On the morning of his departure from Akita, Yuki Tamura, who had stayed in Tokyo, faxed the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart, and "WINTER, AGAIN" won the third place that week with 125,300 copies.

At the end of each year, it is the most intensive time for the music industry to release songs, all kinds of big things gather to fight with immortals, and it is not a loss to win the weekly championship, but in anticipation, the first week passing mark of this single should be more than 200,000 copies.

ALTHOUGH IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE LACK OF TIE-UP, BUT IN THE CASE OF PROVIDING WORD-OF-MOUTH GUIDANCE FOR WANDS' SINGLES, PLAYING A 12CM GIMMICK, AND USING DOUBLE MV PROMOTION, THE SALES IN THE FIRST WEEK STILL SHRANK BY MORE THAN ONE-THIRD.

Even Yuki Uemura, who sent the list to Ye Zhao, looked a little reluctant on his face.

Ye Zhao put the list in his hand, "It doesn't matter, the future will be long." He turned around and packed his luggage. The souvenirs he bought in Yuzawa had been sent back to the Tokyo office by a transportation company, and he didn't have much of a burden.

Uemura Yongji wanted to speak and stopped, but Ye Zhao knew it and ignored him. He doesn't pay attention to the matter of floating loss, the so-called floating, isn't it just that it comes and goes?

Now is not the era of information explosion in later generations, whether it is the different versions of the MV made on the TV station, the current national tour, or other publicity methods, it needs a fermentation opportunity.

People have a mysterious silk thread that connects them with each other, and countless silk threads condense together, and finally weave a unique super net, relying on this big net, no matter where people are, they can share resources with each other, pass information to each other, and let the originally inconspicuous little things ferment into big things that are enough to shake the trend.

And what Ye Zhao was waiting for was that opportunity.

Next, the three of them walked through Iwate Prefecture and Miyagi Prefecture, in the capital of Miyagi Prefecture, Sendai City, the domain of Date Rokuteryu, Honda, Twenty Years, and Masamune, Ye Zhao went to Akiho Hot Spring Street to soak in hot springs before he left, and turned the originally boring running propaganda into a publicly-funded tour.

On December 20th, when he set off from Yamagata Prefecture for Ou, a new chart arrived, with Mr. Kid's new single topping the weekly chart with more than 300,000 copies sold, and "WINTER, AGAIN" remaining in third place with more than 106,000 copies, leaving the rest of the latecomers behind.

The fact that there was no big drop in the second week of release is a good sign, and that signal adds a glimmer of hope to the single's prospects.

Sure enough, as they gradually moved south, the momentum of the tour also ushered in a change. On December 23rd, the day you arrive in Tochigi Prefecture, the entire Utsunomiya city is decorated with Christmas trees and garlands, and the occasional girl in an exaggerated Christmas costume will make you proud if you look at it differently from passers-by.

The Xinxingtang CDSHOP in front of the station has all kinds of Christmas songs in the most eye-catching place in the store, and to Ye Zhao's surprise, the stereo in the store is not playing those famous Christmas songs, but his "WINTER, AGAIN".

The group visited the local broadcasting bureau as usual, and this time they didn't have to take out the audition single, the producer of the broadcasting bureau welcomed them in first, and after agreeing to promote the single, the producer proposed: "There will be a public delivery in the city tomorrow afternoon, if Ye Zhaosang can participate, I think everyone will be very excited." How, do you want to think about it?"

"No problem, it's my pleasure. Ye Zhao agreed.

At four o'clock in the afternoon of the next day, the host of Ye Zhaohe Radio appeared in the city center, and played a live broadcast in front of the audience on the three layers of soundproof glass.

The show lasted for 45 minutes, and after the announcement, the audience on the sidelines almost did not disperse, and I don't know who started first, and the people who stayed began to sing the song "WINTER, AGAIN". At first, just a few people sang along, but when the song reached its climax, more and more people joined in, and eventually it became a collective chorus.

