China Entertainment: I really don’t want to live with the queen

Finished listening to the album.

The two discussed the promotion of the album and the number of first batches of recordings.

The first is publicity.

At present, digital music has not yet emerged. The Internet is only a luxury product for the rich. The mainstream channels are: "radio stations, TV stations, and newspapers."

Shen Lihui's industry accumulation was revealed at this time.

He has connections and can contact Peking Music Radio.

Peking Music Broadcasting is one of the eight professional stations of Peking People's Broadcasting Station. It was launched in 1993. Among them, the "Chinese Music Ranking" program is currently one of the top music columns in the mainland.

It can be said.

Mainland's first-tier singers may not be able to get on the "Beiping Music Broadcasting" station if their albums are released on the "Da Ge" platform.

However, Shen Lihui dared to pat his chest and said firmly: "Brother Xu, it would be unreasonable for you not to have these songs on Peking Music Broadcasting. There is only one month left before the return of the Pearl, and the whole country is giving gifts. What gift can I have to have someone like you?" Several songs are more appropriate for the time and can better express the aspirations of our ordinary people."

Xu Chen was also very happy.

A singer's new album usually "plays" on the radio. He selects the title song of the album and sends it to the radio station for a fee. The radio station will push it. The effect of the push depends on the thickness of the red envelope.

After several rounds of bombing, a front-line radio station can reach at least 800,000 listeners.

There are also some crooked ways.

for example.

Recommended by well-known music critics, recommended by newspaper columns, recommended by kings and queens...

To put it bluntly, it’s just bringing goods.

The grandson Shen Lihui, in addition to Peking Music Broadcasting, also has access to the authoritative music special magazine "Contemporary Music".

"Contemporary Music" is China's earliest popular music journal. It was founded in 1994 and is currently the most authoritative entertainment-oriented music special issue in China.

Xu Chen looked calm on the surface, but his hands were trembling a little: "Brother Shen, if you have any other opportunities, just tell me."

"I and Zhao Nian, the drummer of the Tang Dynasty band, are brothers. So, I will make arrangements in a few days. Let's go meet the Tang Dynasty band. Bye bye to the dock, and Zhao Mingyi, the drummer of the Black Panther band. Oh, Lao Xu. 伱I rejected Zhang Peiren, otherwise Dou Wei would still give me face."

Xu Chen: "..."

Dou Wei and I are brothers!

Xu Chen remained silent.

Shen Lihui muttered: "We also need to find a way to the Central Conservatory of Music and the Huaxia Conservatory of Music. They will brag about it."

Xu Chen cupped his hands and said, "Master Shen, please look at the arrangements~"

Shen Lihui came back to his senses, put his hands happily, and called: "Master Xu, sit down, I will do the rest."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Shen Lihui was involved in promoting the album. Xu Chen was relieved. After thinking about it, he said, "Master Shen, what do you think of our first album burning, 50,000 discs and 150,000 tapes?"

Shen Lihui is so awesome.

Xu Chen is a little bloated. The "golden record" can't satisfy his appetite at all. If you want to do it, do it with big tickets, stud~

The cost of recording a "platinum album" on the first album is not low.

no way.

"CDs" are expensive. Currently, "CDs" for kings and queens usually cost 15 yuan, "CDs" for ordinary singers cost 10 yuan, and "CDs" for foreign singers cost 18 yuan.

Tapes are cheap, a box of tapes costs six dollars.

If all are sold out, the "disc" will cost 500,000, the tape will cost 900,000, and Xu Chen's first album will cost a conservative 1.4 million.

That doesn't sound like much.

But.

Albums are just one of the ways for singers to make money. There are also commercial performances and endorsements. If the album reaches "platinum sales", Xu Chen will work hard to make money, and he will earn at least one million this year!

1997.

In half a year, he made a million dollars. What a concept. Huang Bo failed to start his business and owed a huge debt of 300,000 yuan.

The grandson was so frightened that he left his hometown and hid in Tibet, not daring to go back. Xu Chen's twelve songs were three times the huge debt he owed.

The number Xu Chen said was a bit arrogant.

