Chapter One of the Night

  Chapter 29 Excited

  night, the male dormitory building of Huaxia Conservatory of Music.

  Xu Zhenghua was holding a magazine in his hand and was watching it with relish.

   The sound of bluffing and playing cards can be heard from time to time in the corridor, and someone in the dormitory is playing the harmonica.

   is quite a sad song.

   Xu is a brokenhearted.

   Guo Kun suddenly put down the book, got up and walked to the window to stretch, staring at the night outside for a while, then turned his head and walked back, but when he returned to his seat, he couldn't watch anymore, and looked back at Xu Zhenghua.

   Xu Zhenghua quickly noticed his gaze and raised his head.

   "Lao Xu, did you read the newspaper that your manager sent you?"

  Xu Zhenghua laughed when he heard the words, "Look!"

   He knew what Guo Kun was trying to say. When he was away in the afternoon, Guan Yulan brought it over, and Guo Kun went down and brought it up. Several of the newspapers were specially turned by Guan Yulan in the entertainment section.

   are all comments and reports related to "Short Hair" and An Xiaojing.

   There are also two music reviews for "Short Hair", which Guan Yulan deliberately circled, as if he was afraid that Xu Zhenghua would not be able to find it himself - after getting the newspaper, Guo Kun should have read it.

   In fact, it's not just newspapers. In recent days, many radio stations and even TV stations are discussing An Xiaojing and "Short Hair".

   "I read your name mentioned many times in the newspaper, so you are also popular, right?"

   In fact, there are not many mentioned.

   As long as it is an entertainment-oriented report, it is impossible for most of them to mention behind-the-scenes figures like themselves. Only professional music critics will mention themselves.

   And this kind of professional music reviews, and even the sub-versions of literature and art where they are located, are the ones that most ordinary people would never even look at.

   But, of course, the name was in the newspaper after all.

   "Is it popular? Can't it be considered? The popular one is "Short Hair", which is An Xiaojing. As for me, I may be a little famous in the industry, in the circle of record companies."

   "That's also considered red."

   "Okay, it's red. What are you trying to say?"

Guo Kun sighed and shook his head, "It's nothing, I just think... sigh! I think the gap between us has opened up all of a sudden. You will definitely become popular in the future, right? You were banned from within, I think you were also at the beginning. You don't care much at all, you must have had the confidence long ago, as long as you can write songs yourself, no one can really block you! So...you will become more and more popular."

Xu Zhenghua couldn't help laughing, "Just let your fart go! No matter how popular I am in the future, I will recognize you as my brother. If you are willing in the future, come and hang out with me, is that what you mean? Did I guess right? ?"

   "Hey! Got it!" Guo Kun immediately got refreshed, and bowed his hands in a pretentious manner, bowing from afar, "Brother, then I'm fine, you're busy!"

"roll!"

  …

   One thing to say, with the airing of the Oriental Voice music chart, "Short Hair" almost became popular with the naked eye, and there were more and more discussions about this song and An Xiaojing.

   As long as a normal person pays a little attention to this information, it is almost impossible to avoid—

"The song "Short Hair" is really super nice! I also like An Xiaojing's newcomer's personal image. Although she is super beautiful, you know what? She makes me feel like... a girl next door , she is beautiful, but not the kind of glamorous, she just makes you ... you like it at a glance. Just like the song "Short Hair", you listen to it, it is like a gentle serenade, both beautiful and beautiful, So refreshing..."

   It definitely cost money.

"Yes, I listened to it. This song is very catchy, so I am also very willing to solemnly recommend it to listeners and friends. The song "Short Hair", I think, is the biggest one in the pop music world since the beginning of this year. Surprise! I really recommend everyone to listen to it, and the CD of this song has also been officially released..."

   Not to mention this, it costs money.

   But the 800,000 publicity fund seems to be a lot, but it is certainly impossible to cover everything.

for example-

"This song is quite drooling in my opinion, no matter the lyrics, the song, or the new singer... What is it called? Can't remember the name, or her singing, it seems to me to be very ordinary. By the way, do you have any? I found out that this so-called 'pure girl' that many music critics have been promoting recently, her debut work is a song about lovelorn! Ha, you know what I mean? It's just... awkward..."

   This is typical of not getting the money.

   There may even be year-round cooperation with other companies.

   A crooked mouth is another direction.

   But no matter what, it can be seen that the money is really thrown out.

   So, no matter the radio station or the newspapers that Yulan collected and published the music review of "Short Hair", Xu Zhenghua just glanced at it casually and didn't take it to heart.

   In contrast, he cares more about actual data.

   On Wednesday morning, Guan Yulan got the sales data of "Short Hair" for the previous week from He Jianliang.

   Of course, it is still not accurate enough.

  Real sales data takes a long time to be counted out slowly. After all, this is not the Internet age, and computers are still relatively rare objects, and the informationization is completely barbaric.

  The channels of the issuer, Xipo Records, are particularly numerous and miscellaneous.

  More than 124,000.

  From the time of listing, as of last Sunday, April 4th, the total sales of about 170,000 copies.

   For a rookie singer, the starting data is absolutely dazzling.

   Of course, this is directly related to the first announcement of the MV that Kojima Records resolutely took out, and the 800,000 publicity funds - skipping word of mouth, skipping word-of-mouth fermentation, and becoming a hit.

  An Xiaojing was so excited.

   They basically change places every day now.

   Nonstop!

   is crazy busy.

   is mainly to run publicity, and secondly to make money.

   In addition to publicity, I can catch several games a day.

When    called on Wednesday night, she also excitedly said that Guangshangyan had already run nearly 30 companies and started with 200,000 yuan. She also said that when the next issue of the Voice of the East list is released, Lu Ming plans to increase the price, and then depends on the specific ranking to decide whether to start at 20,000 or 30,000.

   One!

  Four minutes, one song!

   It's really cool that the star at the front desk wants to make money.

   But Xu Zhenghua was not envious. He had a start where he was blocked when he came up, or a start with three million debts. He knew that his moment had not yet come.

   but not too far.

   "When do you estimate you will get the platinum record?" he asked Guan Yulan.

   "It depends on how this week's shipments are, and the chart ranking in the next issue. These determine the upward trend of this song. However, you are confused..."

   She said with a smile: "Platinum album is just a certification. It is the record company that reports the sales data and the Recording Association sends it out. It will take quite a while, but the million sales are... I don't think it's far away!"

   "In other words, my first 600,000 is almost in hand?"

   "Yes! At least it will definitely be available!"

  The record company pays sales royalties, and each company has different rules and regulations, but the general implementation is time period settlement and integer settlement—one million copies, which most companies will settle once.

  Kojima Records is certainly no exception.

   "That's fine! Go back and ask your colleague and colleague, Chen Bangdao, make an appointment, let's go to Kodao Records for a run together, my next song has been decided, I'll give it to Du Xuelan."

   "Written?"

   "It's written."

   "Also negotiated?"

   "Also... At least we have negotiated with Du Xuelan and Chen Bangdao."

Guan Yulan opened her mouth and couldn't help but think of what she said last time after negotiating the copyright contract for "Short Hair" with Kojima Records - at that time, she suggested that Xu Zhenghua should raise a dog as an agent, because she felt that Xu Zhenghua Too disrespectful for the work of my own agent, and I'm doing it for you.

   But this time, she hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said only the word "good".
