Chapter 314: Seven Songs Hit the Billboard at the Same Time
Just when Romani didn't want to hack a classic record, in other parts of the United States, at this time, countless media people also listened to Chen Qiming's new record.
In the same way that Romani thinks the record is a classic, many people with professional musical knowledge agree.
Among them, there is an existence that countless people in the United States are crazy about.
Michael jackson.
Chen Qiming's "Lonely" was at the top of the overall radio charts, causing a lot of uproar in North America.
attracted a large number of media and music industry practitioners to conclude that Chen Qiming had swiped the on-demand data.
These news spread so much that not only a large number of people knew about it, but even Michael Jackson heard about it.
Compared with the jealousy of other North American singers, Michael Jackson is one of the North American singers who know Chen Qiming best because he often goes to Asia.
Michael still remembers traveling to Asia, where the streets were littered with posters of Chen Qiming and songs playing.
It can be said that in Asia, even he, the world's popular king, can only be said to be on par with Chen Qiming in terms of popularity, but he does not dare to say that his ability is superior to him.
Because of this, he didn't quite believe that Chen Qiming would swipe the ticket.
In addition, add a little bit of the psychology of seeing them as opponents.
As soon as Chen Qiming's record was released, Michael Jackson bought Chen Qiming's record.
When he listened.
Michael Jackson was silent.
From his point of view, some of the songs on this record are actually more of a saliva genre.
But again, there are songs that he likes very much.
"My Heart Is Eternal".
He liked the song very much.
In his opinion, this song is definitely a classic song that can be called a classic in the ranks of classics.
In addition, from the perspective of popularity, he also feels that Chen Qiming's record may set off a storm in the market.
So, after listening to the record, Michael was silent.
If he paid attention to Chen Qiming before, the main reason was only because of his popularity in Asia.
So now, this record made him realize that Chen Qiming may not be as simple as Dongfang Michael, if Chen Qiming continues to maintain the level of this record.
So, the position of the most popular male singer in the world is probably ......
……
A song wants to become popular quickly, it is simple to say, and complex is complicated.
Perhaps in this era, the speed of song transmission may not be as fast as in the future of dreams.
But as long as the resources are sufficient, it is actually a very simple thing to become popular.
The new record "Eternity" is not only valued by Chen Qiming himself, but also by Warner Records.
So after the release of the record, all kinds of promotional resources were immediately poured into this album.
Each of the 50 states has its own radio station.
Some of them have a monopoly in their state, and some of them compete with other radio stations.
There is no doubt that these radio stations, which have a good influence in their respective states and cities, have received a boost from Warner Records.
Radio promotion is undoubtedly the most important direction of record promotion in the current era.
If print media publicity determines the lower limit of records, then radio publicity is an important channel that determines the upper limit of record sales.
And when Warner Records spent money, found connections, and used various methods to make Chen Qiming's new record promoted by major radio stations, this classic record that was valued by Chen Qiming and Warner finally exerted its due power.
Several of the new songs in Chen Qiming's new album began to be known to listeners immediately after they were promoted.
Of course, because the United States is a multi-ethnic and mixed country, the different cultures also make the popularity of different songs different among different ethnic groups.
For example, "Lonely" has a very strong rap color difference, so he is most popular in cities with large black communities, such as New York, Chicago, and Detroit.
Then there's "My Heart Will Go On," a country piece that is most popular among middle-aged people and not so popular among teenagers.
Among them, the most popular song is undoubtedly "As Long As You Love Me".
This song is very popular among teenagers, and students from major colleges and universities are the audience of this song.
The youth group is undoubtedly the largest.
They are not like middle-aged people who need to give up all kinds of entertainment in order to live.
Seventeen or eighteen years old is rebellious, pursuing the existence of fashion culture.
Obviously, Chen Qiming's record is a record that leans towards this group.
And with a huge group of teenagers, the song "As Long As You Love Me" has also become the first song in Chen Qiming's album to become popular.
After the album was released, it was widely sung throughout the United States.
On the radio charts in various states, the song has skyrocketed at an extremely frantic rate.
In just four days.
On the radio charts of 50 states in the United States, on 27 lists, Chen Qiming's song "As Long As You Love Me" has reached the top five.
Among them, there are several states, and this song has directly reached the champion position.
The speed at which this song became popular is simply extremely fast.
Before countless media people who were preparing to hack Chen Qiming could react, the song quickly became popular across the United States.
