Verse 74: Rejuvenation
The corner video store is located in the EQ area of XZ City, although the place is not big, the store is only a few dozen square meters, but the geographical location is good, and the decoration is also elegant.
The owner, Wu Jiacang, is a man in his thirties, although his appearance is not delicate but very literary and artistic, with long hair over his ears and a neatly trimmed mustache, he is casually patrolling the store, and he sees the records that customers are putting away casually, and the headphones that have not been sorted out after listening to them are put back, and his eyes are inadvertently swept over a few customers who are selecting CDs in the store, and his eyes are quite gloomy.
Because of the general environment, business has really been worse this year, especially compared with the most popular years of the record market in the past nine years. However, it is still manageable, but I don't know what the market will deteriorate into in a few years, and the Record Industry Association doesn't know if it can come up with any measures......
Wu Jiacang thought as he walked, and he had already come to the counter.
“…… Find out for yourself. ”
In front of the counter, there was a boy in his twenties who was talking to the clerk, looking eager, and the clerk was lazily perfunctory, as if he was struggling to say even one more word.
"I've looked for it, but I don't. ”
The boy looked at the clerk with a flattering smile on his face, "You tell me where it is, or you can tell me exactly if it's in stock." ”
The boy is dressed in a simple white T, and his face is still childish, and he still looks like a student, so he is also easier to talk. Of course, these clerks are also ghosts, and they are all masters of the dishes, if they were shrewd and powerful, they would not be so perfunctory.
"Find a ...... for yourself"
The clerk was about to continue to perfunctory, when suddenly out of the corner of his eye caught a glimpse of the boss coming, and immediately changed his attitude, from a lazy appearance to instantly cheer up, operate on the computer, and finally said to the boy in front of him with a smile: "Is "Red Dust Inn"?"
The boy quickly nodded his head again and again.
The clerk continued: "I'm sorry, I just looked at it, this album is sold out, and it won't be available in two days, so you can come back and see it then." If you have a mobile phone or phone, you can also leave the number and we can notify you once it arrives. ”
"Sold out?"
The boy's expression was frustrated, he was about to leave, and his body had already turned sideways in the direction of the door, but he turned his body over again and said to the clerk: "Okay, you can leave my phone number, leave it for me when it is in stock, and remember to notify me when the time comes." My number is ......"
What a hassle!
The clerk was very irritable, but the boss was there, he still suppressed the true thoughts in his heart, patiently registered the boy, and by the way, he also recommended other albums to the boy, in order to make an impression of an excellent employee in the boss's heart: "Otherwise, you can also look at other records, Luo Xianyang's new album is selling very hot, there are not many left, if you come back in two days, you may not be able to buy ......"
The boy sounded a little moved, but his hand was put into the pocket of his pants, and there was a grasping movement, as if to measure whether the money in the pocket was enough, and finally shook his head, "No thanks, remember to call me then." ”
The clerk nodded and smiled, "Of course, don't worry." ”
After registering, the boy pushed open the door and left, while Wu Jiacang had already walked to the counter, and after the boy had completely left, he asked, "This is not the first guest to ask "Red Dust Inn", right?"
The clerk was stunned, "Is there one?" said and flipped through the registration book, and sure enough, he saw the name of the album again.
Wu Jiacang shook his head in his heart and sighed.
Even he, the boss who doesn't often stay in the store, still remembers this kind of thing, but Xiao Wu has no impression at all, which shows how much he doesn't take his work to heart. If it weren't for the fact that the other party was also an old employee, he would have some feelings, and Xiao Wu's work would not have a big fork, he really wanted to get rid of this guy.
Xiao Wu also realized that his behavior was a little incompetent, but he was also clever, and made up for it: "Boss, there are quite a few people who have asked about this album in the past two days, should we urge the manufacturers to hurry up and replenish the stock again?"
Between the words, he looks like a good employee who thinks about the store with his heart and lungs.
Wu Jiacang said casually: "I've beaten it, but it takes time for people to print and distribute goods." After speaking, I didn't bother to pay attention to this old fritter, and I couldn't stop patrolling the store, but I couldn't help but think of the "Red Dust Inn" in my mind.
He would open such a video store because he is a music lover himself, so he has also heard this album.
From his personal sensory point of view, although the singer of this album is unknown and doesn't even know what he looks like, the quality is really nothing to say, and it is the album he has heard the most in the past two years.
And unlike ordinary people who only care about singers, Wu Jiacang, a semi-professional listener in the amateur, also cares about many other aspects, such as producers, songwriters, etc., which also made him discover one thing, that is, the producers and songwriters of this album are all singers called Brother Zhuanyin!
One person is not unique in the music world, from producer, songwriter to singer, but it is really rare for the quality to be able to achieve this level, which shocked Wu Jiacang at the time, and also made his sense of expectation and goodwill for this mysterious singer of "Brother Turn" skyrocket. And he also believes that with such a talented singer, as long as the level does not drop too much in the future, it is not a problem to be promoted to a first-line singer in the Chinese music scene, and it is even very possible to become Luo Xianyang's king.
In today's environment, having such a musician born out of thin air makes music lovers like Wujiacang a little happy.
……
The popularity of "Red Dust Inn" is not limited to this one store in XZ City.
At this stage, although the Internet has begun to rise, from the perspective of big data, traditional media such as TV still occupy the majority of the share of entertainment channels after all, especially the music billboard of CCTV's three sets of programs that are all young in the country, and the people it targets are far from being comparable to the player group of "Medieval Legends".
With the broadcast of the music billboard, the two songs were on the list, and the excellent quality of the works attracted a lot of attention by virtue of the excellent channel of the music billboard, and many people like Chen Wanxian converted it into a willingness to buy, so many Rongsheng records across the country have distribution channels, in "Red Dust Inn" After the slowdown in sales momentum a few days ago, a new wave of sales momentum has risen, and some video stores in popular areas of first-tier cities are sold out like video stores around the corner, and a large number of reminder requests have been sent to manufacturers.
With the rejuvenation of the album and the increasing audience, the on-demand rate of the songs in the "Red Dust Inn" album on various radio and television has also increased steadily, and at the same time, the emergence of higher frequency has also further expanded the audience of these songs, allowing more people to hear and recognize these new songs, which in turn have regenerated into a part of the new purchase intention.
It's snowballing, it's getting bigger and bigger.
Rongsheng Records played the role of an energy provider in this game, and after the market fed back the situation in a timely manner, Tian Chuan, who was already proud, was even more overjoyed to receive such an unexpected joy, and even the successive victories made him finally magnify his courage and reprint it...... 100,000 sheets.
In the midst of this trend, the week passed quickly, and on Tuesday night, the weekly music charts began again.
