Hanging up the phone with a snap, Zheng Guocheng looked a little uncertain.
The call came from the music supermarket, saying that the sales volume was good, more than 400 copies were sold in five hours, and asked Hongzhi Records to do more publicity for "Heavy Rain Pear Blossom".
More than 400 copies. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be at least 3,000 copies a week, and the country will sell at least 60,000 albums a week.
At least 60,000 albums were sold this week. To be honest, this result is already very good. This was originally an expected good news, but looking at the newspaper in his hand, Zheng Guocheng couldn't be happy at all.
"Leng Ling's new song "Actor" was released on the "Sound of Music" radio station. Her cool and ethereal voice once again caused a storm. It landed in the top eight of the national radio station's song list within two hours!"
Putting down the newspaper, Zheng Guocheng stood up and paced around the office uneasily.
On the production line, he has announced the suspension of production, but he has not stopped the production agreement, only postponed the production time.
Now that there are 100,000 CDs and 200,000 tapes accumulated in the warehouse, he can be said to be struggling and cautious. He doesn't know whether "Heavy Rain Pear Blossoms" will be able to survive under the impact of the official release of the new album a week later.
Hold up.
It is precisely because of this that he plans to take it one step at a time.
If "Heavy Rain and Pear Blossoms" faces the impact of the queen's new album next week and still achieves the same sales results as today, this will show Bao Yunyun's ability to resist the queen. In this case, of course he will restart the production line!
His factory only has two CD production lines and five tape production lines. Working overtime, it can produce 20,000 CDs and more than 50,000 sets of tapes a day.
Moreover, there are still a balance of 100,000 CDs and 200,000 cassette sets in the warehouse. As long as nothing unexpected happens, they will still be available when the time comes.
Hongzhi Records is not as big as big companies such as Yuanzheng and COSCO. As the leader of the company, Zheng Guocheng will definitely be in doom if he makes a wrong step.
Without three to five years, the company will never recover, and these three to five years are so important. Zheng Guocheng will never allow himself to make such a mistake.
Zheng Guocheng did not tell Ma Xuyi about stopping the production line. It was a bit embarrassing to talk about this kind of thing. It might cause a big sensation in the industry...
The queen held a new album press conference and announced that the new album would be released soon. In the blink of an eye, Hongzhi Records pissed its pants and even stopped the production line...
No matter how I hear this kind of thing, I feel ashamed.
However, Zheng Guocheng really has no other option. It is indeed possible to continue production, but if there is excess production and a batch of goods is left unsold, wouldn't it be in his own hands?
You know, pirates will not give you a chance to sell slowly!
Although the sound quality of a CD that costs five yuan a piece is not as good as that of a genuine album that costs fifteen yuan, as long as it is not heard by professionals, it is actually no different at all!
Fans won’t care about these details!
Therefore, the first two months after the release of every singer's new album is definitely a top priority. If the remaining inventory cannot be sold after these two months, then what will you know about the pirated CDs that are all over the streets?
It’s called despair!
…
At the same time, Wanxing Shopping Plaza in Beijing.
Li Qing, wearing a baseball cap, walked out with his head lowered, carrying a packaging box in his hand, and hailed a taxi. When he was about to leave, he suddenly heard singing coming from the corner of the street.
"Listen to the sound of the sea crying
Sighing, who has been heartbroken again?
But not awake yet
It must not be me
At least I'm calm
But tears
I don’t even believe the tears…”
Li Qing looked up and saw the song "Listen to the Sea" playing in a well-decorated video store on the opposite street corner.
Bao Yunyun's emotional singing voice was unforgettable and absolutely attractive. Just as Li Qing raised his head and glanced at it, Li Qing found that many people had walked into the video store.
"Young man, you should get in the car!" the taxi driver turned around and shouted from inside the car.
Li Qing quickly apologized: "Sorry, I have something to do at the moment, so I won't sit down."
The taxi driver muttered a few words and was about to turn around when his eyes suddenly lit up and he looked at Li Qing and said, "Are you Li Qing?"
Li Qing subconsciously wanted to lower the brim of his hat, but the taxi driver quickly opened the door and got out of the car. He ran up to Li Qing with an energetic face, stretched out his hand, and smiled from ear to ear: "Hey, hey,
I am your fan, this... wherever you go, I will send it to you, free of charge, hey, please don't be polite to me, serve the people!"
"I'm sorry, Master, I have something to do here. I really don't want to be polite to you. Next time, next time!" Li Qing was frightened by the driver's enthusiasm. He shook hands with the driver affectionately, then raised his head and looked at the people in front of him.
At the traffic light, go directly to the opposite side.
"Hey, are you going to buy records? I can wait for you here!"
The driver yelled from behind, and Li Qing couldn't help but waved his hand to the driver, saying no, and quickly walked into the video store.
As soon as I walked in, I saw several young people surrounding the boss standing by the counter, chattering non-stop.
"Boss, do you still have the tape of "Heavy Rain and Pear Blossoms"?"
"Please give me three albums by Bao Yunyun!"
"Boss, what song are you playing right now?"
"Is there an album of the song "Girl with Wings"? Bao Yunyun sang it."
Looking at this lively scene, Li Qing felt a sense of relief inexplicably, but before he could finish the relief, he heard the boss say depressingly: "No more, all gone, I won a hundred tickets, who knew
This album is so popular, who of you still wants it? Register here, pay a deposit of 1 yuan, and you can pick it up tomorrow morning!"
As soon as this sentence was said, some people left in disappointment and continued to look for the next video store, while others took out a dollar and followed them to queue up to register.
Li Qing stepped forward and asked politely: "Boss, is the album "Heavy Rain Pear Blossom" selling well?"
"It's not bad. The hundred copies I just mentioned this morning were sold out in the morning, and the two hundred sets of tapes were also sold out. Do you want to buy them too?" The boss glanced at Li Qing, but did not recognize Li Qing, and continued:
"If you want to buy it, register here, pay a deposit of one yuan, and bring the remaining money to pick up the goods tomorrow morning."
Li Qing was a little surprised. This video store was well-decorated, but it could only be considered a medium-to-lower scale in the capital. Moreover, it was not a first-level dealer, but an agent, so he did not dare to buy too much, including newcomers' albums.
, usually fifty albums and one hundred cassettes.
That is to say, Bao Yunyun's singing performance this week has been very good, making the song "Girl with Wings" completely popular, so the owner of this video store doubled his income in one go.
But what the boss didn't expect was that one hundred records were sold out in just one morning!
Moreover, the cheaper tapes were just snatched up by a group of middle school students who came after school!
The goods purchased this time are simply not enough to sell...
The boss immediately called the first-level dealer to pick up the goods. However, what the boss didn't expect was that the first-level dealer seemed to be almost sold out and directly rejected his request and told him that the goods would not arrive until tomorrow morning.
What the hell is this!
A new singer's album is so popular?!
Why does it feel like the King of Heaven and the Queen are possessed? This stock was sold out in just one morning!
Is this still new?

Thank you everyone for your reward. I have over 10,000 recommendation votes. I will update it today. Some readers also said that Zheng Guocheng’s reaction in the previous chapters was too exaggerated. I took a closer look and found that it was indeed a bit too much. I finally decided to delete the last few hundred words.
