Chapter 0228 He heard that he was making money
As Jonas stepped into the company, he heard a burst of shouting from the distribution department. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Okay, Mr. Hope, we'll get you the supply as soon as possible, well, 100,000, yes, I've already recorded it!"
ā¦ā¦
Words like that went on and on, and Time Warner really hadn't experienced it in years.
Walking into his office, the secretary and the head of the distribution department had been waiting for a long time.
"What's the situation?" Although there were already some speculations in his mind, Jonas asked as soon as possible.
"Mr. Director, this album of the Rangers has been filled with 1.5 million copies according to your request, and it is expected to be out in about a week. Based on yesterday's first-day sales of 330,000 copies, this sales are basically in line with our plan, you know, the maximum sales of an album is in the first week, and our distribution department originally planned to look at today's sales and then decide when the second batch of records will be produced.
But what I didn't expect was that starting this morning, record stores all over the country suddenly called, asking us to transfer more records as soon as possible, saying that their original inventory was sold out in less than half an hour this morning, and now the Wanderers Band has caught fire, so I would like to ask Mr. Director, is our second batch of records starting to be filled now, and in addition, how much do we need to fill!?" The director of the distribution department looked at him with excitement after saying what happened.
"The first batch of 500,000 records was distributed to them, and 330,000 copies were sold yesterday, which means that in less than half an hour this morning, the remaining 170,000 records were sold out! According to the company's plan, how many goods have been allocated to various places this morning, and is there still stock in the warehouse?" Jonas held back the excitement in his heart and asked the distribution department about the response plan.
"Yesterday was 330,000 sales, so at 6 o'clock this morning, we allocated another 500,000 copies to various places in the second batch of goods, and at 9:40 a.m., I also allocated the remaining 500,000 sheets, and now there is no inventory in the company!"
"Well, you're doing a good job, we must not let the seller run out of stock now, so let's fill the second batch of five million sheets, let the factory fill us at full capacity, and strive to spread another 500,000 sheets before tonight!" Jonas made a decision after a little hesitation.
"Mr. Director, today is Sunday, and tomorrow morning, the new Billboard charts and the charts of major music websites will be refreshed. I think they probably already know the sales of the Wanderers album by now, at least the music sites already know the sales of the digital version of the album, so I'm sure that the Rangers will have a number of songs on the charts tomorrow morning, and there will be a blowout on Monday, whether it is physical or digital album sales.
According to the speed of the factory, our supply speed will face a severe test, sir, do you want to find an outside OEM factory to place an order?" The director of the distribution department has rich experience and has a more comprehensive consideration for this kind of thing.
It only took a moment of thought for Jonas to understand that he was not without purpose.
Seriously, most of the twelve songs created by Li Yue are against the sky and classics, and most of them have the strength to reach the top of the billboard list. Therefore, his consideration is definitely more important than that.
"You can ask for an OEM factory!"
"Okay, sir, I'll go down and arrange it right away!" nodded and hurried out to make arrangements.
"Has the total digital downloads been updated?" Jonas asked, standing up and walking to the window, rubbing his chin as he rubbed his chin.
"The data has been received as of 8 o'clock this morning, and the total number of paid downloads has exceeded 10 million!" said Miss Secretary and Yourong.
"Tsk...... The company has Li in charge, and it is about to usher in a big rise!"
Jonas muttered to himself, and his heart was also surging.
The cost of paid downloads of digital albums is $10, and according to the sharing agreement, Time Warner can get 80%, and then it will also share 30% of the licensing fee to songwriter Li Yue, and the company can get as much as 50%.
The total number of downloads exceeded 10 million, and for 10 million, Li Yue has created a business opportunity worth 100 million. It's just an album, the company just paid a little resources, and earned back 50 million US dollars in just two days, what is the difference between this Nima and grabbing money.
Moreover, once these twelve songs are on the major charts in the United States, there will inevitably be a wave of large-scale paid downloads.
However, he has no regrets about his choice.
To make money, his family still has a lot of channels, but Time Warner's wave of unnatural scenery is not something that money can replace.
"You say, wouldn't it be too hasty to start preparing Lee's solo album now?!" Jonas suddenly asked, making Miss Secretary a little confused.
āā¦ā¦ā
Seeing that the latter didn't know how to answer, Jonas stroked his forehead in annoyance.
I'm really confused, how can I ask such a question about the secretary!How can she explain this kind of thing!?
Taking out his mobile phone, Jonas called Li Yue.
"Lee, where are you now?"
"Rest in the room!" Li Yue's lazy voice came, obviously still lying on the bed!
Jonas raised his hand to look at the watch, the corners of his mouth twitching.
It was almost eleven o'clock, and Li Yue was still in bed.
Moreover, I reported the results to him yesterday, and he didn't care about it at all, and he was still in the mood to sleep lazy, I'll go!
"The Rangers have become popular! The first batch of 1.5 million records has been distributed, and I just told the distribution department to fill another 5 million records, what do you think?!"
"Oh! I know, you just decide, I fully trust you!" Li Yue knew that he didn't have the slightest sincerity when he heard this, maybe he hadn't woken up yet, maybe he hadn't heard his words clearly!
"Lee, the first 1.5 million records of the Wanderers' debut album physical record will probably be sold out today. Moreover, the paid downloads of your digital albums have exceeded the 10 million mark, and you can get nearly $30 million in songwriter royalties for this alone!" Jonas explained earnestly.
"Oh! got it!...... well!?what?nearly $30 million!?" Li Yue, who had been nervous recently, suddenly dissipated his sleepiness when he heard that he was about to receive $30 million.
You must know that the Fifth Dimension Network Development Company is a bottomless pit, and the acquisition of ATV is about to face the second payment, and he really has no money in his hands. (To be continued.) )
