Chapter 104: Release, Popular!

The release of "Graduation" is like pouring a bucket of oil on dry firewood.

Yutaka Ozaki's song was originally a classic with an excellent level, and now there is another song "Full of Memories" to compare with each other in the ring, and the attention and discussion immediately ushered in a surge.

Finally getting a clear recorded version made young people and rock circles ecstatic, and because of the low price and the eagerness to prove their ideas, these people flocked to the video store to buy X's song, this is the biggest difference between the song "Graduation" and "Full of Memories", the latter may have many supporters, but most people just listen to it, and will not express their likes too fiercely, but the song "Graduation" is different, it has an amazing "conversion rate" for purchases.

With the shriveled distribution ability of Sihai Records, two days after the release of the song, news of an urgent inventory came from all over the country, and Wang Deli was excited to work overtime to produce it while thanking Fan Cheng in his heart.

Because of the popularity of the song, the first batch of production of "Graduation" is 100,000 copies, although this number is not much left after being evenly distributed to tens of thousands of genuine audio-visual stores across the country, but this is already a good starting number for the first batch of newcomers, for example, Wen Zhen was also at the level of 100,000 copies when he first released the first album, and the total sales of the album in the end were about 100,000 copies, that is, it was not until more than a year after its release that she finally sold out the first batch of 100,000 sales.

And what about X? In just two days, the first batch of 100,000 tickets is already in a hurry!

Looking at it this way, the gap in sales is very big, of course, in terms of making money X, these 100,000 copies must not be as good as the above really, Wen Zhen is ten songs, and the album priced at 48 is 48.

The sales of 100,000 copies in two days are even phenomenal, and in the case of keeping up with the distribution, the sales of "Graduation" finally reached 240,000 copies this week, and it got the sixth position on the sales list!

Newcomers! Newcomers who don't show up! Small ones can't be smaller record stores! Sixth! This achievement is simply unprecedented!

Such a high first-week result made even a famous folk singer who was squeezed to seventh this week couldn't help but say two sour sentences: "Can a single be compared to an album? If so, at least divide the sales by five? After all, there are only two songs in the single." ”

Well, in the Huaxia charts where there is no singles chart, it really sounds a little reasonable.

In fact, there have been singers in Huaxia who have tried to release singles before, but before "Graduation", none of those singles were in the top ten of the charts, so they didn't attract jealousy like this single.

It's really jealous, because this "Graduation" is purely making money like a white wolf with empty gloves.

Why do you say that, other companies, especially the bigger ones, may spend a lot of money on releasing a record, starting from the very roots, first of all, you have to have a company, and the operation of the company has to spend money to hire people, right? And then where did the artist come from? You have to hire a talent scout to find it, right? The artist has been found, or is it a complete layman, you have to find a teacher to train, right? Music teacher, dance teacher, body teacher, corresponding teacher...... It's hard to get up until the artist can release an album, do you do it or not? Running all over the country, going on shows, and plastering posters all over the streets and alleys of the country...... This is all driven by white flowers.

When X first became famous, some well-known company scouts across the country gathered in Yangji, and as a result, Sihai Records signed this sought-after newcomer while sitting at home, and then, the outstanding quality made X debut directly without vocal training, and stealth records did not need training such as dance body media correspondence, etc., as for the publicity, it was almost nothing, large and small media discussions, the resistance of young people was almost equivalent to natural propaganda and advertising, and the release of Sihai Records was almost equivalent to empty gloves and white wolves!

As for the money for making CDs and distributing goods? Compared with those preliminary work publicity, this amount of money is equivalent to nothing!

Although the unit price is very low, the sales of more than 200,000 yuan a week still make Wang Deli smile and can't keep his mouth shut, eight yuan a CD, after deducting 15% of Fan Cheng's and about 55% of the seller, he can still get at least 30% of the share, and then deduct the investment, he can still get at least 20%, and each CD can earn about six pieces! 20% of the income is actually more than when many companies release albums! No way, the cost here is too low for Sihai Records.

Don't look at the fact that there are almost no record companies to give singers a share now, many companies are still losing money and making money on the singer's first album, and then think about it, many companies often launch a money-making singer at the same time, there are usually N same newcomers who launch but don't make money at all, only buy a few hundred CDs a week, and the sales list can't enter the top 1,000 of the week......

