or "Lazha! Lazha!"). COMMENT: In my opinion, very the desired item. Here your players train your ears with your cat's concert and the crowd of fans quietly live a n-number of days of Noah, which is fraught with so that your song will climb up steps of the charts (but more on that - below). GIG - performances. Quite simply, concerts. After selecting this item Clive will tell you: "Where will play, boss? "and offer a choice of: - PUBS, pub. Capacity 200 people, the rental price 10 pounds a night; - CLUBS, club. Accommodates 500 person renting the club will cost you 1000 pounds per week; - UNIVERSITIES, University. Capacity is equal to 1500, the price for rent reaches 2,800 pounds; - CONCERT HALLS, a concert hall. That's where you can make a good ottyag for music-hungry People, as the hall is designed for 4000 people, and price for the lease of a 7,000 pounds per evening; - STADIUM, the stadium. Grand! A good place to earn deneg.Vmestimost 10,000 fellows, the rental price stadium of 16,500 pounds per week! Having defined the venue party, you will specify the amount of tickets (TICKET) - 2, 5, 10, 15 or 20 pounds, and then specify the number of concerts (In one evening you will give one concert). Minimum - two nights, maximum - seven nights. However, if you change your mind, then to your disposal option is CANCEL. COMMENT: I think all moved in, that there needs to be done. PUBLICITY - Notes to the newspaper. Advertisement ma your star. - Good move, boss! - Vosliknet Clive - I'll write a note in the "STUNT"! Sense from advertising, in general, a little bit. At best, Clive rasstaraetsya for you and your photo will get an artist to the first page of newspapers with some screaming headlines like: "Rock Star Attack Bee-killer!" or "Rock Star - In Each house! ". Otherwise, the front page of the newspaper will publish the picture half-naked aunts, and somewhere in the very inconspicuous place write: "rock star swells of hunger, see page 9!. "That's Behold! .. EXPERT COMMENT: Advertising Actually, a delicate matter. At least in the "ROCKSTAR". Contact with it should carefully, otherwise for some unknown reason, the newspaper writes, "The rock stars died in TIME NEZAPLANIROVANOY orgy! "Or "Rock stars killed in plane crash!". Or do such .... - "Rock Star ZASHIBLO death Vigorous BOMB!". Cool is not it? But the result of these notes will be the same your "rockstar" suddenly passes away. But, nevertheless, we must not forget that advertising - is the engine of trade. Occasionally, from promotion of singles, you can publish a note, but there is a risk that your ward ... See above. One way to fight: to make your group - think of it, one more or one less ... GIFTS - Gifts to your ward. - Well, boss? Happy just takogoto chuvachka? - Say, Clive - Here spisochek that we can give our "Rokzvezde. Prices are attached .... CARS - car price 20 000 ` JEWELS - Jewelry, price 10 000 ` CLOTHES - Clothing, price 5000 ` DRINKS - Drinks, price 100 ` FOOD - the food, the price of 50 ` COMICS - comic books, the price of 1 ` BACKGROUND: The number of gifts equals the number of artists. However, your protégé well survive without the Gift, that's only shalt they need to buy new .... that way, five months after early tour ... :) And occasionally, especially before you publish the article in newspaper, feed your wards. Well, the menu is over. So far. Now we will focus on telephone calls, which will be distributed from time to time in your office. The first type of calls - Alla! - Clive put his ear to the tube, yes, yes, this we ... What? .. - Closing palm up, Clive turned to Pitt, - Chef, a call from the Relief Society. - What do they want? - Carelessly Pitt pulnuv butt into the trash. - They want to know your opinion about the charity concert in the starving members ... That they say? The first type of call - a freeloader of the Relief Society, offer you make a charitable kontsertik. How zkie types! Like, if you agree, then the chances are that you obsmeyut newspapermen, accused of being too charitable. A say these cadres "NO", so again can happen is such garbage that vile newspaper people accuse you of being too greedy to money, he says, "sharashka Pitt - is mob hunt before the money rascals! ". And sometimes a charity concert you are at hand - to make the next charity raided by the Volga region, you will see the latest issue of the newspaper with a portrait of your ward and the headline "ROCKSTAR gave Charity Concert! ". Besides, sometimes you can send comrades from the Charitable Society far away, and you for it will be nothing! :) The second type of calls - Yes, the office of Pitt's - Clive scratched chin, clutching the phone to your ear with shoulder, That, in sponsoring us being imposed? .... Boss, a local brewery offers us himself sponsors. They promise to give us 100 tysch if we live we will post their ads. What do they say? Yes, the sponsors - it's cool. But always there are some "buts". In this case, a couple of "but" there are: - Sponsors usually call you after how you have "spin" and are not experiencing financial difficulties; - It has been observed: if the seal leaked bad information on your sponsor ("And, damn it! Pyvo suky razbaulyaut water!"), then you get a paradrugaya trouble - for example, sharply reduced traffic to your concerts. So you need a SPONSOR or not, your work purely personal. The third type of calls - Hey, boss! On the wire guys from S + M RECORDS! They invite us to his studio to record an album. In an advance they will give us 30 000 and with the implementation of our will unfasten 15%. What do they say? Typically, with recording studios you call after a successful tour. Please note that with each new call studio offers you a great percentage from the sale of your upcoming album, which is pretty good. The table lists the calls from the studios and their suggestions: entry N | Cash |% from sales 1 | 5000 `| 3% 2 | 10000 `| 5% 3 | 20000 `| 10% 4 | 30000 `| 15% 5 | 50 000 `| 20% As you can see, with each new call studio will offer you a deal on more favorable terms for you. Last word of the studio - a call (sunset) N5, and if you give up on such a deal, studios will forget about you. Anyone with a