Chapter 188: Hot Release (1)
16 April 1994.
A very ordinary day.
Of course, this day was not ordinary for Chen Qiming.
Today is the day of the global release of his fourth Chinese record.
Cheng, he will become the first person in the Chinese music scene, and no one will question it.
If he fails, he will continue to lie dormant and wait for the right time to attack the position.
It seems that whether it succeeds or not, it doesn't have much impact on him.
But in fact, the impact is still very large.
If he can't beat the crowd with this album, then in the eyes of the media and even the future people, he is at best an existence on the same level as the Four Heavenly Kings.
Although this grade is already a goal that countless people cannot reach in their lifetime.
But for Chen Qiming, he is not satisfied with this now.
Since he successfully made a name for himself in the Japanese music scene last year, Chen Qiming has set a goal for himself, that is, within two years, he will aim for Europe and the United States.
It can be said that the success of this album is related to whether he can confidently and boldly develop in the direction of Europe and the United States.
A solid base camp will definitely be an important confidence for him to enter Europe and the United States.
"Ahh Hurry up, you're so slow! ”
"It's coming, it's coming!"
At Tsinghua University on the treasure island, two female students came out of the dormitory and walked briskly towards the video store on the east side.
"Ahh You can tell how many copies this album will sell! ”
The shorter girl asked as she walked.
"It's so popular, and the songs on the charts are so good, how can I say that there are millions of copies!"
A slightly taller, girl named Ah Zhen analyzed.
The short girl nodded, and said solemnly:
"Mingming's last album sold more than 7 million last year.
With the current level of popularity, I think it will sell tens of millions of copies! ”
As she spoke, her eyes lit up, "It would be nice if it could really sell tens of millions, I have checked, looking at the world, there are not many people with annual sales of more than 10 million."
Not to mention the treasure island, if you can really sell so much, you can definitely be called a god! ”
"I hope so! But I'm afraid it's hard! ”
Ah Zhen nodded, and then asked, "By the way, how many records are you going to buy today?" ”
"I'm going to buy four copies, one for my usual listening, one for collecting, one for my cousin, and one I'm going to take back to school and play it to other people, and call on them to buy this album too!"
The short girl spoke.
"You are so extravagant, my words, I can only buy one first, and then buy one when my part-time salary comes down."
Ah Zhen said with envy.
Her economic conditions are much worse than those of short girls.
Being able to buy one is already considered to support an idol.
Both of them should be regarded as Chen Qiming's fans.
From Chen Qiming's first EP, they began to pay attention to him.
When they paid attention to Chen Qiming, Chen Qiming was just an ordinary newcomer, although he was handsome, how could he be as beautiful as he is now.
It is also a witness to Chen Qiming's development from an ordinary singer to an international superstar.
This made their love for Chen Qiming more and more crazy.
Chen Qiming's movies, songs, and even a variety show, they will support them.
A few days ago, a guy named Black Songbird slandered Chen Qiming in the newspaper, and in order to give Chen Qiming a head, they also specially called on a group of people to smash the newspaper office.
Well, in Chen Qiming's dream, they should be the kind of brainless fans.
"Oh my God! Why so many people? ”
When Ah Zhen and the others arrived at the video store closest to the school, they were stunned by the scene in front of them.
I saw that at the entrance of the video store, which was not large, there were two lines of winding and twisting, spreading out more than 20 meters.
[It's all your fault that you fell in love with me easily]
[Let me unconsciously satisfy the vanity of being loved]
[It's all your fault, your pet to people]
[It's a temptation]
The video store is playing a song that Ah Zhen and the others have never heard before.
As loyal fans of Chen Qiming, Ah Zhen and the others only listened to one sentence, and immediately judged that this was Chen Qiming's voice.
"A picture of Chen Qiming's "Star Storm"!"
"Two records of Chen Qiming!"
"Chen Qiming is awesome, all golden songs!"
At the front of the line, customers were yelling for their boss to bring them records.
Maybe it's because there are too many people, and I'm afraid that someone will have three hands after putting it in, so the boss blocked the store and didn't let people in.
"Boss, you just let us go in and get it ourselves! You're so slow! ”
Someone noticed that the team was moving too slowly and couldn't help but shout.
The boss, who was constantly collecting money to pick up the goods to customers, wiped the sweat beads on his face, and said with a smile:
"Don't worry! You can rest assured, I have bought thousands of copies of Chen Qiming's album for stocking, and there will definitely be no pick-up. ”
"That's a lot! Ah Zhen, why don't we come back in the evening? ”
The puppy girl glanced at the two long lines and said hesitantly.
"I have classes in the evening, I don't have time to come out, let's go to another house on the street! That video store is a little bigger, so it shouldn't be so urgent. ”
Ah Zhen looked at the long queue and felt that there was some delay, so he proposed.
"No fun! I just came over there, and it's even more crowded over there!
Damn, buying a record, it's like you're grabbing money! I'm also convinced! ”
At this time, someone next to him passed by the two of them, and when they heard their words, they couldn't help but say something.
Hearing this, Ah Zhen and his friend glanced at each other.
"Let's line up here first!" The two said in unison.
With a decision, the two immediately ran to the back of the line and began to line up.
"You want to buy a record?"
As soon as the two of them lined up, the man with glasses in front of them turned around and asked.
"Of course, why come to the queue if you don't buy records!"
Ah Zhen rolled his eyes.
She is very beautiful, and people usually talk to her.
Subconsciously, she thought that the boy was going to talk to her.
"Then you guys come to the front!"
Hearing this, the man with glasses turned sideways and let Ah Zhen and the others line up in front of him.
The behavior of the glasses man, Ah Zhen and the others thought they were courteous at first.
But when there was another fat girl at the back of the line, and she was also let to the front by the glasses man, the two of them realized that he was not courteous
Ah Zhen was curious about his behavior of lining up by himself, but sacrificing himself to keep letting the people behind him line up in front, and couldn't help asking:
"Don't you sell records?"
Hearing this, the man with the eyes smiled embarrassedly, "The economy has been tight recently, and I can't afford it!" ”
"Then you ......"
Before Ah Zhen could finish her words, the man with glasses interrupted her.
"The songs on this album are all good, all of them are what I like, I'm going to listen to them here!"
The man with glasses said, pointing to the stereo in the video store.
"It's coming! I like this one the most! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the singing voice in the stereo changed to a new song.
[Is it really cruel to leave]
[Or meekness is shameful]
[Or lonely people don't matter]
[No day, no night, no conditions]
The singing immediately attracted everyone in line, and from time to time there were people on the side of the road who were attracted by the singing and ran over to line up.
At this time, the man with glasses took out his notebook and began to quickly copy the lyrics.
