Chapter 108 Hot Sales
After the press conference of the new album and the meeting of fans, the promotion of the new album has just begun. This is only the first step. The following activities are full, and Chen Jin can't stop for a moment.
The effect of the press conference of the new album was good. The next day, the media praised him. He Zidong of Oriental Daily said that he was already a superstar. The wild and charming tearing action perfectly drove the emotions of the fans on the scene. This is the kind of superstar's spirit of controlling the scene. The field.
The affair with Li Jiaxin is still being speculated. No matter how the parties deny it, the media think that the two of them have fallen in love. A few days later, when Chen Jin went to wireless to do propaganda, he happened to meet Li Jiaxin again. The two of them couldn't help but say a few words, but this became evidence of their secret dating, TV and newspapers. Don't mention the dog blood mentioned above. Even Chen Jin suspected that the report of the fierce wireless deliberately planned the meeting between the two of them.
In addition, because of the appearance of Chen Zichen, Jinchen Records fell into a storm again. The talk about the secret contract was very popular. Fortunately, Polaroid and the senior management of Universal did not talk nonsense in the interview, but it was Chen Jin's personal choice, and everyone should respect it.
There are not many people who know Chen Zichen's identity, but everyone doesn't think too much about it, but Lian Junying and Tang Baoru know Chen Zichen's name, and they know that her identity is a little extraordinary. It is a woman's intuition. After seeing Chen Zichen suddenly become Chen Jin's agent, plus the sudden appearance of Jinchen Records, It is inevitable to be aware of it.
Chen Jin's explanation is that the company is indeed wireless. Chen Zichen's agent is also one of the conditions for the company to fully support him, and the contract is relatively harsh, but he does not have so much scruples in order to give full play to his ability.
Although Lian Junying hesitated, she still believed him. Tang Baoru said something in Jin Chen's name. After all, she knew the world better than Lian Junying. When Chen Jin answered by coincidence, she just snorted coldly and warned him not to let Lian Junying be hurt.
In the midst of turmoil, November 18, Sunday, the auspicious day of the zodiac, Chen Jin's first album "First Intimate Contact" officially released.
I didn't have to go to work on the weekend, but the company's employees arrived, and the next moment dispersed again. I just went to various places to keep an eye on the sales of records. This is Chen Jin's first battle, the company's first battle, and everyone's first battle.
In the end, there were only Chen Jin, Chen Zichen, Chen Shaowen and several of their assistants. Chen Jin played a record into the player, listened to the wonderful voice in it, shook his head, and saw Chen Zichen's haggard face. He felt pity, smiled, and broke the temporary silence. "Such a good record, so Good cover, such a good song, etc., even if I want to buy one myself, there is no reason for those who love music not to buy it.
After all, Chen Shaowen is an old fox, and he understands, "Yes, my seventh brother's signboard is still quite good. Now the publicity is so powerful that it is almost overwhelming with the news of the launch of KING's new album. This time the distribution is also very good. It's the first time I've seen Hua Xing work so hard."
Chen Zichen was a little worried about gains and losses at this time. She squeezed her pink lips and said hesitantly, "Will the price be a little higher?"
Chen Jin didn't wait for Chen Shaowen to speak and waved his hand, "What kind of thing is that? He is willing to pay 100 yuan. He doesn't care about spending more than ten yuan. We are still an auspicious number, which is in line with today. It can be said that there is no disadvantage!"
The lowest price of a record now is 100 Hong Kong dollars, and the higher ones are 120, 150. Of course, there are higher ones, but they are all American English albums, and there are also some pure music albums. And these prices refer to the price of a single disc, and the price of a double disc is generally 188.
This price system was not broken by Huaxing Records' active price reduction in 1995, when the lowest price became 88 yuan, and the others were reduced accordingly.
Sometimes, the strength and popularity of singers can also be seen from the price of records. For example, the albums of Zhang Guorong and Anita Mui are generally 120. Now most of the albums of Xueyou and Hua Zai are also 120, and 100 yuan is naturally the most popular ones.
With this in mind, after discussion between Chen Jin, Chen Shaowen and Chen Zichen, it was finally determined with Zheng Hesheng to set the price of Chen Jin's record at a very clever price of 118 yuan.
Originally, the pricing power of the record was in the hands of the distributor, but with Chen Zichen, it was naturally different. Of course, Zheng Hesheng was actually very satisfied with the price.
Chen Shaowen also said at this time, "There is no problem with this price at all. According to my opinion, it is directly one hundred and fifty, which shows the value of me and KING."
Chen Jin made a final tone, "Well, it's useless to think too much. You'll know when today's data comes out." He turned his head and asked Chen Shaowen, "Brother Seven, how many copies on the first day is not bad."
Chen Shaowen is obviously very clear. He doesn't have to think about it, but he didn't answer directly: "From the perspective of this region, record sales are generally based on the sales volume on the first day, then the sales volume of the first week, and finally the sales volume of the first month. After a month, the second month or even after that, it is actually very weak. It depends on the overseas market. The results of the field."
paused, "If we can pay 5,000 yuan on the first day, it means that our double platinum is no problem. If it is only 1,000 yuan, it is probably a gold record. Of course, this is not absolute. Some records do not work until later..."
Chen Jin smiled and asked, "How much did Sister Fang buy on the first day of the album that sold eight platinum?" That record was played by the guy in front of him for Sister Fang five years ago. Naturally, he knew it clearly and looked at Chen Jin jokingly, "What, do you still want eight platinum?"
Instead, he changed his tone again, "To be honest, this record has the strength of eight platinum, but your popularity and acceptance are still a little poor. If two years later, there will be no problem with this."
Chen Jin pretended to be arrogant, "Two years later, two years later, I have to look at the ten platinum." At this time, Chen Zichen finally couldn't help pinching him. The boy became more and more proud, but in fact, everything is not accurate now.
At ten o'clock in the evening, the nightlife officially began. At this time, it was also the time when most stores began to close. After all, there were not many people who were open all night, and there were not many people who went to buy records in the middle of the night.
The distributor is Huaxing Records. It is impossible for Chen Jin and others to know how the sales are at the first time, but today's sales are very hot, but it is true, and there are plenty of goods everywhere, and there are not too many shortages.
At 10:30, everyone did not go back and waited patiently. At this time, Chen Zichen's eldest brother rang loudly and couldn't wait to pick up the phone. The next moment, he showed a surprise that could not be hidden.
After hanging up the phone, he pretended to be reserved and compared two fingers to Chen Jin and Chen Shaowen. It looked like the famous victory gesture, which confused Chen Shaowen. Chen Jin was in the same heart and his heart was beating wildly. He pretended to curl his lips disdainfully. "What? It's only 2,000. It seems that I'd better not to do this job. It's so sad."
Chen Zichen also understood what the bad guy guessed, but she still couldn't hide the surprise that exceeded her psychological expectations. She said coquettishly, "What two thousand? It's 20,000, and it's more than a thousand."
The company colleagues who were waiting for the news cheered. It was more than 20,000 yuan. Chen Shaowen was also stunned for a moment, but finally grinned and patted Chen Jin on the shoulder: "Kid, maybe there may be a surprise this time, but today is Sunday. It depends on the details of the day after tomorrow."
Chen Zichen also suppressed her joy at this time and said, "Yes, that's what Zheng Sheng told me. The next week is the most important." Saying that, I was still overjoyed. There were more than 20,000 pieces a day, which was quite crazy. The pressure I suffered these days could be temporarily relieved. Finally, I couldn't help saying to myself, "Even so, it's very good!"
