361. Celebration Banquet
In the telephone receiver, Shu Qian's wheezing voice fluctuated.
She asked Chen Zhe excitedly: "Chen Zhe...... Call...... Chen Zhe...... You guess...... Scold...... Guess how many copies of our album were pre-sold?"
Hearing this question, Chen Zhe couldn't help but smile.
Judging from Shu Qian's reaction, the pre-sale of the new album must be very amazing, if it weren't for this, Shu Qian wouldn't be so excited.
Her previous album sales were probably less than 800,000 copies, and the quality of this "Look at Me 72 Changes" is better than her previous album sales, so the sales estimate may also be higher.
A million copies sold should be the company's estimate of the album.
But judging from Shu Qian's current reaction, the sales of this album have significantly exceeded estimates, that is, they are far more than one million copies.
Considering the previous world, the sales of "Look at Me 72 Changes" were two million copies, so Chen Zhe guessed that the pre-sale sales of this world were in the range of one million and two million copies.
So he guessed, "A hundred...... 500,000?"
After Chen Zhe finished talking about this sales, Shu Qian in the mobile phone was silent for a moment.
Chen Zhe was curious: "Hmm, why don't you speak?"
Only then did Shu Qian sigh with emotion: "One and a half million, Chen Zhe, do you really dare to guess......"
"What? Isn't your guess wrong?" Chen Zhe asked curiously.
However, Shu Qian immediately said: "No...... You've guessed it very accurately, we have 1.9 million pre-orders for the album! 400,000 more than you guessed! Based on past sales experience, the album is likely to sell 3 million to 4 million in the end! Do you know what the concept is? We're going to make history! We're going to do miracles!"
Before the pre-sale amount came out, Shu Qian had been in a state of uneasiness, because this album was an important turning point in determining her future prospects, and she could not afford to fail in the slightest.
And when she saw the pre-sale amount of the album, she was going crazy with joy, she hugged her and her agent and cried, and she really shed tears.
At this time, Yan'er next to Chen Zhe also came over curiously, and she had already heard Shu Qian's scream on her mobile phone.
"Shu Qian's new album...... 1.9 million copies were sold in pre-sales?" asked Yan'er in disbelief.
"Yes!" Chen Zhe smiled and nodded, "The pre-sale alone has sold 1.9 million copies, which is still the data that has only been sold for eighteen hours, and there should be a wave of rises in the future...... Selling two million copies is not a dream. ”
"Doesn't that mean that you can get a million just for the pre-sale share?" Yan'er asked again in shock.
Chen Zhe's money is too easy to make.
Shu Qian, who was on the other side of the phone, also said: "Yes, yes, Chen Zhe, you are too bold, you are too prescient! I also said that I would give you the treatment of a first-line musician in the industry, thanks to your resolute decision to transfer to the share, now only the pre-sale score is 1 million, all the sales are sold, you still have to take 2 million?"
You're getting 1 million more than the first-line musicians! 1.4 million more than the buyout price the company decided to give you! You're amazing!"
Chen Zhe smiled lightly and said: "I said a long time ago, I am very confident in this album, and the value of this album is far more than one or two million can cover.
Shu Qian, congratulations, after this album is fully sold, you will win the position of diva. ”
"Heaven, Queen......"
Shu Qian said dumbfoundedly, her tone trembling strongly.
Before calling, Shu Qian only thought about how many copies of this album had been sold, and she hadn't thought too far ahead, but now that Chen Zheyi said it, Shu Qian suddenly realized.
She is now a first-line singer, and each of her previous albums has sold more than 800,000 copies, and now this album has directly set a sales record, isn't she a diva?
She's a real diva now!
As long as she has the aura of "diva", not to mention far away, she will never be out of breath within three or five years, so that the life of her career will be directly extended backwards for a long distance, which is simply cool.
"Am I a diva? am I really a diva?"
Shu Qian asked in a trembling voice, almost unable to believe this reality.
"Of course it's the diva. Chen Zhe smiled and said, "Congratulations, Shu Qian." ”
"Ah...... Chen Zhe, great......" Shu Qian screamed with joy, "It's all your credit, it's all ...... I must thank you for your merits and repay you well. ”
Chen Zhe said with a smile: "Don't worry about repaying me, just pay me all the money." You can calm down and don't get too excited, you know?"
"Okay, okay......" Shu Qian's breathing became more and more rapid, obviously a little overexcited.
