Be a goddess from Tokyo

Chapter 217 Preheating
Luo Quan smiled: "Ten years ago, she was still in primary school."

"Anyway, I have debuted for three years. Rounding up to five years, won't it be ten years if I re-enter?" Wen Xia guessed that he had done very well in the art test and looked in a good mood. He took the paper and pen without saying a word, and gave The fan juniors signed their names.

How about a professional idol? Wen Xia's signature is much more artistic than Luo Quan's. It is elegant and beautiful, and the key speed is even faster.

"Speaking of which, this is the first time I've signed autographs for fans since returning to China." After signing, Wen Xia suddenly felt a little emotional.

The surrounding juniors and juniors were very happy when they heard this, and rushed forward to ask for their autographs.

Although there are not many students here who are fans of Wen Xia, Wen Xia has not had any negative news in the past few years. She is beautiful and strong. Don't need a signature.

Seeing this, Luo Quan tactfully stood aside. Lin Zheyuan who was next to him didn't go up to ask for an autograph, but just silently adjusted the focus of his camera.

"Aren't you going up to ask for an autograph?" Luo Quan leaned forward and asked curiously.

Lin Zheyuan squinted his left eye, and stuck his right eye to the camera: "I have seen too many beauties, and I have seen many celebrities, and their autographs are not worth a lot of money. If yours might be of some interest, I heard you My signature can now be settled with bitcoins on the foreign black market, and it is worth a lot of money, why don't you sign one for me?"

Luo Quan glanced at Lin Zheyuan, who was wearing a famous brand: "You don't look like someone who is short of money. Why do you speak like copper?"

Lin Zheyuan smiled: "Money is not everything, but without money, it is absolutely impossible. It is not easy for us craftsmen to earn some money. You have also seen it last time. Taking pictures of a celebrity, buying milk tea and apologizing, the last It’s better to be scolded.”

Luo Quan's face was strange: "I always feel that you are implying something."

"No, I didn't say that it's too easy for you stars to make money." Lin Zheyuan laughed: "Just kidding, no one can be sour on the two of you. Among the stars I've met, you two are the only ones who are very good." Not bad."

"Then you have seen too few celebrities."

"Maybe." Lin Zheyuan shrugged.

"What are you talking about?" Wen Xia came over and asked after signing.

Lin Zheyuan said: "I'm talking about taking pictures later, Wen Xia, would you like to be a model for these juniors in our photography department? You and Luo Quan come together and take a few pictures!"

"You agreed?" Wen Xia turned to look at Luo Quan, who nodded.

"That's alright, it's early anyway, so you can be idle too." Seeing that Luo Quan agreed, Wen Xia didn't refuse either.

Because they didn't go for a special photo shoot, so they didn't design the poss specially, that is, the two stood opposite each other under the peach blossom tree, looking at the sky at a 45-degree angle, which is not a common look in the mainstream era.

But how else can I say that Lin Zheyuan is a professional? If it's just such a simple look, even if the two models look amazing, although the photos are good-looking, they can't be said to be amazing.

But adding a few elements will immediately elevate the picture to a higher level.

Or the old way, continue to shoot trees.

"Come on, I'll give you a task." Lin Zheyuan called out Wen Xia's ten-year-old fan just now, and asked him to stand by the tree.

"I tell you to shake, and you start shaking." Lin Zheyuan found a position and was ready to start shooting.

"Then what about my photo?" The boy hesitated.

"Stupid, it will treat you badly if I ask you to do something? I don't have to hand in the comprehensive practice homework, so I'll give it to you if I shoot it?" After Lin Zheyuan finished speaking, other boys rushed to help, but Lin Zheyuan scolded him back:

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and get ready to shoot, the two celebrity models will help out for free!"

After saying this, the students didn't dare to say anything more, and the boy who was called ran to the tree with a smile on his face and squatted down.

Because the shooting angle is Luo Quan and Wen Xia's upper body, so he doesn't need to be in the shot when he is squatting.

Lin Zheyuan said loudly: "Everyone is ready to shoot, I will start counting one, two, three... One! Two! Three!"

