Chapter 293: Big Red and Big Purple
"You can rest assured about this."

Wang Jinhua smiled and said:
“Girls’ Generation can be regarded as the first girl group in mainland China and is still highly anticipated by the market and fans.

Recently, Qianqian Jingting promoted it on the homepage, and the effect was quite good. Subsequent cooperation with the three major operators is also being promoted.

The physical sales were surprising, exceeding 10,000 copies on the first day, so we had to rush production..."

Although Girls' Generation released an EP album mainly through online streaming, the physical album CD was still released on the market.

Mainly for listeners or fans to collect.

However, many singers’ physical albums are no longer selling well nowadays.

Even if it is a first-line brand, the number of copies sold is only around 300,000 to 400,000.

So the original plan was to produce only 30,000 copies of this album.

Now it seems that even doubling the efforts may not be enough.

Two days later, Du Sheng left the publicity and promotion team and flew back to Beijing from the mountain city.

After getting off the plane, Du Sheng did not return to his residence here. Instead, he put on sunglasses and a mask and took a car to the cultural building in the HD area.

Before the vehicle got close to the destination, the driver started to remind us:
“Young man, that’s the Cultural Building, but the car can only go so far.

There was a celebrity signing event over there today, and it was packed with people, and I couldn’t even squeeze in.”

Du Sheng looked ahead, about a few dozen meters away, and sure enough, there was a huge crowd of people.

He smiled, got off the car and walked, and saw a long queue winding at the entrance of the Cultural Building from afar.

Guided by the direction signs, the crowd zigzagged around like a snake.

Most of the faces in the team are young, mainly students, and there are many staff members on site to provide guidance.

This evening, Girls' Generation held a signing event here.

Du Sheng originally planned to sneak into the team and give a surprise attack to the girls.

Just taking a look at the long dragon, he quickly dismissed the idea.

Du Sheng asked Wang Yaoyang to buy some drinks and took out his cell phone to contact Liu Xiaoli.

Not long after, Liu Xiaoli, who looked like an agent, appeared from the side and waved at Du Sheng from afar.

Du Sheng came closer and looked at her carefully.

Although long shirts and long pants are very suitable for this weather and cover up tightly, they actually have a mature charm when worn by Liu Xiaoli.

Du Sheng looked at Liu Xiaoli's increasingly bright and rosy face and said with a smile:
"Sister Li, judging from your expression, the medicine I gave you last time was effective, right? Shouldn't we thank you for this?"

Liu Xiaoli rolled her eyes at him.

But it is true.

Ever since he took the "Body Tempering Pill" given by Du Sheng, not only has his complexion become rosy, but his physical condition and spirit have also improved a lot.

It's really magical.

Seeing that there was no one around in the corridor, she walked up to him and gave him a grand welcome without being shy.

Unexpectedly, Du Sheng laughed, hugged her, and felt the tenderness and fragrance very well before letting go.

"Sister Li, the way you dress today, aren't you thinking you're too pretty and need to cover it up?"

Liu Xiaoli could naturally hear the joke, she smiled and responded as she walked:
"Your elixir and eucalyptus massage technique are a bit magical. There are a lot of annoying suitors recently, so I can only dress low-key."

Along the way, Du Sheng has received feedback from Fan Bingbing, Liu Tao, Jia Jingwen and Gao Yuanyuan.

The elixirs given away in the lucky draw of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" are indeed extraordinary.

Take Liu Tao, for example, who is a novice but loves to play. He could only practice martial arts for 20 minutes at most before, but last night he actually persisted for 30 minutes.

Liu Xiaoli's physical condition is also very obvious now.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that she was a young woman of eighteen or twenty-nine years old.

Girlish face, mature body!

Coupled with her unique temperament, it is inevitable that she will become the focus of everyone's attention.

Especially since she has been traveling around with Girls' Generation recently, Liu Xiaoli has deliberately chosen simple outfits to avoid unnecessary trouble.

After hearing what Liu Xiaoli said, Du Sheng thought for a moment and said:
“Remember to bring along the retired female soldiers we recruited for you when you participate in similar activities in the future.

As for those unnecessary social activities, try to push them to the company if possible.

Xixi and her friends released the album mainly out of interest, so don’t add any extra burden.”

Liu Xiaoli nodded:

"Don't worry about this, the company is also following up.

And with Jinhua’s connections, the people involved in the album release were very polite.”

Du Sheng thought for a moment and said:

"Jing Zhi intervened earlier and got Xixi's nationality back, right?"

A smile appeared on Liu Xiaoli's lips:
"Not only did she get her nationality back, but Jinfei also gave her face and only spent a little money to get her contract with Miracle Studios."

At first, she thought it would be better to retain her foreign nationality as it had advantages in all aspects.

After all, many people nowadays have a stubborn idea that "the moon is rounder abroad."

Claiming to be Chinese can make you feel superior to others.

But Du Sheng's words directly dispelled her idea:
"Sissi is a star and will become even more popular in the future. The Chinese people's concept will also be improved, and the nationality issue will rise to a dispute between the two countries.

