At this point, Girls' Generation officially put the debut plan on the table with a scale of eleven people.

The main target is WonderGirls, who just debuted recently.

The newcomer group under JYP made its public debut at the end of last year on the 10-episode real-record "MTV WonderGirls" program broadcast on MTV in South Korea.

As soon as it appeared, it attracted the attention of a considerable number of people, especially JYP's old opponents, who were all sideways.

YG Yang Hyun Seok is eager to win the bigbang and has no time to take care of the girl group, but the related girl group plans are also on the agenda, and he has also begun to prepare for the launch of the girl group in the next two years.

South Korea's song industry is like this, many brokerage companies are desperately competing for this market, you launch a girl group, I also launch a girl group, whether it is successful or not is not the key, the key is whether to do it or not.

In terms of DSP, the SS501 in their hands is now even more popular than the SS501 in the memory of otaku because of repeated collisions with Hee Sung, but they announced their girl group debut plan without showing weakness.

JYP's WonderGirls, a five-member group called KARA, will be available to the public at the end of March.

The media unanimously ridiculed the DSP's relentless pursuit, believing that the DSP was starting to make a fool of himself again.

However, Hee Sung knows that KARA is not as weak as they believe.

WonderGirls and KARA, as well as SeeYa and BrownEyedGirls, who debuted last year, plus Girls' Generation, which S&M is already preparing to debut, this year's entertainment industry is very lively because of girl groups.

It's just that although the major brokerage companies unanimously believe that the girl group has a future, they also have to admit that the downturn of the girl group has not been so lightly dispersed.

On February 13, 2007, WG's new song group and single "TheWonderBegins" were released on 5 online websites at the same time. Only tens of thousands of people tuned in.

On March 17, 2007, they held their first autograph session. There were very few attendees.

Fortunately, they won the contract of TBJ clothing spokesperson, and the various media who watched coldly were slightly restrained.

In fact, throughout the history of the Korean music scene, several girl groups that have appeared since 07 have been more troubled, but it is precisely because of this disaster and hardship that survival in adversity has caused the glory of the girl group era.

Beginning in March, Hee Sung's concert schedule officially began and rehearsals began.

S&M didn't prevaricate this time. It was very simple to mobilize his greatest strength, from preparation to publicity, and followed up without missing anything.

According to the plan, on March 9, that is, Hee-sung's birthday, he will hold a large-scale fan concert in Seoul for the first time.

As soon as the original single-concert plan was announced, it was accused by the media of being insincere.

Because the gymnastics arena in the Pongyidong Olympic Park is an indoor field, it can only accommodate less than 12,000 people.

Tickets for the arena officially opened for reservations on Valentine's Day on February 14, and Hee-sung's official website lasted a little more than four minutes before it completely collapsed. The 12,000 tickets were sold out in a matter of seconds.

Many fans were unable to buy tickets, and they left messages on various message boards such as Hee-sung's official website and fan site, saying that they were "very uncomfortable" and that "due to the large number of visitors, the tickets were sold out before they could log on to the website." Tears are coming out" Wait......

In fact, the ticket price of Hee-sung's concert is very expensive, although it is much cheaper than foreign concert tickets, but the price of a first-class seat is 200,000 won. The second-class price is 150,000 yuan, and the third-class seat is 100,000 yuan, which far exceeds the price of ordinary concerts.

General concerts. 150,000 for the first class, 99,000 for the second class, and 88,008 for the third class, which fluctuates roughly in this range.

S&M just wanted to use the ticket price to cool down the enthusiasm of the fans a little, and this first concert was mainly to test the waters.

It's a pity that their plan to use ticket prices to raise the threshold of concerts is completely bankrupt.

There are more than 100,000 fans, and at least 70,000 or 80,000 want to go to the concert to see Hee-sung.

He threw out 12,000 tickets, which was considered "insincere" by the media, and he was sent to Hanako.

All of a sudden, the website community related to Xicheng was full of protests.

S&M has repeatedly explained that the first concert is just an appetizer, and this world tour will be held at least three times in South Korea, and there will be opportunities in the future, but despite this, fans don't buy it at all, and many people even run to S&M's door to protest.

Xicheng's car was blocked several times, and those crazy fans who didn't get tickets were unwilling to get out of the way, so they had to give them an explanation.

There was really no way, so the preparatory team announced that the concert on March 9 would be held at the Jamsil Sports Complex.

