When Cheng Xiaoyu returned to the dormitory, the three of them were shouting and playing games, and Cheng Xiaoyu put the drinks bought at the store downstairs and a large bag on the table at zero hour, and said, "Eat as much as you want!"

Wu Fan, who was sitting closest to him, raised his eyes and looked at Cheng Xiaoyu, but the operation in his hand did not stop, and said, "Does Cheng Xiaoyu know how to play the real three?"

Cheng Xiaoyu glanced at it, it seemed to be a battle game similar to "League of Legends" in his memory, shook his head and said, "I don't play games much." ”

"Zhensan can't play, but you have to learn!" Chang Yue said as he operated, and then shouted, "." "I slapped the mouse on the table, apparently hanging again.

Luo Kai smiled heartily opposite Chang Yue, and called, "It's okay, brother has helped you take revenge, Guan Yu and the three of them will be killed." ”

Cheng Xiaoyu was very familiar with such a scene, smiled, took out Duanmu Linsha's laptop and put it on the table, and said, "Okay, I'll study when I'm free." "I don't know if I'm free in the year of the monkey.

Cheng Xiaoyu first connected the computer to the Internet, then took the mobile hard drive from the travel bag, and copied the thirteen music songs into Duanmu Linsha's computer.

This is already Cheng Xiaoyu's conversion of the WAV format into a CD format of the audio source,Although you really want to listen to music, you still have to listen to the lossless WAV format,But the text is too big,A song costs seven or eight hundred MB,Like heavy metal rock, a lossless WAV format music is basically one GB,The current laptop is generally about 80G,If you save the lossless mode, you can't store much music at all。

In this era, due to the pursuit of music quality and the controversy over music formats, the MP3 format has not been promoted due to the loss of sound quality, so it is generally still the CD format.

Cheng Xiaoyu sent a CD-formatted music text to Wang Ou through guòGG, which was immediately accepted, apparently he was also surfing the Internet.

Cheng Xiaoyu crackled and typed, he said, "Don't open the download in the post bar for the time being, upload it to the GG music network for a five-cent audition." ”

Wang Ou's avatar is all the colorful artistic words of the crown of sin, and Cheng Xiaoyu said, "Oh, it's really such good music." It's a big loss to be free. ”

"Five cents is not the key, I want to find a factory, carve out the CD, and we will sell it in the post bar ourselves. I want to try. I don't have access to a record company, and I make my own independent production and distribution. ”

"I'll rub it, there's no need, isn't your family a record company, why are you making such trouble?" Wang Ou didn't understand Cheng Xiaoyu's behavior.

"If you sign a contract with my company. It is estimated that our band will not get much income, and it is miserable for newcomers to release CDs, especially bands. Even I can't break the rules. Of course, it's hard to say, after all, there are channels on the river, and you can still mix some soup to drink in case it is sold. The problem is that we are just a little famous on the Internet, this thing is relatively empty, and it is not very difficult to officially sign a contract. However, the contract conditions must be harsh, and if you have to cooperate with the publicity, the schoolwork will also be delayed. Even if you can sign the best 28 shares, it is really better to engrave 100,000 copies and make more money by engaging in self-media marketing. ”

"I really don't understand this, you make a decision! Don't count me in the penny, I haven't done anything, you just count Shamo and Haoran." Wang Ou also made a sweaty expression after the fight.

Cheng Xiaoyu replied quickly, "You are mistaken, it stands to reason that you manage the post bar, GG group and whispering public account, and your contribution is not smaller than ours, so it is impossible not to share it with you." ”

"Don't mention the money, Chubby. I'm just a hobby. It's boring to talk about money in everything. ”

"Haha, you don't care about Da Zhuang, I'll arrange it. I won't tell you, I'll make a phone call first to consult and see how to get it. "Cheng Xiaoyu is not a wordy personality. Anyway, when the money arrives in the account, he can't refuse, that is.

"Well, then I'll upload the music to GG Music first. Wang Ou didn't bother, after all, making money is still a thing.

Cheng Xiaoyu opened the website again and checked the official website of the Huaxia Music Association, today there is already yesterday's CD sales jù statistics, although the end of the summer vacation is not a popular time to release albums, but the idol plan sold more than 110,000 copies nationwide on the first day. I haven't been able to make the list last week, of course, this is the last day of the week, and it is reasonable that I can't make the list.

Generally speaking, the sales of an album in the first two weeks determine the number of times the album is trending. Sales within a month determine the sales base of the entire album, and sales after that basically do not increase much. Some trending singers can sell two or three million copies of the album in the first three days, and although the number will be lower and lower after that, basically the approximate sales of an album can be judged in the first few days.

And after a month, the site will start selling digital albums, which can be purchased as a whole or as a single song. This price is much cheaper than buying a physical CD, but there are a lot fewer commemorative goods. Moreover, digital music sources will not be counted in CD sales by the Huaxia Music Association.

"Boundless Digital Music Source Award" is an award ceremony jointly organized by major music websites, which is based on the digital music source list, although the gold content is not as good as the "China Golden Dragon Award" held by China Central Television, but it is also an important award second only to the "Golden Dragon Award".

At this time, the sales of 110,000 copies on the first day of the "Idol Project" were already on the street compared to the expected value. But Cheng Xiaoyu is still very calm, after all, there are still more than one million pre-sales in the bottom. Although others doubted it, he knew that it was a real number. If you look at the sales of 1.1 million on the first day, it is really not low. As the ranking progresses, sales will definitely gradually increase within a week.

