Chapter 1290: Chapter 509: Seizing the Initiative Chapter 1290: Chapter 509: Seizing the Initiative Although Xia Fan’s fans were fanatical, the growth in their numbers relied on live concerts; those who did not attend the live concerts felt nothing for Xia Fan. Therefore, even though Xia Fan had erged as a perfect idol, due to the brevity of her exposure, not many people knew about her. At most, she was a singer celebrated in a small circle, not widely known to the world. For instance, Yan Fei wouldn’t have known about this peculiar star if Wu Jiechao hadn’t told him.
In order to expand her fanbase, Xia Fan’s concerts started shifting from dostic to international, embarking on a global tour. Along the way, through word-of-mouth and flawless reputation, she gained a vast number of loyal fans worldwide. These fans ca from all walks of life, making Xia Fan one of the stars with the most diverse fan professions. Moreover, at this rate of fan growth, it wouldn’t be long before Xia Fan beca the most influential figure in the Entertainnt Industry.
However, oddly enough, these fanatical fans were not irrational or prone to unbelievable acts. Their lives and studies were quite normal; they only beca fervent when it ca to Xia Fan.
According to the previous schedule, today was the day Xia Fan held a concert on Dream Island. Her fanatical fans had been following her relentlessly, simultaneously converting more people into her fans. Whenever Xia Fan held a concert anywhere, even if the venue was enormously large, it would still be packed.
Wu Jiechao was one of these fanatics. Since becoming a fan of Xia Fan in Europe, he was incessantly enchanted by her. He had initially planned to follow her concert tour, but he had to look after his family enterprise and deepen his relationship with Yan Fei, so he had to stay on Dream Island and wait for an opportunity. Unexpectedly, Xia Fan also ca to Dream Island, and Wu Jiechao, overwheld with joy, hurriedly bought two Super VIP tickets intending to take Yan Fei with him.
Wu Jiechao was confident in Xia Fan’s charm; he believed that once Yan Fei personally experienced Xia Fan’s concert, he would definitely beco a fanatic fan. By then, they would be the sa kind of people, have common topics, and naturally deepen their relationship. To achieve this goal, Wu Jiechao hastened to find Yan Fei.
Ignoring Wu Jiechao’s words beside him, Yan Fei carefully finished reading the “Dream” intelligence gathered about Xia Fan and felt as if he was reading a mythological story. The content here was very simple: it was all about the tis and venues of Xia Fan’s concerts and the fanatic praises of her on the internet. Besides these, there was no other information about Xia Fan, such as her age, height, weight, place of origin, experiences, etc.—as if Xia Fan’s fans had no interest in these details at all.
Such simple data, along with a dozen concerts, had managed to gain so many fanatic fans in such a short ti; it truly was like an entertainnt myth. It was known that so-called popular stars who have been in business for years might have over a hundred million fans, but the number of their real fans might not even exceed a million.
Yan Fei imdiately beca interested in this Xia Fan, but not in a romantic sense; he sensed sothing fishy about her. He started suspecting that Xia Fan had so special ability and that she used this ability to hypnotize the audience during her concerts, turning them into her fanatical fans and manipulating these fans for her unspeakable purposes.
The world was full of scamrs, and Yan Fei wouldn’t pay attention to each one. If Xia Fan hadn’t co to Dream Island for a concert, Yan Fei naturally wouldn’t have paid her any mind. However, she had chosen to conduct a concert on Dream Island and seed to intend to bewitch the people there; thus, Yan Fei felt compelled to et this Xia Fan. He trusted his own strength and believed he could uncover Xia Fan’s tricks at the event, revealing her gas and preventing her from inciting her fans to do radical things.
Yan Fei said, “Alright, I understand. I will attend Xia Fan’s concert. When does it start?”
Seeing Yan Fei agreeing to watch Xia Fan’s concert, Wu Jiechao was overjoyed, knowing his plan had already succeeded halfway. He placed an exquisitely printed ticket on Yan Fei’s desk and said, “Here’s the concert ticket. It’s tonight at exactly eight o’clock at the Dream Stadium.”
Yan Fei took the beautifully crafted ticket and saw the price listed as 888888 Chinese Coin. He was a bit shocked; although it was a Super VIP ticket, offering the best seats and a close view of the perforrs on stage, the price was outrageously high—one ticket costing 888,888 Chinese Coin. It was an amount most ordinary people wouldn’t save in a lifeti, yet this was just the price for a Super VIP seat at a star’s live concert.
Seeing the high price on the ticket, Yan Fei scoffed even more at Xia Fan. Although he had heard of stars exploiting their fans, he didn’t expect it to be this severe. With Super VIP tickets nearly a million, it was believed that even the regular seats would not be less than a thousand.
Dream Stadium had a total of 120,000 seats. If all these seats were sold as regular ones, then the revenue from one concert would reach a horrifying 120 million Chinese Coin. Averaging four live concerts a month, Xia Fan’s inco would amount to 480 million. If she didn’t rest for a year, the total inco could reach a frightening 6 billion. Including the surplus charges for VIP and other middle-class tickets, Xia Fan’s earnings would be astronomical, even more than so industrial enterprises made.
