Chapter 690: I'm the Reddest
The music video for "Roly poly" was shot very quickly, not to mention fifteen minutes long, but it was shot in only three days.
After all, there is no special scene, just some retro costumes.
The park in Hiyama and the nightclubs of the 90s built in the studio are all there is to it.
Baolan's father Jeon Young-lu and mother Lee Mi-young also agreed to act, and there was no starring fee.
The two are very concerned about Baolan, knowing that although their daughter is the eldest sister in T-ara, she belongs to the people who are taken care of, so they hope that this can make the company pay more attention to their daughter.
Feeling their kindness, Shi Zhenqiu remembered it in his heart, and when the time was right, he would give back to Baolan.
Now that the MV has also been filmed, Shi Zhenqiu checked it again, and it is basically the same as the original, so he is relieved.
At this point, the return of T-ara will no longer be delayed.
Shi Zhenqiu gave an order, and Mystic89 acted quickly and worked with all its might for the return of T-ara.
Regarding T-ara's imminent return, the outside world has long been aware of the rumors and is also very concerned.
After all, it is one of the best girl groups today, and it is rumored that Shi Zhenqiu has come up with a killer move this time, so everyone is waiting to see how far T-ara can go.
To this end, all relevant parties also took action early and reached an agreement with Mystic89. As soon as T-ara returns, there are countless trips to start having.
Shi Zhenqiu waited for another two days, and tomorrow will be the first weekend of October, which is a very ideal time.
"How many pre-orders do they have albums?"
As early as the comeback preview, major Korean music websites and physical stores of the album began to accept reservations for T-ara's new album.
The response from the fans has been overwhelming, and they have really contributed a lot to support their idols.
Shi Zhenqiu is waiting for this, waiting to see how hot the fire of T-ara's return is now.
Li Dakui sat next to him, looking very happy.
"That's a lot, and 57,000 copies have been pre-sold so far. ”
Shi Zhenqiu nodded, and was also very satisfied with this result.
The girl group can have the pre-sale sales of this album, which is definitely the top. After they return, the response to the song is good, so it will not be difficult to break 100,000 copies.
"Then don't wait any longer, tell me to go down, tomorrow at twelve o'clock at noon, the music source and the album will be rolled out all over the line. ”
Shi Zhenqiu is in charge of music production, and the time when the works are put on the shelves is always arranged at 12 o'clock at noon, rather than 12 o'clock at midnight when the day begins.
Because there are too few people at midnight, and they are all tired, the support for the sound source is definitely not enough.
Unlike 12 o'clock at noon, it is the most energetic time of the day. In addition, people at this time are basically taking a nap and have plenty of time.
He made arrangements, and now he began to hurry up.
Mystic89 has long been familiar with a series of publicity channels such as various audio source websites, various television stations, various major media channels, as well as outdoor electronic billboards and bus billboards.
Under this all-round publicity, even people who don't like T-ara, even those who don't care about pop music, already know that T-ara is about to return.
And in the video trailer, many people vaguely feel that T-ara's return song seems to be great.
This increased the anticipation and made a good start for the next day's audio explosion.
On October 7, 2010, T-ara's first full-length album was officially released.
Because there are no strong competitors, the song is an explosion from the start.
Melon had been prepared for the battle, but he still felt a little unprepared.
As soon as twelve o'clock passed, "Roly poly" directly landed one place, and continued to break the table, keeping high.
The download and preview data in the background has been tumbling all the time, as if those numbers have come alive.
This is the case with Melon, as is the case with Bugs, olleh, Soribada, daum, etc., all of which are suppressed by "Roly poly" and completely unable to raise their heads.
At this moment, there are many, many people who are paying attention to the situation of "Roly poly". But there is no doubt that the person who cares the most is obviously T-ara.
Although today is the day of the return of "Roly poly", it is also the day when "Popular Songs" will be broadcast.
So on the day of the comeback, T-ara will also start playing songs for the first time.
They had just finished their morning rehearsal and were eating in the waiting room, waiting for the afternoon show.
"The sound source is out. ”
The agent's words made the girls not in the mood to eat at all, so they all took out their mobile phones and began to check them.
"Wow, Ernie, look at this curve. ”
Ji-yeon's movements were the fastest, and when she saw the situation first, she immediately cheered.
In private, Hyomin doesn't pay much attention to the image and doesn't wear contact lenses, so he has to squint to barely see the image.
"Wow, really, are our songs so good?"
So-yeon had already seen it at this time, and her happy little mouth drew an arc.
"Hee-hee, I was really right by Oba, and the song this time is really good. ”
Eun Jing had already begun to flutter, nesting in the sofa and dangling her feet, smiling as crisp as a silver bell.
"Hee-hee, we've had times when we've been so good. ”
Curie and Sapphire are similar, and they know what it means to have such a good result.
