Chapter 349: Crazy Gold Sucking
Eden will compete, compete in the highest weight class, and be 100% confident that he will win the $2 million prize.
Such a news immediately spread on the Internet, which also made the attention of this game even higher.
In just one day, tickets for the tournament were sold out.
The course is three days, and you need to buy separate tickets for the morning and afternoon games, so if you want to watch all the games, you need to buy six tickets.
Every ticket can see at least one game of Eden, and some fanatical fans directly bought all six tickets.
And the ticket price of each ticket is also quite expensive, and the tickets for its own fighting events are quite high.
The cheapest single ticket costs 288 yuan a piece, and the best seat in the front row costs 1888 yuan a piece.
It's just that the number of spectators that can be accommodated in a single game is limited, after all, there are only 2,000 seats in total.
When the Provincial Wrestling Association got the statistics of ticket revenue, they were directly dumbfounded.
This China-South Korea wrestling match sold a total of 5.12 million ticket revenues......
The Provincial Wrestling Association can pat its chest and swear to the sky that their Wrestling Association has been established for so many years, and the ticket revenue of all the tournaments it has held is not as good as one-third of this competition.
Such a competition directly made the Provincial Wrestling Association jealous.
But they also know very well that the ticket revenue of this game is so terrible, and it is entirely because of Eden.
If it weren't for Eden's participation and the million-dollar jackpot, how could there be such a high ticket revenue.
This ticket revenue alone made the Provincial Wrestling Association's eyes and hearts beat, and if they knew about the sponsorship income of this event, they would probably vomit blood.
The first to contact Eden was naturally Eden's old club Adi, who must have known that the organizer of the event was Eden and gave a $1 million sponsorship.
Adi's sponsorship is mainly for the clothing and shoes of the contestants during the competition.
Originally, they were willing to pay $2 million to buy the naming rights of this event, that is, the Adidas China-South Korea Wrestling Match, but Yi Dun did not agree, so after discussing with Xia Jiuli, it was changed to $1 million.
In addition, the advertising boards around the ring have also attracted the favor of many manufacturers, and according to the location, an advertising position is also sold at a price of hundreds of thousands or even millions of yuan.
This sponsorship alone has earned about $2 million for Eden.
If this is converted to RMB, it is at least three times the ticket revenue!
In addition to this, there is also broadcast income, which is also the bulk of the income.
CCTV first sent someone to discuss with Yi Dun to broadcast this Sino-Korean wrestling match on CCTV Sports Channel.
This made Yi Dun feel a little flattered, generally speaking, this level of competition is actually unable to enter the eyes of CCTV.
However, it may be because Yi Dun has contributed to the country, or it may be that the attention of this game is too high, which has caused a strong social repercussion, so CCTV has the idea of broadcasting the game live.
And the most surprising thing for Yi Dun was that CCTV actually gave money......
Although it is very small, only 100,000 yuan of live broadcast authorization fees, which is almost negligible, you must know that CCTV does not need to spend money to broadcast Lao Mei NBA, and it is really surprising that you will pay back the money for broadcasting your own small game.
CCTV naturally has a special significance in China, not to mention that CCTV gives money, it is to post money on CCTV, and it is estimated that a large number of people are waiting in line.
In addition to CCTV, Qilu TV, as a provincial TV station, also approached Yidun to discuss the live broadcast of the game.
CCTV doesn't need to spend money to broadcast the game live, and Qilu TV doesn't have this face, but Yi Dun doesn't have a lion to open his mouth here, just let Qilu TV give 500,000 meanings.
Qilu TV bought the right to broadcast live, it was naturally to make money, and now this event is so popular, if it can be broadcast on their TV station, some advertisements will be inserted in the middle, which can have a lot of income.
These traditional TV stations are certainly not the bulk of live broadcast revenue, and the real majority is on the online platform.
Several platforms with live streaming of sports events have contacted Yi Dunfang, and finally one took out 20 million yuan to buy the live broadcast rights of the game and the rights to develop the subsequent commercial value.
Yi Dun will definitely not come forward for these things, Xia Jiuli took Wang Yaping and the two to talk to others, so it is not wrong to give these two people equity.
With 5 million tickets, 20 million live broadcasts, and 15 million sponsorships, this three-day event directly earned 40 million gross income for EDUN!
To be precise, it earned 40 million gross income for Yiyang Sports Development Co., Ltd.
And when it comes to expenditure, it is really not worth mentioning compared to this gross income.
The cost of renting the venue, a total of a week, only cost less than 50,000 yuan, plus some other miscellaneous expenses, a total of less than 200,000 yuan.
