Chapter 142: Amazing the World
On February 18th, Hong Ning's "Fantesi" topped the national February sales list and sales double list on the first day of release, and broke the highest sales record in the country on the first day of China's all-time digital album created by the diva Mei Ruxin, which amazed the entire Chinese music scene!
And apparently the popularity of this album in China did not stop there......
On the second day of its release, the album's sales soared again under the impetus of tens of millions of netizens, and by the evening of the 19th, the domestic sales of this album had reached an astonishing 8.2 million! Some people have predicted that the final national sales of this album may even reach 15 million! You must know that the national sales of Mei Tianhou's "Crescent Moon" are only 11 million!
This is the hottest digital record of all time in China! This is an album that is making history!
Now almost everyone in the country has accepted the established fact that Hong Ning will become the future super king of the Chinese music scene, even those trolls who used to spray Hong Ning wildly on the Internet are now basically defeated by such exaggerated results, even if there are still some particularly persistent trolls, their voices are quickly drowned out in thousands of applause.

For a while, all over the country, whether on the Internet or in real life, there were people everywhere talking about this famous rookie singer and his superphenomenal god, and the way many young people met and greeted each other became "Did you listen to Fantesi?".
Hong Ning is indeed in the limelight in China now, and now his popularity in China is even close to that of a superstar, and his Weibo fans have skyrocketed, with nearly 10 million fans overnight!
However, although he now has the level of a king in terms of popularity in China, and can even be said to far exceed many first-line stars, he is still only the first in the second tier in China.
There is no way to do this, it is the pot of evaluation standards, maybe if he can get the award at this Golden Melody Awards, he will be able to enter the first line.
However, in fact, the star rating is just a reference, and the real fire is best known to the people.
Hong Ning now seems to have become a popular and transcendent existence in the domestic entertainment industry!
But......
Although his album exploded as soon as it was released in China, it is not like this abroad, and it can even be said that there is a world of difference at home and abroad!
Because his company first focuses on domestic publicity, although it has been put on sale abroad, the major foreign music websites are released at the same time as the domestic one, and it can be purchased.
But because he himself is not well-known abroad, except for a few Chinese compatriots abroad who know about this album because of the popularity in China and then buy it, few other people will buy this album of "Ray-Hong" Chinese boys that they have never heard of.
Therefore, although "Fantesi" swept thousands of troops in China and topped all the lists, its performance on foreign lists was very poor.
But......
When the sales results came out in the evening, Hong Ning's breaking of Mei Tianhou's first-day record also spread throughout the world music scene in an instant!
And because the album topped the top in China in one day, and also broke the record of Mei Tianhou, this in itself became a great kind of publicity!
After all, China is also one of the world's major powers, although China's entertainment industry is currently not comparable to Europe, the United States, Japan and South Korea, but ...... A newcomer who has just debuted! Breaking the record of Mei Ruxin, a world-class diva who has been popular in the world for a long time! In any case, such an explosive incident naturally spread to foreign countries very quickly, and although countries are relatively far apart, in this era of advanced information, the earth can be a "village," and the spread of news is quite fast, so fast that it is terrifying! As long as the media are willing, you may be able to know that someone on the other side of the earth farted in the last second. Of course, this is an exaggeration, but that's the truth.
Therefore, the day after the release of the album "Fantesi", many large foreign media newspapers have reported on this "new king of Chinese music".
This side of Asia.
In South Korea's entertainment news newspapers, although the headlines are almost all about the album sales of their Tiantuan REX, Hong Ning is also reported......
KBS News: "China's Mei Tianhou's domestic first-day record sales record was broken by a super newcomer!"
Chosun Ilbo: "Six Million Sales on the First Day!
Japanese news has always been full of middle school atmosphere, and this time is no exception:
Tokyo Shimbun: "The Great Crisis in the Music World! The Unstoppable Chinese Tiger is Coming!"
Asahi Shimbun: "Super God-level Musical Talent!
Other countries in Asia, such as Singapore and Thailand, have also reported on the incident.
Over there in Europe and the United States.
On the afternoon of the 19th, the entertainment page of the latest issue of the Los Angeles Daily News was headlined:
"Ray-Hong - A Chinese Ghost Musician Who Can Play Nunchucks!"
On the right side of the page is a photograph that takes up about one-third of the page: Hong Ning is wearing a black vest and black trousers, showing off his strong muscles, his right hand is held flat in front of him with the back of his hand facing up, his hand is tightly held at the center of the nunchuck, he is tied with a standard horse step, the corners of his mouth are raised, and he shows a confident smile.
On the left side of the photo is an introduction to the new singer who suddenly became popular in China, and tells people that his latest album broke the record in Chinese record history, and then there is a large section of what the famous American contemporary pop music critic Roger Thomas also said about Hong Ning and his album "Fantasy":
"To be honest, I only met this Chinese singer-songwriter when I first learned the news from there, and after looking at his debut resume, I was really interested in him, and I wondered, what kind of person can create so many miracles in such a short period of time? Is there really such a genius in this world? Is his music really so good?
With these questions in mind, I went to listen to his "Fantasy......
Oh my God!
His arrangements are so gorgeous, so whimsical, and so rich in elements! And the lyrics and arrangements of these songs were all done by him alone! God, this is absolutely a creative work! Amazing! Talented!
By this time, I finally knew why he would create miracles in China, because he had this strength!
Watching him beat people with nunchucks in the music video is like watching a kung fu movie by Bruce Chan! Can you believe it? He is not only a good singer-songwriter, but also a kung fu master!
Finally, I have a hunch that Hong Ning's music will dominate the future, and may even change Asian music!"
……
It is absolutely very rare for a Chinese record to be able to get such an evaluation abroad!
And obviously, with these foreign media reports, the sales of Hong Ning's album abroad should also get better and better......
