【Asians who made history】

[Crazy, one album and seven songs at the same time hit the billboard]

[A world-class superstar has been born, he is from China]

[Last week's global record sales ranking, "Eternity" led everyone with 3.9 million copies]

A number of first-line media in North America published news related to Chen Qiming after he appeared on the bulletin board.

Of course, there must be black.

The American media is notorious throughout the world.

They have always had no lower limit for advocating freedom.

Even if Chen Qiming's record sales are the best in the world, but he did not reach the first place in North America, he has never scored seven songs on the billboard, becoming a rare superstar in history.

But in the eyes of some newspapers, they still can't get used to Chen Qiming.

Among them, the New York Times, known as one of the three major newspapers in North America, is engaged in the black Chen Qiming.

[A good-for-nothing record, I didn't even hold on for three minutes, I want to ask, can such a record be on the billboard?] And make history! Is it the lowering of the selection criteria for billboards? 】

A news that sprayed "Eternity" uselessly quickly spread in Europe and the United States, and while it was recognized by many sunspots, it also caused dissatisfaction among Chen Qiming's fans.

In order to refute the confrontation with sunspots, Warner Records directly made a street interview video.

"The New York Times will always be like this, no lower limit, no discipline!"

"They're just a bunch of idiots who don't know music!"

"I don't know what other people think, but I love this new record from Jamie Chen so much!"

"I know Engels, who wrote this article, he is a fool, every time a singer makes a song, he will come out and spray feces!"

Warner Records understands marketing and propaganda.

In their opinion, it's better to have black than all praise.

There is conflict, there is heat, and the same is true of news.

When it comes to world-class stars, which is not full of sunspots.

To put it mildly, sometimes, the more people who hack you, the more you can see that you are red.

Look at two Michaels in the United States.

One sings, the other plays basketball.

Both of them are well-known in the United States.

But the one who hacks them......

Michael Jackson in the United States, hacking his people can line up from New York to Los Angeles.

Throughout the United States, all blacks regard him as a traitor, and it has become a trend, a trend, to scold him.

As for Michael Jordan, the same is true of him, who has led the Bulls to a terrifying 72-10 record for unprecedented records this year.

However, Michael Jordan was just as scolded.

There are various reasons for scolding, and there are always changes in the law.

Therefore, for those reports of the black Chen Qiming, Warner Records not only did not stop it, but allowed it to develop, but only guided it to prevent this black from going to the extreme.

And a large number of positive news and bad news have appeared in opposition, and the results are also very satisfying.

In the following week, Chen Qiming's "Eternity" not only sold well, but even the Billboard rankings climbed steadily.

……

5 June 1995.

The attention of the Hong Kong and Taiwan media was all attracted by the news of Teresa Teng's death.

At this time, after two weeks of release, the sales and billboard rankings of "Eternal" ushered in a big explosion again.

In its second week of release, "Eternity" topped the North American sales chart for the first time with a terrifying 2.7 million copies in North America, beating out Canadian singer Alanis Morissette's most successful album "Jagged Little Pill" and the new album of black British singer seal (seal).

On the Billboard, "As Long As You Love Me" and "My Heart Will Go On" continued to make great efforts, directly entering the top 10 on the Billboard.

Among them, "As Long As You Love Me" is the most terrifying, directly hitting the third place and going straight to the championship.

It's clear that this classic song from the Backstreet Boys has exploded into its power and has begun to attack the title.

For the power of the song "As Long As You Love Me", Chen Qiming is not surprised at all.

According to his memory, the song itself is not simple in dreams, and it is the title track of the diamond album of the Backstreet Boys.

What is a Diamond Album?

In North America, there is only one criterion for what can be called a diamond album.

That is, sales of more than 10 million, and only if sales exceed 10 million, can it be called a diamond album.

But any record that can become a diamond album, most of its title songs are popular all over the world.

And Chen Qiming's "As Long As You Love Me" is not fighting alone, and there are six billboard songs behind it.

In this case, it would be strange if it could not challenge for the championship yet.

Of course, it's not 100% to win the championship.

After all, Chen Qiming's current opponent should not be underestimated.

At present, Chen Qiming's biggest opponents in the same period are Canadian female singer Alanis Morissette and British black seal.

According to Chen Qiming's memory in his dream, these two people are not easy to bully.

Alanis Morissette, who is a newcomer to the United States.

But her "Jagged Little Pill" this year was terrifying.

In the dream, the album set a terrifying sales of more than 23 million and was the number one seller in the world in 1995.

The same goes for seal.

In his dream, he won this year's Grammy Best Song and Best Singer.

Both guys' records were released a week or two before Chen Qiming.

At the moment, they are the top two on the billboard.

