After failing the college entrance examination, he became a big star

Chapter 246 How did the trick come about?

"You said, who will be the number one in sales last week?"

"It doesn't matter, it must be Xu Qiaoling's album."

"Not necessarily, Jiang Shanlan's single won the two charts last week, maybe"

"Well, don't say it's really possible. The stamina of the single is not enough, but the explosive power in the early stage is more than that of the album."

"Anyway, the top two are just like that. Do you think Xiao Tong has a chance to take the third place? After all, his album is the first hit, and last week was also the sixth round of recommendation for new songs on the two charts."

"There is a chance, but it is slim"

The chirping and chattering sound quickly died down the moment Qiao Li's secretary stepped into the conference room, and then Qiao Li's appearance plunged the entire conference room into silence.

Everyone arrived today, only Xiao Tong and his manager, because during the promotion period of the album, people were out of town and couldn't come back, and Mo Siqi, who was also in the promotion period of the album, returned to Shenzhen yesterday, and tonight A live broadcast on a radio station in Shanghai and Shenzhen has also entered the company, and Deng Yaxuan's album promotion has ended.

Qiao Li took the main seat, her eyes rolled around, she did not push away the folder in front of her as usual, but said directly: "There is something wrong with the fax machine in the marketing department, there are some data in the sales table last week If you can’t see clearly, I won’t report them one by one, but give a rough overview.”

After a pause, she looked at Deng Yaxuan, nodded and said, "Yaxuan's album was ranked third last week, with 178363, a significant increase of more than [-]% compared to last week."

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then shocked.

Deng Yaxuan and Gong Rihong couldn't believe their ears, they were all surprised.

They estimated the upper limit in advance, and it was only in the early 10s, which was more than [-]% higher than last week.

It has increased by more than [-]% all of a sudden, which is incredible!
Gao Dongliang confirmed worriedly: "Mr. Qiao, you can't make a mistake, right?"

Mr. Qiao glanced at him and asked back, "When did the sales report go wrong?"

Gao Dongliang nodded again and again, with joy on his face, turned his gaze to Deng Yaxuan, and praised without hesitation: "Yaxuan, good job, in the past few months, the singers under the company have been unfavorable one after another, and finally here you are." turning point."

Deputy Director Luo and the three looked at each other with complicated eyes.

Deng Yaxuan is Gao Dongliang's subordinate, they had a competition with Gao Dongliang before, Deng Yaxuan's album sold well last week, for them, it was not something to be happy about.

However, considering the current situation of the company, releasing an album that has sold better than expected is indeed like timely rain.

"Mr. Gao is right. Yaxuan's album is a turning point. Next, it will enter the summer season. It will be the busiest season for releases in a year. Everyone should be confident!"

Qiao Li gave an encouraging word without exaggerating, and then said: "Xiao Tong's album sold 71823 last week, ranking seventh."

This result is not good, but it is within the acceptable range. With Deng Yaxuan in front, everyone's reaction is relatively flat.

Deputy director Lu was a little thankful and a little regretful, and sighed inexplicably.

"Moski's album last week sold 49382, ranking 46281th. Zhang Wenxin's album last week sold 43719, ranking 21th. Lin Yue's album last week sold [-], ranking [-]st."

After announcing the sales of other singers in the company one by one, Qiao Li reported the top ranking in turn: "The second is Jiang Shanlan's single "Comprehension", 182049."

This result was brilliant enough, even amazing, but with Deng Yaxuan's reference, everyone was not too surprised, they just looked at Li Kai in unison.

"No. [-], Xu Qiaoling, No. [-], Cai Kangcheng, No. [-]" Afterwards, Qiao Li reported the top ten rankings, but she only reported the name of the singer, without sales.

At the end, I changed the subject: "Last week's sales were roughly the same. Next, I want to say a few things."

Everyone looked at each other in dismay, seeing the astonishment in each other's eyes. The fourth to tenth sales volumes, everyone didn't really care about it, but Xu Qiaoling, who ranked first, how much sales, how can this be omitted?
After Xu Qiaoling was officially announced, this is currently the biggest focus of the circle, media, and fans!
"Mr. Qiao, how much did Xu Qiaoling's album sell last week?" A question from everyone's heart interrupted Qiao Li's words.

Qiao Li paused, and turned her face to meet Deng Yaxuan's eyes. From the latter's eyes, she saw a strong thirst for knowledge!
Glancing at the faces full of thirst, Qiao Li sighed in her heart, and said perfunctorily: "The fax data is not very clear, but it should not be low."

This was Zheng Guangyue's private suggestion after the high-level meeting. At the department meeting, temporarily conceal the sales of Xu Qiaoling's album last week, and first highlight Deng Yaxuan to boost the morale of the music department.
However, the concealment was only temporary. Not long after the meeting, the sales of Xu Qiaoling's album last week spread throughout the company.

458273!

Everyone, when they heard this result, had a dreamy expression on their faces.

Ning Lan was in a daze, and in her mind, the scene in the lounge a few days ago in the afternoon, her heart was beating and her face was hot, a layer of blush crept up on that pretty face
Li Kai held up four fingers for Xu Qiaoling's album sales forecast.

