Jiang Xia was telling the truth, Xiao Xiaoxiao was right, Gong Shan's mental state was not good. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info3≠ eight 3≠ eight 3≠ read 3 ≠ book, .↗.o ●

The whole person looks like he is beating his spirit, and between his eyebrows, he can't hide his exhaustion and depression.

Knowing Gong Shan for so many years, Jiang Xia saw her for the first time.

The impression of Gong Shan, should always be that indifferent appearance, when tired, he rests on his stomach, when he is happy, he laughs, and when he is unhappy, he pouts and looks at the ceiling.

Gong Shan, who looked melancholy like this, Jiang Xia was very curious about what happened.

Gong Shan sat on another sofa, picked up the cup and said, "Is it obvious?"

"Obviously, it's written on the face, what happened?" Jiang Xia asked, "Someone bullied you?" shouldn't it, it should be a matter of the heart, what is it?"

Gong Shan shook his head and said, "It's nothing, it's just that there are some things that I can't figure out." ”

"Tell me?" Jiang Xia suggested.

Gong Shan looked at the ceiling and sighed: "Actually, it's very simple, the album sales are only more than 400,000 a month, which makes me wonder if I'm no longer suitable for singing." ”

"How is it possible, you can't be blamed for the market downturn. Jiang Xia spoke for Gong Shan, "This year's sales champion may be yours, didn't you see that He Ming announced the release of an EP, and the sales volume is only more than 100,000 copies, your album sales are already very good." ”

"It's not the same. Gong Shan smiled bitterly, "The album market is sluggish, and you know the reason is that it is because of your Chinese style that has suppressed the market." Everyone's expectations for your Chinese style should be very high, this album has Chinese style songs, and the quality is not worse than your Dongfeng Po, or even a little better, but it still can't save anything. It doesn't seem to be useful, the initial results are so good thousands of miles away, and there is a preemptive version of the MV, but the results are still not good. ”

Jiang Xia was about to say something, but Gong Shan continued to speak: "At that time, I began to wonder, is it because my strength is not good? Your song must be no problem, it is so popular on the Internet. If it's not your song, it can only be that I don't approve of it, otherwise, it wouldn't have only sold more than 400,000 copies. ”

"I don't blame you, it's the whole market that is sluggish. Today's market trend is a cliff-like decline, and it can still sell 500,000 this year, and next year, I estimate that 300,000 is enough. In a few years, those who can sell 100,000 albums can be regarded as big sellers, and 200,000 copies will be able to hold a celebration party and win the first place in sales. Jiang Xia comforted.

He is telling the truth, in his previous life, in his era, even Jay Chou's albums and physical albums sold about 200,000 copies at most, and they really couldn't sell any further. The rest of the people are not as good as Jay, they can sell 50,000 copies, which can be regarded as the sky.

The rise of the Internet has blurred music copyrights, and piracy is spreading everywhere, making it more and more difficult for musicians to do. The same goes for novels, in the age of the Internet, as long as you want to read them, you can find pirated resources. How many online authors earn money for food and clothing, and they also suffer from piracy.

Comparatively speaking, the pirated resources of TV series and movies are okay, and as long as the online self-made dramas are not uploaded all at once, the spread of piracy is relatively slow. It's the same with movies, during the release period of the movie, if you look for pirated copies on the Internet, all you can find is the gun version, the picture quality is blurry, and you can't watch it.

So Gong Shan's worries are completely unnecessary, this era when physical albums can't be sold will come sooner or later, but this world comes a little slower, a little sudden, and a little unprepared.

Gong Shan listened to Jiang Xia's comfort, shook his head and said: "At least, it is not that era, the current market potential should be between 700,000 and 800,000, but I haven't been able to sell to that market limit, or I haven't done well enough." ”

"It's because they don't know how to appreciate. Jiangxia said hardly, "You sing your songs well and make your music well, won't you just get it? Why do you want so much? I'm afraid that the fans won't support you? Impossible, I inquired about the ticket situation of your concert, not to mention that all of them were sold, and ninety percent of them were sold." ”

Gong Shan was silent for a moment, turned his head to look at Jiang Xia and said, "I suddenly understand your thoughts, you personally don't care much about those sales, right?"

"I can't say I don't care, I can only say that I don't care. Jiangxia said.

Seeing that Gong Shan was silent, Jiang Xia continued: "My first album was very poor at the beginning, and I have nothing to say, no way, everyone doesn't like it. Later, the sales broke through, and I was stunned. This is all very normal, if the sales are really the initial situation, then I must change the style of this album, and it is precisely because it is still successful that I dare to maintain the style. Your last album was a success, and it's the same thing that this album keeps you in style. The sales problem is not you, not me, but the market. ”

Gong Shan didn't seem to hear Jiang Xia's words, but said: "I'm wondering, is this style of song no longer suitable for me to sing? Do I have to continue to transform? Because everyone doesn't like this? Where should I turn if I transform again?"

