Chapter 148: Shocked
……
Lin Xinru's EP album "Another Face Xinru" was written by Lin Ze, who enjoyed the new generation of musical geniuses at the time, and sang the popular purple Lin Xinru.
As soon as it was released, it was in short supply, and all video stores in Hong Kong and Taiwan were crowded with fans at the door due to insufficient stock, waiting for delivery.
Of course, their wishes were contained, and the owner of the video store was overjoyed, and said with a sad face that the printing was insufficient, and that production was being stepped up, and that it would be sufficient in two days, so please come back then.
Of course, this is the kind of hunger sales method that He Xiuqiong borrowed from when "Ghost Shadow" was released in country M......
But the mainland is different, how many albums are sold, cough cough, the mainland's piracy is too strong, I have to earn time with them and grab the market!
This is not to say that there is no piracy in X port and T Bay, although these two places claim to be places of democracy and freedom, what copyright, patent and other laws are relatively perfect, but most of the black factories that print pirated copies have the background of the underworld, and the underworld is illegal, and will they abide by your laws?
There is no pirated version of "Another Side Core Ru" in these two places, but it is because of Lin Ze's background!
The reason is very simple, there are a lot of pirated copies of Jin Yong's novels, but have you ever seen pirated Mao Xuan? Have you ever seen a pirated version of Deng Xuan? Have you ever seen a pirated version of Jiang Xuan? - Well, Jiang is still on stage, and the collection has not been printed yet.
As for the mainland, the situation is too complicated.
At this time, the mainland is focusing on economic construction, and the employment pressure is extremely high.
These pirated black factories have created economic benefits and jobs for society.
Well, in order to avoid government crackdowns, they will also hand in filial piety......
For all these reasons, the government is not enthusiastic about cracking down on piracy and has basically adopted a blind and blind attitude.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Lin Ze understands this very well, if you do it in a legal way, the patent fees to be paid for those movies, music albums, computer software, etc., are definitely a lot of money.
If nothing else, let's just talk about Microsoft's operating system, Microsoft's monopoly position in the industry, is well known to the world, and China is no exception.
But his profit in China is minimal, because ...... If there is piracy, who still uses the genuine copy?
It is inevitable to pay patent fees for using genuine copies, China is poor, how can there be dollars for Microsoft?
Therefore, in order to not only exempt the patent fee, but also enable the people to use Microsoft's scientific and technological achievements, ahem, China can only take the path of piracy.
As for Microsoft's protests to the government of country Z because of the loss of profits (which is frequent) - the government of country Z has always taken it seriously, and at the same time, various departments pass the buck to each other, which is not practical.
Ahem, this may also be regarded as Chinese characteristics, which is the specialty of the government of country Z, and I believe that the people of China know it.
In fact, is the government of country Z really incapable of cracking down on piracy? This is simply a joke, with ZG's tens of millions of party members (there is one party member for every 20 people), the neighborhood committee system that penetrates into every community, if you really want to crack down on piracy, it shouldn't be too simple!
Therefore, it is not that we cannot do the domestic crackdown on piracy, but that we do not want to do it, and the reason is very simple: the country is poor, the people are also poor, and pirated goods are cheap, can save money, and can also increase employment, so why not do it?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The album is sold very cheaply in the mainland, only 4.5 yuan a piece, although it is still expensive compared with the pirated 10 yuan three, but it is less than five yuan, anyone can afford it, and it is still cheap.
Moreover, He Xiuqiong has already printed 2 million copies, and the backlog is in the warehouse, ready to create a mainland sales record.
She had already prepared and took the lead, but before the pirates could react, the album was fully rolled out and began to be supplied in full force.
However, the development of things was still beyond her expectations, and the two million albums went on sale on the morning of the 16th, and the two million albums began to sell out in the evening of the same day, and she had to contact the manufacturer urgently, and did not hesitate to give up a certain profit to produce overnight.
In order to cope with the competition from pirates that followed, He Xiuqiong is a strong person, and she even pushed the strategy of small profits, and after negotiation with all parties, the price of an album dropped to only 3.5 yuan!
