Chapter 166: Signing Meeting
In addition to hitting the music radio charts, Zheng Qian has recorded a variety show, a talk show, and then the shooting of magazine covers, as well as promotional posters and so on.
Zheng Qian really realized his huge popularity.
Wherever he went, he automatically became the center of attention of the crowd.
The water army in the Hong Kong discussion area has long been withdrawn, but the tap water is gathering more and more, and gradually forming a huge fan group.
Every day, fans search for and discuss Zheng Qian's songs in major online communities, which makes Zheng Qian's popularity and popularity like a volcanic eruption, and it continues.
Although he has not yet become a real superstar, he already has the popularity of a first-line singer.
In the past few days in Hong Kong, many jewelers and luxury brands want to cooperate with Zheng Qian to launch related promotional activities, but because of the tight time, they have been temporarily shelved by Zheng Qian.
Marketing Director Chen Zongze also specially equipped Zheng Qian with a group of security, a total of eight people, each of whom is sturdy, just wearing sunglasses, no one loves it, and when rushing to the event, the security guards escorted the whole process and refused to allow anyone to approach Zheng Qian within two meters.
If this is a dog blood spray that has been scolded in later generations, but it is very accustomed to it now.
Zheng Qian originally thought that Chen Zongze was making a big fuss, but it wasn't until many female fans forcibly bumped and hugged him in order to "take advantage" that the frightened Zheng Qian immediately agreed.
It's so TM thrilling!
I can bear it with my waist, but my buttocks are pinched......
Soon, two days passed.
On Monday, Zheng Qian went to the Hong Kong headquarters of Forest Records to meet with the store manager, Lin Yadong.
In the coming week, Zheng Qian will hold book signing sessions in multiple regions throughout Southeast Asia, each of which will last about two hours.
Forest Records is just the first stop.
"Happy birthday, I wish the record a big sale again!"
Lin Yadong smiled and arched his hand, and pointed to the line downstairs as he spoke: "It seems that the fans are very enthusiastic, it's only eight o'clock, and there are already so many people." ”
Zheng Qian had already seen it when he came, and said with a smile: "Everyone in the circle says that Mr. Lin is a blessed land here, and it seems that the rumors are true!"
Ordinary singers are not qualified to hold a signing party at the Forest Records Main Store, Zheng Qian was able to come here, one is that it has been coordinated by Universal Records, and the other is that Zheng Qian's last EP album was really crazy, and it was almost out of stock after being reprinted many times in a row, which gave Lin Yadong a deep impression.
Lin Ya Dongguan smiled: "It's all singers who love each other, but the singers who can hold a signing session in our Forest Record General Store are indeed not ordinary, such as Qianzai!"
After Zheng Qian and Lin Yadong finished blowing each other's business, they began to prepare for the signing meeting.
At the same time, in front of the Forest Records door.
In the long line like a dragon, Dai Junsheng rubbed his hands a little nervously and excitedly, his face full of anticipation
His online name is "April Xinfan", originally an ordinary office worker, occasionally surfing the Internet, until one day, he came into contact with a mysterious organization, saying that after posting can get money, he made nearly ten accounts, posted wildly in major online communities, popularized "Zheng Qian's" works and personal information to passers-by, etc.
In this process, because he repeatedly praised Zheng Qian and listened to the songs of the album "Qianqian Gongzi" countless times, he was directly brainwashed by self-sufficiency, and then he fell madly like all of Zheng Qian's works.
After the mission, he alone received 6,000 Hong Kong dollars, but this is not the most important thing, the important thing is that he, like many people, has become a die-hard fan of Zheng Qian in the process of constantly posting and discussing.
These die-hard fans have come together to form an "invincible" force.
On the Internet, whenever someone slanders Zheng Qian, this force frantically conducts all kinds of persuasion and brainwashing to slander people, and even a bad incident occurred during the period, because someone photoshopped Zheng Qian's ugly photos, causing some die-hard fans to make some radical moves, and there are still people squatting in the class room.
Of course, the problem is not big, and it is mainly educational.
However, this incident has made many netizens angry, in the face of this force, even if they look down on Zheng Qian, A Can from the mainland, at least no one mentions the relevant insults on the surface.
In addition to Dai Junsheng, who came to line up to buy the first album today, there is also a group of like-minded friends on the Internet.
Everyone is basically a user of the "discussion forum", and today they formed a group to buy Zheng Qian's album, and according to their respective agreements, each person bought at least ten copies at a time.
