Chapter 451: Theme Song
Some people suspect that Ye Zheng will continue to release other new types of songs or launch new singers after the folk style, but Time and Space Music did not do that, and even the original newcomer album was temporarily postponed. As a result, many people don't understand what space-time music is going to do. Could it be that the music of time and space is going to compete like this? But, now, they understand. Space-time music wasn't going to be wasted like this, they had amazing means, but it wasn't folk or other new genres and newcomers, it was back to rock 'n' roll!
Some time ago, some people speculated that Time and Space Music would not use their exclusive rock singers as a pioneer to fight a bloody road, but Time Music launched campus folk songs. But just when people thought that time and space music would not make a fuss about rock and roll, suddenly came the news that the World Cup selected two theme songs, one is "TheCupofLife" sung by the Black Butterfly Band, and the other is "WeareTheChampions" sung by the Tang Dynasty Band.
As soon as the two songs were announced, they were widely loved by the masses all over the world, and became popular songs in the streets and alleys of the world, and they were in the limelight for a while! The two Chinese rock bands, the Black Butterfly Band and the Tang Dynasty Band, also entered the field of vision of Westerners at once, and people fell in love with them at once by relying on these two songs. Time and Space Music merged the two songs into a mini album, and when it was sold in China, it also quickly landed in the Western market.
Because of the popularity of these two songs, Time Music received dozens of orders from all over the world at once, and Time Music signed up to 5 million contracts at once, and follow-up contracts will be negotiated according to market reaction. The market response was undoubtedly very good, and the album sold more than 700,000 copies in Huaxia on the day it was first released, which was still because of the demand all over the world, and Huaxia only left 700,000 copies in stock, which was sold out at once.
The next day, when it landed in all parts of Asia and the European countries, the album's sales surged to 4 million copies. So another batch of orders flew in, and Time Music quickly signed another three million orders!
Originally, everyone knew that the European and American markets were the shortcomings of time and space music, and time and space music had almost no market interests in Europe and the United States. Many people speculate that after Time and Space Music stabilizes in China, it should gradually open up the European and American markets, release English song albums, and perhaps come up with more amazing works, just like opening the market in China at the beginning, to open a breakthrough in the European and American markets.
Everyone thought that the works brought out by time and space music might be amazing, but no one would have imagined that they would be so amazing! With only two songs, the Black Butterfly Band and the Tang Dynasty Band successfully landed in the European and American markets, and for a time they had hundreds of millions of fans, especially Xiao Qi, a young sexy and beautiful oriental rock girl, who became the oriental goddess in the hearts of countless European and American boys in just a few days.
This is not a breakthrough in the European and American markets at all, but a sudden stabbing into the European and American markets, and the two bands are like two sharp spears, nailed to the Western continent! It has laid a broad and solid foundation for the future development of time and space music in the European and American markets!
It turns out that time and space music still wants to use rock as a killer feature, but no one thought that no one would expect it, see it before, and never hear of it. In fact, not only in the European and American markets, but also in China, the emergence of these two songs has also opened up the market of time and space music, and the Black Butterfly Band and the Tang Dynasty Band have once again received countless people's popularity, this time, not only rock fans, but hundreds of millions of people. Fans like to listen to the song and sweat passionately, and ordinary students, workers, and white-collar workers also like it. Such an exciting and enterprising song, after exhausting work and study, is simply a stimulant, and the motivation is unlimited. Because of the influence of these two songs, the popularity of the Black Butterfly Band and the Tang Dynasty Band!" Xiao Qi has become the most popular singer at the moment. As a result, the sales of their second album have increased after entering a period of decline, and the sales of hundreds of thousands have increased in China. Time and Space Music also released news that "Sea and Sky" and "The Best Tang Dynasty" and Li Jian's "No Land and Self-Respect" will land in the European and American markets in a short time.
However, before the three albums landed in the European and American markets, Time and Space Music released two EP albums. Two EP rock albums. Two songs sung by the Black Butterfly Band, the Tang Dynasty Band, and Li Jian, one of which is called "Flag Opens to Victory", is a song that combines Chinese and English. In the description of the album, this is a tribute to this World Cup. It is also dedicated to the Chinese football team.
This makes Ye Zheng very glad that the Chinese football team in this world is finally no longer a stinky foot and a soft commodity that can't get into the World Cup, but one of the world's first-class teams.
