101 Much anticipated

Liu Chen left the office, and Huang Weichen smoked a cigarette and fell into deep thought.

"This one named Shen Qiu can be wooed, but their storm music studio is suppressed. Think you can compete with me with a few good songs? It's just childish. ”

Thinking of this, Huang Weichen picked up the phone on the desk.

"Hey, Lao Hu, it's me, Huang Weichen."

"By the way, I'll tell you something, it's about the new album of the Storm Band......"

"Yes, if they find you, press ......"

Lao Hu on the phone is the boss of the Imperial Xinhua Bookstore, and there are two channels for selling albums this year, one is the audio-visual stores in various places, and the other is the bookstore. And the Imperial Xinhua Bookstore is the largest bookstore in the empire with the most chains.

Audio-visual stores in various places are actually the channels owned by each record company, and Xinhua Bookstore is a resource jointly owned by all record companies. The three major record companies in Beijing released new albums, and no one could avoid the channel of Xinhua Bookstore.

In Huang Weichen's concept, if the Storm Band wants to release an album, it is naturally impossible to bypass the traditional channel of Xinhua Bookstore. Even, Storm Music Studio may not have its own sales channels at all, and they may still find the three major music companies in Beijing to borrow their sales channels.

Of course, borrowing other people's channels is not in vain, and 20% to 40% of the profits in an album will be eaten up by channel companies. It's the sadness of small record labels and music studios. If you don't have your own channels, you have to be slaughtered by others.

Huang Weichen called Lao Hu and asked him to suppress the Storm Band, which had his own purpose. In the imperial music circle, Chinese music records have the most record channels. Huang Weichen himself is very optimistic about the upcoming release of "Rock and Roll New Forces" by the Storm Band, and he wants to force Storm Studios to find them Huale to help distribute it.

When the two songs "In the Spring" and "Don't Come to Entangle Me" were just waiting for the top ten on the song list, Huang Weichen asked to investigate the Storm Band and Storm Music Studio. The results of the final investigation revealed that the studio was only a small studio that had only been established for three years.

Although the Storm released an album, the sales were pitiful.

Regarding the identity of Qin Kun, the owner of Storm Music Studio, Huang Weichen did not find any useful information. This is also to blame for the fact that Young Master Qin is usually too low-key. Also, the sales channel of Ruyi convenience store is currently in the hands of Qin Kun's eldest brother, although Huale has also released albums through this channel before, but Huang Weichen did not connect this sales channel with Qin Kun himself.

Knowing this information, Huang Weichen began to calculate, he wanted to fight for the greatest interests of his Chinese music records.

"Maybe Storm Music Studio will come to your door tomorrow." After chatting with Lao Hu for a few words, Huang Weichen hung up the phone, and the rest was to wait. Wait for the Storm band to come to the door and beg for yourself, then take a hard bite to make the most profit.

If there was no Qin Kun and no Ruyi convenience store of the Qin family, Huang Weichen's calculation might really be realized. It's just that there are no ifs in reality.

…………

After the news was released by Storm Studios, there were also various voices in the imperial music circle.

"Is it a revival of rock music, or is it sensationalism! Today, Storm Studios announced that the studio's Storm Band is going to release a new album "Rock and Roll New Forces". ”

"After fifty years of the Empire Rock 'n' Roll slump, we're once again hearing the voices of rock musicians. Whether it's a revival of rock music or sensationalism, we'll see. In addition, the three new songs released by the Storm Band are currently ranked second, fourth and fifth on the song list. ”

"In the Spring", "Don't Come to Trouble Me" and "No Place to Shame" are very classic rock songs. I'm looking forward to the Storm's upcoming new album. ”

"The three rock songs are really good, and I'm looking forward to the new album. And what makes me doubt is the strength of Storm Music Studios. You know, releasing an album isn't just about having good songs. To release an album, you have to have a production line, as well as a complete sales channel. Does Storm Studios have a full sales pipeline? The author is skeptical. ”

"If you don't have a complete sales channel, then if you want to release a new album, you have to borrow the channels of the three major record companies. In this case, the bulk of the album's profits will be eaten up by the three major record companies, and Storm Studios will end up with little left. Unable to make a profit by releasing an album through guò, how long can Storm Studios last? Is the future worrying? ”

In the evening, Zhou Wanqing showed Shen Qiu the newspapers and magazines she had collected. The above is very optimistic about the comments and analysis.

"This is generally not optimistic about us." Shen Qiu threw the newspaper in his hand on the table and said to Zhou Wanqing, "Sister Zhou, what are you going to do?" "This "New Force of Rock and Roll" was all handled by Zhou Wanqing from the soundtrack, recording, mastering, to post-production. She had also just returned from a business trip.

"What else can I do? Cold salad. Anyway, everything that should be prepared is ready. ”

"How many sheets were produced?"

"Two hundred thousand."

Hearing Zhou Wanqing's words, Shen Qiu frowned: "So confident? ”

Zhou Wanqing waved her fist and said, "I don't think it's a problem to sell 200,000 tickets a week at all." ”

"Well, you're an expert in this area. Listen to you. By the way, don't you go to Beijing to contact other sales channels? ”

"No, you don't." Zhou Wanqing waved her hand and said, "The sales channel of Ruyi convenience store is enough. As long as our album is popular, audio-visual stores around the country will automatically come to the door. By the way, the college entrance examination is coming soon, how are your results? Where are you going to go to college? ”

"The magic capital of Shanghai. It's a little closer to Jiangcheng, and I can come back to see you often. ”

"I may not stay in Jiangcheng for a long time in the future. After the Storm Band becomes popular, they will definitely take on commercial performances, and I am their agent, so I will definitely follow around. ”

Shen Qiu looked at her somewhat emaciated cheeks, and said distressedly, "Why don't we recruit a few more people." You're obviously too busy to do it alone! ”

"After the release of the new album, I looked for it, and there were a few college classmates in the capital, although they didn't mix well, but they were all capable people. I'll bring them over when the time comes. ”

"Sister Zhou, you can do it." Shen Qiu waved his hand and no longer discussed the new album with Zhou Wanqing. The college entrance examination is still a week away, and he is busy studying now.

The Storm Band, which is owned by Storm Studios, is releasing a new album, which is a rock album. This incident not only caused turmoil in the imperial music circle, but also caused a storm among fans.

The majority of fans have high expectations for the album of the Storm Band. Since the beginning of the downturn of imperial rock, it is not without bands that have released rock albums, such as Qin Kun, who released an album two years ago. But this is the only time that it can cause such a lot of heat and attract sustained attention.

Why is this happening? The reason is very simple, it is because three of the Storm Band's songs are in the top ten on the order chart. In the past, although those bands released new songs and new albums, since the decline of rock in the 50s, no rock song has been in the top 10 of the list in more than 50 years.

And this time, the Storm Band appeared on three songs at once. How can a group of fans not look forward to it?
