At this time, Ye Ming's life began to return to a relatively normal trajectory.
In addition to participating in poetry conferences, he basically focused his main energy on albums. Soon, his first solo album Taosheng began to be released.
On the day of release, it was supported by a poetry conference, so the sales were quite amazing. The sales on that day had already reached 100,000. What is this number? 100,000 is basically a double platinum record. 5
10,000 is a platinum record, and 100,000 is a double platinum record.
Today, when the record industry is declining, an achievement like Ye Ming's is basically enough to prove that he is the first person of the new generation.
Excluding those emperors and superstars, and those of the older generation, it can be said that the number of records sold to 100,000 stores on the day it was put on the shelves is indeed the first among young people.
So, at this time, Wang Xiaoshu is also very happy, because after all, the two parties are in a cooperative relationship. Ye Ming and Wang Xiaoshu are collaborating again. After all, releasing records is a very professional matter.
So, if Ye Ming’s album sells fast, then it must be said online that they are making money. This is definitely no problem. However, one thing is that Ye Ming is not very cooperative with the promotion of the product. At this time
In fact, people in the company still have very strong opinions on Ye Ming.
However, there is no way that now that Ye Ming is famous and his records are selling very well, they don't dare to fall out with Ye Ming directly at this time. Besides, this doesn't mean that they can fall out if they want to. After all, they have already signed a contract.
Don't violate it casually.
However, it is not a big deal for Wang Xiaoshu to persuade Ye Ming at this time, because the relationship between Wang Xiaoshu and Ye Ming is very good, and the two of them are good friends in private.
So, under such a situation, it is completely okay to ask Wang Xiaoshu to go to Ye Ming to find out what is going on.
Wang Xiaoshu actually felt that Ye Ming should take the initiative to publicize it, so at this time Wang Xiaoshu directly found Ye Ming, and at this time, two people were sharing an iced drink and eating in a courtyard of Ye Ming's house.
Freshly fried peanuts.
Good guy, these two people have really good taste. Drinking drinks and eating peanuts is definitely not what ordinary people can think of.
Wang Xiaoshu didn't mind at all. Not to mention the drinks, he drank Erguotou without any side dishes. Wang Xiaoshu himself had done this kind of thing. He just said that as he grew older,
It is very difficult for this kind of thing to happen.
However, this time he was facing two people, Ye Ming and good friends who had nothing to hold on to, so Wang Xiaoshu regained his true temperament.
Originally, he planned to invite Ye Ming to drink, but he also made it clear that there was a live broadcast of the poetry conference tonight, so he couldn't just drink casually. Let's drink drinks instead, eat peanuts and drinks.
We can talk about the same things.
Wang Xiaoshu also said while drinking at this time: "You are a bit unkind. What I'm here to discuss with you is big business worth millions. If you don't treat me well to a restaurant outside, but
Well, no matter what the reason is, you always have to tell me, right?
Otherwise, I have been really unbearable for so many days. Do you think about it, is this kind of thing right? I am a guest, good guy, you just sent me away with a few bottles of drinks and a plate of peanuts, you are too
Stingy, right?
In fact, you should know in your heart that you won't be retaliating against me because of what I asked you to do. I don't think you should be so stingy.
This is not beneficial to both parties."
At this time, Ye Ming didn't feel embarrassed at all, but immediately replied: "What do you think is possible about me plotting against you? Do you think it is possible?"
In such a situation, I really didn’t mean to target you on purpose. There is really no food today. Normally, no matter what, there is still chicken, duck, and fish at home. There is absolutely no problem with the two hard dishes.
…
But, wasn't it just two days ago that I went out to do a little special promotion? Most of the food in the refrigerator at home was broken, and I hadn't gone out to buy it yet. Didn't you just catch up?
You said I wanted to drag you to the hotel, but it won't work for a while. Well, I'm actually afraid of attracting attention, so when you say this in such a situation, I think it seems so...
I'm a little embarrassed.
But, it doesn't matter in our relationship, drinking water is no problem.
For example, on this matter, I have already told you that I will not participate too much in promoting things. I won’t say that I won’t participate. After all, it is my album and I still want to promote it well. However, some things are not
You can refuse it casually.
That's okay. You see, I don't have time, right? If I were here in the capital, I might participate in some promotions when I have time, but you want to go to other places to run events.
Good guy, I may not be back for 10 days and half a month. This is a delay. You also know that I took over a shooting job such as a poetry conference. In any case, I feel that unless something else big happens, otherwise
If so, then I should actually be better able to complete the work I promised.
Poetry conferences should actually be treated well. After all, they have a kind of responsibility.
I want to finish this job.
Of course, I'm not saying that I won't promote my album. It would be better to arrange it as close to Beijing as possible, because I really don't have time.
I actually want to go on various variety shows to promote it. After all, it is my first album and it means a lot to me. But at this time, it is impossible for the government to take care of both. Before this, I have already worked with
You have said it.
I will definitely participate in some major events in Beijing that we have signed a contract with, but other times it is related to sports promotion, so it is hard to say.
I try my best to participate in some things that I can't refuse, but there is no way. I can't spend all my time on publicity. These are publicity activities outside the capital that are written in the contract in black and white. I can refuse to participate.
, there is no way around it.
