On the several quotations that Lin Zhicheng turned out, the one at the forefront was either the popular little fresh meat, or the so-called topic queen.

The value of participating in a commercial performance is at least more than two million yuan, and the one with the highest asking price even reached about three million. Converted to U.S. dollars, that's $400,000 to $500,000.

In China, compared with other domestic artists, this high price may still find some reasonable explanations, such as its own traffic, which is easy to cause topicality and the like.

But if these people are brought forward and compared horizontally with those artists and stars in the world, hehe, anyway, Lin Zhicheng thinks they are not worth the price in his heart.

Let's talk about those little fresh meats first. As we all know, they all debuted in South Korea first, gained popularity with the convenience of the group, and then left the group and returned to China to develop independently. If you simply compare their personal abilities, they should be on the same level as their former teammates, and even if they exceed in a certain field, they must be limited.

So, what kind of value should such a level of ability correspond to?

Taking Girls' Generation as the benchmark, it is not difficult to speculate - Girls' Generation is the first girl group in South Korea, and the team that Xiao Xianrou was originally in is even the first boy group in South Korea, so there should not be too much difference between the commercial performance quotations of the two. Taking a step back, on the premise that 'boy groups are more popular and easier to sell tickets', doubling their appearance fees is only less than $100,000.

After that, the number was divided evenly according to the number of heads, and it was divided among each person's heads, which was about $10,000. If you change it to a soft sister coin, it will be about 100,000 yuan.

With the 100,000 yuan as the bottom line, plus 'you are our compatriot, so give you a little more care', 'you have been systematically trained, and young idols in China are relatively lacking in this regard' and other reasons as bonuses, and the value of Xiao Xianrou should not exceed 500,000.

And now, the quotations posted on the Internet are at least more than 2 million.

Therefore, it can be said unceremoniously that their current value is full of bubbles, and this inflated price has even exceeded the actual value by several times.

What makes Lin Zhicheng feel worthless more than the little fresh meat is the queen of those topics.

You know, this is a quotation for a 'commercial performance', and it is not an endorsement fee.

Even if they are separated from the original team, they still have the ability to sing and dance, and they can perform a show on stage.

And what about the so-called topic queens? Do they have the ability? Obviously, no.

Since you can't sing and dance, can it still be regarded as a 'commercial performance'? Just because you sit on the stage and chat with the host, even if it is a performance? Hehe, what are you kidding, you can make money just by talking, that's a cross talk actor, you are a person who becomes popular by hype, and you are qualified to take this money?

Maybe you can attract the attention of many people with your popularity and let more people pay attention to this performance, but in fact, in terms of the ability to perform, the topic queens are not worthy of their worth at all.

Horizontal comparison, the result is the same - Taylor Swift is worth a million dollars, and you are a topic queen, and you are worth half of them? Not to mention the ability to perform on stage, can you say that your popularity in the world, and the amount of attention you have attracted after participating in the performance, can you be worth half of others?

These people can have their current worth, in the final analysis, they are all used to domestic fans. They are making money beautifully, but the fans who support them have left a negative impression in the hearts of many foreign artists that 'people are stupid and have a lot of money'.

In the past, before he became the owner of the island, Lin Zhicheng was just an ordinary person who kept his sanity, as early as that time, he was very unaccustomed to this phenomenon, and now, after becoming the owner of the island, he looked down on these stars who did not have much ability but were ridiculously valuable.

"Instead of spending that money, I might as well find Dong Chou, who is also the leader of the Chinese song industry. No matter how bad it is, the legend of the phoenix, the chopsticks brothers can do it. Lin Zhicheng muttered while ignoring the existence of Xiao Xianrou and the Queen of Topics, and searched for offers from other artists again.

Because the quotations of domestic artists are sorted according to the initial letter of their names, it took a while for Lin Zhicheng to see the name of Dong Chou at the end of the quotation.

"Also two million?" On this survey and statistical table, Dong Chou's business performance value is estimated to be about two million. Seeing this number, Lin Zhicheng was unconsciously stunned for a moment: "It's the same as those little fresh meat?"

Coming back to his senses, Lin Zhicheng couldn't help but feel a little emotional. On the one hand, I once again felt the flashiness of Xiao Xianrou, and on the other hand, I felt a little depressed and disappointed - this value reflects a reality, that is, the top artists in China still can't catch up with those big stars in Europe and the United States, both in popularity and influence, there is a big gap.