huckster's touch not hotstsa! In the case of your consent in the main menu will have another fad - "RECORD", which means "record". But about it - below. If you respond to an offer studio refused, then: - ... Go nafig! What do you have takes a? For pobirushek? - Clive threw Labour BCU on the lever - How do you like, 15 percent ... The fourth type of calls - Bad news, boss! Dirty little company in Taiwan for selling our pisyami! What do we do? Well, so you vereschanie Clive face only if you are already in full trading videos and write new ones. These measures control is proposed to: - DO NOTHING - to do nothing. Pirates of how to trade your notes, and they will sell. - SUE THE SCUM - go to court. The process can win and stop flow of pirated goods, at a cost of approximately 80,000 '. ("YEAH! Chef, we won the case!" Our costs were just 80,000 and we have stopped the pirates! "Will tell Clive). But it may well be the case that the process you lose (LOSE), losing 300,000 ', and the pirates as if nothing used to continue to sell your singles ("The Chief is not lucky! Pirates found the excuse. We have lost business and lost 300000 ... "). - SEND THE BOYS ROUND - hire thugs. Prekrasnenko, is not it? Gopnik hired you come to Taiwan and naderut pirates ass. Varvasky method, of course, but it triggered, and virtually trouble-free. And most importantly, not expensive, somewhere within the 90,000 `. - BUY $ / * @ OUT - to pay the pirates, that they have ceased to Trade your singles. COMMENT: The most effective way to suppress the activities of pirates is a trip you hired to Gopnik the place of dislocation of pirates. Do not dispute that the method against several barbarian, but what a result! The fifth type of calls - Oooy, damn it, - swore Clive, shaking in a minibus - the Boss, charged us tax. - Yes? How much? - Million pounds! - Ooooy, $ @? /*#$.... This type of call is extremely rare. In general, the call may go off at a moment when you are with Clive nourish the bus from a concert. And even then, this zvonchek tax inspector is only possible when things have you are in full swing - you're on tour And it is trading in his album. The sixth type of calls - Boss! - Clive put his feet on the mixing console, - We have PE! Producer with a competing firm slyamzil our master tape and demands a ransom for her - one million pounds. What do we pay? This call odnositsya to the form of disposable, as it can go off at that point, you just write down your album. By the way, if during the recording Clive says that the last disk tracks sucks for the written and they need to be rewritten, expect a call competition! So, with calls like, clear. RECORD - this item will appear in the menu if you will agree ilis to offer a recording studio. Having a Cash (CASH) "cartoon" with penny, you can start recording his hit album. In general, the record album goes somewhere three or four weeks. You have chosen to click "RECORD". The first thing you should determine on how many tracks you record your masterpieces. Naturally, the longer tracks on the disc, the more worth recording. After selecting the disk with the correct number of tracks (in fact we are talking about number of tracks on the master teype affecting the quality of record - Ed.) begins the actual writing process itself. You Go Pitt and Clive, sitting at the mixing console, and your artists. - Well, let's go! - Says Clive and presses the button. After listening to a set of sounds called music, Clive has delivered its opinion on just a recorded song and will offer its name for it, asking you: "Well as will fit such a name? ". Your deal or accept (Clive says: " OK, boss! Let's go write the next one! ") or call the tune in its own way. Writing the entire album, you will return to main menu and you will see that item "RECORD" will change to paragraph "RELEASE" (for sale). COMMENT: Can there be such garbage, when you record your album. Clive says: - Hello, boss! This is the best album! And this time it rings N5. Actually, on this and need to have "Multi", choosing "RECORD". RELEASE - implementation. You can start the sale as individual singles, and all the album (for him you will need to choose a name). A Singles ... Enough simply select it from the list and the single goes on sale. - Boss! - Say, Clive - and not whether we do on this song clip? - And that - thinking, Pitt replied, - Can be bungled and the clip. Selecting the first director of the clip, and then the place of filming, you need will choose one of the topics for the clip. And - pliz - the clip is ready! Is the theme begins when you have already recorded an album and launched its sale. There will be charts (CHARTS) in two categories - a dozen best songs (SINGLES CHART), and a dozen best album (ALBUM CHART). Most interesting that the sale of songs directly depends on what position the song (And / or album) took the hit parade. Actually, the schedule of sales shown on the screen (SALES) and it clearly shows demand for your hits. Question (Q) and answers (B) Q: How do I get in the hit parade? A: The most important thing - 'untwist' artist, collecting full stadiums. Next should remove the cool video with the director of the 1 "lemon" or 3 "lemon" (Note: no song clip is unlikely to fall to the hit parade). It makes sense to advertise. Once your song will be in the top ten, released an album! (Note: estessno that multiple clips in succession to produce nafig not necessary, as the good of this will not happen). Q: How do I get a gold disc? A: "It's very simple! To nadybat gold disc, we had a little effort and letting cool video, drag the album to the very top chart. And a few weeks to stay leader (Places from first to fifth). A heel beat in the chest - will drive! " :) Oh, and Coy then: better settle for a record album from the first call, since both Income from the sale of the plates is small, but Waiting bargain will be lost a lot of valuable time (and because of that can "chutchut did not have enough time to get of the last gold record). Q: What are the symbols on the charts? A: For the ignorant and the forgotten: Arrow UP - the clip went up on the n positions; Down arrow - clip fell down on the n positions;> symbol