The gross profit of one of its albums is only 2 yuan, and for this 2 yuan, it has to be distributed by the producer, the seller, and the producer! The profit from a single album can be said to be extremely meager.
However, because of this, it had a big impact on the pirates, whose sales continued to surge over the next two days, and at the same time, she contacted more producers.
Until the 19th, He Xiuqiong's Zhongjie Company announced that the sales of Lin Xinru's first EP album "Another Face Xinru" reached an unprecedented 6.3 million copies, and it is still growing!
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The news was sent out, which shocked the entire industry.
In just three days, it created sales of 6.3 million copies, and the rally has not stopped, which has shocked all kinds of music producers and singers.
The industry is turbulent, and entertainment media reporters are even more excited.
Lin Ze and Lin Xin were not in the mainland at this time, so they rushed to interview other musicians.
For example, the Yuquan group, which released its first album this year and achieved millions of sales, such as Gao Xiaosong, who has created many famous singers, such as Xiao Ke, Wang Feng and so on.
Lin Ze's qualifications in the industry are still very shallow, but with this absolute strength, everyone who was interviewed was amazed, saying that he had created a milestone.
It is worth noting that whether it is the singer or the music producer's interview answers, they all invariably attribute the achievements of the album to Lin Ze! Lin Xinru's singing was only brought by a polite sentence.
In the face of an interview, an old expert in the industry said bluntly: "Each of the five songs in the album "Another Face" is a complete classic, no matter who sings it, the album will be a big hit;
And if five people each sing a song, five singers will be selected at the same time.
I can say that the results of this album were created by Lin Ze alone, and his talent is admirable to me!
And what makes me even more excited is that he is only 19 years old now! He is the musician in China who has the most hope of winning a place in the world music scene!! ”
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Although Lin Ze's ability has once again been unanimously recognized by the industry, on the album, he played the role of a behind-the-scenes person, and Lin Xinru was the focus of the foreground.
When the album was a big hit, and when the song sounded on the streets, her number of fans also skyrocketed, and the bids for her advertisements and endorsements also increased sharply, and she has faintly surpassed Zhao Ling!
However, in the mainland, the news that has attracted the most attention in the past few days is not this matter.
But in just three days, ZG mobilized more than 10 million people to carry out a campaign-style action of "finding rare blood types and saving Taiwan compatriots"!
In this sudden action, Chairman J, Vice Chairman H, Prime Minister Z, and Vice Prime Minister W formed a temporary leading group, with Chairman J as the group leader and the overall commander of the operation.
As of 24 o'clock on the night of the 18th, members of the leading group appeared in person and held a press conference, and reporters from all over the country gathered at the meeting.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
In this sudden operation, which lasted only 72 hours from 0:00 on the 16th to 24:00 on the 18th, ZG suddenly showed the world his terrible ability to organize and mobilize and coordinate!
The Washington Post-Washington Post said: "The government of country Z has organized tens of millions of people in an orderly manner in just three days, which is something that our government has completely failed to do. ”
The British "Times" said: "...... In this incident, we can clearly see the terrible national defense mobilization capability of country Z. ”
Russia's "Russian Gazeta" said with a little regret: "...... We could have done that in the former Soviet Union, or we could have done better, but now that the former Soviet Union has collapsed, we can't go back to the past. ”
The domestic media even reported it extensively, and one of them was the hottest.
On the afternoon of the 16th, when inspecting the Beijing General Hospital of the People's Liberation Army, on the grounds that "party members and cadres should play a leading role, and I am the biggest leader", he suddenly rolled up his sleeves for a blood test, and for a while he was accompanied by reporters, so he decisively made headlines in foreign newspapers......
At the press conference.
Chairman J was wearing the navy blue tunic he wore at the military parade on the 50th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, with a big back combed and shiny oil, still wearing his black-rimmed large-rimmed glasses, and his face was full of smiles that could not be concealed.
"It was a perfect operation!" He couldn't help laughing.
He enjoys being in the spotlight, especially on the international stage, so he acted as a model for the launch and spokesperson.