After getting the album receipt of each customer participating in the pre-sale, it can be handed over to the Huaxia Music Association, and the number of pre-orders will be counted.

Of course there is, after all, a "nobody" and a "divine" are just these two songs, and with the addition of the idol project, it should be an explosive sales scene.

It can only be said that the negative news combined with the hasty release on the shelves still has too much impact on the sales of this album. Cheng Xiaoyu couldn't help much at this time, and the girls also started a two-week journey to the national rankings, hoping that sales would gradually open up next.

Cheng Xiaoyu didn't know if the members were under tremendous pressure, nor did he know what their mentality was. So he logged on to his whispering account, Cheng Xiaoyu had asked Wang Dongliang to remove his certification as the president of V whispering, and now it has been replaced by an ordinary account, but the number of people who follow him is not small, there are more than 2,000 people, Cheng Xiaoyu estimates that many people find him according to the follower list of the idol plan. Because he has also posted a chicken soup article, he has never posted anything else.

Cheng Xiaoyu didn't read the hundreds of netizen messages under his whisper, he posted a "Don't be afraid, don't be confused." Fog and malice, hurt and slander, will all dissipate. The faintest starlight is like fireflies, gathering little by little to illuminate the direction of an entire world. And @ members of the Six Idol Project.

Then Cheng Xiaoyu turned off the whisper and walked out of the bedroom to call Cao Danian. He wanted to ask about something that was very important to him about the CD release.

Cao Danian was watching TV at home at this time, and when he received a call from Cheng Xiaoyu, he immediately lowered his voice and said, "Hey, Xiaoyu, is there anything wrong with calling Uncle Cao so late?"

Cheng Xiaoyu didn't be too polite with Cao Danian, and said directly, "Uncle Cao, I'm sorry to disturb you so late, you also know that I got a band, and now there are quite a lot of fans." I've already recorded the sound source, although the sound collection is not as good as Shanghe's professional recording studio, but it's not bad, and the post-production is also very good, I just want to engrave more than 100,000 or 200,000 CDs and sell them on the Internet, do you think this will work?"

"Publishing a CD requires a version number. With the version number, the approval can be taken to the pressure plate factory for production. Of course, this is easy to solve, the company has a version number that can be rented, but you have to think clearly about pressing CDs, a CD plus a box and cover printing costs about ten yuan. If you want to make zuò more delicate, it will be more expensive. Disc pressing is actually not expensive, and the more pressed, the cheaper. But if you can't sell it if you press too much, it's a tragedy. You are a band, and it will be the end of suppressing tens of thousands of copies. Now the best band in China, the CD has just sold more than a million copies. How many sheets to press. Be sure to think carefully. In addition, the distribution also involves the settlement of funds, invoices, etc., especially some e-commerce and large physical record stores, which is a more troublesome matter. Cao Danian still seriously and responsibly analyzed the difficulties of releasing independent records with Cheng Xiaoyu.

Cheng Xiaoyu was confused in his mind, this is also what he took for granted, thinking that it was not easy to sing an independent album, carve more than 100,000 copies, sell them in the post bar, or pre-sell them directly, and then take the money to engrave the record. This makes a lot more money than signing a contract with a record company. He paused and smiled bitterly and said, "So it's so troublesome! I originally thought that after I carved it, I could sell it on the Internet casually." I'm still too young!"

"I think that if you don't sign this record to Shanghe, you can sell it as a whole and get the signing fee, and don't divide it, as for whether the CD makes money or not, the company will bear it. ”

As soon as Cheng Xiaoyu heard Cao Danian say this, he knew that he had misunderstood, so he said, "This record can be sold for hundreds of thousands, I don't think there is any problem." If we sign a contract to sell (sell copyrights), it will be a big loss for our band!"

"If you are really sure that you can sell hundreds of thousands of copies, then you can indeed get it yourself, an album in Huaxia averages 35 to 60 yuan a piece, you have to be able to press 300,000 copies, the cost is about 3 million, and you can make about 10 million by selling them all, of course, this money depends on what channel you go to sell, the channel has to take a part, and the tax has to take a part. But it's easy to make a few millions. If you're sure, I can help you with most of the problems, you can try. But if you don't do this, the risk is still quite big. Cao Danian said to Cheng Xiaoyu after careful consideration.

"Then Uncle Cao, I'll think about it, and I'm thinking about contacting you. Cheng Xiaoyu couldn't make a decision for a while, and planned to make a decision on whether to pre-sell it in the post bar first, and see how much GG auditions were making.

"Okay, Xiaoyu, just call me if there's anything. ”

After Cheng Xiaoyu finished the call, he went back to the dormitory, he wanted to release the record by himself, mainly because he was a little short of money now, Shanghe was a listed company after all, and the money he earned was not all into his own pocket, which was also the reason why he was entangled.

Cheng Xiaoyu went to the bathroom to wash his face and brush his teeth, thinking that he would have to get up early tomorrow, and the opening ceremony was in the morning, so Cheng Xiaoyu went to bed, and there was no such thing as military training in this time and space.

He closed his eyes and lay on the bed, music was playing in the headphones, his roommates were still playing on the computer, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse outside the window, but Cheng Xiaoyu felt that the whole world was only himself.

The beautiful red straw hat was hung on the simple hook on the wall, he thought about the smile of the girl he didn't know and had some difficulty falling asleep, counting the drums in the music, Cheng Xiaoyu's consciousness gradually began to blur, and that beautiful face began to transform in his mind, sometimes it would become Xia Shamo, sometimes it would become Su Yuxi, and he fell asleep in such an illusion.