The boy shook the tree violently, and the luxuriant peach blossoms danced all over the sky. The Spring Festival Gala suddenly swirled around the two of them, rolling up a beautiful pink spiral, surrounding Wen Xia and Luo Quan.

Lin Zheyuan grasped this rare scene, pressed the shutter hard, and there was a "click" sound all around.

After about a few seconds, Lin Zheyuan put down the camera equipment and smiled: "This photo must have a good effect after being developed."

A group of students also exclaimed that Wen Xia and Luo Quan are so beautiful, Senior Lin's ideas are king.

And the student who shook the tree approached with a smile: "Senior, this photo..."

Lin Zheyuan glanced at him: "What's the hurry, this photo still needs to be edited, are you coming?"

"Do you want to repair it?" Luo Quan was unhappy when he heard this: "I have taken so many photos, but I have never repaired them."

"It's not that you want to fix it." Lin Zheyuan waved his hand, and then Wen Xia cast him a "kind" look.

"It's not that you want to fix it!" Lin Zheyuan was extremely embarrassed for a moment, "I mean that the photo needs to be fixed as a whole. After all, it is outdoors, and the contrast, saturation, and hue need to be adjusted."

"That's about the same." Wen Xia smiled arrogantly, and then gave Luo Quan another look, as if to say, "I'm no worse than you!"

After finishing their work, Wen Xia and Luo Quan didn't stay long, and waved goodbye to their juniors after a while.

On the way back, Luo Quan asked Wen Xia, "How did you do in the exam this time? What did you test for?"

Wen Xia said: "It's just a self-introduction first, and then it's an ordinary talent show.

The performance department usually looks at the candidate's image first. After all, acting talent is not something that can be reflected in just one or two temporary performances.

Anyway, the content of the exam was quite friendly to me. I sang a song when I went up and got the highest score.

Moreover, according to the director of the Department of Acting, Mr. Wu Dongmei, he can skip the next two exams and just concentrate on preparing for the college entrance examination. "

Luo Quan guessed: "Mostly, I have watched your TV series and thought you are talented."

Wen Xia nodded: "Maybe."

After returning to Jiangnan, the two were doing their own things in the hotel.

Wen Xia has no new announcements, and is fully preparing for the college entrance examination with less than forty days left.

There is no problem with the basic knowledge of the subject. Wen Xia will not force difficult questions, just follow the fate.

The mid-range questions are the focus of Wen Xia's focus in the next few days. These questions are also the points that the teacher often talks about. Only when they are all scored can they get a high score.

As for the difficult questions, they are actually the patent of real academic masters, and there are not many people in the country who can master them all.

Wen Xia's learning ability is actually very good, but it is too difficult to compare with those top students.

As for mastering these mid-level questions, there is no other particularly good way, one word, "brush"!
Do more, practice more, remember more, there is no shortcut.

It is foreseeable that the next forty days will definitely be Wen Xia's hardest forty days, and whether he can get good grades depends on how effective the questions are in these forty days.

As for Luo Quan, one word can be used to describe his recent life, that is "leisure"?
Her freshman year at the University of Tokyo ended early, and Shangyi's second-year study career will not start until September. "Creating Girls' Generation" is recorded once a week, and there are no endorsements. There are still a lot of money in the account every day. , lived a boring life at a young age.

The only thing that can make waves is probably his own record-breaking album.

Although it is sold online at home and abroad simultaneously, and the sales of online digital albums are not bad, but all kinds of records are generally certified physical albums.

Like all singers who dare to sell physical albums in Huaxia, Huaxia fans are treated equally regardless of their status, regardless of the popularity of the song, and Luo Quan has not been given any special treatment.

Less than ten days after it was released, the physical album sold about 60 yuan, most of which were commemorative editions. As for who bought it and what it was for, it goes without saying, everyone knows it.

Although this kind of sales is already a very good result in the Chinese market, compared with Luo Quan's previous records except "18", it can't be described as hitting the street, and it is not much different from giving away for nothing.

