Chapter 289: Build the plank road openly, secretly attack Chencang
In one week of album sales in the Mainland, digital album sales reached 8.53 million copies, fully meeting expectations, which also shows that the early promotion was very good.
The physical album sold 500,000 copies in the first week, and they were sold out within three days. The record factory once again recorded 500,000 copies and put them on the market. This time it will not be so crazy and can be sold for a long time.
The marketing department of Fantasy Records made a prediction and believed that this album could sell about 1.5 million physical copies, which is a very good result.
Afterwards, Hong Kong Island, Japan, South Korea, Southeast Asia and other regions, under the coordination of Sony Music, also began to release albums one after another.
However, due to the banning order, Li Hyuk's new album has not been able to enter the Baodao record market for the first time. However, this will not be a problem for Baodao fans. Restricting Li Hyuk's records cannot restrict us!
As a result, Baodao set off a craze of traveling to the mainland, Hong Kong Island, and even Japan and South Korea. Most of them were fans of Li Hyuk.
How great would it be to buy an album and travel while traveling...
There are also smart people who secretly came up with the idea of purchasing on behalf of others, taking a batch of albums from the mainland and transporting them back to the treasure island for sale.
After a lot of trouble, Baodao Customs actually uncovered several cases of Li Hyuk's album smuggling, which made many netizens laugh out loud and call Baodao compatriots talented.
However, Baodao compatriots have another channel, that is, they can listen to it through Apple Music.
Logically speaking, Apple Music is also within the scope of the ban, but Apple is America's company, and the authorities don't dare to offend her father's company, so they have no choice but to turn a blind eye.
In this way, although Li Hyuk's album was officially banned from being released in Baodao, the actual damage was done to Baodao's local record distribution agents. The fans were not affected and continued to listen to the music.
As a result, this banning order was as if it was a fiction and had no effect. Later, the superior department of the Golden Melody Awards had to secretly withdraw the banning order, leaving the Golden Melody Awards to continue to ban Li Hyuk out of face.
Sure enough, when music is done well, it is always pervasive and cannot be blocked even if you want to.
So one week after the album was released in other regions, it was successfully released in the Baodao region. Perhaps because it had been suppressed for too long before, it actually created a sales volume of 300,000 physical albums in a week, ranking among the single-week sales in the Baodao region.
Three hundred thousand copies can compete for the annual crown, but this is just one week's sales.
However, after the initial retaliatory consumption, fans will later return to calm down and sales will not be so exaggerated.
Now walking on the streets of Baodao City, you can see the Golden Melody Awards judges calling for a boycott of Lee Hyuk on a TV show, and then the shops on the street play "Sunny Day" by Lee Hyuk, forming a strange and harmonious picture, very
good.
After the album was released, Lee Hyuk did not have nothing to do. He also had to appear on several variety shows to continue to promote the album.
Various interview programs recorded in the early stage of Li Hyuk's album promotion have also been broadcast one after another, among which the main station's "Let's Talk" undoubtedly attracted the most attention.
In the show, Li Hyuk shared his journey and growth story, which no one cared about. The most concerned thing was that a representative named Ma Yi gave Li Hyuk a hard time in public, thinking that rap was vulgar and violent.
As a result, Li Hyuk took a guitar and immediately created a live composition, a rap with fresh and beautiful lyrics that made people jump.
This segment was edited by netizens and posted online for repeated viewing.
"I have to say that other rappers are terrible, but Li Hyuk is really good. Is this lyrics poetry?"
"Lee Hyuk's lyrics are already very good, as you can see by watching "Dongfeng Po"."
"Is there something wrong with Ma Yi? He can't listen to music seriously?"
"Is it possible that he couldn't hear the lyrics that Li Hyuk sang clearly, and he didn't read the lyrics."
"These days, everyone is questioning everything. It's really a joke for an unprofessional person to question a professional and the top creative person in the industry."
The comments from netizens were overwhelming. While they were full of praise for the lyrics written by Li Hyuk, they also criticized Ma Yi. Even his Weibo was found, and all kinds of remarks about cerebral palsy were revealed and then reviled.
Ma Yi was depressed, so he posted a short essay on Weibo about being scolded by netizens for being depressed, hoping to gain sympathy. However, most netizens were not merciful at all, and instead scolded him for what he deserved.
That's right, since you choose to have porcelain, you must be prepared to bear the consequences.
The name Li Hyuk is not just him, there are tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of fans behind him, and he is a giant in the entertainment and recording industry.
Although the giants are a bit excessive, Fantasy Records, which has gathered shares from several large companies such as Penguin, NetEase, and Mobile, is indeed the most promising recording industry giant in China.
In addition, there are many brands that cooperate with Li Hyuk for endorsements, etc. With Li Hyuk taking charge, how can the interested parties behind them let go of those who come to seek trouble?
Protecting Li He means protecting their own interests. This is a matter of no exchange.
Mosliyan yogurt has made a lot of money this time. It was still in the promotion and operation stage. Essentially, Li Hyuk violated the terms of the contract by leaking it on the show in advance. After all, it was exposed in advance.
However, the effect of this wave of publicity was even better than the publicity plan prepared by Moslian's own planning department. The company did not care about this trivial matter and immediately changed its publicity strategy.
So Li He took the time to shoot two more commercials for Moslian yogurt with Yang Zi, a short commercial and an MV commercial based on the song "Handwritten Once Upon a Time".
The advertisement was produced at an extremely fast speed and then released, and Li Hyuk also cooperated in recording a single and released it on digital platforms.
So the audience saw a 30-second short commercial on TV, a more than four-minute MV commercial online, and then heard the song "Handwritten Once Upon a Time" on the music platform.
Fans also heard the complete part of Li Hyuk's rap, which was just one word: beautiful.
Some fans think this is the most beautiful rap he has ever heard. In the past, he thought rap music was annoying, even if it came from Li Hyuk. But after listening to this song, he immediately felt different and his impression changed a lot.
However, not everyone has a favorable impression of this song. The special ones are the singers in the rap circle.
Once again, the rappers criticized the song "Handwritten Once Upon a Time" from various angles, believing that Li Hyuk had completely lost the essence of hip-hop culture.
Li Hyuk is also speechless. Do these rappers who co-write only listen to his raps and hip-hop songs?
Different from "Handwritten Once Upon a Time", "Coward" has received unanimous praise from the rap circle, who believe that this song well reflects the culture of freedom.
Li He was even more speechless. You can do it, but don’t take me with you. The purpose of my writing this song is to promote the ban on sex, not to promote the good of smoking. And I am also the ambassador of China’s ban on sex. You are not taking me with you.
Roast over the fire?
Even more speechless things are yet to come. In "China's New Rap", several contestants who pride themselves on their rap attitude directly dissed Li He during the performance. Li He's good friend Deng Ziqi couldn't stand it and asked these contestants what they meant.
As a result, the contestants even scolded Deng Ziqi and the instructor. Their attitude was too bad, and they were naturally eliminated by the program team without mercy.
However, after these players were eliminated, they were not ashamed but proud. It felt like they had won a battle. They publicized it everywhere and once again made Deng Ziqi almost mad to death.
Of course, Li Hyuk couldn't watch his good friends being wronged, so he decided to go on the show to teach these little bastards a profound lesson.
I had a terrible headache. I was busy with the funeral and communicating with the store on the phone at the same time. I wished I could separate the two halves, no, three halves.
Half of the time I was busy with the work in the store, while I was busy with the funeral, and at the same time I was writing a novel, enjoying myself...
