Many times, many things, not necessarily who is stronger than whom, the result, often always such a sentence: time, momentum.

The times make heroes.

In Li Qian's personal opinion, the album "Once You" is not much better than "Fake Monk", the two should be regarded as works on the same level - just like the outside world's interpretation of him, when making an album, he always tries his best to make the works in the album as inclusive and eclectic, taking into account the style and taste of the niche, and at the same time, he never cares about himself, only plays some small and small things, but pays attention to the inclusion of works with relatively good popularity, forming the free retraction of the whole album.

Cui Jian, Dou Wei, Xu Wei, Huang Jiaju, Zhao Chuan, Wu Bai, Wang Feng, and even Tang Dynasty, Zero, etc., which may appear in the rock albums of the four major beauty bands in the future, etc., have gathered the peak works accumulated in other time and space for decades, Li Qian has full confidence, whether it is word-of-mouth or sales, he will definitely not lose to the flying band of this time and space. However, if you want to say that the album of the Flying Band will definitely not be as good as "Once You Was", it is obviously not necessarily.

At least Li Qian himself, and even Liao Liao, Cao Zhan and others, are not conceited to that extent.

Moreover, Li Qian is indeed looking forward to the Flying Band coming up with a wonderful enough album to play against him.

However, the result was definitely not what he could have predicted when he decided to make this album in the first place.

At this time last year, with his quite popular popularity at the time, a few weeks after the launch of "Fake Monk", it was tepid, although it was not bad, but I always felt that it was still a breath away, it was a few weeks after the listing, the word of mouth accumulated to a certain extent, and the sales slowly rose, but even so, in fact, the sales of that album could not be regarded as an explosion, but the long-term sales were relatively good.

But "Once You Were You" is clearly not like that.

In the first week after the year, the entire domestic entertainment industry revolved around three hot events: first, everyone praised or criticized the Spring Festival Gala, among them, the eleven minutes of the finale by the four major beauty bands were obviously a topic that could not be avoided; second, it was related to the album "Once You", some people commented on the works, and some people estimated the first week sales of this album; third, of course, the infighting of the Flying Band, and the cancellation of the new album that was expected to be officially released in the first half of this year.

Each of these three things is closely related to the four major beauty bands, so the topic heat on them and the attention gathered on the album "Once You" can be imagined.

The sales of this album are definitely going to break the record, which is something that countless people have guessed in advance, but no one can say how high its sales can rush.

Li Qian's own fame is getting bigger and bigger, the four beauty bands have gained more and more loyal fans in the past year, especially after "Fake Monk" has laid a good reputation, and it is also a point, the news attention caused by the competition with the flying band since the end of last year is another point, of course, the eleven minutes of the Spring Festival Gala must also be very important.

In the end, all of this will be directly reflected in the sales of "Once Upon a Time".

Therefore, when the next Monday arrives, the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, February 15 of the Western calendar, just after Valentine's Day, the new issue of Dongguan Bookstore's sales list has suddenly become the focus of attention in the entire entertainment industry.

And this data is 147269 in a single week!

In the first week of its release, it officially went on sale on February 10, and by February 14, "Once You" had sold nearly 150,000 copies at Dongguan Bookstore alone!

That's enough to scare people to death!

Moreover, Zhen Zhen, who just released a new album in early January this year, is on this list, and her new album ranks second, but her weekly sales are only 13,105 copies!

The first place is more than eleven times that of the second place!

In this regard, the overall sales data of the last week given by Dongguan Bookstore shows that the album "Once You" accounted for 78.3% of the total sales of all audio-visual products sold by Dongguan Bookstore's national sales system in the past week.

Everyone, including the members of the four beauty bands, and of course Li Qian, were all stunned in the face of this data.

Without any doubts and without having to look up any information and records, everyone can be sure that the first week of "Once You" broke all previous records in the record sales world for the first week!

Because the gap is so big, so big that it is beyond imagination, the original record does not even need to be compared!

Previously, first of all, "Sister and Sister Stand Up" with Wuxing Wusu became popular in the traditional off-season of record sales, and was known as a phenomenon, and later, Liao Liao's "The Sound of the Waves Remains" not only directly hit the third album of Wuxing Wusu to the sales of directly cut in half, but also repeatedly hit new sales highs, and was praised as a phenomenon by the industry, and later, He Runqing's transformation was successful, and the album of "Dream Chaser" created a dizzying opening sales, and for a while, it was inevitably crowned a phenomenal title by the media.

