China Entertainment 2000

180,000 pieces, even if you put aside those fractions of several thousand pieces, there are still a full 180,000 pieces.

Even Zhou Yi, who single-handedly controlled the entire marketing plan, could not help but hold his head in disbelief when he saw this number.

This number greatly exceeded his estimate.

At the beginning, he expected that after a series of marketing promotions, he could sell about 200,000 to 250,000 in Baodao in about a week.

After all, now is the time when he is at his most popular, and the stickiness of his fans has been refined to the point where he can't be improved after rounds of "fan abuse".

But, he thought that he would be surprised after this wave of forced purification, but he never expected that it would be such a big surprise.

"If you say now that you are going to sue the people on Baodao Island who restrict you, I'm afraid Zhou Jianhui will not do what you say."

Qian Jiang, who was so happy that he could hardly see his little eyes, suppressed the excitement surging in his heart: "Do you know how much psychological shock your company has received by selling 180,000 genuine copies this day?

"To give you an example, last year Wang Fei's album "Fable" only sold 175,000 copies in Baodao; the single "Courage" that once competed with you for the top spot on the list, the album of the same name has only sold 175,000 copies in Baodao last year. Nearly 200,000 copies were sold.

"Wu Bai's "Movie Song Collection" sold 130,000 yuan;

"You Hongming's album "Xiasha" sold 120,000, and Xu Huaiyu's "Love" sold 120,000;

"Even Gigi Leung's "Gigi Leung's Favorite Selection" only has 110,000 copies, and PolyGram Prince Cheng Zhongji's "Love You New Songs + Selection" only has a pitiful 100,000 copies."

In the new century, when the Baodao music market is dwindling due to the impact of piracy, even the Baodao music scene, which once had more than a million dollars, is still celebrating the New Year, and every year is worse than the previous year.

In 2000, the entire Baodao music scene released more than 140 serious studio albums, but only 27 sold more than 100,000 copies.

This is a scary number.

The sales of the top singers are still good, with sales of hundreds of thousands and hundreds of thousands, but the singers behind can only barely drink soup...

Now that the music market is in chaos, the siphon effect of the top singers in the Baodao music scene has become more and more obvious.

Against this background, Zhouyi's sales of 180,000 yuan on this day cannot be said to be shocking, at least it can be said to be unique.

After this result came out, all the criticism within Warner about Zhou Jianhui's support of Zhou Yi's lawsuit disappeared.

Even Warner executives, who were worried that Zhou Yizhen would be distracted by the lawsuit, thoughtfully allocated ten more elite lawyers to Zhou Yi's legal storm. Together with those who had joined before him, a total of seventeen lawyers were formed. Luxury lawyer team.

It doesn't matter whether we file a lawsuit or not.

It doesn't matter whether it's money or not, the main thing is not to frighten our baby Zhou Yi.

June 10th.

When all the accused media editors in Baodao turned green, Warner's reinforcements arrived instantly. They were pursued fiercely because they were spreading rumors and breaking the law, and there was no sign of mercy.

The most important thing is: Warner also fucking announces it to the world, and makes a fucking announcement every time it wins a game, causing this group of melon-eaters in Baodao to stop watching the entertainment version every day and start watching the legal version - —

Zhou Yi's photos, name and new album became a representative of "representing justice and resisting injustice" under Warner's full-scale bombardment, and he gained a large number of fans.

Still a fan who will buy the album.

Especially the group of students in Baodao who were prone to getting emotional easily had to go to the streets to perform traditional arts and hold banners to protest Baodao's injustice to Zhou Yi.

It is against this background that on June 11, less than a week after the album was released, the eleven songs in Zhouyi's album began to massacre on major charts.

The fans of Baodao Zhouyi, who have been holding back their anger, are now fighting with amazing strength. Starting from the 100th place on the radio chart for the first time, in just two days, "Jiangnan", "Back to Back Hug", "Big City Little" Four songs, "Love" and "Love Me or Him", directly entered the top ten.

Elva Hsiao's "The Sun Never Sets", which ranked tenth, was knocked out of the top ten. The positions of "Fable", which ranked ninth, and "Little Lucky", which ranked eighth, were also in jeopardy.

Because there is also "Meteor Garden", an opponent of the same monster level, on the ranking list, Zhouyi fans who felt troubled made strategic decisions to give up after communicating in major chat rooms——

Specializing in "Jiangnan", "Big City Little Love" and "Back to Back Hug", these three songs are gradually spreading in the streets and alleys.

"Love Me or Him" ​​just needs to hold on to its top ten spot.

