A successful record, in addition to its own quality, is also inseparable from excellent commercial promotion.
The "Jay" album sold well at the end of last year. It was because of previous plagiarism and plagiarism and other negative and positive controversies that the album received good market response and became a great success.
You must know that according to previous predictions, "Jay" can sell about 800,000 copies, which is already an excellent figure.
However, as of January 10, the "Jay" album sales have reached 1.45 million copies in the mainland, and more than 130,000 copies in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
Now, Sony Music has used an excellent marketing tool to teach Fantasy Studio a lesson on how formal album marketing work is done.
During the overseas marketing period, there was also good news.
On January 5, "Forbes" magazine released a list of "The Thirty Most Potential Outstanding Musicians in the World Under Thirty Years Old", and Li He and Deng Ziqi became the only two Chinese-speaking musicians selected.
As soon as the list came out, fans of Yuan Hua and Hua Chenyu were not happy.
Yuan Hua's fans are somewhat unreasonable. After all, apart from his fans, not many people know about Yuan Hua's songs, and he did not compose them himself.
The reason why Hua Chenyu's fans are unhappy is that Hua Chenyu is a singer-songwriter and was not selected, which makes the fans very unconvinced.
Forget about Deng Ziqi, after all, he became famous early, and there were scandals between Deng Ziqi and Hua Chenyu.
But Li Hyuk only debuted for half a year and released one album. Why did he beat Hua Chenyu to be included in this list?
Li Hyuk’s fans are not happy either. You Hua Chenyu has originality, but your songs are not as good as those written by Li Hyuk!
And judging from the technique of composing lyrics and composing music, Li Hyuk is undoubtedly superior.
Fans from both sides were dissatisfied with each other and started a scolding war. This has become the norm since the rise of fan culture.
Li He and Hua Chenyu both had a tacit understanding and did not participate. When the media asked about this matter, they both praised each other as excellent musicians, creating a feeling of sympathy for each other.
But in fact, the two have never met, let alone communicated.
The media deliberately created a feeling of hostility between the two and vigorously marketed the conflict between Hua Chenyu and Li He, causing various rumors to fly.
Some gossip media even made exaggerated headlines. Li Hyuk and Hua Chenyu recreated the music scene of the 1980s when Tan and Zhang competed for hegemony. This time, they called Hua and Li competing for hegemony.
To be fair, if there really is a situation where Hua and Li are competing for supremacy, and the two form a healthy competitive relationship, the Chinese music scene will not be far from renaissance.
But no matter whether it is Li He or Hua Chenyu now, they are still incomparable to their elder brother, Principal Tan.
Maybe they can be on par with their predecessors in the future, but for now, Li He and Hua Chenyu are still juniors.
Not to mention the debate about who is better, Li Hyuk or Hua Chenyu, after a short rest, Li Hyuk and his team came to Tokyo on the evening of January 11th.
This was his first time going abroad, and he felt a little excited. This time, Li Hyuk was arranged by Sony Music to participate in Tokyo Fashion Week and serve as a stage performer.
This stage is also an outpost for many island singers to promote when they want to release records, and it has always been valued by the island music scene.
Therefore, Sony Music can arrange this resource for Li Hyuk, which is enough to prove that Sony Music attaches great importance to it.
There is still time before the start of the fashion week, so Li Hyuk also had a good time visiting Tokyo, a famous international city.
Apart from not being able to understand Japanese and some dietary differences, Li He didn't feel anything special.
Li He also went up to take a look at the famous Tokyo Tower. He overlooked downtown Tokyo from the tower. At this moment, Li He had a whim. It would be fun if Godzilla came over with a nuclear bomb in his mouth...
This year's Tokyo Fashion Week was held in the Shibuya area, which is Tokyo's premier commercial district and attracts a large number of tourists to shop every year.
The hotel that Sony Music arranged for Li Hyuk to stay at was the Peninsula Tokyo, a five-star hotel. This was the first time for Li Hyuk to stay in such a high-end hotel. It felt like Grandma Liu had entered the Grand View Garden.
