Chapter 365: Diary of a Singapore Fan
"A Singaporean fan's diary?"
Brother Chic gently read out the title, and then he squinted his eyes slightly, approached the computer a little distractedly, and subconsciously glanced at the name of the website, but it was NetEase's entertainment page.
Gao Yan didn't say anything, just slowly flipped through the page.
"Brother Chic's album is coming out, you know?"
This is a topic that all our fans have been asking each other a lot in recent days.
To be honest, I've always felt honored to be a member of a "veteran" dashing gang by accident.
Really, because I think my favorite idol is so extraordinary!
Not to mention how handsome and handsome he is, after all, there are many beautiful men; doesn't say how secure he is, after all, there are a lot of muscular men in Europe and the United States.
The most important thing is that he is completely different from other stars.
Yes, he's really different.
He is not an old-fashioned trickster who has been around for several years, let alone a criticised draft background, and he has not even undergone any systematic training at all.
It can be said that in him, the word talent is so vividly embodied.
His extraordinariness is due to his endless magical abilities, and these magical abilities are completely learned by himself, without masters to teach and no institutions to spend money on training.
It is no exaggeration to say that my idol Tang Xiaosheng, his existence is a living and successful teaching material.
The more dazzling he is, the more people will understand that people are really talented. Just like him, since he can't get ahead in school. Then you might as well look for your talent!
So. His appearance and success. It is definitely an inspiration to countless confused young people, and he is undoubtedly a guiding light and life mentor in our minds.
And as a fan who admires him very much, I usually pay close attention to collecting information about him, whether it is his travel performances, his advertising moments, or his glory moments. I know it all, and I've documented it all.
I was thrilled when I learned that he was hosting a grand outdoor performance for hundreds of thousands of people;
When he announced that he would join the big-budget film "The True Colors of Men", I cheered;
I was so proud of him when he had unprecedented success performing in the United States;
I was delighted when his pre-sales broke the Asian record;
I once took his poster and said to all my friends: "You see, this is my idol, he is no worse than anyone else, he is very versatile, even Michael is very talented. Jackson couldn't even compare to him. On top of that, he's much more handsome than MJ! ”
After my propaganda development. Many of my friends around me have fallen in love with him now, and we always talk about him, and we have joined our "Tang Chic Fan Forum" in Singapore.
In the beginning, there were less than 100 people in this forum, and when I joined, it was only 65.
But later, with the huge success of his American performances, which won the recognition of the world's mainstream newspapers, especially the continuous strong coverage of local Chinese newspapers in Singapore, his name and deeds gradually spread, and even the Malaysia next door began to be noticed by many people.
At this time, the number of registrations for the "Fan Forum" also began to surge significantly, and many fans of Nanyang actually took the initiative to visit this website and joined in one after another, and there were many Malays.
Under this opportunity, the Singapore Support Club was finally established, and everyone also established a uniform support color and uniform, so that if the idol came to Singapore one day, he would feel our enthusiasm.
Just completed this significant thing, the idol's debut album began to accept pre-orders, although our Singapore support club only has more than 30,000 registrations, but we still broke out our strongest liliang, and soon pre-ordered 15,000 copies, and the pre-order ratio reached 1/2, which is a very high data, because generally speaking, if you can have 1/4 of the registered fans to pre-order, it is already quite a high proportion.
But this data still does not satisfy us, after all, the pre-sale of 15,000 tickets is simply not enough to help the idol break the local pre-order record, and at least 50,000 copies are needed.
But there is no way, in half a month, we only increased the pre-sale to 21,700, this data is already very dazzling in this year's Star City, which is only more than 2K less than the pre-order of "Still Fantaisi" released by Jay Chou two months ago, and it is also the second best pre-sale volume this year.
Before leaving for Shanghai, the president told us, "It's okay, we didn't break the record this time, we didn't become the number one, then we'll come back next time!" Don't just focus on pre-sale records, don't forget that there are also the highest sales records of the year and song charts! We can't afford to lose in these areas anymore. ”
We all know very well that Jay Chou's heritage is very deep after all, he debuted for 6 years, at least in Southeast Asia, his popularity and popularity are higher than idols, as long as there is more time, we are convinced that with the strength of idols, he will definitely easily surpass Jay Chou and Liu Dehua and become the first Chinese star in the new Malaysia and Thailand region.
