Finally, people have been waiting for the 13th of January.

According to the traditional release schedule in the Chinese music scene, from August to October every year, that is, during the summer vacation, the best-selling time of the record, so the most singers release films during this time period, and the competition is very fierce.

There are also many singers who will deliberately avoid this peak season for releases, so as not to be affected by other powerful singers.

In addition to the summer vacation, January to March is also a popular time because it is in time for the Spring Festival and winter holidays.

At this time of the year, the most concerned are naturally Fang Tianyu and Sun Mudong, although there are also some other singers who have released films during this period, but in the waves rolled by Sun Mudong and Fang Tianyu, these singers are a little overshadowed.

Almost the entire Chinese music scene is staring at this good show, which is related to whether Sun Mudong can rush to the top line and become another shining star in the music scene.

Second, Fang Tianyu, who is a newcomer in the music scene but more eye-catching than a veteran singer, was publicly called out by Sun Mudong, but he was not stunned at all, and responded to the battle in a grand manner.

What's more, there is a fight between the Venus Group and Tianlong Records in the back, so this battle can't be unattractive.

Everyone in the circle knows that the sales of a record, under normal circumstances, it takes half a year to a year to fully reflect the potential, so to measure the sales of a record, everyone has a conventional deadline, that is, one year.

Within a year, how many copies of each record can be sold in China is the data of the major sales charts of the year included in the statistics and ranked.

As for the sales after a year, or overseas sales, they are only counted in the total sales of this album, and are not included in the sales chart of that year.

Therefore, it will take a year before the dust settles whether Sun Mudong can exceed 10 million in sales of a single album within the year and become a superstar.

It's just that whether a record can sell tens of millions can basically be predicted by the sales volume of the first month of release.

For example, Feng Shichuan and Wu Qingping, several super first-line superstars, whose albums exceeded 10 million sales, sold no less than 3 million copies in the first month of release.

Therefore, whether or not three million copies can be sold in the first month has become the threshold of whether it can break through the threshold of 10 million sales in the eyes of many industry insiders.

And Sun Mudong and Fang Tianyu want to separate the winners and losers in the record market, and basically they can see the difference in the first month.

Thanks to the importance of cultural copyright in China in this time and space, the piracy of various cultural commodities has been greatly curbed, so the development of the entertainment industry is much more prosperous than the world in Fang Tianyu's previous life.

Fang Tianwu remembered that in his previous life, when digital music had not yet risen and physical records were still the main carrier of all kinds of music, it was already remarkable for a king and diva-level singer to have an annual sales of three million records in China.

And in this time and space, three million record sales are just the standard for measuring a second-tier singer.

A few days ago, Sun Mudong's Journey to the East and Fang Tianyu's My Future is Not a Dream have been sent from Tianlong Records and Venus Group to distributors all over the world, including major chain audio-visual stores and bookstores.

It's just that as a first-line retailer, these people have their own market predictions for each record, and first-line retailers everywhere generally think that Sun Mudong's records will sell better than Fang Tianyu, so in terms of purchases, they basically take the goods in a ratio of seven or three.

Tianlong Records was very confident in the sales of Sun Mudong's Journey to the East, so the first batch of records was as high as 5 million copies, so as to ensure that distributors and retailers around the world had sufficient supply in the first month.

In fact, Venus also recorded 3 million copies of My Future is not a dream, but the number of orders fed back from all over the world is less than 1 million.

For a newcomer, it is very powerful to sell millions of copies in the first month of the album's release, because the sales of one million in the first month can basically sell more than five million copies in a year.

So in the eyes of retailers, they have overestimated the market potential of Fang Tianyu's album enough.

In Beijing, in the Yongfa Audio-visual City of China Trade Plaza, employees in uniform are busy putting Journey to the East and My Future is not a dream on the most conspicuous shelves in the store.

The album cover of Journey to the East uses a close-up photo of Sun Mudong's side face, and the black and white cover and Sun Mudong's residual side face make the packaging of this album reveal a vicissitudes of life.

My future is not a dream, but under a blue sky and white clouds in the telescope, Fang Tianwu turned his back to the camera, holding a guitar high in his right hand, which looked clear and blue.

Yongfa Audio-Visual is the largest chain of audio-visual stores in China, with flagship stores in various provinces and cities, and the number of branches is claimed to be more than that of Xinzhong Bookstore, the largest state-owned bookstore.

So to a certain extent, the sales of a record in Yongfa Video can reflect its market in the national market.

All major record companies have ties with Yongfa Audio, so that they can get the record sales of their singers from Yongfa Audiovisual at any time.

Yongfa Audio-Visual City, located in the China Trade Plaza, is the largest flagship store of Yongfa Audio-Visual in Beijing, occupying more than 1,000 square meters in the large commercial center of the China Trade Plaza, in which you can find all kinds of audio-visual products from songs, films and television at home and abroad.

Even vinyl records, which have been eliminated from the market and are now only collected by niche consumers, can be found here.