However, now, the entire pop music industry, the record industry, distribution companies, and the media circle, after being stunned by such an astonishing data of nearly 150,000 in a single week, slowly came back to their senses, and they were all stunned to find that this was the real phenomenon.

The so-called phenomenal level is completely outside the normal range of everyone's predictions, and even to a certain extent, there must be all kinds of unreasonableness - Dongguan Bookstore alone, with their chain stores of only about 100 stores in the country, actually sold a single six-digit sales, which is undoubtedly the biggest irrationality.

And yet, it just happened.

The entire pop music scene was silenced.

Then, there was the overwhelming coverage of all the domestic media.

The Four Great Beauty Bands immediately became the loudest names in the whole of China after the Lunar New Year.

Li Qian, Liao Liao, Cao Zhan, Yu Bojun, Wang Huaiyu, each of these names instantly became legends, and under the more or less exaggerated exaggeration of the media, each of them seemed to be so starry!

And after such an amazing sales were released, several hot topics before were suddenly brought in again.

Gala...... The director team broke through many obstacles and invited the four beauty bands to join, and, they also resisted the pressure and gave the four beauty bands the opportunity to perform in the finale, and one gave them up to eleven minutes, there is no doubt that they successfully launched the four beauty bands, and on the basis of the already good overall quality of this Spring Festival Gala, there is such a bonus, of course, it is considered a success.

This is undoubtedly enough to boast about the entire variety show department of Huaxia TV, for the director Zhao Yigu, and for the director team of the Spring Festival Gala!

"Once You" ...... In the face of such an astonishing sales, do you still criticize it for what is bad or bad? Do you really think that so many fans in the country are amazing? Fans have proved everything with their actions and their money!

So, pat yourself on the back, OK! Find fault, not OK!

Of course, mavericks are always there, and the more times like this, the more newspapers and writers will jump out and attack what everyone is optimistic about, in order to prove that their vision and aesthetic taste are different, and hope to win attention and sales, but it is clear that in the current overwhelming praise across the country, reports and statements such as this one will soon be like sand in the river, or washed away by the current, or simply sink to the bottom of the water, and become part of the riverbed.

And then...... Flying Band.

Since the infighting and fights were exposed at the time, the major media in Suncheonfu have been closely chasing the various members of the Flying Band and Xinda Records in the hope of digging up bigger news.

And with the phenomenal sales of "Once You" in the first week, the previous Flying Band fight incident was instantly interpreted by the brain-opening media in various versions - there are theories of fear, there are theories of changing songs, there are arguments of uneven distribution of interests, and there are also theories of Flying Band asking for price increases.

In short, all kinds of negative news are coming.

Under increasing pressure from the media and fans, on Wednesday, February 17, the third day of the release of the sales charts of Dongguan Bookstore, Zhou Zhao, general manager of Cinda Records, joined hands with Zheng Mo, the manager of the Flying Band, and one of the troikas of the Flying Band, Rhythm Guitar Ma Aishu, to jointly hold a press conference.

At the press conference, Ma Aishu came forward and directly denied the rumors of infighting and fighting in the Flying Band, of course, and then he frankly admitted that within the band, everyone has certain differences about the creative style of the album, which will have a certain impact on the creation of the album, but there is no doubt that everyone still supports Lao Xiao's creation, and the release time of this album in the future will be postponed to the second half of the year, but the style must still be the style of the Flying Band, or the style of Rock Lao Xiao.

As for the media's repeated questioning, it was because after hearing "Once You", the band was worried that the album would fail in terms of word-of-mouth and sales after it was released, so there was infighting, so the album was postponed, Ma Aishu did not say a word, and their agent Zheng Mo disdained this statement.

However, it was useless, the two protagonists in the infighting and fight, Xiao Aiguo and Geng Le, were not present, which was enough for the media to draw all kinds of conjectures, not to mention, on the night of the press conference, a reporter took a photo of Geng Le buying drunk at a night club, and the next day the photo and report were issued, the band-aid on the corner of Geng Le's eyes, and his drunken appearance, instantly made Ma Aishu's righteous rebuttal at the previous press conference a joke.

Then there were rumors circulating within the industry: the Flying Band was facing a disintegration, and they were only one step away!

The band was faced with the huge vortex of disbandment, which stirred up this palace-level band even more deeply into the negative press coverage.