As if talking to himself, Gong Shan frowned, looking like he couldn't understand.

Jiang Xia looked at Gong Shan, and seemed to understand that the crux of the problem was there, so he dragged Gong Shan and pulled her back from her trance.

"You don't have to think about transformation, you don't have to think about anything. I'm here, I'll help you get each of your albums, when it's time to transform, which direction to go, I have a plan. Jiang Xia said, "Although I don't know much about the market, I know what songs are good songs, as long as they are good songs, there must be people who like them." ”

Gong Shan stared at him in a daze and said, "I don't believe you very much." ”

"Why don't you believe me?" Jiang Xia asked rhetorically.

Gong Shan said: "The album you prepared for me didn't sell enough for 500,000 in a month, how can I believe you?"

Such a powerful reason made Jiang Xia suddenly speechless.

Obviously, it is impossible for her to listen to Gong Shan's explanation of the market now.

This kind of state, Jiang Xia had in his previous life, it was a typical drill horn, inexplicably lost his self-confidence, he felt as if he was abandoned by the whole world, he felt that he couldn't succeed no matter how hard he tried, and it seemed that he was born a failure. After drilling this bull's horn, I really feel that life is boring.

"Why can't you believe me?" Jiang Xia asked rhetorically, "Our studio is developing so smoothly, to tell you the truth, my credit is not small, right?"

"Well, you have a lot of credit. Gong Shan nodded. She also knew that if there was no Jiang Xia, in the first year of the studio's establishment, she would be killed by Sheng Shi's tricks. What Ding Yiyi said to Jiang Xia, naturally some people also told Gong Shan, analyzing the great role played by Jiang Xia in the development of the studio.

Gong Shan naturally knew it, so after the album "Look at Me Seventy-two Changes" sold more than one million, she thanked Jiang Xia very excitedly, and even kissed Jiang Xia. has known Jiang Xia for more than 20 years, and that was the first time she kissed Jiang Xia and took the initiative.

Jiang Xia said: "I have a lot of credit, I can bring the studio to success, but can I bring you to success? Or rather, in fact, you are already in the process of success, but the way of success is different." You see album sales as a success, but why don't you see concert tickets as a success?"

"Huh?" Gong Shan sighed.

Jiang Xia continued: "There is more than one way to judge success. If you hold a concert and 20,000 people come, the lowest ticket price can buy you three or even four albums. One concert is equal to a minimum of 60,000 albums. You've got seven concerts this year, six, seven and forty-two, and that's 420,000 albums. ”

"That's not interesting. Gong Shan shook his head with a smile, looking disapproving.

Jiang Xia asked: "Why is it boring? How can it be boring? This is also an algorithm, isn't it? You hold a concert, there are so many people, isn't it more accomplished than if you were recording and singing dryly in the recording studio? What era do you still rely on album sales to get a sense of achievement? Look at the hot song list, how many of your songs occupy? This is your strength, album sales, will get worse and worse, all think like you, He Mingxuan, a first-line star, only 100,000 sales, don't you have to quit the music scene?"

Gong Shan was silent and did not speak. 8☆8☆.＄.

Jiang Xia leaned over, took Gong Shan's hand, and said softly: "Shanshan, no matter what you think, the first thing you need to know is that you are very powerful. When you were a child, you didn't admit defeat, you were always strong, you were always comparing yourself to yourself. You think that your last album sold 1.3 or 4 million people, and this one has to break 1.5 million. So you can't think about it, I understand, but it's not about competing with yourself. The third-grade teacher gave a junior high school question, no matter how strong you are, you can't solve it, right? The situation is different, what you need to do is to get the first in the third grade, not the third grade to go to the junior high school to get the first. ”

"Since they all won the first place, why can't they go to junior high school to get the first place?" Gong Shan looked at Jiang Xia and asked.

Jiang Xia smiled: "Because, the situation in junior high school is different from that of the third grade." The original market was junior high school, and now the market is the third grade, and your competitor is not the junior high school market, but the current third grade market. Your opponent is the person who released the album this year, not last year, not the year before that. ”

"Oh. Gong Shan held back such a word for a long time.

Jiang Xiamo held Gong Shan's hand and said: "This year, in May, your album sales will be unbeatable." The second ranked one only sold 200,000 copies, right? You sold more than 400,000 yuan so melancholy, why don't they jump off the building? So, relax, don't worry. ”

"I'm still worried. Gong Shan sighed and said, "I can't create any good songs anymore, the two songs I wrote were completely drowned in the waves, and they didn't even turn up the waves." Now that you're here, you can write good songs, what if one day, you are in the same situation as me?"

Hearing Gong Shan say this, Jiang Xia laughed, put Gong Shan's hand next to his face, and said indifferently and confidently: "It's okay, the situation you are worried about will not appear, because I am Jiang Xia, a unique Jiang Xia." ”
