Zhang Deyu smoked a cigarette, sat on the sofa, and looked at Li Lei helplessly: "Mr. Li, Li Qing's new album has only been released for three days, and it has already dominated the song charts in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Taiwan and Taiwan. Although the sales volume is still
There is no disclosure, but if you think about it with the soles of your feet, you know that it will never be too low. If we enter the market now, we may suffer losses."
"I can't help it."
Li Lei shrugged and said, "You know He Yifeng's temper."
Zhang Deyu smiled bitterly: "We really shouldn't have chosen this person."
As this year approaches, Zhang Deyu is the vice president of Greater China for Warner Records, and is also temporarily serving as Any Peak’s manager. He was originally planning to expand his territory in Greater China, but he didn’t want to be slapped in the face as soon as he started the plan.
.
The name Li Qing was only slightly famous a year ago.
Even after the end of "Music Star", Li Qing's popularity was promoted to the second tier, but that was not the singer that Warner Records was mainly targeting and must poach.
Therefore, when Li Qing proposed to cooperate with Warner Bros. instead of being merged into Warner Bros., they flatly refused without even thinking about it.
Not only Warner, but no record company in the country is willing to do such a thing as dowry for others.
When the first-tier record companies across the country sneered at the situation and saw that they were in such dire straits that they had nowhere to turn for help, they never thought that their refusal would actually be a big gift to Universal Music, giving them an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Nowadays, Li Qing's new album of the same name has swept across the Taiwan Strait and three places. The songs in the album have even been in the top ten of the song demand charts of 6 Hong Kong and 6 channels at the same time. This horrifying phenomenon is even worse than that of Bao Yunyun, who was known as the Rookie King back then.
Be mighty!
This trend, even if it is a cooperative business, can make a lot of money.
It's strange that they are too greedy and want to firmly grasp Li Qing's money tree.
Greed harms people!
Like Universal Music, Warner also wants to get the first shot when entering Greater China.
Therefore, they searched everywhere in the music industry and finally chose He Yifeng, who was already semi-retired.
The two sides quietly negotiated terms, and Warner is full of confidence.
Although He Yifeng has retired for nearly ten years, his title of King of Rock and Roll has always been a resounding golden sign in the music industry.
Warner once conducted a mass survey, and then they were surprised to find that He Yifeng's appeal has always remained on the front line in the music industry even though he has been retired for ten years.
Whenever he holds a concert, countless fans will flock in.
This is the reason why Warner takes a fancy to He Yifeng, because in contemporary China, rock and roll is a national belief!
However, the problem lies in that He Yifeng is a character who is not willing to admit defeat.
Losing to Li Qing by a narrow margin in "The King of Masked Singer" had already planted a seed of anger in He Yifeng's heart.
The brilliance of the Big Windmill Band's existence back then was unparalleled.
Strictly speaking, the name Afeng was not only a rock star back then, but also the king of music.
Each album is a double platinum record, which is enough to prove the source of He Yifeng's confidence.
Therefore, he is not willing to believe that his new album will not be able to compete with a new artist.
This is also the reason why He Yifeng insisted on releasing his new album in October.
However, there is a tiger in front and a wolf behind.
It’s just Li Qing, but he is actually pursuing the queen Leng Ling behind him.
This moment made Warner Records silent and regretful.
October 5th is the day when He Yifeng's new album hits the charts.
But at this time, Warner Records was seriously lacking in confidence.
However, there is no turning back. No matter how much they struggle, after holding a press conference for the new album, Warner Records can only bite the bullet and go ahead.
"There are still two days." Li Lei stood up and spread his hands: "In your Chinese language, you can just accept your fate!"
Zhang Deyu put out the cigarette in the ashtray with a frown on his face...
However, things turned out to be more serious than they imagined.
October 4th.
The album "Li Qing" suddenly exploded in sales in Taiwan, completely causing shock in the entire music industry.
Taking Taipei as an example, in less than four days, all the "Li Qing" records were sold out in all video stores.
The scalper price of the "Li Qing" album has also risen sharply in the local area.
The album, which was originally priced at RMB 35 yuan per piece, has been sold for more than RMB 50,000 in the market, and the signed album is even more than RMB 1,000.
Universal Music Group has two production plants in Hong Kong and three in the mainland.
In the Mainland, except for the first three days, which were relatively tight, production has increased since then. Although supply is tight, it can still keep up with sales.
However, there is only one local production factory in Taiwan, and the scale of the factory is not comparable to that in Hong Kong and mainland China.
They worked overtime all night long, but they still managed to meet the supply demand.
So much so that Universal Music President Zhang Zitao had no choice but to charter a special plane to transfer goods from the factory in Hong Kong to Taiwan.
This news spread to mainland China, causing an uproar in the industry. When could a mainland singer's new album be so powerful in Taiwan?
You know, due to policy reasons, although Taiwanese artists are quite active in mainland China, the opportunities for mainland artists to act in Taiwan are very few. The Taiwan Information Bureau is particularly sensitive to mainland artists and has many restrictions. This has led to many
Outstanding artists from mainland China, except for the top tier, have never been able to capture the Taiwanese market.
