On the first day of the release of the new album, Hou Muyun has been staying at Sky Culture Company, one is to do live broadcasts here, and the other is to know all kinds of information data and materials here faster, no matter how big Hou Muyun's heart is, it is impossible not to care about the sales this time. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

The current office of Sky Culture Company is different from the previous one, the company has completed the integration, rented a high-end office building in Lujiazui as an office, the place is very spacious, and all aspects of the facilities are naturally very high-end.

Advertising on live broadcast is now Hou Muyun's biggest way of publicity and promotion, and it is also the most direct and influential way.

"Where's your boss?"

Not long after the live broadcast, Hou Muyun heard the voice of Shi 15 outside, and then saw him, along with Xiao Yu.

Shi Fifteen knew that Hou Muyun had just finished the live broadcast as soon as he saw it, and he was not polite, so he directly picked up the data on the table and looked at it, these data were all relevant sales data sent by the company's employees every once in a while, and his eyes widened after looking at it: "Damn, it's only been a long time!"

Hou Muyun's face was "tranquil": "Calm and calm." Sales are secondary, and I care more about word-of-mouth and ratings. ”

Shi Fifteen habitually rolled his eyes to a new height, and even Xiao Yu looked disdainful: "Even if you say it to deal with the official statement of the reporter, no one believes it." ”

"As for it!"

Hou Muyun smiled, and then asked the two: "Why are you two here, don't tell me that you are just curious to see the sales?"

Xiao Yu said with a smile: "Mainly to see the sales situation, by the way, I will tell you one more thing." ”

Hou Muyun waved his hand: "It's definitely not a good thing to come on such a trip, so don't talk about it." ”

When Shi Fifteen heard this, he laughed: "Old Xiao, let me say it, this person can't be polite to him at all, we have to be polite, and everything has nothing to do with us!"

Then he said to Hou Muyun: "You really don't care if it's a good thing or a bad thing, it's all your business anyway." Lao Xiao and I are going to jointly hold a few concerts in the second half of the year, among which there must be one in Shanghai, not to mention other places far away, this one in Shanghai, anyway, you have to be a guest. ”

"As long as the money is in place, the stage is dry. ”

Hou Muyun responded very "seriously", and then said: "But you have to tell me the time arrangement as soon as possible, in the next month or two, I estimate that the formation of the arrangement is enough, especially after the movie is released, running a roadshow must be indispensable." ”

Shi 15 said: "Don't worry, the concert arrangement must be a big event that we dare not disturb you after your movie is released." ”

Hou Muyun waved his hand sharply and said politely: "Look at what you said, what are you doing so politely? What is a big deal, it is serious, it is enough to book a few movie theaters for buddies to cheer up at that time." Oh yes, there's one more thing I don't know if Chubby has already talked to your agent, don't forget to come to the premiere of "Sword Honor". ”

"If you don't say this, we'll all come!"

“…….”

The two did not leave immediately after finalizing the concert, but really stayed to be curious about the real-time sales of "HOU-HOU" in various regions and periods around the world, especially the digital album sales on the Internet side, which is the most straightforward and clear.

As of 7 o'clock in the evening of the same day, the sales of digital albums on the Internet side, including the total statistics of major music websites, their APPs and iTunes, etc., have reached 8 million online digital album sales worldwide!

At this moment, the release of the new album is only about 12 hours away.

At this moment, there are still five hours until midnight.

Everyone knows that it doesn't take 24 hours a day, just before the arrival of 0:00, this "HOU-HOU" will also create a miracle of sales exceeding 10 million.

And that's just the digital album on the web!

As for the specific sales of physical albums - including physical store sales and online store sales - it is naturally impossible to count them now, but judging from the real-time data of all aspects, it is definitely a terrifying number.

It can be said that at this moment, it can be completely judged that Hou Muyun's "HOU-HOU" has 100% created the miracle of the most single-day sales in history, as for how much it will be, then only tomorrow can know!

