Chapter 996 Breaking the Record

Zhou Yiyang has always been confident in the tasks assigned to Bai Yangyu, as he knows that Bai Yangyu will be able to handle them.

Soon, Bai Yangyu walked over to Zhou Yiyang again and said very respectfully, "Mr. Zhou, I've handed the marketing matters over to Liu Fenfang. She'll definitely handle it. As for the Chinese singles, we've combined backend playback volume, rankings on other platforms, and Douyin data to calculate the most popular songs at the moment."

Zhou Yiyang raised his eyebrows and had to admit that Bai Yangyu's algorithm was much more rigorous than he had previously thought.

"So what's the final result?" The song that Moonlight Girls will sing at the music festival has not yet been decided. Zhou Yiyang plans to choose the most popular song first.

After all, it is Moonlight Girl's return performance, so it is normal to make it grand.

"Currently, the most popular Chinese song is 'Chinese Language.' It seems everyone loves this kind of traditional Chinese style music. 'Dagger and Dandy' is also very popular, and many netizens have already started choreographing dances for these two songs."

Zhou Yiyang nodded. Sure enough, this kind of fast-paced song had an advantage in initial listening. He then asked, "What about English songs? Which one is currently the most popular?"

"We originally planned to look at both domestic and international rankings, but the most popular English songs are surprisingly the same both domestically and internationally." Bai Yangyu raised an eyebrow and said in surprise, "They're both 'Havana.' I wonder if it's because most people are still listening to Red Noodles, so 'Havana', which ranks first, has an advantage."

It was similar to what he thought. Zhou Yiyang touched his chin and started thinking about which songs he should let Moonlight Girl sing.

Before they knew it, time had passed midnight, and the giant counter above everyone's head finally stopped.

“It’s over a million!”

I don’t know who shouted first, but then everyone in the room screamed excitedly and started dancing.

The last time Zhou Yiyang saw such a scene was when the Chinese team entered the World Cup.

"The record was broken." Zhou Yiyang thought he was very calm, but he didn't expect that his voice would tremble a little.

At this time, four girls also walked out of the practice room. They didn't expect that they could practice for so long, and they practiced until midnight without realizing it.

"Did you hear the screams coming from the first floor just now?" Lin Xuan'er wiped the water off her hair and said in a low voice.

"Is that a scream?" Wang Xingrui frowned. She had just heard the loud noise and even thought it was thunder.

"It should be related to our sales!" Tang Yue's eyes lit up, and she became excited. She almost immediately grabbed the hand of Su Yin, who was closest to her, and rushed over.

"Shouldn't we order some takeout to celebrate?" Su Yin's voice was drowned out by the screams that came one after another.

Wang Xingrui and Lin Xuaner looked at each other and followed decisively.

When they arrived at the lobby on the first floor, the others immediately turned around to look at them, and then excitedly pointed at the string of motionless numbers on the screen.

.

"One, two, three... seven figures?" Wang Xingrui felt like she was about to choke to death on her saliva. "On the first day, it broke one million?"

"No one can match this result even if it is placed abroad!" Tang Yue hugged Lin Xuan'er beside her.

As for Su Yin, she quietly retreated to the back, took out her cell phone, and ordered some late-night takeout.

"Maybe only a very small number of singers can compete, but according to current statistics in the United States, digital albums are converted at a ratio of three to one. So if we look at the physical album charts, we still can't compete." Zhou Yiyang laughed after he finished speaking: "Of course, even in Japan and the United States, there haven't been physical albums that have sold over a million copies in a long time. As for digital albums, there are less than ten that sold the same number as you on the first day."

These words made them very excited, and they looked like they were trying to organize their words.

After seeing this, Zhou Yiyang said, "Okay, I know you must be very excited and thrilled right now. However, you must not become proud or get carried away. I guess people online are already praising you, which also means that there are many people who are jealous of you and are waiting to kick you when you make a mistake."

The four of them nodded, and indeed they calmed down a bit.

"Well," Su Yin raised her hand. She looked the calmest of the four people. "I ordered takeout for everyone. You've worked overtime, so let's eat first!"

The employees who were originally planning to go home stopped in their tracks after a moment's thought. Apart from anything else, wouldn't it be a waste if they didn't eat the things Su Yin bought for them? This was a blessing that many netizens envied.

While everyone in Yi Yang Entertainment was waiting for takeout, Weibo was already in a frenzy of excitement.

The fact that "Red and Black" broke the first-day record quickly shot up the trending list. Yue Shao's fans were of course delighted, eager to forward this Weibo post to everyone's homepage.

But fans of other stars, especially those who have business conflicts with Moonlight Girls, are not happy. Some even pointed out that the data was compiled by Yi Yang Entertainment itself and must be inflated.

However, this statement was quickly refuted. The website that has been dedicated to counting album sales directly issued an announcement, certifying the sales of "The Red and the Black" and also awarded a platinum record certificate.

After seeing the announcement, Zhou Yiyang immediately said to them, "Not bad! First-day Platinum, that's an impressive achievement. The certificate will be mailed directly to me when the time comes. I'll hang it on the wall on the first floor."

After Tang Yue finished laughing, she couldn't help but start fantasizing boldly: "Brother Yang, when do you think we can get a diamond record certified?"

After she said this, everyone looked over. Some were skeptical, some thought Tang Yue was joking, and even Lin Xuan'er said:

"Tangtang, do you know how many copies are needed to get a diamond record certified? Even if digital albums aren't discounted these days, there's no way our album can sell over 10 million copies, right? It's not like we were in the golden age anymore."

Su Yin also hummed: "I think this result may be possible after five or six years of accumulation, but now, there is probably no hope."

Tang Yue pursed her lips. She knew that it was extremely difficult to sell an album for over 10 million nowadays.

Just then the takeaway arrived, and everyone put the topic aside and started celebrating the joyous news of breaking the record.