Most importantly, she is developing in her own country, but she is paying taxes to the beacon country for nothing. What kind of logic is this?"

As for Hongwu Film and Television, since they signed a contract for a few years at the beginning, Xixi's fame has increased significantly.

No matter who it is, it is impossible to let go easily.

Now the contract has been changed to a 50-50 split between the two companies, which only costs a small amount of money and is considered very reasonable.

As they were talking, the two came to a fenced area.

This is the activity area specially designated for the book signing event in the Art Building. Liu Yifei, Yang Mi, Liu Shishi and Tang Yan, four girls, are sitting in a row at a long table signing autographs for fans.

Looking at the way he happily took photos with fans, he was obviously enjoying it.

Liu Xiaoli glanced at Du Sheng and said with a smile:

"You've finally come here, why don't you show up?"

Du Sheng shook his head slightly:

"Forget it, let them concentrate on finishing this part. There are so many fans here today, and the four of them can't handle it anymore."

He also released a physical album of "Ten Thousand Reasons". Wang Jinhua had previously asked him if he wanted to hold a book signing event, but he declined at the time.

There’s no way, I’m already very busy, I can only make up for it later.

Despite this, based solely on his personal fame, his physical albums are currently selling quite well in mainland China.

Liu Xiaoli said with emotion:

“They are already used to it, and today is already the group’s fifth autograph session.

Girls' Generation became busy from the first day of the album's release, during which signings and announcements were indispensable.

But they work hard and are quite happy with themselves.”

Although Girls' Generation's self-titled album has only been on the market for a week, it has sold well in the Hong Kong region.

According to the current situation, sales are expected to exceed 8 copies within a month.

Don't underestimate this number; it is an outstanding achievement for a newly formed group.

Take Du Sheng for example. He is a top-tier singer in the Hong Kong region, but the sales of his first album since its release are only 15.

There is no way. The total population of the Hong Kong region is only 30 million, and the physical market is impacted by streaming media. It will only continue to decline in the future.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that Du Sheng did not participate in publicity and signing events.

But even Zhou Jielun, the "Tornado" who is known as the new king of the music scene, only sold 30 copies of the physical album released in the Bay City this year.

And this can be said to have swept across the Chinese music scene with a force as powerful as thunder.

If physical albums want to achieve greater sales, the key still lies in the mainland market.

Although the current piracy problem in the mainland is serious, the mainland market has broad prospects and a large population is an advantage.

According to Wang Jinhua, Girls' Generation's new album has a chance of selling over 10 copies in mainland China.

This result is quite amazing.

After all, the sales volume of Du Sheng’s physical album is only around 20 copies.

This is also thanks to the promotion of Star Media, Qianqian Jingting and the three major operators.

Otherwise, this number would probably be halved.

However, the album is not priced high, and Du Sheng doesn't expect to make money from it, so he doesn't mind.

Liu Xiaoli took Du Sheng to sit aside and said:

"Entertainment Studio estimates that if Girls' Generation puts more effort into charting and promoting, the total sales of this album may exceed the 20 mark."

Du Sheng looked at the busy figures of Liu Yifei and the other three and said with emotion:
“This sales volume was completely expected.

Even if Girls' Generation's songs are not outstanding, the popularity and charm of their four members alone can make countless boys save a few breakfasts and buy an album to collect.

What’s more, the quality of their songs is also top-notch.”

Liu Xiaoli said with deep emotion:
“Sissi originally planned to become an actress, but her acting career has not yet taken off, but she has made a name for herself in the music industry.

Yang Mi, Liu Shishi, and Tang Yan are also very popular. ”

The overall strength of the four-member group Girls' Generation has grown visibly.

Liu Yifei and Yang Mi ranked first and second on the popularity list.

Although Liu Shishi and Tang Yan are newcomers, the former has won the love of many fans with her elegant appearance and the latter with her cheerful and lively attitude.

As the song becomes more popular, Girls' Generation's popularity will surely rise further.

Du Sheng feels quite proud of this.

After all, he created this with his own hands.

If they continue to develop step by step, it is not impossible to surpass Twins and SHE and lead the fashion trend in Asia.

In fact, it is not only Du Sheng and Star Media who are happy about the popularity of Girls' Generation.

Even the major investors of the "Legend of Sword and Fairy" crew were very happy.

Because these four girls are the leading actors, the ratings can be greatly increased.

Girls' Generation's autograph session didn't come to an end until 8pm.

In fact, the book signing was originally scheduled to end an hour and a half ago.
But because fans were still queuing, they couldn't bear to see the fans come happily and leave sadly, so they automatically added time.

After the book signing session ended, the girls finally breathed a sigh of relief and were discussing what to eat.

Liu Yifei rubbed her sore wrist and prepared to call her mother to join her.

Unexpectedly, when I turned around, I saw a familiar figure that I hadn't seen for a long time.

"Ah, my cousin is here!"

Liu Yifei screamed excitedly and quickly threw herself into Du Sheng's arms.

Seeing this, Yang Mi, Liu Shishi and Tang Yan also ran over happily.

They knew very well how busy Du Sheng was, and they still took the time to come here at this time, which was the most powerful support.
