The "perfect" kick-off ceremony officially kicked off in New York, although Hugo is not the central protagonist, but the collaboration of Jack Nicholson, James L. Brooks, and Helen Hunt still attracted a lot of attention, not to mention that the script was written by Hugo.

At the press conference, reporters bombarded Hugo, obviously everyone was curious about "before sunrise", Hugo once again original script, but also attracted heavyweight cast to join, does this mean that Hugo once again did a good job of screenwriting?

"I hope it's a good script, otherwise Jack and Helen are going to be disappointed." Hugo's answer made everyone at the scene chuckle, "However, whether it is a good story or not depends on James, I hope the audience can like him, otherwise Jack and Helen, two friends who joined me for the sake of friendship, will be miserable by me." ”

Hugo's self-ridicule sparked laughter again, and Jack raised his right hand, pointed two fingers at his eyes, and then pointed at Hugo, as if to say, "I've been watching you all along, if the work really smashes ......", this threatening action made the scene laugh, Hugo even said directly, "I think I should leave, this is not my stage." ”

Haha, Hugo's ingenious interpretation made the audience burst into laughter.

"Hugo, last question, last question." A reporter raised his right hand high, the host glanced at Hugo, and after getting affirmation, he nodded and signaled that the reporter could ask questions, the reporter looked a little angry, and he raised his voice and asked, "Hugo, may I ask if the album 'Storm of Glory' has been the champion for 37 consecutive weeks this week, tying the record of consecutive championships set by 'Trembling' that year, do you have any special feelings?" If 'Tempest' wins again next week, it will break the record again, do you have any special events in place for the band members? ”

Hugo didn't expect this to be the question at all, he turned his head to look at James, Jack and others around him with some embarrassment, and then said into the microphone, "Sorry, today is the press conference of 'Perfect', I only answer questions about this work, and I refuse to respond to other questions." ”

"But ......," the reporter still didn't want to give up, and stood up firmly, and then another reporter next to him stood up directly - not waiting for the host's call, "Hugo, please be sure to answer this question, we have been looking forward to the arrival of the historical moment, do you have any plans to hold a concert tour in the near future?" ”

"Hugo, I'm the official reporter of Billboard magazine, how do you feel about the historical record of Storm?"

"May I ask if Glory to Death is going to celebrate with a celebration feast?"

Looking at the chaos in front of him, more than a quarter of the reporters at the scene actually stood up one after another, which made Hugo even more embarrassed - this is a movie occasion, but there are so many music reporters, but before Hugo can speak, even those film reporters have raised their voices and said, "Hugo, you are about to make history again, do you have any special feelings?" ”

At this time, Jack couldn't help but be the first to laugh, haha clapped his hands and laughed, "Hugo, even I'm curious now, do you have any ideas?" ”

Hugo looked at Jack's old naughty appearance, smiled helplessly, and then said into the microphone, "Sorry, I'm not going to answer any questions about the band and music today." Hugo's words made the scene agitated, and he quickly raised his hand, "But, but tomorrow I will participate in the recording of 'The Tonight Show', and the other members of the Glory to Death will appear, and there will be a small press conference before the recording, so if you have any questions, please ask them again at that time." ”

After saying that, Hugo once again showed an apologetic smile at Jack, James, Helen and others, but it made the crew members laugh.

In fact, before Hugo left for New York, Henry Bloom had already informed every member of Glory to Death the news, and "Storm" is likely to make history, so EMI Records needs them to record a few episodes and give interviews to the media to continue to promote the album.

Hugo originally thought that EMI Records had already notified the media, but he didn't expect that the media reporters couldn't wait at all, and went directly to the "perfect" launch ceremony to grab the news.

In fact, these reporters can't be blamed for being too excited, because the record that "Storm" wants to break this time is enough to make this rock band truly go down in history and become one of the greatest rock bands. Not everyone has the opportunity to witness the birth of history, and not every music lover has the opportunity to witness the resurgence of rock and roll.

