72_72291 Justin retracted his attention and followed Sally into the record store, where the crowd in front of him almost occupied the entire record store, and it seemed that all of it was densely packed with human heads, and there were no gaps at all. But even so, the spectacular single wall can be faintly seen in the crowd, and the unparalleled visual shock is overwhelming, which makes people jaw-dropping.

At this time, the three shelves on the left, center and right were crowded with people, and their ears were filled with lively discussions, "I want to buy the Oasis Band, Oasis ......", "Maria! Maria! "God, this is a volcano!" Volcano! It's really ...... to be glorious to death", "I like this cover so much", all kinds of sounds continue to echo in my ears, making the entire Taoer record store boil violently like boiling water.

It can be seen that the fans of Glory to Death, Oasis and Maria are still evenly matched.

"Sure enough, it's a glorious to death style! Far beyond my imagination! Sally picked up a sheet of "Young. voloes)" and see that sexually vivid cover.

In fact, in terms of color, the Oasis Band is the most eye-catching; And in terms of eyeball effect, Maria's beautiful figure is unmatched; But the cover of Glory to Death has a powerful force, and the stubborn volcano clearly outlines the personality and spirit of this band, and people can't help but linger on the cover and generate endless curiosity about the whole song.

Only the cover of the single is truly related to the song, showing the essence of the song directly and sharply.

Justin couldn't help but be stunned at this time, looking at the single covers on the shelves, and the depths of his soul began to tremble gently, as if the music of glory to death was slowly flowing on the pencil sketch, writing a beautiful melody, building an independent world, making people indulge in it.

Raising his hand, Justin picked up a single and gently rubbed the texture of the cardboard, as if he could feel that he was communicating with the soul of glory to death, and the response from the depths of his psychology made the conspicuous red spark magnify, magnify, and magnify in his pupils.

From this point alone, Glory to the Death blew up two competitors.

As a pop singer, Maria's singles are still so well known, and Sony Columbia Records is clearly familiar with how this works, and an eye-catching cover can often drive listeners who are not interested in the song itself to buy, which is part of the business strategy; But as a rock band, Oasis did not show the spirit of what they were shouting about, but rather like pop singers eager to replicate the path of success in the mainstream market, if they were willing to devote half of their energy to provoking others and spend it on learning and strings, maybe they would achieve even more glory than they are now.

The first time there is no shadow, the winner is at ease.

"Justin, Justin, let's go check out!" Britney's screaming voice didn't seem incongruous in the noisy record store, and even Justin couldn't hear it clearly.

Raising his head, Justin saw Britney's sparkling eyes, clearly outlining the excitement in her heart; Sally next to her has also been chosen, holding three singles in her hand, holding them tightly in her arms, with "satisfaction" written all over her face, which makes people smile.

"Would you please give way?" A voice behind him interrupted Justin's thoughts, and when he looked back, he saw an enthusiastic fan figure, and he said excitedly, "If you're done shopping, please go to the counter, okay?" I can't wait to hear the single of Glory to Death! ”

Only then did Justin realize that he was on the front line of the battle of the century, and quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Justin was about to leave, but before he could lift his footsteps, he stopped again, and then took five more singles from the shelf, and when he looked back, he saw Britney's puzzled gaze, and he explained, "I'll keep two for myself, and the other four for my teammates as gifts, they'll love it." ”

Then, Justin walked towards the cash register with Britney, Sally, and the others.

A fan standing in front of Justin clutched a thick stack of singles in his arms, all of which were from Oasis, Maria and Glory to Death, but apparently Glory to Death had the most singles, with more than thirty singles in his arms, he could barely see the road ahead, and the mountains of singles were terrifying.

The cash register was moving very quickly, and soon it was the fan's turn, who piled all the singles on the counter and said to the staff with a smile, "It's a carnival day for our class." The fan looks like a high school student, and it's estimated that their entire class is joining the battle of the century today.

Justin, who was standing in the back, couldn't help but look back at Britney, Sally and the others, and everyone smiled knowingly.

