Chapter 193: Terrifying Sales
After the graduation party.
The three songs sung by Lu Yewei that night were all on the hot search.
Since the audio source was not released, netizens could only hear the full version through the video released by the school after the party.
Of course.
Although people who have recorded on the spot due to copyright issues cannot publish it on the public platform, it is still possible to send resources to each other privately, and the three songs "The Year in a Hurry", "Daoxiang" and "You at the Same Table" have gone viral in various chat software.
June is graduation season.
These three songs instantly became popular on the Internet and became a must-have track for the graduation parties of major and secondary colleges and universities in the future, which was a hot mess.
And it is in this atmosphere.
Lu's second album was released in late June.
The title of the album is "To the young of us are all the same".
It contains twelve songs, the digital version costs thirty-six yuan, the physical album sells for ninety-nine, and the collection is priced at one hundred and ninety-nine.
First day of sale.
Zhang Wenting was nervous and focused on the sales data.
Five minutes later, she refreshed the page.
The digital version sold 220,000 and the physical album sold 80,000.
Fans are always the ones who start the game.
Five minutes to have this data made her breathe a sigh of relief.
The release time is 12 noon.
At one o'clock, Lu Yewei's studio posted a Weibo, and in addition to thanking fans, the content was to report the results.
The one-hour digital version sold more than two million copies, while the total physical album sold more than half a million.
Among them, the sales of the collector's edition album are 150,000!
The sales of the Collector's Edition alone exceeded 30 million!
For a while, major media began to scramble to report, and even shouted the slogan of the return of the golden age of physical albums!
"Wow! Brother Ye's album sales are a bit exaggerated! I'm also going to buy a few hundred for him to give away, so there's no need to buy them, right? ā
It was Yixing who said this.
At this time, he was recording the scene of the men's gang.
It's time to rest, Mr. Huang and others are beside him, Brother Bo heard the curious probe, Yixing sensibly put the phone close, when he saw the data on it clearly, Brother Bo also exclaimed: "I went ~ an hour digital version of the album sold two million copies?" Who is this? ā
Teacher Huang sat on Brother Bo's right hand, turned his head sideways to look at the two of them and said with a smile: "It's Ye Wei, right?" I remember his album coming out today. ā
Ye Wei?
Lu Yehao?
The topic discussed by several people made the eyes of the director team sitting not far away.
Meanwhile.
During this time, Lu Yewei became a master of time management, filming TV dramas from Monday to Friday, returning to the capital on weekends to participate in teacher Pu Shengbin's rehearsals, and accompanying Yumi and others in Qiandao during the period.
The interior scenes of the TV series were completed very quickly, thanks to his comic-quality storyboards, which were properly planned on premise and were able to shoot the required shots for two or three episodes a day.
Completing the shoot in a month doesn't seem to be a problem.
On the set.
At noon, Lu Yewei, as the boss, starring, director and other people with multiple identities, naturally has his own lounge, and there are two people in the lounge besides him at this time.
Long Ling, as the starring actor, is also his girlfriend announced to the public, so she will naturally accompany him during the break, and the other person is Zhang Wei.
"Boss! The samples of the first three episodes have been seen by Mango Channel and Dragon TV, although the two are very interested, but I heard that the price is not too high after 52 episodes, Mango Channel's bid is 2 million per episode, and Dragon TV is only 15 million. ā
Lu Yewei's new drama has a total of 52 episodes, and it is not surprising that all of them can be produced in late July.
At this time, the news brought by Zhang Wei was not good news.
Although the production cost of the new drama is divided into the two upcoming films, it is still a whopping 5 million episodes.
These fifty-two episodes down.
The production cost is as high as 260 million.
I can see that Zhang Wei is very embarrassed about the two offers he gets.
Lu Yewei shook his head with a smile when he heard the sound and said, "Normal! For 52 episodes of TV series, 2 million episodes is as high as 110 million, and with this money, Mango TV can buy five or six romance dramas and broadcast them for a year. ā
Lu Yewei could laugh out of his mind, which Zhang Wei didn't expect.
"Then boss, do we still sell it? If this first round only sells 2 million, the payback period will be long. ā
Hearing this, Lu Yewei shook his head.
As Zhang Wei said, if you sell it, the payback period is too long.
