After learning that Universal Music's music director and marketing director were coming together, store manager Lin Yadong hurriedly entertained him personally.
In the reception room, Lin Yadong was a little happy. After he made a phone call, the publisher sent two directors to investigate. He felt respected in his heart. He smiled and said: "I think the two directors must have seen the situation at the scene. Zheng Qian's EP
The album is selling very well. The 500 copies are almost sold out. I have just called your company and placed a new order. I think another two or three thousand copies can still be digested. In addition, Zheng Qian doesn’t know if there is any
If you are free, you can come to our forest audio and video to hold a signing party..."
The marketing director said: "Mr. Lin may be disappointed. We currently have no inventory in the factory, but don't worry, we have urged them to speed up production. I believe the goods will arrive quickly in two days!"
Lin Yadong's expression changed, "Out of stock?"
Wan Feng nodded and said: "Yes, it is indeed out of stock, and Zheng Qian is not an artist signed by our Universal Records. We are just a cooperative relationship, and Zheng Qian was just a newcomer at the time, so only 50,000 copies were produced in the early stage to test the water.
None of us expected that this EP would be so popular... Of course, the autograph session will be easy to arrange, and I believe Zheng Qian will agree to it."
Lin Yadong muttered: "Then we will need as much as we can produce in advance. Give us 5,000 pieces first..."
The marketing director was surprised and said: "So much? Has your store digested it all?"
"This requires your company's cooperation. Invite Zheng Qian to hold a signing party in two days. In addition, do not ship to other companies yet, just postpone it for one day." Lin Yadong said with a smile.
"It's not necessary..." the marketing director said: "I don't think Zheng Qian's real popularity is high, and we can't hold so many albums at a book signing..."
Lin Yadong glanced at him, and then asked someone to bring a new mini radio. After turning it on, he adjusted the frequency of the radio station and heard a song coming from the radio station: "It's hard for you to have those hands that only a hug can give you. If you want to
To have something, you must first understand how to accept loss..."
Wan Feng was stunned for a moment and instantly realized something he had missed.
Zheng Qian is making a list?
The marketing director also reacted with some suspicion: "Is this Zheng Qian's song?"
Lin Yadong glanced at him: "It's Zheng Qian's song. Did you know that starting from ten o'clock in the morning, Zheng Qian went to Hong Kong Music Radio to play on the charts? Do you know where his new song is currently on the chart? Zongze
Brother, you are the marketing director of Universal Music, but you seem to know nothing about Zheng Qian?"
Chen Zongze's face flashed with embarrassment, but he did not explain anything.
Because he knows that Zheng Qian's new songs will definitely have outstanding results on the song charts of major radio stations, otherwise Lin Yadong would not say so.
"Since last night, "Red Sun" has appeared on major music radio stations. Even late at night, it was still frequently requested. At ten o'clock this morning, Zheng Qian was invited to be a guest on Hong Kong Music Radio to promote two songs from the mini album.
, one is "Red Sun", and the other is this song "Under Mount Fuji"."
Lin Yadong smiled and said: "It seems that Brother Zongze doesn't know as much as I do."
In fact, he just learned about these things...
"I inquired on the phone. These two songs by Zheng Qian have been requested hundreds of times on major radio stations, and they were ranked in the top two at the same time."
Lin Yadong said meaningfully: "For a newcomer to have such achievements, I think it is necessary to hold a signing event. His fans are all young people of the new generation and are netizens in major forums. It is extremely convenient for them to communicate with each other."
,Young people only need a bridge to make friends, and Zheng Qian is this bridge..."
Chen Zongze understood, gave a thumbs up and said: "Mr. Lin's research is still thorough!"
At the same time, Hong Kong Music Radio.
Zheng Qian took out the ten albums he bought with his own money, thanked the anchors who received him one by one, and gave away the albums in his hand.
The anchors were also very kind to Zheng Qian. After receiving the album, they thanked him repeatedly and said happily: "Qian, next time you come to our radio station as a guest, you don't need to say hello. You can just come over and you can be on all the programs!"
Just a random live broadcast, the listening rate has increased significantly. This is so bad that these anchors are naturally extremely polite and friendly to Zheng Qian.
Zheng Qian's fans in Hong Kong are definitely action-oriented. After hearing that Zheng Qian was singing on a music radio station, they almost immediately started to support him.
