Chapter 542: Unprecedented Sales
Japan is not a big place, but there are many places to play. ▲∴
In addition to the various places of interest, the natural scenery is also very attractive.
Han Jin accompanied Wang Jixian for seven days and walked around Japan, such as Mt. Fuji, Tottori Sand Dunes, Muroto Chong, Ise Jingu, etc., all of which went to play.
During these seven days, the two got tired of being together every day and enjoyed the time they had not seen for a long time.
Wang Jixian was especially happy, in these seven days, Han Jin was completely his own, and there would be no other woman to share with him.
But one thing that made her embarrassed was that Han Jin was too strong, and it was always difficult for her to accept Jun's grace. So every night, it's the hardest time for her.
do, I can't stand it; If you don't do it, Han Jin can't stand it.
At this point, she wished that someone would replace her.
At the end of a week's trip, Han Jin returned to Tokyo with Wang.
At this moment, his album has been recorded, and one million copies have been recorded, showing Sony Records' confidence in Han Jin.
You must know that even if he is the most popular singer in Japan, he will not have more than 500,000 albums. Han Jin was twice as much as them.
With the recording of the album, the publicity work also began.
Sony Records specially spent 50 million yen in publicity money to build momentum for Han Jin, television, radio, newspapers, magazines, subways, bus stops, record stores, retail stores, ...... It is overwhelming, and it is known as 360 degrees without dead ends.
Han Jin's popularity in Japan is already extremely high, coupled with the promotion of Sony Records, which makes this album even more hyped before it works. The batch order volume reached a staggering 600,000 copies, and the sales volume of double platinum had already exceeded before it could be completed.
On the day the album was officially sold, there was also a long queue in front of the Japanese record store.
Although it is now possible to order in advance. But many fans still hope to buy Han Jin's album as soon as possible, so they rush here late at night to queue up, and wait for the record store to open the next day.
Such a grand occasion is rare in the Japanese music scene, and even the media have rushed to report on this incident.
On the day the album was released, a million records were sold out. This included orders for 600,000 copies, while the other 400,000 were sold entirely through the Guò record store.
This sales once again set a record for record sales in Japan, leaving countless musicians stunned.
In fact, if it weren't for the fact that Sony Records prepared too little, today's sales would likely exceed 1.2 million copies.
Now, Sony Records is annoyed that it didn't make much preparations, and on the other hand, it urges the record factory to seize the time to record and strive to resume supply as soon as possible.
On the day the album was sold, Han Jin also started a promotional journey. TV stations, radio stations, fan clubs, handshake parties, variety shows, etc., hype up for their own records.
With his current popularity in Japan, he can be on any show he wants. Even those shows have pre-determined guests. But for the sake of Han Jin, they will all choose to give way. Because he is now the guarantee of ratings, whenever there is a show on him, the ratings will skyrocket.
Han Jin is different from all the singers in Japan now, although he is very popular, he is not taking the cold route.
Japanese artists in the 80s, the bigger the brand, the more cold the route they take, as if Ken Takakura, Tomokazu Miura, Hideki Nishijo, etc., are all meticulous. Like a god on high.
Because of this, they are counted on the show for promotion. is generally black-mouthed and black-faced, just like the program team owes them two bags of rice.
The reason why this is so is mainly to maintain the mystery of the artist, the so-called distance produces beauty! It's the same reason that Hollywood's A-list movie stars refuse to advertise. They think that too much contact with the public will detract from their charm.
But Han Jin is different from these high-flying stars, he takes an approachable route. Just like the big boy next door, sunny, warm, welcoming, caring. Always a smile on your face to your fans. Soft-spoken, gentle as a lover.
When you are on the show, you will not have a cold face, but will take the initiative to cooperate with the host, even if you will sacrifice your image to be funny. What is strange is that even so, Han Jin's popularity has risen instead of falling.
Not only did he not annoy the fans, but it made everyone think he was cute and liked him even more. This surprised a group of Japanese artists who are accustomed to the cold route.
It is precisely because Han Jin is not afraid to sacrifice his image, and he can be funny, handsome and cute, which greatly increases the watchability and interest of his show, and the ratings of every time he appears on the show are popular, making him the darling of major TV stations.
Every time Han Jin appears on the show, the TV station will make a preview one day in advance, so that everyone can stay in front of the TV, so as not to miss a good opportunity to meet Han Jin.
In this way, although the TV station retained a large number of viewers, it also brought a lot of trouble to Han Jin. His itinerary was originally very secret, but because the TV station announced it in advance, Han Jin's itinerary was leaked.
Every time a program is recorded, a large number of fans gather downstairs at the TV station and radio station, waiting to see Han Jin. So every time I go to the show, it is a torment for Han Jin's eardrums.
The piercing screams shook his eardrums, which made Han Jin's hearing almost damaged. Fortunately, he later prepared earplugs for himself, otherwise his two ears might have been scrapped because of the enthusiasm of fans.
Because Han Jin has too many fanatical fans, Sony Records specially sent six additional bodyguards for him in order to protect his safety.
