Chapter 194: Heading for the Platinum Record
patted his boss on the door, and finally thought that he did get a batch of CDs from Xuan Ting the day before yesterday, in addition to the albums of popular singers, there was also a not-so-famous album, which was thrown to the top of the shelves by him.
"You wait, you wait." Xiang Boss came to the second row of shelves, and the Chinese pop group took down a CD at the very top, which was exactly the "Wind Gesture" that everyone was looking for.
The man took the CD and asked, "How much is it, I'll buy one." ”
Swiped the price to the boss, eighty.
The man paid and left in a hurry.
Why are three people in a row asking about this album, Xiang Boss was a little curious, he opened the CD player, took out the Xia Yuqi album that was playing inside, and put in this "Wind Posture".
The first song is "Listening to the Wind".
The soft sound of the wind and the moving melody immediately attracted Xiang Boss, and he listened to the singer quietly, and at this time it seemed that the dead winter outside the window had become vibrant.
Boss Xiang is 50 years old this year, and many young people don't like the old songs he appreciates. Even though the video store was playing Xia Yuqi's album just now, Boss Xiang didn't like it, just to take into account the feelings of customers.
Unexpectedly, this young girl's new album made him find a sense of resonance.
Not only the boss, but also the clerks in the video store listened to the song quietly and forgot what was in hand.
The glass door of Jingshan Audiovisual City was pushed open again, this time it was a young man, who was just about to ask something, when he suddenly stopped and listened to the singer.
The young man was a little excited and said, "Yes, yes, boss, it's this album "Wind Posture", I want one." ”
"Okay, eighty dollars!" Selling albums that you also like, and the boss will also get pleasure from it.
The young man couldn't put it down with the album, thanked him and left.
From 12:12 p.m. to 3 p.m., all of the "Wind Gesture" albums were sold out, except for the one that Xiang Boss was playing.
When a middle-aged woman also asked her boss for "The Gesture of the Wind", Xiang Boss said helplessly: "The CD has been sold out." ”
The middle-aged woman was not happy, she said: "How can it be sold out, what is in your CD player after selling out." ”
Xiang Boss was dumbfounded, this is an open CD, "I kept one for myself, but it has been opened, so it stands to reason that it is not for sale." ”
"If you don't sell it, give me this one, I have traveled all over the imperial capital and there is no one to sell, only you have it here."
The middle-aged woman took out a red chairman's head from her pocket and handed it to the boss, saying, "Don't look for it, hurry up and give me this CD." ”
Collect the money from the boss, hand the CD to the middle-aged woman, and muttered in her heart, this orange group is really amazing, why are so many people rushing to buy their albums.
The phone at the front desk rang, and I picked up the phone to the boss, it was from the sales department of Xuanting Entertainment.
He asked: "Hello, I'm the sales department of Xuanting Entertainment, may I ask how the sales of Jingshan Audiovisual "Wind Posture" are." ”
As soon as Xuan Ting Entertainment asked this, he became angry with the boss and said, "I was about to call you, why don't you send me a few more copies of such a good album!" Yes! Twenty copies, send it to Hanako, tell your leader, I won't do it tomorrow, I will ask for three hundred in the afternoon, no, five hundred albums, prepare five hundred copies for me, and I will go to the sales office of your imperial capital to get the goods. ”
Xuan Ting smiled bitterly and said: "Boss Xiang, we are also out of stock here, there are more than 600 gaps in online sales, and you are about to take 500 in one breath now, where can we find it for you?" ”
Xiang said to the boss: "I don't care, anyway, prepare five hundred copies for me as soon as possible, twenty pieces today is not enough to sell an hour later, if it is a weekend, one or two hundred pieces can be easily sold." ”
Xuan Ting had no choice but to reply: "We are doing our best to stock up on the goods, and we will call you as soon as the goods are available." ”
The sales data of all CD physical stores were transmitted to Lin Xing through the mailbox, and the data was very beautiful, and all the CDs were basically sold out within two days, which only happened ten years ago when the Four Heavenly Kings released a new album.
Lin Xing couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, and he said as if venting: "I knew that this album would be popular, I knew that this album would be popular!" If Yang Yichen hadn't stopped it, where would there be such a thing today! ”
Lin Xing began to blame Xuanting Entertainment for not having an adventurous spirit, how could he prepare 5,000 albums, which is not enough to sell at all!
He immediately reported to Xu Song, the executive president of Xuanting, and asked the production department to seize the time to contact the production line to produce records.
If the consumer's purchase needs are not met at once, they are likely to choose pirated CDs, and then Xuanting Entertainment's losses are really heavy.
Sure enough, there has been a lot of noise on Xuanting Entertainment's Weibo, and fans have responded that they can't buy CDs, and they can't buy CDs if they have money, and in the second-hand market, the genuine CD of "The Gesture of the Wind" has been fried from 100 yuan to 200 yuan, and even at this price, some people have bid to buy it.
In the eyes of these fans, this is the first album of an orange, an orange will inevitably become popular in the future, the first album is very collectible, and now it is bought for more than 100 or 200, and in five or six years, maybe others will not be able to buy it for 3,400.
At the same time, someone on a shopping website secretly bought a pirated version of "The Gesture of the Wind", and even if it was a pirated version, its daily sales reached 200 copies.
The digital version of the CD of the genuine music portal was officially launched a month after the album was released, and some third-rate pirated websites gave the download link of "Wind Gesture" in advance, and for a time the traffic of this website reached the top ten of the traffic of music websites, and even exceeded many regular music portals.
Looking at these scenes, Lin Xing beat his chest, these are all money! It's all money! If Xuan Ting's goods are a little more prepared, where will it be the turn of these pirate websites and pirate merchants to make money.
A week later, Xuanting Entertainment contacted Huaneng, Sony and other record production lines, and finally produced 10,000 CD records, which were successively shipped to the warehouses of major audio and video stores and online shopping malls, and the piracy situation was a little better, Lin Xingchang breathed a sigh of relief, and if it continues to be sold at this rate, "The Gesture of the Wind" is very likely to hit the platinum sales in the middle of this year - 100,000 records.