At this moment, the people on the side of Sky Culture Company breathed a sigh of relief, and the company that issued it was also relieved, and then it was naturally a carnival!

Shi Fifteen and Xiao Yu left after dinner together, and when it was time for dinner, Chu Qing naturally came. After eating, Chu Qing talked about the movie premiere.

The movie premiere is basically the last promotion and publicity before the release of the film, which is very important.

This time the movie is scheduled for August 10th, and the premiere is naturally before August 10th, which can be the first day or several days in advance, but there is no fixed number.

In addition, "Sword Honor" will not only be released in China, but also in North America, and it is currently scheduled to be released in many European countries including England, Germany, and France on August 20. There must be a premiere in China, so do North America need it, do European countries need it, this has become a problem that has not been solved.

Of course, for Chu Qing, even though it has been scheduled to be released in Europe and the United States, she knows that the main market is still in China, and although she values foreign markets, she does not have too high expectations. The ideal is to make money in the domestic market and brush "word of mouth" in the foreign market. After all, this is the first movie, no matter how confident Hou Muyun is, even she is very confident, but as the producer and distributor of the whole movie, she must have a more professional and stable mentality.

"I thought about it and felt that the premieres in Europe and the United States were still forgotten, and the main focus was on doing a good job of the domestic premieres. ”

In the end, Chu Qing gave up the idea of holding a premiere in Europe and the United States, saying that the "mass base" was still not enough, and then discussed with Hou Muyun some issues that needed to be solved or negotiated.

"I've already drawn up the list of stars invited to the premiere, have you seen it? There should be nothing missing, right?"

"The host of the premiere is Mr. He, right? Just one host or two?"

"The full-scale live broadcast cooperation platform for the premiere has been set on Mango Satellite TV, and the online live broadcast platform has been set on TT. The cost is not low. Well, of course they gave it to us. ”

"The process of the premiere is for you to ponder again, and if it is appropriate, it will be decided. ”

“…….”

"L.O. Have you finalized the itinerary? She's the heroine, don't say that she won't come if she has other arrangements. ”

"Oh yes, I reached out to Adele and she said she was interested in attending the premiere and would love to sing. ”

"How do I feel that the venue for the premiere will not be enough!"

"I still have a list of people to invite, all of whom are people in the online literature circle...... Haha, you're really more thoughtful than I thought, it turns out that you've already set your sights on the IPs in their hands, not to mention, these gods have a lot of IPs in their hands, but the main reason for the delay in selling and licensing is the same as what I thought at the beginning, I don't feel at ease to hand over the work to others to shoot! With the reputation of the previous TV series "Xuanyuan Sword Master", plus let them watch the movie this time, the IP on their hands should be able to hand over to us to shoot with confidence. ”

“…….”

On the afternoon of the next day, the single-day sales of Hou Muyun's new album "HOU-HOU" came out, 18 million!

Digital albums account for the majority, and the final statistics on major music platforms and iTunes are more than 12 million, that is, more than 12 million digital albums were sold in one day!

The sales volume of each digital album on domestic music platforms is 5 Chinese dollars, while in North America and other countries, especially on iTunes, the flat price is 3 US dollars. In terms of price alone, it is naturally nearly 4 times higher than some domestic music platforms, and this is naturally taken by iTunes, and it is impossible for Hou Muyun to have so much money.

Excluding digital albums, physical albums sold a total of 6 million.

6 million in a single day!

The physical album sold 6 million in a single day, which is a miracle that could not be created in the golden age of records more than ten or twenty years ago!

However, there are also some conveniences in this era that were not available before. For example, the convenience of distribution, for example, the publicity is in place.......

In addition, professional analysis is also related to Hou Muyun's use of nine languages in an album this time, which almost cover more than 80% of the world's population.

If it is an ordinary person, it is definitely not flattering, but Hou Muyun is different, who let him specialize in multiple languages, needless to say in terms of melody and tunes, the lyrics alone are enough to make the users of these nine languages greatly increase their intention to buy!

