Chapter 3359: Feng Shui Supervisor

The launch of Changying Automobile received absolute recognition from fans and all sectors of society.

The fully open and transparent lottery strategy demonstrated Changying Automobile's corporate responsibility, earning it significant attention and praise, with brand awareness rapidly increasing.

Next, the performance entered the rapid preparation phase.

First, the venue: Jin Ling's largest Olympic Sports Center was selected as the venue for the four concerts in Jin Ling; the Olympic Sports Center had just completed its expansion last year and can accommodate forty thousand spectators on site.

After the venue was confirmed, Tawana's performance in Japan had just ended, and her team began to gradually pack up the equipment and air freight it to Jin Ling for assembly and construction.

Tawana originally wanted to leave Japan for Jin Ling immediately after the performance, but her boyfriend Trevor had previously arranged a business cooperation with the Japanese Baseball League, so she could only delay by one day.

On the day before Tawana departed for Jin Ling, Changying Automobile's ticket application process conducted the first public lottery for tickets.

Under the full-process notarization by the Jin Ling Notary Office, forty thousand tickets were distributed among applicants.

The vast majority of winning fans chose to immediately pay the balance and lock in their tickets; a very small number of overseas spectators might have backed out temporarily, and after failing to pay on time, the tickets were once again subjected to a lottery for waitlist candidates.

To avoid having certain individuals unable to attend due to personal reasons, the waitlist rules differed from the initial application: all users initiating an application would receive a mutual assistance agreement, and if they wished to participate in the waitlist, they would need to prepay the full ticket price in advance; once waitlist success occurred, the ticket would be automatically finalized, giving them no further chance to regret.

Thus, within an hour, the remaining tickets were all successfully waitlisted.

Xiao Churan also participated in the ticket lottery, but due to the millions of participants, she was not selected.

Seeing the lottery end without her, she disappointedly said to Ye Chen: "This time I didn't win; I don't know if I'll succeed in the next three rounds."

Ye Chen smiled and said: "With such a large base, the chance of being selected is actually very slim."

Xiao Churan nodded, sighing: "Actually, even if I won, it wouldn't mean much, because the probability of both of us being selected is nearly zero; if only one of us won, we'd just have to go alone to the concert."

Saying this, she couldn't help but complain: "I think the organizer's strategy is good in every way, except for not letting everyone buy tickets together, which is a bit awkward; why can't we just merge into one entity for application? If successful, we'd go together; if not, we'd just forget it."

Ye Chen smiled: "Tens of millions across the country want to see her concert and are willing to spend real money to support her; facing this scale, couple tickets or group tickets have little influence; individual application and individual lottery maximize fairness, and sacrificing some group audience interests is normal."

"That's true," Xiao Churan shrugged: "It seems the chance for us to see Tawana's concert in Jin Ling this time is not high."

Ye Chen smiled: "Indeed, there's no backdoor to exploit this time, but if you really want to see it, we could try watching from backstage, which wouldn't violate anyone's ticket sale rules."

"Backstage?" Xiao Churan asked: "Can we go backstage to watch?"

"Of course," Ye Chen said confidently: "Last time I helped Mr. Mitsui with feng shui, he still spoke well of me; Tawana is somewhat skeptical, but I feel she might also want me to help her take a look; I have Mr. Mitsui's contact information, so I can ask him to help connect me with Tawana; when she holds her concert, I'll have her arrange a spot for us in the backstage areas on both sides of the stage to watch."

Xiao Churan shook her head: "Forget it, husband; that would just cause trouble for others, and since we've already seen it, not seeing it is fine too."

Ye Chen smiled: "Actually, it wouldn't really cause trouble; after all, we are the hosts, they're coming here to stay for several days, and we might also be able to offer them some help."

Speaking, Ye Chen added: "Do you know Master Master Hong Wu's Tianxiang Fu? It's the best restaurant in Jin Ling; you said Tawana is coming to Jin Ling and will stay for several days, so she'll definitely want to try our local specialties; then I can help her book the diamond private room at Tianxiang Fu; also, with so many people from Tawana's team coming to Jin Ling, I can also ask Chen Zong of Buckingham Palace to provide them with some conveniences; as repayment, she invites us to backstage to watch the concert—what's the problem?"

Xiao Churan said seriously: "Whether we watch the concert or not doesn't matter, but if we can help them, it's still good; after all, they've come from afar, and if we have the chance, we should also do our best as hosts."

Ye Chen deeply understood the principle that fat water doesn't flow to outsiders' fields; this time Tawana came to Jin Ling to hold a concert, and she had already communicated with the other party in advance: Tawana herself, as well as all her team members, will stay at Buckingham Palace Hotel.

Since they will at least stay in Jin Ling for seven to nine days, this period will definitely become a key focus of domestic media attention, and the hotel they stay at will certainly have extremely high news exposure—this is free, massive traffic, naturally not to be given away to others.

As for Tianxiang Fu, Ye Chen also plans to leverage Tawana's influence to bring some traffic to Master Master Hong Wu; if Tawana can make his Tianxiang Fu popular this time, he can consider opening branches nationwide.

The catering industry, if kept small, doesn't have much imaginative space, but if scaled up, a market value of several hundred billion is not impossible; who knows, Tianxiang Fu might also have the chance to become a well-known high-end Chinese restaurant chain.

Thus, Ye Chen quietly sent Tawana a WeChat message: "Are you interested in trying some local cuisine after arriving in Jin Ling? If so, I can help you arrange it; the restaurant is opened by a friend of mine, and it's also a good opportunity to leverage your traffic to promote it for him."

Tawana immediately replied: "If Mr. Ye invites me to eat, I can go right after getting off the plane! Moreover, if you want me to help promote the restaurant, I can also immediately post a social media update."

Ye Chen said: "Then of course it's me treating you to eat; you don't need to pay, I'll arrange it."

Tawana said: "If Mr. Ye is just paying, that definitely won't work; he must be present in person."

Ye Chen asked her: "Are the conditions really that strict?"

Tawana laughed: "I don't think it's that strict! Mr. Ye helped me so much in Tokyo; given Mr. Ye's character, when I arrive at your doorstep, wouldn't you come out to treat me to a meal?"

Ye Chen smacked his lips, thinking: "This guy really knows how to play."

After thinking, he said: "Treating you to a meal is no problem, but my wife also needs to be present; at that time, you need to cooperate with me—just say you'd like me to help you check the feng shui of the performance, or you could simply ask me to be your feng shui supervisor for this China tour."

Tawana immediately agreed: "No problem! Deal, Director Ye!"