Although Easterners lose physically to Westerners, it is still inevitable in this world, resulting in the world ranking is still inferior to the United Kingdom, Spain and other countries, but they have also achieved runner-up results in the World Cup, and have been among the top eight in the last few World Cups. In this World Cup, the Chinese football team is even more ambitious, aiming for the top four, aiming for the championship trophy!
This song "Flag Opens to Win" is a gift to the Chinese football team! And the Chinese Football Association said that this song will also be formulated as a promotional song for Chinese football this year! And "Flag Victory" was the Chinese version of the 2010 South Africa World Cup promotion song released by Coca-Cola in the previous life, and its prototype "Wavingflag" spread very widely and was loved by people all over the world. It's just that the Chinese version of this song is only widely spread in China.
But the influence of the Chinese language in this world is great, and this is the time when the Black Butterfly Band and the Tang Dynasty Band are popular all over the world. As soon as this EP album was released, it was promoted to the world at once with the first two songs and the World Cup. The other EP album is an even more popular rock song, "WewillRockyou" from the original Queen. Along with "wearethechampions", both songs are Queen's most famous singles, and they also became the theme song of the 1994 World Cup in the United States. At that time, most people in China knew about Queen, and it started with this song.
From pop superstars to unknown howls in karaoke parlors, this song has been covered countless times. This song is positioned by Time and Space Music as a gift to the World Cup, and it is also a gift to rock music! Once the two EP albums were released, they set off a frenzy again, and the two songs quickly became the top three of the world's major authoritative music websites, and became hit songs along with "WeareTheChampions" and "TheCupofLife"! After the album landed in Asia and many countries in Europe and the United States at the same time, the sales reached 2 million and 3 million copies respectively in just three days! The limelight is unmatched!
In China alone, sales exceeded 1 million copies in three days. The combined mini-album of the previous two World Cup theme songs has reached eight million sales. In one week, all eight million albums that had been shipped out of the library were sold out. It is rumored that Time Music is negotiating a batch of contracts with sellers around the world for up to 2.2 million copies, and by then, the album will have a circulation of 10 million copies in a month. Thousands of albums, what concept?
The annual sales of a single album are up to 950W in China and 1400W in the world! If the sales of this album exceed 1000W within a month, it will break the record in China, and if it is said that the annual sales volume, it is very likely to break the highest record in the world! And the next two EP albums are estimated to be more than five million copies, and "Wewillrockyou" should be able to reach seven or eight million copies!
These three small albums before and after have created such amazing results, which is convincing. And Time and Space Music also relied on these three albums to start the competition to enter the European and American markets and occupy an advantage. Especially when Ye Zheng wrote the title song of the album for the Gray Sparrow Band and received an invitation to the American Music Awards, many people became more and more optimistic about time and space music.
"Uncle Chen said with a smile, you are a senior teacher, and I still have a lot to learn from you......" Ye Zheng had just said a few words, and suddenly heard a dispute sounding not far from them. A tall blonde in a pink T-shirt with sunglasses is arguing with a young man in a T-shirt, and her words are fierce and fast.
Ye Zheng frowned, his English level was really average, he had only passed the sixth-level exam before, if he read the news in the English newspaper, he could only roughly understand it. The hearing level is limited to the average level. He couldn't hear the machine-gun-like dialogue that changed rapidly in pitch.
Looking at the confusion on Ye Zheng's face, Zhang Deqiang smiled: "In addition to the amount of alcohol, I finally found a place that can defeat you...... Listening to their conversation, it seems like a young couple is arguing. The boy asks the girl why she doesn't love him anymore, and the girl says she never loved him...... It's really interesting, I didn't expect to come to the United States to watch a young emotional dispute. "I think that beauty is a little familiar...... "Zhou Wen said softly, "I feel like I've heard it somewhere......
"It can't be your classmate, right?" Ye Zheng said, Zhou Wen returned to China after studying in the United States for three years. "No, no, I want to think about it......" Zhou Wen thought, Ye Zheng and Zhang Deqiang watched the man and woman arguing with interest. Suddenly, Ye Zheng and Zhang Deqiang's faces changed at the same time, and they saw that the young man with an excited expression suddenly took out a shiny knife from his jeans pocket and stabbed it towards the blonde beauty's stomach!
In the exclamations of Ye Zheng and Zhang Deqiang at the same time, an article in the knife "Contemporary Music Circle" wrote: "Time and space music, or its chairman Ye Zheng, has brought us shock and surprise again and again. When we thought that Chinese rock music was in decline and hopeless, he saved the rock music that none of us could save, and developed Huaxia into a rock music production area that attracted the attention of the world in just one year.
