Chapter 502 The first triple platinum record in the mainland
If it is possible to manipulate digital albums on the Internet, then in real life, the sales of offline physical records are simply not hydrated in today's society.
Because physical record sales have always been bad, there is no profit at all.
Just like the author publishes a physical book, it is basically a loss-making business and making a profit.
While online sales are booming, within a week, Xu Yuan and Meng Xiaoxuan's super album "We" has left an indelible and amazing mark in the Chinese music scene.
The first triple platinum record in the mainland was born!
And the momentum is still soaring, and it hasn't stopped!
What is a platinum record called?
What is the standard for a platinum record?
What is this thing for? What does it mean?
Today's young people may be puzzled.
Because of this method, online music has become the mainstream music now. But those who have experienced that physical music era will understand how terrifying the mainland three platinums are.
In the Treasure Island area, the standard for gold records is 20,000 and platinum records are 40,000.
In the Xiangjiang area, the standard for gold records is 25,000 copies, and platinum albums are 50,000 copies.
The three platinum records sold 120,000 and 150,000 copies respectively.
But in the mainland, because of the population base, this data has to be doubled several times.
The standard for gold records in the mainland is 500,000 copies!
The standard for platinum records is one million copies!
And three platinum is three million sheets!
Three million copies!
This is an unprecedented super sales in the mainland!
Counting the past, even in the peak years of physical records, in the nineties, million-level records were rare. Moreover, almost all of them are counted as total records sold in Asia.
Xue Youge's "Kiss Goodbye" swept across Asia that year, with a total sales of more than 5 million copies, and is known as the most unsurpassable super album in the music industry.
After that, Andy's "Stupid Child", Xiuwen's "Worthy", Wang Feifei's "You Are Happy, So I Happy" and other super records are also at the sales level of one, two, three or four million.
Note, however, that these are all Asian sales.
In the mainland, this number is probably still stuck at hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands.
Why?
Because in the golden years of records, the economy of the mainland has not yet risen, so although the population base is large, the sales are not strong, far less than the Xiangjiang and Baodao regions in China, as well as the cold and neon countries of crooked fruits, and even Southeast Asia.
And when the mainland becomes rich, the Internet era has come.
On the one hand, there is crazy piracy.
After the years of piracy, it was because of the increase in the price of various materials and labor, which led to a crazy rise in the price of physical records, compared with online albums, which was five or ten times worse!
Physical records, almost lost the soil for survival.
At this time, not to mention hitting higher record sales, even if it is to maintain the original level, it will not be possible. The record industry was on the verge of death in an instant, a large number of record companies went bankrupt, and countless popular musicians had to develop new ways to make money.
The times create heroes, and many music superstars who can't adapt have fallen, but there are also more new stars in the music world who have successfully emerged.
In this kind of stall, only a few people such as Jay Lun or only him can maintain or even increase the crazy sales record of physical records.
This is also the reason why Jay Lun successfully stepped into the superstar before the age of 35 and created a miracle in the music world.
And now, a new myth has been born!
No one thought that in this era, the mainland could still give birth to the unattainable triple platinum record.
Xu Yuan is really supernatural this time.
Blow!
Crazy blow!
The major media did not follow the process at all and began to blow wildly.
In particular, the mainland music media is simply arrogant.
is saying that the mainland has stood up, and its status in the entertainment industry has gradually become the center, but there has been a lack of evidence. Even if the salary of your mainland artists is much higher than that of artists in other regions, what about the real top works?
As long as the work has not been surpassed, and there is no continuous explosion of high-quality products, it will never stand up.
Therefore, since the integration of the Chinese entertainment industry in the past few years, the progress has not been smooth.
The biggest problem is that the style of stars in Hong Kong and Taiwan is still high, taking up face. And the salaries of mainland stars are soaring wildly, and no one can suppress anyone.
Until the appearance of Xu Yuan and Meng Xiaoxuan.
has given the mainland entertainment industry a trump card in all aspects, whether it is music, TV dramas, variety shows, or even movies.
Most of Xu Yuan and Meng Xiaoxuan's works are taken to compete with the top works of the golden age of Hong Kong and Taiwan, and they are not afraid, each has its own merits, it is a classic, and it can also overwhelm an era.
It's just that Hong Kong and Taiwan's works are in the 80s, 90s, and early 21st century.
And Xu Yuan and Meng Xiaoxuan, it is now that they are pressing.
Mainland entertainment industry, live in the present!
Moreover, it's only been a week now.
Can you imagine the eventual sales of this record?
Three platinum, definitely not the sales limit of "Us".
Five hundred gold?
Seven platinum?
Even a diamond record that has never appeared in the mainland!
In the future, there are countless blind thoughts.
Compared with the grand occasion of the mainland media and fan circles, the Golden Melody Awards Organizing Committee is embarrassing.
Originally, Xu Yuan was used as a gun to deal with that sister this year, and everyone was unhappy. In addition, Xu Meng and the others swept the Golden Melody Awards for two consecutive years, which almost made the awards lose their competitiveness.
In the long run, this is not a good thing.
Everyone plans to snipe Xu Mengbo this year.
But according to the current trend, Xu Meng is afraid that it is the general trend.
In the mainland music scene, I'm afraid there will be a miracle.
But at most this year, put up with the two of them for the last time.
It's just three things, the Chinese Golden Melody Awards can never be four consecutive years, they are all the same theme.
......
The album was a big hit, and Xu Yuan naturally wanted to say hello to all his collaborators.
At the same time, the whereabouts of the proceeds from the sale of the album and the operation of the dark horse fund will also be disclosed, and everything is purely transparent.
This is confidence, but also conscience.
It also further promotes the public's enthusiasm for buying.
The sales of "We" are still growing rapidly.
This phenomenon has aroused strong concern from the international community.
For a long time, the decline of the record industry has been a pain that the international entertainment industry can't bear to mention.
The era of millions of records is gone, and compared with the ability to attract money from online albums and physical records, although not to mention sprinkling water, it does make many people have no food.
How many people does a record feed from a music company, producer, distributor, roadside store, etc.?
And for an online record, in addition to the three giants of online music, who else can make a profit? The distributor has to give the lion's share, and it is slaughtered by big platforms such as Penguin, Huang Yiyun, and Ali Mama.
And now in the East, a super record has suddenly appeared, could it be that the record industry has recovered?
The international media rushed over to learn from the advanced experience.
At the same time, it is also crazy propaganda, trying to advocate the theory of record revival, and lay a good foundation for the future recreation of the record boom.
Regardless of whether their foundation is solid or not, whether the earth will shake in the future.
But now, Xu Yuan is benefiting.
Hua Guo Xu, Hua Guo Meng, once again resounded through Omi, resounding all over the world.
And Avril and Mei Mei, the popularity has soared again and again, and they have surpassed the momentum of their competitors. This is the first time they have hugged someone else's thigh and become Xu Yuan's leg pendant.
In the past, it was they who led others.
The flowers bloom at two ends, one on each branch.
The album was a big hit, and the box office also came with the final good news.
When the statistical results came out, the national media lost their voices for a while.