"Ye Zhaosang, the audience is singing your song!" the staff of the broadcasting bureau hurriedly walked over.

Ye Zhao grabbed the coat on the hanger, walked out of the lounge accompanied by Yuki Uemura, and came to the outside of the building, when the chorus was at its most enthusiastic, seeing Ye Zhao appear, the atmosphere was suddenly pushed to the climax of the enthusiasm, and the audience repeated the climax of the song while high-five.

The not-so-professional singing voice and rhythmic applause hit Ye Zhao's heart all at once. whispered to Yuki Uemura, who trotted in and quickly came out with a guitar.

Ye Zhao bowed deeply to the audience, took the guitar, and said loudly: "Thank you! everyone's singing is the most beautiful singing voice I have ever heard, next, please listen to my singing voice too!"

"Oh——!" the audience cheered.

——

As soon as the latest Asuka Miao sat down, everyone in the box couldn't wait to raise the wine glasses in their hands: "For this month's hometown meeting-"

"Cheers!" the glasses clinked together with a crisp clanging sound.

What brought this small group of sixteen together was that they all came from the same land: Iwate Prefecture. The Northeast region is vast and sparsely populated, and if you want to get better development opportunities, you can only move closer to the capital area, but on the hurried road of struggle, people who have always been accustomed to living in groups still spontaneously organize one hometown association after another.

After having their fill of wine and food, the group left the restaurant and went to the karaoke restaurant in Nishiikebukuro. Leading the way was the eldest Toshiro Morita, who kicked off the karaoke with a song "Reckless Sinbad", and the microphone passed through the hands of one person after another until it came to the hands of Asuka Naoko.

As the least popular person in this small group of sixteen, Asuka Miaozi's repertoire in karaoke has always been "Spring in the North" and "Shaoguang Flows", and her taste is not like a 23-year-old young man, but similar to a middle-aged person in the company who is over forty years old, so when she takes the microphone, everyone around her thinks "Ah...... It's going to start again".

SURPRISINGLY, THIS TIME, ASUKA MIAOZI NEITHER CHOSE CHIHARU MATSUYAMA NOR TERESA TENG, BUT FOUND YE ZHAO'S "WINTER, AGAIN" AND SANG IT VERY DEVOTEDLY.

At the end of the song, the people in the box applauded in unison. The person who has a good relationship with Asuka Miaozi joked: "Miaozi, when did you change your taste? ”

Asuka Naoko smiled, "Last week, I called my sister in my hometown, and she recommended this song, and I unexpectedly liked it, so I specially learned to prepare to show my hand at the party." Besides, everyone is impatient with singing all the time, right?"

"Having said that, my classmates in Morioka told me that Ye Zhaosang recently went to Iwate to do publicity and participated in a radio program, and after the program ended, the broadcasting bureau received a lot of calls ordering songs, and even my classmates followed the order a few times. Companion Kana Okura also said.

"That's right, that's right! I heard from my colleagues in Sendai in the company that Ye Zhaosang also went to their side. My colleague also recommended this song to me, but I had already bought it when I saw the song MV on the paydesk before, "It's a kind little fat man who speaks," because the heroine in the MV is really beautiful. ”

"MV heroine? What I saw on Asahidai was just a live clip. Another chimed in.

"You don't know this," the little fat man explained, "Ye Zhaosang filmed two MVs for this song, and the other one was shot by him with a girl, by the way, it is the girl on the cover of the single." ”

"Eh~ really fake? can you still play like this? Then I'll buy one too!"

In this way, a fellow villager meeting suddenly deviated and turned into a discussion meeting for Ye Zhao's new single, until Morita Toshiro picked up the microphone and asked loudly: "Who should be next?"

Things like what happened in this karaoke box are constantly being staged in the Tokyo area and even all over the country, and in this way, through the big net of interpersonal relationships, Ye Zhao finally ushered in the turn he had been waiting for.
