Ayumi Hamasaki to hit Chinese cities again

Japanese pop queen Ayumi Hamasaki is set to hit Hong Kong, Shanghai and Taipei for her second Asian tour, the exact same Chinese cities as her first tour last year, her agent Avex announced on Thursday.
Ayumi's solo concert reaches Hong Kong on September 20, the Shanghai Grand Stage on October 18, and the Taipei Arena on November 1.

Despite the announcement, at the beginning of 2008, that she had gone deaf in her left ear, the tour for celebrating the tenth anniversary of Ayumi's singing career started as scheduled on April 5 in Tokyo. So far, the concerts across Japan have drawn a total audience of some 230, 000 people, the Shanghai-based Oriental Morning Post reports.

Multiplying the price of the tickets [7800 yen] and the amount of fans that will watch [260,000] gives us around 2,028,000,000, two billion twenty-eight million.

And then you add the goods that people probably purchase [a shirt, random object, ayupan, and a fan, which is around 5700 yen] times the amount of people.. comes out to be: 1,462,000,000, one billion, four hundred sixty-two million.

2,020,000,000 + 1,462,000,000 = 3,482,000,000 yen = 32.5 million USD

Of course, you have to take into account that people will pay different prices for tickets and that people will buy TONS more or TONS less tour goods. I think that they tend to make quite a bit more.. I mean, that's how they can keep doing all of these tours. It seems as though the tour costs are always pretty high for Ayu's shows. Probably because they know that Ayu can bring in enough money so that they don't perform at a loss.

I think because Ayumi's biggest profits nowadays are from her tours Avex does sponsor.

And like Truehappiness's calculation, they pretty much get the money back.

Thanks, guys, for that. I totally forgot about the cash that tour goods bring in. x_x

Those are a lot though!! Awesome.
