Chapter 230 Are all newcomers so good now? 3000
In 1998, the wages of domestic workers were only around 200 to 300 yuan. In big cities like Imperial Capital and Magic City, the wages might be higher, but they were only around 600 to 700 yuan.
At this time, the price of a genuine tape ranged from 10 to 20 yuan.
At such a price, it is undoubtedly a quite luxurious consumer product for Chinese people.
Because of this, the market is flooded with a large number of pirated tapes. Although the sound quality is not good, and they are all a shoddy hodgepodge, the songs are mostly titled "selected" and so on, which are not good at all.
When recording a complete album of songs, it is important to record which songs are popular, and there are even many songs in it. Sometimes, due to technical reasons, the tone changes in one way or another.
But compared with the price of more than ten yuan for genuine tapes, a box of pirated tapes only costs three or four yuan, which is really cost-effective. Even if the sound quality is poor, for the cash-strapped Chinese, these
It's nothing.
Under this situation, the domestic record market is almost monopolized by all kinds of pirated copies. It is almost difficult to sell genuine tapes and records.
That's why Han Ying was excited about such a result.
With nearly 10,000 copies (boxes) in the first week, it can be said that it is certain that the monthly sales will exceed 40,000.
After all, this is still the first week's sales, and the Three-Body Band's reputation has not yet fully spread. She believes that as more and more people feel the charm of the Three-Body Band's songs in this album, the album's sales will continue to slow down.
Rising steadily.
Even working hard to achieve sales of 50,000 copies (boxes) is not something unimaginable.
What kind of sales volume was this in 1998?
The famous Liu Huan can be said to be one of the top singers in the domestic music scene. He can be said to be a mainstay. In the 1990s, he was at the height of his power and no one could shake his status. With his "Young Ambition" and "Water Margin"
"Curved Crescent Moon" and other works can be said to be well-known to everyone.
For such a heavyweight singer, how many albums has he sold?
Last year, his newly released album "Remember Liu Huan" only sold 300,000 copies (boxes).
There is also Sister Ying, who is known as one of the domestic divas. She was one of the two domestic divas in the 1990s. Her status is unquestionable and her influence is undeniable. She can be said to be the top female singer in the country. She released a new song this year.
The album "Conquer" has been widely praised, but even so, including all of Asia, the total sales of this album are only around 3 million (boxes), which is still several years of sales (note).
The domestic environment is like this, so Han Ying was surprised that an unknown newcomer like the Three-Body Band was able to sell nearly 10,000 copies (boxes) in the first week.
In fact, according to her expectations, she was able to break 5,000 in the first week and 20,000 in a single month, which was enough to make her very satisfied, proving that her efforts were not in vain. Unexpectedly, the final result was twice as good as she expected.
.
For a moment, she couldn't help but have the urge to laugh out loud.
After working hard for so long and suppressing it for so long, all her pressure was completely released at this moment because of the popularity of this album.
Of course, it also proved to her from another aspect that she had really found a treasure.
Back then, she decided to sign the Three-Body Band against all the odds and gave her the most generous contract. Although Fang Yun was involved in it, it still took up a lot of the company's resources, even if she was
The young boss of the company will inevitably arouse some criticism, especially those elders who followed her parents to conquer the world. Even if they didn't express any objection, secretly, they were all waiting to see Han Ying.
joke.
And now, the sales performance of the Three-Body Band's first album has given a powerful counterattack to those who doubted it, and also made those who doubted it obediently shut their mouths.
Han Ying felt that she had never been so grateful to someone in her heart as she was now.
Thinking of this, she suddenly came back to her senses. She was so happy that she actually forgot to share this exciting news with the people of the Three-Body Band. As a manager, she was really derelict in her duties.
Thinking of this, she immediately took out her mobile phone, found Fang Yun's number, and dialed it directly. She knew that Fang Yun would have nothing to do there anyway.
Sure enough, the phone was connected after a few rings, and Fang Yun's somewhat lazy voice came: "Cousin, what's the matter?"
As he spoke, he yawned loudly to himself.
Even through the phone, Han Ying seemed to be able to see Fang Yun's sleepy look: "Did you stay up late again last night?"
"Yeah, I'm almost exhausted right now!" Fang Yun's feeble complaining voice came from the phone. As he spoke, he yawned loudly.
Han Ying was a little helpless here. She knew her cousin's temper, but now was not the time to think about it. She quickly calmed down her thoughts, and then said to Fang Yun: "By the way, last week's album
The sales data has been compiled, I just got it here, do you know how much you sold?"
"You said..." There was still no sense of expectation in Fang Yun's voice, which even made Han Ying feel that Fang Yun across from him was about to fall asleep.
Please, this is the result of your own album, do you not care so much?
Although she was complaining in her heart, Han Ying still said to Fang Yun with excitement: "9,700 copies were sold, which is only one step away from over 10,000. It simply exceeded my best expectations. To be honest, I
I didn’t expect that your album would sell so well. Sure enough, I was right about you, you are really proud of me!”
"Oh~" Han Ying kept talking excitedly for a long time, but Fang Yun only had a simple and clear word "oh", as if he didn't take this achievement to heart.
"I said, don't you know what this means..." Han Ying was almost angry, and she subconsciously said to Fang Yun again.
However, before she could finish speaking, Fang Yun yawned loudly and interrupted her directly: "Okay, okay, I understand. I will tell Bai Qing and the others later that I'm hanging up.
, so sleepy!"
After saying that, she hung up the phone without giving Han Ying a chance to say anything more.
Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Han Ying was stunned for a moment. Are the newcomers now so excited? Such achievements are not enough to make them feel excited...
