Chapter 125: Releasing an album

After the filming, the crew of "The Promotion of the Crown Princess", both the staff and the actors, recognized Qin Feng's existence.

Even, with his superb and excellent acting skills, Qin Feng also conquered other actors in the same crew.

For a while, Qin Feng was in the limelight of the crew, and he was unbeatable for a while.

After a period of time, the crew and crew are familiar with each other, so the filming progress has also accelerated a lot.

And Qin Feng's shots in these days, the key shots have almost been shot.

On January 8, 2011, with Lu Ji's "Qi Sheng is finished!", Qin Feng was officially finished, and a group of actors came over to take a group photo.

This is Qin Feng's first time acting, and after the first finale, there were so many photos with him, Qin Feng was still a little excited in his heart.

Other than that, there is nothing special about it.

But after all, it was Qin Feng's first film, and seeing that the filming was completed so quickly, Qin Feng was still very reluctant in his heart.

But there is nothing to say goodbye, the entertainment industry is so big, there is always a time to say goodbye.

After packing his luggage and greeting everyone, Qin Feng returned to Beijing.

After Qin Feng returned to Beijing, he immediately went to the studio, ready to start working on his first album.

Since the end of "I Am a Singer", other guests have either released new albums or attended various events, making money like crazy, but Qin Feng, who won the championship, has no news at all.

It wasn't until passers-by took photos of him filming in Hengdian and uploaded them to the Internet that netizens learned that he had gone to acting, and there was a lot of discussion on the Internet for a while, and everyone felt that Qin Feng was not doing his job.

Before he gained a firm foothold in the music world, he wanted to go to the film and television industry, and countless netizens felt that he was floating.

And after getting to know the director of this crew, Qin Feng has received countless ridicule, the male number one of a low-cost online drama, the director is still a novice, and most of the actors are halfway home, such a drama is completely a work on the street.

In this regard, Qin Feng didn't respond to anything, but just promised fans that the first album would be launched soon.

So after coming back, Qin Feng threw himself into work as soon as possible.

Although "I Am a Singer" has been over for a while, Qin Feng is still the hottest singer in China.

Several original songs are still in the top ten of the major lists, while the popularity is still there, Qin Feng naturally doesn't want to wait for a while for the audience's enthusiasm to pass before launching a new album, while the iron is hot.

On the afternoon of the third day after coming back, the equipment in the recording studio was debugged, and Qin Feng entered the recording studio alone, wearing a headset, and started the recording of the first song with the accompaniment.

Until more than ten o'clock in the evening, Qin Feng sang no less than 20 times, some satisfied and some dissatisfied.

The staff extracts the most perfect fragments and synthesizes them into a perfectly interpreted song.

In the past, it was always rumored that a certain singer was playing a big name in the recording studio, but now Qin Feng finally knows the reason.

A song kept being recorded, over and over again, boring and uninteresting.

The recording of the song is far from being as simple as imagined, and it is not like a concert, even if there are some flaws, no one will say anything.

During the recording process, if you are a newcomer, even the slightest mistake may be directly stopped by the producer.

Fortunately, Qin Feng recorded in his own studio, served as his own producer, and listened to it repeatedly after recording, and then continued to record repeatedly.

At night, Qin, who was already tired and couldn't walk, fell asleep directly in the office.

It took two days for Qin Feng to record the samples of the twelve new songs, and after the recording, the twelve songs were recorded on the website of the copyright department.

This is only a preliminary method of copyright protection, once the online version is entered, the copyright will be automatically protected, if someone takes the original manuscript to apply for copyright during this period, the copyright department will also file and appraise.

In the end, according to the appraisal results of the original manuscript produced by both parties, the person who created the earliest time owned the full copyright. The other person needs to go to the court to explain the problem.

In other words, the registration of copyright is actually divided into two steps, online and offline, which can be carried out simultaneously or in batches.

Although the process is cumbersome, each new song has to be filed with the original manuscript.

But this can completely protect the rights of every original creator, and it is still relatively popular in this world.

In the following days, Qin Feng basically spent it in the studio, and half a month passed in a blink of an eye.

