Chapter 40. Trip to the United States (10)
Li Zhengxian hurried to Universal Music, came to Pete's office, pushed open the door, and said with a smile on his face: "Pete, I miss you to death, hey, I haven't seen you all night, Pete, you are so handsome?" ”
Pete didn't lift his head, turned around slightly and continued to look at the information in his hand.
Li Zhengxian was extremely embarrassed, and he had no choice but to take care of his own losses, and continued to smile and said: "Pete, how can you say that you are the music director of a large company, how can you meet me in the same way?" How inconsistent is that? Right? Peter? ”
Pete was already not very angry, and was ready to embarrass Li Zhengxian a little, but when he heard Li Zhengxian's words of shirking responsibility like this, Pete was angry, snorted unhappily, and continued to remain silent.
Li Zhengxian really had no choice, so he had to surrender and said sincerely: "Okay Pete, don't take it as an example, I was wrong, forgive me once"!
Pete raised his head and looked at Lee Jung-hyun calmly, his expression still didn't seem to be quite convinced, and Lee Jung-hyun nodded seriously again to show that he was telling the truth.
After Pete got Li Zhengxian's affirmation, he didn't continue to worry too much about Li Zhengxian, and said seriously: "Prince, it's not that I deliberately embarrassed you, it's that you are not very responsible for your work attitude, which makes people very unhappy, next time I hope you can care more about your own affairs."
Lee Jung-hyun heard Pete's sincerity, and bowed guilty to Pete and apologized: "Pete, I'm sorry, I'll pay attention to my attitude in the future, promise"!
Pete nodded with a smile and said lightly: "Prince, I believe you will do it, okay, don't say more, take a look for yourself!" ”
As he spoke, he handed the information in his hand to Li Zhengxian, who took the information and sat on the sofa next to him and looked at it carefully.
It turned out to be a sales report on the first day of "The Mark of the Rain" and an attitude survey of the crowd's reaction.
Li Zhengxian continued to look at it without pause, the numbers are indeed correct, New York sold more than 30,000 copies in one day, and 110,830 copies in the United States, if you add the orders of his teachers and schools, it is more than 350,000 copies, and Li Zhengxian is already happy.
And whether it is New York or Warshengton, all newspapers and media have uniformly given the front page headlines, and Lee Jung-hyun and "The Mark of Rain" have completely opened up the American market.
However, according to the results of the secret investigation sent out by Universal Music, Lee Jung-hyun was surprised, and the praise rate reached 92%, which can be imagined.
Li Zhengxian put aside the finished information, stood up, and bowed to Pete gratefully, "Pete, it's hard work, although it's just a few simple pieces of paper, but it is the greatest encouragement and comfort to me, I will continue to work hard, and I won't let your efforts go to waste."
Pete was very satisfied with Li Zhengxian's serious attitude and daring personality, so he nodded and said: "Let's work together to create our own achievements, prince, I am very optimistic about you, let us witness our future together."
Lee Jung-hyun calmly walked up to Pete, shook hands with Pete very happily, encouraged and exhorted each other.
After leaving Universal Music, Lee Jung-hyun went back to the hotel to pack up briefly, because in the next few days, Lee Jung-hyun and Pete were going to work together to promote their works in the United States.
The sales on the first day are not as simple as imagined, because there are a lot of private orders, and the real sales will depend on the second day later, which is the real sales.
Therefore, in order to launch his first shot in the United States, Lee Jung-hyun painstakingly managed his own propaganda efforts and models, and in order not to let his works fall too violently, Lee Jung-hyun could only keep hyping himself.
The specific operation depends on the situation and environment on the spot, and Li Zhengxian has made 12 points of preparation for this publicity, and even made 10 sets of plans to prepare for the shortage.
The first stop is New York, the second stop is Warshengton, then Alaska, Hawaii
After flying back and forth for five days, traveling all over the United States to designated cities, and returning from a circle, Li Zhengxian was exhausted, as if he had collapsed, and he was haggard and made people feel the demeanor of the past.
However, this was not in vain, in five days, only five days, "The Mark of the Rain" officially exceeded one million copies in the United States, reaching one million and fifty thousand.
This is already the result of a first-class singer in the United States, although there is still a little distance from the top singers, but this is not Lee Jung-hyun's album? It's just a CD of a single.
After all the publicity and came to the hotel, Lee Jung-hyun slept beautifully for a day and a night, and when Lee Jung-hyun woke up, it was already the night of the next day, so he simply ate some food at the hotel and rushed back to the bedroom.
At the same time as the United States declared, Lee Jung-hyun did not cut off contact with Lee so-man, and Lee Jung-hyun also cared very much about South Korea's publicity and sales, which was his base camp after all.
After learning that he had been praised by the media in South Korea, Lee Jung-hyun was very happy, and even in the Korean music industry, Lee Jung-hyun has been praised as "Korean Music Kwai Bao" and "Korean Glory".
What is even more exaggerated is that after learning of Lee Jung-hyun's achievements in the United States, the latent vanity of the South Koreans has been inflated again, and in one fell swoop Lee Jung-hyun has been exaggerated to the top.
