Chapter 308: Finally got Lu Qin
Even Hongyan didn't expect that the future of "Little Bird" would be so fierce, the sales championship in December was won by them with all their hard work, but the championship in January was completely a surprise for them. Although after a few days in Zuihou, Luo Haichao saw that "Little Bird" had the hope of winning the championship, and swept the sales of "Little Bird", but "Little Bird" actually sold more than 2.5 million copies in the next month, and it is still the undisputed champion!
Such hot sales also made Hongyan Records and Yun Shijie make a lot of money, of course, this also brought Xu Nuo himself more than one million yuan of after-tax income. This time, Xu Nuo's family went to the United States to seek medical treatment, which was the travel and medical expenses paid by Xu Nuo.
It wasn't until February that the sales boom of "Little Bird" gradually subsided, but it still ranked in the top five of the sales list with more than 50,000 copies per day.
Hongyan Records took advantage of the bull momentum of "Little Bird" to quickly prepare Zhai Xiaofeng's "Mandarin Duck Butterfly Dream" album, ready to be released on March 1. At present, Hongyan's propaganda focus has shifted from "Little Bird" to their own pillar Zhai Xiaofeng.
However, Zhai Xiaofeng's "Mandarin Duck Butterfly Dream" is played on the label of Yun Shijie, because the lyrics and arrangements of all the songs on this album are all handled by Du Xinghe.
It only took Du Xinghe a week to build the core content of this album, and it was done so quickly not because he didn't care, but because he copied the songs in Huang An's "New Mandarin Duck Butterfly Dream" in the previous plane, which was really simple for him.
He has a clear memory bank in his head, and he himself has superb musical attainments and cultivation. Reproducing an album is as easy for him as burning a CD with a computer recorder.
However, this time Du Xinghe did not completely reproduce Huang An's "New Mandarin Duck Butterfly Dream", and he kept several songs of the higher level in it.
For example, "Accompany You to the End of the World", which sounds free and calm, high-spirited, and rare chivalrous style;
and "Love Farewell", which has the same effect as "New Mandarin Duck Butterfly Dream", which is also bittersweet and presents the oriental fatalistic concept of love and hate;
There are also several other poems that also have the characteristics of the Mandarin Duck and Butterfly literary plots, such as "Between Love and Like", "Ancient Tears" and "The Light of the Moon in Front of the Bed" and so on.
He kept all these songs with an obvious neoclassical style, but he canceled "You Are Good or Bad", which was not very compatible, and instead added a more classic "Love Jiangshan and Love Beauty".
This song "Love Jiangshan and Love Beauty More" was bought by Chen Hua earlier, and was the theme song of the costume TV series "Tang Fengyun", and its selected lead singer. It was Zhai Xiaofeng himself.
This song has also become popular recently. Du Xinghe chose this song as the second title song of the album, or even a hidden version of the more potential title song, which can better ensure the hot sale of Zhai Xiaofeng's album.
Although Zhai Xiaofeng is not Yun Shijie's contracted singer, Zhai Xiaofeng's "Mandarin Duck Butterfly Dream". The brand name is YSJ-00002. This is Yun Shijie (YSJ)'s second album after his transformation. It is also the first official production of a complete album, which is of considerable significance, and Du Xinghe is very concerned about the production of this album.
"Little Bird" has sold nearly 7 million copies in less than three months. has made a good start to Yun Shijie's transformation, this second album, Du Xinghe expects to sell at least 10 million copies, which is worthy of Yun Shijie's golden signboard.
Because "Little Bird" is a single album, the wholesale price is only 10 yuan, so Yun Shijie gets 20% of the net income from the "Little Bird" album, which is only two yuan.
"Mandarin Duck Butterfly Dream" is different, this album is also produced by Yun Shijie, Yun Shijie wants to share 20% of the royalty income, the price of this album is 50 yuan on the upper edge of the ordinary album, the wholesale price is 35 yuan, and Yun Shijie will get 7 royalties from this album.
If this album sells 10 million copies within a year, Yun Shijie will earn more than 70 million yuan! And that's not even counting the other derivative gains.
If it can sell out, this album will be able to make the debt-ridden Yun Shijie turn over and become a landlord, and he no longer has to pick his fingers to live.