In terms of popularity required to hit the charts, "Love Me or Him" ​​is still not as good as the above three songs.

On the contrary, on the KTV singing list, "Love Me or Him" ​​is ahead of "Back to Back Hug" and "Big City, Little Love", second only to "Jiangnan".

On June 13, one week after the release of Zhou Yi's second album "Jiangnan", Warner officially announced Zhou Yi's terrifying sales volume of genuine albums——

403,621 copies were sold in the Mainland, directly breaking the first-week album sales record in the Mainland music scene!

Hong Kong sold 162,150 copies, breaking the first-week album sales record for mainland artists in Hong Kong, and also sold a record 210,000 photo albums...

In Treasure Island, which is the most turbulent and controversial place and also has the most purified crystalline powder, Zhou Yi's second album "Jiangnan" sold a jaw-dropping 302,300 copies!

In one week, three hundred thousand were sold.

Last year, Tao Zhe only sold more than 420,000 copies of the specialization he sold for a year.

If we just look at this wave of sales data from Zhouyi, I am afraid that some people would believe that this is not 2001, but a golden age when the Chinese music scene has not been affected by piracy.

The combined first-week sales in the three places across the Taiwan Strait totaled more than 860,000. Even in the golden age of the Chinese music scene, the first-week sales of Zhou Yi's album could rival those of the gods standing at the top of the pyramid.

"No matter how rampant piracy becomes in the future, it is certain that your album will sell one million copies within a month. You can even win the Asian Sales Award."

Zhou Jianhui recently felt like he was almost floating into the sky when he walked. When he saw Zhou Yi's face, he smiled like a sunflower.

This is a treasure that has bucked the trend in a bad market environment. It is considered a treasure for any company, and one of them should be highly valued.

He, Zhou Jianhui, has a sharp eye and knows the pearls, and he hugs both of them.

Although Stefanie Sun is not as eye-catching as Zhou Yi, at least in the field of female singers, her sales have increased against the previous version.

It is true that there is smoke coming out of the ancestral grave.

"In order to stimulate genuine sales, the company will continue to buy marketing drafts for you, but you still have to run the publicity that should be done. Especially now that you can't go to Baodao for publicity, the mainland and Hong Kong are the top priorities. It's heavy.

"Especially Hong Kong. This time your explosion in Hong Kong surprised everyone. Your photo album is also the best-selling in Hong Kong. They are more interested in your fashion elements."

When it came to the photo album, Zhou Jianhui couldn't hold back. He looked at the speechless Zhou Yi up and down, and joked with a smile: "For others, album sales drive photo albums, but for you, it is the photo album that drives album sales."

"..."

Zhou Yi, who never thought that one day he would be targeted by a rich woman, pulled out his chair and sat down angrily: "For the sake of real money, I don't want to say anything.

"But you said that Baodao can't run publicity, but there is still a loophole that can be exploited." Zhou Yi began to use his subjective initiative again with a smile on his lips.

On June 15, when Zhou Yi's album sales were in full swing, Warner officially announced that Zhou Yi needed to return to Baodao to appear in court due to a lawsuit.

Two days later, Zhou Yi, wearing a well-tailored white suit and sunglasses, appeared in front of the Taipei court gate under the protection of a group of bodyguards——

Reporters who had been suffocating since the album was released have crowded in and turned into legal reporters and thrust microphones in front of Zhou Yi:

"Zhouyi Zhouyi! How do you feel about the storm of public opinion you are currently causing in Baodao? Did you do it deliberately or did you do it accidentally?"

"Zhou Yi! Some people call you the most talented singer in this century. What do you think of this title?"

"Zhou Yi Zhou Yi, when do you plan to stop? Do you plan to fight these rumor-mongering media forever? Is there really such deep hatred between you?

"Are you being too reasonable and unforgiving?"

"..."

The reporters who were chattering and worried about missing Zhou Yi's hard-won appearance kept pushing forward. Zhou Yi, who had a hard time walking with the bodyguards on both sides to clear the way, simply stopped before walking up the steps of the court——

Turning around, he looked at the reporters at the foot of the steps and smiled condescendingly: "If you do something wrong, you will be punished. If you break the law, you will be punished. This is the rule.

“I am a law student, I believe in the law, and I firmly believe that Baodao’s law will give me justice.

"Many people say that I am young and energetic, and that I am unreasonable and unforgiving. I don't care. Besides..."

As he spoke, Zhou Yi raised his hand and took off his sunglasses, standing at the door of Baodao Court, facing a kind of Baodao media, with solemnity representing the law behind him, tilted his head slightly, and asked: "Young people are not arrogant. Are you still called a young person?"
