Chapter 319 318. Wang Qian brought in super high revenue! The terrifying record of breaking 100 million downloads worldwide! (Please subscribe!)
Back to the hotel.
Zhou Qinghua quickly arranged a hotel room for Ru Ke who had just arrived.
Ru Ke didn't want to cause trouble for Wang Qian, so she asked Chen Xiaowen to take her there so that Wang Qian could go back and have a good rest.
Everyone knows.
Wang Qian must be very tired these two days. We all want Wang Qian to have as good a rest as possible so as not to miss the official competition of The Voice of China.
Sophie, whose eyes were almost filled with watery emotions, as well as Miyuki Nakamori and Maou Chiba were sent back to the room.
Wang Qian and Qin Xuerong finally returned to their room.
I just fell on the sofa and didn't want to move.
Qin Xuerong quickly poured water for Wang Qian and took a towel to wipe Wang Qian's face.
Jiang Yu and Murong Yue stood by and watched Qin Xuerong serving Wang Qian, and they both felt that this was the power of love.
Qin Xuerong was truly born with a silver spoon in his mouth. His living conditions were better than Qin Xuehong's when he was a child, so he had never done such a thing before. Yet, he was so willing and skilled in front of Wang Qian.
Zhou Qinghua, Cui Wenfeng and He Dongming were all silent for a while with a hint of awkwardness, but none of them left. It was obvious that they had something else to do!
Wang Qian extended his hand and said, "Director Zhou, Fengge, Dongming, please sit down!"
Zhou Qinghua and Cui Wenfeng both felt some pressure in front of Wang Qian, so they didn't dare to act as casually as before. This was the result of some subconscious ideas in the Chinese entertainment industry. Even though Wang Qian was already very popular in China and his fans were about to reach 70 million, they still felt no pressure when facing Wang Qian.
Because Zhou Qinghua is a famous variety show director with big capital and big TV stations behind him, he is not afraid of anyone in the circle.
Cui Wenfeng is a veteran superstar singer and even one of the founders of Chinese rock music. His status and position are absolutely high, so when facing people in the entertainment industry, he always looks at them as a senior, or at least as a peer!
However, when Wang Qian's class at Curtis was highly recognized by the entire European and American music and art field, and Wang Qian's works broke the download record of European and American pop music in North America! Zhou Qinghua and Cui Wenfeng now have a lot of pressure facing Wang Qian.
Wang Qian is now a veritable international superstar and enjoys a very high status internationally.
This is much more impressive than those who brag about being international superstars by just playing a supporting role in Hollywood. They are real people whose popularity, strength and achievements have reached the level of international superstars.
Although their overall status in the European and American pop music scene is not as high as that of Hollywood's big names, their record-breaking presence is not inferior to Hollywood's top international superstars, and is almost equivalent to the leading actors in the films on the box office record list.
Therefore, judging purely from his current achievements and popularity, it is no exaggeration to say that Wang Qian is a top international superstar in Europe and America! With such a status, even Zhou Qinghua and Cui Wenfeng, who are at the top of the food chain in the Chinese entertainment industry, feel quite pressured when standing in front of Wang Qian, and dare not act as casually as before.
He Dongming still believed in the relationship between himself and his old classmate Wang Qian, but seeing that his leader did not take any action, he did not dare to sit down casually and could only stand and wait!
After Wang Qian spoke, the three of them sat down one by one.
Zhou Qinghua sat down and relaxed. Seeing that Wang Qian was still the same as before and no longer acting as if he was superior to him, he felt relieved.
He has seen too many young people in the circle who start to act condescendingly and act like big shots as soon as they achieve a little success, but this has never happened to Wang Qian, which Zhou Qinghua admires very much.
He still had to rely on Wang Qian to win the Voice of China World Championship, so he was the most humble in front of Wang Qian and said with a smile: "Professor Wang, I have reserved a first-row ticket for Ru Ke!"
Wang Qian nodded: "Thank you, Director Zhou."
Zhou Qinghua waved his hand and said, "It's okay. Ru Ke is also famous in my show. Even if you didn't ask, I would help her get the ticket."