Jamsil Sports Complex is located in Songpa-gu, Seoul, South Korea, and is also often referred to as the Seoul Olympic Stadium.

The Jamsil Sports Complex was inaugurated on 29 September 1984 and the first major sports event was held at the 1986 Asian Games. The stadium is also one of the venues for football matches such as World Cup qualifiers, with a capacity of nearly 100,000 spectators when it first opened, and 69,000 seats after renovation.

In this case, another 57,000 tickets can be sold.

In fact, holding a concert in Jamsil is not something that ordinary artists dare to do.

Because the normal number of tickets for the concerts of top singers, that is, twenty or thirty thousand, is saturated.

It's a shame to look at the empty space that is so big left.

But Xicheng's nearly 70,000 tickets were really sold out.

The first batch of 12,000 tickets was sold out in a few dozen seconds as early as February 14, the second batch of 30,000 tickets was also sold out in less than three minutes, and the third batch of 25,000 tickets began to be sold at the end of February, and there was not a single ticket left after ten minutes.

70,000 tickets, with an average price of 100,000 won, that's nearly 7 billion!

Hee Cheng is a person who often creates miracles, such achievements are only available to those singers in the early years, and in recent years, the sound source has hit the traditional market, and the scale of the concert has become smaller and smaller.

After all, you can listen to songs that can be heard on the Internet for a little money, so why pay more than ten times the price to go to a concert to listen.

What's more, there are too few opportunities to see the singer himself at the concert.

70,000 seats. There are absolutely no more than 8,000 people who can really see Xiben with their eyes, and they can see clearly, most of them are vague, and more people can only see through the large multi-purpose TV screen.

A concert ticket cost was sold for seven billion, and in any case, Xicheng earned it.

Last year, Rain held so many concerts, and he received three or four billion won in ticket money, and he had many performances, so the cost was naturally much more than that of Hee Sung. It would be good to have a profit of 17.8 billion, and then distribute it to the company, and he himself will earn even less.

The media used a slick tone to help Xicheng calculate the account, and it was generally believed that Xicheng and S&M had at least 5 billion in the account.

Just one concert can make so much money, if it is held a few more times, this kid will definitely be able to occupy a place in this year's artist income list.

However, S&M later announced that the 4.5 billion won from concert ticket sales would be used to set up a children's fund and an animal protection fund.

As for the authenticity of the fund. Naturally, there is a government structure that is between investigations, and it will not end up being used by officials to support beauty like a certain project.

Seven billion to remove about two billion concert costs, and then four and five billion. At most, there are only seven or eight hundred million left.

Now all the people who say that Xicheng makes money are dumb.

When other artists were doing shows or meeting reporters, they all had to praise Xicheng.

In fact, Hee Sung didn't make a penny for holding a concert this time.

Remove the cost and reimburse S&M for part of the labor cost. That's just 4.5 billion left.

He also knew that the reason why the tickets for this concert sold so well was mainly because this was the first time Hee Sung had held a concert. is also in South Korea, which is the place with the highest concentration of his fans.

In the future, if you go to Taipei or New York to hold a concert, it would be good if you could sell more than 10,000 tickets for each show.

Even if it was still in Seoul, the second game was definitely not as hot as the first.

This is completely a blowout of the popularity he has accumulated for two years.

"There's nothing else to do with you, this is the process of the concert, you see if there is a problem," Li Xiuman personally planned for Hee-sung's concert this time.

This is also the attitude he made in order to obtain amnesty.

At the very least, he is still willing to maintain a good relationship with Hee Sung, and after the amnesty in February, Lee Xiuman traveled to the United States for the first time this year to inspect the S&M. Entertainment (USA) branch and discuss cooperation with Warner Records.

During this time, he finally waited for Li Qingzhe's invitation to meet the investor at Li's Manor.

In fact, both of them can be regarded as legends, but they are in different industries, and there is a huge gap in the height they occupy.

In front of a pervert like Li Qingzhe, he can only be regarded as a petty fight.

After some talking, Li Xiuman also slowly found his position between the two grandchildren, that is, he resolutely did not stand in line and did his own thing.

deliberately looking for trouble with Xicheng may be able to satisfy Li Qingzhe for a while, but after all, people are grandchildren, and there will always be a day when they will drink and talk happily, and then he will not be a person inside and out.

It's not a way to always protect Xicheng, it ruins Li Qingzhe's plan to train his grandson, he estimates that he won't wait for Xicheng to grow up, and he will be overshadowed by this old guy.

