Chapter 93 The Rookie Broker on the Road, Won the Weekly Champion
Chapter 93: Winning the weekly championship again, the rookie agent is on the road
August 23.
Today is the second week of the release of "Fairy Tale".
The wheat field holds Yang Guangda’s killing weapon.
As early as when Jiang Yan entered the recording studio and started recording songs, "Fairy Tale" swept the entire continent from south to north like a prairie fire.
Under the powerful offensive of Wheat Field, it is no surprise that "Fairy Tale" has topped the weekly charts of major charts in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei.
At the same time, "Fairy Tale" has basically occupied the top three in major well-known lists in mainland China.
When to reach the summit is just a matter of time.
What followed was invitations from various authoritative media.
On the same day, under Gao Daqian's repeated urging, Jiang Yan once again interrupted the recording and spent half a day shooting the covers of various magazines.
Jiang Yan actually didn't know much about magazines of this era.
After all, he comes from the Internet era, and print media is certainly not as good as portal media in his impression.
However, Jiang Yan's concept of the magazine is this, which does not mean that he will refuse.
Every era has its own characteristics.
Magazines are a powerful tool for artists to promote themselves.
The more it appears in high-end magazines, the more it represents the artist's potential and status.
So Jiang Yan agreed directly.
You can also practice Wu Yong's related abilities along the way.
So a few days later, on the cover of the latest issue of the most popular entertainment magazine "Contemporary Music Circle", a man with eyes that could kill people appeared.
Not only that, even magazines like "Showbiz" put Jiang Yan on the cover.
This is also the first time Jiang Yan has been reported in detail by heavyweight media.
The focus is not only to introduce the song "Fairy Tale" itself, but also to spend a lot of space introducing Jiang Yan himself. Of course, the introduction of Jiang Yan has been packaged.
To put it in short words, this phenomenon directly breaks the curse of newcomers, the embarrassing situation of being a popular singer but not popular.
There is no way, Jiang Yan's appearance is too good.
And it was precisely because of the introduction of two major magazines.
Various print media also joined in the reporting again.
Jiang Yan can be said to be truly famous all over the country from now on.
As a result, album sales skyrocketed.
Ends August 24th.
Aida immediately received feedback data. Today is the 14th day since the album was released. Sales of tapes and CDs have steadily exceeded 300,000, with a significant increase.
If nothing else happens, by the end of the month, the "Fairy Tale" single will definitely have sales of over 500,000 this year.
Sales of 500,000 copies can be directly awarded platinum status in Wanwan, and there are more than one.
Although it cannot be compared in the same direction in mainland China, it can be considered quite terrifying for newcomers.
This has steadily exceeded the sales of second-tier singers, and even first-tier singers cannot stop them.
However, corresponding to the surge in genuine sales, there has been a surge in piracy.
There are no authoritative statistics here, but according to Gao Dajin’s experience, the sales volume of pirated copies is at least eight times that of genuine copies.
In other words, so far, in the two weeks since the album was released, at least 2 million pirated copies have been purchased.
This number can only be more or less, otherwise why would the streets and alleys in every city be filled with "fairy tales" now?
Xiao Dajin was not only happy, but also expressed that he was very distressed!
There's no way to calculate this thing. If you really want to do statistics, you'd probably have a heart attack again if you're short and tight.
Fortunately, although Jiang Yan's cassette albums are priced at normal prices, the single CDs are expensive. The single CD with a poster actually costs 18 yuan!
This is at least six yuan more expensive than other CDs on the market.
Moreover, there are at least ten songs on a CD, but Jiang Yan only has one.
In the words of the owners of major video stores, only fools would buy it.
Everyone doesn’t have much money these days, so when buying albums, it’s natural to choose affordable ones.
Tapes and optical discs cost six or seven yuan each, and more than ten yuan each. Of course, choose the tape.
They are also CDs, one is full of songs, and the other has only one song. Of course, the one with more songs is selected.
But the reality turned out to be a slap in the face for them.
Jiang Yan's single CD with posters is in short supply.
In this way, although Wheatfield only gets a 30% share, it can basically make a lot of money.
But it’s not stupid to be short, big and tight. Selling it so expensively will end up being a bargain for pirates.
So from the very beginning when he promoted it, he said that the CD was limited edition.
It’s euphemistically called: “The advanced marketing method of the United States.”
Well now, the 100,000 single CDs were sold out on the 25th.
Short, big, tight and comfortable.
So the next round of offensive began.
I picked up all kinds of interviews, from print media and TV, and only accepted the ones that were important.
Just a few interviews played out.
Jiang Yan has truly established himself in the music industry.
...
August 26th.
Jiang Yan suspended album recording.
Among the ten songs, except for "Chi Ling" which has been unfinished, the other nine have been completed.
His voice is pretty good, so he didn't have to put much effort into playing the saliva songs. Apart from "Chi Ling", the most difficult one was "Wukong", which took four days to pass.
As for "Chi Ling", this is really not something he can handle at this stage...
Jiang Yan felt that he would have to spend some time to brush up on his skills next.
If he really couldn't generate the skill, he would have to temporarily replace it.
In the afternoon of that day, Wang Jin called from Xiangjiang and said that the filming of the movie was about to start.
Jiang Yan then took advantage of the situation and decided to leave Beijing tomorrow.
