Chapter 363: Just the Beginning
In the European and American music scene, Li Xianhao's name has been frequently mentioned by the news media recently, and Warner Music has advertised Li Xianhao in major media magazines, making Li Xianhao, who is already famous, enter the eyes of many European and American musicians.
"The latest English album of the popular little king Jimmy Lee will be released on major music stations, so stay tuned for ......"
"Jimmy, a talented singer-songwriter from Asia, returns with an all-English album king......"
"Asia's popular little king JimmyLee will fight again on the B list, we will wait and see......"
"Grammy newcomer Jimmy Lee, new album, waiting for you to listen to ......"
“…………”
Several of the world's leading newspapers and magazines reported on the news of Li Xianhao's return with an English album in the entertainment section.
In addition to newspapers and magazines, TV news media have also reported on Li Xianhao's propaganda throughout North America during this period of time.
Warner Music even gave Li Xianhao a promotional position in a talk show in North America, and Li Xianhao used pure and fluent American English and humorous jokes in the show to conquer many live audiences and fans in front of the TV.
I knew from the news reports that Li Xianhao had come to the United States, but Taylor Swift couldn't meet Li Xianhao, because Li Xianhao was still in New York today, and he might go to Houston tomorrow.
After a week of running and publicity, the day finally arrived on August 1st.
Just after the early hours of the morning, Li Xianhao's album officially landed on major music websites and radio stations, as well as the new song promotion lists of music channels on major TV stations.
At the same time, the album also began to go on sale.
The fans, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately entered the venue to listen to the song, however. Li Xianhao was destined not to disappoint them.
The passionate generosity of "Fireork" is like a fireworks, so that everyone can't help but shout out after listening to it, and in this period of economic crisis and market downturn, such a song is undoubtedly very inspiring.
"hat~makes~you~beautiful", the lyrics and tunes are full of youthful flavor, and the style of the song is also very brainwashing, just like those brainwashing divine comedies. As soon as I heard this song, I couldn't forget it, and I wanted to listen to it a second or third time.
"Just~The~ay~you~are", this is a song full of sweet love, which makes those who want to fall in love like it more, especially young girls in North America, who are attracted by this song, fall into it and can't extricate themselves, and then sound like it repeats itself.
"As~long~As~you~love~me" is also a Justin Bieber youth and cute song, but it was also interpreted as a lyrical song by Li Xianhao.
The song "Don" is also a melodious song, which is very suitable for the North American music scene.
The rest of the songs are also the first masterpieces.
Therefore, as soon as the album was put on the shelves, it immediately aroused the love of many fans.
The title song "Fireork" is particularly popular because of the background of the times, and many fans who were not Li Xianhao before have also become Li Xianhao's fans because of this song.
As of Li Xianhao's press conference, this album has only been on the shelves for 10 hours, and it has already sold 80,000 copies.
Warner Music prepared a major new album launch for Li Xianhao on this day, and will also sign and sell the album on the spot, and the venue is the famous Madison Square Garden in New York.
After many days of publicity, almost all the North American music circles knew about it, and Li Xianhao's fans were also waiting at the scene early that day.
Madison Garden Plaza, Li Xianhao's press conference stage, in addition to hundreds of media reporters, there are countless fans rushed to the scene, among these fans, not only young people from Europe and the United States, but also loyal fans from South Korea and fans from Asian countries. There were more than 10,000 people gathered around the entire site.
Those loyal Korean fans of Li Xianhao spontaneously put up a long banner to support Li Xianhao, and the long banner said in Korean and English that Li Xianhao is always the first.
Because of the large number of people, the New York police were even dispatched to maintain order at the scene. What makes these American police officers wonder is why an Asian singer is so popular in the North American music scene.
At ten o'clock in the morning, the sun was shining and the weather was beautiful, and the release of Li Xianhao's second album in the United States officially began.
Li Xianhao, who was dressed beautifully, walked on the stage with McCarina and others.
As soon as Li Xianhao appeared, his handsome and charming appearance immediately made the fans present cheer, and the voice shook the sky shouting all kinds of Li Xianhao's titles.
The emotional fans also lifted the hearts of the police, for fear that some fans would be too excited and do something.
Looking at the large crowd of people pressed by the black pressure below, Li Xianhao obviously felt that the number of people present was much larger than his press conference last year.
Looking at the large crowd under the stage, McCarina's face also looked very satisfied.
"Thank you to all the media and Jimmy Lee fans for gathering here on this wonderful morning, and I am sure that today will be a day full of wonderful memories............ Next, I announce that JimmyLee's album release has officially begun...... "McAlina, as the vice president of Warner Music, first made an opening speech, and after a few minutes of speech, announced the official start of the press conference, and then handed over the right to speak to Li Xianhao.
"Thank you very much, there are so many journalists and friends who came to cheer, of course, I want to thank the fans who came to support you, thank you, I believe that this album will not disappoint you......"
Next, Li Xianhao began to introduce the album.
"This album is my second album and the first album of pure English songs, and the 10 songs in it are all original by myself, including some creative ...... of song MVs"
"The title song of this album is "Fire", but the other songs are not worse than this song, I believe that fans must have their favorite genres, and in this album, I guarantee that there are all ...... you like"
Li Xianhao spoke freely for a long time, basically introduced the album to everyone, and then accepted interviews and questions from reporters.
Li Xianhao calmly responded to the reporters' questions, and some reporters from lace news media asked about the relationship with Taylor Swift, but Li Xianhao also casually avoided it.
There are more than hundreds of reporters on the scene, so naturally it is impossible for everyone to ask, and then Li Xianhao also sang three songs, which ended the press conference, and then the live album was sold.
Because it didn't expect so many fans to come, Warner prepared 5,000 albums at the beginning, and through observation before the start of the press conference, there were at least tens of thousands of fans who came, so McAlina immediately decided to have another 10,000 albums sent over.
Li Xianhao cooperated with the sale of the album on the spot, signed autographs for those who needed to sign autographs, and those who took group photos would also choose to take a group photo, and they were busy until three o'clock in the afternoon, for five hours, Li Xianhao almost never rested.
But it's worth being busy, because Li Xianhao is approachable, the songs are good, and he is so talented, not only did the 15,000 albums at the press conference be sold out, but some people didn't even buy them, and Li Xianhao's approachable personality gained more fans' love.
After the press conference was completed, Li Xianhao went on a date with Taylor, but he didn't expect that this album would be so popular.
In just 24 hours, the sales of Li Xianhao's album reached 220,000 copies, almost 10,000 copies in an hour, making the entire Warner Music, especially McCarina, smile and can't close their mouths.
And the click-through rate of the MVs of several songs on Youtube is also surprisingly high. The number of hits of the title song "Fireork" reached a super high of 10 million hits in 24 hours.
In addition, another important indicator to test the popularity of a song or even an album is the North American Billboard chart. As soon as Li Xianhao's album was released, all the songs in it were on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, especially the title song "Fireork" was directly dropped to the third place in the Billboard Hot 100. "Just~the~ay~you~are" dropped to No. 8, and other songs were also on the charts.
There is no doubt that Li Xianhao's album is on fire, big on fire.
However, this is just the beginning.
