After a full day of bombardment, Severn's first fan group, TEG, became completely "famous" among British netizens, and as long as you go online, you can see information about TEG.

They kept spreading the news of Severn's Feb. 7 album release on the Internet, bombarding British stars and newspapers in turn.

.........

"Alice, are you going to the amusement park today?" At an elementary school in London, a chubby blonde boy asks Alice.

Alice looked at the little fat man indifferently, and indifferently refused: "No, I'm going to buy Severn's album." ”

"Severn? Which singer is that? The little fat man said with a puzzled expression.

"You don't even know Severn?" Alice looked at the little fat man with a hillbilly expression, her eyes full of disdain.

"Is he famous?" The little fat man touched the back of his head and asked innocently.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to tell you, don't follow me anymore." Alice directly shook off the little fat man and walked towards the video store outside the school gate.

........

"Boss, bring me a Severn album." Alice pulled out £25 and pointed to Severn's album on the shelf.

The cover of Severn's album is black and white, and the front of the album is Severn's face, with a cold expression, like an ascetic male god, as if looking down on the world, with both hands in the shape of a void grasp, and in the middle of the hands, is the name of the album, Fade.

"Oh, good." The owner of the video store casually pulled out the album and gave it to Alice.

"Boss, are there many people who buy this album today?" Alice asked with a childlike look on her face.

"It's okay, not a lot, what's wrong?" The owner of the video store looked at Alice and said.

"Nothing." Alice shook her head while holding the album, a little disappointed in her heart, but more puzzled.

In her opinion, after a whole day of hard work at TEG yesterday, Severn's album should be like Michael Jackson's album, how can no one buy it.

But in fact, Severn's song is very popular on the Internet, but most of the people who listen to the song "Baby" are students, and their spending power is limited, and those who can afford to buy it have already been booked at the pre-sale of the album.

What's more, Ringer Starr's remarks in the past few days have had a great impact on Severn's album, and most parents are very prejudiced against Severn, so Severn's results on the first day of the album are not as good as Alice imagined.

"No matter, let's go back and listen to it first." Alice threw away the distractions in her heart, grabbed the CD in her hand and hurried home.

At the same time, at EMI's corporate headquarters, Tom Reeves asked the technicians:

"How many copies of Severn's album have been sold?"

"Well, excluding the 100,000 copies of the pre-sale album, a total of 23,000 copies were sold today." The technician glanced at the data channel on the computer.

"How much?!" Tom Reeves suspected he had misheard, and asked the technician again.

"Twenty-three thousand." Seeing Tom Reeves' look of disbelief, the technician replied weakly.

"How can it be so little?" Tom Reeves frowned and said, it's almost a day, how can he sell 23,000 copies, which is completely inconsistent with the laws of the market, in his mind, it is reasonable to sell at least another 100,000 copies.

The first day of sales of the album affects the final result of the album, and if the first day of sales is not good, then the album is basically scrapped, of course, referring to the general situation.

"We checked, firstly, because the remarks of Ringer Starr and others had a certain impact on album sales, and secondly, because TEG's online behavior yesterday caused public outrage, and Severn's album was boycotted by most netizens." The technician replied.

"Is that Severn's fan group?" Tom Reeves Dow.

"Not bad."

"Okay, you get on with your work, I'll give you a call and ask." Tom Reeves waved his hand.

It stands to reason that Severn bets against EMI, and he should wish that Severn's album sales are low, but the songs in Severn's album are too high-quality, and as a musician, he doesn't want these music to be dusty, so he cares so much.

At the Althorp estate, Severn had just finished his call with Abt when he received a call from Tom Reeves.

"Hey, Tom, what's wrong?" Severn asked with a relaxed expression.

"Something happened." Tom Reeves said in a deep voice.

"Album sales aren't good?" In an instant, Severn knew what Tom Reeves was trying to say, and raised an eyebrow and asked.

"Well, the album only sold 23,000 copies today." Tom Reeves replied.

"How can it be so little?"

"You don't know?"

"Know what?"

“TEG”

"What's that?"

"Your fanbase."

With that, Tom Reeves told Severn the specific situation, and Severn was rarely silent after listening to it, and he didn't know what words to use to describe his mood at this time.

"Young Master Severn, you don't have to worry too much, after all, they all have good intentions." After a while, Tom Reeves comforted Severn when he didn't reply.

"Forget it, is there any remedy now?" Severn asked.

"I'm afraid it's difficult, it is estimated that tomorrow the major newspapers in the UK will report on this situation, you have to be prepared." Tom Reeves gave Severn a vaccination first, "As for whether the album's sales can increase after that, it depends on the reputation of your album." ”

"Alas......."

Severn couldn't help sighing, it's really better to be a person, the original plan was good, relying on the gambling agreement and the quality of the song "Baby" to attract people's attention to Severn's album.

Unexpectedly, because of the appearance of Ringer Starr and TEG, this rhythm was completely disrupted, which made the British people have a disgust with Severn, and they didn't buy Severn's account at all.

"Sure enough, you're still too anxious?"

If Severn had taken it step by step, the album would have been a huge success, but now .........

He can already think of how the newspapers will report him tomorrow, and he will definitely become a clown in the eyes of others!

"Severn, don't worry, the songs on your album have the potential to be a big hit, and they will definitely counterattack with word-of-mouth in the end." Tom Reeves comforted Severn.

"Hmm."

"Then hang up first, bye-bye."

Severn hung up the phone and couldn't help but feel a little heavy, but deep down he still had faith in his album, as long as he survived the past few days.

"Severn, who called you?" Catherine walked up and asked.

"Tom Reeves, Music Director at EMI." Severn regained his mood and said to Catherine easily.

"Oh? Is it news from your album? Catherine asked.

"Hmm."

"How's it going?"

"The results were very poor, and only 23,000 copies were sold."

"How so? The pre-sale results were so good, how did the first day of sales sell 23,000 copies? Catherine frowned, "I'll go buy one and listen to it." ”

With that, Catherine ran out in a hurry, not giving Severn a chance to say anything. Seeing this, Severn couldn't help but smile bitterly, but he was somewhat moved in his heart.

"Grandstanding! The sales volume on the first day was 23,000, and the title of genius is not worthy of the name! —The Sun

"A big gamble? It's just a comedy of clowns jumping off the beam! —Daily Mail

"A sign of the fall of the Spencer family – Severn Spencer!" - The Times

"Shame among the nobility!" – The Guardian

“........”

The next day, various British newspapers reported the news, and as expected, all of them were satirical about Severn, and some even directly satirized the Spencer family.

After the results of the first day of Severn's album came out, without exception, all of them were singing about Severn, especially Italy, which launched a fierce attack on Severn!

Now the whole world is full of malice towards Severn, and if it weren't for Severn's good psychological quality, those news reports would have made Severn doubt his life, so as to let himself go (suicide).

"Young people always want to climb to the sky! Album sales over 100 million? There are only ten people in the world who can do it, and a boy who doesn't know the height of the sky wants to achieve such an achievement? Maybe I haven't woken up yet!

But it's better to recognize the reality sooner rather than later! Young people, you still have to be down-to-earth. Ringer Starr commented in the newspaper.
