Reaching the age of thirty, my income randomly doubled

Chapter 275: Chapter 201 - Double Preparation_3



Just, they were quite happy to work overtime.

Because no matter the salary, the overtime pay for this day was a thousand.

The boss was still very generous.

A crowd of fifty thousand people, and just these few in charge of maintaining order certainly wasn't enough.

Chen Pingsheng also hired six security service companies, putting together an on-site security team of eight hundred people.

It was his first time hosting such a large concert, and he couldn't afford a single slip-up.

This was to be broadcast live on-site, and it would also be streamed simultaneously on three major internet platforms.

The security team, as well as the people from Tengying Entertainment, arrived here at two in the afternoon.

The concert was to start at six in the evening and end at eleven.

Each person's appearance fee was over ten million, so a short duration wouldn't suffice.

There were terms and conditions, including what songs to sing, all dictated by them.

The Bird's Nest was indeed the largest concert venue in Capital City.

It could accommodate around ninety thousand people at the same time.

They only released fifty thousand tickets online, but surely, they would let quite a few tourists enter on-site as well.

Zhang Wanyi and Liu Qing from Financial University had arrived early to queue up.

Thinking they had come early enough, they did not expect the venue to be still packed with people.

It was so crowded they couldn't squeeze in.

"My God, aren't there too many people?"

"A free view of the Four Great Singers, who wouldn't come!"

"Sure they'd come, but does it have to be this exaggerated?"

Indeed, it was exaggerated. Many fans of the celebrities had arrived, all holding various signs.

This was the first time the Four Great Singers were performing on the same stage, and it was said online that the organizers had spent a fortune.

Seeing the situation now, the two had clearly underestimated the influence of the Four Great Singers.

They thought they'd have to wait until the start at six to get in, but by three o'clock, someone with a loudspeaker in the front began shouting.

"Everyone, please line up, we are now starting to check IDs for entry."

Dozens of checkpoints, everyone lining up for inspection.

Long queues formed in all directions.

Fortunately, various emergency plans had been prepared in advance.

Zhang Wanyi and Liu Qing were queuing on the left, both silently thinking, would they have to wait inside for three hours if they entered now?

And if they got hungry later, would they have to come out to eat?

"Liu Qing, how about I stay in line, and you go buy some food?"

"That works, but it'll be our turn soon."

The two moved forward slowly, meeting quite a few familiar classmates along the way.

Many from different universities had come.

Up ahead, Bai Xin with a loudspeaker shouted, "Aside from the VIP area, you may choose any other seat at will, and our boss has prepared plenty of snacks for everyone. Everyone can get a bag upon entering."

"They've even prepared snacks for us?"

Liu Qing found it quite unbelievable. Why would they prepare these for them when the concert was free?

They hadn't made a penny for the boss.

It didn't make sense.

After finally queuing and entering, someone was indeed handing out snacks, all bagged up already.

And it was the employees from Water Cloud Space who were distributing them.

The boss wasn't short on money, everyone helping out got a thousand for the day.

Sixty locations were handing out at the same time.

By the time it was Zhang Wanyi and Liu Qing's turn, they received two custom umbrellas from Antler Coffee.

Just by looking you could tell the quality was very good.

In addition to the umbrellas, there were two custom delivery bags from Antler Coffee, quite good-looking as well.

Opening the bags to see what was inside, they were truly surprised.

A box of Dove chocolate, a cup of Antler Coffee, a bottle of Wahaha, plus a pack of beef jerky, chips, several spicy strips, and a spicy chicken leg burger.

And, a serving of roasted chicken wings.

"This..."

Zhang Wanyi incredulously looked at Liu Qing. Was this the kind of treatment you get for a free concert?

"Is the boss really that wealthy?"

One or two such bags would of course not surprise them.

But key here was that there were tens of thousands of them.

We need to prepare in advance, which requires a huge amount of manpower and resources.

There are thousands of people just responsible for distributing these items.

There's also one or two security personnel stationed at every location.

Just in the inner field, the service staff alone numbers over two thousand people, not to mention all those serving outside.

What is the boss thinking?

No idea, but it doesn't stop them from getting a good spot early. The early bird catches the worm, now they can sit close to the front and see the stars up close.

I thought the concert wouldn't start until six.

But at three-thirty, the surrounding screens lit up all at once.

Zhang Wanyi and Liu Qing were both startled, and what surprised them even more was that the first host to take the stage was Yang Mi.

This spectacle, it really scared me.

Yang Mi hosting is truly a first.

Yang Mi was quite humorous, "Hello everyone, welcome to the Antler Coffee Starlight Concert. I am Antler Coffee's brand spokesperson and its online promoter."

"The concert was originally scheduled to start at six, but the boss didn't want everyone to wait so long, so before the Four Great Singers take the stage, there will be a two-hour medley concert."

"I won't reveal the star lineup, to give you all a little surprise."

"Now, please welcome our first performer, the moment 'Night Song' plays, come on stage to receive your award."

"It's Jay Chou's song."

Oh~~ The crowd below burst into noise.

It seems that no one expected, just half an hour in, only over ten thousand people had entered.

The organizers actually didn't want them to wait in vain.

They directly arranged a major star medley concert.

And the first one to take the stage was everyone's shared idol from the eighties and nineties,

The legendary singer, Jay Chou.

At the same time, the live footage from the scene was transmitted online.

Countless people were watching in real time.

This is what you call grand, this is what you call cool. That's it.

This is what you call 'money is no object,' the Antler Coffee concert.

The backdrop was filled with the iconic brand logos of Antler Coffee.

Zhang Wanyi and Liu Qing were both thrilled.

Who says free stuff can't be good? The scale of this event is simply ferocious.

The medley concert means each person performs three or four songs. Following Jay Chou was the so-called 'Iron Lung Diva' Deng Ziqi, whose song 'Bubble' went viral all over the internet.

She too brought five of her signature hits.

In an instant, including online, the number of real-time viewers quickly surpassed ten million.

People kept coming into the venue.

As the inside filled up more and more, the passion on site was at fever pitch.

There was a five-minute intermission in the middle, followed by a series of top-tier stars taking the stage.

The screams rose and fell incessantly, hardly ever stopping.

Antler Coffee showed the tens of thousands on site with actions, that it lacked everything.

Except money.

Whatever you want to see, they can invite them all.

Their main selling point is simply 'money is no object.'

And finally, at six, the sky screens started showing Antler Coffee's lead-in brand promotional video.

The entire segment was introduced by Yang Mi.

Elegant, tasteful, and only ninety-nine cents a cup.

I'm so touched, it sells for this price and still invites us to such a great concert.

Your company must be trying to go bankrupt!

After the Antler Coffee promotional video concluded, next up was the promotional video for the movie Charlotte.

Among the movies of the same period, Charlotte certainly had the lowest profile.

But after tonight, that completely changed.

A concert watched by tens of millions simultaneously, with the venue plastered with its ads.

If this doesn't catch fire, it'd be only because the quality is too poor to even promote.

Unfortunately, Charlotte's quality is absolutely the strongest among its contemporaries.

Then it was announced that each person at the site would receive a Charlotte movie ticket.

At six sharp, the main event began.

The first one to take the stage was Mr. Guo, performing the first energizing song… let's get moving.
