Chapter 749: Number One in Asia, Number Three in the World

"Have you ever tried to snatch original-price Moutai online?"

If the Penguin Music employees responsible for the ticketing of this Luo Mo concert had ever lived on Earth, this thought would surely have popped into their minds.

Sold out the moment it went live—it's just that terrifying!

The vast majority of people trying to snatch tickets found themselves unable to complete the payment when they reached the payment interface.

Some people couldn't help but feel incomparably frustrated.

"I should have set up fingerprint payment!"

"Speechless, how come my fingerprint payment isn't as fast as theirs?"

"Just how many people are snatching these!"

"No way, I have to go ask my boyfriend, my best friend, my mom, my aunt... if they managed to snatch one for me!"

Today, as long as you can snatch a ticket to Luo Mo's first solo concert, once you post it to your Moments, you can attract countless envious comments.

Of course, if you are a guy, your group of "dads" will surely highly praise your hand speed in the comment section.

"Not bad, son, all those years of 'guiding' didn't go to waste!"

"Sure enough, when God closes a door, He opens a window; being single wasn't for nothing."

"I would like to name you the grandmaster of the 【Eagle Finger】!"

There is no secret to successfully snatching a ticket.

—Nothing else, just pure familiarity.

Of course, if any guy can take a girl to see a Luo Mo solo concert, the probability of successfully wooing her is Afraid to skyrocket.

It's best if it's the kind where she travels from another city to Beijing to watch it, and it's inconvenient to go home at night.

At this moment, in Jincheng near Beijing, an extremely absurd scene is unfolding.

Jincheng is a city that many people praise as being extremely suitable for retirement.

Generally speaking, this place has many advantages.

Because it is close to Beijing, naturally, many people are also snatching tickets for Luo Mo's tour 【Jingcheng Station】 online.

Right now, a man who looks to be in his thirties is staring at his phone screen, secretly dazed.

"I snatched a ticket!?" The man was stunned.

Honestly, snatching the ticket was, for him, both unexpected and within reason.

When others talk about 【hand speed】, it's all just a joke.

This Boss truly has hand speed.

He is a thief, after all.

And not just your average thief, either.

What do you mean "average"?! Back in the day, we would have been called master bandits!

This person is known in the underworld as 【Zhegu】, and in his circle, he is the type who has achieved the highest honor.

As for what that highest honor is?

—National Wanted.

But honestly, even with his skills, there was still an element of luck involved in snatching the ticket.

So, the question arises.

"Should I go or not?" 【Zhegu】 fell into a dilemma.

He participated in the ticket snatching only because everyone online had been clamoring for the past few days that this ticket snatching was basically Hell Mode, super hard to get!

【Zhegu】 checked the Reservation Count and looked at the comments under the Weibo Hot Search, discovering that the difficulty was indeed super high.

Then, he got a bit interested.

—Snatch it! Go online and try to snatch one!

For him, actually, if he really wanted to go to the concert, there would be no need to snatch tickets online.

Because that requires paying out of his own pocket, requires spending money.

He could just as well stroll around outside the Olympic Stadium; he might just be able to steal a few tickets.

It was purely because the internet was making such a huge fuss that he was inspired to participate.

But now, the money is paid, and the ticket is snatched—should he actually go or not?

Truth be told, he really does like Luo Mo's songs.

His favorite is that song by Luo Mo, "The You of the Past".

—Once dreamed of wielding a sword to roam the world, once you left, I stole your home.

To be factual, when he watched the video, watching the live performance of the super-long intro version of "The You of the Past", his blood was truly boiling.

Of course, he also likes Luo Mo's "Blue and White Porcelain" very much, and even thought about finding an opportunity to steal one somewhere.

Oh, right, right, "A Thousand Miles Away" is also great! Very suitable for someone like him who flees a thousand miles.

Wouldn't you know it, among the people who listen to songs, there really are all kinds of birds.

Just like among the readers who read books, all kinds of talents exist.

"Forget it, I'll go!" 【Zhegu】 made a decision in his heart.

He really, super likes Luo Mo's songs.

He even thought to himself: "His first solo concert, either I don't go, but if I go, I have to pay for it!"

"The hands can be dirty, but the music cannot be!"

【Zhegu】 could even guess that there might really be people in the concert who stole their way in.

At this thought, he glanced at his phone order, a mocking smile appearing on his face.

"Free-loading?"

"Heh, a thief is just a thief."

"That's why we are the master thieves!"

If Luo Mo knew that such a special talent had come to his concert, he might have felt a bit between laughter and tears.

"Have I received the script of the Fugitive Nemesis, Zhang Xueyou?"

On the other side, Beijing.

The helmsman of Big Beast Network, Chen Xi, was tasting new tea with the long-absent Pineapple, Wang Shisong.

In the small private room, a woman in a cheongsam was playing the guzheng, and another woman in a cheongsam was playing the pipa.

In any case, there was no tea on the table.

