Chapter 119: The Eve of the Storm (2-in-1)

The next day, it was still light. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

At this time, Yanjing in the early morning is particularly quiet and peaceful.

In the midst of this tranquility, there is a place where the scene is very different from the past.

This place is the largest album distribution center in Yanjing, and every time a new album is to be released in Yanjing, most of the video stores or bookstores and so on come here to pick up the goods.

The one who controls this place is an album channel in Yanjing, which controls nearly seventy or eighty percent of Yanjing's album channel market.

At this moment, most of the people in Yanjing are still asleep, but there are dozens of people around the door of this album distribution center, and the crowd is talking about it, which looks very lively.

"What's the matter, Boss Zhang, you're here too?"

"That's right, I received a call from Boss Shi last night, saying that an album has arrived today?

"No, I also received a call from Boss Shi, so I came early in the morning to take a look. ā€

"This situation is rare, could it be that this time the king and queen have released an album?"

"No, I haven't heard anything about that lately. ā€

"My good man, it's just that this battle is too big, I took a look, almost all the owners of the video store were present!"

"Really, it seems that it is really possible that the king and queen will release a new album, otherwise Boss Shi would not have made such a big battle. ā€

"Well, that's right, every time we find our own time to get the album, now that there is such a unified pick-up situation, only the explanation that the king and queen release the album can make sense. ā€

"If that's the case, there's another amount of money to be made..."

......

At this time, the boss Shi in everyone's words was holding an album CD in his hand, and he was sitting in the co-pilot of a truck and wanted to scold his mother.

"What a plane! Playing with me?"

Yesterday afternoon, he suddenly got news from Huaxin Media, telling him to pick up the goods at four or five o'clock this morning.

Say that there is a very important album that needs to be spread all over Yanjing this morning!

Significant?

Is it so urgent? There was no warning beforehand?

Hearing the serious tone of the people on Huaxin Media's side, Boss Shi immediately thought that this time it was another superstar of Huaxin Media who released an album!

So, he immediately notified all the retailers yesterday and arranged everything properly.

Then this morning he got up early in the morning and drove over with people in a truck.

Who knows......

Conquest?

Who is Ai Zhen?

And the retail price is 30?

Holy!

He originally thought it was the album of the king and queen of Huaxin!

But when he saw the first look of the album, the photo of the girl on the cover that he had never even seen, made him really want to cry without tears!

The point is that such a singer he has never seen before is sold for 30RMB!

You're kidding me!

Although Boss Shi was dissatisfied in his heart, he came here, and he didn't dare not give face to Huaxin Media, besides, all the owners of the video store had been contacted...

"Well, let's send this album first. Boss Shi smiled bitterly, and could only reluctantly accept this reality.

Fortunately, this time, Huaxin Media released the goods directly and did not charge him any money such as a deposit.

......

It didn't take long for Boss Shi's truck to drive to its destination.

"Look!"

"It's coming, it's coming!"

"It's Boss Shi. ā€

The appearance of the truck immediately made the people present look sideways.

"Bosses, morning. After Boss Shi got off the truck, he squeezed out a smile on his face that was more ugly than crying, and shouted.

"Boss Shi, it's early!"

"Boss Shi, is there another big star who has released an album this time?"

"Yes, let's come over to get the goods so early, it must be a big deal!"

"Is it Na Ying, or Chen Ming, or ......?"

Hearing this, Boss Shi waved his hand and interrupted, "Neither." ā€

"Huh? Who could that be?"

Hearing this, the audience immediately burst into exclamations.

I don't even know any!

Boss Shi secretly cursed in his heart, but he still said in a different tone: "It should be a new singer of Huaxin Media." Don't worry about it, let's call for people to move the goods, a total of 100,000 albums, according to the size of each store, I have allocated a number to everyone, you can discuss. ā€

What the!

Just a new singer?

Hearing this, many people present were a little unhappy.

A new singer actually let them work so hard to come here to pick up the goods early in the morning, before dawn?

"Forget it, since you're here, let's take the album back. Someone opened his mouth to explain.

"What else else?"

"Well, take it. ā€

At this time, Boss Shi continued to speak: "By the way, the retail price of this album is thirty yuan, everyone remembers it clearly." In addition, the music that has been playing in your store these days is mainly promoting this album. ā€

"What? retail price 30?"

"Boss Shi, you're not kidding me!"

"Who would spend this money to buy such a new singer!

"Who's going to buy it?"

Hearing this, Boss Shi pursed his lips, of course he understands this truth!

But these are all required by Huaxin Media, this is his big financier, if he offends Huaxin Media, and Huaxin Media's album will not give him a channel in the future, then something will happen!

After a pause and a little thought, Boss Shi spoke: "Well, it's just two days, if it doesn't work, you can take down this album!"

"Two days, well, well!"

"Boss Shi, next time it's an album of this kind of new singer, don't call me!"

"Yes, this kind of album of new singers, can you make money? This early in the morning came over and wasted my energy!"

The owners of various video stores and bookstores present complained one by one.

Boss Shi could only listen helplessly to the complaints of these bosses, and even he felt that today's matter was a bit of a waste of time, so he couldn't talk back at all.

But fortunately, this batch of albums was then distributed in an orderly manner.

Similar scenes are being played out in many cities.

Under Huaxin Media's reckless move, one million albums were distributed to some major large and medium-sized cities across the country early this morning!

At the same time, various newspapers such as "Yanjing Daily" and "Entertainment Events" in Yanjing for the latest day are being sent to various sales points in a step-by-step manner after yesterday's emergency adjustment and printing.

......