Du Xinghe is quite looking forward to the first release of "Mandarin Duck Butterfly Dream" on March 1, according to the current situation, Hongyan has done a very fierce propaganda offensive for Zhai Xiaofeng, and he has not released an album yet, the godson of the director of China Television has flown to more than 30 cities across the country to do publicity.
It is conservatively estimated that China Television has spent more than 8 million yuan on Zhai Xiaofeng's album for pre-publicity, which greatly guarantees the best-selling of this album nationwide.
This will most likely be another album that can compete for the top spot in monthly sales, because the song "Mandarin Duck Butterfly Dream" has already topped the song charts in most regions except Fuwan, and in some cities, the song has already topped the charts, which can be described as a sharp edge!
In order to avoid its edge, some popular singers have postponed the release of the album and try not to release a new album in the first week of March, so as not to collide with the popular album "Mandarin Duck Butterfly Dream".
Of course, there are also those who don't believe in evil and are not convinced, such as Yun Shijie's number one enemy - Era, this record predator who likes to release albums on the first day of the month, wants to release a new album "First Snow" to their red-card singer Fan Jingru on March 1.
It's a very competitive album.
Fan Jingru, known as the queen of love songs, prepared for a whole year before launching this "First Snow" album. It is rumored that in order to create this album, nearly 30 million production costs were invested, and the publicity and distribution skills were also 10 million, and they wanted to use the "First Snow" album to push Fan Jingru to a new singing peak.
Previously, Fan Jingru's record had the highest annual sales of 14 million copies, which was her last record "Quiet Missing".
This "First Snow", the era strives to hit the benchmark sales of 15 million copies of a single queen in a single year, and push Fan Jingru to the throne of a real diva.
In addition to "First Snow", in the new album released in early March. Zhai Xiaofeng also has a very strong opponent, that is, Chen Huilun, the queen of national entertainment!
The fashion master, the new album originally released after the Spring Festival, was postponed due to some special reasons, and is now scheduled to be released in early March.
Compared with Fan Jingru, Chen Huilun's comprehensive strength is slightly worse, but relying on the super publicity and distribution ability of National Entertainment, as well as the huge popularity accumulated by Chen Huilun's intensive release of the previous few albums, she chose to release the album in the off-season of the record in March, where there is no super male singer to release a new album, and she is obviously going to the monthly sales champion.
Du Xinghe at last year's Huayi show. I have heard the title song of Chen Huilun's new album "The Price of Wrong Love". Like most of the music produced by National Entertainment. This is also a work pulled out of the industrial assembly line, with strong pop elements, and it will definitely be popular. But to catch fire, you also need to look at fortune.
Anyway, it's Du Xinghe's feeling. Chen Huilun's "The Price of Wrong Love" can't sell Fan Jingru's "First Snow". At least professionals can taste it. The production level of "First Snow" is more than one grade higher than that of "The Price of Wrong Love".
This can be seen from the ranking of the most professional and representative Fuwan Music Channel's "Chinese Song List", this week "First Snow" has successfully topped the "Chinese Song List", but "The Price of Wrong Love" is still outside the top five. It's not even as high as Xu Nuo's "Little Bird", which ranked sixth.
Although the results are not very good, the propaganda offensive of Guoyu's super explosive power and wide coverage is still very objective in terms of increasing record sales.
Other companies sell 1 million records and give them to Guoyu to promote, and they can definitely sell more than 1.3 million copies, and they have this kind of publicity ability that at least adds more than 30% of record sales.
If Guoyu ruthlessly promotes Chen Huilun, the sales of Chen Huilun's "The Price of Wrong Love" are likely to be very amazing.
In addition to these two queens, in the Chinese music scene in early March, there were no other singers who were too strong to release albums, especially no first-line male singers released albums, which is very good news for Zhai Xiaofeng's new album.
The Chinese music scene, like the Chinese film industry, has at least twice as much appeal, box office, and record sales as male stars. The diva among female singers is just a line when compared to male singers. So although he has been hit by two divas, Zhai Xiaofeng is still very hopeful of rushing to the monthly sales championship.
