Chapter 236 First Week Ranking
Chen Lang was a little anxious and nervous waiting for Chen Shufen's answer.
"The single-day sales of "Catchy" on the sixth day were 20,534 copies, and the single-day sales on the seventh day were 20,031 copies, plus the cumulative sales of 131933 in the previous five days, the total sales of your second album in the first week were 172498, and it successfully broke through the triple platinum certification, congratulations Lang Lang." Chen Shufen said happily.
Chen Lang shook his fist excitedly when he heard that his second album had achieved sales of more than three platinums in the first week.
This is a very amazing result, much higher than the sales of the first record compared to the same period last year, even if it loses to Xu Guanjie in the end, this result will not make Huaxing and Chen Lang too ugly.
However, Chen Lang is still young and vigorous, and he still thinks about the sales of Xu Guanjie's "Unforgettable You, Paper Boat", and wants to know who has the upper hand in this first week.
So after being happy for a while, he couldn't wait to ask, "What is Sam's record sales?" ”
"I knew you'd ask this." Chen Shufen shook her head with a smile and said, "The sales of "Catchy" are already a huge success for us, don't care too much about the rest." ”
Chen Lang's heart was cold when he heard this, but thinking that Chen Shufen was always playing tricks on himself in this regard, he still held back the apprehension in his heart and said, "I can accept it no matter what, even if I lose, it doesn't matter, I can afford to lose." But at least let me know the gap with Sam, right? ”
"Hahaha...... Chen Shufen said after a hearty laugh, "then you can listen well." The single-day sales of "Unforgettable You, Paper Boat" on the sixth day were 22,765 copies, and the single-day sales on the seventh day were 21,026 copies, and the cumulative sales of Ah Sam's record in the first week were 166819, and it also successfully broke through the triple platinum sales, but it was still 5,679 fewer than you. ”
"Yes, great, I won, I won!" Chen Lang jumped up happily when he heard the final answer.
The whole person ran and jumped back and forth in the house to vent the excitement in his heart, and at the same time relieved the huge psychological pressure in the past few days.
As a young man, coupled with incredible experiences, Chen Lang is now humorous and humble on the surface, but because he has a golden finger, Chen Lang can shock the world like a demon, so he can't help but become confident and even a little proud.
Fortunately, the influence of the otaku in the previous life neutralized and balanced Chen Lang's personality very well, so as not to make Chen Lang arrogant and conceited.
The current Chen Lang is definitely a young talent, but he also knows that this is the glorious and brilliant eighties, and many cattle are no worse than themselves with golden fingers.
The current battle between the old and the new can be said to be Chen Lang's real first time with a superstar in this world, in his previous life, he needed to look up to the general god of songs, but now he was pressed by himself, how could he not make Chen Lang ecstatic.
After venting his excitement for a while, Chen Lang returned to the phone, pretending to be serious, "I still won the first week, but the gap is gradually narrowing, and I can't take it lightly, Sister Chen." ”
"Poof...... Okay, don't pretend, kid, I heard all the excitement just now. Chen Shufen laughed when she heard Chen Lang's pretentious tone.
"But you're right, the gap between you and Ah Sam is getting smaller and smaller, but fortunately, the decline in your record sales is also gradually decreasing, and it can basically be on par with Ah Sam's slight decline, and now it depends on the durability of your market appeal.
After all, Sam has been the king of the music industry for many years, and his fans have strong purchasing power, so he has a lot of battery life, but Lang Lang, you also have a great advantage, that is, your ten songs are all classics.
At the same time, multiple school songs can definitely win the love of adults, and with the extension of the album release time, and the continuous playback of the MV around the clock, I believe that your record staying power will also be strengthened.
Now you or the two of you are no longer the biggest opponents, the biggest opponents are Zhen Ni of Golden Note Records, and Xu Xiaofeng of CBS/Xinli (Sony).
These two powerful singers will release their latest albums tomorrow in the second week of March, which will definitely be a huge challenge for you and Sam, and maybe there will be a big drop in sales.
We only have a week left to promote the album, and after the second week of March, we have to travel to Taiwan and Southeast Asia, which may have some impact on the sales of the record in Hong Kong. ”
Chen Lang frowned and nodded when he heard this, but Taiwan and Southeast Asia are definitely not to be missed if Huaxing has always wanted to open and occupy the market, so it is imperative to publicize the two places.
What we can do now is to seize the last week of this time to promote it and strive to get a good result in the base camp of Hong Kong.
"Then we'll continue to do our best to promote it tomorrow, if it really doesn't work, we can add some trips appropriately, but I can still hold it up these days." In order to have a good result, Chen Lang no longer dislikes propaganda and is tired.
