King of the Wilderness

Chapter 491: Chapter 272: Opportunity for Cultural Export

"Scoot, my advice to you is to keep a close eye on market sentiment and media trends." He gave more operable instructions.

"When this iconic detonation event occurs and the stock price experiences the craziest vertical surge, that’s the signal that the party is about to end."

"After that, no matter how much higher the stock price can rise, we must leave without hesitation. Because that’s the guillotine left for the madmen, and the butcher knife will fall then."

This half-truth analysis, both prophetic and retaining uncertainty, immediately calmed Scoot on the other end of the call.

He realized for a moment that Lin Yu’an’s source of information might indeed come from an unspeakable power.

Scoot took a deep breath, his awe deepening another layer: "Lin, I understand, I’ll exit after the ultimate detonation event."

The other end of the call was silent for a moment, and when Scoot spoke again, he had perfectly restrained his previous gambler-like excitement.

He returned to the state of a top broker strategist, even with a hint of excitement for planning Lin Yu’an’s future.

"Lin, let’s get back to our business." He skillfully shifted the topic from the private affair of GME back to business.

"Your performance this time in Vancouver, both Brian and I saw it, absolutely perfect. The feedback from Archaeopteryx was excellent, and LVMH showed extraordinary interest in you."

"We unanimously believe that we must strike while the iron is hot, pushing your influence from the current circle to a more mainstream, explosive Domain."

He didn’t mention reciprocation but directly approached from a career planning angle, naturally leading to his own topic.

"Oh? Do you have any plans?" Lin Yu’an cooperatively asked.

"An opportunity that can once again take you to new heights." Scoot’s voice carried a hint of a smile.

"Justin, his concert next month at Madison Square Garden, you know it’s the Holy Hall of global pop music."

"We’ve been looking for a mysterious guest who can ignite the audience and bring cross-cultural topics."

He paused, allowing the weight of these words to settle, then continued: "Justin and I discussed for a long time, and we both feel there’s no one more suitable for this role than you."

Scoot cleverly packaged this opportunity as a thoughtful decision by him and Justin, rather than his unilateral reciprocation.

"Think about it, Lin." Scoot began to paint that enticing blueprint, "In front of tens of thousands of Madison Square Garden attendees and tens of millions of global live viewers."

"This is not just a performance, it’s a traffic nuclear explosion!"

"Your current fan demographic is mainly concentrated among men aged 25 to 45. This is a very valuable group, but its size is still too limited."

"And Justin’s fans are the global 15 to 25-year-old young demographic, the most active, crazy, and impactful group on the internet."

"What does being his guest mean?"

"It means your name will be spread to every corner of the earth overnight through TikTok, Instagram, and Twitter."

"Your Instagram followers may skyrocket by millions or even tens of millions in one night."

"All your previous videos will be re-explored and ignited by this new surge of immense traffic."

He summarized, "In simple terms, this stage appearance can help you accomplish in one night the fan accumulation and breakthrough process that would usually take three to five years."

"It will transform you from an influential opinion leader in a specific Domain into a genuine top-tier influencer with global mainstream visibility."

"By then, it won’t just be Archaeopteryx and LVMH reaching out, but Coca-Cola, Nike, Sony..."

"All top consumer brands aiming for a young audience will be waving checkbooks, lining up at CAA’s door."

"As for the performance content, it’s completely free." He showed the utmost sincerity, "If you want to sing your original pieces, we’ll provide the best arrangements and stage."

"If you want to cover songs, regardless of who holds the copyright, CAA’s legal department will handle everything for you."

He changed his tone, speaking in a more intimate manner, "If you can duet with Justin on one of his songs, preferably ’Recovery,’ the effect... would definitely be nuclear-level."

The blueprint Scoot painted was undeniably irresistible to any artist, but he was speaking to Lin Yu’an.

Lin Yu’an quietly listened to all his analysis but didn’t immediately show excitement, instead falling into a long silence.

Scoot on the other end of the call was slightly surprised, sensitively detecting Lin Yu’an’s hesitation: "Lin? What’s wrong? This opportunity... you don’t like it?"

"No, Scoot, I do like it." Lin Yu’an finally spoke, his voice carrying an extraordinary calm, "I’m just considering a more practical issue."

"What issue?"

"Retention rate."

This term made Scoot slightly stunned.

Lin Yu’an continued, "You’re right, stepping onto the stage at Madison Square Garden is like a tsunami, instantly bringing me millions in exposure and millions of new fans."

"But after the tsunami subsides, what remains?"

"My core content is wilderness and hunting, whereas Justin’s fans are attracted by pop culture and strong sensory stimulation. There’s a huge gap between the two."