If Hongyan Records can win the best-selling championship for three months in four consecutive months starting from December last year (the first two months of which have been won by Xu Nuo), Hongyan's status in the record distribution industry will be qualitatively improved. Luo Haichao and their side are already fighting and preparing to kill the Quartet.
Yun Shijie doesn't need to participate in the distribution of "Mandarin Duck Butterfly Dream", they just sit back and wait to collect the money.
For more than a month, in addition to producing albums for Zhai Xiaofeng, Du Xinghe has also been intensively preparing for Xu Nuo's new album and Yi Yan's new album.
Originally, Xu Nuo was supposed to record the new album "Crazy for Love" while the iron was hot, Du Xinghe had already selected a good song for Xu Nuo's new album and arranged the music, but Xu Nuo has been in a really bad mood recently, and he couldn't devote himself to the recording work wholeheartedly, Du Xinghe understood Xu Nuo's situation, so he took Xu Nuo's new album Jihua back.
At the same time, Lu Qin also postponed the release of the album with Xu Nuo.
On this day, the talented female teacher didn't know if she was enlightened by Chen Hua, and she didn't bother Du Xinghe in the past two months.
The day after the end of the year, Du Xinghe went to South China to visit Chen Hua's father and talked with Chen Hua about music and life.
For Du Xinghe, Lin Jianguo must be his closest person, but this uncle is more like an immature big brother than an elder, and many things, Lin Jianguo needs Du Xinghe to take care of him.
Compared with Lin Jianguo, Chen Hua, who is also Du Shan's very good friend, has a mature personality that washes away lead, but he is more like Du Xinghe's elders.
When Du Xinghe encounters problems, he is also more willing to confide in Chen Hua and listen to Chen Hua's suggestions.
In response to Lu Qin's scene that did not end well, Du Xinghe told Chen Hua as it was, and told Chen Hua about his relationship with Xu Nuo.
At that time, Chen Hua was really surprised to hear that Du Xinghe and Lu Qin were acting! Especially when she heard about Du Xinghe's reason for acting, she felt that this was a nonsense farce!
Du Xinghe's performance after the car accident once made Chen Hua feel that Du Xinghe had matured to an inexplicable degree, but at the moment he heard that Du Xinghe and Lu Qin were acting. Chen Hua found out that Du Xinghe was still a child.
She first complained angrily to Lin Jianguo, the initiator of this matter, and then helped Du Xinghe come up with an idea, since she had done this, she would deal with it coldly first.
He and Lu Qin are acting for others to see, and others have seen it now, if he and Lu Qin have a relationship and break up at first glance, it will not be a good thing for both of them, so just leave it alone for now, and don't think about it too much.
Du Xinghe told Chen Hua that he hadn't thought much about it. It's Lu Qin who thinks about it more. He was more worried about Lu Qin's state.
Chen Hua smiled bitterly and told Du Xinghe that she would persuade Lu Qin to try not to let that girl do anything wrong, and Chen Hua didn't say much else.
Since that exchange with Chen Hua. Lu Qin rarely contacted Du Xinghe. Maybe Chen Hua really persuaded her effectively.
Originally, Lu Qin was on winter vacation. also came to Fuwan to find Du Xinghe to record an album around the Spring Festival.
But I don't know if I don't want to see Du Xinghe so soon, and I can't calm the complicated emotions in my heart, Lu Qin went to the United States to hold a computer seminar this winter vacation. She told Du Xinghe not to record the album first, and waited for the next summer vacation to record it.
For Lu Qin's album of the nature of playing tickets, Du Xinghe naturally didn't care when she recorded it, and followed Chen Hua's advice, he is now trying to deal with the relationship with Lu Qin coldly, so it is best not to see Lu Qin.
During this time, he didn't think about Lu Qin at all, let alone take the initiative to call Lu Qin, the only time he took the initiative to call Lu Qin was during the Spring Festival, when Lu Qin sent him the other zodiac signs of the jade chime.
For this priceless gift, Du Xinghe was a little hesitant to return it to Lu Qin, but he really liked to collect musical instruments, especially this kind of precious and highly collectible musical instrument, and finally he accepted this gift generously.
Of course, he didn't receive it for nothing, and when he waited for Lu Qin's birthday at the end of the year, he would definitely give Lu Qin a set of more precious birthday gifts as a return gift.