There was one more thing Zhou Qinghua didn't say - if he could get close to Ru Ke, he would be happy! Zhou Qinghua knew Ru Ke's identity and background. It was a pity that he didn't dare to take the initiative to get close to Ru Ke. He could only wait for Ru Ke to ask him for help before he dared to help. Otherwise, Ru Ke's family would misunderstand that he wanted to get close to Ru Ke and use her, which would be terrible. With just a few words from others, he would have no place in the Chinese entertainment industry. Even his capital friends and friends from Jiangsu and Zhejiang TV stations would immediately cut off their relationship with him.
Therefore, Zhou Qinghua usually didn't dare to talk much to Ru Ke, for fear of being misunderstood.
I saw Wang Qian lying on the sofa drinking water, looking tired.
Zhou Qinghua immediately got to the point: "There are two things! First, as I told you, the program team has decided to give you the best resources. However, for the time being, they are still focusing on the promotion of the first performance, and Adam and Sophie are still the protagonists of the promotion. But after the first performance, they will promote you comprehensively, and then they will give you an exclusive interview."
Wang Qian nodded, indicating that he knew! Zhou Qinghua continued, "The second thing is that in China, CCTV and Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV will broadcast your video of Curtis' lecture tonight. The official has promoted you. The news broadcast today inserted the news about your lecture at Curtis, which caused a sensation, for 30 seconds."
Wang Qian nodded again and looked at Zhou Qinghua with some surprise.
Qin Xuerong stopped massaging Wang Qian, looked at Zhou Qinghua and asked, "Is it really on the news broadcast?"
Zhou Qinghua nodded affirmatively and said, "Of course, why would I lie to you about this? There are videos everywhere on the Internet! You are the first celebrity in the entertainment industry to enjoy such treatment! This is the official recognition of you. From now on, no one in the domestic entertainment industry will dare to touch you casually."
A smile appeared on Wang Qian's lips, and a feeling of pride appeared in his heart.
Qin Xuerong, Jiang Yu and Murong Yue all smiled excitedly.
They were born and raised in Beijing, so they have a better understanding of this.
Zhou Qinghua looked at Wang Qian and saw that Wang Qian was still calm. He admired that Wang Qian was indeed a genius and extraordinary. He continued, "Also, the tickets for the second performance you participated in were priced very high. But they were still sold out. You should be mentally prepared."
Wang Qian, Qin Xuerong, Jiang Yu, Murong Yue and the others were all busy with Curtis College affairs, so they didn't know about this.
Murong Yue asked curiously, "How high?"
Zhou Qinghua said seriously, "It's very high, higher than you can imagine. The first row tickets are one million dollars each, the second row tickets are eight hundred thousand dollars each, and the third row tickets are three hundred thousand dollars each! The ordinary seats at the back are all fifteen thousand dollars each, and the average ticket price for the entire venue is nearly fifty thousand dollars each."
Cui Wenfeng and He Dongming already knew this very clearly, so they were relatively calm, but there was still some fluctuation in their eyes.
Anyone who heard this price would find it terrifying! When Wang Qian heard this price, he sat up straight, with a flash of surprise in his eyes.
Qin Xuerong also stopped rubbing Wang Qian's shoulders and looked at Zhou Qinghua! Jiang Yu and Murong Yue's eyes widened! This price is even more terrible than robbery! Wang Qian frowned and said, "So expensive? Is anyone buying it?"
Zhou Qinghua immediately said, "Yes! And they are selling very well. As far as I know, they were almost sold out after half a day of pre-sale. You may not believe it, but the tickets for the first three rows are selling the fastest. Those Hollywood stars and high-profile wealthy people quickly snatched up the front row tickets. The tickets for the back row are also almost sold out."
Murong Yue said admiringly: "Los Angeles is indeed home to many wealthy people!"
Wang Qian nodded, looked at Zhou Qinghua and said, "So Ru Ke's ticket is worth a million dollars? Did the program team give it to me?"
Zhou Qinghua nodded: "Of course, in fact, the program team has reserved ten tickets for you, all of which are in the first three rows, two in the first row, three in the second row, and five in the third row! These ten tickets will not be sold until the end, and they are reserved for you. If you need them, you can ask me at any time, and the program team will agree. You only asked for one now, it's nothing."
The total value of these ten tickets reached 7 million US dollars, which was directly given to Wang Qian. The program team was generous. Of course, they also knew that the reason why these tickets were so expensive was because of Wang Qian, so naturally they would not be stingy with Wang Qian! Zhou Qinghua was very excited! The ticket revenue should also be included in the total revenue of The Voice of China.
