Chapter 67

After spending a day at Paradise Ranch, Wang Zixuan threw himself into rehearsals.

On March 5th, the ninth episode of "China's Got Talent" aired, and the ratings dropped again, but the 13% figure was still enough to make other shows look up in admiration.

The average rating for the first nine episodes of "China's Got Talent" was 13.333%, and the advertising fees that Evolution Media and the sponsors had bet on had risen to 3.996 billion yuan.

If the ratings for the Grand Finale night exceed 20%, the average rating for "China's Got Talent" will reach 14%, and the advertising fees will rise to 4.32 billion yuan.

Given Wang Zixuan's current popularity, it doesn't seem difficult for the Grand Finale night's ratings to exceed 20%.

On March 8th, Evolution Media auctioned off the Grand Finale night's advertisements.

To avoid causing viewer dissatisfaction, Evolution Media only produced six ads, but the reduction in quantity made the competition among advertisers even more intense.

The advertising effect of the first nine episodes of "China's Got Talent" was significant, with sales for the sponsors increasing substantially. Additionally, Wang Zixuan's appearance at the Grand Finale night made the final competition even more widely anticipated.

These two reasons prompted the advertisers to bid without hesitation.

In the end, the six ads were sold for a total of 150 million yuan.

Such a sky-high price stunned the industry.

The price of a single ad for the Grand Finale night was equivalent to the sponsorship fee for a season of a show with average ratings.

A reporter interviewed a manager from one of the winning companies.

Would you choose to become an overnight sensation or a season of mediocrity?

Advertising on "China's Got Talent" can enhance the company's brand value. Can other shows do the same?

These two rhetorical questions well explained the reason why advertisers were so enthusiastic about the Grand Finale night.

On the same day, Wang Zixuan's official website set up a registration page for the Grand Finale night. Those who wanted to participate in the Grand Finale night could register there, providing their identity information. However, people with heart disease or other conditions that could not withstand excitement were prohibited from registering, as Wang Zixuan would make a stunning appearance.

By March 10th, 60,000 lucky audience members would be randomly selected to attend the Grand Finale night.

After Wang Zixuan announced this news on Weibo, many media outlets also forwarded the report.

A large number of netizens logged onto Wang Zixuan's official website to register, and many also registered as members of the website.

Now, the number of members on Wang Zixuan's official website has exceeded 3 million, although it cannot compare to the more than 10 million followers on his Weibo. However, these members are mostly true fans of Wang Zixuan, while many of his Weibo followers only occasionally check his Weibo and are not true fans.

In just two days, the number of registrants exceeded 30 million. This was also due to Evolution Media deliberately shortening the registration period to avoid people who registered early but could not attend when the time came, wasting the slots.

The number of members on Wang Zixuan's official website also increased to over 7 million due to this event.

On March 10th, the website announced the 60,000 lucky winners.

Evolution Media began contacting these people. If anyone could not attend, their slot would be given to other audience members. They were also reminded again that people with heart disease or other conditions that could not withstand excitement should not take the risk.

Evolution Media's repeated reminders also built up the anticipation, and everyone was guessing how Wang Zixuan would make his stunning appearance.

On the same day, the four mentors and four disciples of "China's Got Talent" went to the Bird's Nest for a rehearsal.

However, Wang Zixuan did not show up.

The stage, lighting, and sound effects for the Grand Finale night were all designed by the world's top teams, with a total expenditure exceeding 100 million yuan, making it the most expensive concert in the world.

Even before the Grand Finale night, these news stories dominated various media.

By March 12th, the nation's attention was focused on the capital, as the Grand Finale night was about to begin, featuring the most legendary genius, the world's richest person, and China's top philanthropist in the final performance.

Numerous journalists also gathered in the capital.

At noon, a highly impressive fleet of cars suddenly appeared on the streets of the capital.

In the middle was a white extended Rolls-Royce, with four Knight XV armored SUVs surrounding it.

The Knight XV is a super-luxury armored SUV made in Canada. It looks like an armored vehicle, with explosion-proof nets on the headlights and a very aggressive appearance, measuring over six meters in length.

Even a 4.5-meter-long Hummer looks small in comparison to the Knight XV.

Most people did not recognize the Knight XV, but seeing the armored vehicle-like body and the white extended Rolls-Royce in the middle, everyone knew the owner must be very wealthy.

Soon, someone took photos and posted them online for netizens to identify.

There are many car enthusiasts online, and it didn't take long for someone to recognize this luxury civilian armored SUV, which is entirely handcrafted, with luxurious carpets, leather seats, and all the luxury features you can imagine.

The body is as bulletproof and explosion-proof as an armored vehicle and even comes with an active pressure defense system against toxic gas attacks.

The empty weight is as high as six tons, with a fuel consumption of 58 liters per 100 kilometers, making it a true fuel-guzzling monster.

A single Knight XV is worth over 10 million yuan, and the delivery time from order to pickup often takes several months.

The monstrous Knight XV even overshadowed the extended Rolls-Royce in the middle.

When this highly impressive fleet arrived at the airport, it immediately caught the attention of the journalists waiting there.

Although the Grand Finale night did not invite any guests, many stars and big names still came to support, especially the celebrity judges from the preliminary rounds, so many journalists were waiting at the airport.

Wang Zixuan's performance as the finale did not change the nature of the Grand Finale night as the final of "China's Got Talent," with the four disciples still being the main stars and the four mentors only singing a duet with their respective disciples.

Some clever journalists had already guessed who this impressive fleet was picking up.

Apart from the prodigal son who donated 100 billion yuan, no one else seemed willing to arrange such a fleet. Even if they were willing, they might not be so ostentatious.

Sure enough, after waiting for more than half an hour, Wang Zixuan, dressed in a white suit and looking incredibly handsome, emerged from the VIP channel, surrounded by a team of black-suited bodyguards.

The waiting journalists, upon seeing Wang Zixuan, immediately started snapping photos.

As soon as Wang Zixuan and his entourage emerged, the journalists immediately surrounded them, asking questions in a cacophony of voices.

"May I ask what song you will perform at the Grand Finale night?"

"May I ask if you will sing a Chinese song or an English song?"

"May I ask how you will make your appearance?"

Wang Zixuan smiled charmingly and waved to the journalists.

The journalists immediately fell silent.

Wang Zixuan smiled and said, "To give everyone a surprise, everything is kept secret, but people with heart conditions should not watch the show alone."

After saying this, he got into the extended Rolls-Royce, surrounded by bodyguards.

This fleet was pre-ordered by him, and he paid a high fee to have the manufacturer work overtime to produce it.

Seeing the four monstrous Knight XVs, he almost didn't want to sit in the extended Rolls-Royce.

Wang Zixuan got into the extended Rolls-Royce, and the accompanying bodyguards got into the Knight XVs.

The fleet slowly left.
