Qiao Li sat down and just said it was a meeting. Without any more gossip, she pushed the folder away and began to announce last week's sales list.

First, Su Yaqing, 1283187.

Second, He Jingyun, 101827.

Third, Ninglan, 92178.

Fourth, Murphy, 81302.

Fifth, cool is coming, 72109.

Sixth, Cai Kangcheng, 69162.

Seventh, Tao Liang, 67193.

Eighth, Red Tornado, 64281.

Ninth, Li Kai, 63192.

Tenth, Fan Zhilong, 61103.

The names were reported one by one according to the ranking, and everyone's expressions turned to stone little by little. When the tenth place was reported, everyone was stunned!

Li Kai released the album in early February, and the album has been on the market for fifteen or six weeks. Murphy, He Jingyun, and Ning Lan released the album in March and the album has been on the market for more than ten weeks.

Su Yaqing, Tao Liang, Cool Comes In, and Red Tornado have also passed the piracy protection period.

Only Cai Kangcheng and Fan Zhilong are within the piracy protection period.

Cai Kangcheng is a newcomer to Beka Records. In the second week after the album was released, the first hit was a tear-jerking love song, and the second hit was a ballad. Last week, two new songs were recommended on the charts, and the second hit was stopped at the fourth and fifth rounds respectively.

No. 1 hit the sixth round of the Billboard Hot 100, and passed the Golden Songs Chart.

Fan Zhilong's sales were basically the same as last week.

This is not a shocking sales chart, but a shocking sales chart.

Qiao Li took a breath and continued, counting eleven to twenty.

Fan Zhilong, ranked 10th, has sold 61,000 copies, while a quasi-second-tier player ranked 20th has sold 42,000 copies.

There is a difference of ten places, and the difference is less than 20,000 tickets.

Chenguang ranked 13th, with more than 51,000 tickets, a drop of nearly 10% compared to last week.

A quasi-second-tier album released last week. The album will be on sale for 6 days and sales will reach 20,000.

The album, which was highly praised by newcomer Zhao Rui, sold only 14,000 copies within 4 days of its release.

A newcomer at the same time as Chenguang sold more than 15,000 copies last week. It was on the market for 19 days and sold a total of 40,000 copies. There are only 3 days left in the piracy protection period. It is almost certain that there is no hope of passing the 100,000 in March.

There is no dark horse soaring into the sky, no divine suppression, and no piles of bones, but there are wounded everywhere!

From March to now, in just two and a half months, 12 singers under the company have released albums. Except for Ning Lan, the sales of 11 albums are sluggish.

The conference room seemed to be shrouded in a dark cloud.

In the ensuing discussion, the four deputy directors and seven or eight singers expressed their opinions, which were summarized into four reasons.

First, the trend of popular music has changed. Starting from April, there will be at least one to three singers releasing albums every week. The albums will focus on genres other than lyrical slow songs.

Although the ratio is not high, the results achieved are quite impressive.

Among the top ten sales last week, Cai Kangcheng occupied three seats in Red Tornado and Cool Coming.

Second, singers gather together. The number of singers releasing videos every week in April has increased significantly compared with March. In the three weeks since the end of April, the number of singers releasing videos has almost caught up with the total number in April.

Third, the company's singers were targeted by Shuteng Records again and again.

Not one to one, but two to one, or even three to one.

The above three reasons are relatively objective, but the fourth point is a bit superstitious. It was proposed by Tan Guangyue, like a cold joke, with a sense of ridicule.

That is, Li Fan was hidden by the company.

Li Kai joined the company at the end of August last year. Before he was hidden, in September, Li Kai’s single became a hit. In October, Ning Lan’s single became a hit. In December, Tan Guangyue’s album became a hit. In February this year, Li Kai

Zhang's album was a big hit, and in March this year, Ninglan's album was a big hit.

After being hidden, not to mention another hit album, there was not even one album that met expectations.

But it was this fourth reason that caused a series of chain reactions within the company.

After the meeting, Deputy Director Luo came to Qiao Li's office and complained about the cost. In the past, the music department was divided into four small departments. If a singer in the small department broke 400,000 yuan in a single month, there would be an extra reward. This reward

It is not distributed to everyone, but is in the hands of the deputy director to supplement other singers in the small department.

But now, the entire music department is experiencing sluggish sales one after another. Not to mention him, even Qiao Li's additional resources are extremely limited, and those limited additional resources must be given priority to key singers.

As a result, newcomers and third-tier singers will only be stuck with the corresponding fee standards when releasing films, and the chance of achieving expected sales will be greatly reduced.

Qiao Li understood what Deputy Director Lu meant, and he was encouraging her to discuss with the top management, either to allocate additional resources or to lift the ice on Li Fan.

Needless to say, the former needs sufficient food to lead his troops. The latter was more or less inspired by Tan Guangyue. Before Li Kai went into hiding, the company had an album with huge sales almost every month. Once this bonus passed, the other three

Small departments cannot get a share, but now that there is a director, the entire music department can benefit from it.

