Chapter 608 Everyone has a dream
It's Monday in the blink of an eye.
Priscilla Chan thought it was a joke to sleep four hours a day and eat in the car, but she realized it on the first day.
She was picked up at four o'clock, ate, put on makeup, went to ATV to record a program at six o'clock, signed a book at a shopping mall at nine o'clock, signed a book at another mall at eleven o'clock, accepted media interviews at one o'clock in the afternoon, went to a record store at two o'clock, and at three o'clock
I went to two universities to promote it and also sang at a school party.
I finished singing at 8:20, had dinner in the car, and hurried to the radio station.
During the day, the album has been sold in major record stores in Hong Kong. The popularity of Good Voice last year is still there, many people are waiting for this album, and the customer flow is not bad. But this thing must rely on word of mouth and good quality to be able to sell it again.
Long and strong.
By the way: Vinyl records are about 40 Hong Kong dollars, and tapes are about 20 Hong Kong dollars. One vinyl record counts as one, and two boxes of tapes count as one, and will be included in the final sales volume.
So the 50,000 platinum records in Hong Kong are actually more than the 50,000 sales of vinyl + tapes, but still very small.
Buying an album means paying real money.
If the purchasing power of fans was as strong as the data they produced, then the traffic of later generations would have already dominated the world.
It is the silent majority that supports consumption. If Lin Shanshan and others were forced to share the money to buy albums, they would definitely lose money, but after just making a few phone calls, everyone was still very positive.
…………
The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Wang Jing’s alma mater.
In the late 1970s and early 1980s, Hong Kong college students were a very idealistic and sentimental generation.
In the mid-to-late 1980s, things started to die out, because Hong Kong was definitely returning to the motherland, and the British started to cause trouble. Education was the hardest hit area, and it would be even worse for future generations. Just look at those useless young people.
At night, Lin Shanshan was lying on the bed in the dormitory, holding the radio and listening to the broadcast.
I have a box of tapes I bought during the day, and I have listened to them twice. I have to say that the quality is very high, and the two title songs are great. If an album has 1-2 songs that are widely circulated, it is already a big seller.
.
If there are 3-4 songs, it can be called a masterpiece.
"Shanshan, why don't you buy a cassette for us to listen to?" said the roommate.
"No, listen to the radio later!"
"Aren't they all the same?"
"It's different. Life needs a sense of ritual, and daily life needs a little fun. Turn off the lights after a while!"
"I lost to you!"
The roommate shook her head. Although she also thought Priscilla Chan was good, she was not as enthusiastic as Lin Shanshan. She was considered a fan.
"Lin Shanshan, there's a phone number!"
Lin Shanshan was startled by a sudden shout and ran to the first floor to answer: "Shanshan? I'm so nervous now. What should I do next?"
"According to the plan! It's not your first time, why are you nervous?"
"Just stick out your tongue. Why should I be nervous?"
"Wow, slut!"
Lin Shanshan hung up the phone, reviewed the plan, and found that there was nothing wrong with it. They were all students, and it was easy to attract people. She didn't know how many people would be called to be considered popular, so she decided to call 50 people on the first day to see the response.
She contracted 10 of them here.
"I don't know if I can handle it, and I'm getting nervous too!"
"A-Xian depends on us!"
Lin Shanshan was full of fighting spirit. Seeing that it was 9 o'clock, she hurriedly said: "Shh! It's started! It's started!"
She turned up the volume of the radio, and the host's voice came from it: "Welcome to listen... Last year, the show "The Voice" became popular all over Hong Kong. Many people are looking forward to the new work of the four students. Today we have invited Priscilla Chan... This year ATV
It is said that there will be a second one, will you still participate?"
"I won't compete this year. I might go perform."
"You have to sing your own songs during the performance?"
"Yes, so I am here as a guest with my first album. Please support "Everyone Has a Dream"!"
"A-Xian's voice is so nice!" said a roommate.
"Of course, I've met the real person several times. The real person is super cute... and he sings!"
Lin Shanshan turned the volume up to the maximum volume.
I just listened to the host chatting with Priscilla Chan for a while, and then played the song "Everyone Has a Dream". A few piano notes led to the prelude, and a voice sounded, singing: "If you tell someone about your love, you will be heartbroken."
, why not give it a try..."
