Chapter 2516 Hot Ticket Sales

Entering July, especially after the 15th day of the seventh month, many cities in Huaguo are full of excitement.

Because July 25th is the day when Michael Jackson officially started his Huaguo concert tour in the Bird's Nest.

Since the opening of the Olympic Games last year, the Bird's Nest has basically not been used much. Only a few world championships are held here. No matter the scale or the number of spectators, it is far from worth mentioning.

But this time Michael Jackson's concert was different.

All the tickets for the 8,000 fixed seats were sold out, the 20,000 tickets for the center of the venue were sold out, and the 11,000 temporary seats were also sold. If it weren’t for the fear of accidents caused by too many people, we could actually add another 10,000 seats. If you're a little bit darker, 20,000 standing tickets can be squeezed out.

As for the 140 boxes...

Hehe, as soon as Michael Jackson announced that he would come to the capital to hold a concert, he was robbed by all the rich kids and yamen ladies.

There are 140 private rooms, you don’t even have to be rich, and you don’t even need low-grade ones. Several people got the private rooms only through Tangquan’s network.

Of course, for people like Niu Xiaomei and Yu Sister, Qiao Guoer naturally reserved boxes for them. This was a good opportunity for her to give favors.

Just like Niu Xiaomei, when she told her that she could invite her friends to occupy a box alone to watch Michael Jackson's concert, she was so excited that she threw herself into Qiao Guo'er's arms and kissed Guo repeatedly. Sister-in-law several times.

Although Aunt Niu said something to Qiao Guoer angrily, saying that she spoiled this little girl too much, she was very satisfied in her heart.

Xiao Qi is like Niu Ruzheng's nephew, Qiao Guo'er is also close to them, and brings some small things and gifts over from time to time, most of them are food, clothing and housing, and never involve expensive things, so she accepts them Also very down-to-earth.

In addition, Qiao Guoer never asked Niu Ruzheng to do this or that, which made Aunt Niu even more satisfied.

She is not a fool. Can't you see who came to make friends with his family out of utilitarianism?

Qiao Guoer's assets from Xiao Qi alone exceeded 50 billion. Coupled with Xiao Qi's love and care, she has nothing to pursue at all, so she can naturally treat Niu Ruzheng's family with a normal heart.

Apart from these special people, more ordinary fans are usually busy running around just for a fixed seat or a ticket for a temporary seat.

Michael Jackson is the world's number one music superstar, and it will be the first and possibly the last time he will come to China for a concert. There are only two games in the capital!

The combination of so many factors allowed Xiaoniao.com and Kiwi Film and Television Group to set an unprecedentedly high ticket price.

Ticket prices for 10 concerts in the Mainland are 600, 1600, 3600, 5600, 8600, 12600, 16000.

Yes.

You read that right.

The lowest price is 600, and the highest single ticket price is 12600.

In addition, the average price of a box is 500,000, and the small one can bring 10 people in, while the largest one is 1 million, which can accommodate 20 people. Last year, Li Chaoren and other four Hong Kong rich men watched the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. The price spent is 2.5 million.

The pursuit of private rooms is not cost-effective, but a kind of style, and it can also be a place for the children of the rich to compete.

Therefore, all 140 boxes were sold out immediately. The box revenue of a concert has reached 100 million RMB, which is jaw-dropping.

Whether it's Qiao Guoer or Shen Wuyan. The box used for favors is paid at the normal price, and it will not be free of money just because the two of them are the proprietresses of the host. It is the worst behavior to separate public and private.

At the beginning, such a high ticket price really shocked the people in the capital, who have always been rich and powerful. 600 yuan is enough to see a VIP seat for a second-rate star! Why is this the farthest and worst location?

But this time the tickets are sold for 12 games together, all online. People on the capital side are still hesitating, and the tickets on the east side are all sold out.

"Ala Dongfang people like idols. They are definitely not afraid to spend money! You only watch Michael Jackson once in your life, so how can you save money?"

"Yes! It's just one month's salary. What's the big deal? I'm not like those guys in the north. I'm coquettish all day long. When I really see the truth, I'm scared!"

"Haha, my fans in Dongfang City are still so powerful. Michael, seeing how enthusiastic we are, do you consider holding 10 concerts in Dongfang? Don't worry, we can afford it!"

"It's not just your Dongfang City, is it? Our Gusu and Lin'an also organized a group to buy it! It's really disgusting, why not Lin'an and Gusu?"

"The fans in Yangzhou also protested softly. There should be a concert in every city! I have been a fan of Michael Jackson for 10 years!"

"20 years of die-hard fans don't explain! I bought 16,000 tickets, here comes my idol!"