This data is much more terrifying than the sales of the single "Animist" at the beginning, and if you count the sales of digital albums, it is almost twice as much as "Animist"!

Of course, this is not to say that Hou Muyun's global appeal far exceeds Adele's, it can only be said that Hou Muyun's album this time is not only guaranteed to be of high quality, but also very flattering. And this method is very beneficial to Hou Muyun, who hit the world market for the first time, and the result is also very successful.

If it weren't for this trick, even if Hou Muyun could make this record an instant hit, it would not be possible to become so popular.

As for the fact that these songs have become crucial songs relative to the country in the future, it is all a story for later.

On July 23, the weekly sales data of "HOU-HOU" were counted, with physical sales exceeding 20 million and digital sales of nearly 50 million, totaling more than 70 million!

70 million in a single week, of which 20 million are physically sold!

Prior to that, the highest weekly record for physical sales was in the millions!

The difference is too big!

With such data, putting aside everything, with such data, Hou Muyun can become a well-deserved world-class singer!

Up to now, the sales of "HOU-HOU", coupled with the sales of Hou Muyun's first album "Roar", have become the second Chinese singer after Zhang Geshen to exceed 100 million album sales.

As for the single sales of "HOU-HOU", it directly entered the top three of all single album sales in the world history, and ranked second, and there is only one album on "HOU-HOU", that is, MJ's "Thriller", which is the only album in the world that has sold more than 100 million single albums so far!

Hou Muyun's "HOU-HOU" is considered by the industry to be the second album that most hopes to sell more than 100 million!

And judging from the current sales situation, it can even be concluded that "HOU-HOU" can 100% break 100 million and surpass "Thniller" 100%!

At the end of July, SS Group announced a data, that is, the total sales of the "Future Wars" series in the North American market exceeded 100 million, becoming the first science fiction novel in history to exceed 100 million sales in North America. As for the first novel in history to sell more than 100 million worldwide, it is naturally "Future War", which was achieved a few months ago.

The North American market alone can sell more than 100 million, which is definitely a perverted achievement, and this data is the height that "HP" could not reach in the North American market when it was the most popular.

So far, the "HP" series has sold 450 million copies worldwide, and the sales of "Future Wars" have barely reached 250 million worldwide, but as far as the North American market is concerned, the "HP" series has not broken 100 million so far, and it is absolutely impossible to beat "Future Wars"!

North America has a population of 360 million, and if you look at the proportion of the population, at least one in four people in North America holds a copy of "Future Wars" in their hands, which shows the popularity of the book in the North American market.

From this, it is also conceivable how many studios want to get the hard license of "Future Wars" from Hou Muyun during this time, or even the opportunity to cooperate!

With such a foundation, whether it is a movie or a TV series, it is a sure win!

And under such a good situation that the sales of "Future War" exceeded 100 million, this year's Hugo Award was drawn.

The Nebula Award is in April and the Hugo Award is in October, these two awards have the most important position in science fiction, known as the Nobel Double Prize for science fiction!

Without any surprise, Hou Muyun won the Hugo Award for Best Novel for "Future War", becoming the first Asian writer to win both the Hugo Award and the Nebula Award, and the 19th writer in history to win both the Hugo Award!

The awards party was held on August 5, also at Beverly Hills, LA, and Hou Muyun also joined Chu Qing to participate in the awards party.

Hou Muyun's speech and acceptance speech are probably like this:

"Not long ago, I got the good news that Future Wars has sold more than 100 million copies in North America. After hearing the news, my first reaction was-ahh——h For example, I almost forgot that Future War has not won the Hugo Award yet! Thank you for the reminder from the Presidium for reminding me of this! Of course, with this trophy, I should not forget it in the future!"

"About the ....... of Memory Management"

After giving a speech on memory, before closing his speech, Hou Muyun smiled again: "Having said so many things about memory, in fact, what I want everyone to remember the most is that on August 10th, my first movie "Xuanyuan Sword Master" written and directed and acted by myself will be released simultaneously in China and North America!
