Perfect Life

Vol 2 Chapter 7: climb to the top

readx; Coming back and forth, Liao Liao stayed in Jinan for 15 days in total.

After the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, the Spring Festival Gala on Huaxia TV will begin to enter the final stage of rehearsal. This party is obviously higher than the other three parties, even if it is a superstar of the level of Liu Mingliang and Zhen Zhen, No one dared to put on airs. Of course, Liao Liao had to go back. From the first overall rehearsal, he officially entered the management of the program team.

As Li Qian's agent, this time, Qi Jie will go to Shuntian Prefecture with Liao Liao. On the one hand, she will officially spread her identity as Li Qian's agent through Liao Liao's channels. After that, what will happen? If you want to find Li Qian, you don't have to go around Liao Liao or Cao Zhan. On the other hand, she has to go to Huage Records on behalf of Li Qian to finalize the final details of the cooperation contract between the two parties, such as the payment method. and time and so on.

Then, it is said that the last official recording of the Spring Festival Gala will not be completed until the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month. At that time, Liao Liao will go back to her hometown in Northeast China to celebrate the New Year, while Qi Jie will go back to Jinan. This is because it is said that the above has once again rejected the proposal of live broadcast of the Spring Festival Gala, and continued to use the method of recording and broadcasting. Otherwise, Qi Jie can come back, and Liao Liao has to spend the New Year's Eve in the studio hall of Huaxia TV.

Li Qian had to go to class during the day and could not send her off, so he said goodbye to them the night before.

Everyone ate, drank, talked and laughed together, but there was no sadness about parting. After all, in April of the solar calendar after the new year, Li Qian would definitely go to Shuntianfu to sign up for the professional examinations of several art colleges. In two months, we will be able to meet again.

It goes without saying that Li Qian is mature and has a peaceful mind, although Liao Liao is only in his early twenties. But it's not a sticky temperament. After the incident that made the two of them a little embarrassed that day, the two of them quickly adjusted, whether it was three people eating together, or two people together after that. practice songs. Each other is light and calm, as always talking and laughing, no one will take the initiative to mention anything.

On the contrary, that night, after eating and going back to practice songs for a while, Liao Liao got up to leave and sent her out. Li Qian also washed and quickly lay down and fell asleep. In the middle of the night, Liao Liao suddenly sent a text message: Then, I bit it on purpose!

When he woke up the next morning and saw the text message, Li Qian smiled helplessly.

...

Liao Liao came to Jinan House. Moreover, the matter of staying for more than ten days is almost unknown to the outside world.

Moreover, during her stay in Jinan, apart from causing Li Qian to delay the work of Wang Huaiyu's wedding band a few times, it did not have any impact on Li Qian's study and life.

Even, although it was only half a month, and there were only two weekends off for four days, both of them could fully devote themselves to practicing songs. The rest of the time is only the two hours after dinner and before going to bed, but the two still feel that they have gained a lot. Although the contract has not been officially signed, Li Qian has prepared works for Liao Liao's next album. She has practiced to the point where she can make the final recording at any time, and she actually already has four songs.

I have to say, compared to the five girls who adjusted Wuxing Wusu, it was really much easier to help Liao Liao as a producer.

And this time Liao Liao went back, except for the four songs "Woman Afraid of Darkness", "Wake Up Time", "Ferry" and "High Loess Slope" that he had already practiced. Li Qian also prepared the remaining six songs for her new album, together with all the arrangements. All were handed over to her. In this way, when the New Year is over, Li Qian will go to Shuntian Prefecture to take the professional exam. She estimates that she has already thought about most of the songs. If there are no major problems, she only needs Li Qian to help adjust her feelings before the recording can be officially started.

Well, for Liao Liao's next album, Li Qian named her "The Sound of the Waves".

Just as when Li Qian and Liao Liao talked about this album for the first time, he set the same goals and directions for this album. Li Qian was also cautious about the selection of songs for this album. It was determined that, in addition to ensuring that the selected songs would win Liao Liao's love and be suitable for her to play, as a producer, Li Qian would also try his best to make this album have a variety of styles like a hundred flowers blooming, but without the slightest Not messy.

