The entertainment empire began with Liu Yifei's premarital pregnancy.
Chapter 230 Wan Qian's Invitation
Meanwhile, Chen Chusheng, Zhang Liangying, and Zhang Jie were not left behind.
With her hit song "Sun Never Sets," Jane Zhang achieved nearly a million album sales, instantly becoming a top-tier singer in the industry. Her only weakness is her dancing skills.
Lin Bufan heard from the record company that Zhang Liangying has been focusing on learning dance recently.
Zhang Jie's "Boundless Oceans, Vast Skies" also achieved very good results. This song is not the one by Beyond, but the one by Shin Band. It is a high-pitched song that is very suitable for Zhang Jie's voice.
Chen Chusheng's "What We Agreed On" also performed as well as the other artists.
Overall, apart from Yang Yuying, the others are considered top-tier second-tier singers in the music industry. They might not be good at holding their own concerts, but...
Thinking of this, Lin Bufan suddenly remembered a plan that Zhao Xueyong had once mentioned to him.
Although Yang Yuying has become popular again, she cannot support a concert by herself. Even if she holds a solo concert, the audience will be at most a few thousand people, and may not even reach ten thousand.
How can a singer best showcase their talent?
Besides record sales, the most important factor is the scale of the concert.
Of course, besides showcasing a singer's talent and appeal, the most important thing about a concert is that it's profitable.
Just two years ago, in 2004, Andy Lau held a concert at the Chongqing Olympic Sports Center, which was said to have 80,000 people inside and 50,000 people outside. The scale of the concert is still legendary in the music industry.
It's only 2006 now. Concert tickets are nothing like they used to cost hundreds of yuan each. Now, some concert tickets cost as little as 80 yuan each, but the highest-priced tickets in the front row can cost nearly 2,000 yuan each.
Generally speaking, a concert with 10,000 attendees would generate between 3 and 5 million yuan in ticket revenue alone. After deducting various expenses, including the artists' salaries, the organizer's profit would be around 50%.
While a single concert may not seem to generate much revenue, the potential for multiple concerts in a row is undeniable.
If you can earn millions per concert, and hold ten concerts a year, wouldn't you earn tens of millions?
Currently, none of the singers at Kyoto Records can afford to hold a concert, so Zhao Xueyong came up with a solution: could a concert be held under the name of "Kyoto Records"?
All the singers under Kyoto Records participated, using the number of singers to attract audiences to buy tickets.
If one singer isn't enough, even if I have two, three, or even four or five, I still can't sell tens of thousands of tickets?
Let's take a concert that sells 10,000 tickets as an example, and calculate based on an average price of 300 yuan. After all, there are cheap tickets and there are expensive ones, so we'll take an average price in the middle.
A single concert generates three million in revenue. After deducting venue costs, equipment wear and tear, and compensation for the participating singers, the company can make a profit of approximately 150 million.
If a singer holds just 10 concerts a year, they can make 1500 million yuan in profit, and as their popularity grows, they will sell more and more tickets.
To be honest, this model doesn't even exist in later generations.
Generally, well-known singers hold their own solo concerts; only music festivals attract a large number of singers to participate.
"That's something we could give a try..."
Lin Bufan made a decision in his heart. If possible, this would be a huge advantage for Kyoto Records, especially if the company were to go public in the future, it could have a significant impact on the company's market value.
……
As the time drew closer to 8 o'clock, the Shanghai Stadium was almost full, with all 80,000 tickets sold out.
This shows just how popular "The Voice of China" has been these past few months. Many top-tier singers might not be able to sell 50,000 tickets for their concerts, but one championship night alone sold that many tickets.
Yuan Yawei will win.
Musical prodigy Kim Ji-moon
Zhang Wei sweeps the field
"Shock the East, Shock the East"
Among the 80,000 seats, many were fans of the four contestants, and they displayed fan support signs.
Of course, it's inevitable that some of the contestants were Kyoto Records staff members posing as fans. After all, all four contestants were signed to Kyoto Records, so no matter who won, it wouldn't be a loss for Kyoto.
Furthermore, the higher their popularity goes, the better.
Good evening, everyone!
As the clock struck eight, Liu Yan and Xie Nan appeared on the stage from the lift, marking the start of the live broadcast of the championship night.
These two are the hosts of "The Voice of China," so naturally they would be indispensable for this championship night.
"Tonight..."
On stage, Liu Yan held a microphone, facing 80,000 audience members, and spoke eloquently with a smile.
"Liu Yan has a really great figure..."
In the first row below the stage, Wan Qian looked at Liu Yan on stage with genuine envy. After speaking, she nudged Lin Bufan's arm and asked, "What do you think?"
"I haven't even tried it, what are you saying!"
Lin Bufan looked at Wan Qian speechlessly.
"Hmph, who knows how much they secretly want to try it!"
Wan Qian gave a light snort, then looked at Liu Yifei on Lin Bufan's other side and said, "Qianqian, don't you think so?"
"Of course, someone said that's his favorite kind!"
Liu Yifei glanced at Lin Bufan and then made a sarcastic remark.
"I……"
Lin Bufan was speechless. It was mainly his own fault; he had once made comments about Liu Yifei's figure during a role-playing game…
Especially Wan Qian, with her small frame, her figure is not even as good as Liu Yifei's, let alone Liu Yan's.
Now that everything has been found, he can only helplessly endure it.
"By the way, Fei-jie said she's going to play a few rounds of mahjong after dinner, are you guys going?"
Lin Bufan could only change the subject and bring up the princess to take the blame.
"I'm not going!"
Liu Yifei immediately shook her head: "I need to go back and get some beauty sleep!"
Since filming "Painted Skin", Liu Yifei has returned to a Buddhist lifestyle. Every day, besides taking care of her children, she focuses on beauty treatments, fitness, and reading. She mainly sleeps by waking up naturally.
Even after becoming a mother, she still couldn't break this habit.
When filming, she could manage to sleep only five or six hours a day, but after filming, she slept at least 10 hours a day.
"I'm not going either!"
Wan Qian shook her head. She wasn't familiar with the princess, and it would be quite boring there anyway. After saying that, she turned to Liu Yifei and extended an invitation: "Qianqian, let's go to Tomson Riviera tonight!"
"Great! I've never been there before!"
Liu Yifei nodded and did not refuse.
Of course, they wouldn't forget Jessica Alba, and naturally they would bring her along.