Gu Sisi is an ordinary employee of the company.

After getting up in the morning, washing up, and simply dressing herself, she went out.

Every morning on the way to work, she has two fixed habits.

The first one is to buy two hot buns at the breakfast stall downstairs at home.

The second is to buy a "big entertainment events" newspaper on the way to the company, because she personally likes to read news about it.

As long as it's a working day, she will definitely do these two habits.

Today, of course, is no exception.

When Gu Sisi arrived at the company, she was carrying a plastic bag in her left hand, which contained two hot buns, and on her right hand, she was holding a newspaper of "entertainment events".

While eating steamed buns, Gu Sisi looked at the newspaper in his hand with relish.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, the appearance of a name made Gu Sisi's eyes light up.

Yang Yuying?

For Yang Yuying, Gu Sisi simply likes her songs too much!

Didn't you say that you faded out of the music scene?

Don't......

Coming back?

Immediately, Gu Sisi browsed excitedly.

"The reporter of this newspaper learned a definite news: Yang Yuying had a brief communication with the media yesterday, and Yang Yuying herself emphasized that she quit the music scene!"

When he saw the first sentence, Gu Sisi pursed his lips unhappily, and the expectation in his heart was instantly shattered.

As for why she insisted on quitting the music scene so much, Yang Yuying did not give an exact reason this time. ā€

However, Yang Yuying herself in the final stage of communication, specially recommended an album to us, for this album, Yang Yuying personally gave it a very high evaluation, the album is called "Conquest", interested friends, you can listen to it. ā€

In the blink of an eye, Gu Sisi finished reading this short news.

Although I didn't understand Yang Yuying's move to quit when she was in full swing, she still silently blessed her in her heart.

"Conquest?" When he saw these two words, Gu Sisi's face was thoughtful.

If she remembers correctly, this seems to be the first time Yang Yuying has recommended other albums, right?

It's still highly rated?

"Stains. ā€

Gu Sisi smacked his lips, and felt a little curious about this album called "Conquest".

But it's just a hint of curiosity.

She will not buy this album because of Yang Yuying's recommendation.

After all, everyone's preferences for songs are different.

Gu Sisi, who retracted his thoughts, continued to look at the newspaper.

"Huh?"

After reading a few more news reports, Gu Sisi was stunned.

Chen Ming even recommended this album as well...

And that Mao Ning also recommended...

Manchu Army...

......

What's going on!!

Why are so many big stars recommending the album "Conquest"?

Gu Sisi, who came back to his senses, quickly glanced at it.

Only then did I find out that half of the newspaper page was about the "Conquest" album!

Gu Sisi was shocked!

She pays attention to entertainment news every day, and this is the first time she has seen this situation!

"What kind of album is this? ā€

If she saw Yang Yuying's recommendation before, she didn't take it seriously.

After all, everyone's preferences are different, and Yang Yuying thinks that the album is good, Gu Sisi may not necessarily like it.

But!

There are so many celebrities who recommend it now?

Nothing like this has ever happened before!

This situation now has made Gu Sisi have a strong interest in this album called "Conquest".

"Well, I'll go to the audio store at lunchtime. ā€

Gu Sisi secretly made this decision in her heart.

......

In Yanjing, in addition to the "entertainment events" newspaper, there are many other newspapers that have similar news.

Obviously, Yanjing at this time shows that the wind is calm, but in fact, the undercurrent is surging.

And Yanjing is just a microcosm of many cities in China after Huaxin Media's efforts.

......

Zhang Yu is the owner of a small video store in Yanjing.

Because the store is not in the downtown area of Yanjing, and the scale of the video store is not large, this time he only got 2,000 copies of the "Conquest" album.

1,000 CDs, 1,000 cassette tapes.

After moving these albums back to the store, Zhang Yu looked unhappy.

I ran over early in the morning with great interest, who knew that it would be an album from such an unknown singer!

"What a, a waste of Lao Tzu's time!"

After casually putting dozens of "Conquest" on the shelves, Zhang Yu didn't bother to care.

As for what Boss Shi said, he wanted to put this album in the store and focus on promoting it for two days.

He has long been left behind!

In his opinion, who will buy an album of a new artist with a name unknown?

And it's so expensive!

So he didn't want to waste any more time on this broken album! Instead of promoting this album, why not play the song of the former diva in the store, maybe wait for the customers to hear it and buy it?

And Zhang Yu's thoughts and practices are the inner thoughts of almost all the audio-visual store owners in Yanjing at this time.

None of the video store owners took the album seriously.

......

Because there is no digital music on the Internet now, piracy is not as rampant as in later generations.

So at this point in time, 1997 is the heyday of the record album industry, and there are many high-selling platinum records in the music industry every year.

Because of this, there are so many video stores.

As time went by, the various video stores welcomed one customer after another, but the "Conquest" album did not attract any attention.

Even if some guests found this album and were attracted by the album cover, but after the guests learned that they wanted 30RMB a piece, this beautiful-looking "Conquest" album was put back on the shelves by the guests.

"Conquest", which is placed on the shelves of various video stores, has completely become an ornament.

An hour or two passed, and not a single one was sold!

This kind of result made those video store owners scoff at the album.

...

In the blink of an eye, it was noon.

During this time of day, because it is lunch time, the traffic of the audio store is the least time of the day.

And Zhang Yu's shop was almost without customers at this point in time, so he was ready to take advantage of this time to eat lunch.

Zhang Yu just opened the lunch box and reached out to pick up the chopsticks.

Suddenly, several women rushed in from outside.

"Boss, do you have a Conquest album?" one of the women asked bluntly.