On the side, Long Ling saw Lu Yewei, who was frowning and thinking, and said softly: "Why don't I help you think of a way?" ā
Hearing this, the eyes of the two looked at her.
Zhang Wei didn't know, but Lu Yewei could guess it, and immediately shook his head softly and said: "Don't bother, CCTV can't come up with such a high price, the first round of bidding up to two million has come to an end." ā
I can get this price.
It should be seen in the case that his traffic and the quality of the first three episodes are amazing enough.
After all, this is not a popular theme TV series at the moment, but a completely new genre.
Although Zhang Wei was surprised that Long Ling could have a relationship with CCTV, he was still frantically thinking of ways to help Lu Yewei at this time.
"Why don't you open the package and sell more than one to try? If a single episode is only one million episodes, it shouldn't be difficult to find three TV stations. ā
Zhang Wei's words made Lu Yewei's eyes light up.
However, the three million cannot be recovered in the first round.
At this point, he thought of one of the most common routines in entertainment he had seen before.
Immediately looked at Zhang Wei and asked: "You said that if you set up conditions for the average ratings of the first round of broadcasting without breaking one and not charging money, can you find five TV stations that are willing to broadcast at the same time and are willing to bid for one million episodes?" ā
Ratings breaking 1 is an important metric in the broadcast TV industry, as it could mean that the TV show has won the love and popularity of a wide audience.
Commercially, high ratings also mean that the show has a higher commercial value, as more viewers can see the ads, which in turn attracts more advertising investment.
Zhang Wei thought about it after hearing this.
looked at Lu Yewei with resolute eyes and nodded.
Fifty-two episodes.
It is definitely not possible to broadcast two episodes a week, it is currently summer vacation, and Lu Yewei feels that broadcasting one episode a day is a very appropriate frequency.
Zhang Wei also lived up to Lu Yewei's expectations.
After a week of running around with the first three episodes of Lu Yewei's new drama, he signed contracts with five second-echelon Shangxing TV stations.
As for why there is no T1.
Naturally, Mango Channel and Dragon TV, which are in T1, can't watch non-exclusive premiere TV series.
As for T0's CCTV, they are very happy to broadcast, but they will not sign this kind of gambling contract.
If the average rating in the contract is less than one, the TV station will not have to pay Lu Yewei any fees, and if the ratings are higher than one, the TV station will pay Lu Yewei a fee of one million episodes.
If you break two, it's 1.5 million.
And so on.
This can be said to be a cheap pick for nothing for the TV station.
There are resources to play, and there is no need to pay in advance, and if the conditions can be met, they are willing to pay for the money.
Of course.
They also have some obligations.
For example, five television stations must avoid each other's air slots.
There was a little episode here, after all, they all wanted to broadcast it earlier, of course, too early, and the noon file became a time slot for these five TV stations.
Early July.
Lu Yewei received a call from Zhang Wei.
Knowing that several TV stations were arguing over the lunch stall, he said directly without thinking about it: "Let's draw lots!" Discuss five suitable times, and whichever time slot will be drawn and which time slot will be broadcast! ā
I have to say that this solution is a bit simple and crude.
But it's also a good idea.
In the contract, their initiative was still very high, and after making this suggestion, three of the five directly agreed.
"You seem to be busy?"
Pu Shengbin pushed down his glasses and looked at Lu Yewei with a smile.
The place where the two were at this time was the auditorium of the Central Conservatory of Music, and the two who had just finished rehearsal were sitting in Pu Shengbin's rest room to exchange problems during the rehearsal process.
"Sorry! Mr. Pu Shengbin, let's continue the topic just now! I think cello."
Lu Yewei's professionalism is very high, and his understanding is very strong, basically he can remember what Pu Shengbin said once, and Pu Shengbin likes his new student very much.
Then the two connected to the topic just now.
After an hour, Pu Shengbin glanced at his watch and said softly, "That's it for today!" I think the question you said is feasible, and tomorrow we will rehearse it again and try it according to what you said. ā
I can see Pu Shengbin's face full of relief.
After all, there are really not many people of the same age who can chat with him for two hours on professional topics, and several times he has put forward a few questions that he and Lu Yewei have said before, and Lu Yewei can also answer them fluently.
It can only be said that there are really geniuses in this world.
On the way home.
Fang Yuan began to report to Lu Yehuan.