Chen Xi looked at Wang Shisong and first poured out a torrent of grievances.

"Old Wang, oh Old Wang, when you told me before that this guy Luo Mo was hard to deal with and particularly disgusting, I didn't take it seriously, but this time I truly believe it!"

As the largest ticket-selling platform in the country, what level of Singer's concert has Big Beast Network not been responsible for?

Well, they certainly haven't served a perverted-level one like Luo Mo.

This behavior of Big Beast Network privately selling tickets at high prices to scalpers has existed for many years.

That's where the real money is!

Just think, with Luo Mo's popularity, let's not even talk about a number that fits market trends, even if we just added 500 yuan to sell to scalpers.

The first concert has nearly 100,000 tickets; if I release half for everyone to grab, that's benevolent and righteous, that's industry conscience, right?

The remaining 50,000 tickets, multiplied by 500 yuan, that's 25 million!

Performing 5 shows in a row in Beijing, multiplied by 5, that's 125 million!

Of course, this money wouldn't all be earned by Big Beast Network.

Many Singers openly boycott scalpers while secretly splitting the profits with platforms; this is a common occurrence.

Many traffic stars are originally just harvesting their fans like leeks, but they still have to maintain an image, acting as if they don't want fans to spend extra money to see them, putting on a very considerate appearance, cursing scalpers in every way, and the fans are all moved.

In private, however, they earn pots of gold.

Many traffic Singers even hype their own concert tickets to sky-high prices and treat it as an honor!

Many fans also feel that their idol's tickets are so valuable, their idol is truly amazing, their idol is the most popular!

What is called real popularity? This is called real popularity!

After the concert ends, the idol can still lie in a mountain of gold, flip the sign of one or several tender fans, and spend a tender night.

How fragrant!

The reason Wang Shisong and Chen Xi are so familiar is simply because Pineapple also plays wildly in this regard, and they have collaborated countless times.

It's just that in recent years, their collaborations have become fewer and fewer.

Because Pineapple has long been doing worse and worse in the music scene, its market share has been completely taken by Luo Mo Studio and Xinyu, and its signed Singers have either run away or faded into obscurity.

If the Singer isn't popular, scalpers won't come to hype the ticket prices!

They might not even sell out at the normal price; it would be more like selling them to me at a low price.

For Chen Xi, Luo Mo's tour can be said to be the biggest piece of cake in history!

For this reason, he even personally contacted Luo Mo Studio several times to show his sincerity.

But the final result, you have seen it.

—"You are noble, you are amazing"!

Chen Xi tapped the tabletop lightly with his finger and cursed: "This person wants to come to the entertainment industry to be a saint!"

Wang Shisong really wanted to echo a few words, but he didn't know what to say.

All your Anger, I have long been used to it.

I even feel a bit of joy seeing you as angry as I was in the past.

Chen Xi continued to grumble incessantly, saying: "How does this person only know how to break the rules!"

Wang Shisong raised his eyes to look at him and said: "When has he ever done things according to the rules set by everyone?"

Chen Xi wanted to open his mouth several times, but didn't know how to reply.

It seems... that is the case?

This guy Luo Mo, he likes to set his own rules!

The reason Chen Xi is so angry actually lies in this.

You know, why is everyone looking forward to Luo Mo holding a concert?

Because it's not just him who hasn't held one; the people in his studio, like Tong Shu and Li Junyi, haven't held them either!

Small-scale ones have indeed been held, but tours have never been held.

If the big boss hasn't held one, it's hard for us to hold a tour, right?

Therefore, there are people on the internet playing with memes: "I am Tong Shu's mom-fan, Luo Mo, I beg you to hold a concert soon!"

And it is very obvious that if Luo Mo does this himself, in the future, when Tong Shu and others hold tours, they will likely operate the same way.

The Singers of Xinyu might all follow this model in the future!

You know, a large portion of today's popular Singers are all Luo Mo's people!

In other words, a large group of Singers qualified to operate scalper tickets all look to Luo Mo for leadership!

This is suddenly very terrifying.

This path of wealth for Chen Xi has been cut by at least half by Luo Mo with one stroke!

Is this person afraid that he really thinks of himself as the emperor of the music scene, rectifying the music scene?

Luo Mo: "In today's music scene, I can't say that everything is decided by me."

"But what I say still carries a little bit of weight."

………

………

At the Review Department, Zhong Lin's mood was very complicated.

She hadn't managed to snatch a ticket either.

Moreover, because of her special position and high level of awareness, she would not accept an 【Internal Ticket】 to attend the concert.

"Keep snatching tomorrow!" she encouraged herself.

Truth be told, aside from the fact that she couldn't snatch a ticket, Zhong Lin was actually in a very good mood overall.

There is no need to say much about what the Review Department of Blue Star is equivalent to on Earth.

Its work is not just limited to reviewing.

The entertainment industry is under its jurisdiction.

In private, Luo Mo had expressed his stance to Zhong Lin.