"..."

People in the capital are the most face-saving people in Huaguo. Seeing the fans in Dongfang City and the surrounding areas froze over there, the popularity here exploded.

"What are you doing? What are you doing? How much can your East Stadium hold? We have 111,000 seats here! It's much more than yours, so naturally we have to sell slower!"

"Forget it, I don't hesitate anymore, just like what they said, it's just a month's salary, are you afraid?"

"I'm going to buy it too! It's amazing that I sold my beloved IPHONE!"

"600 is still acceptable, I'll bring a telescope, I still can't bear Michael!"

"Men and young men in the capital, you don't lose if you lose. This is the only chance to see Jackson's concert!"

"Sorry, my hesitation is just thinking, should I watch one or two concerts. Thank you, I have already bought tickets for two concerts, and I can watch them twice!"

"Bastard! You are so treacherous, I will add a second scene too!"

"..."

Snapping things up, usually in a tense atmosphere, works well.

Online ticket sales started a long time ago, but it was the first attempt by Xiaoniao.com and Kiwi Film and Television Group to sell tickets for 12 Michael Jackson concerts online.

Now it seems that the speed of ticket sales is very fast, it only takes half a day. Tickets were all sold out.

And there are strict restrictions here, one ID card must correspond to one ticket. Foreigners can also buy passports, but they are not allowed to buy two passports, and they must be verified together with the ticket and ID card when entering the venue. It is not that the person is not allowed to enter. This is mainly to prevent scalping tickets.

But this kind of thing can't be stopped. The scalpers always have the opportunity to find a loophole, and more than 110,000 people entered the venue. It will also give them a chance.

Tickets for the two concerts in the capital directly sold for 700 million yuan, and the two concerts cost 1.4 billion yuan.

The ones in Dongfang are less, about 1 billion, the ones in Guangdong and Nanwan are both 800 million, and the ones in Rongcheng are much less, only 600 million in the two games.

The Hong Kong Stadium can accommodate up to 40,000 people, but the income of Hong Kong people is so high, the same price as the mainland seems to be too sorry for the audience. So Qiao Guoer and Shen Wuyan discussed with Feng Kexin and Li Shaozhi, and the direct price was doubled. As a result, the Hong Kong fans still bought all the tickets without blinking their eyes, and now the revenue of the two shows has reached 1 billion RMB.

This does not include the naming rights of the concert, various sponsorships, interview rights, DVD recording rights, billboards, ticket advertisements, drinks in the venue, souvenir sales, etc. income. For example, Coca-Cola frantically bought out the naming rights of this concert with a super high price of 300 million yuan.

On the whole, it can reach a super high income of 6 billion yuan.

However, there is a lot of income and a lot of expenses. The concert equipment is all airlifted from the United States. The venue rental, security, etc. for each concert are also expensive expenses, and you have to pay taxes...

Fortunately, the food and lodging of Michael Jackson's group of hundreds of people was covered by small local sponsors. Another substantial cost reduction.

Fortunately, because Michael Jackson's concert in China is an opportunity to increase China's reputation, the police systems in various places will actively send a large number of police forces to maintain order. This does not cost money, but in the end you still have to donate a sum of money to the police station, which is called reciprocity.

In the end, the net profit of the 12 concerts is about 400 million US dollars.

Then the 400 million US dollars will be divided, and Michael Jackson's huge music team will get 250 million US dollars, of which he will get 150 million US dollars, which is 50 million more than the previous estimate, and the remaining 100 million will be paid by his 100-member music team. Team points.

As the organizer on the American side, Big Machine Corporation received 100 million US dollars in revenue, and the remaining 50 million was shared equally between Little Bird Network and Kiwi Film and Television Group.

At first glance, Xiaoniao.com and Kiwi Film and Television Group paid the most, because they did all the work, but they got the least, which was a bit unfair.

But we can't just look at the $50 million.

First of all, the first one is to operate Michael Jackson to hold a concert in China, and it is so popular that it has completely established the names of the two companies, and it is enough to give European and American superstars, Hong Kong and Taiwan superstars a deep impression Impression, if there is such a large-scale concert in the future, I will definitely contact them first.

Then for Michael Jackson's concert, Huaguo's singing guests were chosen by Xiaoniao.com and Kiwifruit, which caused the two companies to sell a lot of favors, which was a valuable network resource-no one Things that you can't get in, get your benefits, and others will naturally give you back.

Therefore, looking at it comprehensively, the two companies, Xiaoniao.com and Kiwifruit, can be regarded as gaining both fame and fortune! (to be continued ~^~)