In recent music history, there have been 10 titles that have topped the Billboard album charts for more than 20 weeks, the most recent record held by the "Bodyguard" soundtrack, which made Whitney Houston truly famous, and the "West Side Story" soundtrack has held the top spot on the Billboard album charts for 54 weeks - that is, a year - a record that no one has been able to shake since it was set in 1963.

Once upon a time, the closest to the great record of the "West Side Story" movie soundtrack was Michael Jackson's "Thriller". The album is considered the greatest album in the history of modern pop music, and between 1983 and 1984, it won the Billboard title for a total of 37 weeks, ranking second in the history of the number of weeks of the album.

Although there is still an insurmountable gap between 37 weeks and 54 weeks, the album "Thriller" is still the target of countless people, and only five of the ten albums that have been number one for more than 20 weeks have been more than 30 weeks.

In addition to the "West Side Story" soundtrack and "Thriller," the other three albums were Fleetwood. Mac) released his album "Rumours" in 1977 and "South. Pacific)" soundtrack, Harry Bellafonte. Belafonte's 1956 album "Calypso". And all three albums have won the championship for thirty-one weeks.

The huge discrepancy between these numbers is clearly visible, which also means that after more than 20 consecutive weeks, it becomes more and more difficult, not to mention catching up with the "West Side Story" in one go, and even winning the title for one more week at a time. Not to mention the music market that is now blooming.

However, "Storm" has created such a miracle, and the album is not only surrounded by pop, rhythm and blues, and rap; And with a devastating posture, it caused an uproar in the entire North American music market, and completely began to change history.

At the end of 1996, "Storm" ended with eight consecutive weeks of top hits, topping both the year-end album sales chart and the year-end singles sales chart, and also dominating the global music market, writing an incredible myth.

At that time, people began to discuss, what is the chance of "Storm" surpassing "Bathing in the Morning Light" for 13 consecutive weeks? Soon, time gave the answer, and as the Grammys approached, the sales of "Storm" became more and more courageous, easily accumulating the number of weeks of his consecutive championship to thirteen weeks, and after the Grammys to the death victory, ushered in a sales peak, soaring on the Billboard album charts, and could hardly find any competitors.

In fact, "Tempest" barely gave its rivals any chance, and in the troika of the battle of the century, "Stay Now" fell out early, and after quickly losing the third place in the midst of a series of shocks, it had already slipped out of the top 10 by the end of January, and the decline was very obvious.

"Butterfly" also obviously lacked stamina, in the third week of January by the band's "Kingdom of Tragedy" kicked out of the runner-up throne, in the second week of February by the "Prodigal Son Returns to the Gridlock'd" movie soundtrack kicked out of the top three, after that, the U2 band, Lean Lyme, and the Blacksmith Band in the air attacked back and forth, "Butterfly" was more than enough, although Maria was trying her best to promote, but the Grammy fiasco made her lose all confidence, and the album fell out of the top 10 and never returned to the chart.

After the Grammys, the "Storm" competitor completely changed a batch, Christopher Wallace (The. Notorious。 B。 I。 G), Mary Blick, Spice Girls (Spice. Girls), Paul McCartney, and Hanson have made their debuts, but none of them have been able to shake the glorious dynasty to death.

The competitors of the "Storm" can definitely be said to be extremely strong, but in the face of the impact of the opponent, the "Storm" in the first week of March can still burst out of sales of 170,000 in a single week, almost all competitors despair, this is almost an impossible to surpass the number, the always strong sales data let the "Storm" sweep thousands of troops, first easily equaled the "bathing morning light" thirteen weeks of consecutive championship weeks, still stride, The third week of March ushered in its own moment in history: 20 consecutive weeks of topping the Billboard album chart!

Officially on the top 10 list of the longest music history.

The momentum of the "Stormy" Changhong turned the troika of the Battle of the Century into a one-man show, and the fall of Maria and the Oasis Band also made the duel in the second half of last year more and more exciting - after the Battle of the Century and the ultimate showdown, the "Storm" still burst out with endless energy, which is the real king's style. What's even more terrifying is that even the one-man show is still exciting, and after the third week of March, people have begun to count down: when will the sprint for the album "Tempest" stop?

At the "perfect" start-up ceremony, the reporters gave the first hint: it has not stopped so far.