It was letting her see the dawn of rectifying certain chaotic phenomena!

Of course, many things cannot be achieved overnight; you have to eat a meal bite by bite, and walk a road step by step.

Being able to make a contribution and play a certain role is a good thing!

These days, many people love to be cynical and sarcastic; when they see others doing things, but the matter doesn't seem perfect or capable of curing all problems at once, they jump out to scold a few words.

Zhong Lin would not think that way.

She even somewhat viewed Luo Mo as an external staff member of the Review Department.

He is like an Undercover agent we sent into the entertainment industry.

Three years and another three years, ma'am, I'm about to become the boss of the entertainment industry!

After thinking for a moment, Zhong Lin began to send signals to her subordinates.

"You can go and contact the media we have previously deployed," Zhong Lin ordered.

Multiple media outlets with special characteristics took action one after another, publishing articles that had been prepared long ago.

In the articles, Luo Mo's behavior was praised extensively, and some concert chaos in the music scene was severely criticized! As well as some acts of collusion!

These articles caused the popularity of Luo Mo's personal concert to soar once again!

The tickets for the second 100,000-person concert at the 【Jingcheng Station】 were snatched up in an instant as soon as they went online!

The tickets for the third show were also snatched up instantly!

In an instant, the entire music scene was completely boiling!

To date, no Singer has been able to hold three consecutive 100,000-person concerts at the Beijing Olympic Stadium!

Not to mention that the tickets weren't sold off slowly, but sold out the moment they were listed!

"At this rate, Luo Mo can really sell 500,000 tickets in Beijing in one go!"

"Are you crazy? 500,000 concert-goers in one city!"

"This is simply unbelievable! It has refreshed my worldview once again!"

As for the internal staff of Luo Mo Studio, their hearts were as calm as an ancient well—the boss is so Ox, we are already used to it.

They were now busy contacting reliable security companies and cooperating with some of the work of the Beijing Police.

Time moved forward to the fifth day of ticket sales.

Today, the last batch of concert tickets for 【Jingcheng Station】 will be listed.

And everyone's enthusiasm did not seem to have waned.

The final result, as everyone expected, was that the last batch of tickets was also snatched up as soon as they were listed.

"Holding 3 consecutive 100,000-person concerts is creating history, so what level is holding five consecutive ones?"

"Damn, can five consecutive shows be snatched up like this too?"

"Amazing! My scalp is tingling!"

"When others go on a world tour, they travel the whole world, and the total number of listeners might not even reach 500,000, right? He sold 500,000 tickets for just one Jingcheng Station!"

Previously, some people felt that holding 5 consecutive shows might not guarantee a full house for the subsequent days.

However, judging from the current ticket sales, it feels... like we could add two more shows!?

Yes, after all the tickets were sold out, there was another wail on the internet.

"Please, add two more shows!"

"It's too hard to snatch, can you just hold ten shows!"

"As long as you don't die from Singing, just keep Singing until you die, hey!"

A very familiar slogan was once again flooding the entire internet—【Luo Mo! Work Overtime!】.

Looking at the slogan from his fans, Luo Mo only thought: "They really know how to care for their brother."

Come on, are you trying to make me mute?

Holding consecutive concerts is very tiring, and it's even more tiring to control a venue of 100,000 people.

Serving so many people in one go, I can't handle it!

Even a technician needs to take a break occasionally, right?

And honestly, to spread the love, other cities definitely have to be visited; I can't die at the first stop!

In the internal Singer group of Xinyu, everyone was chatting about Director Luo's terrifying record.

Selling so many tickets in one city is simply inconceivable.

And as for the Xinyu heiress Shen Yinuo, because she was the one who signed Luo Mo to Xinyu, she referred to Luo Mo as—my person—both inside the company and outside!

Of course, it's different now; she usually says: "I am Luo Mo's person!"

At this moment, the six members of Aurora Girls, each with their own unique characteristics, are gathered at Shen Yinuo's home.

Six pairs of long, fair legs occupy the ultra-soft beanbag sofas in her living room in various poses.

Shen Yinuo was scrolling through her phone when she suddenly let out a cry: "Ah!"

Dong Dong, sitting next to her, was the first to be taken aback, saying: "Don't look at me, I didn't touch her just now!"

"What are you shouting about again?" Jiang Ningxi asked Xiao Shen.

"Look at this, everyone!" Shen Yinuo shook her phone while clutching a throw pillow in her arms, the pillow held up as if she were weightlifting.

What Shen Yinuo was checking on her phone was the 【Global Concert Ticket Sales Ranking】.

It is currently March, which means the new year has only just begun.

"Luo Mo is ranked first in Asia and third in the world with 500,000 tickets sold!" Shen Yinuo said.

For a moment, the women were all extremely astonished.

You have to realize, the figures others have on the ranking list are from holding concerts in many different cities.

But what about Luo Mo?

He has currently only sold tickets for one 【Jingcheng Station】!
