Superstars start from HK Entertainment

Chapter 16 The glorious Little Tigers and the unknown He Jin

According to the 1990 Hong Kong population census, the population of Hong Kong was 5.16 million.

How many of the more than five million people listen to the radio?

How many people happened to be listening to Commercial Channel 2 903 during this time period?

According to the listening rate announced by Hong Kong Commercial Radio last year, 903 Music Channel has occupied the top three in the listening list for three consecutive years.

The average number of daily online listeners is 740,000.

740,000 people, He Jin's requirements are not high, as long as 200,000 people listen to his "Born to Be Stubborn".

Among them, one out of ten of the 200,000 people can buy his single, so after all, he will sell 20,000 copies of this single.

However, everything is a matter of calculation.

We still have to wait until the CD is released tomorrow to know what the result will be.

As the radio station with the most listeners in Hong Kong, even if He Jin is a person favored by China Star, it is obviously impossible for his songs to appear on the radio all the time.

"Born to Be Stubborn" was only played once in the 903 new song selection section and was not mentioned further by the host.

If you don't search for it on purpose, few people will find it.

"String my heart and yours together, string a clover into a concentric circle..."

His publicity was obviously very effective. Many passers-by heard his words and the catchy singing of Little Tigers on the CD player. Many people walked into the video store.

After a tiring day at the company, He Jin returned to the rental house and listened to today's 903 Dragon Tiger single-day song list.

This video store is not large, and after accommodating five or six people, it seemed a bit crowded.

Therefore, although it has become a trend for CDs to replace tapes, tapes are still the main method of album distribution.

The boss said.

He did not shoot a special poster for "Born to Be Stubborn", so the promotional poster was a CD cover poster.

Did you know that Hong Kong commercial radio stations have been playing songs from their album on a loop almost all day long, and this album has been frequently mentioned in various newspapers and TV programs.

He Jin also agrees with the company's plan.

Promotional posters for the Little Tigers hang high in front of the video store.

Although the selling price of the single tape is not high, it only costs 6 yuan, which is much lower than the album tape which costs more than 15 yuan.

"How exciting!"

The next morning, when He Jin went downstairs to the company, he made a special trip to the nearest video store.

But many people will think that I bought ten songs for 15 yuan. After conversion, each song in this album costs two or three yuan.

"Which singer is this?"

The boss was a little confused, but then he glanced at the many posters and suddenly realized it.

Without his own song, He Jin had no desire to continue listening and turned off the radio.

But this is normal. There is no comparison between the level of Xiaohu Team and his level.

The owner of the video store carried a big loudspeaker and kept shouting for the sake of business.

He Jin pulled out one of the dozens of tapes next to a pile of recordings of Liming and the Little Tigers.

Not surprisingly, except for a performance version of "Butterfly Flying", all the songs from the Little Tigers' album were on today's song list.

However, while vinyl records are gradually disappearing, audio tapes have not disappeared.

What's more, the album "Love" set a terrifying weekly circulation of 150,000 in Taiwan last week.

The person picking out tapes next to He Jin was a young man wearing an off-shoulder denim jacket.

It looks like it may reach the top of the list in a few days.

In addition to the Little Tigers, He Jin also found his poster among several small posters in the corner.

Therefore, when it was released across Asia this week, the promotion of Little Tigers was overwhelming in all aspects.

Although I am a little envious of the Little Tigers, I am not jealous at all.

From afar, the newly released "Love" by Little Tigers has become an advertising song for video stores.

"It's a single!"

"Boss, where is "Born to Be Stubborn" that was just released today?"

His shoulders are covered with all kinds of weird tattoos.

In this way, it is not surprising that this album set a gold record in Hong Kong in one day.

"Little Tigers' latest album "Love" is released today, first come first served..."

After you guys get over it, I will promote my songs and then I will blow your ass off.

Two hundred and twenty.

On this day, He Jin's first single was released low-key after being promoted on the radio last night.

Hearing this, He Jin pressed his hat and walked over to a few people who were selecting the Little Tigers album to check it out.

The three little tigers of the Little Tiger Team: "Where did this guy come from? You should think more highly of yourself!"

He couldn't find "Born to Be Stubborn" among the many CD tapes, so he shouted to the boss at the door.

Where are you now?

This is the tape of his first single "Born to Be Stubborn".

Since the world's first laser CD player was born in 1982, and the famous Swedish band ABBA released its first CD album "The Visitors".

Even the song "Love" directly entered the top ten, and was listed together with the songs "Days We Walked Together".

Although he really liked the song "Love" by Little Tigers, he felt that he shouldn't buy it.

According to what Tang Zhengchuan personally told He Jin, "The Little Tigers are very popular, so "Born to Be Stubborn" will avoid the spotlight for the time being. After two days when the momentum drops, the company will increase its efforts to promote "Born to Be Stubborn"."

The young man had already picked out a cooler-looking tape from the many albums with various Little Tigers covers, and picked up a tape of his single from where He Jin had just picked the tape.

Although there is a bit of timidity in it, this is the plan and this is the strategy.

""Born Stubborn"?"

Next, the radio station started playing songs from other singers.

He saw that He Jin didn't pick either Liming or the Little Tigers, but instead picked up an inconspicuous tape. Seeing that the person on the tape was unfamiliar, he asked immediately.

…

He Jin didn't care whether he bought it or not. He took his tape to the boss, paid the money, and left the video store.

This makes them feel like I'm at a loss.

CDs, lossless optical discs that surpass audio tapes, are gradually replacing vinyl records and audio tapes.

Therefore, the Hong Kong sales data received by He Jin that night was.

Although Sony developed the world's first portable CD player the year before last, this small CD player was expensive to make. Compared with this, portable recorders that can be bought for a few hundred yuan are simply good news to the people of Everbright.

He Jin walked through several people who were looking at the CDs and tapes of the Little Tigers.

Although he might not even be considered a piece of shit in the eyes of the Little Tigers.

This low profile is as if this single never appeared at all.

He Jin didn't have the habit of boasting and selling himself, so he just said his name.

The minimum price for a single song is 5 yuan.

Yes, at the end of the day, compared with the sales volume of the Little Tigers, which is as high as 30,000, "Born to Be Stubborn" is not even a fraction of theirs.

Compared with the huge collection of albums by Liming and Little Tigers, his single tapes with only a dozen or twenty records are like a small stone in a pile of sand, so inconspicuous.

He Jin also followed the crowd and walked in.

Therefore, if the singer is not their favorite, or if it sounds really good, otherwise, in general, they are not willing to buy a single.

After looking at the tape, he hesitated because it was just a single. Finally, he put the tape back.

"Oh! It turns out "Born to Be Stubborn"! It's on the left of Little Tiger Squad and on the right of Li Ming!"

Because if you buy it yourself, you will be endorsing the enemy.

Just like He Jin's "Born to Be Stubborn", Huaxing planned to release 10,000 copies in Hong Kong in the early stage, but cassettes accounted for a full 8,000 copies, and CDs only had 2,000 copies.

If He Jin doesn't temporarily avoid the edge and confront the Little Tigers, He Jin will definitely not end well.

The name of Asia's number one idol group is not something that can be denied.

Not to mention little guys like He Jin, even big names like Andy Lau have to stay away from the edge when facing the Little Tigers.

This shows how popular the Little Tigers are now.
