The pop music world in September was originally very calm, and no superstars in the industry chose to release new albums or singles this month. Therefore, the four major music websites have become the stage for the new generation of singers and idols to compete.
Feixun Music, Yiwang Music, Pop Radio and Voice of China have all released albums by singers and artists since the beginning of this month, but the most eye-catching one is undoubtedly the duel between the four newcomers of Feixun Music Network!
Cui Zhengzhi, Lu Chen, Zou Bei and Ling Xiaoxiao are all outstanding artists of the new generation in China.
Everyone thought that Cui Zhengzhi, who had the advantage of time, location, and people, would definitely be the final winner.
Cui Zhengzhi also thought so, so when he was interviewed by the media, he dismissed Lu Chen.
However, the truth gave him a slap in the face!
At 7:00 pm on September 9th, 24 hours after Cui Zhengzhi and Lu Chen's first album, the sales volume of "Hotfire" was 67,520 copies, and the sales volume of "You at the Same Table" was 65,117 copies. The gap between the two narrowed to more than 1,000 open.
In fact, both Cui Zhengzhi and Cheng Tian Entertainment, which he signed with, knew very well that the real sales of "Hotfire" would be minus 15,000 copies. If Lu Chen didn't buy the list, it meant that he was 13,000+ sales behind!
For a whole day, Cui Zhengzhi didn't update his blog, nor let Cui Xiuyin write it for him.
He even turned down the announcement in the afternoon, and just stood in front of the computer and stared at the sales data of Feixun Music Network.
It's like being possessed by a demon!
Cui Xiuyin didn't dare to persuade, she could only explain and apologize to the company because of Cui Zhengzhi's sudden illness.
After all, it is a very bad thing for a new artist to temporarily cancel the announcement that has been arranged. Even if Cui Zhengzhi is very popular in Chengtian Entertainment because of his parents, he still faces questioning from the upper echelons.
Cui Zhengzhi's condition was really as if he was sick. He didn't believe that he would lose to Lu Chen.
Although he desperately said in his heart that Lu Chen also bought the list, his intuition told this proud new idol that Lu Chen's results were probably true.
But how is this possible
The works in Lu Chen's album already have a live version in advance, and they can be easily searched online. He didn't spend money on publicity, so he just made a temporary hype. How could the results be so good
how is this possible!
Cui Zhengzhi couldn't figure it out, wishing he could smash all the computers on the table.
If the company hadn't bought the list for him, then now he would have to bear the humiliation of being trampled under by Lu Chen!
Lu Chen also couldn't figure it out.
He also stood in front of the computer, looking at the constantly jumping numbers on the Feixun Music Network sales weekly list, and Li Mubai who was sitting next to him eating a fast food box lunch.
Lu Chen's initial sales target for "You at the Same Table" was 100,000+. Later, when he faced Cui Zhengzhi, he increased the cost of publicity and hype, and his expectation was raised to 150,000+, ensuring that he could still make a fortune.
But I never expected that the sales volume on the first day would reach 60,000+. If there is no sharp drop, the total sales will at least exceed 300,000+, reaching the standard of big sales.
Lu Chen felt a little baffled, as if he was suddenly hit by a pie that fell from the sky.
His gaze fell on Li Mubai involuntarily, with a puzzled look on his face.
Li Mubai swallowed the food in his mouth, and said: "You don't need to look at me, now I'm so poor that I've been advertising for you in the Feixun group for the past two days, and I don't have the money to buy you a list. I didn't know what it was before. Buy list!"
"With this money, I can eat well. How can I eat this? But..."
The poor and dignified Li family's third young master is now reduced to a mess.
Li Murong's words cut off his pocket money for this month, and a master like him would never save as much as he spent, so he suddenly became embarrassed.
The Porsche sports car has already been given over to Li Mushi with a 40% discount on the bleeding price, but the latter is still in arrears and has not paid the money.
So Li Mubai could only watch for Zhongchou to get up and running quickly.
Where did he eat boxed lunch for 15 yuan before, but now he eats it very deliciously: "The big row is not bad."
Lu Chen couldn't laugh or cry, but Li Mubai definitely didn't help him buy the list.
So this sales performance is real!
But why
Although he has millions and millions of live fans and blogs, most of them are fans of passers-by, and there are not many real hardcore fans. Even if it is an album worth 8 yuan, there will not be too many Multiple purchases.
This situation is not limited to him, including new artists like Cui Zhengzhi. The current fans are very shrewd, and it is easy to like the new and dislike the old, and they often follow more than one celebrity idol.
Solid popularity and real fans require long-term accumulation and cultivation. Lu Chen's rise is fast, but his foundation is not solid. In addition, he is much more low-key than other artists, so no matter whether it is the outside world or himself, everyone Not very optimistic about the sales of "You at the Same Table".
The result is so unexpected!