And every time they go in and out of the TV station, for these bodyguards, it is equivalent to facing a battle. It takes the flesh and blood of six people against thousands of enthusiastic fans.
However, Han Jin has strict requirements for them, and he is absolutely not allowed to push fans, let alone hit fans, which adds a lot of difficulty to the work of these bodyguards.
Because these fans are so enthusiastic that they are swarming in, it is difficult to get out of them without some violent measures.
Although many of Han Jin's fans are girls, he may not have too much effort, but thousands of girls have gathered together. That's a lot more powerful.
And girls are generally much crazier than boys, and when they want to see their idols and are turned away by the bodyguards, these girls usually become very irrational.
Pinch with your hands, kick with your feet, scratch with your hands, pull your head. Pulling his pants, even biting with his teeth, and showing off all eighteen kinds of martial arts one by one, these bodyguards are often covered in bruises and bruises by fans, and their bodies are incomplete.
In this regard, Han Jin can only increase the bonus and increase the number of people, but he is still not allowed to do it to the fans, this is his bottom line, and these bodyguards are definitely not allowed to cross over.
Because he knows to hurt a fan. may lose a large number of fans. It seems that the Korean group TVXQ caused an uproar and caused an uproar when the incident of beating a pregnant woman.
In stark contrast, at Liu Dehua's concert, because the security guards pushed the audience, he flew off the stage to protect the fans, which won praise from the public.
Don't take evil as small, don't take good as small.
Han Jin believes in this truth. So even if it's just a fan, he won't offend lightly.
The famous American salesman Joe. Girard summed up the "25o rule" in the business war. He believes that behind every customer, there are about 25o relatives and friends. If you win the favor of a customer, it means that you have earned the favor of 25o people; Conversely, if you offend one customer, it means that you offend 25o customers.
Although Joe. Girard was talking about shopping malls, but Han Jin thought that this law could also be extended to fans. You hit a fan. may offend two hundred and fifty fans; And if these two hundred and fifty fans are radiated again, the number is likely to be unlimited.
On the other hand, if you show kindness to a fan and win her favor, you may win her favor with 250 fans. If it radiates again. There is no limit to this amount.
So even if Han Jin was busy before, he would take the time to write replies to fans, which is the reason.
When an ordinary fan receives his reply, he is likely to become a loyal fan. And a loyal fan may affect the people around him, and add dozens or even hundreds of fans to Han Jin.
He loves his fans so much, which is very different from those artists in Japan who take the cold route, and he is widely welcomed by fans.
Under his promotion, the sales of the album also continued to rise, and the public trust chart dominated the sales championship for three consecutive weeks, and finally stayed on the album sales chart for a year, with a total sales of an astonishing 2.2 million copies. Such an achievement, I dare not say that it is unprecedented, at least it is unprecedented.
Han Jin carried out a total of a week of publicity in Japan, although it only took a week, but the effect achieved was something that other artists could not achieve in a month.
After spending nearly twenty days in Japan, Han Jin then took Wang to Hong Kong. He will only be able to stay in Hong Kong for a few more days this time, because he will soon have to hold a concert in the UK.
Before leaving Japan, Han Jin brought him the songs that Kawasaki Yue wanted.
These songs were written in between his travels, such as on the train, on the bus, in the hotel, using every bit of available time to write.
"Mr. Kawasaki, I've already brought the song you want." Han Jin patted the suitcase in his hand and said.
"Really, that's great, I can't wait." Kawasaki said with a smile.
Han Jin's current songs are very popular and best-selling in the United States, and he has earned a huge fortune for Sony Records, and he has received soft royalties.
Now that Han Jin has a new song on the market, I believe it will usher in another wave of hot sales.
"My songs are ready, are you ready for the money?" Han Jin asked Kawasaki with a smile.
"Don't worry, Han Sang, I have applied for a quota of 30 million US dollars from the headquarters, I believe it should be able to meet your needs." Kawasaki said with a smile.
Han Jin's current advance payment for a song is 500,000 US dollars, which is relatively expensive even in the United States. Of course, this money is actually equivalent to an interest-free loan, and it will be deducted from Han Jin's copyright income in the future.
Han Jin smiled, "I think it may not be enough." With that, he typed in the combination lock and opened the box. I saw that the box was full of songs.
Stacked one after another, they were stacked thickly, about three inches thick, equivalent to the height of ten bundles of hundred-dollar bills.
"Uh......" Kawasaki was scared half to death.
He thought that Han Jin said a lot of songs, at most fifty or sixty, so he specially applied for a quota of 30 million US dollars, thinking that it should be able to meet the needs.
But he didn't expect Han Jin to come up with so many songs in one go, it seems that even if there are not a thousand, at least there must be seven or eight hundred songs. With an upfront payment of $500,000 per song, these songs are worth more than $300 million.
"Goo Dong~" Kawasaki swallowed with difficulty, "Han San, these are all songs you wrote?" ”
Han Jin smiled, "Yes, Mr. Kawasaki can find someone to inspect it, and if it doesn't meet the standard, I can not charge a single advance payment." ”
Kawasaki nodded with difficulty, this matter is too outrageous, he has to report to the headquarters. (To be continued!)