I believe that as long as they can continue to deal with each other so coldly, by the end of the year, Lu Qin should be able to calmly face the pure friendship between them, which is what Du Xinghe wants to see the most.
To say that playing a boyfriend and girlfriend with Lu Qin really saved Du Xinghe a lot of trouble. At least as far as Du Xinghe knows, Cai Xiaobai, who misunderstood him before, no longer has any misunderstandings about him.
This girl who loves to compose music, after learning from Liao Nan that Du Xinghe has a super beautiful genius girlfriend, her feelings for Du Xinghe disappeared with the wind, and she put all her thoughts on music learning. However, she ultimately failed to pass the interview exam of Fuwan Conservatory of Music before the Spring Festival. She has already signed up for the admissions of St James's Conservatory of Music in Huayi, and is ready to go to the UK to study after graduating in June.
Zhang Xiaozhe also participated in the interview examination of Fuwan Conservatory of Music and South China Conservatory of Music before the Spring Festival, and the results were also brushed down, this frustrated music dream boy, originally wanted to participate in Huayi's study abroad jihua, but he lacked family support, and he couldn't afford the high tuition fees.
After Du Xinghe learned about Zhang Xiaozhe's situation from Liao Nan, he decided to sign Zhang Xiaozhe and become Yun Shijie's contracted singer.
Thinking of Zhang Xiaozhe's businessman's father's contempt for music, as well as his contempt for Huaguang Wolf and others, Du Xinghe wanted to slap him in the face with music.
However, the villain doesn't care about adults, imagining that Zhang Xiaozhe's father is also thinking about Zhang Xiaozhe's future, so he will do this, and Du Xinghe will not be angry with him.
The hearts of his parents, Du Xinghe has gradually realized it now. However, he still thinks that the child's path should be chosen by the child himself, since Zhang Xiaozhe loves music so much, he should give Zhang Xiaozhe a chance to realize his dream.
So after signing Zhang Xiaozhe, Du Xinghe gave Zhang Xiaozhe two choices, the first is that Yun Shijie funded and sponsored Zhang Xiaozhe to go to the UK for further study after graduation; The second is to be a film singer, stay in Yun Shijie after graduation to continue to study and hone his singing skills, and then form a group with Liao Nan, and strive to release their album in the second half of the year or the first half of next year.
The reason why Du Xinghe proposed a second choice to Zhang Xiaozhe was that he couldn't stand it because Liao Nan grinded it, and after the album of "Mandarin Duck Butterfly Dream" was not released, he complained to Du Xinghe every day, saying that Du Xinghe was not enough to cross the river and tear down the bridge at the bottom of the kettle, and Du Xinghe couldn't explain more, in fact, it was for his good.
Zuihou had no choice but to compromise with Liao Nan, who annoyed him every day, and promised to send an album to Liao Nan to compensate Liao Nan. However, he was reluctant to release a solo album to Liao Nan, lest this guy's genius be exposed, soar into the sky, get carried away, and kill himself.
Thinking that Zhang Xiaozhe had a certain binding force on Liao Nan, Du Xinghe thought about forming a combination similar to Yuquan in the previous plane for these two people, first not to be distempered, to accumulate thick and thin, and then to accumulate a certain degree of maturity and popularity, and then finally reach the realm of popularity.
When Zhang Xiaozhe was faced with Du Xinghe's two choices, he initially wanted to go abroad for further study, because he had such a high benchmark as Du Xinghe by his side, he knew that his level was still too far behind, and he was embarrassed to trouble Du Xinghe. He still cultivates himself first, and when he becomes a truly qualified singer, he will release an album again.
can be "tortured" by Liao Nan's madness day after day, Zhang Xiaozhe Zuihou couldn't stand it, and finally agreed to Liao Nan, not to go abroad after graduation, and Liao Nan formed a combination, and stayed in Yunshijie to help Du Xinghe.
Zhang Xiaozhe made this decision for a more important reason, that is, he learned that Xiaoyu had been empty for nearly two years and had no boyfriend. Joining Yun Shijie, he and Xiaoyu will have more opportunities to get in touch. (To be continued......)