"Let Humility see the purchasing power of our Hong Kong compatriots!"
"Yes, let Qianshen know that Hong Kong is also an important market, and Qianshen can't always be active in the mainland......"
"I'm going to buy a hundred, purely for collection!"
"Wow, Ah Zhen is amazing!"
Dai Junsheng looked at the slightly chubby girl next to him and said that he was slightly fat, but in fact, in the eyes of men, this kind of figure is the top good, and her appearance is also very pure, wearing a baseball cap and a ponytail dangling, which makes people's eyes hot.
This time, everyone met offline, and Ah Zhen was almost the focus of the audience, and all the males were enthusiastic.
Dai Junsheng was no exception, at this time, when he heard that Ah Zhen wanted to buy a hundred, his mind suddenly became hot, and he said: "Then I will buy a hundred too!
Ah Zhen glanced at Dai Junsheng with some surprise, and said happily: "April, from now on, you are my friend!"
Seeing this, the others all looked at the new Dai Junsheng in April with envy.
Some people also want to be arrogant, but in the end, they still have some restraint and are not carried away by emotions.
Dai Junsheng looked at Ah Zhen's smile and was moved.
"Walking on the Road of Life" is priced at 89 yuan for an album.
This price is already very cheap, it is said that in Japan and South Korea and other places, it costs hundreds of yuan.
Moreover, if you are a VIP member of Forest Records, you can also enjoy some discounts, totaling almost 75 yuan a piece, and if you buy a hundred copies, you need 7,500 Hong Kong dollars.
That's a lot of money, almost half a month's salary.
But Dai Junsheng didn't think much about it.
Because he got more than 6,000 yuan as a water army!
Add another 1,000 yuan, just a hundred, wet and broken!
It's worth it to get the favor of the goddess!
Approaching nine o'clock, in the hall on the first floor of Forest Records, under the leadership of the staff, Zheng Qian walked to the signing table, smiled and waved to the fans in line, causing a scream, and the signing officially began.
Zheng Qian's signature dragon flying phoenix dance is an artistic font.
In fact, he can't read it himself, and the whole thing is like a ghost drawing, but it doesn't prevent him from signing, in addition to giving people the illusion of not knowing it, it also improves the speed of signing.
Every time he signed a signing, Zheng Qian would stretch out his hand to thank the fans, and the feedback he received was strange.
Some screamed, some cheered, some giggled, and some spoke incoherently with excitement......
Occasionally, there will be special requests from fans when signing autographs, and Zheng Qian tried his best to agree, but the efficiency was slowed down too much, so Chen Zongze thought of a way to treat customers who bought more than ten tickets.
Who knows that everyone doesn't seem to be bad for money, and ten tickets are only nearly a thousand yuan.
But the fans said they would buy it, which directly made the whole team drive even slower.
You must know that the average monthly salary in Hong Kong is over 10,000 Hong Kong dollars, and last year's per capita income reached 13,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is completely the level of developed countries.
However, Hong Kong's development has now reached a bottleneck, and even in 10 or 20 years, the salary will not be much different from today.
As for the rumors that Hong Kong dishwashers earn as much as 20,000 Hong Kong dollars a month, although they are exaggerated, they are not much different.
However, Hong Kong's prices and housing prices are among the highest in the world.
At the end of the last century, including the beginning of this century, there were still a large number of Hong Kong people who could not afford to buy a house in Shenzhen, and the early housing prices in Shenzhencheng were completely supported by this group of people.
The affluence of Hong Kong people, coupled with the impact of Hong Kong films, has also made many people in the mainland flock to Hong Kong.
However, Hong Kong does not recognize mainland undergraduate degrees at present, unless it is a key prestigious school similar to 985 or 211 such as Shuimu, Beijing University, Fudan University, etc., otherwise it is almost always treated as a secondary school degree.
This has put many people off.
At the beginning, Zheng Qian's father Zheng Wei's academic qualifications were not recognized, but Zheng Wei did not hang himself on a tree, but became a fallen father, and for a period of time he also made a lot of money.
In general, the current consumption level of Hong Kong citizens far exceeds that of mainland people, and it is really trivial to buy ten albums!
But this is bitter for Zheng Qian.
The signature pen in his hand kept waving, and just after an hour, his middle finger was a little uncomfortable, and he felt a faint pain.
He adjusted appropriately, smiling and talking to the fans, while constantly signing his name on the album cover.
Soon, Ah Zhen and his party came to the front.
Looking at the whole hundred stacks in front of him, Zheng Qian wanted to cry.
