After hearing what Crick said, Bloomberg also had a faint smile on his face.

The founder of Bloomberg also feels that today’s good show should give him a lot of points.

"The concert on the 11th is very important." Abel said, "I think this should be able to increase your support rate by a few percentage points, Michael."

"I understand." Bloomberg looked cautious.

"Giuliani has agreed." Bloomberg said: "Fortunately, we don't have to spend so much money this time."

Last year Abel held a Christmas Eve show in Times Square.

Although there is a brand of Elizabeth's back garden erected in the back.

This brand is now ranked around 450th in the world on the Forbes list.

The brand is worth hundreds of millions of dollars, and the company's market value has exceeded two billion dollars.

Revenue from last year to now has exceeded US$500 million.

There is no doubt that it is a very successful marketing that created this cutting-edge brand.

But if it failed at that time, the nearly 80 million US dollars invested by Abel would be in vain.

If 9/11 had not happened, any media company or music company would want to hold a concert in Times Square.

Even with Abel's connections, it would probably cost around hundreds of millions of dollars.

Only by opening up all links can we hold this kind of event in Times Square like Isa Company.

Almost hundreds of millions of dollars of capital investment.

No music company or media company dares to take such a big risk like Abel.

Fortunately, thanks to September 11, justice stood in the way, and even the New York City Council did not dare to stop it this time.

Therefore, the cost of this charity concert held in Times Square was much lower.

Abel and Bloomberg each offered $1 million.

Most of the total funds of two million US dollars were used to build the stage and specific expenses.

If this were any other time.

Opening up the entire government link in New York would cost an estimated US$40 to 50 million. Including donations, expenses, etc., the total would be about US$890 million.

Then you have to factor in the cost of hiring a singer to sing.

The costs in this area are also exaggerated.

For example, if you invite Michael Jackson to appear, the appearance fee will be more than 5 million US dollars, and a VCR recording will cost 500,000 US dollars.

A concert requires at least ten or twenty people, right?

That's tens of millions of dollars in appearance fees

Calculated, if we just rely on spending money to hold a concert in Times Square, it will cost no more than US$120-150 million.

In other words, the New Year's Eve concert in Times Square and the September 11th charity fund-raising concert in Times Square do not need to spend so much money in these special circumstances.

The two discussed some concert matters, and Klick also joined.

Because the security at that time will mainly be provided by the NYPD.

Compared to Abel and Crick, Bloomberg is obviously more concerned.

If such a good opportunity to win over ordinary voters is missed, it will affect the election.

Bloomberg can’t even let himself go.

Abel felt a little pity for the singers who were invited by DreamWorks Music.

No one dared to refuse the invitation, and no one dared to make additional requests.

This group of superstars usually have such special personalities that even the bosses of music companies would coax them to come.

After they heard that they could sing in Times Square or pray in memory of those who died on September 11, 2011.

Even if there is no appearance fee for the concert, there is not even transportation fee.

Even if they have to pay for the air tickets and accommodation to come to New York, they have to pay for it themselves.

These people still all came here in a hurry.

This made Abel's prepared thoughts of adding insult to injury and harming singers signed by other music companies and record companies all come to nothing.

It can only be said that ZZZQ, which Americans like to play most, has taken the concept of moral kidnapping to the extreme.

Under the banner of ZZZQ, even if the singer himself does not want to, the singer's manager and company will tie them here.

After noon.

Crick and Bloomberg got together and left, and Abel also left the Woolworth Building.

Surrounded by a motorcade, he left Manhattan.

He was going to Brooklyn, a neighborhood he rarely visited.

Brooklyn is the most populous of the five boroughs in New York City.

It has a large population of about 2 million and a very large area of ​​251 square kilometers. By these two standards, it is the largest among the five boroughs of New York City.

If the boroughs of New York were independent cities, then Brooklyn would be the third most populous city after Los Angeles and Chicago, and the fourth largest city in the United States.

As a characteristic of America as a country of immigrants, especially New York City, the capital of the world, Brooklyn has residents from almost all over the world.

It is precisely for this reason that in the 1980s and 1990s, this place was famous for its poor public security.

Fortunately, since New York City Mayor Giuliani took office, public security has been greatly improved, and the quality of living has gradually improved.

But even so, after Abel entered the area.

The number of vehicles in his fleet has also increased to seven.

The six accompanying Cadillac cars and SUVs carried a total of 24 rock security staff.

Including Lincoln and Edward in the Cadillac monster car, there were a total of twenty-six bodyguards and a driver accompanying them.

At the same time, what is even more outrageous is that when Crick separated from Abel, he knew that he was coming to Brooklyn.

Today, the chief, who showed a rapport with Abel between the police and the public, also made several special phone calls.

The results of these phone calls.

It was Abel's motorcade as soon as it crossed the Brooklyn Bridge.

This side of the Brooklyn Bridge.

Five police stations in Brooklyn dispatched seven police cars and 21 mounted police officers on motorcycles to patrol within 200 meters of the motorcade.

There are even two police helicopters on standby at the helipad directly above the two precincts.

This made Abel feel physically and mentally happy in the back compartment of the Cadillac Monster.

It also made Abel feel that he was now a real New York local snake.

It is not in vain that I have been investing tirelessly in this place.

"Hey, it would be great if a Black Hand gang, Blood Gang, Crip Gang or something came out to slap me in the face."

As he tapped on the car window in boredom and looked at the Brooklyn street scene passing by outside the window, Abel couldn't help but sigh.

It's a pity that there are not so many slaps in the face in reality.

Those gang members were not idiots. They saw such a fleet of luxury Cadillacs.

I have already run as far as I can.

What's more, there are so many police cars and mounted policemen visible to the naked eye.

No matter how arrogant a gang member is, it is impossible for them to come and die under such circumstances.

If you want to get slapped in the face, Abel would have to wear a brand-name suit and go to the black area of ​​Brooklyn alone.

But this is also impossible. For Abel, who is eager to bring along the special PMC personnel of the Rock Security Company, it is impossible for him to do such a risky thing.

In this way, Abel became very popular all the way.

Soon we came to the Bensenhe District of Brooklyn, a small sports ground located on the edge of the East River in New York.

Once outside the sports ground, through the car window, Abel could see a large number of vehicles parked in the parking lot of the sports ground.

There are many luxury cars and nanny cars inside.

Around the parking lot, you can also see more reporters, photographers, and videographers.

The reason why such a scene occurred is because it started on October 4th.

Many well-known singers and musicians across the United States suddenly appeared here.

These big stars come in batches every day and leave one after another.

They were rehearsing the concert inside this small sports ground.

They were preparing for a charity fundraising concert to be held in Times Square on the night of October 11th.
