China Entertainment: Starting from 07 Kuainan

Chapter 308 The depressed Chinese music scene

1 month 5 number.

The China Song Ranking held a ceremony in Yanjing to announce the nomination list.

Starlight Records' singers Li Ronghao, Zhao Lei, Wang Sulong, Xu Song, Su Xin and Meina account for 13 nominations in 30 awards.

5 nominations per person!
  If you include Lu Yuan's nominations, singers from the Starlight genre account for almost half of the nominations.

The rise of the Starlight Group has not only broken the dominance of Super Girls and Fast Boys over the mainland music scene, but also on the sales side, the sales of Xu Song and others are not inferior to those of Hong Kong and Taiwan singers.

In the annual album sales list just announced, Xu Song, Wang Sulong, and Zhao Lei all entered the top ten on the list.

Among them, Zhao Lei ranked the highest, ranking sixth.

Xu Song and Wang Sulong only ranked ninth and tenth because their albums were released relatively late.

However, the annual sales list released by Xingwaijie Records is not authoritative enough to convince everyone.

The data disclosed by Starlight Records is that Xu Song’s album sales were 38 copies.

In the list, Li Yuchun, who claims to have sold 50 albums, did not even make it into the top ten.

Seeing this list, how can the corns be convinced?

However, whether it is in the digital album download end or in the annual sales list of online shopping platforms such as Joyo and Dangdang, Li Yuchun's album of the same name is lower than Xu Song's second studio album "Xunwu Enlightenment".

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the physical album has sold 50 copies.

"Looking for the Fog" contains popular songs such as "Sigh", "Gray Head", "Luzhou Moon", "If You Become the Wind", "Solo Journey" and so on.

The quality is not inferior to the collections released by famous singers.

Even so, more than a month after the album was released, the total sales have not reached 40 copies.

If we put it in the millennium, or push it forward four or five years, if the album sales exceeded one million, it would not be a problem at all.

But in today's Chinese music scene, it's really difficult to make money by releasing records.

"Searching for the Fog" sold 38 copies, and Starlight Records only made less than one million, which is not as much as Xu Song earned from an endorsement.

I did five commercial performances and made more money than the album.

The situation with Zhao Lei is similar. "Zhao Xiaolei" shipped 53 copies and only made over one million.

of course.

If you include digital albums + ring tones on the wireless side, you will definitely earn more than this.

But this is the top ten sales data.

The income of those singers who have sold less than [-] albums can be imagined.

Not only in the mainland, but also in the annual sales list in the Bay Area, only two albums have sold more than 10 copies.

The first place is Lu Yuan's "Walking Without Stopping", with sales of 40+.

The second place is Jolin Tsai's tenth solo album "Butterfly" released in March, which ranked second with sales of 3 copies.

Ranking third is still Lu Yuan. His English album (collector's edition) has sales of 7+, surpassing Fei Lunhai and becoming the goalkeeper.

Compared with the Bay Area, Xiangjiang is more conservative and only announced its rankings without disclosing specific figures.

The top five are: Lu Yuan, Zheng Xiuwen, Lin Feng, Fang Datong, and Zhang Xueyou.

Looking at the Chinese music scene this year, the record industry has further slumped, almost to the point of withering.

The total album sales in the Bay Area for the whole year are probably not as good as the global sales of super talent singer Aunt Susan alone.

Forty-nine-year-old Aunt Susan was the runner-up in the 09 Eagle Country Talent Show. In November, she released her first studio album.

In less than a month after its release, it sold 310 million copies in America.

If Mother Susan had been released a week earlier, Taylor's annual best-selling position might not have been guaranteed.

This year, the global music scene was shocked by Aunt Susan. The album was released less than a month ago, with total global sales of 620 million+.

A real breakthrough. No novel would dare to write like this.

(I will definitely get sprayed if I write this)

……

Xie He Hospital.

The five main characters, Lu Yuan, Yang Mi, Wang Qianyuan, Zhang Xiaoge Lao Zhijian, and Zhang Jiayi, all came to the guidance unit for half a month of ‘training’.

Half a month is definitely not enough time for these people to become doctors, but it is not a problem to capture the doctor's temperament and imitate his appearance.

In fact, similar life experience is not a special experience for veteran actors like Zhang Zhijian and Zhang Jiayi.

Not only did they not object, but they agreed with it.

The play is bigger than the sky.

If you want to make a good drama, especially a professional drama like this, the performances in the drama must not be based solely on imagination.

What is the daily life of a doctor like?

What is it like at work?

How can an actor perform well if he doesn't know anything?

For the next ten days or so, the five of them ate and lived with the resident doctors every day, and stayed in the hospital all day long.

They received guidance during the day and held discussions in the evening to share their experiences.

During this period, they also observed several teaching surgeries.

Union Hospital also sent two senior doctors to provide them with some training.

For example, what are the prohibitions in the operating room, what is the correct way to disinfect, how to perform standard cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and the names, abbreviations, functions of various medical devices, etc.

The reason why Union Medical College Hospital spares no effort to support is certainly not due to its financial ability.

In addition to Star Media, the drama "The Good Doctor" is produced by China TV Drama Production Company, the News and Publicity Center of the Ministry of Health, and the Yanjing Health Bureau.

Otherwise, Xingchen Media alone would not be qualified to ask the Union Medical College Hospital to cooperate.

"The Good Doctor" is also the first TV series to be put into production after the restructuring of the Huaxia TV Drama Production Center. It is also the first domestic TV series to reflect the profession of doctors.

The Huaxia TV Drama Production Center was originally a public institution. Familiar classics such as "Journey to the West", "A Dream of Red Mansions", "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Shui Xu Zhuan" are all TV series produced by the production center.

After the restructuring, the production center changed from a unit to a company and became a wholly-owned company owned by CCTV, Taiwan Management and Taiwan Control.

Therefore, before the production of "The Good Doctor" has begun, the premiere rights have been booked in advance by CCTV.

The reputation of Star Media is worthy of this.

On January 1, CCTV 2’s new year-opening drama “I Am a Special Forces Soldier” broke three in the first broadcast ratings.

By the sixth episode, the highest ratings for a single episode were 4.13.

Although "Special Forces" is backed by CCTV, even within CCTV, the average ratings of 3.23% for the first six episodes are not achieved every year.

Last year's hit drama "The Righteous Way in the World Is Vicissitudes of Life" only had an average viewership of 2.6%.

The ratings of 4.13% also broke the ratings record of CCTV's eight new year dramas.

The ratings of "Special Forces" have exploded. On the one hand, it is because it is backed by CCTV. Almost every TV audience across the country has a CCTV channel.

The other aspect is also related to Space Wolves.

Although Wu Jing has been traveling to Hong Kong to develop his career since 03, dramas such as "The Grandmaster of Tai Chi", "Little Li Flying Knives", and "Riding the West Wind" have accumulated huge national popularity for him.

It is not difficult to understand that Wu Jing’s first work back on the small screen after four years, the ratings exploded upon its premiere.

　I have a bit of a headache and can't concentrate. I'll update it tonight.