I also think that one of my albums can sell better, but there is no way. I think about it at this time and think about poetry conferences. This is indeed one of the top ten conferences. What about the sales volume of our album?
, which also has a very great promoting effect.
There is definitely no problem with this. Just like the two songs "The Wind Blows" and "The Sound of the Waves Still Sound", they were also sung for the first time at the Poetry Conference, right?
It does have a certain promotion effect on our album sales. There is no problem with this, but it’s not like I don’t know, right?
It's impossible for you to say that the poetry conference took up all your time at once. The swearing-in conference is only broadcast once a week, even if it is broadcast live, right?
Add in other time, and the conferences will take up three days of your time. One day for rehearsal, one day for live broadcast, and one day for summary. This is enough time to participate in the recording program of the real-time conference. Strictly speaking, in fact, the poetry conference
Two days is almost enough.
How about your seven days a week? If you go to a poetry conference for two days, is it okay to give you three days? For three days, you will be busy at a poetry conference. The remaining four days will be spent on promotions as long as you don’t go abroad.
I think everyone is a beneficiary. This is a very simple thing. You can go to any place in the country to promote it in 4 days, so it is a bit inappropriate for you to explain the time now, right?
Besides, this is your first album. Although it is published by our company, as the owner, you have to cooperate with the promotion. If it sells well, then you will also be honored, right?
You can't say that you only rely on our company to promote the album. If you don't go as the director, how do you ask our company to promote it? This is basically a publicity plan built around you. You should cooperate a little bit. I understand before
When the contract was signed, the promotion was only arranged in Beijing, but you can't arrange all the activities in Beijing. You have to go to other local satellite TV stations, right?
Nowadays, you have to go to some important city promotions. You have so many fans waiting for you. If you don’t go, it will seem a bit unhuman.
It is true that some of our company's staff can replace you in some jobs, but for real promotion, it is impossible for our staff to replace you. After all, it is your album. At this time, you should be considerate of our work.
If you go to promote it, the sales of the album will be better. If you don't go, it will definitely delay the sales. That's for sure.
You are also an old man in the entertainment industry. I think you should know that there is a huge difference between promoting an album and not promoting it. You should be aware of this, so I think you should pay close attention to it.
Publicity matters.
This conference does not mean that no one will be allowed to participate and sign a contract, and no one will dare to refuse casually, but what about after this conference, right?
You have to care more or less about your album. These are the songs on your album. This is not someone else’s album, so I’m more anxious. My dear, now I’m even more anxious than you. There are many people in the company.
He reported to me that your propaganda is really too careless. Even when it comes to publicity in the capital, you are not particularly careless.
At this time, Ye Ming immediately retorted and said that this was definitely a rumor. As long as it was political propaganda, I must be very careful.
This is my first album, right? I also hope to have a good result, so at this time, who is making up the rumor that I don’t care at the scene? Please help me beat him up.
Of course, the two days you mentioned to complete the entry-level work for the Poetry Conference is actually about the same. Three days per day is also a relatively normal range. If you said seven days a week is normal, I have to spare more time.
4 days, yes, if I watch the recording and complete the poetry conference according to a normal situation, then I do have 4 days.
However, I don’t just have a job like the Poetry Conference. I also have another job, and I also have to participate in some censorship work for the Spring Festival Gala.
So, I don’t have time anymore, but the poetry conference doesn’t take up all my time, but I can’t slack off at the Spring Festival Gala. I can’t waste a good opportunity.
If you think about it, being able to attend the Spring Festival Gala is such a rare opportunity, right? I will definitely seize it."
At this time, Wang Xiaoshu was stunned for a moment and said incredulously: "Has the work for the Spring Festival Gala begun?
No, it’s only half a year, there’s still more than half a year before the Spring Festival Gala, right? Could it be that the Spring Festival Gala crew has already started working?”
Ye Ming said there: "Yes, it is true that the work of the Vehicle Administration Bureau has begun, but there is no large-scale publicity now. The director of this year's Spring Festival Gala and the director of the Poetry Conference are the same, both Director Huang,
Didn’t I sing two songs at the poetry conference?
The strong wind and the sound of the waves are still there.
Director Huang also thought that the song I sang was very good, so he invited me to participate in an event like the Spring Festival Gala some time ago. So, if you think about it, I am
If I have extra time, I have to spend it with the Spring Festival Gala crew.
Otherwise, when I signed the contract, why did I tell your company that it would be best to arrange such a publicity event here in Beijing to avoid delays?
Think about it, if I was not in the capital when the Spring Festival Gala crew called me, I don’t think I would have much chance to attend the Spring Festival Gala. If I were in the capital, I could directly accept the invitation from the DMV.
Drive there, it won't waste time.
So, why was it specifically stated when signing the contract with your company that it is best not to exceed the spirit when promoting it?
There is actually a reason for this.
I don’t have much time. At least I have to wait until this week has passed and the Spring Festival Gala crew’s review of me has almost passed the preliminary review. Then I can relax a little. Otherwise, at this time, I think the poetry conference and the Spring Festival Gala are more important.
Some, so you can just watch the promotion of my album.
Of course, the most important thing is for me to promote it, but at least not now. Maybe we can talk about it in a week and continue to promote such a thing, but now, we can't do that."
Wang Xiaoshu was stunned and said: "Really or not, Spring Festival Gala?"