However, for Lin Zhicheng, the price of two million soft girl coins equivalent to less than 400,000 US dollars still has some benefits, at least, he will not feel too much pressure when he pays for it.

The selection is almost done, Lin Zhicheng sorted out the previous list again, and according to the different regions, the European and American stars and the artists of China, Japan and South Korea were recorded in a small book.

"Catherine~, are you at home?" After taking a sip of the rest of the coffee, he stood up, stretching his waist, and Lin Zhicheng greeted Catherine again.

"What's the matter?" More than ten seconds later, Catherine pushed the door and walked into the study, appearing in front of Lin Zhicheng again.

"Didn't you say you were going to hold a celebration before? I thought about inviting some celebrities to come over and have fun, come, here's my list, you can take a look at it, give me suggestions. Handing the small notebook to Catherine, Lin Zhicheng said with a smile.

Because Lin Zhicheng had already written the corresponding value after the name of each artist, Catherine quickly estimated the total price needed to invite these people. Calculating in her heart, Catherine's face showed a hesitant expression: "Charlie, I don't have any suggestions for candidates, but will it be too expensive to invite so many people at one time?"

"Well, it's a bit bigger. But isn't this the first year? I mean, this is my first New Year after taking over as the owner of the island, and according to the old tradition, the new leader must always give some benefits to the big guys, otherwise, how can I win people's hearts?" Lin Zhicheng explained.

"So, what's the budget?" Catherine nodded, and asked the next question.

"The initial plan is $20 million, and if it's not enough, we can add more. Let's put it this way, I've already thought about it, and I'm going to take out all the part of this year's tax revenue that belongs to me and put it into this event. ”

As Lin Zhicheng's housekeeper, Catherine knows his income better than herself. Hearing him say this, and after a little more estimate, Catherine continued: "There is no problem with the funds. ”

"Hehe, that's it, let's start preparing, shall we?"

"Are you sure?" Catherine hesitated slightly, but finally couldn't help but say more, "As your butler, I will meticulously complete your every instruction. However, as a friend, I still want to advise you, Charlie, are you thinking about it again? More or less, you should also save some for yourself. ”

"It's okay, isn't there still you?" Lin Zhicheng patted Catherine on the shoulder and squeezed his eyes at her: "I didn't say that I must invest all that income, and spend all the money that is not left, right? If I can cut the price a little when I invite artists, and if I can save a little when I build the stage, won't I be able to keep some in my hand? Catherine, I will leave the matter of contacting European and American artists to you, if you cut a little more when you negotiate, I will have more money left in my wallet, hehe, look at you." ”

"I'm here to contact?" I really didn't think that Lin Zhicheng would give this task to herself, Catherine was a little surprised.

"That's right. Lin Zhicheng nodded: "There are only two months left until the Lunar New Year, if we don't hurry up, it is very likely that we will not be able to catch up." For the sake of insurance, I think it's better for us to act separately to compare prices, oh, the European and American artists recorded in this book, as well as the artists on the RB side, are your responsibility. As for the groups of people in South Korea and China, I'll be in touch with them. How?"

Running back and forth between the United States and RB is somewhat tiring, but as a professional butler, Catherine will not refuse the assignment of the master because of this fatigue.

"Okay, RB and the United States, leave it to me. At this point, Catherine asked, "What about the stage preparations?"

"Ugh. "Indeed, stage preparation is also a big thing, and it is necessary to send a reassuring person to keep an eye on it. Hearing Catherine's words, Lin Zhicheng unconsciously hesitated.

Fortunately, after a few seconds, he thought of another candidate: "It's okay, isn't there still John, just let him help keep an eye on it." I'll say hi to the Propaganda Department, emmm, and Sam, that guy has the strength and a lot of friends, you can call in to help, by the way, and your classmate, Claire, who I met at the party at Harden's house last time, might as well find it and let her follow along. In short, don't worry, as long as John is in charge of monitoring, he will definitely not be tired. ”

"Since you've thought about it so well, what else can I say?" Because of Lin Zhicheng's thoughtfulness towards Old John, Catherine was a little moved: "Promise to complete the task." I mean, I'll do my best to try to do a nice job and save you a little bit more money. ”