In the past half a month, Qin Feng has always insisted on two o'clock and one line, going to the studio to record songs from home in the morning, and coming back to sleep at night, and he is very busy every day.

Now that all the songs have been recorded, Qin Feng needs to keep rushing to different locations in the next week, and then record the MV.

On the fourth day of filming the MV, Qin Feng returned to the studio and came to Ang Lee's office.

'The strongest newcomer Wang Qinfeng, his first original album "Chinese Storm" is about to be released, and the whole network officially opens pre-sale, and the pre-sale time ends two days before the official sale, and the delivery time is the day before the pre-sale.

The three major music websites will launch a comprehensive cooperation with Qin Feng's studio, and among the pre-sale albums, there will be 500 albums with Qin Feng's autograph, and the signed albums will be randomly distributed, looking forward to your good luck. ’

This is a picture introduction to the homepage of the three major music websites in China. After clicking on the picture, you will enter a webpage specially designed for Qin Feng's new album.

There are a few videos on the page, but they were all taken by the Internet while recording the song, and of course, there are also a few lyrics, which are a bit exciting to listen to.

Finally, the addition of the editor's article makes people even more impulsive to buy.

And, best of all, the delivery time will be a day earlier than the exact release. This means that they can get their hands on the new album on the first day of release without having to wait in line.

"How does it look?" In Ang Li's office, in front of the computer, Ang Lee opened the homepage of one of the three major music websites, put the screen in front of Qin Feng, and asked with a smile.

During this time, Qin Feng was busy recording and filming, and the studio was all in charge of Li Anquan, and now it has expanded a little, and there are more than 50 employees.

For Qin Feng's first album, Ang Lee also attaches great importance to it, which is related to the subsequent development of Qin Feng and the studio, so he negotiated with major music websites early.

In the end, it was decided that the three major music websites would be jointly released, and offline would also cooperate with Time Music Co., Ltd., which has a wide range of channels.

Li An's ability is shown in these aspects, which is also the reason why Qin Feng poached him, he is not good at management, he is responsible for the formulation of the general direction, and Li An is responsible for the specific work.

This division of labor has also made the development of the studio very rapid, and after Ang Lee learned about Qin Feng's development blueprint, he was also full of enthusiasm and felt that he had followed the right person.

After clicking on the pre-sale page, Qin Feng clearly saw that so far, more than 100,000 copies of the new album have been pre-sold.

What's more, according to Ang Lee, this advertisement was just put up two hours ago.

It can also be seen that fans are looking forward to Qin Feng's first album.

......

On January 28, 2011, Qin Feng's first original album was officially released.

Beijing, Taobao record store.

Taobao Record Store is a private brand, small in scale, with only three stores in Beijing, and sales are not as large as those giants.

But Taobao record stores have their own advantages, their flagship stores are not small, and they are all in a good location, located in the bustling business center.

Whenever a popular singer releases a new album, there is often a queue of hundreds of meters.

And each time, the owner of the Taobao record store had to go to the mall property and ask the mall to send security guards to maintain order.

At about seven o'clock in the morning, when the employees of the Taobao record store came to work in the store, they were surprised to find that there was already a queue of hundreds of meters outside the store at this moment.

And the team is still increasing rapidly, the black pressure is overwhelming, the scene is very spectacular, and even a little out of control.

The store manager hurriedly reported the situation to the boss, and then rushed to the property to ask for support.

Of course, it is not for nothing, everyone needs to pay 500 yuan a day for hard work. And the 500 yuan, the mall property and security will each get half.

"Alas, man, I don't think there are any big stars releasing albums today?

"We're here to buy Kaede Shao's new album, you shouldn't have one in the store, right?" said the young man who was pulled in surprise, he even couldn't believe it, if there wasn't one here, wouldn't the line be in vain? Now if we go to other places, it would be good to be able to buy it before lunch.

"Feng Shao? Is it Qin Feng's new album? Yes, I took a leave of absence yesterday, and the specific situation is not very clear, as if I heard them say that a batch of new albums came last night. The clerk said confusedly.

