Chapter 444: Scheduled
Under the angry scolding of a group of fans, the staff of Universal Music finally restored the official website.
An album with a delicate cover is placed on it, Li Lin carries a guitar on his back, stands in front of the drums, listens attentively, and on the side, beating notes wrap around him, forming a halo effect.
The big M. Happy is written on the far right, as if it has magical powers, and it attracts fans in the blink of an eye.
The moment they saw it, these fans were thrilled.
"It's "M. Happy", Li Lin's new album "M. Happy", I finally waited." A fan was so excited that he couldn't help himself.
"Hurry up and book, lest you wait for the official website to crash."
"Yes, hurry up and book, I heard that the first batch of albums is only 100,000 pre-orders, and it will be too late if you don't grab it."
"What are you doing in a daze, hurry up!"
The classmates on the side hurriedly said.
They are all fans of Li Lin, and they have liked Li Lin since "Opera 2", and after a series of things, their love for Li Lin has never decreased.
"Don't worry, there are 100,000 of them, and it's only been a long time."
The fan was talking slowly, while operating the mouse, moving the cursor in the computer to it, and in an instant, a price popped up, $33.
"It's a bit expensive."
He frowned, the price of an album in the United States is about $20 to $40, and this price will be priced according to the popularity of the singer itself and the quality of the album.
$33 is an absolutely exorbitant price tag for a newcomer who has just debuted in the United States.
It can also be seen from this that Universal Records' evaluation of Li Lin.
"Expensive wool. If you can't buy it, are you responsible? β
"That's it. It's only $33, so don't talk nonsense and buy it. β
"Danny, hurry up, don't waste time, I'm still waiting to show off!"
"Well, since you said so, let's buy it!" Danny shrugged his shoulders in a rogue manner. Then move your mouse over the purchase page and click Buy.
Swish!
The website pops up with the words "The sale has ended".
"Impossible."
He screamed.
It's over!
He had already foreseen his tragic fate, and his little friends who were delayed by him would never let him go. He'd have to find a way to escape.
Thinking of him, he quietly withdrew his hand from the table, ready to run away at any moment.
"How could the sale end so quickly."
"That's 100,000 album reservations."
"It can't be Universal Records!"
His classmates screamed one by one.
They were ready to order dozens of tickets, but it was delayed for a while, and the sale actually ended. It's incredible, isn't it?
Subsequently. Angry voices rang out one after another, "Danny, it's all your fault." β
"You're looking for death."
"Can you afford to delay us?"
"Don't."
Not only them, but also many people in distant China suffered the same thing as him.
"To complain, I kept the album reservation for 6 hours, and I actually got stuck when I was booking. And then it's sold out, you're kidding me! β
Paste in the bar. A fan of Li Lin took a picture of the end of the sale and said indignantly in Li Lin's post bar: "Is Li Lin worthy of my long wait?" β
"Wash and sleep, brother."
The following person replied: "How popular Li Lin is in the United States, you can see the domestic news, it is normal for the first batch of 100,000 albums to be sold out, and it is normal to log on to overseas websites and not be able to grab them. β
Next to the words, there is also a picture of a proud Ahri.
"Seeking to acquire the reservation qualification of "M. Happy", I will buy it for 200."
I'm a local tyrant replied below.
"200 Huaxia coins? It's really funny, the album "M. Happy" sold for $33 in North America, which is more than 200 Huaxia coins, and you still pay 200 Huaxia coins to buy it? It's just a joke. β
Immediately, some people ridiculed me for being a local tyrant.
"It's better to be funny than the local tyrant."
"Goodbye to the local tyrants, downstairs formation."
"Wow, how do I stay in formation?"
"It's all upstairs, and it's all the formation."
"Who said that?"
I am a local tyrant Seeing so many people scolding themselves for being funny, his face immediately became a little unbearable, and he retorted: "Who said that, who said that I was talking about Huaxia coins?" I'm talking about the dollar. β
"$200 to get the reservation for "M. Happy", and all the jokes upstairs were dismissed for me."
As soon as the price of $200 came out, it immediately shocked a large number of fans who posted it.
"Wow, $200, generous."
"A local tyrant is a local tyrant, and as soon as he makes a move, it is 1,600 Huaxia coins, which is equivalent to a month's salary of others."
At the current exchange rate, $200 is equivalent to 1,600 Huaxia dollars, which is almost equivalent to a month's salary for an ordinary waiter or temporary worker.
Throwing out so much money for the sake of an album reservation qualification, isn't it a local tyrant?
Only a local tyrant would be so capricious and look at money as money.
