The Amazing Son-in-Law [The Charismatic Charlie Wade] (Chinese name) Chapter: 7044

Charlie Wade decided to ask Han Meiqing and He Yuanjiang a question. “Do you two know anything about Tawanna Sweet?”

Han Meiqing smiled and replied, “She’s a big star and a popular singer. I enjoy listening to her songs sometimes.”

He Yuanjiang added, “I don’t listen to her much, but I liked Zhiqiu a lot, so I’ve heard some of Tawanna’s music.”

Charlie Wade grinned and said, “What I really want to talk about is how we can get Changying Automobile to host twenty of Tawanna’s solo concerts in China.”

“Twenty performances?!” He Yuanjiang exclaimed, surprised by the number. “I’ve read financial articles about Tawanna’s concerts in Singapore. The economic impact is huge! Her shows bring in more than just ticket sales; they involve advertising, venues, and food. Fans travel from far away, and even though the concerts last just a few hours, they create a lot of spending on travel, hotels, dining, and shopping. If she holds twenty concerts in China, it will greatly benefit our economy.”

He then looked at Charlie Wade and asked, “But I heard that Tawanna has never performed in China. Our Changying Automobile isn’t a professional event company. Can we really bring her here?”

Charlie Wade smiled and responded, “I’ve already made an agreement with her and her management. Over the next few years, she will do at least 50 concerts for me. But I don’t plan to do all 50 at once. Let’s start with 20 this year and see how it goes.”

Yuanjiang exclaimed in surprise, “This is incredible! Just think about the economic benefits from hosting 20 concerts. The advertising impact alone is unmatched!”

“Absolutely,” Charlie Wade agreed. “These twenty concerts will be hosted and sponsored solely by Changying Automobile. This means we won’t be selling any other advertisements. We’ll focus entirely on showcasing Changying’s brand name and logo.”

He Yuanjiang responded, “But won’t that mean we lose out on a lot of advertising revenue? If the concert fees are too high, could we end up losing money?”

“Not at all,” Charlie said with a smile. “We won’t pay any fees for these 20 concerts; we only have to cover the venue costs. For a star of her level, we won’t need to spend anything at all. The publicity will come from the media. Once she officially announces these concerts, every major news outlet will cover it, and it will make the front page.”

He Yuanjiang was excited. “That sounds amazing! Top stars only hold concerts like this, and the long-lasting impact will be huge. People will still talk about these great concerts years later, which means our advertising benefits will continue for a long time!”

Han Meiqing, who had been listening, thought for a moment and said, “If Changying Automobile is going to host these performances, we need to make sure we have all the required qualifications. We have to start with the performance application approval and ensure we meet all the necessary criteria, especially since there are stricter requirements for foreign entertainers.”

Charlie Wade said, “This is something Aunt Han is good at. How do you think we should handle it?”

Han Meiqing replied, “The simplest solution is to buy a company that already has all the necessary qualifications. Once we buy it, we can rename it Changying Auto Performance Brokerage Co., Ltd. We need to find the right company for this, and we should be able to complete the name change quickly.”

“Okay,” Charlie Wade said. “Let’s just buy an existing company.”

He Yuanjiang then asked, “Since we are hosting the performance, should we find a platform to help with ticket sales?”

Charlie Wade shook his head and said, “I don’t trust any ticketing platform in China. I’m worried they’ll prioritize profit and turn into scalpers.”

“Do you mean we should handle ticket sales ourselves?” He Yuanjiang asked.

“Yes,” Charlie Wade responded. “I thought about it before I came here. The biggest challenge for this performance will be selling tickets. For a top international star like Tawanna, we won’t have any issues with getting approvals for the event. China is actively encouraging international stars to perform here. As for venues, we have nothing to worry about. Our economy has been growing rapidly, and the domestic performance market is thriving. Cities that are second-tier and above have venues with excellent facilities. Plus, Tawanna’s team brings their own stage and sound equipment, so all the hardware is covered.”

“I don’t profit from performances, so I hope there won’t be any favoritism during ticket sales,” he added.

The sales process must be fair for everyone. We have a real-name system for both ticket sales and entry. This means that if someone buys a ticket for 2,000, they cannot sell it for a higher price, like 20,000 or even 2 million, and still get in.

Charlie Wade emphasized the need for fairness and suggested, “We should handle the ticketing ourselves. We could create software or a small program to manage ticket sales.”

He Yuanjiang responded, “Creating ticketing software can be challenging because it needs to handle a lot of traffic at once. When tickets go on sale, millions of people may try to buy them at the same time. If we rush to develop software now, it might struggle to manage that many users without crashing.”

Han Meiqing added, “Even with official ticket sales and a real-name system, we must be cautious about technical scalpers.”

She explained, “I’ve come across cases of technical scalpers who create special software to help people who are too busy or afraid they’ll miss out on tickets. These people give their personal information to the scalpers, who use it to buy tickets on their behalf. This raises their chances of getting tickets, but the scalpers often charge a high fee upfront. Even though tickets are sold under real names, scalpers still profit illegally and harm honest buyers.”