Seeing this, Ah Zhen chuckled: "Mr. Zheng, happy birthday, it's OK to sign two tickets casually, please write 'To dear Ah Zhen'......"
Zheng Qian agreed, and quickly waved it on the cover, in order to take care of the Hong Kong citizens, he still wrote traditional characters, which was extremely intimate, which made Ah Zhen very moved.
Later, she excitedly asked for a group photo.
She brought a DSLR camera.
Zheng Qian agreed again.
After the group photo, Ah Zhen said excitedly: "Mr. Zheng, I especially want to hear your concert, please be sure to hold one in Hong Kong!"
Chen Zongze, who was next to him, heard this, and said with a smile: "Miss, don't worry, in terms of concerts, our company is already planning." ”
When Ah Zhen heard this, she shouted Yes, and when she left, she asked Zheng Qian for a loving hug.
And Zheng Qian didn't sign two perfunctory tickets casually as Ah Zhen said.
He directly signed ten -
This doesn't seem so perfunctory.
Then, Dai Junsheng's stack of records was placed in front of him again.
Because I bought enough of them, Forest Records also thoughtfully gave away a delicate brand backpack.
But when Zheng Qian saw these records, he felt trembling in his heart.
How to drop, Hong Kong people are also popular purchasing?
Zheng Qian opened his mouth and wanted to say something.
Dai Junsheng waved his hand and smiled toothily: "Qianshen, you can also give me the first two, we are together." ”
When Zheng Qian heard the title of "Qianshen", he was a little stunned for a while.
How can this still become a god?
He couldn't help but think of God E, and he was also a little drifting.
After reacting, Zheng Qian smiled: "Thank you so much for your support!"
As he spoke, he began to sign.
As time passed, Zheng Qian felt that not only his fingers, but also his wrists were a little sore, and he felt troubled and worried about the next trip.
According to Universal Music's requirements, Zheng Qian had to go to Japan, South Korea, Thailand, Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, and Vietnam to hold book signings, and he had to travel to one place every day on average.
Finally, it is necessary to carry out relevant signing activities in the mainland.
Originally, Taiwan was also included, but because of the identity of Zheng Qian's art troupe, the relevant regulations were touched, so the relevant itinerary was temporarily canceled.
This is the strength of large companies, not only in Hong Kong, Universal Music has branches and offices throughout Southeast Asia, as soon as Zheng Qian lands, there will be relevant departments to cooperate, and immediately launch signing activities, and will not even give artists too much time to rest.
This is something that many artists dream of, but Zheng Qian suddenly felt tired and didn't love it.
He felt that this was not efficient, it was completely formalistic, and except for Hong Kong and the mainland, Zheng Qian felt that his popularity in other countries was not as high as Universal Music imagined, so there was no need for these countries to hold book signings.
But Chen Zongze told him with research data that there are not a few humble fans in these countries.
Some of them became fans of Zheng Qian because of the album "Humble Son".
But more because the show "Chinese Idol" is very popular throughout Southeast Asia and has a huge viewership.
And Zheng Qian's performance in the show really made countless people fall for it and became an idol in the hearts of foreign friends.
Zheng Qian felt a little incredible.
After the signing meeting, because today is also Zheng Qian's 23rd birthday, the store manager Lin Yadong prepared a mille-feuille cake for Zheng Qian on the spot, which of course was not for eating, but for taking pictures and publicity.
Therefore, Zheng Qian also invited Lin Yadong to cut the cake together, and several professional photographers next to him quickly pressed the shutter button of the camera in their hands.
Zheng Qian took a bite of the cake and tasted it.
The sweet and greasy taste made Zheng Qian a little uncomfortable, and he hadn't eaten sweets for a long time.
After the signing session, Zheng Qian was interviewed by Hong Kong's "Oriental Daily" in a café under the arrangement of Universal Music.
The interview reporter is a middle-aged lady named Ah Lan.
She was holding a voice recorder, and when she saw Zheng Qian, her eyes lit up and were terrifying.
"I'm actually a fan of Zheng Qian, and I'm honored that you can be interviewed by me. ”
Ah Lan has the temperament of an urban modern girl, and gently stroked her long wavy hair, and then turned on the voice recorder.
After a few words of greeting with Zheng Qian, the interview officially entered the main topic.
Ah Lan first asked Zheng Qian about his musical talent when he was a child, praised it, and then looked back on Zheng Qian's years of hard work in South Korea.
"Do you remember what your first love looked like?"