And when the song becomes popular, naturally, record sales will be driven by it.
Many people who hear songs on the radio go to video stores to buy records.
This is also the main role of radio propaganda.
Radio is not the online music platform of dreams.
Radio on-demand songs aren't for you to listen to.
During this period, you need to make a call to the station, and then the radio host will play it one by one according to the order of on-demand.
It can be said that listening to songs on the radio is very troublesome, and many people just use the radio as a channel to follow the news and follow new songs.
As long as they find a good song on the radio, listeners will go to offline video stores to buy the record.
Compared with the lack of freedom to listen to songs on the radio, it is obviously more convenient to buy a record by yourself and listen to it as you want in your Walkman.
So by the time "As Long As You Love Me" skyrocketed on the radio charts, many listeners had already taken action and bought the record at the video store.
In addition, the audience of the previous "Lonely", the theme song of the World Championships "Dream It Possible" and the theme song of the Red Fan Zone "My Songs Know What You Did in the Dark".
In just a few days, the sales of the record "Eternity" skyrocketed.
From 210,000 on the first day, 270,000 on the second day, 310,000 on the third day, and 350,000 on the fourth day......
A week went by in the blink of an eye.
And when the second week came, after the announcement of the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart and record sales chart, the whole Europe and the United States suddenly boiled.
Billboard Singles Hot 100:
No. 93: "My Songs Know What You Did in the Dark" (Red Fan Zone Theme Song) - Chen Qiming.
Seventy-two: "What Are Words" - Chen Qiming.
Fifty-one: "Dream It Possible" (World Championships Theme Song) - Chen Qiming.
Thirty-ninth: "Lonely" - Chen Qiming.
Twenty-eighth: "One Love" - Chen Qiming.
Nineteenth: "My Heart Will Go On" - Chen Qiming.
Tenth: "As Long As You Love Me" - Chen Qiming.
When the list of the Billboard Hot 100 singles was announced, the entire North American media instantly lost their voice.
There are as many as seven songs on the single album at the same time, and he is also Asian.
What is this concept?
You must know that the singer with the most songs on the list at the same time on a single album is Madonna, with thirteen songs.
And Chen Qiming has seven songs on the list at the same time, although he did not break the record, but he succeeded in the top five, just in the fifth.
If it had been a white man who had done this, I am afraid it would not have caused such a big sensation.
But, but Chen Qiming is a yellow race! He is also a foreign singer from China.
In a place where the entire yellow race in the United States is generally discriminated against, Chen Qiming's achievement is nothing short of a miracle.
In addition, this is not the only achievement of Chen Qiming's album.
Airborne TOP10!
Yes, it's the airborne TOP10.
This is definitely an achievement to be proud of.
Because at present, the existence of the top 10 who can be airborne is all the top singers in the European and American music scene.
For example, Michael, Madonna, Queen, etc. are popular all over the world.
And now, one more person will be added to this, a Chinese.
Not to mention the rest, with this achievement, even if Chen Qiming retires tomorrow, Chen Qiming will definitely have a pivotal position when his fans talk about historical status in the future.
At the very least, in the history of the Chinese music scene, he has pushed his historical status up further, and it is even enough to be compared with the existence of Europe and the United States that lead an era.
And that's not all.
On the album sales chart published by Billboard.
Chen Qiming landed third with a data of 1.8 million in a single week in North America.
My goodness!
An Asian has achieved the top 10 of the North American sales list, which is still the third in horror.
This data caused a sensation not only in North America, but also in Asia on the other side of the ocean.
On the side of Hong Kong and Taiwan, the media collectively bombarded with headlines, and all the front pages of the media were full of Chen Qiming's bulletin board data.
Chen Qiming's fans now almost understand the awesomeness of billboards.
As a result, when the data from the billboard reached RTHK, his fans would take to the streets on a large scale to celebrate his achievements.
Among them, the most noteworthy is that in Singapore, there is a rich second generation named Lin Junjie who directly spent a lot of Singapore dollars to buy a large number of fireworks, making Singapore that night directly become a sea of fireworks.
After the Billboard singles chart and sales chart were listed, the European and American media collectively lost their voices.
Those newspapers that were still hacking Chen Qiming silently withdrew one after another of Hei Chen Qiming's articles.
Even the European and American singers who said that Chen Qiming brushed the data, when they were asked by the reporter again whether they insisted that Chen Qiming brushed the data, they held back for a long time, and finally replied:
"I'll admit, there's something about this Asian!"
