Huayu: Starting from Fahrenheit

Chapter 239 Japan Concert Ticket Revenue

Fahrenheit's concert at the Taipei Arena had a very significant influence.

The next morning, news about the concert appeared in most media outlets in Taiwan.

"Fahrenheit sang at the Taipei Arena, and the atmosphere was extremely hot." - Taiwan Provincial Daily News.

"After two years since debut, Fahrenheit has delivered a perfect answer. The first concert attracted 8 people. Richie Jen showed up at the scene and was as crazy as a child." - TVB with picture of Richie Jen.

"Yesterday, the first concert of Fahrenheit's Asia Tour kicked off at Taipei Arena. Fahrenheit sang the song "Super Girl" from their new album at the concert, which received unanimous praise from fans." - Entertainment New Times.

"Jay Chou showed up at Fahrenheit's concert. Was he trying to spy on the enemy or was he showing sympathy for Wu Chao?" - Music Pioneer.

There is also a lot of discussion about this concert on the Internet.

Many netizens who have personally visited the scene have been posting comments.

"It was so exciting. I went there with my girlfriend and I had seen Eason Chan's concert before.

I originally thought that Fahrenheit’s concert would be like Eason Chan’s, with the singer standing there like a telephone pole and singing.

I didn’t expect the atmosphere to be so heated, and the two-hour concert was almost non-stop.”

"As far as the atmosphere is concerned, this Fahrenheit concert is definitely worth bragging about. I stood and yelled the whole night, and when I woke up today, my throat was so sore that I couldn't stand it."

"I love the song 'Super Girl' so much, but I don't know when it will be available online or as a physical record."

"The looks of Fahrenheit in this concert are so cool, I really want to take one of them home!"

……

The topic of this concert was very hot on the Internet and in the media.

Wu Zhuo and other members of Fahrenheit continued to prepare for the next performance after the concert.

Concerts can be very troublesome sometimes.

Among them, every region and venue.

Because fans’ favorite songs are different, the song selections for the concerts are also different.

For example, in Hong Kong, fans there prefer to listen to Cantonese songs, so singers must give priority to Cantonese songs when choosing songs.

If there are no Cantonese songs, you should also investigate which songs local fans like.

You can’t always sing songs that people don’t like!

Then Japan and South Korea.

When we get there, Japanese and Korean songs will definitely be the main hits.

In addition, the costumes and appearances are different in each show.

And all these things need to be prepared in advance.

But that’s not all.

The singer also needs to communicate with the concert band and at least rehearse a few times.

With all these things added together, singers will naturally be very busy.

This busyness continued until the 13th.

Fahrenheit’s second concert in Taiwan Province started on time.

Compared to the first game, the atmosphere of this game is indeed a bit weakened.

But overall, it was still a very successful concert.

The Taipei Arena was still packed, and after the concert ended, the concert received unanimous praise from fans.

Afterwards, Fahrenheit rushed to Hong Kong without stopping, and on the 19th, the show started in Hong Kong.

The number of people attending this concert in Hong Kong was slightly smaller.

The capacity of the Hung Hom Stadium is slightly smaller than that of the Taipei Arena.

However, in terms of atmosphere, Hong Kong fans have fully demonstrated what it means to be entertained to death.

There were tens of thousands of people, and their shouts and screams broke through the sky and could be clearly heard on the street outside the Hung Hom Stadium.

The guest performers for this concert in Hung Hom are Edison Chen and Twins.

After the concert, the twins left early.

Edison Chen invited Wu Zhuo and three others to have a meal.

"To be honest, I envy you guys. You've been on tour for two years since your debut, and you're already doing a concert tour. And it's not one of those hype concerts, but a real concert for tens of thousands of people."

When leaving, Edison Chen said to Wu Chao and others with envy.

In response to this, Jiro Wang and others kept comforting him.

Wu Zhuo said nothing.

If Edison Chen didn’t realize his last reminder, let alone the concert.

He basically has no chance in the entertainment industry anymore.

However, Wu Zhuo did not remind him again.

He has already reminded me.

If this is the case, and something happens to Edison Chen, then we can only say that it is fate.

There was nothing he could do.

He couldn’t just say, “Brother Edison, I know you took a lot of photos, please delete them quickly”…

After the concert in Hong Kong ended, Wu Chao and others flew directly to Japan.

Their plans for this round of tour are to go to Hong Kong and Taiwan first, then Japan, South Korea, the United States, Canada, Singapore, and finally the mainland.

Compared with several concerts in Hong Kong and Taiwan, the three concerts in Japan.

In terms of importance, it should be second only to the mainland.

There’s nothing we can do, there are too many people!

Currently, two concerts in Japan.

The venue chosen for the first game is Kyocera Dome in Osaka, which can accommodate more than 50,000 people, and the tickets have been sold out.

The second show was held at the Nagoya Dome, which also accommodates more than 50,000 people and sold more than 32,000 tickets.

For the two concerts, the number of tickets sold will be around 80,000.

This is the concert market.

Fahrenheit can't ignore it even if they want to.

Wu Chao has counted the 80,000 tickets himself. The tickets in Japan are expensive.

The average price for a front and back row ticket is about 1.8 yen.

14 tickets, with a total box office of approximately billion yen.

Converted into RMB, it is equivalent to 70 million.

The two concerts grossed 70 million, not including peripheral revenue.

With this ability to attract money, even robbing a bank is not as powerful as this.

With high income, naturally, Fahrenheit will pay attention to it.

Therefore, more than a week before the first concert in Japan, Wu Chao and others arrived in Japan in advance to familiarize themselves with the venue and get acquainted with various logistical personnel such as the sound engineer.

It is worth mentioning here.

According to the original plan, Fahrenheit was supposed to hold three concerts in Japan.

But because the venue was changed to a 50,000-seat large dome, the three concerts in Japan were reduced to two.

And facts have proved that this approach is correct.

It is impossible to increase the number of people who want to watch Fahrenheit's concert at this stage.

The two domes can accommodate 100,000 people.

This number is roughly the peak of Fahrenheit's popularity at this stage.

If they want to increase the number further, Fahrenheit will have to gain another batch of fans in Japan.

At this stage, Fahrenheit has no album released yet, which is unlikely.

Even Wu Chao’s personal album will have to wait until November.

By that time, the concert in Japan would have already ended.

We can't possibly change the concert time at the last minute and schedule it after Wu Chao's album release!
Therefore, using two venues that can accommodate 50,000 people is the most appropriate option at this stage.