Chen Zhe quickly hung up her phone, lest she faint because she was too excited.
Putting down the phone, Yan'er also walked over with a smile.
"Brother Xiao Chen, you are really amazing. She said seriously, "The book is so good, and the album is so good......
Chen Zhe smiled: "Thank you for the compliment, but what you said is right." Your little brother Chen is indeed very powerful. ”
Yan'er grabbed Chen Zhe's arm and shook it lightly and coquettishly said: "Then can you hurry up and update "Dou Po Qiankun" after eating, I am still anxious to see Chen Xiaozhe promoted to the Great Dou Master......
"Okay, okay......" Chen Zhe had no choice but to nod.
He regretted a little that he brought Yan'er to the big pit of "Fighting the Universe".
Now there is a reader who gets along closely, and every day face-to-face reminders, Chen Zhe can't take a lazy break for a few days.
"Oh, this is really a big ......head," Chen Zhe complained secretly in his heart.
……
A few days later.
When Chen Zhe continued to move furniture to his new home, Shu Qian, who was successfully promoted to "diva", appeared at his door coldly.
Anyway, everyone is a neighbor, and it is not uncommon to visit the door, from Shu Qian's house to Chen Zhe's house, but it is only a four- or five-minute walk.
"Chen Zhe, my great benefactor!"
As soon as she entered the door, she babbled, and couldn't help but hug Chen Zhe's arm, stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the face.
Chen Zhe was a little overwhelmed by her enthusiastic offensive, and hurriedly said with a smile: "You're a bit too exaggerated, aren't you?"
"It's not an exaggeration, it's not an exaggeration at all, if it weren't for your album, I might be out of breath by now...... But as soon as this album is released, I will definitely be nominated for this year's Golden Microphone Award. Shu Qian said optimistically.
Chen Zhe said in his heart - not only will he be nominated, but I'm afraid he will have to win awards and get soft, right? In another parallel world, the album "Look at Me 72 Changes" won awards and got soft.
And at the same time as this album, there are some very good albums, relatively speaking, there is no one in the current world who can play.
"By the way, our company will hold an internal celebration banquet tonight, will you come along?" Shu Qian said with a smile, "I came here to invite you." ”
"Is it appropriate for me to go to the celebration banquet within your company?" asked Chen Zhe with a smile.
"What's inappropriate?" Shu Qian said, then showed a sly smile and whispered, "Do you remember the music director, Sister Meng?"
"Of course, I remember that the one who insisted on giving me an offer for a second-tier musician was ready to send me with 600,000 yuan. Chen Zhe said.
Shu Qian smiled darkly and said, "Now you have taken one million just for the pre-sale share, and the follow-up remuneration will definitely be more...... I'd love to see what she looks like when she sees you. ”
Hearing this, Chen Zhe couldn't cry or laugh.
"It turns out that you invited me to the celebration banquet just to see Sister Meng being slapped in the face by me?"
"No, no...... I really want to thank you. Shu Qian said with a smile, "But I do want to see her slapped in the face, hehe......"
couldn't stand Shu Qian's soft grinding and hard bubbles, Chen Zhe still participated in the company's celebration banquet with her in the evening, and this time it was not only those in her team who celebrated Shu Qian's achievements, but also several other singers from the same company.
Wu Meiqi, a young high-quality idol who participated in wilderness survival together and debuted through a talent show, also participated in this celebration banquet.
Chen Zhe also learned at this time that Wu Meiqi and Shu Qian were from the same company.
"No wonder they both live in the same community. Chen Zhe said suddenly in his heart.
As soon as she arrived at the venue, Shu Qian took Chen Zhe to meet Wu Meiqi.
In private, Wu Meiqi has expressed several times that she wants to meet Chen Zhe and thank Chen Zhe in person for saving his life on the island.
Today's Wu Meiqi wore a black backless evening dress, and a pair of seven-centimeter high heels inlaid with broken diamonds on her feet, standing in the center of the venue, Wu Meiqi's appearance was quite glamorous, and even somewhat overshadowed tonight's protagonist Shu Qian.
However, the styles of the two are not the same - Shu Qian takes the route of a sexy and sunny young girl, and Wu Meiqi is a gentle and celebrity. So when two people stand together, no one will overpower anyone, but they will only complement each other.
Seeing Chen Zhe, Wu Meiqi's beautiful eyes immediately flashed with bright brilliance.
She stepped on her long legs and stepped on her high heels, and walked slowly like Ling Bo's microsteps.
