Chapter 458: The Second Week

Thank you for the great reward of Tai Chi Yin Yang Fish and the big monthly pass of hy8021!

-------------------------------------------------

The stunning performance of the first week of "Rolling Smoke" was unexpected by everyone, but it was also reasonable.

Chen Lang's influence among teenagers is incomparable, and as teenagers become more and more enthusiastic about their idols, it is natural that Chen Lang's records will sell a super high sales.

At the same time, "Lang Smoke Rolling" is Chen Lang's first record after becoming a superstar in the music industry, in addition to Chen Lang's many irons, many neutral fans are also very curious and looking forward to this record, so it is reasonable that "Lang Smoke Rolling" can burst into amazing sales.

But to everyone's surprise, more than 180,000 copies were sold in the first week, you must know that rock has not been mainstream in Hong Kong, only popular among many underground bands, so far, Hong Kong has not been a successful rock singer or rock band.

As a result, rock 'n' roll is very unfamiliar, and the only impression in our minds is mostly negative/information such as alternative, decadent and hysterical.

This cannot be regarded as a disadvantage for Chen Lang, who has just opened up the adult market with campus songs, because everyone's negative impression of rock and roll, many people may give up this rock record, so there will be many media who are not optimistic about this record.

But the final result proved that Chen Lang cannot be measured by common sense, he seems to be born to break one record after another, and refreshed everyone's perception of genius, sales, and the perfect combination of art and business with his unparalleled musical talent.

Therefore, many people who are not optimistic about this record have been slapped in the face.

At the same time, this record is also subtly influencing Hong Kong people's impression of rock, of course, the deeper impact is still those underground rock bands, which may only plant a seed now, but will blossom in a few years.

Now most of the media newspapers that have been supporting Chen Lang or maintaining neutrality have been hyped up about "Lang Smoke Rolling", and many media outlets that have expressed disapproval of Chen Lang's latest album have remained silent.

It is impossible to apologize, after all, the media is still the uncrowned king, and the current media is not as completely undisciplined as later generations, and the weather changes like June, so it has to remain silent.

But these media did not plan to stop, although the first week of sales of "Rolling Smoke" caught them off guard, but at least they were prepared, and now the media is waiting for the second week of sales of "Rolling Smoke".

After the infinitely high expectations and enthusiasm were consumed by the first week, the second week was the test of whether the record was truly fully accepted by everyone.

The first week's sales were quite deceptive, leading many to think that Chan Lang's record would continue to break the Hong Kong record for single record sales, and only real industry insiders know whether rock 'n' roll was really suddenly accepted by everyone all of a sudden, and it depends on the sales of the second week.

In the eager anticipation of Chen Lang's fans, as well as the suspicion of industry insiders and major newspapers and media, a week has passed in a flash, and the time has come to the beginning of May, and the latest issue of the Hong Kong album list is hot again.

People who follow Chen Lang's latest record sales can't wait to open the newspaper to find the answers they want to know.

The focus of this week's list is still last week's amazing performance of "Lang Smoke", and at the same time, "Fog Love", which shows the ability to sell for a long time, has also received the attention of many fans, let's take a look at the top 10 album sales last week.

There is no suspense about the record at the top of the list, it is still from Lang Lang's "Lang Smoke Rolling", which sold 90,325 copies last week, released for two weeks, and sold 271448 copies cumulatively.

……

Ranking seventh on the list is "Fog Love", which has been attracting the attention of fans since its release, sold 4,541 copies last week, and the release time was eight weeks, with a cumulative sales of 288,670 copies, a decrease of only 12% compared with last week, once again showing the super endurance of this record, Alan Tam has become one of the most watched singers in the music industry because of this record.

……”

After the Hong Kong album list was released, it aroused cheers from Chen Lang's fans and newspaper media.

Fans are rejoicing and proud that their idol's record has once again topped the charts and has sold more than 270,000 copies in two weeks.

As for Alan Tam, who has been attracting everyone's attention recently, in the eyes of Chen Lang's fans, the two-week sales of his idol records are comparable to his seven-week sales, and the two are not at the same level at all, not to mention that Alan Tam wants to be tied with Lang Lang, even Chen Baiqiang has already been thrown out of two streets by Lang Lang.

In the eyes of Chen Lang's fans, the current and future Hong Kong music scene will only belong to Lang Lang alone.

Also happy are many media newspapers that were slapped in the face because they were not optimistic about "Lang Smoke".

Although "Smoke Rolling" once again won the top spot on the Hong Kong album charts and achieved a total sales of 271448 in two weeks, what does it mean that sales in the second week fell by 50% compared to the first week?