Of course, after scrutinizing the song selection, Li Qian is still full of confidence in her next album.

After all... those songs are so powerful!

There are "Woman Afraid of Darkness" which continues Liao Liao's previous light rock-style urban love songs, and "Loess High Slope" which continues the northwest style of rural folk songs. Her album will definitely win the first time of a lot of fans who have accumulated before. I love it, and as another Chinese style, works like "The Sound of the Waves", which have been popular at the same time in another time and space, will definitely not be worse than "Unending Love".

But if it's just that, then Liao Liao's second album, in terms of song selection and production level, can at best be regarded as a tie with the works of the previous album. Considering that the first album has a favorable impression of the first impression, this album may even make people feel less exciting than the first one among fans.

However, "Woman Who Is Afraid of Darkness" is not as tough as "Perseverance", "Wild Flowers" and "Cheers, Friends". It's not terrible, because the focus and title of this album is not a light rock love song.

It started going to two extremes—yes, lyrical ballads on one side, and violent rock on the other.

If it is said that the three light rock love songs in Liao Liao's first album were very popular, and there are quite a lot of components that account for the novelty of the music, then in this album, Li Qian and Liao Liao will Let's join hands and challenge the traditional strengths of the domestic music scene!

In terms of folk songs, Needless to say, "Ferry", the classic golden song plus Liao Liao's voice that has been smashed by Li Qian, although it will definitely not be the kind of song that makes people madly like it, but its popularity continues to develop, and it is also very popular. Definitely not to be underestimated.

Then, there is "Bitter and Happy Years".

Well, for this song, Li Qian is really impressed.

This song accompanies a certain hit TV series around 90 years ago in the time and space he had experienced before. It became popular all over the country. In that year, the sales of this song was as high as 25 million boxes of genuine tapes alone. Its influence continued to be sung a few years later, and it was definitely a national divine song of that era!

It can be said. Even if there is only such a song in Liao Liao's next album, Li Qian can guarantee that it will definitely become prosperous! After all, even if it loses the blessing of the popular TV series, the National Divine Comedy is the National Divine Comedy. From the lyrics to the music, this song is destined to be a hit in the Chinese music circle.

But even so, Li Qian still felt that it was not enough. Therefore, for the third ballad work, he came up with "What a Big Tree" - no matter what the reason for this song was in the first place, in the end, it became the theme song of Teacher's Day, but it was definitely unmistakable. . And in addition to that, it was once considered one of the best public service songs in the Chinese music scene!

Therefore, with "Ferry" plus "Bitter and Happy Years", plus "What a Big Tree", Li Qian has absolute confidence that he can pick up the ballads, and he stands extremely stable!

As for rock, um, he produced two works for Liao Liao. They are "Come Back" and "I'm Ugly, But I'm Gentle" - the former may not be able to become popular. But for professional listeners who like rock, it's definitely a soul-shattering piece, paired with Liao Liao's voice, well, even Li Qian is looking forward to it. As for the latter. Its classic level, it is completely unnecessary to rely on adjectives to foil.

so. With these two songs alone, Li Qian believes that Liao Liao can definitely inject a booster into the declining rock and roll in China. And successfully planted her flag on the top of the rock!

Well, from one end to the other, the tracks on this album are: folk ballads-country ballads-Chinese style-light rock-rock. In fact, at this point, this album is strong enough.

However, it also lacks some elements that are absolutely popular.

Therefore, in the middle of Chinese style and light rock, it needs to add two more popular golden songs.

That is: "Hand in Hand" and "Wake Up"!

The former, in the time and space that Li Qian experienced, is one of the masterpieces of the great **** Su Rui. In 1993, it became popular all over the country, and the latter is simply the first masterpiece in the history of Taiwan's record industry to sell more than one million! It can sell more than 1 million copies on a treasure island with only more than 20 million people. In a country where everything is very similar, but the population is more than one billion?

Therefore, among the ten songs in an album, at least five of them belong to the masterpieces that can drive the whole album to sell well with just one song. Coupled with Liao Liao's singing skills and the fame he has just opened, Li Qian believes that, Even just continuing the brilliance is an insult to this album, which must and will be a big hit again!