But at the same time, Gao Dajin came over to discuss with him the upcoming interview.
After hearing this, Jiang Yan quickly made a choice. Instead of showing his face and becoming famous, at this stage Jiang Yan naturally chose to push forward the progress.
He must have an idea of how much progress a movie can make early on, so that he can plan the next steps.
So he said to Gao Da: "Forget it, I'm going to Xiangjiang tomorrow."
"Either you take the one from today. I've been here several times." Xiao Daqing suggested.
"Okay." Jiang Yan nodded in agreement.
"Are you going to do these commercial performances? There are also advertising endorsements for several small brands." Gao Dajin asked again.
"Forget it, let's push it, we don't have time for now." Jiang Yan waved his hand.
"Okay." Xiao Dajin heard the words but didn't give much advice.
He quite understood Jiang Yan. After all, he believed that they were both from the same class, and everyone had similar thoughts on whether to be popular or not.
Being popular is more for fun, and making money is just a way of doing it, you can make it or not.
They are not like other little stars who seize every opportunity and never let it go.
If Jiang Yan were like those little stars, he would be short, tall and tight, but he wouldn't even care to talk to him.
So for interviews, endorsements, etc., push them as soon as you can, and pick them up next time when you have time.
But now Jiang Yan's calm and unrestrained appearance makes Xiao Dajin very envious.
So he became curious about Jiang Yan's itinerary: "Why are you going to Xiangjiang?"
"I invested in a movie and went over to play it." Jiang Yan didn't hide it.
"You are so good at playing!" Xiao Dajin was very envious, and then asked, "Who are some of the actresses?"
"Akane."
"Fairy Zixia!" Xiao Dajin claps his folding fan regretfully and said, "If I didn't have time, I would have to go with you no matter what."
"Your wife doesn't care?"
"She dares?!"
"Then we'll do it next time." Jiang Yan said with a smile.
"That's a good deal."
"Must~" Jiang Yan spoke with a northeastern accent.
Later, Gao Da watched Jiang Yan's departure from Beijing, so he and Wu Yong began to hand over Jiang Yan's brokerage business.
In the past, Jiang Yan did not have a manager, so these businesses fell on Wheatfield Music.
Now that Wu Yong has become Jiang Yan's manager, it is natural for him to hand over the job. Let Jiang Yan and Wu Yong discuss the specific choice.
As a rookie agent, Wu Yong said that Alexander was a good friend because he was short and tall, and he taught Wu Yong various precautions for a long time.
But it will probably take a long time for Wu Yong to truly adapt to this identity, and he will have to make all kinds of stupid mistakes during this period.
Regarding this, Jiang Yan said that it doesn't matter, he doesn't know how to learn, everyone makes mistakes, just take your time.
In the afternoon of that day, Jiang Yan and Wu Yong were interviewed by the "Beijing Times".
Everything was fine at the beginning. The questions asked were quite satisfactory and nothing special.
But at the end, the middle-aged reporter suddenly asked:
"You are only eighteen years old now, and your first song can become popular all over the country. Do you think you are worthy of it?"
As soon as this question was asked, Wu Yong on the side couldn't help clenching his fists.
What's the meaning?
What's not worthy?
Why does B's tone sound like a personal attack?
However, Jiang Yan was quite safe. He asked: "I'm sorry, what do you mean, I didn't understand."
The middle-aged reporter adjusted his glasses and asked with a smile: "I mean, you are only eighteen years old now, and the songs you write can stay on the weekly charts for two weeks. Do you think you are better than those famous singers?
"
"Of course not." Jiang Yan said righteously, "To be honest, I know what my singing skills are like. There is still a gap between my singing skills and those of famous singers. As for songs that have been on the weekly charts, it's a good time to catch up."
Jiang Yan answered very humbly. Although he didn't know what the reporter's purpose was, at least he couldn't leave any clues about what he said.
"Okay, thank you for accepting my interview today."
The middle-aged reporter had no further words and stood up directly to end the interview.
Although Jiang Yan had some doubts in his heart, he still had to do his best on the surface.
After bidding farewell to the reporters, Jiang Yan told Gao Da about the matter that evening.
Xiao Dajin said he would keep an eye on him.
Back at the hotel, Jiang Yan asked Wu Yong, "Have you recorded it?"
"It's all recorded," Wu Yong said.
"Make more copies."
"clear!"
Jiang Yan sighed: It's best to think too much.
As early as when he first experienced "Heavenly King Jiang Haokun", Jiang Yan had already thought about this aspect.
There is a saying that it is wrong to be popular, and there is a saying that it is necessary to be on guard against others.
Although Jiang Yan positions himself in the class of financial sponsor father, it does not mean that he will not encounter this kind of thing.
Therefore, due precautions must be taken.
"Xiaoyan, I will communicate in advance next time." Wu Yong blamed himself.
He felt that he had not done a good job in advance.
To put it bluntly, it was because I had no experience.
But Jiang Yan still said it didn't matter.
"If this kind of thing could be solved through advance communication, this place wouldn't be called the entertainment industry."
As he spoke, he reminded, "But this also reminds us that it is important to have our own right to speak in public opinion!"
When Wu Yong heard this, his eyes lit up.
Thanks to "Momo Waiting", "Xiao Shufu" and "My Heroic Spirit" for the rewards, and thank you for your monthly votes and recommendation votes.