"Chen Zhe!"
She happily called Chen Zhe's name, and the corners of her mouth showed obvious joy.
"Maggie, long time no see. Chen Zhe smiled elegantly, and at the same time gently stretched out his hand to hold Wu Meiqi's hand.
The high heels she wears are too high, and she will walk unsteadily, and Chen Zhe takes the initiative to hold her hand to help her maintain her balance.
The white hand like mutton fat and jade was held in his hand, Chen Zhe only felt that the palm of his hand was cold, presumably because the air conditioning in the venue was turned on too much, and Wu Meiqi's little hand was cold.
"Long time no see. She smiled and said to Chen Zhe, "I've always wanted to treat you to a meal before, thank you for saving me on the island...... It's a pity that I've been busy all this time, and I can't find time. Sorry ha. ”
Wu Meiqi's career is on the rise, and there is new work to deal with almost every day, which Chen Zhe also knows, so he will not blame her for anything.
Besides, it was a complete coincidence to save her on the island at the beginning, not to mention any "kindness", Chen Zhe would not regard himself as Wu Meiqi's "life-saving benefactor", and he didn't take it seriously if he didn't thank him or anything.
"At the beginning, it was just a gesture, not enough to worry about. Chen Zhe smiled, "You can just be busy with yourself, we can eat this meal at any time." By the way, everyone will be neighbors in the future, and sooner or later we will be able to meet one day. ”
"That's right......" Wu Meiqi remembered at this time, and immediately showed a charming smile, "Then it will be convenient in the future, and you can visit the door often when you have time." ”
"Yes. Chen Zhe nodded.
At this time, Wu Meiqi said again: "That's good, when I have time in the future, how about I personally cook a table of good dishes for you?"
"You can also cook?" Chen Zhe was shocked.
In his impression, high-quality idols like Wu Meiqi should be ten fingers that do not touch the spring water.
"Uh...... Could it be like Shu Qian, who said that he could cook, but it turned out that he was just cooking instant noodles?" asked Chen Zhe vigilantly.
"Of course not...... Wu Meiqi smiled bitterly, "I've seen Sister Shu Qian's cooking, but I really don't dare to ...... Ahem...... Don't dare to compliment. My cooking skills are different from hers, don't worry. ”
"Then I'm relieved. Chen Zhe said with a smile.
Just as they were chatting here, Shu Qian walked over quickly, dragged Chen Zhe and said, "Sister Meng is here! Sister Meng is here!"
Chen Zhe looked up and saw that the music director, Sister Meng, was walking in from the main entrance, although there was a smile on her face, but this smile was not as bright as others.
There is no doubt that Chen Zhe's "buyout and re-sharing" operation directly caught her off guard, and she must be regretting it now, so the higher the sales of the album, the more uncomfortable she is.
At this time, Shu Qian, who had a black belly, dragged Chen Zhe and said, "Let's go, Chen Zhe, let's go say hello to her." ”
Chen Zhe was speechless: "Shu Qian, it's not appropriate to fall into the well like this, right?"
"What's the matter? I like to beat the water dogs!" Shu Qian laughed, dragged Chen Zhe and walked towards Sister Meng.
Chen Zhe couldn't help laughing, and whispered: "I'm really convinced of you, Shu Qian...... They are all divas, can they be more stable?"
The two of them walked to Sister Meng's side, and then pretended to meet Sister Meng calmly.
Sister Meng was greeting the people next to her, and Leng Buding looked up and saw Shu Qian and Chen Zhe.
"Yo, Sister Meng!" Shu Qian said with a smile, "It's a coincidence." ”
Chen Zhe also smiled and said, "Coincidentally, Sister Meng." ”
Sister Meng looked up and saw Shu Qian, but it was nothing, but when she saw Chen Zhe, her face turned sallow on the spot.
Chen Chen...... Belch...... Teacher Xiao Chen, are you here too?" After all, she is a musician who has created a sales record for Shu Qian, and Sister Meng doesn't dare to be disrespectful to Chen Zhe now, even if she is in a bad mood, she has to be called "Teacher Xiao Chen".
Chen Zhe smiled lightly and nodded, "Sister Meng." ”
After Sister Meng said hello, she was ready to flee.
Unexpectedly, Shu Qian smiled and said: "Sister Meng is still generous, and directly signed a sharing contract for Teacher Xiao Chen, if you listen to me to buy out Teacher Xiao Chen, it will really be a loss to him......"