The quality of the songs in the "Smoke Rolling" record is undoubted, but compared with Chen Lang's previous records, the decline in the second week is significantly higher than in the past.

Then it shows that this rock record is indeed a little unsuitable in Hong Kong, and many people may have changed their impression of rock because of this record, but it has not yet reached the point of buying this record in person.

So the day after the Hong Kong album chart came out, the major media that were silent last week were like chicken blood, and they once again published unfavorable reports on the record "Lang Smoke Rolling".

"Record sales fell by 50%, creating the highest decline in the second week of Chen Lang Records!"

"Behind the 270,000 sales is a record huge decline!"

"Two consecutive championships can't hide the unsuitability of rock records!"

"After the crazy anticipation and enthusiasm, the fans didn't quite identify with rock 'n' roll!"

"Although the record is classic, rock is still too unfamiliar!"

……

For a while, reports that the rock of "Rolling Smoke" did not gain fan recognition other than teenagers flooded Hong Kong, and many fans who were happy to see only 270,000 sales were stunned for a moment, apparently everyone didn't notice the huge decline hidden under the super high sales.

Rock itself is very niche in the Hong Kong music scene, there are very few fans who love rock, except for many underground rock bands, there are really not too many rock fans in Hong Kong, and rock has no fertile ground to thrive in Hong Kong.

Therefore, even if "Smoke Rolling" is very good, even a classic, it is really unrealistic to expect Hong Kong music fans to accept rock and roll all at once, and even fall madly in love with rock and roll.

Chen Lang was not angry when he saw the media reports, and he was satisfied with the current results.

The full rise of rock in Hong Kong was in 1987, which can be called the golden year of Hong Kong bands, and because one of the main characteristics of the band is originality, 1987 was also a glorious year for Hong Kong local singers to show their creative ability, blowing a breath of fresh air into the Hong Kong music scene that has been adapted into the wind.

The rise of the band in 1987 was accompanied by the collective explosion of many bands such as beyond, Daming faction, Tai Chi and so on, and then beyond brought rock to the whole of Asia, making the whole Asia crazy for their rock, and at the same time sending the band into the music hall.

Now in 1984, because of Chen Lang's "Lang Smoke Rolling", Hong Kong people were exposed to mature and unique rock earlier, although Chen Lang didn't know how much influence his record had on rock bands such as beyond, but Chen Lang knew that his wings were at least slightly instigated.

In addition, in addition to reporting on the unadaptability of "Lang Smoke Billowing", the media once again compared Alan Tam with Chen Lang.

There is only one result, although Alan Tam can't shake Chen Lang's popularity and status now, as long as PolyGram continues to spend a lot of money to create Lun-style love songs for Alan Tam, then Alan Tam will always have a day to really challenge Chen Lang.

Chen Lang smiled at this, no one can know better than himself the huge influence of Lun-style love songs, so Chen Lang has been preparing for Alan Tam after the love trilogy, and then it will really be a dragon and tiger fight.

Obviously, the reports of many media still have a great impact on the majority of Hong Kong citizens, and these media reports can be regarded as having something to say, and the current rock and roll is indeed a little early, and it is impossible to reach the point of being in the future.

Many Chen Lang's fans were anxious when they saw this, but fortunately, after the on-demand lists of the two Hong Kong radio stations came out, everyone's anxious mood calmed down a lot.

In the latest issue of the Chinese song competition TOP10, "Lang Smoke Billowing" went one step further, in addition to the previous six songs still dominate the list, "Dead to Love" also entered the TOP10.

At this time, the top 10 of the Chinese song competition array of commercial radio "Lang Smoke Rolling" occupied seven records, and Chen Lang's strength can be seen.

At the same time, in RTHK's Chinese song dragon and tiger list, "Glorious Years" successfully reached the top, while "Red Sun" and "Blooming Life" also entered the top ten of the list, but unfortunately "Once You" was squeezed out of the list, plus "How much love can come back", now "Lang Smoke" has four songs in the top ten.

This achievement equals the record of the number of songs sung by the same singer jointly held by Xu Guanjie and Chen Lang, and many Chen Lang fans feel a pity for this, if "Once You" persists, this record will completely belong to Chen Lang alone.

But despite this, fans and fans are still excited about the super popularity and strength of their idols, and the media just said that "Lang Smoke Billowing" is not adaptable, suggesting that the results of this record will continue to decline, but the charts of the two radio stations instantly gave them another slap in the face, and it was so loud.