Gao Jianyi is the store manager of this Yongfa Audio-Visual City, he started as a small employee and walked to the position of store manager, which took five years. In the past five years, he has been exposed to so many audio-visual products at home and abroad, and he has changed from an ordinary listener to a practitioner with high musical literacy.

Witnessing the ups and downs of many singers' records in the market, he often boasted in front of his staff how much market potential a record had.

Because he can really judge the approximate sales of many records, the clerks admire him.

At this time, it was Sun Mudong's popular title song Travels to the East that was playing in the store, and Gao Jianyi was also leisurely drinking coffee behind the cash register.

The city doesn't open until half past ten, and it's still half an hour away, so Gao Jianyi has time to enjoy his favorite latte.

"Store manager, haven't we already heard Fang Tianyu's album yesterday? You said that Fang Tianyu's new song is even better than Sun Mudong's, so why is the purchase in our store, Journey to the East so much more than my future is not a dream. ”

A female clerk in her early twenties came to the cashier and asked Gao Jianyi.

This female clerk is called Jingjing, she is quite delicate, and her figure is relatively petite, and she looks soft and weak, which can arouse men's desire to protect.

Seeing Jingjing, Gao Jianyi immediately showed a smile and said: "Oh Jingjing, how many times have you said it, just call me Brother Yi, the store manager and store manager, it sounds like a lot of things." ”

Jingjing said a little shyly: "This is in the store." ”

"What about the store? With me, who would dare to say anything?" Gao Jianyi smiled hesitantly: "Come, call Brother Shengyi to listen." ”

"Art...... Brother Yi. Jingjing's voice called him like a gnat.

"Hey!" Gao Jianyi replied beautifully.

I saw a somewhat playful look on his face, and said with a smile: "Indeed, Journey to the East and My Future is not a dream, we have all heard it, Fang Tianyu's song is indeed better than Sun Mudong's, especially the one about winter, I can already imagine that if this song is played in the café, the guests will listen to it while drinking coffee, it will be an excellent enjoyment." ”

Jingjing couldn't help nodding, she also liked the song about winter, especially now that it was a cold winter, listening to this song in such a season, it made her heart tremble.

However, Fang Tianwu is still a newcomer after all, and Sun Mudong is now second only to the existence of the four superstar singers, and his strength has been tested by the market for a long time. Over the years, Sun Mudong's sales of each album have basically not been less than six million, and he is only one record that breaks 10 million, so he can justifiably rush up. ”

Gao Jianyi said: "For so many years, Sun Mudong's fans have been looking forward to this moment, and the quality of his current Journey to the East has not disappointed us, I think Sun Mudong's fans alone can create more than five million fans."

As for Fang Tianyu, I don't understand that he has appeared frequently during this time, but he has not promoted the new songs in the album at all, not a single one! Have you surfed the Internet today? Sun Mudong's twelve songs in this new album have all been put on Little Bird Music, and the response can be said to be very good!

As for Fang Tianyu, except for the few songs he sang on the Voice of Youth before, not a single new song was put on, and even if it was the old song on Little Bird Music, it was still a live version, not an official studio version.

If you want to listen to Fang Tianyu's new songs, you can only buy his records. Who does he think he is? Is it Feng Shichuan or Wu Qingping? Say I have a new album, and people have to rush to sell his records?"

Speaking of this, Gao Jianyi shook his head and said: "Venus is too, they are all old giants, why don't you know to help him promote his new songs?"

Jingjing said at this time: "Shop...... Brother Yi, I don't agree with you. I think a good song is a good song, even if it is not promoted, as long as people listen to it, they will support it with practical actions! Sun Mudong's new songs are good, but Fang Tianyu's is obviously better, I feel it myself, Sun Mudong's songs have been heard, forget it, there is nothing for me to reminisce.

But what do you say about Fang Tianhu's song? I felt that his song could be sung to my heart, and after singing, I kept repeating these melodies and lyrics in my mind, and I couldn't forget it for a long time. ”

"This ......" Gao Jianyi didn't know how to answer.

He really wanted to tell Jingjing that with his years of sales experience, no matter how good a song is, it still needs to be promoted. Moreover, if there is a singer with enough influence to sing, the market effect will be much better.

And it is obvious that Fang Tianwu didn't even release a new song before the album was released, he was too confident.

"Otherwise, Jingjing, let's make a bet. Gao Jianyi suddenly smiled and said: "Just bet on who sells better of Sun Mudong and Fang Tianyu's records in the first month, if it is Fang Tianwu who sells better, then I will invite you to eat three meals, if it is Sun Mudong who sells better, you have to invite me to eat three meals, how about it?"

Jingjing didn't find Gao Jianyi's routine at all, just thinking that Fang Tianyu's songs were obviously better, how could she not sell Sun Mudong?

For the songs she liked, Jingjing didn't hesitate for long before nodding and agreeing to the bet, not finding the slightest smugness in Gao Jianyi's eyes.