If Chen Qiming wants to win the championship, he has to kill them again.

And the reason why we need to use "again".

is because on last week's sales list, Chen Qiming has already cut them once.

In order to hit the Billboard championship, Chen Qiming's publicity progress in North America has once again accelerated.

Before, he basically held a two-day book signing.

Now, it's changed to once a day.

Detroit.

The sky is rarely cloudless, and the early morning sun sets to wake up the city.

On the square, the voices of people are boiling, and at a glance, there are crowds.

Marshall pinched his tape and moved slowly with the group.

Glancing at the rest of the group.

Everyone is either vinyl or CD.

He couldn't help but clench his tape.

Taking a deep breath, he threw away the inferiority complex in his heart and moved forward with the group.

He likes Chen Qiming's album very much.

I also like Chen Qiming.

Playing rap in the black community since he was a child and being ostracized by black people made him very aware that it is very difficult to gain recognition in the field that others are good at.

He himself once thought that he shouldn't continue to play rap.

But Chen Qiming's appearance made him more determined to take the path of rap.

Chen Qiming's ability as a Chinese to break through the encirclement with English records in Europe and the United States has fully demonstrated that music does not discriminate between races.

Moreover, the rap of Chen Qiming and Madonna is still popular among black people in Europe and the United States.

Although many black people are scolding, they feel that Chen Qiming is not rapping.

But that couldn't stop the song from going viral.

Marshall is a proud man, especially when it comes to rapping, and since Chen Qiming can make rap songs on the billboard, he believes that as long as he is given the opportunity, then he can also succeed.

Today, Chen Qiming came to Detroit, where he held a book signing.

When Marshall heard the news, he seemed to have come here last night, and slept on the side of the road for the night, just to meet the idol and hope to get his encouragement.

The team moved quickly, and before long, there were few people in front of Marshall.

At this time, he finally saw Chen Qiming.

Very young, about the same age as himself.

He is dressed very fashionably, his hairstyle is very similar to his own, short inches, he gives people a warm feeling when he is not smiling, and he has a ruffian feeling when he smiles.

"Hello!"

Chen Qiming raised his head and looked at the young man in front of him who was about the same age as himself.

For some reason, he always felt that this guy's face was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was for a while.

However, if you can't think of Chen Qiming, you won't think much about it, he has met many such people over the years, and most of them will become celebrities in the future.

Seeing more, he is not surprised.

"Jamie, my name is Marshall Bruce Mathers III, I'm an underground rapper, I like you very much, can you write me a word of encouragement?"

Marshall took a deep breath and said.

"Rap?"

Chen Qiming was a little surprised, white people played rap.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration occurred in his mind, and a figure appeared, overlapping with the figure in front of him.

Eminem!

Chinese fans call it Mu Ye.

The king of American hip-hop, the owner of 230 million record sales, and the king of rap......

As for the different names, Chen Qiming is not surprised.

Almost every singer who debuts will choose a suitable stage name for himself.

For example, Jackie Chan's original name was Chen Gangsheng, and Andy Lau's original name was Liu Furong.

Even himself, when he first signed a contract with Fulong Company, Liu Ciwei asked him if he needed to change his stage name.

Looking at the young man in front of him, Chen Qiming's eyes turned quickly, no wonder he always felt that he was rapping when he listened to this guy.

It turned out to be the king of rap.

On the tape handed over by Marshall, he wrote a sentence in Chinese, "I wish Marshall's musical journey a bright future!" ”

If Chen Qiming writes greetings when signing sales, he mostly writes in Chinese, which is a little careful thinking of him.

"Thank you! Thank you! ”

Marshall glanced at the tape, and although he couldn't read the text on it, he felt so cool, and when he took it, he immediately thanked it.

"I set up a record production company in Los Angeles, and if you're confident in your abilities, you can come and audition.

If I pass the audition, I'll try to create a record for you! ”

When Marshall was about to leave, Chen Qiming suddenly opened his mouth and handed him a business card.

Looking at the business card in his hand, Marshall was stunned.

Opportunity!

The legendary opportunity appeared in front of him.

However, he was a little puzzled, "I don't understand, why do you think I can?" Just because I'm a fan of yours? ”

Marshall is not brainless.

If Chen Qiming didn't say why, he would definitely not go.

He is afraid that he will not meet Huaicai, but he is even more afraid of being deceived.

Wouldn't a big star deceive?

No! It's more convenient for big stars to deceive people.

"Brother, I also play hip-hop, you speak in a tone like rap, I think, as long as you are not too bad, you should be very talented in this area."

Chen Qiming explained with a smile.

He is not telling a lie, but is true.

Marshall's hip-hop tone when he spoke was very strong, and people could feel his hip-hop talent right away.
