Chapter 295: Tired, Destroy
Although most people are like a mirror in their hearts, it is absolutely impossible for the DC editorial department to ignore Zhou Yi or even Zhou Yi's suggestion.
But they rushed anyway.
There is no other reason, watch the fun!
Since the beginning of the new century, the intensity of the American music scene has declined to a great extent compared with the past.
In the late 90s and early millennium, the new generation of singers who rose in these two periods began to gradually seize the right to speak for the old singers, and Mariah Carey is a typical representative of the power grabbed.
In terms of male singers, even if they are as strong as Michael Jackson, they inevitably show signs of obsession.
And this group of newly rising singers, the current intersection and dirtiness with each other are not complicated to the point of being addictive, which directly leads to the fact that there are not as many tears as before.
It is precisely because of this that Eminem, who has had a wealth of experience in fighting the streets since he was a child, finally woke up after growing up and experiencing failures and blows again and again-
In grief and indignation, he reviewed the past failed cases, began to integrate existing resources, and immersed himself in studying a new style of play suitable for himself.
Then, the enlightenment was successful, and the makeover was born, and it opened up a new track with its unique technical stream hardcore rap - who to catch and scold whom, relying on touching porcelain to quickly open up fame, improve coffee position, and rely on his top talent to take over the wealth and wealth that came from touching porcelain, and gain a firm foothold in the music world.
This set of combos came down, and the food was full of money.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Eminem scolded Mariah Carey this time, in addition to venting his anger, there is a high probability that he will step on this top diva to improve his coffee position.
But Mariah Carey's policy of non-response disappointed everyone who was expecting them to fight.
I thought it would be no fun to watch, but I didn't expect that after Zhou Yi appeared, Maria Carey changed her tone and began to take the initiative to praise Zhou Yi, and even took the initiative to leave the game for Zhou Yi.
"It's just nonsense."
I didn't do anything, and I was inexplicably involved in this dispute.,The DC editorial department is also a little crying and laughing at the moment.,And online voting and petitioning.,You can think of this thing.,It's really a fucking talent.。
"The heat is quite high, and it completely crushes Eminem. The people who planned this marketing were very knowledgeable about the Internet, but they didn't know who wrote Spike's illustrated blog post. ”
It's not without discerning people inside DC.
Although they are better at paper publications, they are not unaware of the Internet.
After this marketing, the most obvious benefit is Zhou Yi. It was impossible for his album sales to continue to break one million in the second week, but it attracted more people to buy it with the hype.
Now he is stepping on Eminem to expand this matter into a carnival in the online world, so that a group of passers-by who have money, energy, more time, and more acceptance of new things can hear Zhou Yi's song and expand the source of sales.
Originally, the attention of the tearing war was high, not to mention the basic plate of passers-by, not to mention the work done by Zhou Yi, even their group of old fritters were amazed.
"The only marketing plan in the world, find out who wrote this blog post for Spike."
The head of DC Comics is also interested.
Strictly speaking, they can be regarded as enjoying the benefits of this wave of large-scale memes, and this blog post is definitely a marketing technique worth appreciating repeatedly.
Because it is the aggression and fun contained in it that the core of this Internet carnival has been created, and countless creative netizens can participate in it.
This is clearly prepared.
Eminem, who spoke out in the traditional media, was caught off guard and lost directly.
Perhaps the only thing to be thankful for is that the sales of his albums have already fallen, but with this wave of popularity, they have begun to pick up.
Whether it is on the radio or offline sales charts, the data recovery of the song "Without Me" allowed him to maintain the runner-up position on the B list after changing the charts.
In terms of Zhou Yi, after entering the top 10 on the Billboard, the potential of "yes" has been completely unleashed-
On July 18th, the song's surge in data made everyone in the industry cry out incredible, and it topped the radio charts in nearly 40 states in the United States!
At the same time, after two weeks of explosive word-of-mouth fermentation, the two songs "Baby" and "Good time" have also begun to spread their influence to the outside world.
According to Warner's statistics, in the United States, the number of hardcover sales of "The Attitude Show" actually exceeded that of the full-cover version.
