In the "Natural" album, the quality of the new songs is nothing to say.

On the day it was launched, new songs including "Natural", "Maps", and the pure Spanish version of "Despacito" were heard in the streets and alleys, and were recommended to others by countless forums and bloggers, becoming popular new songs.

After all, it is Suri who composed the song. It is normal for it to sound good, but it will become news if it sounds bad.

Many fans heard the news and bought it online with their eyes closed. On the day it was launched, more than 700,000 copies were sold on Amazon online mall alone.

Combined with other online shopping channels, the total online sales in a single day will definitely exceed one million. The data is terrible, and there is no rival in the United States.

Times have changed after all.

Back then, singers could easily sell more than 10 million songs. Nowadays, people's lifestyles have changed and many industries are being reshuffled.

The decline of the physical album industry is a microcosm of it. Suri entered the industry a bit late, and it is difficult to achieve the achievements of some of his predecessors.

For example, Lily Collins' father, Phil Collins, whose band has sold hundreds of millions of physical albums worldwide.

Leave it to now.

Even if Suri releases an album every year, I'm afraid it will take until after his 60th birthday to surpass this number, and the hope is a bit slim.

Mainly because with the popularity of various mobile terminal devices, people no longer need physical records. Even in 2009, if anyone takes a CD player and a walkman out, they will be regarded as an antique. Apple's iPod touch is the current mainstream. .

By the end of last year, the total sales of Apple's iPod series had exceeded 100 million. It's no wonder that Suri would focus on the sales of digital albums and singles, and pay less attention to bluegrass music companies.

It's not that Suri's achievements are not as good as those of the older generation of singers, it's just that times have changed.

a new day.

After getting up in the morning, I suddenly wanted to eat tofu, the kind with more dried shrimp skin and pickled mustard.

It took Jiang Jiaya more than an hour to buy it for Su Rui, and she complained angrily:

"If I had known better, I might as well not have given you the car. Driving is too tiring. It's equivalent to traveling across the entire city of Los Angeles just to buy a bowl of tofu. If one day I suddenly want to eat fish and chips from London, then I'll Isn’t it finished?”

"You are worrying too much. British food is simply a desert in the food world. I would rather eat Indian food. At least there are more seasonings, the taste is better, and it is full of adventure and excitement."

Su Rui crossed her legs and held a bowl to eat the tofu. It was still warm and the taste was very familiar.

He pointed to a letter in front of him and told:

"Speaking of the UK. The sun is out in the west. Secretary Amanda came over just now and said that this company actually wanted to hire me as a spokesperson. I thought that since I became a super rich man, the advertising industry had completely forgotten about me and was excluded. .”

After listening.

Jiang Jiaya also felt strange. She picked up the letter and looked at it, and found that it was from the British luxury goods company Burberry.

Burberry's products are relatively expensive, and the men's series are more famous for their windbreakers, shirts, etc.

She asked with interest: "How much is the annual endorsement fee? Why should they choose you?"

"Who knows, I estimate that its total valuation is not as high as mine. Since you want me to be a global spokesperson, it should be at least 5 million pounds. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of my time and effort?"

Although I don’t really care about this product endorsement project.

However, the other party's discerning eye still made Su Rui quite comfortable and added:

"Apart from my billions of dollars worth, I should be interested in my figure, appearance, and talent. By choosing me as a spokesperson, I can influence both Eastern and Western fans, and I can also bring the Burberry brand to the forefront. The image has been improved by one or two levels, and the eye for picking people is really good.”

"."

She has known since she was a child that he was a bit narcissistic in private. Jiang Jiaya did not respond and gave Suri the opportunity to continue to brag about himself. She only suggested:

"Five million pounds. That's pretty good. The exchange rate of pounds is higher than that of the U.S. dollar. I'm afraid I won't be able to earn that much money in my lifetime, unless I save some money to change jobs and try to start my own business."

"You actually want to start a business? You've just had a few good months and your head is covered in lard?"

Suri hit her and said:

"I guess you don't have the brains. If you just follow me, you can at least eat well every day, go shopping and buy clothes, and save a lot of money. But if you use it to start a business, you might be able to do it in a few months. Once you become a pauper, don't even think about letting me take you in again. I'll just change you into a sexy female assistant with a big waist, thin legs and long legs. She likes to wear black stockings and high heels when she has nothing to do."

Jiang Jiaya wanted to refute something.

But she also understood that she really had no talent for business.

Even though she was following Su Rui around all day long, she actually hadn't figured out how he made so much money until now.

For example, invest in Apple’s financial management projects.

It seemed like I just met with people from Goldman Sachs, and it only took a few hours in total. So far, the floating profit has exceeded 200 million US dollars, and the stock has risen so fiercely.

She also opened an account herself and bought $5,000 of Amazon stock, because Suri often talked about this company, which gave her the idea of ​​​​making a little money.

After more than ten days of financial management, I have lost $600.

This made Jiang Jiaya want to cry. She couldn't understand why it was a large company with tens of billions of dollars, and its stock price collapsed just after she invested 5,000 yuan.

After a while of angrily silence, Jiang Jiaya replied:

"The working environment is too bad. Next time I see your mother, I will tell you that you often scold me. I wear black stockings and high heels, but you said that my clattering steps affect your mood."

"How old are you, yet you still resort to suing your mother?"

Su Rui immediately lowered his voice. It doesn't matter whether the moves are old or new, as long as they are easy to use. After hesitating, he added tentatively: "It's my fault. I'll give you an additional bonus of 10,000 yuan this quarter, counting the mental damage. How about that?"

Speaking of the bonus, Jiang Jiaya immediately perked up, fearing that he would forget it later, and said:

"Then you call the accountant now. Secretary Amanda said her salary increases every year. I should be the same, right?"

"It seems like it will go up. I'm not sure. You can ask yourself."

As long as he can make money, Manager Oliver has always been very efficient.

Not long after saying hello yesterday, he tried to contact the publisher of the song "Butter-fly" and spent some money to buy the adaptation rights.

Suri had no idea of ​​changing the original song, but he changed the lyrics and asked Manager Oliver to get permission to adapt another Chinese song.

In a previous life, I heard the Digimon theme song "Butter-fly" version of "My Deskmate" on a certain music channel, which left a particularly deep impression on Suri.

If I hadn't been watching cartoons with Daju and happened to hear the original song, I wouldn't have thought of it at all.

Although it is obviously more difficult to make a fortune by selling albums and Netflix entertainment movies and TV series on the other side, Suri feels that leaving a little more impression on young people now will make it easier to move Fisker there in the future and attract more people. Electric car buyers.

This is equivalent to spending a small amount of money to do big things and build momentum and bring goods in advance.

Wait until today's young people have money, and then sell products to them.

In addition, the more Su Rui becomes famous, it will also help Dongjing Mall. It is worth taking a little time to pay attention to the market on the other side.