"Money is not a problem, qualifications are a problem, who will sell me qualifications!"
"Me."
"Me."
"I'll sell it."
They all saw very clearly that this qualification was only shipped on the same day, in addition to the qualification, they could also go to the record store to buy it, earn $200 for $33, and then go to the record store to grab the album, which is equivalent to buying the album without spending a penny, and then making $167, a proper good business.
Syllable!
In a villa, a girl with a delicate face slapped the table angrily, "I have asked you to guard the computer since this morning, and in order to ensure that there is no delay, I specially opened the international optical fiber for you." As a result, you sued me for not grabbing it? β
She was almost.
Li Lin's "M. Happy" She has been looking forward to it for a long time, but there are some things this morning, so she asked her maid at home to help rush it out. I thought that so many people would be able to grab it with the opening of international optical fiber.
When she came home, her maid told her that she hadn't grabbed it.
"It's mainly a bit stuck."
One aunt said: "I suddenly got stuck when I was buying, and I found that the sale was sold out. β
"Forget it."
The girl with a delicate face waved her hand, "I'll go online to buy a qualification at a high price." β
"Damn, if it weren't for the fact that the album "M. Happy" hadn't been distributed to China, I still needed to snap it up?"
Before. There was no time when people from the record store sent the goods as soon as they arrived, but the album "M. Happy" was only sold in the United States for the time being, and Huaxia did not distribute it at all.
After the girl with a delicate face leaves. The servants, who had not spoken, immediately began to talk one by one.
"It's okay, it's been fooled, if you let the young lady know that you went to play mahjong and forgot what she ordered, I would have to reprimand you."
"What the hell is that "M. Happy"? Why does the young lady like it so much. Also let's go buy. β
"I heard that it was a star album. Today's young people, none of them regard money as money, dozens of dollars, and hundreds of dollars when converted into Chinese coins. β
"It sold out in just a few minutes."
The executives of Universal Music smiled from ear to ear, and several executives even flushed, "100,000 albums are ordered, and they are empty in just a few minutes." β
"It's just like this for the king and queen to release a new record!"
"Yes, Maria's sales of 500,000 copies in an hour is a miracle. And if Li Lin's is allowed to buy, maybe he can also create a miracle like zΓ o. β
"It's unimaginable. It is simply appalling that the fame that has been hyped can support such a result. β
"Appalling? According to the number jΓΉ, in addition to us in the United States, the majority of people who are qualified to buy this album are Asians, and some of them are also purchased in Europe, and it can be seen from here that Li Lin's popularity is not limited to the United States, and everyone should not forget that before coming to the United States, he has already made a name for himself in Asia, and I am not surprised at all to have this kind of achievement. β
"yes, he's Asia's superstar."
"Ladies and gentlemen."
A middle-aged woman in professional attire knocked on the table, "Since Li Lin's "M. Happy" is so popular, then all the work will be carried out in the same way as Maria. β
"Compare Maria? Is this taking him too seriously? Another person questioned.
"yes, who is Maria? Our American diva, fans have spread to Europe, and soon another international superstar was born, what is Li Lin? He's just a newcomer, and even if he's very popular now, he's crooked, and he's not as good as Maria. β
"And don't forget that his contract with us is only a contract in Europe and the United States, in addition to us, there are also Gold Medal Records, Ibex Group, and Columbia Arts Management Group participating in it, and we have invested a lot of resources, and the returns we have achieved are not equal."
Comparing Maria means that the resources invested in Li Lin's "M. Happy" album are the same as those invested in Maria's album.
However, as soon as she mentioned yì came out, she was questioned.
The reason is very simple, Li Lin is a newcomer, and Li Lin only has part of the contract in the hands of Universal Music.
In the United States, there are countless singers who suddenly shine and then fall into darkness like shooting stars, and a meteor shower is staged almost every year.
No one can guarantee whether Li Lin is one of the members of the meteor shower.
Moreover, Li Lin's contract is not completely in the hands of Universal Music, and even after they invest resources to create Li Lin, they will not be able to enjoy complete benefits.
So there are many people who oppose it.
"Rat-eyed."
The middle-aged woman snorted coldly, "Don't forget jΓ¬, the more resources we invest in him, the more returns will be in the future, as for the distribution of benefits, are you still not satisfied after having resource feedback and income commission?" β
"We're satisfied, but the board won't be satisfied, they'll just look at the financial statements." A middle-aged man with a shiny comb smiled bitterly, "The financial staff will not consider our hardships. β
"Compared to the invisible and intangible things like resources, they only look at the actual revenue and expenditure." (To be continued......)