"I'm a good girl, it's too fast."
Qian Jiang, who had already begun to imagine the double champion, looked at the feedback summary of yesterday's various data, and wiped the cold sweat that did not exist on his forehead.
Zhou Yi, who was calm, stood by the floor-to-ceiling window of the lounge, with one hand in his pocket, shaking a champagne slightly, overlooking the bustling city at his feet, with a smile in the corner of his eyes: "That's the case, I haven't been in the United States for a long time, so I have to be drugged."
"Eminem must be unhappy with me now, but seeing that his own record sales are also picking up, he can only suffer this dumb loss, and he can't and can't send new songs to disses me.
"Because once a new single Diss me is released, the attention and sales of the new single will inevitably affect his album. Whoever earns more albums and singles, he still has a rod and scale in his heart. ”
This group of people looks reckless and impulsive on the surface, but when it comes to making money, one is more sophisticated than the other.
As for whether he will release a single diss himself after another month or two of the golden period of album sales has passed, it doesn't matter, anyway, he can release it then, and by the way, he can blow up another wave of sales.
Canibus, who will scare Eminem so hard that he can only quit in the future, has two songs to prepare.
"PHD" and "U Didn't Care", two diss songs that name Eminem with full firepower, can basically be used by changing a few words and names.
"Oh yes, Maria Kelly asked you to meet, saying she wanted to get to know you, and it is estimated that she was shocked by this wave of marketing effects."
Saying that, Qian Jiang also handed over a business card for someone - bronzing, which looked very high-end.
Zhou Yi, who glanced back, pinched it in his hand with interest, and after thinking for a while, the corners of his mouth raised a touch of playfulness.
As the two most powerful male and female singers at the moment, the meeting between the two does not seem to hide the meaning of the media.
So much so that when Zhou Yi, who was sitting by the window of the hotel box, looked out, he could still see the paparazzi's camera shooting towards him from time to time.
However, since Maria Carey didn't take it seriously, he naturally didn't bother to bother with this idleness, but instead had a good time with Mariah Carey, and the atmosphere was hot.
"Well, to be honest, you are very different from the Chinese singers I remember. Mike once told me that he had met a singer from China at the World Music Awards and he was very humble. ”
Under the magnificent lights, the two of them chatted very well.
32-year-old Mariah Carey is at the end of her peak as a "flower butterfly", and the hot coffee bandeau dress award shows off her figure.
After coming to the United States, there has been little amusement, although Zhou Yi personally thinks that Maria Carey's appearance is quite average, but in terms of the gratitude he is willing to express, he thinks that this woman is really interesting.
After all, she perfectly implements the credo that "to say thank you is to show your breasts", especially when leaning over and bowing her head.
Don't think that European and American women are full of good figures, that's pure stereotype.
Not to mention that this is still a real top diva in Europe and the United States, with a star halo bonus.
"Actually, I can be very humble, as long as I don't mess with me."
Zhou Yi, who was relieved of the champagne, pretended to shrug his shoulders helplessly: "Everyone who knows me knows that I am actually quite elegant and easy-going." ”
"Elegant and easy-going? You? ”
As if amused, Maria Carey laughed while her upper body leaned back - under the table, her upturned right leg accidentally scratched Zhou Yi's calf several times in a row.
Well, accidentally.
"Really, that's what people who really know me say."
Zhou Yi, who had a little banter between his eyebrows, started a family routine with this sister with great interest.
Following.
Eminem, who was forced by his teacher not to make a single for the time being, saw a message in the newspaper that made him scold Bichi-
Spike's Victory! Eminem is defeated! 》
The Butterfly Flies into Spike's Hands! 》
The pictures are all Zhou Yi and Mariah Carey chatting while eating last night, and they talked happily.
After eating, the two who were about to separate even waved their hands to the camera in a friendly manner, and everyone could see what it meant.
"Yes, I had dinner with Spike last night. He made a good impression on me, and his ideas were very wild.
"I guess that's why he's so popular in Asia, in the UK, a funny man is better than a boring man, isn't it?"