With this in mind, we watched the idol's album launch in Shanghai on the Internet, and for the first time heard how good "Blue and White Porcelain" and "Little Dimple" were, and at the same time deeply felt the deep friendship contained in the song "Xiexie You".
To be honest, I don't know what other friends think, but I know that just with the two songs "Blue and White Porcelain" and "Little Dimple", this record has a lot of purchase value, especially "Blue and White Porcelain", I have auditioned it no less than ten times in a row, it is like a natural sound, it is too poetic, too classic!
Sure enough, my taste was right.
When I went on the forum, almost all of the people who caught my attention were the song of Parity, and everyone was shouting that they liked it very much, and it would definitely become a classic hit.
At that moment, we began to log on to the online page of Radio 933, and we also sent text messages to this radio station on our mobile phones, all of which were voting.
We don't know how high the score will be at this time. I don't know if it will be on the list today. But I know. According to the quality of this song and our joint efforts, this week's "New Song Dragon and Tiger List" will definitely have the position of "Blue and White Porcelain", either first or second.
After voting, I immediately took my pre-order slip and ran to a nearby chain store of Sembawang Music (one of the four major record stores in Singapore) to collect my pre-order records and giveaways.
"Oh my God, why are there so many people?"
When I got out of the car. The whole person was completely stupid, because there was a long queue at this record store.
Yes, the queue at the record store is a long, long time spectacle, and I've only seen it twice myself, and that was before 2000.
But today, it's shocking that this big record store is once again in a long queue and more and more people are joining.
"Could it be that someone is holding the book signing in the store?"
That's all I had at the time, because it's unlikely that there will be a singer right now. With such a strong attraction, after all, there is an online audio source. People are no longer willing to buy an entire album just for a certain favorite song like they did in 10 years.
As I was sighing, I saw several people hurrying over, all of them young people, and I could tell at a glance that they were students.
Seeing them, I couldn't care less about being curious, so I immediately joined the queue before them, and asked a young man in the front row curiously: "Brother, whose signing party is being held here?" Why are so many people queuing? ”
This young man told me very enthusiastically: "It's not a signing meeting, we all listened to the radio to buy records, and Tang Xiaosa of the mainland knows, right?" I just think his new song "Blue and White Porcelain" is very good, I heard that the entire Sing Tao has only entered 30,000 copies of the listed version, and it will take at least a week to come late! ”
Another person also said: "That's it, I didn't want to come to buy it, but I heard that there were only 30,000 copies, so I came, after all, the song "Blue and White Porcelain" is really good, and the radio DJ also highly recommended that the whole album is very good, so I'll buy one!" ”
I opened my mouth wide in shock, and looked at the crowd in front of me in disbelief.
Really, I was stupid and couldn't believe that so many people came to buy records just after listening to the radio, it was so fantastical.
With this idea in mind, I took the initiative to inquire with the people in front of me and behind me, and it turned out that these people were indeed attracted by the sound of "Blue and White Porcelain".
In particular, under the strong recommendation of the DJ of the 933 Music Dragon and Tiger Chart, many ordinary fans believed it, which caused this rare frenzy of queuing up to buy records.
I'm deeply happy that idols' records are selling so well, but queuing for too long is obviously not a comfortable thing.
I waited in line for more than half an hour, and the people from Zuihou or the record store walked out and announced that the record was sold out, and the people in line sighed and left, and I got my pre-order version.
I don't know exactly how many copies have been sold in other places, but I do know that based on the sales of this record store I've seen, it's likely that most of the whole of Singapore has already been sold, and it will be out of stock tomorrow at the latest, and those who want to buy it will have to wait a few days to do so.
I went home with the records and posters, put the CDs into the machine, sat on the couch and listened quietly, 10 songs, a full 40 minutes, and I didn't move.
Because I really know what sincerity is and what is worthiness.
Aside from the fan's mentality, just in the mood of a fan, this CD is definitely a collection of high-quality works, a classic studio work that has never been seen before, and I can hardly bear to pause, just listen to this record over and over again.
I decided, I want to buy another one for my collection, I started to look forward to the arrival of my idol very much, and I would love to attend his book signing.
I think this is a common idea among many fans who have bought the album. (To be continued......)