Fans like the boy in front of him are everywhere in the United States and the United Kingdom, from students to workers, from twelve-year-olds to forty-five-year-old women, from impoverished cleaners to wealthy upper classes, from avid music lovers to onlookers...... This battle of the century has mobilized everyone's enthusiasm, and almost everyone can't wait to show their enthusiasm.

In order to cope with the frenzy of today's battle of the century, Taoer Records has prepared 20,000 copies of inventory, but now it is just noon, and the "Young Volcano" of Glory to Death has already bought 4,000 copies, and there is no need to wait for the store to close tomorrow, and the "Young Volcano" will be completely sold out.

You know, that's just the performance of a record store in Los Angeles!

Oasis and Maria's singles, while just as crazy as they were, have fallen behind in the first round of the Glory to Death, and Oasis' "Do You Know What I Mean" has sold out more than 3,300 copies on Hollywood Avenue at Taoer Records, and their stock of 20,000 copies is estimated to be sold out tomorrow - the day after tomorrow at the latest; Not to be outdone, Maria's "sweetheart" sold more than 3,200 copies, suggesting that this afternoon's sales frenzy would determine the winner of the first day of the battle of the century.

Whoever has more explosiveness and durability is better will be able to have the last laugh.

Tao'er Records could not withstand the strong onslaught, and took the lead in asking the record companies of the three groups of singers to restock, but they encountered great difficulties, because even Tao'er Records' own branches were competing within Zài, and the New York Century Square branch had already preemptively placed its first orders - 20,000 copies of Glory to Death, 20,000 copies of Maria, and 18,000 copies of the Oasis Band; Not to mention the other competitors, the six major cities of New York, Chicago, Houston, Philadelphia, Seattle and Los Angeles are already feeling the pressure of the frenzy by the time noon arrives.

In fact, for Taoer Records, they have a total of 60,000 copies in stock, which is almost the sales of a record store in a week before, and they originally thought that even if the battle of the century is crazy, 60,000 copies of inventory will be enough to cope with the heat wave in the first week. But in fact, only halfway through the first day, the inventory in the warehouse is already disappearing at a visible rate, and the two staff members responsible for loading a shelf are already too busy, often a box of singles has just been opened, and the fans who have rushed to buy it are gone.

It's a terrifying scene.

The same can be said of the UK, where the world's most famous HMV record store – which once saw the Beatles and recommended them to record labels, and has nearly 300 outlets around the world, making it the most successful record store in the world – is located on Oxford Street in London. street) today ushered in the first frenzied crowd in its 75-year history.

Neither the enthusiasm of the Beatles at their peak nor the madness of last year's British rock 'n' roll war could compare to today's spectacular.

In just one morning, three hours from nine to twelve o'clock to be exact, the Oxford Street branch of HMV Records sold 15,000 copies of the stock frantically, 99 percent of which were sold by the triumvirate members of the Battle of the Century. Maria, on the other hand, with her rich heritage, handed over more than 5,100 tickets, followed by a very narrow margin, and could overtake the Oasis Band at any time.

Relatively speaking, the audience of Glory to Death in the UK is constrained, but even so, the sales of more than 4,000 copies are incredible for Glory to Death, who has never officially arrived in the UK to promote - they have not been left behind by the band Oasis in one breath.

Fifteen thousand copies were sold in three hours, which was the fastest selling morning in the history of HMV records, and even a monument that could not be broken for a long time after Zào.

As of noon on September 23 -- the Battle of the Century has sold more than a million singles worldwide, according to local time calculations everywhere, which is not only a miracle in the music market, but also an unprecedented sales frenzy; At the same time, it is also a miracle in the history of music, allowing people to see a wave of buying that is even crazier and hotter and more exuberant than Woodstock.

If this trend continues, it is foreseeable that Glory to Death, Oasis and Maria will have a win-win situation - all three have achieved sales breakthroughs, but will things really go this way? Even if it is really a win-win situation, then there will be a winner between the three, and who will have the last laugh in this fierce competition on thin ice? If not, who will be the first to fall behind, who will have the last laugh, and who will be able to dominate in the end?