This hotel also has hot springs where you can take a dip. When checking in, Sony Music receptionist Ms. Haruko specially recommended that Li Hyuk should try the hot springs.
Perhaps influenced by the works of teachers, when Li Hyuk thinks of hot springs, he inexplicably thinks of various hot spring works...
Although the island country has the habit of bathing together for men and women, as an international hotel, the Peninsula Hotel also has to consider the feelings of foreign guests, so it also has a smaller bathhouse with better privacy.
In other words, if you do anything inside, you won't be discovered. Of course, it's serious business.
After visiting the basic attractions, Li He felt bored, so he simply returned to the hotel to rest.
Agent Cheng Lixiang and assistant Qiao Meiying were in great spirits, shopping around major shopping districts.
Li He was worried about the safety of the two ladies, so he sent Da Zhuang to the two ladies, and he and Da Qiang returned to the hotel.
After dinner, Li He thought that even if he came here, he couldn't help but experience a special hot spring, so he made a reservation for a private hot spring.
Under the guidance of the waiter, Li He came to a small hot spring with Japanese architectural style. He declined the waiter's service and Li He soaked in the hot spring alone.
It was still cold in Tokyo in January, so it was the right time to soak in hot springs. The rising mist and hot hot springs made Li He drowsy, and he fell asleep after a while.
Airi Suzuki just checked into the Peninsula Hotel today. She is the star model of this fashion week. As an idol model promoted by the island country's fashion magazine "RC", she has been the most popular fashion week in the past two years along with Ayaka Miyoshi and Asuka Saito.
focus of attention.
As soon as she checked into the hotel, Suzuki Airi thought about taking a bath in a hot spring. Unlike other islanders who have the habit of sharing baths, Suzuki Airi attaches great importance to her privacy.
Except for bathing in hot springs with her family when she was a child, Airi Suzuki always bathed in hot springs alone when she grew up.
Because she often stays at the Peninsula Hotel, the hotel often prepares a small hot spring for Suzuki Airi, so there is no need to make a reservation. Suzuki Airi wears a bathrobe and goes to the hot spring that she often goes to.
However, when they arrived at the hot spring, Airi Suzuki discovered that there was someone in the hot spring, and it was a man.
Suzuki Airi was suddenly a little angry. What happened to the waiter at the Peninsula Hotel? Why did she want a man to soak in her private hot spring?
So an angry Suzuki Airi decided to drive this man out of her private hot spring, but the moment she walked in, she couldn't help but cover her mouth.
"This...is this Li Sang?" Airi Suzuki couldn't believe that the man who had fallen asleep in the hot spring was actually the Chinese singer she liked whom she had just met not long ago.
Suzuki Airi couldn't believe this sudden surprise. What's more important was that Li Sang and she were in the same room at this time. This...
Well, Suzuki Airi just had some inexplicable thoughts, and Li He woke up.
The moment he saw Suzuki Airi, Li Hyuk was startled, rushed out of the hot spring, and quickly put on his bathrobe.
However, the sudden glimpse of the scenery was still seen by Airi Suzuki. Airi Suzuki blushed: "I'm sorry, Li Sang, I didn't mean it. I thought there was no one inside."
In order to just watch it and not suffer any loss, Li He hurriedly put on his bathrobe and asked, "Why are you here?"
"Don't you know Li Sang? I am one of the models at Tokyo Fashion Week, and I just came from Osaka today." Airi Suzuki replied.
"Oh! So that's it, I don't quite understand it yet." Li He rubbed his head.
"Is Li Sang here to participate in the fashion week too?" Airi Suzuki asked.
"Uh, yes, Sony Music arranged for me to be a guest performer at the Youth Fashion Show." Li Hyuk returned.
Suzuki Airi's eyes lit up: "What a coincidence, I am also the model of this show, Li Sang, let's work together!"