"Big brother, you hurry up and go in and take a look, if you have one, open one first and let us listen to it first, it's a big deal that I'll pay for the one that is opened." ”

"That's it, hurry up and open a copy. ”

"I can't wait. ”

"Ruofeng, what did the outsiders tell you just now?Why is it so messy?" As soon as Li Ruofeng entered the store, the store manager hurriedly asked.

"Store manager, they are all here to buy Qin Feng's new album, do we have any goods in the store?" Li Ruofeng looked at the store manager and asked.

"Yes, 10,000 copies came last night. The store manager nodded and pointed to a row of shelves in front of him, where several employees were placing Qin Feng's new album "Chinese Storm" in the most conspicuous position.

"Oh, the people outside are yelling for us to open one and put it down, and they say it's a big deal, they're paying. Li Ruofeng told the store manager about the situation outside just now.

"If they are asked to pay, where will our company's face go? You go and take a copy and open it, and I'll do the accounting later." The store manager smiled and said to Fang Feng.

Every store usually does this, and it's normal to take apart a copy of the latest album and play it.

And the boss also proposed to do this, not to mention that now that there are so many people outside asking for this, the store manager will naturally not be stingy and directly give the order.

Li Ruofeng took an album directly from the shelf, then opened it, the CD player was energized, and the TV on the inside of the storefront glass was also opened.

Soon, the picture of the first song on the album, "Blue and White Porcelain", appeared on the TV, and the originally noisy crowd outside suddenly fell silent.

Although the song has been released for a while, it can't make people feel disgusted, and the more you listen to it, the better it sounds, and the more you listen to it, the more you want to listen to it.

Soon, a song "Blue and White Porcelain" was sung, there was no noise outside the square, no applause, and everyone was waiting for the next song.

Immediately afterward, the screen dimmed for a few seconds, and then the second music video appeared on the TV.

Originally, when the new album was released, it was their most tiring day, and the new album usually arrived in the early morning, and then the next morning, they had to put the new album on the shelf.

It's not a lot of work, but you need to empty the entire shelf and put it up, and you have to pay attention to the crowd.

But at this moment, after hearing Qin Feng's song, everyone had a strange feeling, as if their hard work was worth it.

Qin Feng's first album has a total of twenty songs, including twelve new songs.

With so many classic songs on one album, other singers were all red-eyed, thinking that Qin Feng was crazy and too wasteful.

The song was playing, and Li Ruofeng immediately walked out of the store with a pen and paper to count sales, which is a common thing, but there is no need to be so delicate in statistics, just randomly check a part of it, and then calculate the approximate sales.

However, when Li Ruofeng just pushed open the door of the store and stepped out of the store, he was still stunned by the scene in front of him.

The team, which was originally only more than 100 meters, has suddenly more than doubled, and is growing at a rate visible to the naked eye, which has not appeared for a long time in the beginning of the digital music era, unless some king-level new albums will appear this kind of scene.

"How many copies of 'Chinese Storm' do you plan to buy?" Li Ruofeng asked with a smile as she asked the girl who was the first in line.

"Five!" said the girl, holding out five fingers.

"I want four. ”

"I want six. ”

"I want ten for my best friend. ”

Li Ruofeng just asked, and the crowd behind automatically replied.

"I want three!"

"I want ten!"

"I want two!"

Without waiting for Li Ruofeng to continue asking, the people behind heard the people in front of them report the amount they wanted to buy, and they also followed suit.

In fact, they just wanted to come over and buy one, but in fact, one copy is completely enough for them.

After a month, the songs from the album will be uploaded online, and then they will download them for much less.

The reason why I bought the album was just that I felt that the quality of the songs released by Qin Feng was not bad, and it was easy to substitute people into it.

So even if you spend 60 yuan to buy a genuine album, it is a very good choice to use it for collection.

But after listening to the new song "Seven Miles of Fragrance" on the album, it suddenly makes people feel that there are other surprises in this album?

"Store manager, everyone outside has to buy at least two or more, the most ten tickets, and almost everyone will buy about three tickets when you put it together. Just a few minutes later, Li Ruofeng came back with the numbers he had just counted.