Therefore, the company signs newcomers, and it is understandable that the salary is very low for eight years, and the salary is very low, before the album is released, these pink little newcomers are valuable dice to the company, and the release of the album is the moment when these dice are thrown down, whether it is success or failure, making money or not losing money, there is hope for the future, or the mother who loses does not know, strength only accounts for part of the reason, and luck is also very critical.

The release of "Graduation" is like a whirlwind, blowing the rebellious psychology of young people across the country, as if overnight, just like when in Japan, Yutaka Ozaki was named the tenth generation of godfathers, although no one on the mainland has called out, but young people's worship of X has begun to take shape.

At first, the worship of X was only those young people who liked music and rebelled, but gradually, the situation became complicated, just as the social section of the newspaper began to pay attention to X, and many rebellious teenagers who did not pay attention to music also began to know X, and knew this song full of rebellious spirit.

Compared with people who like music, the number of these people is very large, for a while, young people all over the country, as long as you have a Walkman or CD player, most of them listen to this song "Graduation", and even arcade halls, computer rooms, Internet cafes, and skating rinks all over the country...... Almost all the places where young people gather, those hoarse broken speakers are playing almost the same song "Graduation"!

In China, it doesn't matter how many albums are sold, how good the professional critics in the circle are, etc., the street voice is the real most popular representative, when 90% of the streets and alleys of the cities in China are ringing with your music, you are really popular.

Fan Cheng's previous life, "The Heart Is Too Soft", "Mice Love Rice", "Northeast People Are Living Lei Feng" and so on have enjoyed such treatment.

Now "Graduation" has also enjoyed such treatment in a small number of very popular cities.

This is the case, for example, in Yangji.

As the city where X first appeared, X's popularity is obviously the first in the country, the teachers and parents in Yangji City are about to die of anger, those little gangsters, children who don't study well, almost all of them are holding the Walkman and listening to "Graduation", which is nothing, after all, these children have little hope, the most important thing is that those children who usually go to school well and study seriously have a lot of children who like this song, and what adults are most afraid of is that these good children are also broken!

However, what can be done to make children dislike this song? Some schools and parents first adopted the strategy of strict prevention, as long as they heard this song, they immediately confiscated the children's Walkman CD player, and even demerited punishment, but the so-called rebellious spirit, the more suppressed it is, the stronger the children's resistance, and the suppression of adults has contributed to the popularity of the song "Graduation" to a certain extent.

The angry adults couldn't find X, who released the album incognito, so they had to vent their anger on Sihai Records, and the company received countless complaints and letters for days, as if they were the culprits who brought these children to blame.

Wang Deli is also very entangled in this, although he made hundreds of thousands of dollars in a week, he also has children, ask himself, he also doesn't want his children to listen to the song "Graduation".

The tangled Wang Deli found Fan Cheng and said his hesitation.

Fan Cheng said: "It's just a song, you think too strongly about the role of the song, how can a song have such a big effect, even if there is no song, those rebellious children are still rebellious, this song is at most to make people pay attention to the children's rebellion." ”

The power of the song is really exaggerated, and so is Yutaka Ozaki in Fan Cheng's world, the title of the so-called godfather of the tenth generation, which is essentially the hype of Yutaka Ozaki's company, from Yutaka Ozaki to his real fan supporters, are actually very resistant to this title.

And Japanese society, when the song became popular, of course, there were many actions such as breaking the school window at night, but what about after the popularity passed? Life still has to go on, no matter how rebellious the teenager is, he will eventually face growth, when they really understand the meaning of the song "Graduation", rebellion and confusion are increasing day by day, and who will really continue to be in secondary school?

The resistance of young people is great, and parents and teachers finally feel that they can't go on like this, the so-called blockage is better than sparse, and the song "Full of Memories" also describes graduation, and at the same time is fresh and uplifting, it naturally enters the eyes of adults.

This song is good!

Although there is a faint tendency to early love, no one cares about these at this time, the lesser of two evils, "Full of Memories" has received a huge boost almost instantly!

The plan has been carried out to this extent, there is no need for Fan Cheng and Wang Deli to promote, and Universal Company also noticed the "seriousness" of the problem and the business opportunities contained in it, and less than three days after "Full of Memories" was noticed by the domestic mainstream media, the new single "Full of Memories", which was recorded at the fastest speed, was put on sale!
