Chapter 483 Nonsense!

At the same time, Ling Junjie's album was also released in mainland China!
This is really close to the face output.

Even if many people don't buy them, they are paying attention to the sales of these two albums.

The competition between four well-known singers of the same period also swept the screen.

F.I.R’s album was released last week, and has sold over 7.8 copies in Taiwan and 4 copies in Mainland China.

Luo Zhixiang’s personal album was released on the 2nd, and currently has sales of 3.9 in Taiwan and nearly 2 in mainland China.

For the time being, their results are pretty good, without too many surprises, but not to the point of losing money either.

The former can at least reach the platinum level in Bay City, and the latter will have no problem breaking 5.

But both albums seem to lack stamina.

There is usually a rule in record sales that sales in the first three days after a record is put on the shelves account for more than 40% of the total sales for that month.

The first day is especially critical, which is called the "golden 24 hours" rule.

Although Luo Zhixiang’s performance is still far from being a big hit, it is his first album after all, and the nature of the album is a bit of a copycat, so he is quite satisfied with it.

It’s just that their performance somewhat disappointed the spectators.

I was expecting a fierce competition, but the first one turned out to be so mediocre.

As a result, everyone's attention fell on Du Sheng and Ling Junjie's new albums.

Let’s see if the two of them get really angry again, or even expose some dirty tricks.

However, in terms of publicity and promotion, Ling Junjie's efforts far surpass those of Du Sheng.

The album cover has been on the homepage of Kugou Music and Qianqian Jingting for a week, and has been played on all major TV stations. It is a model of how rich and willful people can be.

In comparison, Du Sheng does seem quite low-key, with not many large-scale TV advertisements.

It mainly relies on the four major social platforms and some offline newspaper interviews and reports.

As for the phrase "If we have to fight, why hide our heads and show our tails?", it has been very popular on the platform, but how much actual effect has it had?

Many people were skeptical, including Ling Junjie himself.

After all, it’s okay for spectators to watch the show, but it’s almost a consensus that if they want to pay, forget it.

When the album was released, Ling Junjie was in a five-star hotel in Guangzhou.

Driven by his desire to win, he has run dozens of promotional notices during this period.

Today alone, he held live events at two shopping malls and a nightclub chain in Yangcheng.

It was already 19 p.m. when I returned to the hotel. Although I was tired, I was very excited.

At this moment, he was staring at the computer screen, closely following the download sales of his and Du Sheng's albums on the homepages of Kugou Music and Qianqian Jingting.

At the beginning, "Yi Sheng You Ni" was in the lead, but now "Cang Huang" has overtaken it!

It now seems that the huge investment in music websites has produced good results.

Ling Junjie showed a smug smile on his face and went to eat with peace of mind.

It was not until 21 p.m. that he said goodbye to his friends who came to congratulate him and returned.

There weren't many announcements tomorrow, so even though he was a little tipsy, he wasn't in a hurry to rest.

After washing up, Ling Junjie sat down in front of the computer desk.

Can't wait to check the album sales and make a few blog posts.

He unbuttoned his collar, revealing his tender white skin, and prepared to take a few photos with a few words of emotion, which would most likely excite his fans and even get them to support him again.

Of course, due to previous grudges, he could not let go of the opportunity to suppress his opponent.

He considered his words and decided to make a sarcastic remark.

But at this moment, the agent Sister Ya came in:

"You drank too much tonight, drink some sobering tea to moisten your body."

Ling Junjie was posing for photos with the warm smile familiar to fans, saying:
"It's okay, I'll take a look at the overall sales first..."

Sister Ya hesitated for a moment, put down the teacup and said:

"You'd better drink it first, otherwise insomnia will affect your schedule tomorrow."

Ling Junjie heard something wrong in the tone, frowned and asked:

"what happened?"

Sister Ya forced herself to maintain a smile and replied:
"Nothing, just sober up first."

Seeing that the computer was still on, Ling Junjie turned around and stared at her:
"You don't look like you're okay."

He suddenly remembered something and asked:
"It can't be the album sales, is it? Are the results fluctuating a lot?"

Sister Ya waved her hand and said:

"No, your friend also said at dinner just now that sales are increasing rapidly."

This is not right!
Ling Junjie is not a fool. With such a huge investment in "Canghuang", isn't it normal for the sales to be high? Why should he emphasize it specifically?

The agent's reaction was not right.

He didn't ask any more questions. He held the mouse, opened the browser, and quickly logged into Kugou Music.

Ling Junjie opened the homepage and instantly locked onto the weekly sales chart, with "Cang Huang" occupying the top spot.

Although the album has only been online for three hours, its sales performance is already impressive, with 22852 copies sold.

Its performance on the Qianqian Jingting platform is also quite good, with nearly 20,000 downloads.

Judging from the current situation, big sales are a foregone conclusion!

In the mainland market, Kugou and Qianqian Jingting are currently the largest music platforms.

If a new album can achieve more than 50,000 paid downloads on the first day, it can be called a hot seller.

If it exceeds 100,000 views on the first day, it is considered a big hit.

(The entity has no data yet and is not included.)
If the purchase volume can reach 300,000 times in one day, it is not a dream to reach the diamond record level.

A satisfied smile appeared on Ling Junjie's face again.

But the next second, his smile stopped abruptly.

