Chapter 241: MTV Play
"Chinese Singers Shine in Times Square"
Chen from the East
"After Bruce Lee, the Chinese have a shocking existence again"
"The Throat Kissed by an Angel"
The next day, the local media in New York and the media invited by Warner made a lot of reports on Chen Qiming's free tour.
This free tour is not only very shocking, but Chen Qiming's singing has successfully left a very deep impact on the audience and reporters.
Three songs that can be called hit hits ignited the audience directly.
In addition, a repeat version of "500 Miles", which can be called a classic, made the audience even more fascinated.
So, the next day, the media collectively began to publicize Chen Qiming's performance.
Chen Qiming's recent popularity in the United States has been quite high, and this tour has attracted some attention, which directly made Chen Qiming's statement in the American music scene loud.
If you are famous, you will have popularity, and if you are popular, record sales will explode, and after record sales explode, any surrounding goods will rise as a result.
MTV in the United States smelled the opportunity, and the next day he personally found Chen Qiming and Warner Records, and paid $300,000 to buy the right to broadcast the video of last night's performance.
Video, this is a must-have for every large-scale performance after Chen Qiming became popular in Asia.
When I was in Asia, this work was always carried out by a special person sent by Fulong Company.
After arriving in Europe and the United States, Fulong Company negotiated with Warner Records and handed over this task to Warner Records.
During this tour in the United States, every two to three shows, Warner Records would make a video.
Don't underestimate these performance videos, these things are also money, and the income is not low.
Last year, Chen Qiming's global tour concert was bought by China Television for 50 million Taiwan dollars.
The TV broadcast rights of this round of concerts directly made Warner Records make a lot of money.
Because of this big profit, Chen Qiming's TV broadcast rights for the next round of concerts have now attracted the attention of almost all TV stations in Asia.
They began to contact Chen Qiming frequently, wanting to win the exclusive broadcast or simulcast rights.
Among them, Singapore TV even shouted an offer of 10 million Singapore dollars.
The Singapore dollar is not the Taiwan dollar.
The Singapore dollar is very valuable.
One Singapore dollar can be exchanged for five yuan, nine to ten Hong Kong dollars, and as for the Taiwan dollar, it has reached an astonishing twenty yuan.
At this exchange rate, S$10 million is worth more than NT$200 million.
Compared with the previous round, this price has directly increased by four or five times.
Naturally, there are not many reasons, this year's Chen Qiming is more fierce and more appealing.
The popularity of "Storm of Stars" in Asia has not only brought Chen Qiming sales, but also huge commercial value.
Since May, Chan Kai Ming's commercial performance fees have reached a staggering one million Hong Kong dollars.
Because the price is too high, there are no commercial performances looking for him now.
However, the absence of commercial performances does not mean that his income has become lower.
On the contrary, his income became higher.
The reason for this comes from endorsements, because of the increase in commercial value, his current endorsement fees have also ushered in a huge explosion.
An advertisement is two or three million Hong Kong dollars, and the exclusive endorsement is about five million a year.
At present, he has a total of six endorsements on him, including gold necklaces, sports cars, and clothing.
These endorsements have brought him a total of nearly 30 million in income.
It is precisely because of the high commercial value and popularity.
Therefore, Chen Qiming's performance videos are not worried about sales in Asia.
Last year, more than half a million videos of his performances were sold in the market.
The popularity of the video tape market has made companies such as Fulong Warner also attach great importance to Chen Qiming's performance video.
So there is a reason why he has to be filmed almost every few performances.
$300,000 to buy TV broadcast rights, which is not a loss for Chen Qiming's side.
In addition, this is an important time to promote Chen Qiming.
Therefore, the two sides hit it off and finalized this cooperation.
As soon as the cooperation was finalized, after MTV got the video master tape, as soon as it returned to MTV, the video tape of the performance was broadcast in prime time at 8 o'clock that night.
MTV was founded on August 1, 1981 and is the world's largest MTV station.
The so-called MTV refers to the MV.
Of course, this TV station doesn't just show music videos.
In addition to the latest popular music videos, you can also see young VJs, music-related news and entertainment programs on MTV.
The station is one of the biggest ways for American singers to promote their songs.
As long as you appear on this TV station, not to mention that everyone in Europe and the United States will know about you, but at least, there will be many young people who will know you because of this.
Chen Qiming this time is no exception.
When the video of the show landed on MTV, it immediately attracted a huge amount of attention across the United States.
Many American fans who have heard his three songs and don't know him yet took the opportunity to see him on TV and were amazed.
I was amazed that he could sing such a good English song as an Asian.
At the same time, with the help of MTV's TV broadcast, Chen Qiming's performance on the performance also made a large number of American fans fully aware of Chen Qiming's singing skills.
Especially the repetition of the song "500 Miles".
Chen Qiming's clean and gentle voice directly conquered a large number of fans.
The day after the video of the show aired, Warner Records received numerous letters from fans.
Without exception, these letters were all in the hope that Chen Qiming would be able to make a record of his re-singing and alterations of "Five Hundred Miles".
Influenced by these letters, Warner Records immediately contacted The Journeymen and bought the cover rights for 500 Miles.
And let Chen Qiming start recording this song here.
The song "Five Hundred Miles" is not very difficult to sing, and the most difficult thing is to sing it with emotion.
And Chen Qiming is definitely very vocal in this regard.
Since becoming a singer, he has discovered that he is very good at lyrical songs.
This is also the reason why when he sang the song "Five Hundred Miles" for the first time, he was able to directly infect the fans and audiences.
Because the song is not difficult, plus the accompaniment of this song can even be solved directly with the guitar.
Therefore, it didn't take much time to record this song.
In just two days, he recorded the song in its entirety and handed it over to Warner Records for release.
Because this song itself is not Chen Qiming's song, he is only responsible for adapting and singing.
In addition, only one song could not be released into a record, so the song was not made into a separate record, but was included in the star collection released by Warner Records this year.
The so-called star collection is actually Warner Records allows its singers to gather together, sing together, or sing songs alone and put them on a record for release.
A star-studded record like this is generally a bestseller and will be favored by many fans.