And after learning that the sales volume in the United States exceeded one million, South Korea couldn't calm down at all, and all the words of praise appeared, where anyone appeared in South Korea, there would be Lee Jung-hyun's promotional posters, and there would be people talking about Lee Jung-hyun, so in five days, South Korea's sales have exceeded one million, and as soon as it crosses, there is a trend of being an example of Korean artists.
What is the Celebrity Effect? At this time in South Korea, Lee Jung-hyun is vividly embodied, Lee Jung-hyun's songs, Lee Jung-hyun's piano music, and Lee Jung-hyun's hit TV series all appear in front of everyone with amazing results, which is beyond people's reach.
The finale of "Blue Life and Death Love" ended with a rating of 65.2%, breaking the 64.4% rating of "First Love", which is the No. 1 rating in South Korea, and becoming the veritable No. 1 Korean TV rating.
These glories are only produced when Lee Jung-hyun did not return to China, Lee Jung-hyun believes that as long as he goes back and publicizes it a little, there will definitely be a more obvious effect, but these are enough, Lee Jung-hyun is very content, these are all things that happened in South Korea some time ago, and we return our eyes to the United States.
Back in his bedroom at the hotel, Lee Jung-hyun packed his luggage and dialed Smith's phone.
"Hello teacher, I'm prince"
"Well, yes teacher, the propaganda was successful"
"I called to tell the teacher that I will return to China tomorrow, and there is still one last day before the visa time, and if I don't go back, I will be sent back."
"Yes, I will continue to work hard, I will not lose your old man's face, I promise"
"Okay, teacher, then I'll go over and tell her in person later."
"Well, the teacher pays attention to the body"
"Well, goodbye, teacher".
Hanging up the phone, Lee Jung-hyun suddenly remembered that he didn't seem to have been with Larry yet. Peggy got in touch and was about to call Larry out for a drink when she remembered the ringtone of her phone.
Li Zhengxian looked at the caller ID of his mobile phone very suspiciously, Li Zhengxian was very puzzled, how could she call herself? Didn't you say that you wouldn't get in touch? What are you doing now?
Li Zhengxian smiled bitterly and shook his head to answer the phone, and deliberately said in an unfamiliar tone: "Aniaseyo, may I ask who you are"?
There was no response on the other end of the phone, and Li Zhengxian seemed to be able to hear the other party's breathing, so Li Zhengxian thought that since he was pretending to be stupid, he would pretend to be the end.
"Excuse me, do you have something to do with me? If I don't talk anymore, I'll hang up! ”
When the other party heard that Li Zhengxian was going to hang up the phone, he paused, but still opened his mouth and asked: "Have you deleted my number?"
Li Zhengxian smiled secretly, but since she had already spoken, she would be exposed if she continued to pretend, a little revenge, Li Zhengxian was already very satisfied, who let her leave secretly at that time, and asked himself not to contact her again, and the angry Li Zhengxian was helpless for a long time.
So he explained: "Oh, it's Huiqiao? Didn't you tell me not to contact you? I was afraid that I couldn't control it, so I had to delete it, what? Is there something wrong"?
Song Huiqiao didn't know whether to be happy or angry when he heard Li Zhengxian's explanation, and then said lightly: "Congratulations, you have achieved such good results in the United States, and even our TV series is very popular, I hope you can become more and more popular."
Li Zhengxian smiled, shook the mobile phone in his hand, and said calmly: "Are you calling just to congratulate me?" Oh well, I got it, thank you.
"Zhengxian, actually, I am looking for you for something to ask you for help." Hearing that Li Zhengxian was going to hang up the phone, Song Huiqiao stammered and said his purpose.
Li Zhengxian knew that Song Huiqiao would not call because of simple congratulations, so Li Zhengxian said: "Okay! I'm kidding you, I know you're looking for me when you have something, let's talk about it! What's the matter"?
Song Huiqiao shyly wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into, but fortunately no one could see it, otherwise he would definitely be shy and unable to lift himself up to see people.
After hesitating for a moment, Song Huiqiao still said: "Jungxian, Song Chengxian OPPA wants to ask me, do you have a suitable candidate for the actor in your next work?" He wants to recommend himself to you".
Mustering up the courage, Song Huiqiao still said it firmly, whether it will be successful or not, it is not something she can decide, so it is a lot easier at this time.
Li Zhengxian was stunned, and was surprised in his heart, it turned out that even if she appeared, she and Song Chengxian still intersected, maybe this is fate, right?
Li Zhengxian sorted out his emotions and said lightly: "I'm sorry, I've already selected the actor, I still have something to do, so be it!" Good bye! ”
didn't give Song Huiqiao any chance to speak, Li Zhengxian hung up the phone, because Li Zhengxian was very unhappy, so he separated from himself.
On the other end, Song Huiqiao looked at the hung up phone in a daze, but he was wondering in his heart, "Is he jealous?" Hanging up the phone so angrily must have been jealous, thinking about Song Huiqiao and laughing happily