...

After sending off Liao Liao and Qi Jie, Li Qian put aside all the album matters and began to devote all his body and mind to the review. After all, in just a few days, the final exam is coming! And considering that he will go to Shuntianfu to take the professional examination of the art academy soon after the new year, Li Qian knows that there is really not much time for him to study hard!

Of course, even if he wanted to keep his ears out of the window and read only the books of sages, it would be impossible for him to do it. In fact, whether he admits it or not, even if Li Qian has not debuted, he is still early. It has already been entangled in it, and unknowingly has become a part of the domestic pop music scene.

...

With the arrival of another Monday, the album "Sisters and Sisters Stand Up", which has continued to be very popular, has once again appeared on the sales chart of Dongguan Bookstore, and it is the first place again!

25885 sheets!

Compared with last week, its sales are declining, but compared to last week's 26,557 copies, the rate and speed of its decline are so low that it is almost negligible!

You must know that its sales base is 20,000. It has been on the market for four or five weeks, but it has only dropped by less than 1,000 a week! So far, not only has it firmly occupied the top of the sales chart, but it has also remained stable at more than 25,000 copies, which has simply made other domestic record companies go crazy with envy!

639 copies in the first week, 27,194 copies in the second week, 30,885 copies in the third week, 26,557 copies in the fourth week, and 25,885 copies in the fifth week—in just one month, this album was sold at Dongguan Bookstore. Up to 110,116!

And just this week, the National Recording Industry Association announced the national record sales data for the previous period. Among them, the one that belongs to "Sister and Sister Stand Up" is its national sales volume of 10,225 in the first week, and in the second week. The national sales of 573,896 copies!

This time, no matter how much they hoped that this album would sell well in Dongguan Bookstore, but not necessarily conform to the so-called 20-fold rule, they would give up completely!

More than 570,000 copies a week!

Not only did it directly kill the record of 370,000 copies per week held by Liu Mingliang for more than three years without any suspense, but also, in comparison, it can be easily found that its national sales have even reached that of Dongguan Bookstore in the same period. 21 times more sales! Moreover, all experts know that although this sales ratio is not completely fixed, it will vary from person to person and also from album to album, but as long as the data for the first week comes out, for an album, it is in To a large extent, such a ratio will continue within half a year, and even if there are fluctuations, the magnitude will be quite small!

Therefore, although there is only data for this week, it is enough to prove that this album is not only selling well in Dongguan Bookstore! Moreover, looking at its sales in the Dongguan Bookstore in the past few weeks, its national sales in the same period are almost ready to come out!

So, just after this sales data was announced, whether it was cheering or screaming in grief, almost all the media in the country agreed that: because this album was released on Thursday, December 26, 1996, Therefore, as of the end of January, this album has been on the market for less than five weeks, in fact, when it is only 32 days, its national sales data must have steadily exceeded 2 million copies!

One month, two million copies sold, double platinum!

At this point, even those who have a little concept of record sales understand that the seemingly unattainable sales of five million copies is only a small threshold for this album, not absolutely not. ceiling. Of course, it is even less likely to be the so-called end point.

The industry generally believes that between 600 and 8 million copies should be the final sales of this album. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

With the national sales data of the Recording Industry Association and the overwhelming reports from various media across the country, the commercial performance price of the Five Elements Wusu combination jumped to 250,000 for one song and three songs for one commercial performance. On the price of 700,000!

In terms of the domestic music scene, this price is absolutely top of the mountain!

At this time, after declining Li Jinlong's call to celebrate Wuxing Wusu's dinner invitation, Li Qian plunged into the examination room and started the penultimate final exam of his high school career. (To be continued)

ps: For a few days, I was exhausted. From the left ear to the left gum to the tonsils, the pain came down all the way. The pain was so painful that I didn’t even dare to chew. Medicine rhythm!

Here, Dao wants to remind everyone that it is the time when the seasons change and the temperature fluctuates most violently. Although you are healthy in spring and autumn, you must do what you can, pay attention to keep warm, pay attention to rest, don’t make it like me !

Well, finally, that's it for today.
