Chapter 142: "If I Could Fly"
An important reason why the concert contractor agreed to Zhao Zhenghao's participation in this year's American Music Awards and did not hesitate to adjust the concert schedule for this year is to attract more fans to buy tickets to watch Zhao Zhenghao's concert.
Tickets for concerts in North America for the "Dangerous Journey" World Tour have already been sold, although the sales are good enough compared to other Dragon Country singers, and in several cities with a deep Dragon Country foundation, such as Los Angeles, San Francisco, Vancouver, Toronto and other cities, tickets have been sold out, but in other cities, there is still a big difference between the hot scenes in Dragon Country, East Asia and Southeast Asia.
It's even worse than the performance in European countries.
Of course, this is not to say that Zhao Zhenghao's popularity in North America is not as good as in other places, and Zhao Zhenghao's popularity here is still bursting for now.
It's just that the concert contractor arranged a lot of concerts for Zhao Zhenghao in North America, not counting Canada, there are more than ten stops and more than 20 concerts in the United States alone.
And, based on the current sales of tickets, there is not much of a problem with selling out before the concert starts.
However, such a situation will inevitably make Zhao Zhenghao and others in the "Zhenghao Studio" have some ideas about the ability of concert contractors in the United States, which may affect the next cooperation.
Judging from the number of performances that have been completed in Zhao Zhenghao's "Dangerous Journey" world tour, if Zhao Zhenghao has plans to make a second world tour, the results will not be inferior to this time!
And this time, due to Zhao Zhenghao's strength, he took 60% of the concert's box office revenue, and arranged peripheral sales, but in the case of such a hot box office, those concert contractors still made a lot of money, even more than hosting other singers and sharing concerts as high as 50% or even 60%!
In this case, the concert contractor who has already had this cooperation experience naturally hopes to leave a good impression on Zhao Zhenghao, and hopes that the process of this cooperation can be more pleasant, so as to ensure that when there is a chance to cooperate next time, it can seize some opportunities.
With Zhao Zhenghao's strength in the nomination stage, it is very likely that he will win multiple awards at this American Music Awards ceremony!
As one of the three major music awards ceremonies in the United States on the same level as the Grammy Awards, the American Music Awards are slightly inferior to the Grammy Awards in the eyes of Dragon Country fans, but in the United States, it is still very highly regarded, especially its award mechanism of direct voting by the audience, which can make American fans more involved.
Therefore, if Zhao Zhenghao can win many awards at this American Music Awards, his popularity in the United States will be further enhanced, thereby promoting concert ticket sales.
It's a win-win!
Zhao Zhenghao won the "Best Newcomer" trophy at the American Music Awards last year, which is not the first time that a Dragon Country singer has won the mainstream award of the American Music Awards, Liu Runze, the oldest of the six kings of the Dragon Kingdom, won the "Best Pop Male Singer" of the National Music Awards as early as four years ago, and An Shuyi also won the "Best Pop Female Singer" of the National Music Awards two years ago.
However, the Dragon Country singer has not yet become the biggest winner at the American Music Awards - that is, the person who has won the most awards in a single year.
Zhao Zhenghao is very likely to break this record this time.
On November 24, when Zhao Zhenghao's figure appeared on the red carpet of the 41st American Music Awards, he received three points of cheers higher than all the stars who walked the red carpet before, including those superstars in the United States.
Last night, the first concert of Zhao Zhenghao's "Dangerous Journey" world tour in Los Angeles was successfully held, and Zhao Zhenghao spent a perfect night with more than 100,000 fans at the Los Angeles Memorial Stadium, the largest in Los Angeles.
The second concert in Los Angeles will be held tomorrow, also at Los Angeles Memorial Stadium, and 100,000 tickets were sold out as early as a week ago.
The concert contractor believes that after tonight, those fans who grabbed tickets for Zhao Zhenghao's concert will be even more happy, and those fans who failed to grab Zhao Zhenghao's concert will also try their best to go to other places to snap up tickets for Zhao Zhenghao's concert, vowing to enter the infield and watch Zhao Zhenghao's performance.
At 8 o'clock local time, the 41st American Music Awards ceremony kicked off on time!
In order to attract more audiences, in front of the TV, watch the live broadcast of the award ceremony, the Organizing Committee of the American Music Awards deliberately arranged Zhao Zhenghao's performance at the beginning of the awards ceremony, and the host did not appear, Zhao Zhenghao appeared on the stage first.
After the stage curtain slowly rose, Zhao Zhenghao slowly walked to the front of the stage from the back of the stage under the illumination of a light, and stood in the center of the stage to meet the cheers of thousands of spectators.
Then, under the watchful eyes of thousands of viewers at the scene, as well as 30 million viewers in front of the TV, and hundreds of millions of global viewers who watched the live broadcast of the award ceremony at the same time through various live broadcast means, Zhao Zhenghao picked up the electric guitar placed in the center of the stage.
Zhao Zhenghao wants to show his guitar skills to all fans for the first time on the stage of the American Music Awards!
Zhao Zhenghao's predecessor could only play the piano and only a few simple chords for the guitar; in his previous life, Zhao Zhenghao knew nothing about the piano, but the value of the guitar technique was honed by him to 80, reaching the level of a master.
After crossing over, Zhao Zhenghao did not give up the improvement of guitar skills, and even consulted Wu Weicheng specifically for this, and before that, he had increased the guitar value to 85 points.
In order to prepare for this performance, Zhao Zhenghao used up another 10 free attribute values, and further increased the value of the guitar to 95 points, making his guitar performance the fifth ability to reach 95 points after singing, dancing, acting, and directing.
And, for this performance, Zhao Zhenghao specially took the classic masterpiece "If I Could Fly" by Joe Satriani, the guitar god in his previous life.
His guitar playing ability, which has reached 95 points, did not insult "If I Could Fly", and achieved the most perfect effect at the National Music Awards ceremony!
It's a pity that there is no guitar performance award at the American Music Awards, otherwise Zhao Zhenghao would definitely be able to win the award with this performance!