Ning Lan was slightly startled and said, "40?"

Li opened his face jokingly: "Did I say it was 40?"

"That is, 4 copies"

Ning Lan let out an "uh" and quickly changed her words: "24?"

Li Kai shook his head slowly.

Ning Lan guessed again: "34?"

Li Kai still shook his head.

Ning Lan glared at him: "How much is that? It can't be 400 million."

Li Kai shook his head again, stretched his four fingers forward, retracted them, stretched them forward again, and announced the forecast: "44."

Ning Lan said speechlessly: "44 copies, do you know what is the sales record for a single week in the domestic music scene?"

Li Kai shook his head honestly.

"Metal Bird Band, the album released in 89, the third week of its release, 431827, the pinnacle of rock and roll, is like a milestone, and is worshiped by domestic rock singers."

"The second place is the king of heaven Guo Yifu, the album released in 92, the second week of its release, 416732, known as the lyrical slow song series, an unsurpassable classic."

"Ranking third is He Jingyun, who was recently crowned uncrowned. The album "Thousand Thousand Que Songs" is also known as the unsurpassable pinnacle of Cantonese albums."

Ning Lan reported the first three in one breath, including the status of these three albums in the domestic music scene, and then stared at Li Kai silently.

Li Kai understood what she meant, and smiled and waved his hands: "I just predicted the sales volume of Xu Qiaoling's album this week, but I never said that it can surpass the three classic albums you mentioned."

Ning Lan was noncommittal: "Are you serious?"

Li opened his eyes.

"What's the reason?"

"It's just an idea, keep it secret for the time being, and wait for the results to come out, and when we treat guests to dinner, we can discuss it again?"

Ning Lan felt like being played by Li Jian, she snorted angrily, and said, "Since you are so confident in Xu Qiaoling's album, besides treating guests to dinner, I will make another bet with you, and it doesn't cost 44 albums. There is a limit of 40 copies, if it is less than 40, you will lose three songs to me, for free, if it is higher than 40, then... "

Ning Lan couldn't think of reciprocal conditions for a while, and it seemed inappropriate to use money as the price. Finally, she gritted her teeth: "You can make any request, let me do anything, as long as I can do it Arrived. That's it."

After that, without giving Li Kai a chance to refuse, he shook his head and left.

Snow Records.

Ge Guangyao, Luo Yusheng, marketing director, and music director were called to the general manager's office.

The general manager looked at them, took a breath, and said, "Xu Qiaoling's album one or two is the main hit, please give me an objective evaluation."

Ge Guangyao pondered: "It's a good song, a classic among inspirational songs, but it definitely doesn't deserve the sales."

Luo Yusheng agreed: "I have the same point of view as Brother Ge."

The marketing director and the music director also nodded.

The corners of the general manager's eyes twitched, and he poked the table with his finger: "More than 45 in a single week, nearly 46 copies sold, how did this trick work, you must give me an answer."

The eyes of the four people intertwined, all showing bitterness.

Wagner Records.

Or the general manager's office.

Song Yixiong convened the music director, marketing director, and four big and medium lyricists.

Holding the sales chart, Song Yixiong let out a long breath, and said in a low voice, "Sold more than 45 copies in a single week, please tell me, what's going on?"

Several people looked at each other, either with wry smiles or helpless expressions.

"This is not normal, and it is seriously abnormal. Xu Qiaoling's albums one and two feature inspirational songs. No matter how classic they are, they shouldn't be among the top ten in the history of the domestic music scene."

The marketing director said this, not aimlessly, love songs are the eternal first theme of pop music, the real big sales have always belonged to love songs!
Then, he tentatively asked, "Could it be Daishi Records' repurchase?"

When this doubt was raised, the eyes of the others flickered, as if they had vaguely found a reason.

Song Yixiong shook his head, and said decisively: "Impossible, Xu Qiaoling has become the focus of the circle and the media after the public announcement. Even if Daishi Records has the heart, it will not take this risk."

After everyone heard this, their flickering eyes calmed down again. Indeed, once the repurchase was discovered, Xu Qiaoling would be the target of bombardment. Even if she was not directly destroyed, her future future would be bleak.

Song Yixiong raised his head and said sharply, "How did this trick come about? You must find a reasonable explanation for me."

At the end of the department's regular meeting, Li Kai received a copy machine from Xu Qiaoling. As soon as the meeting was over, he called back.

Xu Qiaoling's voice came from the other end, trembling with excitement, and sniffing.

When he heard the sales of more than 45 copies, Li Kai was also slightly taken aback, then let out a breath, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, his vision came true, it was both reasonable and unexpected.

"458273, it's like a dream."

"Okay, okay, don't dream, this kind of good thing can never be done again."

Li smiled and interrupted, and poured a basin of cold water on her in a small way.

There was an abrupt silence at the other end, and then Xu Qiaoling's puzzled voice came: "Why?"

Li Kai said indifferently: "This is the effect of the right time, place and people coming together. It is absolutely impossible to replicate it!"
