228 world-class

Of course, for the reporters who followed Malaysia, the most important thing is the report on the "China-Japan-Korea Asian Song Meeting", the reporters of the three countries will not only report on their own stars, but also on the stars of the two foreign countries, especially as the star lineup sent by the three countries has become stronger, the attention of the whole Asia to this performance has increased a lot.

And China, Japan and South Korea about the failure of the Sinking-Sinking Band in Europe and the United States are no longer so concerned because of more and more reports coming back from Malaysia, and a total of 30 players sent by the three countries, each of which is worthy of a special report, of course, the Sinking-Sinking Band has reported enough recently, so this time, they are the least concerned.

And other stars, especially those superstars who are kings and queens in Asia, this time, China came to five, South Korea came five, and Japan directly came to seven.

Seven superstars at the level of Asian kings and queens, this is the most powerful plastic surgery sent by a country in history.

Under normal circumstances, the Three Kingdoms still follow the configuration of five kings and five top first-line singers to select singers, but this time, Japan obviously wants to play a little bigger.

Before the list of Japanese players was announced, no one knew that they would send such a strong lineup to participate in the performance, of course, maybe it was just that the Chinese side didn't know, because at least, the Korean side didn't mean to be upset at all because of this news, it seemed that they had a Taishan collapse in front of them, and their faces did not change, or, they already knew, so they were not surprised, nor panicked.

Only the Chinese side is worried because of Japan's unruliness, although the folk competition, everyone has never admitted it on the surface, but in their hearts, everyone regards this as an alternative competition.

Now the Japanese side suddenly "unruly" sent seven king-level singers, which obviously means to suppress the other two countries.

The person in charge of the Huaxia side once went to the Japanese participating team to negotiate, but the other party replied that it was really beyond everyone's expectations.

The Japanese side did not admit that they broke the default rules, but told everyone that two of their king-level singers were selected because they were asked by Korean sponsors, and it was not that they wanted to break the rules.

The two king-level singers who participated in the performance are both stars who have signed endorsements with South Korea's Samsung, and their contracts clearly stipulate that they will participate in the Asian Song Festival every year.

For this, they did not elaborate on how they operated, but the general meaning is that there were no these two in the original plan of the Japanese side, but later because of the requirements of Samsung and the company's public relations to which these two king-level singers belonged, the two first-line singers became two king-level singers.

The people of the Huaxia team came back and said that the clouds and mountains were covered in fog, and everyone didn't know whether they understood or didn't understand, and finally the general leader of the team concluded, "This is the alliance between South Korea and Japan to deal with us, and we must make all preparations." ”

Whether South Korea and Japan are allied in this performance, Huang Tian and a few people don't know, and they don't bother to know, before the performance starts, in addition to rehearsals, they either play games or make phone calls, and Huang Tian also knows by phone that Avril has achieved his first diamond record, no need to wait for the sales statistics of the second album, and now Avril is a world-class singer recognized worldwide.

In the first step, her goal is to become a world superstar, and the standard of this goal is somewhat similar to that of world-class singers, that is, album sales, the standard of world-class singers is to have an album with 10 million sales, and the standard of a world superstar is to reach a total of 100 million album sales.

And in the statistics of 100 million copies, there is also a standard, that is, when the sales of each album are lower than platinum, that is, when they are less than one million, they are not included in the 100 million sales of the world's superstars, which also avoids some people from releasing albums indiscriminately for the sake of 100 million copies, and using quantity to make up for the gap in quality.

Not only that, the world superstar is a higher level on the basis of world-class singers, that is, when you don't reach the world-class, you are not qualified to impact the world superstar, that is, when you don't have an annual sales record that can reach diamond records and sell 10 million copies, you are not qualified to impact the ranks of world superstars.

This is a road with no shortcuts, no falsehoods, no back doors, any singer who wants to hit a higher level of music, must rely on his own strength step by step, no one can skip the world-class and directly enter the world superstar, unless you release an album, the annual sales can directly reach 100 million copies.

Moreover, when impacting the world-class, the world's superstar, there is another hard requirement, that is, your global popularity, for example, your album can only be released in your own country, or in the region, and it has also reached an annual sales of 10 million copies, but no one in other regions and countries in the world knows you at all, and no one has heard your songs, so sorry, you still can't enter the world-class, you can only be regarded as the top artist in the region at most, just like the king and queen of Asia.

There are many kings and queens in Asian history who have been blocked from the world-class by this rigid requirement, and their albums can sell well in Asia, selling 10 million copies a year, but in Europe and the United States, it is not easy for their albums to sell 1 million copies a year, let alone their popularity in Europe and the United States.

Among so many countries and regions in the world, Asia, North America, and Europe are the most developed, so when music artists hit the world, they basically evaluate whether an artist's reputation has reached the world-class level based on the popularity of these three regions.

As for other regional countries, such as Africa, because of the poor and backward, when counting album sales and popularity, they are directly removed, because the consumption power of these regions is too low.

However, even so, many Asian artists and people have not been able to break through the shackles of the world, and in this regard, Europeans and Americans have a natural advantage, which may be one of the benefits of Europeans who explored and eventually established countries on the American continent, their language and culture are basically the same.

Relatively speaking, although Asian culture has been inherited for a longer time, it is indeed very different from the culture of Europe and the United States, so that it is difficult for Asian artists, especially Chinese singers, to open up the situation in Europe and the United States.

Now that Avril has entered the world-class first, Huang Tian looked at the starry sky outside the window and said to himself, "How long will we wait to enter the world-class?" ”