"It's been a week since the album was launched, and the digital version has sold more than five million, and Xinghuo wants to have an interview today."
Hearing this, Lu Yewei looked at the already dark sky outside the window.
He immediately replied, "Can I refuse?" ā
After speaking, Lu Yewei looked at Fang Yuan with an embarrassed face through the rearview mirror, and immediately she shrugged her shoulders and said, "Okay!" I'll just go! ā
Hear this.
Fang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Be reasonable.
It's a bit magical, obviously they are all serving Lu Yewei, but Lu Yewei always looks like they are persecuting him.
Some jobs can be refused, but after all, there is a music association behind Xinghuo, and it is best not to refuse this kind of request that is not too excessive.
Meanwhile.
Fans of Lu Yewei on the Internet are carnivaling.
With sales of one million copies in the first five weeks, Lu Yewei broke a number of digital album sales records.
And it was ten o'clock that night.
The Xinghuo platform updated an interview video on the homepage.
The cover picture is Lu Yewei, which instantly attracted a large number of platform users to click in.
The video of the interview is only ten minutes long.
In the first few seconds, everyone frantically left messages on the barrage.
"Tell me out loud that you are my first sons!"
"First!"
"Why hasn't Lu Yewei appeared much this month!"
"It seems like you're filming a TV series? I heard that he is currently talking to several TV stations at the same time! ā
"Is there a new drama again? That's nice! ā
"It's coming! Appeared! Lu Yewei, I love you! (ā²āµ)I Lā
Lu Yewei appeared in the picture at this time to greet the audience.
Sitting on the sofa, he hugged a pillow, leaving without makeup and the modern magic of the filter, so that his appearance made a group of female fans unbearable!
The beginning is naturally thanks to the fans.
After all, the sales of five million are really exaggerated, and the best results in the first week are only three million, and Lu Yewei's sales of five million have caused an earthquake in the circle.
When asked if there is an advance estimate of sales.
Lu Yewei picked up the microphone and shook his head: "No!" Not at all! My studio initially estimated that it was expected to sell two million, and when it was achieved on the first day, I was quite surprised."
Puff~
Lu Yewei's reaction made fans who watched the interview video laugh out loud.
They have a copy of the sales data of five million, which is very cool to have a feeling of honor.
The host is a girl.
is the CCTV host.
From this, we can also see the unusual status of Xinghuo.
The host Bingbing's smile was very sweet, but the red tide on her face meant that her mood was not calm at this time, and it could only be alleviated by checking her hand card frequently.
Professionalism is completely lost at this moment.
She could imagine that after the interview was broadcast, the leader would probably talk to her
Soon.
At the end of the interview, Lu Yewei sang a song from the album, a fairy tale that made Bingbing on the side burst into tears.
Of course.
The scene of crying was naturally edited
Lu Yewei's album has a total of twelve songs, three of which have been exposed at the graduation party before, and the remaining nine songs are currently the most popular fairy tales.
However, some people regret why the heroine of this song MV is not a sister
Throughout the month of July.
Lu Yewei's album popularity topped the list, and the hot song section of the star was directly slaughtered for half a month, at this time, even if Dong Chou released a song, it is estimated that he will not be able to grab a few positions.
After all, Lu Yewei's album occupies the right time, place and people!
Cast.
Teacher Huang and Yixing came to visit the class.
After taking the two of them to visit the crew, they went into the city together to find a restaurant to eat.
chatted about Lu Yewei's album at the dinner table, and Yixing said excitedly at this time: "Brother Ye, your two albums are one platinum and one diamond, and you are directly a two-step king!" ā
Yixing's words Lu Yewei always felt a bit of middle two, and the two-step king always felt that it was a word that would be used in online articles.
Hearing this, he still wanted to be humble.
But Mr. Huang interrupted him and bluntly said that Lu Yewei is now a king-level singer.
The king of heaven is not sealed by himself, this requires time to precipitate and have a hard enough award, at least until the end of the third annual Chinese music festival next year, Lu Yewei will not dare to wear this hat.
As for the second session in August, Lu Yewei didn't release an album last year, so naturally he couldn't win the award, at this time, looking at the two people who came from afar to blow directly, Lu Yewei laughed softly: "Why don't we just talk about business?"
Lu Yewei wouldn't believe that the two of them came here to praise him.
It's obvious.
The two of them came here for a purpose!