"When we count the musical geniuses of the past, there are no people who can make so many classics at the age of 20.
The World Cup theme song was originally scheduled to be selected in early May. However, the selection of the theme song for this year's World Cup has been postponed by more than a week. The reason is that the jury has a dispute over which of the two songs to choose as the theme song of the World Cup.
"TheCupofLife" and "WeareTheChampions", both of which were written by Ye Zheng, were sung by the Black Butterfly Band and the Tang Dynasty Band respectively, and then carefully produced and recorded before being sent to London, England, the host of the World Cup. In order to win the World Cup theme song, Ye Zheng used these two classic songs that are well-known in the football world at once.
"TheCupofLife" was the official theme song of the 1998 FIFA World Cup and topped the music charts in France and many countries around the world. After the World Cup, it also spread widely and became the first choice of many football programs to set off the atmosphere. The drum rhythm and horn sounds in the song are quite sensational. It can be called a classic among classics. It's just that the traces of the Spanish fusion in the original song have been changed by Ye Zheng, making it a pure English version of the song.
And "WearetheChampions" is one of Queen's most famous singles. High-spirited and shocking. It is often used in various sporting events to promote sportsmanship. It has been sung for many years and is immortal. Ye Zheng took out such two classic songs, just to improve the chances of time and space music winning the World Cup theme song, but he didn't expect that in terms of the creation of the theme song of this World Cup, there was no other song that could compare to these two, and there was no competitiveness directly, and these two songs easily stood out.
The organizers are elated, because this World Cup will give birth to a very classic theme song, but after the excitement, they will make a difficulty, these two songs are so passionate and heroic can be called classics, can be used as the theme song of the World Cup, but which song is used as the theme song? Some people support "thecupoflife" , because this song is not only majestic and amazing, but also sung by the girl Xiao Qi, this kind of men's event occasion, if there is a song sung by a woman, the beautiful and sexy Oriental girl Xiao Qi If she appears in the theme of the World Cup, there is no doubt that it will add a lot of bright colors and be welcomed by fans all over the world. And the Cup of Life, the World Cup, how apt and the theme.
But some people object, if "thecupoflife" is chosen as the theme song, the other "wearethechampions" is undoubtedly wasted, this song is also very suitable for the theme, and it is rare to show a sense of pride and strong self-confidence, which will also generate motivation to move forward, and the "we" in it is said Football is an extremely important sport for teamwork, so a song is not only suitable for the theme song of the World Cup, but can even be used as the team song of thousands of teams.
So, the two sides insisted on their own words, and the dispute lasted for four or five days, and there was still no result, seeing that the outside world was wondering why the theme song of this World Cup had not been announced, the outside people were already curious and looking forward to it, and these people discussed and discussed without a result, so they thought of a way. World Football Association President Kakels personally called Ye Zheng to ask Ye Zheng what he thought, and they couldn't choose, so they asked the creators of the two songs to choose. Anyway, these two songs were created by one person, and it is Ye Zheng's honor to choose which one to choose.
Kakels thought that Ye Zheng might say that it was a certain one, or maybe he would think about it for a day or two. But he didn't expect Ye Zheng to put forward a suggestion that he had never made before, why not use these two songs as the theme song of this World Cup? The World Cup has always had only one theme song, which has become a customary custom for decades. But there has never been a case where two songs were used.
But why does this sound so tempting? Choosing two songs to be the theme songs of the World Cup at the same time, doing something that has never been done before, will undoubtedly add brightness to this World Cup. Carquez was moved, but this proposal was opposed by some people, thinking that since the theme song is called a theme song, it can only be one, and there has always been only one theme song for the World Cup, and there is no reason to use two songs as the theme song at the same time.
There were still people who opposed it, some people who supported it, and they argued for a few more days. Seeing that the World Cup is only a month away, and I don't know when it will be delayed any longer, Carquez waved his hand and chose two songs to be the theme song at the same time! If he is criticized by public opinion from the outside world because of this, Kalks alone will bear all the charges!
So, finally on May 17th, the press conference of the World Cup theme song arrived, at the press conference, Carx announced that "thecupoflife" and "wearethechampions" will be used as the theme song at the same time, at the same time, the two songs will be on the official website of the World Cup and major music websites at the same time, and the organizer will also quickly cooperate with time and space music to shoot the MV of the two theme songs.