"Waha, you say, how many can we take this time?"
Anyway, they are all their own people, and Juli can open up her illusions. The last time they returned, they got eleven places, which is already remarkable.
Now the momentum of this return is even more ferocious than the last time, and it seems that the results will be better.
Sapphire is very careful and not so ambitious.
"Maybe not a lot, doesn't that mean Girls' Generation is coming back, can we really win them?"
In a word, the waiting room was quiet. All six girls frowned, less confident.
Girlhood, if you don't face it directly, you won't feel the pressure of the mountain.
In the past, there were many groups that were equal to Girls' Generation, but now, three years have passed, and Girls' Generation is still Girls' Generation, and sitting in the position of the first girl group is not moving.
Although the girls are also beautiful all the way, they really have no confidence in whether they can win the girls' generation.
Especially at the beginning of this year, Girls' Generation achieved sales of more than 500,000 copies with such poor songs.
This data is really desperate.
They still don't know the quality of the return songs of Girls' Generation, how dare they talk about the victory?
Shi Zhenqiu walked in in such an atmosphere, and he couldn't help but be a little strange for a while.
"Hey, what's wrong with you?
Today is the first day of T-ara's return, and it is the first day of singing, and he is extremely attached to this return, so he can't rest assured and rushed to the TV station in person.
His current identity, no matter where he appears, is not a small wave.
As a result, I was pulled by the director of the SBS TV Drama Production Bureau, and I rushed over after talking for a long time.
When there are many girls, there are many things, and it is normal to quarrel or something. So he thought so, but got the girls with a roll of their eyes.
"Please, Oba, we're busy. I'm so tired every day, and I don't have the strength to quarrel. ”
Hearing that it wasn't a contradiction, Shi Zhenqiu was a lot relieved.
"Then what are you guys doing with this ghost? Today is the day of the return, and the music source is not very good, why are you not happy?"
Ji-yeon is straightforward and fast-talking.
"Ernie are worried that girlhood will return in a while, will we still be like this?"
It turned out to be this, which made Shi Zhenqiu laugh.
"You're asking for your own troubles. Isn't there still a dozen days left, why are you worrying about this now? Besides, why worry about the situation that you have won?"
His words are really domineering, but it also makes the girls very trance-like.
"Oba, you're too arbitrary, aren't you? That's Girls' Generation, if it's so easy to win, are they still the number one combination?"
Shi Zhenqiu waved his hand to stop Xiaomin's nagging.
"What about the first group? Not what I pushed out? Without my gee, they wouldn't be like that. Since I can push them to the first position, I can push you to overtake them. Besides, their return this time is just a mini album, and the momentum is average. And the title song is not very good, and it can't be compared to Roly poly at all. ”
So-yeon perked up and asked anxiously, "Oba, have you heard their work?"
She knew that Shi Zhenqiu had a good relationship with Girls' Generation, could it be that she got the inside story in advance?
Shi Zhenqiu shook his head.
"Of course I didn't, and I'm not an intelligence spy. But I know that their title song is said to have been written by Lee so-man's son. Cut, a guy who goes to business school, what kind of good music can he make? Li Xiuman, that old guy, was average when he was a singer himself, and their family didn't have many music cells. ”
Hearing him slander Li Xiuman here, the girls all covered their mouths and chuckled.
In this way, even behind their backs, they dare not say it.
Li Xiuman's status, they can't afford to provoke.
However, Shi Zhenqiu's words gave the girls a lot of strong self-confidence, and they were no longer so worried.
Today's "Popular Ballads", for girls, the changes are very obvious. Because for the first time, they were scheduled to play in the finale.
No matter how popular they were in the past, they were not so valued.
This change has shown that their status is improving. The outside world has begun to recognize them, and they dare not slack off.
The first time I returned to play songs, naturally there was no one.
But today, T-ara's cheers were the strongest, and as far as the eye could see, the ocean-like sunflower ocean was very brilliant and splendid, which made the girls excited and excited.
And that's just the beginning.
In just three days, Roly poly swept the country by storm in an unstoppable frenzy.
The retro song, which has been slightly forgotten by people, has exploded again, and the ferocity is better than everything.
It's been three days, and this song is still maintaining a broken posture, and there is no downward trend at all.
Even more gratifying are the album sales.
According to Shi Zhenqiu's estimate, it would be good to be able to buy 100,000 tickets. Unexpectedly, within three days, the shipment reached 180,000 pieces.
And this number is growing rapidly, and it seems that more than 200,000 is not a difficult task.
In addition, T-ara has also begun to show its influence internationally.
YouTube, Chinese music websites, Japanese music websites, and music charts in Southeast Asian countries, "Roly poly" has undoubtedly occupied the first place and has been loved by countless people.
Nowadays, when it comes to the most popular singer in Korea, T-ara is the most well-deserved choice.
