Chapter 404: Tune
After the sales of the second week came out, Ye Zhao's new album won the championship of the week without any suspense with a score of more than 600,000 copies.
Naturally, the album also achieved a two-week winning streak.
In addition, with this 600,000 addition, the album sold more than 2 million copies in just two weeks after its release, and entered the top 10 of the album annual chart in one go.
Even if there are still a few months left this year, there may still be two million best-selling albums, but with the momentum of this album, it is estimated that not only will it not be squeezed out of the top ten, but it will have to take advantage of the months before the end of the annual chart to squeeze out the talents in front of it.
There were no competitors of the same level in the week and the following week of the album's release, so this victory became a crushing without suspense, but even so, one million in the first week and two million in the second week, such a speed is enough to watch.
As early as the initial results, the music intelligence program had already begun to predict how much the album would sell by the end of the year, and where it could climb to the charts.
With the lyrics and songwriters in charge, this album brought Ye Zhao more than 200 million yen in royalties after only two weeks of release, which is almost equivalent to the salary that an ordinary person earns in a lifetime.
Therefore, in such an era, in the entertainment industry, there is no easier way to make money than a musician.
Similarly, with such a huge music market, it's no wonder that they can play on their own behind closed doors, and not only that, but it can also attract people from other countries to sharpen their heads and try to get in and take a bite of the soup.
At the same time that 200 million yen was scheduled to be earned, Ye Zhao spent a lot of money in order to buy her apartment in Yokohama from Fuji Ayako's hands.
The purchase of this apartment began as early as the end of August, after the matter was agreed with Ayako Fuji, but there were some complicated processes in the middle, so it has been carried out until now.
The apartment is in a good location, the house itself is well built, and the price is naturally very impressive, and the real estate agent helped to estimate it and gave a price of about 55 million yen.
During the entire process of real estate transfer, Fuji Ayako did not come forward, but entrusted her agent Mr. Kumagai to handle it on her behalf.
But even so, Ye Zhao didn't think that Fuji Ayako was unwilling to see him.
The reason why he is so sure is because of the "cold" description he said when he mentioned that he bought the house back from her at the original price.
There is only one reason why she is reluctant to come forward, that is, she does not want to sell the house full of memories to him through money transfer when she is face-to-face.
The so-called coldness is here, and she just doesn't want to have such a cold deal with Ye Zhao.
The transfer of the property was negotiated in advance by Ye Zhao and Fuji Ayako, and there was no bargaining in the middle, all in one go.
Mr. Kumagai also handled things neatly, and although he was handling the property on behalf of his own artist, he was not interested in questions such as why he wanted to sell the house, but he was dutiful and polite in completing the contract.
When the ownership of the house came into Ye Zhao's hands, and Ye Zhao also paid all the house price according to the price, the owner of this apartment changed from Fuji Ayako to him.
After the transaction, Ye Zhao and Mr. Kumagai greeted each other: "Good work, Mr. Kumagai. ”
"It's just a matter of duty. "Mr. Kumagai owes a debt.
"Next, if Mr. Kumagai is not busy, let's have a cup of coffee together?" Ye Zhao invited.
Mr. Kumagai thought for a moment, "In that case, then excuse me." ”
The two of them walked to the café in the opposite building, and after taking their seats, Ye Zhao took out a brown paper bag that had been prepared from his bag, gently put it on the table, and slowly pushed it towards Mr. Kumagai.
"What is this?" said Kumagai-san, puzzled.
"It's the score and the demo. Ye Zhaoyan explained succinctly, "If you can, please transfer this to Caizi-san, and let her listen to it." If you think it's okay, ask the lyricist to fill in a good word and sing it. ”
"This ...... That's so precious. Mr. Kumagai carefully picked up the paper bag, but did not open it in front of him. After thinking about it, he asked again: "Although it is a little presumptuous, but is this an agreement between Ye Zhaosang and Fujisang?"
"Yes, it was mentioned a long time ago. Ye Zhao said.
Mr. Kumagai gave a look of abrupt realization and nodded, "I see." I'll pass this on to Fuji-san. ”
In this paper bag, it was at that time that Ye Zhao asked Tomohiro Ueno to help compose the song of the shamisen.
This song originally belonged to Ayako Fuji, and it was in the original time, she released the single "Snow Deep" for the 10th anniversary of her debut in 1998.
It may be a bit cunning to give her the songs that belong to her. However, this song did come to mind because I realized the part of my relationship with her that was not tolerated by the world.
Moreover, because he had already made this song first, if he didn't deliver it now, this song would be put in his library as a so-called "waste song" and would not see the light of day.
After Mr. Kumagai took the song back, Ye Zhao received a call from Fuji Ayako, "I have already heard the song. ”
"Miss Daguan singing is rare, right?" Ye Zhao said deliberately.
"It's rare, it's the only one. ”
"Not necessarily," Ye Zhao joked, "Maybe one day I have a whim, and I will let the two of them sing and sing." ”
"That's going to be too messy. ”
"I don't think that's going to work. ”
Fuji Ayako called, naturally, for the sake of the song.
"It's a good piece of music, and I'll be careful with it. ”
"Well, I also think that this is a song that no one can sing well except for Ayako-san. This is the truth, of course.
From beginning to end, neither of them mentioned the transfer of the property that had just ended, and it was clear that they were absolute parties, but it was as if it had not happened from beginning to end.
After saying the tune, there was a brief silence on the phone for a few seconds.
Ye Zhao thought for a while, "That's right." ”
Fuji Ayako on the other end of the phone said "Huh?", ready to listen.
"Thank you Ayako-san for speaking for me at Sakamoto-san. Of course, Ye Zhao didn't just say this dry thank you, "During the recording, I chatted with Sakamoto-san about the collaborative album. ”
Although it seems that this collaborative album has no way to make it in a short period of time, Ye Zhao still mentioned it to Fuji Ayako. 2k reading web