Many fans posted on major forums to notify the news, and tens of thousands of people flocked to turn on their radios to listen to the music station, which suddenly increased the radio's listening rate.
Even Zheng Qian didn't expect that after he casually set the flag and made the navy crazy about his works, the conversion rate of netizens and fans in major forums would be so high!
Nowadays, in the online world, if you have never heard of Zheng Qian's name, you are definitely ignorant.
This made Zheng Qian a little addicted, and he decided to do this kind of marketing every time a work was released in the future, and he would definitely make money without losing money.
Of course, this is only when the quality of the work is extremely high. If the quality of the work is not good enough, such marketing will arouse the disgust of passers-by.
After leaving Hong Kong Music Radio, Zheng Qian returned to the hotel where he was stationed, preparing to take a rest before rushing back to the mainland.
Because he had just received a notice that Hunan Satellite TV invited the most popular contestants from "Chinese Idol" to record "Happy Camp" two days later. This move was to warm up the upcoming "Chinese Idol".
And in the list of the most popular players, Zheng Qian's name is impressive.
This makes Zheng Qian very excited!
Today's "Happy Camp" is not as sexy as later generations, but it is the most popular ratings harvester at the moment. The exposure rate is terrifying, and the audience is almost measured in hundreds of millions. After all, this is not the world of the Internet, and people are still used to it.
Watch all major TV channels.
It can be said that the prime time slot at 8pm every Saturday night is absolutely dominated by "Happy Camp". The ratings often rank first in the same time period. Even CCTV is often rubbed on the ground during this time period.
It was completely unexpected by Zheng Qian to receive an invitation to record for "Happy Camp".
But it’s still being cleaned up!
After all, "Chinese Idol" is the latest flagship program, so it is natural to use the program platform of "Happy Camp" to promote it.
But just when Zheng Qian and others were preparing to go home, Universal Records called and asked Zheng Qian to come to the company when he was free tomorrow to discuss new business.
Zheng Qian actually had some suspicions in his heart, so he stayed in Hong Kong for one more night.
Early the next morning, Wan Feng drove to Zheng Qian's hotel in person, and then enthusiastically invited Zheng Qian to the company as a guest.
Zheng Qian analyzed it all night last night and knew that the marketing tactics of the Internet might have worked, so he followed Wan Fengli to Universal Music.
It was different from the last time when only a few people received us.
This time, seven or eight senior executives from Universal Music Hong Kong, including music director Wan Feng, showed up one by one and shook hands with Zheng Qian with a smile.
Wan Feng solemnly introduced them to Zheng Qian.
The titles of these people are either managers or directors. There are also two directors, including a general manager and the number one boss.
But no matter which position he holds, when shaking hands with Zheng Qian, he will politely say: "I have long admired your name."
This is a completely different treatment than when I came here a few months ago.
"Qianzi, I have good news for you."
Wan Feng said with some excitement: ""The Gentleman" was released yesterday, and the initial 50,000 copies were almost sold out. Now we are considering printing an additional 200,000 copies!"
Zheng Qian's reaction was not as exciting as Wan Feng's. He smiled slightly: "Really? It seems that there is still some market for my songs."
Wan Feng smiled and said: "Not only in some markets, in industry terms, your album is a hit, a big hit!"
Marketing Director Chen Zongze also added jealously: "Forest Audio and Video Building invites you to hold a signing event tomorrow, Qian Zai, you have to prepare well tomorrow, the signing event will take at least two hours..."
When Zheng Qian heard this, he quickly said: "Sorry, I have a ticket to fly to the mainland tomorrow..."
The general manager smiled and said: "It's easy, just cancel it! It's not a big deal. I'll reimburse you for your flight ticket back."
"Yes, Qianzi, being able to hold a book signing event at the Forest Audio and Video Building is a privilege that many popular singers have." Wan Feng explained: "This has a significant effect on stimulating sales, and can also strengthen the relationship between you and your fans.
The interaction and intimacy…”
Zheng Qian shook his head: "I'm not trying to shirk it. Everyone, I have to go back to the mainland to participate in a program tomorrow. The schedule has been arranged and I can't miss it."
The general manager smiled and said: "I am familiar with many program directors in the Mainland. Tell me which program it is and I will arrange it for you. It is just a recording of the program. It will be moved to another date!"
Even other senior executives looked in disbelief at this time.
