Chapter 365: Top Figures

What does a two-million-level single represent?

At this time, the total population of Japan is about 125 million, and a single of 2 million is equivalent to one person in every 60 people owning this "KISEKI".

If you deduct newborn babies and young children, as well as the elderly, the figure is even more terrifying. To this extent, it can be said that almost everyone in the whole country has already heard this song.

Of course, to this extent, this song is already a well-deserved national song. From the beginning of its release until now, this song "KISEKI" has continued to win the karaoke list on the announced karaoke list until now.

Before the release, Ye Zhao, who made a single with the goal of "making a real national song", finally achieved his goal smoothly with the fresh release of this brilliant report card.

Some music critics jokingly said on the show, "This is a magic that only Ye Zhao can use freely, and it is also a KISEKI (miracle) that only Ye Zhao can create", and the pun resonated with many people, and many people even called this "KISEKI" a "real miracle" when referring to this song.

Whether it is a family party or a company party, or a hometown association and a social gathering, after coming to the karaoke box, ordering a song "KISEKI" to stir up the atmosphere has become a thing that the general public is doing.

Because of the excellent results of this "KISEKI", it has also triggered a wave of imitation - this trend of imitation does not only refer to being sung as a meme by funny artists or idols in variety shows (of course, there are indeed many funny artists and idols who use this song as a meme in shows and skits to imitate).

But what is more interesting than this is that some composers have begun to try to imitate the composition method brought by Ye Zhao, and in the past three months, several singles with a similar style have been released.

Regarding this point, Ye Zhao was already mentally prepared when he came up with these "untimely" tunes. If the song can indeed achieve good commercial results, then it will be absorbed by other musicians and added to the existing pop music, which is also an inevitable thing, or a matter of course.

On the other hand, if KISEKI is a big hit, and no one has hit the nail on it, it will be unbelievable. After all, music style is constantly imitated, refined, and integrated.

Being able to have other musicians join in the implementation of this new style, in Ye Zhao's view, is definitely a matter of only benefits and no harm. Pop music, if it's just someone eating alone, can't become popular, and having new musicians join in also promotes its promotion.

When Ye Zhao achieved such top-level commercial results through "KISEKI", this style was also branded by him.

Even if this style becomes a trend in the future, and there are hits that are not from him, or if the relatively fresh elements are refined by other musicians for a new round of fusion, he is undoubtedly a "pioneer".

This has not only brought him good commercial results, but also made his status in the music industry bullish all the way - after all, being able to bring a new atmosphere to the music scene that has almost used all the popular elements at this stage can already show that he is not just an ordinary musician.

The success of "KISEKI", and the trend of musicians to follow it brought about by its success, in addition to the existing emotions, also made Ye Zhao think about other issues.

That is, in this matter, he clearly felt that the impact of the decision he made on the current world, although the current impact is limited to the Japanese music scene, which is not too big (but not small at all).

But in the places where he could see and feel, and where he could not see and feel, something might have quietly changed. …… Of course, the latter thought was only for a moment.

In this rapidly changing world, he has no time or ability to think about what he can't see, and even if he does, it's just adding useless troubles.

All he can do is to think about the present as much as possible, and to think about what he wants to do and can do in the present.

It's just that although "KISEKI" has led a trend, there has not been a particularly outstanding song in terms of commercial results in the past three months. However, there is an eighth-rate singer who was previously unknown, and for the first time in his career, he reached the top ten of the singles chart for the first time in his career, and sold his best results.

But in any case, Ye Zhao's success is undoubted, in this era when all kinds of music genres can survive well and a hundred flowers bloom, as a pioneer of new trends, his trust and respect for him in the minds of the public has also reached an unprecedented level.

……

First of all, there was the initial move of the latest single "Bo δΉ—γ‚Šγ‚Έγƒ§γƒ‹γƒΌ" to win 800,000 copies in one fell swoop, and then it was a sure thing to sell more than one million. During this sales period, there was a steady stream of additional orders from record sellers, and it was natural to hit 1.5 million copies.

The next thing he achieved in this week was that he won his first 2 million single since his debut, and the second 2 million single since the establishment of BEING.

In addition to BEING, looking at the entire Japanese music scene, this million-dollar single has also become the third two-million-dollar single of the year after Mr. Kid and Globe.

In terms of rankings, the tentative first place is globe, followed by Mr. Child, and Ye Zhao is in third place, however, given that this year is just over halfway through, these three singles are still in the hot selling stage.

And in April and May, which followed, there were also strong opponents who had the strength to hit 1.5 million and 2 million, so in the end, whether there will be a dark horse to kill in the end, and how these three singles that have successfully exceeded 2 million will be ranked, it is still a mystery.

In this era when there are so many singles in a million and singles that sell one million copies may not even be able to enter the top 20 of the annual charts, although selling a million-level single is very powerful, it is not as powerful as before, and the really powerful top people are those who can break through 1.5 million from one million and finally hit two million.

And with the success of "KISEKI" in the 2 million queue, Ye Zhao has become one of the top characters.
