Chapter 458: The First Record
Kid Arthur is the most powerful presence in the American music scene today, relying on the two songs "yes!" and "Burn", he has dominated the Billboard chart for 17 consecutive weeks, setting a record that people can only look up to.
Originally, this record could have continued, in fact, in the previous life, Arthur Kid stayed at the top of the list for a full twenty-two weeks.
But now this record is about to be broken, Lu Chong's "I'mYours" sold explosively yesterday, only behind "Burn" by less than 10,000 margins, and it can definitely reach the top today.
In this context, if you are an ordinary person, you are so terrified that you hate Lu Chong so much, but you didn't expect that Arthur Kid would become the first singer to stand up and support Lu Chong.
"Lu is my idol, in fact, I am learning Bajiquan, and "I'mYours" is amazing, I am convinced that Lu broke my record with such a song!"
When asked why he would like to attend the concert, Kid Arthur replied like this.
Fans of Arthur Kid, who originally had some opinions because Lu Chong broke the record, immediately changed their minds completely after hearing this answer, and even many people went to buy Lu Chong's album in order to be able to hear their idols and idols' idols singing live.
Kid Arthur's announcement was just the beginning, and in just one day, more than a dozen singers had already announced that they would participate in the performance.
And because of Arthur Kid taking the lead, those singers who are not famous and influential enough consciously gave up their plans to participate, and the singers who announced to participate in the performance next are all superstars in the American music scene!
Lincoln Park!
Green Day Band!
Madonna!
Britney!
......
One by one, all of them are thunderous names.
Even Avril, who became famous for participating in the closing ceremony of the European Cup with Lu Chong, looks a little dim in such a lineup.
The enthusiasm of the American music scene for this concert was completely unexpected by the FBI and Joanna's company, so much so that only in the afternoon of the same day, Joanna had to shout in the media, announcing that the concert was full.
In just half a day, more than twenty singers and bands have announced their participation in the concert. Even if each of these people only sings one song, plus the four songs that Lu Chong was originally going to sing, it has already made the time of this concert exceed four hours!
And with the joining of these superstars, it has driven the sales of Lu Chong's singles even more, so that in many cities, there have been scenes that are hard to find.
Fortunately, the record industry in the United States is developed enough, and Joanna and the company reacted quickly enough to start adjusting the stock in time, so as not to affect the sales of the record too much.
By the end of the night, when the record sales were counted, the numbers shocked everyone!
Five hundred and sixty thousand!
A new single-day sales record was inadvertently born!
Lu Chong achieved the first record in the American music market.
On the first day, only 4,000 tickets were released in the United States, which means that less than one percent of the lucky ones who bought the record received tickets.
Such a small chance did not stop the enthusiasm of the fans, on the contrary, many fans who had already purchased the record came back to the record store out of luck.
Five hundred and twenty thousand!
This is the result of the sales of "I'mYours" on Saturday, which sold more than a million copies in just two days, and even the most professional music critics could only be dumbfounded and speechless about the result.
On Sunday, the record sold 510,000 copies again, surpassing 500,000 sales for three consecutive days, setting a record of horror that has never been seen before, and it is extremely difficult to find a person after horror.
A total of 14,000 tickets were finally given away, and the much-anticipated anti-terrorism concert also arrived as scheduled!
Due to the extremely strict security checks, the organizer of the concert, the FBI, began to let the audience open from 4 p.m., and by 8 p.m., the scene had been filled with enthusiastic crowds.
The lights on the stage lit up, and in the cheers of everyone, Lu Chong stepped onto the stage.
"Welcome to today's concert and thank you for the miracle you have done for me. You have shown the terrorists that the Americans will never bow down to them, and I am so proud of you!"
"As for terrorist activities, I believe that the root of everything is still the war, and only the day when the war completely disappears will it be when the terrorist activities completely disappear from our lives. ”
"The following song "21GUNS" is a song I specially composed for today's concert, I hope you like it, and I hope that the world will be just like the song sings, one day, all of us are willing to put down the weapons in our hands!"
After speaking, Lu Chong raised his head to the sky and roared the return of his soul, and then began to pull out the guitar in his hand and officially began to sing.
If this world can really be without war, maybe his comrades-in-arms will live well now, and this song is also a gift from Lu Chong.
The song "21GUNS" is a single released by the famous American band Green Sun in 2009, and the song promotes anti-war ideas.
And today, the real author of this song, the Green Day Band, is also backstage, just before going on stage, Lu Chong also hugged them to thank them, this kind of plagiarism in front of the original creator, Lu Chong is the first time to do it, it feels quite strange.
However, Lu Chong didn't expect the Green Day Band to take the initiative to participate in this concert, otherwise he would not have chosen this song.
Accompanied by a beautiful melody, Lu Chong perfectly interpreted the essence of the song with a slightly sad tone, and the anti-war ideas in the song resonated at the scene, and the originally lively audience became completely quiet with this song.
It wasn't until Lu Chong finished singing that the scene was silent for a few seconds before thunderous applause rang out. With such a song as the opening song of today's concert, it is really suitable.
Because he was only going to sing four songs, Lu Chong could only appear interspersed throughout the concert, and after singing this song, Lu Chong got off the stage, but did not retreat backstage, but stayed in the audience and was with the fans.
The performances of the guests on the stage were very exciting, but Lu Chong's energy was not focused on singing, but he had been focusing on searching the crowd with his eyes.
The FBI's security check may be able to prevent terrorists from bringing in sharp weapons and firearms, but in this organization, there is a terrifying existence like Bloody Shara, and Lu Chong doesn't think that the FBI can stop the intrusion of that superhuman existence.
The reason why Lu Chong agreed to the concert proposed by the FBI, in addition to promoting his own record, is that the main purpose is to lure out all the enemies hidden in the dark in this way!