It's just that the piece of paper in his hand is not written at all.

"So many, there must be at least a thousand people outside now, right?" the store manager frowned, and quickly walked to the window to look at the queue outside.

Even if he didn't hear the new songs, just by including the original songs in this album, the store manager expected Qin Feng's album to be popular, but after getting the statistics, he was still startled.

However, when he reached the window, the situation in the square stopped him again.

There are indeed several thousand people queuing outside, but this number is not just a thousand people, the queue alone is as long as five or six hundred meters, and the average one meter is calculated by three people, and five hundred meters is 1,500 people, and now there are at least 2,000 people queuing outside.

If they all follow the statistics just now, I am afraid that the stock in their store is simply not enough to sell today, and, most importantly, the ten security guards outside are obviously not enough, and to maintain order, it must not affect the passage of the mall.

This kind of hot scene, even if he has been the store manager for so many years, he has only seen it two or three times in the past ten years.

"Ruofeng, you go to the property and ask them to send ten more security guards over, and the others speed up and open early today. The manager shouted to the crowd.

Then he ran to the side and called the boss to report the situation here.

"Don't crowd, don't crowd, there is a lot of stock in the store, everyone uses it, don't worry, pay attention to safety." Li Ruofeng stood at the door, looking at the empty shelves, thousands of albums were snatched up in less than half an hour.

The crowd behind saw that there was no goods on the shelves, and they suddenly became anxious.

Six security guards and two clerks blocked the door to barely maintain order in the store, and with the current situation, it was too late to put goods on the shelves.

So the store manager asked people to put the album next to the cash register and get the album directly at the checkout, so that at least the mood in the store could be temporarily controlled.

At the same time, in other branches of Taobao record stores, the scene was not much different from this store, with crowded crowds and empty shelves, which caught everyone off guard.

In a record store in Beijing:

"Boss, is there Qin Feng's new album 'Chinese Storm'?" asked a college student who skipped class and ran to a record store near the school.

"Nope. The boss shook his head.

"What? Not even 'China Storm'? Then what kind of record store do you still open? Close your doors as soon as possible. The college student said dissatisfied.

"Alas, classmate, is this album very popular?" the boss asked depressedly.

"Fire, of course. Haven't you heard of "Blue and White Porcelain"? I've always seen "I'm a Singer", right? Qin Feng, do you know?"

The boss nodded.

"That's his new album, forget it, I won't tell you, hurry up and go out and line up.

My friend said that the queue outside was a few kilometers away, and if you don't go, you won't be able to buy it today. ”

"Hey, classmate, wait, I'll call to buy the goods, I'll be there in the afternoon, and I'll leave some for you then." The boss hurriedly pulled out the student, and then immediately picked up the phone to order.

Seeing this situation, some record store owners who were not optimistic about Qin Feng's album before picked up their mobile phones and began to look for a relationship to buy goods.

Qin Feng Studio, at this moment, everyone's eyes are still on this new album.

Because it was the first time to release an album, even if Qin Feng was very confident, he didn't dare to play too much.

So, only a million albums were produced in the first batch, 100,000 of which were sent out yesterday.

The rest of the more than 700,000 goods are scattered and scattered, and there are still about 200,000 goods on the studio's side.

At the moment, there are not many people in the studio, most of them have been sent to various places in Beijing to investigate the market situation, and only seven or eight people are left in the studio.

According to the feedback so far, there are not many people waiting in line to buy, but strangely, the company has not received any calls for orders.

At this moment, 'Jingle Bell ~~~'

The studio's business phone rang suddenly, and the staff who had been on standby at their posts immediately picked up the phone.

"Hello, Qin Feng Studio Business Department. ”

"What? You want to order 200,000 goods?...... Is it 200,000 pieces, not 200,000 yuan?"

"I'm sorry, the studio doesn't have so much inventory at the moment, but the manufacturer has been notified that it is stepping up production, you can book it first, and it will be arranged for you as soon as possible when the goods are delivered. ”

"What? Do you want to invite Kaede Shao to your place for a book signing? Okay, I'll tell the manager about your situation, and you can talk to him about the details. ”