"Teacher's eyes, do I still not believe it," Hee-sung leaned lazily on the sofa, holding a cup of black coffee in his hand, and didn't drink it, just smelled its mellow taste.

"Don't say that, I'm under a lot of pressure, I really have to discuss this matter with you," Li Xiuman didn't take care of it because Xicheng gave up power.

I can't fool this kid by deception, because he doesn't want to lose face, and he doesn't have a gentleman's style that is difficult to chase after a horse.

"Even if you say it, I believe it won't hurt me," Hee-sung put down his cup and sat upright, looking very serious.

Li Xiuman wanted to laugh when he saw it, but he still held back, "Look, I arranged these songs for you, all of them are male and female chorus......"

"One Minute and One Second", "Love Is So Simple"...... There's nothing wrong with that, I have fewer songs, so I guess I'll have to sing them all," Hee-sung nodded, not understanding what was so special about this arrangement.

collected 7 billion ticket money, if he held a half-hour concert, he would definitely be scolded to death.

"I'm going to have a few girls sing with you, what do you think?" Li Xiuman breathed a sigh of relief, and finally put forward his request, he didn't know what reason Hee Sung could find to convince him if he rejected his words.

"What do you mean...... "Hee Sung said suddenly, "you plan to take this opportunity to promote the new group?" ”

"That's basically what it means," Lee so-man nodded, "President Kim talked to me that he planned to shoot a set of debut documentary things, but he still didn't think it was enough, so he planned to have a few members appear on the concert stage as backing singers......"

"It's not that I disagree," Hee Sung rubbed his temples and tried to find the right language, "Teacher, I don't know how many fans I have, but at least there are 100,000 looks, I don't know how many crazy fans there are among 100,000 fans, but there are always three or five thousand......"

The real crazy fans are the kind of crazy people who are willing to die for idols, they regard their idols as private property, and they don't allow anyone to get involved, as long as anyone has an affair with their favorite idol, they are unconditionally anti.

"I understand what you mean," Li Xiuman obviously considered the question raised by Xicheng, and said without thinking: "But Xicheng, for this entertainment industry, whether it is liked or hated, it is not terrible, do you know what makes people desperate?" ”

"Please give me advice," Hee-sung thought for a moment and shook his head.

"Disregard," Li Xiuman sighed, "The most desperate thing is not hate, but indifference, do you know, Heavenly Zhixi is actually in this situation, they want to have good looks, they want to have strength, and there is no lack of topics, but no one pays attention to them, and if it goes on like this, it will be difficult for the company to give them any resources." ”

I see!

Li Xiuman's words were like a bolt of lightning, which suddenly woke him up.

is worthy of being a leader in this industry, and the perspective of looking at the problem is really different from ordinary people.

Ordinary people will always think that it is good to be liked by idols, and if you are hated, there is no value in zài, and you should be eliminated.

Unexpectedly, for the leaders of these brokerage companies, the artists who are not paid attention to should be outcasts.

"I understand," Hee Sung nodded, "In that case, then I don't have an opinion, which ones need to be arranged on stage, and during the concert rehearsal, it's better to exercise more with me." ”

"You can rest assured, letting them shine is just incidental," Lee so-man was very satisfied with Hee-sung's words, "It won't have any negative impact on the quality of the concert." ”

Hee-sung knew he had misunderstood, and he didn't explain anything, just shrugged.

"Kim Taeyeon, Jung so-yeon, as well as Kim Hyo-yeon and Lim Yoon-a," Lee so-man added a few strokes to the planning book, "The first two are for singing, and the latter is for dancing, and the others don't have enough stage experience, so let's leave it at it for the time being." ”

Taeyeon has worked with Sika and Hee Sung, and she is also proficient in songs, so there is nothing to be nervous about on stage; Hyo-yeon has stage experience dancing for Boa, and as for Yuna, she has filmed a lot of commercials and has several experience in shooting MVs, and these people have the strength to go on stage.

It's not that others don't have the qualifications to go on stage, after all, they lack experience, and if they arrange too many people, it is easy to distract the audience, so it is better to focus on promoting these four.

"I fully support your arrangement," Hee-sung was actually quite happy in his heart, he always wanted to do something for this soon-to-be-born group, but he was worried that his fans would overkill them.

Now that Li Xiuman said this, it suddenly became logical.