Even in Hong Kong and Taiwan, they have heard of "Happy Camp", the mainland's flagship program.
Many popular stars from Hong Kong and Taiwan will come to this show to promote their new works, and not everyone can be on it.
The most important thing is that no matter how big your talent is, you still have to queue up, depending on the mood of the program team to schedule your schedule!
They looked at Zheng Qian again.
"I didn't expect that Qianzi, you are also very popular in the mainland!"
The general manager forced a smile and said: "I heard that "Happy Camp" has very high ratings and is an excellent platform for newcomers. It cannot be easily transferred out of the schedule..."
Zheng Qian smiled and nodded.
The atmosphere is a bit awkward.
Wan Feng changed the subject and said: "In this case, we really can't force Zheng Qian. In fact, this is just an EP album. It doesn't matter whether the autograph session is held or not. Qianzi, we invite you here this time because we want to
Continue to talk to you about cooperation."
"I would like to hear the details." Zheng Qian said cautiously.
Wan Feng nodded and looked at the hair director next to him.
So the director of the distribution department said: "We at Universal Music want to continue to cooperate in depth with Mr. Zheng to develop a complete music album. This album will be available to all Asia, including mainland China, with an initial release of 300,000 copies!"
Zheng Qian listened quietly, with no surprise on his face.
Upon seeing this, the distribution director continued: "As for the details of the cooperation, we will still calculate it according to the share contract of "Qian Qian Junzi", which is Qi San... Of course, if Mr. Zheng is willing, we can also buy out Mr. Zheng's new album at once
We can discuss the buyout fee in detail later, but if you agree to buyout, the subsequent commercial value of this music album will have nothing to do with you..."
Universal Music is very sincere.
In addition to continuing the 73% share, including the use of docility and the filming of the MV, all costs incurred in producing the official album will be borne by Universal Music.
And in the future, more than one million worth of promotional resources are promised.
As for Zheng Qian, he only needs to prepare fifteen original songs.
Zheng Qian was a little moved.
His idea is also very simple. Take out all the songs that he has sung before in "Singer" and "Chinese Idol" and put them into this album. After all, they are all songs that have already been written. It will not be made into an album.
What a pity.
Moreover, these songs, not to say they are all excellent, are indeed very beautiful, and can naturally be recycled twice.
So I put forward this idea a little bit.
Global executives looked at each other.
Wan Feng thought for a moment and then agreed: "Of course you can, but there must be at least three Cantonese songs in this album."
Zheng Qian's brain quickly calculated, "Blooming Life", "Finger Moon on the Left Hand", "Opera 2", "Broad Sea and Sky", "365 Days of Missing You", "Floating to the North", "Legend", "Death"
"Everyone Wants to Love", and even the theme song "Dance of the Goddess" from the movie "The Fifth Element" can also be added. Of course, there is also the song "The Most Beautiful Sun" dedicated to fans. Together, these songs are enough
There are ten songs!
As for those red songs, even if Zheng Qian was willing to join in, it is estimated that these Hong Kong people would not agree, so he did not speak again.
In other words, Zheng Qian only needs to write five more songs to make a real music album!
So he agreed immediately!
This album can be said to have a completely different style, and I don’t know if Hong Kong fans can tolerate it.
He knows what kind of image he has been in the eyes of Hong Kong fans recently.
Because of songs such as "The Love of Glass" and "Under Mount Fuji", Zheng Qian has now become the prince of love songs in the eyes of the younger generation.
When he was browsing online forums at the hotel last night, he had already discovered that many fans had begun to praise and tout the album "Qian Qian Gong Zi" online, and there were many people who sang every song very seriously.
lyrics, giving them sacred meaning.
Godly.
In short, a song will be interpreted by them from various angles.
These fans are as devout as a group of crazy believers.
Zheng Qian sighed, this is the power of brainwashing!
When someone says you are ugly, you may not feel ugly yet, but when the whole world says you are ugly, you will naturally accept this fact.
On the contrary, when the whole world recognized Zheng Qian's songs, Zheng Qian naturally became a god in the hearts of his fans.
This is the information cocoon.
The information field you are exposed to will be habitually guided by your own interests, thus shackling your life in a "cocoon room" like a silkworm cocoon, and thus thinking that the world you are exposed to is the whole world!
From now on, no other different sounds can be heard.
