Chapter 429 The Conception of the Carnival
From the current point of view, the holding of the League of Legends S1 season finals this time has a very good effect on the promotion of various industries in Atlanta.

Therefore, inspired by this incident, William Chen gradually came up with a more grand vision, that is to gather the most popular stars in the world together for a competition, which can also be said to be an entertainment program, so that it will definitely achieve more Good results.

It's just that the specific rule settings still need careful demonstration design.

For this reason, William Chen began to gather professionals related to variety shows and competitions to discuss and design this major event that will be named the Atlanta All-Star Carnival.

First of all, if this event wants to be sensational enough to attract global attention, it must gather the most popular stars in the world, including actors, singers, athletes, hosts, etc., who can reach a certain level of popularity. Invited.

For this reason, it is related to Chen William's other plan, that is, he plans to rely on data such as Meta Cloud and Alibaba Cloud, plus data capture software specially designed for this purpose, and use his big data analysis agencies around the world to create a global celebrity popularity list.

This list will calculate the popularity value of a certain celebrity from multiple dimensions, through the frequency of media reports, the frequency of mentions on the Internet and other data, and through the most suitable formula, calculate its global popularity value.

With such a list, it is a strategic weapon for William Chen's entertainment empire.

And through this list, it is also possible to define the threshold of stars to be invited to the carnival he will hold in Atlanta in the future.

I believe that with the participation of many of the most popular stars in the world, this carnival will definitely attract the attention of the world to Atlanta.

Another question is how to make these most popular stars willing to participate in this carnival?First of all, for celebrities, exposure is the most important, so as long as this carnival has enough attention, they will be willing to participate.

And this carnival will not be held by William Chen himself alone, he will jointly hold entertainment, fashion, consumer and other company brands. Sports brands such as Nike and Adidas, in order to gain higher exposure and produce advertising effects, will encourage their spokespersons to participate in this carnival.

And the spokespersons of these fashion and sports brands will definitely be very popular stars.

In the end, it is driven by profit. Since such a world-scale carnival is held, the final championship bonus must make these extremely high-income stars flock to it.

If ordinary bonuses are not attractive enough for these stars, how about a bonus of 1 million US dollars?
You know, in last year's global star income list, the highest annual income was talk show queen Oprah, her annual income in 2011 was 1.65 million US dollars.

William Chen's global star carnival is planned to be held in one month. If this is the case, getting the final championship income of 1 million US dollars in one month is probably very attractive to any star. Bar.

And in fact, even if the final bonus is 1 million U.S. dollars, William Chen may not have to pay all the money to unite all the famous brands in the world so that they can appear in this carnival, and the family will pay some "entrance fee ", maybe in the end not only does he not need to pay bonuses, but after the scale expands, he may be able to make money.

After all, if this kind of carnival has always been held in Atlanta, then in fact, many carnival facilities are a one-time investment, and can be used for a long time afterwards.

Therefore, after the world's most professional people in variety shows and entertainment events arrived in Atlanta through his assistant team, William Chen asked these people to sign a non-disclosure agreement and took them to the Atlanta Island. The "Future" on the pier of the island began a sea trip to the magic capital of Huaguo.

During this journey, these people need to brainstorm to perfect the rules and procedures of this carnival.

The first is the number of guests invited to this carnival. In William Chen’s opinion, the more the better, but since this will be the first time it will be held, experience needs to be accumulated, and too many people will require too complicated settings, so these "Competition experts" suggest that the number of people in the first session should be maintained between 20-40, and if it exceeds 50, it will be more difficult to control.

However, after gaining experience and gradually improving the process, it is possible to continue to expand the number of guests, and even reach a scale of over a hundred.

As for the selection of guests, it is necessary to follow up with various top brands, but since it is necessary to achieve global attention, it must choose the most popular stars in the world, but it also needs to adapt to different regions, such as large In China, many celebrities may not be as well-known globally as those in Europe and the United States, but they are top-notch in this region and can be invited.

Next, it is the form of the game, because the number of people will not be too small, and William Chen hopes to play the game within the entire island of Atlanta, so after the discussion, the "competition expert" suggested using a chessboard form, or It is said to be a game similar to the Monopoly game.

It is to simulate a specific area of ​​the entire Atlanta Island as a chessboard, or a map similar to the "Monopoly game". During the large-screen display during the game, the positions of the guests will be demonstrated in the form of this "virtual chessboard".

Then the guests decide their distance or direction through a certain mechanism, which can be a dice roll or some random event. The guests who meet in the end will fight through the competition to decide the elimination or the increase or decrease of the score.

In this way, if there are too many people at the beginning, the guests can also use some rules to randomly draw lots to form a team, first to carry out the group competition, and then after the number of people is eliminated to a certain level, each guest can disband the team and use their personal Continue to play in name.

Of course, the rules for forming a team must be relatively balanced, taking into account the strengths of each guest, for example, the same team needs to have people who are good at knowledge, have athletes with excellent athletic ability, have excellent communication skills, etc... …

Otherwise, if one team is all athletes and the other is all singers, it is likely to encounter a physical competition in the end, and the singer team will be suspended.

Moreover, the event setting of the competition also requires more trade-offs. It is impossible to say that the physical requirements are too high, and it is enough to maintain it at a level that is slightly rare for ordinary people, otherwise it may be very difficult for non-athlete guests.

In addition, it is also necessary to set up other types of competitions. The purpose is that everyone can have the type of competition they are good at, and complete the group competition through team cooperation.