Fortunately, the sales of digital albums are strong enough to go straight to tens of millions, and Penguin can also afford all kinds of copyright fees. The money must be a lot of money, but this way of making money still disappoints Luo Quan.

In her heart, she always treats virtual albums differently from physical albums. After all, the former is much easier to fabricate numbers than the latter.

Fortunately, the overseas market, which she had placed high hopes on, finally gave her comfort.

It is also a region that uses non-English as its native language, and the sales volume in Japan is several times that of China!
As the sales leader of the new generation of Japanese music, Luo Quan's reputation has been completely established, and the saying "Luo Quan's products must be high-quality goods" has become a recognized fact inside and outside the circle.

After Sony Records won the copyright of Luoquan's album, they didn't put much thought into promoting it at all, because there was no need for it. As long as the official website made a little noise, countless fans who were looking forward to it would help to promote it themselves. And it can be said to be pervasive, any social platform or forum can see Luoquan's tap water sharing her new album with everyone.

Even though it is a non-Japanese album, it is Luo Quan's thoughtful masterpiece. Its reputation abroad has already exploded. With the golden signboard of "Luo Quan", even those who don't listen to English songs very much will be impressed. With this name, I will also buy a copy to support it.

As for the real fans, let alone the commemorative edition. In terms of purchasing physical records, Japanese fans are really willing to spend money.

The sales volume of the first week of its release has also come out. "Love" sold 310 million copies on the first day, of which the commemorative edition accounted for more than [-]%. The sales volume in the first week exceeded [-] million. The top spot on the list is still occupied by "Don't Give Up", and its position is invincible.

It sold more than 300 million copies in the first week, which is one of the few good results in the entire Japanese music scene, but it is still a lot worse than "Rite of Coming of Age".

In Japan, this album has been called a miracle in the history of Asian pop music, a myth that is almost impossible to be copied.

Because it is difficult for you to let Japan have three consecutive earthquakes of about magnitude 8 in three days.It is also difficult to use a song to fully motivate the national emotions in the almost desperate social atmosphere after the earthquake.

Luo Quan has achieved this, and "Don't Give Up" can be said to have contributed a lot.

In the following period of time, many Japanese singers also released songs whose content was mainly to inspire the public, but it was more or less imitative.

In short, the pre-sale of more than 200 million and the first-day sales of more than 400 million, it is estimated that it will be difficult to find a close result in the world. If you want to break this record again, you will have to wait for Luo Quan himself.

As for "Love", although the sales volume is also very good, it can only be regarded as quite satisfactory compared with "Rite of Coming of Age". several grades.

What's even more frightening is that it's not even been a year since her debut.

Of course, this is not the scariest place.

Although her appeal is already one of the best in Japan, the real audience of this album is actually European and American fans.

Especially the United States, which is the world's number one record market.

And the final result did not disappoint Luo Quan. Under the vigorous publicity of Universal Records and the assistance of major magazines, Luo Quan became the top player in the American music circle during that period.

Regardless of whether you like listening to music or pop music, you will try to listen to it under the overwhelming reports and recommendations from friends.

Then, it got out of hand.

The "Love" album has achieved explosive results in both the virtual and physical record markets in the United States.

Virtual records have sold nearly 1000 to two million copies on iTunes, the best result in nearly a decade.

It is also the best achievement for a virtual record since entering the information age!
In addition, physical records also broke various records, such as the most pre-sales, the most sales on the first day of release, the most sales in the first week of release, and so on.

Anyway, physical record sales have reached 400 million.

Don't look at it as if it is sold similarly to Japan, but there is actually a difference.

In Japan, the daily sales increment of albums has begun to show a decreasing trend, while in the United States, it has been increasing, and the range is not small.

Looking at this momentum, by the end of next week, the sales volume of this album is likely to exceed 1000 million copies.

Although it is still not comparable to those tens of millions or even more than [-] million records in history, at least it has reached the point where it can be discussed.

And Luo Quan believes that the final score of the album "Love" is definitely more than 1000 million, or even more than 3000 million!
Ps. Thank you for the book coins rewarded by book friends Xiaoyu Xiaoyu and Xiaoxiao Menggui!
