Chapter 20: Sales Issues

The physical release date of Xu Chenjun's album has arrived as scheduled, and the hot sales have made the employees of Universal Company Records work overtime to produce the album. Universal Music was very well prepared this time, even Michael Jackson's treatment was not enough, but it turned out that it was still not enough.

This physical album is divided into three grades, and the most common one is, of course, the kind that only has album discs. The second level is a limited edition poster of Xu Chenjun as a gift. At the top is the only 1,000 autographs + posters in the world. This kind of marketing strategy is used very well, and Universal is about to make money this time. Of course, as a major shareholder and album singer, producer, composer, and lyricist, Xu Chenjun's income is even better.

Of course, he doesn't care about the amount of money, he only cares about the reaction of the market, because this is a strong proof of his strength. Those who didn't think well of him are now obediently shutting their mouths.

The day after the album was released, the sales figures were told. The number of physical store sales in the United States was 800,000, 230,000 in the United Kingdom, and 670,000 in France, Italy, and the Netherlands. And it's just the first day of release. Although a quarter of these more than 1.7 million people may be Xu Chenjun's fans, it also proves his super popularity!

Because the album contains three Chinese songs, one Japanese song and one Korean song, sales in Asia are also very popular, but the specific number has not yet been counted.

A month after the album was released, in early December......

Since the album was released, Xu Chenjun's songs have been directly airborne on the American Billboard billboard, ten songs, six of which dominate the top ten, and the remaining four are also in the top 20. Such a terrifying result simply shocked the world, and the song Boyfriend has been dominating the top of the chart for two weeks before being squeezed down, becoming YouBeLongwithMe, YouBeLongwith

ME has been dominating for two weeks again, and the momentum is extremely ferocious.

In Asia, Xu Chenjun's fireworks are easy to cold, and the three Chinese songs of Me and Father have reached the level of rotten streets, and the album sales are also the most terrifying. 6.98 million, when the market is almost saturated, the statistics are amazing. This data directly broke 10 million, and there is only one person in Asia who can break 10 million in one album.

The official statistics are as follows:

China: 6,989,856

Japan: 1,061,467

South Korea: 862,945

……

Asia Total: 11,982,682

…………………………………………

United States: 8,896,078

United Kingdom: 2,684,167

……

Europe, America and Africa total: 14,698,692

The rest of the region combined with a total of more than 30 million sales.

Although it is not at all comparable to Michael Jackson's terrible data of hundreds of millions of dollars per album. But in this age of advanced information, this data is close to Michael's myth. After all, there are still many people who don't want to spend money to buy albums, so they download and listen to them directly on the Internet, and this number of downloads is even more amazing, directly breaking 300 million.

The position of the number one album sales of the year has been secured.

The release of this album alone made Xu Chenjun, who took advantage of the 82 shares with Universal Company, earn 500 million US dollars, not counting other peripheral products, and the income from music downloads also exceeded 100 million yuan, which is worthy of the name of the king of gold in the record industry. Simply incredible sales results.

Now Xu Chenjun's songs are playing everywhere in the streets and alleys of Europe and the United States.

Xu Chenjun, who was supposed to be proud of the spring breeze, returned home and was depressed to find that the irresponsible parents had gone out to travel, and there was no one at home......

In desperation, he hurriedly bought a ticket and went to South Korea early, after all, he had more friends over there.

Girls' Generation Dorm Middle......

The nine girls just finished their trip today and will go to the dormitory, because their GEE composer and lyricist have the words Jason Xu Chenjun, under the vigorous publicity of ** company, GEE has also become extremely popular in various countries. In addition, Girls' Generation has been constantly hitting the charts, and now it has won the championship in the music bank and popular songs for 3 consecutive weeks, because the highest popularity ballad is only three consecutive championships, so the charting activities after Girls' Generation will always be carried out in KBS's music bank.

Girls' Generation, whose popularity has rebounded rapidly, sold 47,000 copies on the Hanteo chart in the first week, far surpassing the original sales champion Lee Hyo-ri. Sales in Asia have also risen sharply, and three weeks later, GEE has sold more than 400,000 copies in South Korea. It also sold nearly 300,000 in China and other regions, but in Europe and the United States, it is only mentioned, and not many albums are purchased. In the end, the album sold about 740,000 copies.

After winning the music bank championship again, Girls' Generation returned to the dormitory in an extremely high mood.

"Great! Four times in a row! It's going to be our girlhood from now on, hahaha. Lin Dese, who is known as second only to Xu Dese, stood on the sofa and announced her feelings.

Kim Taeyeon glanced at Lin Yuna with disdain, and said domineeringly: "If this momentum continues, it will not be a problem to win the championship for another ten weeks!" ”

"That's it, we're girls!" Lee Soon-gyu is also echoing it over and over again.

"Ernie, pride is wrong. And if there is no Chenjun OPPA, we do not have this result, we must be humble to get better results, which we must learn from Chenjun OPPA. Xu Xian spoke as Xu Chenjun's chief supporter.

"Cut, that guy is modest? That little bit of achievement is there, even better than Yun'er. ”

"Sicaoni, how can you say that OPPA? OPPA told me that how much ability comes how much responsibility, although Chen Jun OPPA seems to be more frivolous, but his achievements are undeniable. Xu Xian defended Xu Chenjun very seriously. Jessica was speechless with anger, in her heart, Xu Chenjun was the same Xu Dese even if he had achievements.

"Sika, it's fruitless for you to discuss this with Xiaoxian, she has changed her idol from Ban Ki-moon to Xu Chenjun."

"......" Xu Xian suddenly had nothing to say, and he didn't know how to explain it to Xu Chenjun.

Jin Xiaoyuan looked at the clock, smiled and took the TV remote control, "Why are you discussing this, look at the TV, Girls' Generation has won four consecutive crowns!" It's definitely on the entertainment news! Let those anti-criminals take a good look at our results. ”

As he spoke, he turned on the TV, and now it was entertainment news time, but it was not what they expected......

The sweet-looking announcer on the TV station introduced not them, but Xu Chenjun

"Jason, a Chinese-American 07 Academy Award winner and newcomer, has achieved the biggest sales miracle in '05 years, with his debut album sales reaching 25 million and a world record of 680 million downloads. The MV has been viewed nearly 800 million times on YouTube so far, a record high in YouTube's history, and has nearly one million sales even in its own country, which is a veritable sales champion! Universal revealed that Xu Chenjun's revenue from this album and peripheral industries is no less than 1 billion US dollars, which is the first place on this year's Forbes global superstar list......"

After reading this news, in addition to the sound of the TV in the dormitory of my youth, only the sound of breathing remained.

Nine people and sixteen eyes stared at the data on the TV, only Xu Xian was calmer, but the look of adoration in her eyes was even worse than before.

After broadcasting Xu Chenjun's news, it was their turn......

"The following is an introduction to this week's domestic entertainment news, after Girls' Generation experienced the Black Sea incident, the mini album GEE released now has a total sales of 740,000 in the world, and the music bank has won the championship four times in a row, winning the title of national group in one fell swoop......"

Originally, this achievement was very gratifying, but compared with Xu Chenjun's results, it was just a day and a place.