This doubt has caused a lot of discussion in the mainland music scene.
People with connections and abilities also made inquiries in various aspects to their Taiwanese friends.
After some communication, especially after reading reports from Taiwan, everyone suddenly understood.
It turns out that Li Qing's fame in Taiwan was not accidental.
Taiwanese singers Li Shengyun and Zhou Jing's private financial transactions with the Taiwan Information Bureau were exposed; the behind-the-scenes manipulation of Taiwan's hit song chart was exposed; the fact that Li Qing, the defendant, turned into a victim was revealed...
Especially after it was reported that the album "Li Qing" was in the top ten of Taiwan's song charts, this directly led to the name Li Qing becoming very popular in Taiwan.
Under this situation, everyone couldn't help but be curious and requested songs by mainland singer Li Qing.
This on-demand broadcast completely attracted everyone. Almost all Taiwanese people were deeply immersed in that song and could not extricate themselves.
Coupled with the heavy financial reward from Universal Music and the crazy reports from the Taiwanese media...
This directly caused the album "Li Qing" to set off a music storm throughout Taiwan.
The scene is almost similar to that of mainland China. Songs from the "Li Qing" album are being played everywhere in Taiwan, including Tainan, Keelung and other places.
The number of Li Qing’s fans in Taiwan is also exploding like a volcano!
Rumble
As if in an instant, Li Qing became popular in Taiwan!
Various top variety shows in Taiwan, under this momentum, also extended an olive branch to Li Qing!
Even some directors who are preparing idol TV series have heard of Li Qing's entire name.
When they saw Li Qing's handsome face in the song MV, all the directors were shocked, inspired, and their eyes were as hot as the sun.
This phenomenon instantly caused a series of butterfly effects.
Every time Xu Wen opened the mailbox published by Hanhai, her computer would automatically freeze and she would not be able to open the mailbox unless she worked for several hours.
Invitations to variety shows and TV series from Taiwan, Hong Kong and mainland China were like snowflakes, dazzling Xu Wen.
Xu Wen, Fang Haotian and others spent the whole morning in front of the computer, sifting through these invitations.
"'Art Life' is pretty good! Cui Zhiye was invited to this program, and it is hosted by CCTV, and its ratings are quite stable."
"Isn't it necessary to go to "Art Life"? The ratings are quite stable, but they can't even break 1. This is because of the benefits of "The King of Masked Singer"."
“What about ‘Absolute Winner’?”
"Forget about "Absolute Winner", the ratings on Dolphin Channel are just average..."
"Dolphin TV has a Chinese drama festival, so we should establish a good relationship with them! Our "Soldier Assault" project is being approved and will be shot soon. If we establish a good relationship with them, maybe we can win a few awards by then?"
"I definitely want to go to "Happy Camp". Let's watch DiCaprio first."
"There are also many programs in Taiwan! The ratings of "I Guess" are very high, and it is very influential in the Chinese circle..."
"What the hell is "The Love Code of Male Gods"? A Taiwanese TV series customized based on Li Qing? Will the boss accept this kind of soap opera?"
"There are also many programs here in Hong Kong. Wow, someone at TV actually wants to find the boss to film..."
"It's impossible to film the movie. The boss has already accepted "Love Words". We will wait until "Love Words" is finished filming."
A group of people discussed in front of the computer for a long time.
In the end, they handed over the list of more than 20 programs and TV movies that met the ratings and popularity standards to Liu Qin.
When Liu Qin handed the list to Li Qing, Li Qing had no time to read it.
Because just now, CCTV called him and received a reply about the song project "In Spring" that he submitted.
On the phone, the other party sounded very approving.
However, he did not elaborate on the specific situation. He just asked Li Qing to come to CCTV when he had time and talk face to face.
Li Qing became excited instantly.
Since his rebirth, playing records has been Li Qing's first wish.
Being able to attend the Spring Festival Gala is Li Qing's second wish.
Good things come one after another, why doesn't Li Qing get excited?
He immediately packed up his things, put off his schedule for the day, and drove to the CCTV building.
At this time, Global Executive Director Yang Ka-shing was depressed.
He flew here specially from Hong Kong and relied on the convenience of Global Resources to originally arrange many announcements for Li Qing.
But now it seems that Li Sin is completely uninterested in these announcements.
This is not the reason why Yang Ka-shing is depressed.
The reason why he was depressed was because his existence seemed a bit redundant.
Because even if he doesn't help, Li Qing can still receive countless program invitations.
His help only caused more trouble for Li Qing.
Nowadays, no TV station or radio station does not want to invite Li Qing during this time. They are like concubines in the cold palace, eager for the emperor's happiness.
Therefore, after hesitating for a long time, Yang Ka-shing finally said goodbye.
In the midst of loneliness, he said goodbye to Hanhai and flew back to Hong Kong with his people——