With the passage of time, the annual leave has ended, everyone has returned to work, and then, the students have also started school one after another, with the passing of the Lantern Festival, seeing that this week is coming to an end, the results of the second week of the listing of "Once You" have suddenly become the absolute focus of attention in the entire domestic music scene and domestic entertainment circle!

Obviously, the eleven minutes at the Spring Festival Gala have a bonus effect. Over the years, the Spring Festival Gala has always been popular with some people, and those people's albums, including old albums and new albums, will always usher in a rather gratifying sales increase after the Spring Festival Gala is over - this is also one of the reasons why the Spring Festival Gala has attracted singers of all sizes in the domestic music scene.

However, nearly 150,000 sales in a single week!

This increase, even if the Spring Festival Gala only contributed part of it, is scary enough, and it has completely surpassed all the singers who have become popular through the Spring Festival Gala.

Even, within the record industry, as well as quite a few music critics, and within the media, are speculating that although they got such amazing sales in the first week, it is likely to be due to concentrated consumption - in fact, in everyone's thinking, although the total domestic record market has been soaring in recent years, it is certainly unreasonable to suddenly cross from the sales level of 40,000 and 50,000 in a single week to the level of nearly 150,000 in a single week.

Even with the addition of the Spring Festival Gala, even if there are two hot figures with both strength and scandals in the four beauty bands, Li Qian and Liao Liao, even if this album is really excellent, the single-figure sales are still inflated.

In the second week, after the initial heat, after the bonus of the Spring Festival Gala gradually subsided a little, and when the fanatical fans had already spent their money, countless experts predicted that in the week of February 15 to February 21, the sales of the album "Once You" should fall back to a normal level.

For this reason, many well-known newspapers have even set up columns this weekend, inviting industry experts to make an inventory, comments, and estimates on the tracks, style, and standards of this album, as well as the next sales.

According to the value generally estimated by experts, considering that this week's sales explosion will inevitably quickly consume a lot of purchasing power, therefore, in the second week of listing, as long as "Once You" can stabilize above the sales of 10,000 copies in a single week, it will have a healthy long-term sales curve, then this album will not only be a blockbuster, but will sell for a long time. Wuxing Wusu and He Runqing's several albums have been killed.

Of course, if this album can still get more than 40,000 sales in a single week after the ebb of the second week, then, considering that rock is niche but can sell for a long time, and in fact "Fake Monk" is indeed a factor that wins with long-term sales, then it will become the No. 1 selling volume among all records in the domestic music scene, and it will be even more certain.

But what if there are more than 50,000 tickets in a single order? or, higher?

The experts did not say, did not discuss.

And it's not that one person, or a few people, didn't say it, but that all the newspapers and experts who gave a special page on this Saturday and Sunday commented on the matter collectively and unanimously and selectively ignored this possibility.

Obviously, everyone agreed that after selling nearly 150,000 copies in the first week, setting a sales record that is almost impossible for anyone to break, the potential consumer base and purchasing power of the album have been greatly consumed, so the second week was only 50,000 words...... That's completely impossible!

However, the next day, on February 22, another Monday, when the new issue of Dongguan Bookstore's sales list was released, all the experts were slapped one by one!

In the second week of its release, the sales of "Once You" plummeted, but ...... 114892 sheets in a single week!

Many of the opinions analyzed by the experts in the column are really not wrong, because of the addition of the Spring Festival Gala, this album has been well-known to hundreds of millions of viewers and fans across the country before it was listed, just in time for the annual vacation, just in time for everyone to either have red envelopes in their hands, or it is also the most idle time of the year, and the most leisurely, so this album has not yet been listed, and it has already received a large number of orders, and when it is listed, it will naturally quickly get heart-pounding sales!

The analysis of so many sales within a week of its launch, and a lot of potential consumers and purchasing power were released at once, is certainly extremely correct, but it is clear that they still ignore the overall capacity of the domestic record market today.

After the development of recent years, especially after the large-span development from 93 to this year, the entire domestic record market is full of flowers, and superstars such as Liao Liao and He Runqing are not absent, but the potential consumption power of the entire market has not been really explored.

This point can be seen only when it is as popular as Liao Liao, and the new album can only be sold in Dongguan Bookstore for a single Thursday.

In fact, the entire market has developed to the present, even if it is just Dongguan Bookstore, it has long had the market foundation for the emergence of super albums that sell more than 100,000 copies in a single week.