"Everyone Has a Dream" is also a Cantonese classic.
In the 1980s, the Hong Kong music scene was dominated by male singers. Only a few female singers, Anita Mui, Priscilla Chan, Sylvia Yip and Jenny Yen, were on the front line. It was not as explosive as it was in the 1990s.
“I don’t know which direction the wind is blowing, but the fragrance of flowers is coming again, weaving the fantasy in my heart again!”
When the roommates heard this song for the first time, they unconsciously became quiet and listened silently.
The biggest feature of Priscilla Chan's voice is its cleanness.
When she debuted, she had the image of a schoolgirl. Later, she sang disco songs, and in her mature years, she took the path of soulful and moving songs. She debuted in 1984, and her five years were as short-lived as a shooting star. In 1989, she left a song "Qian Qian Que Song",
Study abroad in the United States.
Needless to say, "Song of Thousands of Ques", no matter how many people say they like Anita Mui's "Song of the Sunset", it will not affect the status of "Song of Thousands of Ques".
"One person will be hurt if he changes his mind, but two people are willing not to be sad. If three people are in painful love, they will no longer ask about the facts and the truth..."
This song written by a future generation of poets instantly caught the ears of the entire dormitory, and this pure and healing voice was also flowing in the night sky of Hong Kong at this moment.
Cantonese songs have only been popular for a few years and are still in the development stage. "Everyone Has a Dream" only appeared in 1993. It has also touched the ears of today's Hong Kong people. Taxi drivers, night security guards, hard-working overtime workers, boring people
The students... all listened quietly.
"Okay, thank you A-Xian for bringing us this nice song!"
Unknowingly, the song was finished and the host and Priscilla Chan continued to chat.
Lin Shanshan was still listening and suddenly started to play: "Call! Call!"
She hurried downstairs, picked up the phone and dialed the hotline of the radio station. Unexpectedly, it said that the line was busy. She dialed again, but the line was still busy: "Is there any mistake? Are you trying to fight with me now?"
After finally dialing the number, she hurriedly said: "Hello, I, I, I, I would like to request the song just now... Yes, "Everyone Has a Dream", it sounds good!"
"Okay, I'll record it."
"Will it be played immediately?"
"There are many people who have ordered this song, so they will play it."
a lot of?
Lin Shanshan's eyes widened. She looked for her family, friends, and classmates in the dormitory next door, and easily secured 10 places, but she didn't know whether it was from them or passers-by.
"I hope it was ordered by passers-by. The more attention A-Xian receives, the more popular she will be!"
…
"A-Xian has finished participating in The Voice and finally released a new album. I want to tell her that your singing voice is very beautiful and I will definitely support you!"
"I finally waited for A-Xian's album. I bought two during the day and gave the other one to my girlfriend... Haha, she won't be jealous, she also likes it!"
""Everyone Has a Dream" sounds so good, I want to play it again!"
"Priscilla Chan!"
"Priscilla Chan!"
"Are there so many people?"
At the radio station, when the host is unavailable, the staff has to record the calls from listeners and then forward them to the host later. As a result, after a song is played, the phone keeps buzzing with people requesting songs and expressing their feelings.
Different from the original development, Priscilla Chan has a good voice, high popularity, and has become a star since her debut. In addition, her singing skills are very good, so she is naturally attractive.
"Thanks for your hard work!"
"Thanks for your hard work!"
After finishing the program at about 9:30, Priscilla Chan left the radio station building in the dark, got into the car, and said, "Do you have any other plans?"
"No more!"
"Yeah!"
She raised her hands in celebration. It was indeed a tiring day, but unfortunately the escort interrupted her ruthlessly: "Although there is no schedule, you have to prepare for tomorrow's schedule... This is the script for tomorrow's program, you must memorize it by heart!"
"Here are 200 photos, you need to sign them!"
"This is……"
"Ah? Please spare me!"
Priscilla Chan was so helpless that she fell in the car and groaned.
…
Yindu dormitory.
Chen Qi turned off the radio and felt that the program was okay. He also tried to call the radio station when he had nothing to do. If he couldn't get through, forget it.
His main goal this year is still movies, but if music comes first, he should work on music first. Movies, TV and music are not separated. His stars must develop in multiple places, and the music industry must also unite.
Chapter completed!