Lu Chen shook his head and said to Li Mubai: "Look at the situation again, if the sales of Feixun.com drop significantly, then we will officially launch the crowdfunding website to crowdfund albums and commemorative sets."
According to the plan, Crowdfunding went online yesterday, the website has already been built, and there is only one project for the time being.
However, "You at the Same Table" was a big hit on Fetion Music, so Lu Chen had to change his plan. After discussing with Li Mushi, he planned to postpone it for about 10 days, so as to avoid the situation where his left hand beat his right hand.
Li Mushi didn't object, the office of the new company was still being renovated, and she had too many entertainments just after returning to China.
Li Mubai suffered only because he lost his money and his car, so he could only go to Lu Chen's studio for a meal all day long.
Li Mubai tried his best to compete with the big row, and nodded repeatedly: "En, um!"
But the development of things is always so unexpected.
On September 10, the total sales volume of Cui Zhengzhi's "Hot Fire" was 82,584 copies, a significant drop.
To the astonishment of many people, the total sales of Lu Chen's "You at the Same Table" actually reached 102,560 copies, counterattacking the upper ranks and reaching the top of the weekly sales list of Feixun Music Network, and it is far ahead of its opponents.
Compared with the first day, his sales drop is so low that it is incredible!
Although many insiders who were paying attention to this rookie showdown were already mentally prepared for Lu Chen's victory over Cui Zhengzhi, they were also very surprised to see how quickly the latter counterattacked the top position.
Sales of 100,000 in 48 hours are not only aiming for a total sales of 300,000, but also aiming for the [Platinum Record] of 500,000!
Lu Chen's ambition is too big!
On blogs, forums, and post bars, the voices of comments and discussions immediately increased.
Some people insisted that Lu Chen must have spent a lot of money to buy the list, and they didn't believe that "You at the Same Table" could sell so well.
Some people also think that the possibility of Lu Chen buying the list is very small, and "You at the Same Table" sold well because of its excellent quality.
Some people are jealous of his success, while others laugh at Cui Zhengzhi's failure.
They even dug out Cui Zhengzhi's interview video.
And the most controversial one was the member forum of Feixun Music Network, which was already full of quarrels!
As the largest music website in China, the Feixun music forum has gathered a large number of pop music lovers. The duel between the four new talents this month has long been a hot topic.
By the 10th, the total sales volume of Ling Xiaoxiao's solo album "True Love Is Invincible" was only 60,000+, and the subsequent sales plummeted, making people doubt whether this album can reach the standard of "Golden Record" in the end.
And his album's evaluation on the website is very low, and the member's score is only 6.4 points, which is barely a pass.
Considering that he is very likely to spend money to buy the list, the actual score will only be lower!
The situation of Zou Bei's "Blooming Flowers" is much better. On the 10th, the total sales volume exceeded 90,000, and the evaluation score was 8.1 points. It should be said that the reputation is not bad, and it has lived up to the title of talented woman.
Whether it is Ling Xiaoxiao or Zou Bei, there are no hot topics worth talking about, so now the focus is mainly on the two albums of Lu Chen and Cui Zhengzhi.
In the comment area of the main post of the weekly sales list, people from all walks of life fought fiercely, including Cui Zhengzhi's fans, Lu Chen's fans, passerby fans of both sides, and a large number of onlookers.
Feixun tourist 00567: Your sales at the same table are too fake, who would believe in water, you idiot!
The second generation of Huskies: The most stupid upstairs!
Blue Sky: Laughing and touching the dog head upstairs, I bought Lu Chen's album, but I don't like Cui Zhengzhi.
Wooden ears: Cui Zhengzhi's provocative is not bad, but this album is enough to listen to this song, it's not worth buying.
Xiaozhi is the best: My Zhengzhi Ouba is the best, please don't show up with Lu Chen's navy, please? Thanks!
AK47: Hehe, how about some stick powder? Thanks!
The End of the World: I bought both albums. To be fair, Lu Chen is better than Cui Zhengzhi. You all have to check the album ratings to find out, and "Hot" has bought the charts, "You at the same table" has not. purchase!
Popeye: Really or not? "Hotfire" bought the list, so didn't Cui Zhengzhi lose miserably
Cheng Cheng Love: Nonsense!
Lost in the End of the World: Am I talking nonsense? You can see it with your own eyes, click on the ratings and comments, and it will be clear!
…
All albums or singles sold on Feixun Music can be scored and evaluated by purchasing members. The high or low score means the quality of word-of-mouth.
So far, "You at the Same Table" has a score of 9.2, and "Hotfire" is 8.5.
It seems that the gap between the two is not very big, only 0.7.
But you must know that due to the phenomenon of buying the list, it is normal to brush up the score by the way, and the website does not care.
Because spending money is the uncle, and naturally enjoys privileges.
But as long as you have the heart to explore, you will find the problem from these member ratings and comments.
You can also find out the mystery of the different sales of the two albums.
When the tide goes out, it will be clear who is swimming naked!
