Chapter 156 Runner-up?Still runner-up?champion!

The next day.

Many media reported the news of the fire in Cafferty's home, and the larger media also published photos of Cafferty's ugly appearance at the scene.

The name of Cafferty the Clown spread throughout the United States, and even children as young as seven or eight knew about a clown named 'Cafferty'.

Moreover, as the song "Not Afraid" became popular, Cafferty would be whipped repeatedly.

again and again!
Killing and killing one's heart is the best punishment!

Although the Billboard chart for this issue has not yet been announced, the potential of "not afraid" can be clearly seen from the broadcast data and the number of digital music downloads.

Yesterday, in just one day, the digital download volume of "not afraid" reached 18+.

The on-demand rate of radio stations has increased rapidly, especially those stations with a relatively high proportion of black listeners, which have the highest number of on-demand broadcasts.

In addition, the sales of Lu Yuan's album of the same name also experienced a surge. However, the surge in album sales was not entirely due to "Not Afraid".

Because long before the release of "Not Afraid", the sales of the album had obviously increased a lot.

After all, the quality of this album is incredible!
Every song is on the Billboard Hot [-] singles chart. Not only fans praise it, but music critics also give praise.

This album is obviously a well-prepared album.

It's a great first song, none of it is perfunctory, and it's ten times better than some 'fraud' albums.

In the European and American music scene, there is no shortage of fraudulent albums. There are only one or two high-quality songs in an album, and the rest are all inferior products.

Fans spread word of mouth and music critics praised it. After three weeks of release, "Lucas·Lu" finally experienced a sales explosion in its third week.

"Not Afraid" acted more like a combustion accelerant, causing the already explosive sales to surge again.

4 month 24 number.

The Billboard chart has been updated. "Counting Stars" is still the runner-up. Eagle Country Supergirl's "Bleeding Love" has a sharp increase in data and returns to the top of the list.

"Hall Of Fame"——No.6
"Natural"——No.12

"unstoppable"——No.20
"Not Afraid", which was released less than a week ago, debuted at No. 36 in its first week, ranking ahead of Taylor's single "Picture To Burn".

This song is also Lu Yuan’s first single to land in the top [-] on Billboard in its first week.

In addition to "not afraid", "stronger" and "the nights" also landed strongly on the singles chart.

Although both songs are ranked in the [-]s, these two songs have not launched single plans.

Relying on word of mouth to squeeze into the list, those who can achieve this result are all well-known celebrities.

"Counting Stars" has been ranked second for seven consecutive weeks. Although it has caused some criticism, Lu Yuan is not the only one to enjoy this treatment.

In 02, black female rapper Macy Elliott ranked No. 2 for ten consecutive weeks.

In the 90s, Sister Niu also enjoyed the treatment of being the runner-up for ten weeks.

Although Lu Yuan was beaten by Eagle Country Supergirl in the singles chart, in the Billboard 200 albums list, Lu Yuan strongly suppressed Leanna Lewis with 25 copies sold in a single week.

The gap between the two sides is 5.

Seeing the new list, Liana couldn't help but muttered a few words.

Almost.

She almost landed in first place!
If she can debut at number one on the album chart, she will become the first female singer from Eagle Country to debut on the Top 200 Album Chart with her debut album.

In addition, the last time a female singer from Eagle Country topped the album top 200 was in 1986.

Lu Yuan's sudden emergence caused her to lose two records in a row. The most angry person about this matter was not Liana herself, but Sony Records.

Liana is a super newcomer launched by Sony last year. Her debut album debuted at No. [-] on the Billboard. This record is very important.

If Lianna can win this record, when the news reaches the Eagle Country, her popularity will surely rise even more.

However, it is useless for Sony to be angry.The Billboard album chart is all about sales. Unless you spend a lot of money to buy the chart, there is no other way to cheat.

When the Billboard list was announced, although it was late at night in China, major portal websites specially appointed editors to stay up late to keep an eye on the list.

As soon as the list was updated, editors who stayed up late were refreshed when they saw the number one album on the top 200 albums.

Previously, the highest record for an Asian artist on the Top 200 Album Chart was Sakamoto Kyu, who ranked 14th.

And Lu Yuan's new album topped the album chart, which is the real number one!

In history, the first Asian to have a number one album on the Billboard 200!
Historic breakthrough!

only one!
Personal exclusive!

That night, countless editors stayed up late to work on their manuscripts. Not only online media, but also traditional print media also updated their manuscripts overnight.

Tomorrow's front page headlines will be changed!
In the past week, Lu Yuan's reputation in China has exploded. He actively spoke out on his stance and publicly dissed [CNN], which has been praised by countless people.

Especially on the Internet, there are almost too many praises.

In fact, even if Lu Yuan did not speak out on this matter, the domestic media would not be too harsh.

After all, this is a matter between countries. Whether an artist speaks out or not will not affect the overall situation.

But having the courage to speak out is a plus.

The next day.

Reports on Lu Yuan's historical breakthrough can be seen everywhere on the Internet. Major portals and community websites are full of similar news.

"Get to the top!"Lu Yuan sets an Asian record! 》

"Breaking history, Lu Yuan's new album sells best in North America!" 》

"The best in history, detailing Lu Yuan's road to internationalization!" 》

"Counting Stars" ranked second for seven consecutive weeks. Is Billboard suspected of suppressing foreign artists? 》

……

Not only online, but also various offline media have reported the news of Lu Yuan's victory. Even the official media personally came out to report the relevant news.

Renren Daily even reported the news on its front page.

"Zero's Breakthrough - Well-known singer Lu Yuan achieves another great success"

Although this report only started with a few words of praise, it later changed the topic to comment on the work in the literary and art circles.

But what does it mean for Lu Yuan to be on the front page of heavyweight official media?

You know everything.

A few days ago, when "Not Afraid" was released, although the official media did not report it, there were some accounts that could not be settled that way.

As an official media, some controversial news must not be published at will.

If the official media reported the news of "Not Afraid", would it be misinterpreted by overseas media, leading to the question of whether Lu Yuan's international expansion has some kind of mission?

Wouldn't this be self-defeating?
What's more, the lyrics of "not afraid" are also controversial. Since it is rap, of course words like 'F**K' are indispensable.

Even if the reporters were happy to hear it and relieved their anger, whether it would appear in the newspaper is another matter.

Therefore, the collective silence of the official media is not necessarily a bad thing.

There is a saying in ancient times called "Jane is in the emperor's heart". Although it is not suitable to apply to Lu Yuan, the meaning is similar.

Now, Lu Yuan has a name on it and has come into the sight of some leaders.