It was as if he was imprisoned by a spell.

Because Ling Junjie discovered that the song following closely on the list was Du Sheng's "Yi Sheng You Ni", with sales of 21282 copies.

If we take into account Qian Qian Jingting’s data, the gap between the two is almost negligible!

How is this possible?
Ling Junjie couldn't believe it. He even rubbed his eyes, thinking that he had a visual error.

As far as he knew, Du Sheng's previous album only sold 8 copies on the first day.

If it weren’t for the explosion of ringback tones, the subsequent total sales would have been at most 300,000 or 400,000.

And this time, in just three hours, the sales volume approached 4, and so close to itself?
Ling Junjie suddenly remembered something and said in a deep voice:
“How much sales did the company purchase for me?”

It is no longer a secret that we produce and sell our own products.

In order to create the illusion of hot sales, brokerage firms usually invest money to increase sales and include it in the promotional expenses.

Since the funds invested are real, music websites do not interfere with such behavior.

After all, they are pure profit.

But there are techniques to purchasing sales. Some people will choose to purchase sales on the first day or within three hours, while others will evenly distribute them over a few days.

Just like the F.I.R. and Show Luo released a few days ago, they obviously also adopted this strategy.

It’s just a matter of whether you will be seen as a fool if you invest more or less.

Take Luo Zhixiang for example. Although he is a top-tier celebrity in Bay Area, it is his first time in the music industry after all. How could he possibly sell 4 albums in just a few days?

Ling Junjie is a second-generation wealthy man, and his company Ocean Butterflies Music is also known for its strong financial strength.
This album cost two million just for promotion, so it was inevitable to spend money to buy some sales to boost reputation.

Sister Ya's eyes flickered and she remained silent.

An inexplicable anger surged into Ling Junjie's heart.

He slammed the sobering tea over and shouted:
"Tell me quickly!"

Sister Ya's body trembled slightly and said:

"Fifteen thousand."

Fifteen thousand copies!

After learning this number, Ling Junjie's expression became distorted.

If this part of the sales is deducted, the actual sales volume of "Canghuang" is less than 3 copies!

If Du Sheng did not purchase sales, it would mean that he lost to his opponent from the very beginning!
Sister Ya sighed in her heart and said:
"Du Sheng probably also did it, otherwise the sales volume wouldn't be so high."

Is it really?

She couldn't convince herself.

Because Du Sheng is different from Ling Junjie, Du Sheng is an all-rounder and will not focus on one aspect.

If he chose to increase sales just to defeat Ling Junjie, how much money would he need to invest?
Will Du Sheng get into a fight with Ling Junjie just to vent his anger?
Ling Junjie seemed to have found a trace of comfort, and nodded with more emphasis:

"Based on his last album, the sales this time have almost doubled, it must have topped the charts!"

My popularity in the music industry is no less than Du Sheng's, and I have invested so much in publicity and promotion. How could the other party surpass me?
It must have been brushed!

After all, this album of his has been carefully polished for a year, with a strong team lineup and overwhelming publicity.

How could there be such a big gap?

However, out of reluctance, Ling Junjie spent thirteen yuan to buy Du Sheng's album and listened to it song by song.

……

Has anyone ever told you that I love you?
Has anyone ever cried in your diary?
Has anyone ever told you that I care?
Care about the distance of this city

……

I am entangled with you, flying

Fly across this world, stay with me forever

Wait till the autumn wind blows and the autumn leaves fall into piles

I have no regrets to wither with you~
Thirty minutes later, Lin Junjie quietly turned off the computer and remained silent.

He finally understood why Du Sheng's albums sold so well. This guy was simply a monster.

A violent thing!
There are 5 songs, and almost every one of them can be used as a hit.

If these songs were handed over to him, releasing three or two albums within a year would not be a problem, and they would definitely dominate the charts.

But Du Sheng spent all his money on an album as if it didn’t cost any money. Is this confidence or arrogance?

……

"Brushing the rankings?"

At the same time, Du Sheng, who had just finished a day's journey, wondered:

"Why can't I do anything else with this money? Why do I have to give it to others in this way?"

The person who called Du Sheng was Ling Zhiying.

He asked Du Sheng whether he had spent money to brush up the charts on Kugou and Qianqian Jingting.

Du Sheng was at a loss whether to laugh or cry about this.

This is sheer nonsense.

The biggest reason why he created the album was to gain some reputation.

What's the point of manipulating the charts other than making it look better on the surface?

What's more, he is developing in all aspects, so there is no need for him to spend this money.

If he had money, he would rather spend it on publicity and promotion, which would definitely be much better than buying charts.

Because it was not yet the era of traffic, most of the potential fans of his movies, TV shows, and boxing matches didn’t know that he had released a new album.

As long as the publicity is rolled out and the attention of these fans is attracted, there will naturally be a steady stream of sales.

That’s why the previous album sold less than 8 copies on the first day, but as time went by and piracy became rampant, it still managed to break one million.

This would never happen to other first-line artists.

This is his solid foundation, commonly known as thick blood.

It is also a huge gap between him and other young students.

Ling Zhiying replied with a smile on the other end of the phone:

“I guessed that was the case, but some people were too paranoid to believe it.

I have to call you because I owe you a favor. Since there is no such thing, that’s fine.”