"Okay, I'll make appropriate arrangements, now you hurry up and have a good rest, and I'll personally pick you up tomorrow to participate in the publicity." Chen Shufen hung up the phone after speaking.
After Chen Lang put down the phone, he also hurried back to the house to rest, so as to cope with the high-intensity and intensive publicity in the next week.
Chen Lang fell asleep with a smile, while Xu Guanjie shook his head with a wry smile.
Xu Guanjie also asked his third brother Xu Guanying to buy a "Catchy" record in private, and after listening to the whole record, Xu Guanjie knew that this was a real classic.
His own record is already considered a masterpiece, but it is still a lot worse than it, such a quality record, coupled with the sentimental nostalgia in the campus songs, as time goes by, more and more people will understand and love this record, and spend money to buy it, its battery life is not low, and it is probably very difficult for me to surpass Chen Lang.
However, for the sales of his record to be able to obtain three platinums within a week, both Xu Guanjie himself and Polygram are already very satisfied.
If it weren't for meeting an amazing little talent, I'm afraid no one would be able to beat Xu Guanjie.
However, although it is difficult, Xu Guanjie is not like giving up now, as long as the overall situation is undecided, everything still has a chance, whether it is for himself or for his fans, Xu Guanjie must go all out and never admit defeat until the last moment.
The next day, the first day of the second week of March, major media newspapers quoted the data of Golden Records' "Hong Kong Album Chart" to report on the first week of Chen Lang and Xu Guanjie's showdown.
Chen Lang's second album "Catchy" on the Hong Kong album chart occupied the top spot with an astonishing sales of 172498 albums.
This result broke the sales record of the weekly champion of the Hong Kong album chart.
At the same time, it also became the second youngest record of the weekly champion of the Hong Kong album chart, and the first in this record is Chen Lang, whose "Lang Lang Qiankun" also won the sales championship in the first week, when Chen Lang was only 16 years old last year.
Chen Lang has already monopolized two records on the Hong Kong album chart.
The second place is Xu Guanjie's "Unforgettable You, Paper Boat", with a cumulative sales of 166819 in the first week.
The result of more than three platinums is usually the absolute champion sales, but it is a pity that he met a demonic little talent and can only be relegated to the runner-up.
The third place was "On Stage", which sold 50,126 copies.
Rowan, the king of variety from EMI (Baidai), this is the third week of the release of this record, and he can still get platinum sales, which shows that the charm of the king of variety is unstoppable.
Even when encountering the well-known dispute between the old and the new in Hong Kong that has been hyped by the media, there is no sign of weakness.
The third place was Cai Fenghua, who achieved 35,214 sales.
Also as a newly famous singer, the red-lipped prince still achieved good results in the second week of the release of the record "The Beginning of Man", and with the sales of the first week, the record of "The Beginning of Man" is expected to be triple platinum certified.
The fifth place is "Infatuation" from Rianna, as a popular female singer in the past three years, she still sold 32,101 copies three weeks after the release of the record, and one of the top three under Teresa Teng is worthy of the name.
Au Ruiqiang's "Connecting the Music Line" sold 30,456 copies in its second week of release, ranking sixth.
Although this powerful singer is not a big hit, his strength should not be underestimated, and it is a certainty that this record will be certified double platinum.
The next seven to tenth four singers, Chen Lang is very unfamiliar, there is no name of these people in his memory, it seems that his future achievements are limited.
The tenth place in the list also achieved more than 15,000 sales, compared to the standard of 15,000 gold records in later generations, which shows the prosperity of the Hong Kong music scene now, in this small city, the top ten records have all achieved more than 15,000 sales.
The total sales volume of more than 500,000 copies in a week has a lot to do with the intensive release of records by many top singers during this period, but it also shows how huge the Hong Kong music record market is.
After Golden Records' "Hong Kong Album Chart" landed in major music magazines, Commercial Radio's "Commercial Station Chinese Song Array" was also released.
In the latest issue of "Shangtai Chinese Song Array", the top ten songs are "The Rainy Season at the Age of Seventeen", "Run", "Unforgettable You", "My Future Is Not a Dream", "Sing If You Want to Sing", "Paper Boat", "Sailor", "Laser", "Infatuation and Robbery", and "The Beginning of Man".
Chen Lang alone won five of the ten songs, Xu Guanjie also won two, and the remaining three songs were from Luo Wen, Rena and Cai Fenghua.
Commercial Radio's "Commercial Station Chinese Song Array" caused an uproar, but after thinking about it, everyone felt that it was reasonable.
Because the music channel of commercial radio is the most popular music channel among young people in Hong Kong, most of the people who order songs here are young people.
Therefore, it is not surprising that Chen Lang arranged five of the ten songs, after all, Chen Lang's appeal among young people is absolutely unmatched.