However, Qiao Li, who knew the inside story well, knew that what Mr. Ren was interested in was Li Fan's transfer penalty, so how could he easily lift Xue Zang?

During lunch, Chen Guang and Chen Qian had a quarrel. They had a fierce quarrel in the cafeteria in front of everyone.

Chen Guang blamed Chen Qian for insisting on releasing the film in advance, and also blamed Chen Qian for being obsessed with things, which offended Li Kai. Now Li Kai's prophecy has come true. It was Chen Qian who ruined him, while Chen Qian scolded Chen Guang for not being a man. Album

The poor sales are entirely her fault.

Finally, Chen Qian ran away crying.

After lunch, a third-tier singer whose film was scheduled to be released this week went to Deputy Director Lu's office and asked to postpone the release of the film. The reason was the first three factors at the meeting. After being rejected one by one by Deputy Director Lu, he directly threw it out.

The fourth factor was revealed, and he made it clear that he would rather believe his words than his words, which made Deputy Director Lu angry almost to death!

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Li Fan was competing on the treadmill in the gym, and Lin Yue and Zhang Wenxin walked over together.

Seeing that the two women were hesitant to speak, Li Fan asked suspiciously: "Sister Lin, do you have something to do with me?"

Lin Yue looked at Li Fan, then at Zhang Wenxin, and then said: "Wenxin's release is this Wednesday, and mine is next Monday, but the current situation is that the company has had eleven consecutive singers with low album sales.

Exceeded expectations, but also much lower... Wen Xin and I discussed it and wanted to postpone the release of the film, what do you think?"

Li Fu snorted: "Sister Lin, what advice can I give you on this matter?"

Lin Yue said: "Asu was originally supposed to release the film in March, weren't you the one who suggested he postpone it?"

Li Huan immediately understood, shook his head and said: "My works have been banned. Singers who release albums in May will definitely not have albums featuring my works."

Zhang Wenxin blinked: "You mean, we should still release the film as scheduled?"

Li Huan has black lines all over his head. How do you understand this?

Seeing the two women looking at him eagerly, as if asking him to give him a correct answer, Li Fan hesitated for a moment, sighed in his heart, and said: "Didn't I say at the meeting that the company's singer was targeted by Suteng Records?

, it’s best to avoid this kind of muzzle.”

The two women looked at each other, hesitated slightly, and nodded slightly.

Before getting off work, the two women went to Gao Dongliang's office...

Tuesday night!

Special training in January, the last batch is over.

Li went to the studio, but to his surprise, except for the three girls, the other male and female singers did not come. It was obvious that he had given up the opportunity to sign a contract.

This time, after listening to the songs recorded by the three girls, it was obvious that they had improved a lot. Li Fan nodded and passed, and then chatted with the three girls for a while.

The name of the group is: Youthful Charm.

The girl with short hair is called You Xiaoxia, who is half a year older than the other two girls. She is the captain. The other two girls are named Liu Susu and Meng Wei.

"Currently, there are very few girl groups in the domestic music scene. In my impression, there are no second-tier ones. Since you have decided to debut with a group, you must be mentally prepared to be the first to try it."

Seeing the three girls nodding their heads with firm eyes, Li Fan continued: "I will make two requests for you. First, as a singer, you must constantly improve your singing skills. Therefore, you cannot let go of your singing practice every day. Second, in addition to

In addition to improving your singing skills, you must also pay special attention to the stage effect of live performances. This is a major advantage of being a girl group. You all have a dance foundation, don't waste it."

Li Fan just clicked on it. He had already explained the details to Ni Houdao, and then handed them the pre-prepared songs.

"One Thousand and One Wishes"

The lyrics of this song are full of girls’ sweet dreams and hopes for the future, which are very consistent with the voices, images, and temperaments of the three women.

After chatting with the three women, Li Fan went to Ni Houdao's office.

"You have a lot of free time. I'm exhausted these days. There are three singers. Now plus a girl group, that's four singers. They all have to release films in June. I'm the only producer in the studio..."

Ni Houdao had a bitter look on his face, and Li Kai patiently listened to his complaints. At the end, he comforted him: "Everything is difficult at the beginning, but those who can do it should work harder."

Ni Houdao rolled his eyes and said immediately: "Are you going to just be a singer for the time being and stop recruiting?"

"Of course I want to recruit."

Li Fan rubbed his forehead with some worry: "At that time, Shen Guanchang gave me the latest two cassettes. The singers in them were not very good, and there were two reluctant ones. Last Sunday night, I went to the bar to listen to them, and I didn't see any of them.

,one..."

As he spoke, he shook his head and continued: "New singers are the blood of a company. They need to be constantly replenished to flow smoothly. Moreover, the risks in the record market have begun to change. It is better than I expected."

It’s much faster.”

Ni Houdao's eyes flashed a few times: "In April, two bands appeared, and in May, a singer appeared again. They are all in genres other than the lyrical slow song genre."

"I have a feeling that in June, there will be an album of non-lyrical slow songs on the market, and in the summer, maybe there will be a climax."
Chapter completed!