This is the so-called current situation.

Since Geng Le took the initiative to provoke, the four major beauty bands temporarily decided to make a new album to show their attitude, this kind of news has been brewing, until the finale of the eleven-minute Spring Festival Gala, the two songs should have feelings and feelings, and the popularity should be popular, coupled with the frequent outbreak of various subsequent news events, making such a situation, such an opportunity, finally ripe.

As a result, the astonishing sales of nearly 150,000 copies in the first week were not counted, and in the second week of the launch, under the unanimous favor of the media and experts, a rock album like "Once You" once again won more than 110,000 copies in a single week!

The entire domestic music scene, in the face of such sales, is almost collectively speechless.

The infighting incident of the Flying Band and Geng Le's late-night drunkenness exposed the truth of the matter, will it lead to the disbandment of this palace-level band...... and so on, are no longer a problem, or the media is no longer willing to take their bad ideas as a hot topic of reporting.

Because, it is no longer needed.

Because, many years after the Flying Band withdrew from the music scene, and after many years of rock 'n' roll slump, another great, palace-level, grandmaster-level band has emerged!

Within 12 days of its launch, the total sales volume of Dongguan Bookstore reached 262161! It is expected that the national sales volume will exceed 5 million copies!

This achievement, not only in the domestic pop music scene, is unprecedented, but even in the mature record market in the West, in the huge market including North America and Europe, the sales of about 5 million copies in 12 days on the market are definitely the top data!

Many people in the industry know that Minghu Culture is one of the few record companies in China that has independent distribution channels in Southeast Asia.

In fact, although it shows that the channel of Lake Culture in Southeast Asia has only been built for more than half a year, it has not yet been fully rolled out, and even for the sales in Southeast Asia, Minghu Culture has always been secretive and unwilling to disclose it to the public, but according to the news heard by insiders, last year, He Runqing's "The Price of Love" and Rose Power's "Super-star" It is also the strategy of simultaneous listing in Southeast Asia, it is said that the shipping speed of the two albums in Southeast Asia is about one-third of that of the domestic record market, nearly forty percent- You must know that He Runqing is certainly very popular in Southeast Asia, and the power of roses is also rising rapidly, but Liao Liao and Li Qian are also quite appealing in Southeast Asia, to a certain extent, the popularity and appeal of the four beauty bands with Li Qian and Liao Liao, the two topic figures, in Southeast Asia, are not even weaker than He Runqing!

In the past, in everyone's impression, when it comes to those international superstars in the European and American music scene, domestic singers, musicians and practitioners in the industry are always envious. This kind of envy is not entirely a recognition of the works of European and American superstars, but to a considerable extent, it is envy that the other party has such a broad and mature market, and envy that the other party can always get such a large sales volume every time the album is released - sales means income, and it also means influence.

Therefore, in advance, a superstar in Europe and the United States, the more people in the industry, the more they can't help but be envious and helpless, speaking of someone, as soon as someone's new album is released, it will break one million copies and three million copies in a single week, on the one hand, he is so envious that his saliva is flying, and on the other hand, he is helplessly a little inferior.

As for those superstars in Europe and the United States, they often have one to several top albums with global sales of more than 30 million or 50 million copies, and everyone can only admire them.

However, at this moment, the entire domestic music scene suddenly discovered that it turned out that we already have such a big market, and we already have so many fans who are willing to pay for albums!

Although the four major beauty bands, and their "Once You", must be phenomenal and impossible for ordinary singers to achieve, at least, our Chinese music circle, our Chinese music scene, already has such a palace-level band that is enough to compete with European and American superstars in terms of sales, isn't it?

Since there is a first time, then the second ...... Maybe it will come soon?

…………

Thursday, February 25.

Huaxia Daily, which has long been regarded as the country's largest newspaper and is also recognized as the mouthpiece of the government, published a commentator's article on its front page with the headline "Our Nation Needs!"

So far, since the eleventh minute of the Spring Festival Gala shook the whole of China, the "Four Beauties Fever" after the whole year has reached the top!

Ask for a few more referral votes!

In addition, I really want to say that the "flooding" chapter in many people's mouths like this is really really brain-consuming, even more difficult than writing an album, writing about two people bickering, writing about two or three people flirting, and writing a monkey for Li Qian to pretend to slap in the face! )