The bonus expenditure must be a large amount, not counting the two projects that Yi Dun participated in, a total of more than 2 million yuan in bonus expenditure.
Together, it is about 2.5 million, compared to the gross income of 40 million, which is definitely a million profits.
Even counting the two projects with frightening bonuses, the total expenditure is only 18 million, and there is a net income of more than 20 million.
As for the two projects of Yi Dun, the prize money will definitely not be taken away, it can only be in Yi Dun's pocket, so there is no point in considering these two projects.
earned 37.5 million yuan in a few days, and even a big gold-absorbing person like Yi Dun was dumbfounded.
He never expected that he would be able to make so much money by hosting the competition!
It seems that Li Zhigang's previous brawl about making a lot of money in martial arts projects is really not a joke.
However, Yi Dun also knows very well that such a competition he is engaged in must have special characteristics, and if anyone else were to hold this event, I am afraid that he would not have the ability to attract gold on this scale.
"Yi Dun, we will be developed in the future, good guy, you have earned 40 million in the past three days?! How I feel like I'm dreaming! ”
"That's a lot of money, isn't it?" When Xia Jiuli saw Yi Dun, he exclaimed directly.
Now Xia Jiuli has also seen a lot of the world with Yi Dun, but even so, he was frightened by the ability to attract gold in this competition.
"Xiao Wang, we have 5 points of equity, you can do the math, how much dividends we can get."
"Brother Xia, we can take more than 1.8 million ......" Wang Yaping was sluggish, and this number gave him a great impact.
"Eden, can we really get so much money?" Wang Yaping couldn't believe it and asked Yi Dun.
Yi Dun smiled and nodded, "That's right, you've worked hard during this time. ”
"When the game is over, let Tong Yangling give you the money."
Wang Yaping couldn't hide the smile on his face, such a huge amount of money, for him, it was completely pie in the sky.
……
"Doot toot!" Eden's phone rang.
"Hey, Director Jiao."
"Yi Dun, just now we received a call from the Japan Wrestling Association from the Wrestling Management Center, and they asked if it was possible to participate in this wrestling tournament as well." Director Jiao asked directly on the phone.
Yi Dun frowned, what is this little Japan making a lot of fun now, is it also the one million dollar jackpot?
Don't they want to think about the reason why China dares to offer such a high bonus?
Eden still underestimated the allure of the million-dollar general for a wrestler, especially since some wrestlers are classical free two-size-fits-all, and if they can win both of them, it will be a $2 million income.
Even in a country where people are rich per capita, the $2 million is definitely not a small amount, and if you don't die by yourself, you can live comfortably with food and clothing for a lifetime.
With such a high prize money, it is no wonder that Japanese wrestlers are jealous and want to get a piece of the pie.
It may seem to the Japanese wrestlers that if they can compete, the $2 million prize money will definitely be in their pockets, because most of the classes, whether Korean or Chinese, are not as good as Japanese wrestlers.
The current relationship between China, Japan and South Korea is quite delicate, and each of them wants to take advantage of the other.
If you win this thing that has attracted a lot of attention in the circle, you will not only be able to make a windfall, but also show a big face in China.
Yi Dun pondered for a moment, "Let the Japanese wait, and talk about it next time." ”
"This time it's a China-South Korea wrestling match, what is the matter with them coming from Japan to compete, they are considered Chinese or Korean."
"At the end of the year or next year, I may hold a China-Japan-South Korea wrestling match, or simply hold a larger range of matches, and then let them come."
"Let them rest assured that the prize money will definitely not be worse than this time."
"I want to be beaten on the pole, am I not satisfied with them?" Yi Dun laughed on the phone.
Director Jiao also laughed, if others said this, he might feel arrogant, people came to participate in the competition, how could they be beaten on the pole.
But Yi Dun said this, the other party wanted to participate so much, it was really like getting on the pole and wanting to be beaten.
"Okay, then I'll have someone reply to them and tell them to wait."
"Yi Dun, I heard that you have made a lot of money this time? It has to be tens of millions, right? ”
"Thanks to you, I did make some money." Yi Dun didn't hide it, and he couldn't hide this kind of thing......
"Okay, it's good to make money, I'm afraid that you will put money in it, so don't worry about it now."
"How about it, do you feel the charm of wrestling, not to mention anything else, our ability to absorb gold is not comparable to them." Director Jiao laughed.
Yi Dun couldn't cry or laugh, and didn't know how to answer Director Jiao's words.
Director Jiao is not wrong, if this China-South Korea competition is replaced by a weightlifting event, it is safe to say that he will never make so much money.
Although wrestling is not very popular now, it is also a serious martial arts sport.
Weightlifting and martial arts, this ornamentation is not on the same level at all.
