Chapter 195: Chen Qiming is retiring from the music scene?

It's May.

The cast of "Storm and Storm" is fully confirmed.

Chen Qiming plays Bu Jingyun, Liming plays Nie Feng, Li Jiaxin plays Kong Ci, Xu Shujuan plays Chu Chu, Thousand Faces Rulai Liu Xun plays the Sword Saint, and Takeshi Kaneshiro plays Qin Shuang.

In addition, the most important supporting role, who is also the villain, or the real protagonist of this movie, is the Japanese actor Shinichi Chiba.

Judging from the lineup, this is definitely a movie with an explosive lineup.

gathered the three king-level existences of Hong Kong and Taiwan, the most beautiful Hong Kong sister, and Xu Shujuan, who is currently very popular on Treasure Island.

As soon as this lineup was announced, it immediately caused a heated discussion in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

Many media and audiences have expressed their anticipation for the release of this movie.

In addition to "Fengyun", Wong Kar-wai's "Chongqing Forest" also confirmed the cast.

Chen Qiming led, Takeshi Kaneshiro, Lin Qingxia, and Faye Wong joined together.

Chen Qiming announced that he would star in two movies one after another, which aroused the curiosity of some media to a certain extent.

Many media thought that Chen Qiming was going to start gradually focusing on movies and began to report on it.

"Chen Qiming Shifts the Focus of His Career to the Film Industry"

"Can Chen Qiming, who has taken on many films, continue his myth in the music world? 》

……

The rendering of the media has also affected Chen Qiming's fans to a certain extent.

On the day Chen Qiming returned to Baodao, a large number of fans gathered at Baodao Airport, holding signs and shouting loudly.

"Don't give up singing, we're going to hear you sing!"

"Obviously, we don't exclude you from acting in movies, but you must not give up singing!"

"We're going to hear you sing!"

The whole airport was full of cries.

finally got rid of these fans, and many of Chen Qiming's friends in the music scene also called him to ask if he wanted to quit the music scene.

Even Luo Dayou called to inquire about this.

"Big guy, that's completely fake news, how could I quit the music scene so quickly.

I'm planning to release an English album in the second half of the year! ”

After listening to Luo Dayou's words on the phone to persuade himself not to give up singing, Chen Qiming couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Oh? English records? You...... Are you sure? ”

Luo Dayou didn't expect it to be an oolong, but when he heard Chen Qiming say that he was going to release an English record, he immediately became interested.

"It's alright! Personally, I think my songs are pretty good.

However, whether it can successfully enter the English market is uncertain!

But whether you succeed or not, you have to try! Outsiders have always said that I am an international superstar, but when I go out of Asia, my influence is actually like that.

This time, I'm going to expand my influence in this area. ”

In Asia, Chen Qiming can definitely be called the top now.

The huge sales figures made him popular.

In both Japan and South Korea, especially Japan, the center of Asian music, he has a large number of fans.

Overall, he is definitely one of the hottest singers in the whole of Asia.

At the end of last year, with the Japanese album "Chen Qiming", among the most popular foreign male singers selected by the Japanese media, he also unprecedentedly suppressed Michael Jackson and became the most popular male singer in Japan.

He and Jackie Chan were each called the first people in Hong Kong and Taiwan film and music by the Japanese media.

And in South Korea.

Although Mr. Chan has not released a single Korean song so far, he also won the Most Popular Foreign Singer award at last year's Korean Golden Disc Awards.

At the same time, he ranks seventh among the most popular foreign stars in South Korea.

Don't underestimate seventh.

This is not a Hong Kong and Taiwan star selected.

In this list, there are only three people from Hong Kong and Taiwan who were selected, namely Jackie Chan, Jet Li and him.

The others are European and American stars, such as Michael Jackson, Stallone and so on.

Even Chow Yun-fat and Leslie Cheung, two who are popular in South Korea with "The True Colors of Heroes", were not selected in the top ten in this list.

Of course, the reason why this is the case is mainly because the film output of these two last year was not too strong.

Especially Chow Yun-fat, he didn't make a movie last year.

If there is no work, it will naturally decline in popularity.

As for Jackie Chan and Jet Li.

It is not for nothing that these two can be called international superstars.

Jackie Chan has been one of the most popular existences in Japan and South Korea since the 80s.

And Jet Li, Huang Feihong series, Fang Shiyu series, and a bunch of action movies have successfully made him have a good influence in Japan and South Korea, especially South Korea.

In the existence of these big coffees, Chen Qiming can rely on Chinese and Chinese songs to kill a place in it, which is enough to see his horror.

"Then I congratulate you in advance on your entry into the English market!

If you can really break into the English-speaking market, not to mention anything else, I think you are the first person in the Chinese music scene. ”

On the phone, Luo Dayou joked.

"Oh? That's great! When the time comes, I'll wait for you to praise me like this in the media! ”

Chen Qiming responded with a smile.

After dealing with Luo Dayou, Chen Qiming immediately arranged for someone to hold a press conference to explain that he would not quit the music scene.

To be honest, he was helpless.

Originally, it was just a small matter that a certain media said that he would turn his career focus to the film industry.

After some media publicity and false rumors from fans, it actually evolved into his withdrawal from the music scene.

Plus, the fans are too stingy.

When others want to quit the music scene, the record will usher in a big explosion.

When he arrived, after fans heard the news, his "Star Storm" not only did not explode, but also rarely experienced a decline in sales.

This was really puzzling to him.

In order not to misunderstand fans, and in order to stabilize the sales of the record, he could only choose to hold this press conference.

In addition to explaining the matter, of course.

At this press conference, Chen Qiming also had another purpose, that is, to call on fans to buy genuine versions.

VCDs are now selling very well around the world, and in response to this, piracy is becoming more and more rampant.

The most widely pirated version is Chen Qiming.

In accordance with the past trend of record distribution sales.

In the weeks following the release of a record, sales generally showed an upward trend, and even if they did, it would usually start to decline a month later, after the market was saturated.

But now, five or six days after the release of his "Star Storm", the sales data has begun to decline sharply.

There must be a reason for market saturation.

But piracy also plays a big part in this.

How popular is his current "Star Storm"!

Walking down the street, almost the entire street is covered with his songs.

If you want to play a song, you have to have a record.

Without a record, it is basically impossible to play.

Now the situation is that most of these guys' records are pirated.

Chen Qiming has encountered his fans more than once with pirated copies to ask him for autographs.

He himself didn't blame these fans, many of them didn't actually know that there was piracy.

When I saw someone selling his records in a street store, I subconsciously thought that I was supporting him by buying them, but I didn't know that Chen Qiming couldn't get a penny of those records at all.

Therefore, this time, Chen Qiming intends to explain the concept of piracy to fans.

There should be a change after 12 o'clock in the evening, but the update may be a little late, please forgive me.