As soon as the two songs were announced, there were exclamations and doubts. But when everyone enjoyed these two songs, the doubts quickly disappeared and were replaced by a large number of praises, and almost all fans agreed with this unconventional behavior. It's not too many to have such a classic and passionate song! In just a few hours, two songs have resounded all over the world!
"!!" two such classic football songs are sung all over the world, and countless fans sing two songs, throwing their passion and sweat on the field. Countless people sang these two songs, full of fighting spirit and devoted themselves to life and work.
Ye Zheng's proposal and Carx's decision not only did not become a failure to attract criticism, but made this World Cup receive praise from people from all walks of life and the masses before it was held. And the names of the singers of the two songs, the Black Butterfly Band and the Tang Dynasty Band, also spread all over the world in an instant! Ye Zheng, the creator of the two songs, was also known to musicians around the world for a while.
The name Ye Zheng is actually no stranger to musicians around the world, and the turmoil caused by Ye Zheng and time and space music in China has long been in their attention. Ye Zheng's identity as a ghost creator has gradually been recognized by everyone. However, Ye Zheng has not had any contact with European and American musicians so far, and Ye Zheng's previous works are all Chinese music, so everyone still has no idea about Ye Zheng's talent in English songwriting.
However, some time ago, the news that Ye Zheng created a song for the Gray Sparrow Band of Kinkley Music has spread, and everyone already knows that the Gray Sparrow Band is going to use this song as the title song of the next album. Although I don't know what this song is, it is possible for the Gray Sparrow to adopt it as the title song during a critical period when they compete with another rock band, the Old Cats, and everyone understands that the quality of this song is very high. As for what it will be, no one knows for the time being, so we can only wait until the National Music Awards in early June to find out.
The American Music Awards are as important as the Asian Music Festival is for Asian music companies and artists. It is one of the highest stages for music companies and singers to compete in the United States. The new albums of the Grey Sparrows and the Old Cats are bound to be sent to the jury of the American Music Awards, where there will be a fierce competition. When the time comes, what kind of song Ye Zheng created and what the quality is, it will naturally be seen.
Originally, everyone planned to see how Ye Zheng's English songwriting level was at that time, but they didn't expect Ye Zheng to create two songs for the World Cup, and both songs were qualified for the World Cup theme song, becoming an unprecedented World Cup event.
It has quickly established cooperative relations with sellers all over the world, and attracted some foreign music companies to get in touch with Time and Space Music without waiting for the American Music Awards, and want to negotiate some cooperation projects. In just about a week, Time and Space Music has quickly established an overseas sales network and is establishing overseas partners. This kind of progress is difficult for other music companies to achieve in a few years or even more than a decade. Someone said: "Time and space music quickly established the prototype of the European and American markets, and fired the first shot in the European and American markets." ”
As the first step in the establishment of an overseas sales network, Time and Space Music released two more albums at the end of May. Two pure music albums, from Lin Yujia's piano music album "So-and-so's Summer" and the postponed sale of the women's 12 Bands' national instrumental album of the same name "Twelve Bands". The two albums were released and sold at home and abroad at the same time, and this time it was not only the music world that caused a shock, but the entire music industry, and the charm of piano and Chinese folk instrumental music shocked many masters.
The day after the album was released, several overseas scholars and masters wanted to come to China for exchanges. In particular, an album of "Twelve Orchestras" has caused a lot of sensation in Europe and the United States, and many Westerners have never imagined that some people in Hua will doubt that Ye Zheng will continue to release other new types of songs or new singers after the folk style, but Time and Space Music did not do that, and even the newcomer album that was originally to be released was temporarily postponed. As a result, many people don't understand what space-time music is going to do. Could it be that the music of time and space is ready to compete like this?
But, now, they get it. Space-time music wasn't going to be wasted like this, they had amazing means, but it wasn't folk or other new genres and newcomers, it was back to rock 'n' roll!
Some time ago, some people speculated that Time and Space Music would not use their exclusive rock singers as a pioneer to fight a bloody road, but Time Music launched campus folk songs. But just when people thought that time and space music would not make a fuss about rock and roll, suddenly came the news that the World Cup selected two theme songs, one is "TheCupofLife" sung by the Black Butterfly Band, and the other is "WeareTheChampions" sung by the Tang Dynasty Band.
As soon as the two songs were announced, they were widely loved by the masses all over the world, and became popular songs in the streets and alleys of the world, and they were in the limelight for a while! The two Chinese rock bands, the Black Butterfly Band and the Tang Dynasty Band, also entered the field of vision of Westerners at once, and people fell in love with them at once by relying on these two songs.