On the 20th, amid the overwhelming rumors of a relationship, Maria Carey personally came forward for an interview, denying the relationship and praising Zhou Yi: "It is impossible for me and Spike to fall in love, please don't write this nonsense, we are just good friends."
"As the Galway girl, Kelly Brooke, said, Spike really fulfilled all my imagination of a man. If I were his age, I think I'd be desperate to chase him. ”
At the same time, she also revealed her favorite song from Zhou Yi's album - "Because of you"
Later, affected by the scandal, Zhou Yi's "Because of you" also improved by leaps and bounds in real-time radio data, and the happy Warners grinned from top to bottom.
Sometimes it's not a good thing to have too many Wang Bang in an album, and if it weren't for the fact that the three songs with the most momentum have been screened out, they really don't know which songs to put their main resources in.
It's just that when the stamina of the song "Because of you" began to ferment, the data of various changes made Warner collectively dumbfounded-
No, why is this song going to explode?!
After Zhou Yi was interviewed by Time Magazine, on July 23, the day when the B list was updated again-
Under the gaze of the national music scene, the No. 1 song on the B chart has become ...... "yes"!
"Singles chart No. 1 "yes", Spike's first No. 1 single was born! The previous "The lazy song" was only the runner-up. ”
"Wait a minute, this first thirty...... Spike's new song is all in?! ”
Under the continuous high popularity, after the third week of release, Zhou Yi began to reproduce the signs of his dominance in the Chinese music scene-
"yes" jumped all the way up from last week's eighth to overtake Eminem's "Without Me" and officially topped the top!
Fans who had expected this result were not surprised.
After all, the popularity of "yes" is now heard everywhere on the streets and alleys, and it is a frequent visitor to various bars and nightclubs.
To their surprise, the album "The Attitude Show" counted the one with more hardcover versions, a total of twelve songs.
And now, except for two old songs, the other new songs are all fucking in the top 30?!
One person alone occupies one-third of the top 30 on the B list?!
"yes" topped the list, "Baby" stuck in eighth, and "Good Time" ranked 11th;
"Galway Girl", "Because of you", "What makes You Beautiful", and "How long" ranked 14th, 17th, 23rd, and 25th respectively
The remaining three songs, "One thing", "DJ Got Us Fallin' in Love", and "Rude", were just in the goalkeeper - 28th, 29th, and 30th respectively.
"Incredible! Unbelievable! I couldn't believe my eyes! This is a miracle that has never been achieved in the history of American music! ”
"If I were Warner, I would love to turn back time now and hold Zhou Yi's hand in writing songs and releasing albums!"
"This is terrifying, I am actually beating myself on the B list, this internal friction is too serious, and Warner's publicity resources are seriously wasted!"
"Don't look at the singles, look at the album charts, Spike is fucking winning again! God, three consecutive championships, his weekly sales this week are more than 930,000 copies, and the total sales in North America in three weeks have exceeded three million! It's horrible! ”
After Warner's marketing was unlimited, Zhou Yi's album, which can be called a supergod in terms of quality and popularity, directly blew up the entire American music scene, and gave the United States a little Wang Bang shock!
The little Canadian punk witch who thought that the single "Complicated" could break into the top 15 as expected, rolled her eyes and shook her guitar after seeing the new ranking freshly released-
"Complicated", No. 31 on the B list......
Tired, destroy.
Don't want to play anymore!
As far as Nima is outrageous!!
What the hell is this Spike! Do you post a song like that?!
I'll see which songs you're going to focus on next!
Avril, who had already gritted her teeth against Zhou Yi before they had met, soon received good news-
Spike is returning home.
Because it was time for the first concert, Spike had to go back home.
"Good! Open Champagne! ”
During this time, it was true that Avril Lavigne, who had been numbed by Zhou Yi's endless marketing, suddenly regained her confidence.
Zhou Yi is no longer in the United States, so it's impossible to stop her, right?
On July 23, 2002, with the harvest in the United States, Zhou Yi returned with a full load and was directly opened by Sohu on the homepage of the portal website "Zhou Yi Trip to the United States" -
"The Man Who Made the History of Chinese Singers"!"
