The opening of China Entertainment Group gave Jay Chou a head-on confrontation

Chapter 693: The small meaning is too crazy, let's just say it's medium meaning
"Then forget it."

"It's too expensive, too expensive. I won't go."

"I'd better go to school first."

"..."

Almost at the same time, Harry Kane, Neymar and Rashford, three children who wanted to go to Zhou Yi's concert to see the world, decisively chose to give up after hearing from their relatives and friends that the prices were too high for them to afford.

Three days ago, they thought that the scalper ticket prices were inflated and might be reduced, but now they regret it and wish they could break their thighs.

This was probably because this was Zhou Yi's first concert in London since his debut. Not only local people in London and the UK, but even people from nearby countries flew here just to watch Zhou Yi's concert.

This group of people even bought tickets for two shows in a row——

I bought all the tickets for both concerts on July 7nd and 2rd.

Everyone knows that Zhou Yi will be busy with his album and the Olympics next. This may be Spike's only concert in the UK this year. The scarcity has caused the price to rise rapidly in the secondary market, leading to the current situation.

"What a shame! If the ticket price could be as high as Arsenal's season finale, how much would it cost?"

Qian Jiang, who had been busy with the concert arrangements, smacked his lips, looking very regretful.

In Arsenal's last few games half a month ago, because of the team's outstanding performance, tickets for good seats were directly sold for thousands or even tens of thousands of pounds each, and even standing tickets were priced at more than one hundred or two hundred pounds.

If possible, he would also like to match the scalper price.

Zhou Yi chewed his pear calmly and ruthlessly shattered his agent's fantasy: "Don't dream, this price is already a pleasant surprise."

"Arsenal are going crazy with joy. Do you know how much they have raised their expected revenue for the two days of your concert? A full £200 million!"

Qian Jiang raised three fingers and came closer mysteriously.

As the club with the most expensive tickets in the Premier League and one of the most expensive snack prices, Arsenal's Highbury Stadium has always been famous for "ripping off customers".

People have to eat, right?

You have to buy something small as a souvenir, right?

Dozens of pounds were easily spent at Highbury.

You have to know that Zhou Yi's concert is at 7:30 in the evening. At this time, some people haven't eaten yet, some people will want to have a midnight snack after the show, and some people will just make a small purchase in the Highbury shops since they are here.

This is all money!
Not to mention the surrounding hotels, accommodation, food and massage.

With this series of income, it’s no wonder that others are jealous.

Especially Liverpool, which has no money.

"Now other cities are contacting me like crazy, wanting you to hold concerts there to generate revenue. Especially Liverpool, their Anfield Stadium is open to you at any time during the off-season."

Qian Jiang shook his head, looking quite proud.

Arsenal Club's commercial development department is also equally proud.

According to their estimates, Zhou Yi's two concerts are expected to attract more than 800 people, which will bring Arsenal an additional income of around 1000- million pounds.

This made many people jealous.

Especially that noisy neighbour, Arsenal's arch-rival in North London: Tottenham Hotspur.

The day after the news broke, Tottenham Hotspur reporter Matthew Morrison immediately published an article to refute Arsenal's exaggeration:

“Fake News!”

The title is concise and to the point.

They were already being trampled on by their arch-rivals Arsenal this year, and had to watch them ascend to the throne in their own home stadium. Now that they saw the extra income brought in by Zhou Yi, the feeling was simply worse than killing them.

But the British Financial Times, which followed closely, spent a page to combine all the information released by Warner and Arsenal officials, and speculated on the relevant income, which was almost the same as the rumor -

"More than 7 tickets were sold out in three days, and the 2 tickets that were added were sold out in one day." Warner has announced that it has ended the sale of 56326 tickets for the first Spike concert on July . It also announced that it will start pre-sale of tickets for the second concert a week later, with the same number of tickets as the first.

"Based on the average ticket price of 120 pounds, Spike's single show box office is 6759120 yuan. The total box office of the two shows is expected to exceed million pounds, breaking the British single concert box office record since the new century..."

Considering the authority of the Financial Times in this area, this figure is somewhat shocking.

A Chinese man created a concert box office record that is difficult for British singers in the new century to match!
Liverpool Echo, a well-known Liverpool media in the UK, even directly used Madonna as a comparison:

Madonna's current concert tour alone has a peak box office of just over 4.7 million U.S. dollars per show.

For a moment, the reporters who had previously been accusing Zhou Yi of not being so arrogant fell into a rare state of silence.

If an album is a display of a singer's personal strength, then a concert is a reflection of a singer's commercial value.

If you have many fans who are loyal and have strong purchasing power, then your commercial value will be great, and concerts are precisely such a channel for fans to spend money to support their idols.

What is even more commendable is that the Book of Changes comes from overseas.

He's not fucking British!

Daily Mirror: "The darkest day in British music history"

The Sun: Spike suspected of being in love with French actress

The Independent: This is the tragedy of British music

《……》:《……》

Among all the major British newspapers, only The Sun remained true to its original intention and secretly photographed Zhou Yi chatting with Eva Green from the next door every now and then in the training base.

It can be called a breath of fresh air.

On the 16th, when accepting an exclusive interview with the BBC, Zhou Yi was also asked related questions by reporters:

"Spike, I heard that your concert attracted a lot of people this time, breaking the record for the number of people attending a single concert in the UK since the new century. Is this true? You know, people are spreading this now."

"It's just over 50,000. Is 50,000 a lot? I don't think it's a lot at all. Not much."

Zhou Yi shook his head repeatedly: "Really, it's only 50,000, not much."

Just kidding, I've held concerts with real 80,000 people, this is nothing.

The BBC reporter was choked and asked: "You mean this is easy for you to do, a piece of cake?"

"That should be the case. These 50,000 people are nothing to me. Well, forget it. I can't say it's nothing. That would make me look too arrogant, and I'd get scolded."

After taking back what he had just said, Zhou Yi moved his butt on the sofa, raised his chin, and said firmly: "It's about average."

reporter:"……"

host:"……"

You might as well just say it’s a piece of cake!

"What a stinky man."

“I didn’t expect he was such a singer.”

"nausea!"

At a Tottenham fan gathering in North London, 16-year-old Adele Adkins raised her middle finger at the rampant guy on TV along with the fans around her!
"Shut up! You stupid pig!"

She is a die-hard Tottenham fan, Arsenal's arch-enemy.