After all, he is a newcomer. Other newcomers have thousands of CDs and tens of thousands of tapes for their first album. Only kings and queens dare to stock up like this.

"Mr. Xu, you are too conservative." Shen Lihui shook his head and said flatly: "The discs cost at least 200,000 yuan and the tapes cost 400,000 yuan. If the stock is too little, if piracy keeps up, we will suffer a big loss. It is better to prepare more than less. ."

"..." Xu Chen thought for a while and advised: "Master Shen, the princess's records have only been sold for 300,000 yuan. Isn't my 200,000 yuan too radical? Let's take it slow."

Why……

Xu Chen was scratching his head, something was wrong, he had released an album, and now he advised Shen Lihui not to be too radical.

Shen Lihui smiled and said: "Master Xu, I am confident that sooner or later you will be the king who can rival the princess."

"200,000 optical discs, 400,000 tapes..." Shen Lihui roughly estimated: "The initial investment will be at least 600,000..."

"boom……"

There was a loud noise, and the door was knocked open from the outside.

Xiao Bai stood at the door, staring at Xu Chen...

Shen Lihui's face suddenly turned pale, and his body felt like an electric shock. He stood up from the chair, gritted his teeth, and explained: "Wife. This... um, 600,000..."

"Find someone you love most, someone you love and want to love, and say goodbye to being single~"

Xiao Bai ignored Shen Lihui, snorted twice, and stared at Xu Chen: "Did you write this song?"

Xu Chen stood up from the chair. Xiaobai was so energetic. He nodded and smiled: "Sister-in-law, don't blame Brother Shen. We want the first album..."

"No, I'm asking you if you wrote this song. Why are you so verbose?" Xiao Bai was impatient.

"Yes Yes Yes."

"What is your name?"

"Single love song." Xiaobai nodded: "Single love song, the name is good, the song is nice, Lao Shen, 200,000 is too few, I think it is at least 300,000. People like me who hate songs the most find it nice, and others must Like, oh, Lao Shen, you are too petty, since we can make money, we will do something big!"

This time.

Shen Lihui and Xu Chen looked at each other and shouted, "Wife/sister-in-law, don't be too aggressive!"

………………

at last.

Several people discussed and decided to burn 200,000 discs and 400,000 tapes. The album was titled "Legend".

Shen Lihui suggested: "Nowadays, there are nicknames in the music industry, such as Prince of Love Songs, Asian Dance King, Brother Xu, how about you call me the Prince of Folk Songs?"

It is a custom from Xiangjiang to use nicknames in the singing world.

for example.

Singer Alan Tam, singer Leslie Cheung, singer Chen Baiqiang, the four kings, the successors of the kings...

Baodao also has many nicknames, including the godfather of music Luo Dayou, the ever-changing enchantress Mok Wenwei, the music emperor Jay Chou, milk tea Liu Yiyin...

Mainland China also keeps up with the trend. Xu Chen dislikes being too middle-aged, but the audience likes it, and it's a good thing to say it out loud.

"The prince of folk songs is too stupid." Xu Chen thought for a moment: "In this case, let's just call him Xu Chen, the versatile singer."

The nickname can be upgraded.

The ever-changing singer may not be the ever-changing king, the ever-changing singer, the ever-changing singer...

Xu Chen has a final nickname in his mind: "Qu Dad", which means "Everyone in the world is Xu Qu".

Forget it, showdown. He wants to be the father of the Queen and the King of Heaven.

"This nickname is a bit ordinary." Shen Lihui did not hesitate: "Okay, Brother Xu, it's finalized. In the next few days, Brother Xu will work hard to take some photos. The album is expected to be released on June 15th. There will be a tough battle ahead. Got it!"

There are 200,000 CDs, not all 200,000 CDs are burned and then distributed.

The safe point is generally to burn 100,000 sheets and release 50,000 sheets. Depending on the market effect, if the effect is good, continue to distribute 50,000 sheets, and the factory will work overtime to burn.

Keeping the market hungry at all times is good for album sales, but don’t go too far. Piracy will teach you how to be a good person in minutes!

Xu Chen nodded.

More than just a tough battle...

He wants to kill the gods!
