Chapter 188: Breaking Records and Addressing Foreign Goods
Zhao Chen naturally wouldn't think that this piano album of four well-known pianists would only have one million sales, if it was only in the island country, it would be about the same. However, if it is global, there will undoubtedly be a huge deviation, especially in Europe, where the real sales of piano music are the majority.
"Okay, everyone, work hard, record this piano album, and I'll invite everyone to dinner when the recording is finished!"
Zhao Chen didn't make any explanations, but reminded the two recording engineers before starting to prepare again.
For piano albums like this, the main sales are naturally tapes and dVds, and the tapes only need to be done in the studio, and as for the recording of dVds, although they can also be done in the studio, then the people who buy them will undoubtedly not buy it, and they often go to the classical and beautiful halls to record them.
Recording tapes is relatively easy and requires only the player to play skillfully, but if something goes wrong, it needs to be re-recorded. If Zhao Chen is asked to sing, it will undoubtedly need to be recorded many times, but if you just come to play the piano, it will be easy and enjoyable, and the recording will be completed in less than a day, and then you only need to find time to record dVd.
When recording dVds, in addition to the player making no mistakes, you also need to be as elegant as a pianist and wear a black tuxedo or suit.
After more than two years of uninterrupted exercise and adequate nutrition, Zhao Chen's physique can be said to have improved almost perfectly, coupled with his 1.8-meter-tall size and handsome appearance, just these appearance conditions, the recording engineer feels that the dVd sales of piano albums are definitely not bad, at least for those girls who are not deeply involved in the world, it has a strong attraction and makes them pay for it.
The recording of dVd is a lot of trouble. It took more than one strip to get it done, and the rest was left to Being's various technicians for post-production. It will only be sold after that.
Of course, before selling, advertising must be played, even if the chairman of Being Music Company, Nagato Daiyuki, thinks that the quality of the album is the first, and never disdains to use exposure to increase sales, in this case, it is okay to say that it is in the era when computers are not popular, but once computers are popular, there is no advertising, and even singers are not allowed to appear on TV interviews, which is a bit of a problem. For Zhao Chen. Only a combination of the two is king.
So after recording the dVd, Zhao Chen used the commercial advertising techniques of later generations, and the overwhelming advertisements began to spread, whether it was its "Daily News" or various comic publications of Tianxiashe, they were constantly advertising.
Not only that, Zhao Chen also directly used his fame to hold a media conference, and played a few piano pieces at the meeting.
A direct consequence of this: These reporters who came to participate in the media conference were a little puzzled at first, but when Zhao Chen explained that it was to build momentum for the piano album, they inevitably had doubts. When they heard the piano music played by Zhao Chen, they couldn't help but fall into it, and their doubts were swept away. Instead, they were excited to think that this was big news, and they began to think about how to write this report.
As a result, a large number of newspapers, media or TV stations began to promote Zhao Chen's piano album for free. And they are all praised, especially when the TV station plays the piano music played by Zhao Chen during the meeting, and directly directs it in front of the piano album cloth, which is known to everyone in the island country, and a considerable number of island people have made reservations at various sales points.
Perhaps thanks to Zhao Chen's deep fame in the island country. Although the piano music played on the TV station was vague, there were many people in the entire island country who booked it. In addition, after the indiscriminate bombardment of the media, the popularity was very noisy. As a result, the pre-sale reached more than 700,000 on the day before the sale, which was due to the fact that there were fewer sales points in the island country for Being Music Company.
The pre-sale reached more than 700,000 yuan, which directly broke the record of the pre-sale of Being Music Company, and even broke the record of the total sales of a single album.
Generally speaking, with the exception of pre-sales, albums tend to have the highest sales on the first day, and only those albums that are of excellent quality or special will be subject to change.
Zhao Chen's piano album sold more than three days on the first day of the island country, and it achieved a million albums on the first day alone, which is simply a money grab, and many music companies are envious and jealous, and they shout wolf.
It reached a million sales on the first day, which directly prompted most of the newspapers and television stations to sing praises again, which raised the fame of this piano album to a notch again. But the most important thing is the quality of this piano album, like many of the scheduled are actually fans of Zhao Chen himself, and what they watch is actually Zhao Chen's face. It's just that after listening to the piano music inside, I am often attracted by various styles of piano music, and I will naturally recommend it to my friends.
So on the next day, there was a jaw-dropping scene at the sales point selling Zhao Chen's piano album, and the door of each sales point was filled with dense people, these people were mainly young people around 20 years old, most of these people had entered the society and had enough money to buy. The second is the boys and girls, this group is not much less than the youth, most of them have actually read Zhao Chen's comics, and they are recommended to this piano album, so they will raise money to buy it. In addition, there are many middle-aged people in line, and even the elderly can see a few, which is mainly because the origin of the piano is too early, compared to pop songs, many of the elderly now prefer classical music, especially piano music.
As a result, these outlets kept playing the piano music of Zhao Chen's album on a loop to attract more buyers.
This scene of rushing to buy directly prompted the sales of albums at the point of sale to sell quickly, and the boss or manager of the point of sale kept calling the sales department of Being to urge the goods.
Fortunately, Zhao Chen saw the opportunity early, and it was more about the relationship between the quality of this piano album, suppressing the opposition and directly increasing the number of the first batch of albums to two million. Even so, Zhao Chen often urged Being to make more zuò. After all, this is a piano song, which is used in all regions of the world, and unlike pop music, which requires lyrics in various regional languages, even if it cannot be sold in the island country, it can be sold to other regions.
The sales of albums and dVd are relatively easy to count, and they only need to be based on the number of shipments, so Zhao Chen got this sales in the evening, compared to more than 300,000 on the first day, and there was a bottoming out rebound on the second day, and the sales were more than the first day, reaching more than 400,000. As a result, in just two days, the total sales of Zhao Chen's piano albums reached an astonishing 1.5 million.
"Shocked! Is the first local album with two million sales coming out? - "Read the News"
"Terrifying sales, creating a music boom?" - Mainichi Shimbun
"Strongly resist the crazy wealth accumulation behavior of the enemy people!" ——Asahi Shimbun
"Two million may not be the end!" ——Sankei Shimbun......
In the face of amazing sales, whether it is a large-scale newspaper or a small news media, they are continuing to report that Zhao Chen's piano album is so powerful that it is about to break the total sales record of a single album in the island country.
The island's first million-dollar album was created by Inoue Yosui in 1973's album "氷の世界", which initially launched the island's music boom, and the sales of music albums continued to rise, and the number of music albums with sales of one million began to increase, but the highest sales did not reach two million. Judging from the trend of Zhao Chen's piano album, it is simple to break through two million in the island country, and even if it exceeds three million, it is not a small possibility, but it takes time to accumulate.
Zhao Chen's piano album is still a big hit, but the sales have been declining since the third day, but it still managed to break through two million sales on the fifth day, successfully breaking the record of the islanders.
As soon as it was pierced, many media thought that Zhao Chen, a foreigner, had broken the sales record of the islanders, which was simply a "chiluo" naked slap in the face, and at the same time called on the majority of islanders to stop buying and boycott foreign goods.
It's a pity that people always have a rebellious mentality, not to mention that most of the people who buy albums are teenagers around 20 years old, and the appeal of these unscrupulous media has made Zhao Chen's piano album famous again, guiding more island people to buy it, and the sales that originally began to decline increased rapidly, making these media dumbfounded, seeing that the sales are getting closer and closer to three million and can do nothing.
It was also at this time that the famous Being Music Company welcomed a special guest from abroad.