The ticket revenue from Wang Qian's show alone was nearly $1 billion. Adding the ticket revenue from the first show of Adam and his group, as well as the ticket revenue from the opening show, the total ticket revenue of The Voice of China has exceeded $1.3 billion so far! The entire production team was extremely excited about this, as this was a terrifying income that far exceeded their expectations! According to the production team's previous estimates, it would be great if the total ticket revenue from the entire international competition could exceed $1 billion. Adding the overall revenue from TV advertising, the total revenue could exceed $3 billion, and the net profit would be more than $2 billion!
The champion division will receive more than $1 billion, and the remaining nine divisions will share the remaining $1 billion. Each division will have an income of more than $110 million, which is absolutely super high. Except for North America and China, other divisions cannot have such high operating income! Therefore, each division is very excited and satisfied with its expected income!
This was what the program team had expected.
But now.
Wang Qian's sudden appearance brought them great surprise.
The opening performance's ratings exploded, leading to a surge in ticket prices for the second and third shows.
At the same time, a personal documentary live broadcast program temporarily opened for Wang Qian also had explosive ratings. The advertising revenue of this temporary program alone exceeded hundreds of millions of dollars. After all, the number of viewers worldwide exceeded 400 million during its peak period, and North America almost reached a super explosive ratings of over 100 million.
If this temporary program had not become so popular so suddenly and was so short and not managed well, the advertising revenue would have been far more than $100 million!
However, the attention and popularity that this program brings to the entire Voice of China International Competition can be converted into tangible benefits.
For example.
In the second game, the ticket price for Wang Qian's game soared again, and was ten times more expensive than that of Adam and others.
Such a high price was just the first test by the production team at the beginning. If it was too expensive and no one bought it, they would definitely lower the price appropriately. The bottom line is to reduce it to the same price as the first game.
Something happened that none of them expected!
Tickets at such an expensive price were sold out in less than half a day, and the most expensive ones sold the fastest.
The benefits embodied in Wang Qian once again exceeded the imagination of all the senior executives of the program operation team.
Now, the program team has held several meetings today, and the core focus of the discussion is Wang Qian. They are all discussing how to convert the popularity of Wang Qian into tangible benefits!
Zhou Qinghua now dreams of Wang Qian winning the championship. He trembles with excitement when he thinks of the huge profits he may get after Wang Qian wins the championship. That is far more than 10 billion US dollars in revenue, maybe even 2 billion US dollars. That is the revenue that many large domestic companies do not have in a year.
He could probably retire straight from now on.
Wang Qian looked at Zhou Qinghua in surprise. He didn't expect the production team to be so generous to him and reserve ten tickets worth seven million US dollars. He said softly, "Of the ten tickets, reserve three for me in the front row. You can sell the others!"
Zhou Qinghua immediately agreed and said, "Okay! The last thing I want to do is to tell you about the recent changes in the contestants of The Voice of China!"
Wang Qian looked at Zhou Qinghua curiously: "What changes?"
Zhou Qinghua looked at Cui Wenfeng: "Well, Brother Feng is a professional when it comes to music."
Cui Wenfeng nodded, and then said seriously: "In fact, it's not just the contestants of The Voice of China who are changing. The entire North American pop music field is quietly changing. Because when you, Professor Wang, came, the works you performed became so popular! Two works, one rock and one pop piano, both set sales records in the North American pop music market, and their reputations are very high. Many musicians have keenly grasped the popular trends and started to analyze your works, trying to find the elements that everyone likes and then integrate them!"
"In the North American music scene, a large number of big-name singers have postponed the release of new songs. About half of them have abandoned their previously produced works and started to create new songs from scratch, most likely following the elements of your works."
"All the contestants of The Voice of China are no exception. I have heard in the past two days that in the program list of the production team, all the contestants in the first round will sing original songs. All other contestants are also actively working with famous music producers to create new songs for them and add some of your elements into them."
Cui Wenfeng smiled and joked: "Someone from the program team said that the current Voice of China competition has become an originality competition."
Wang Qian's expression remained calm. He looked at Cui Wenfeng and said with a smile, "I didn't expect that I could divert their attention?"
Cui Wenfeng also smiled and said, "Yes, you have led the development trend of European and American pop music! Of course, the influence of your lectures at Curtis is also very important. Before, your opening performance works exploded the market after they were released, but those big-name producers in the European and American music scene were still watching from a high position and did not act rashly. They still think that they are better than you and us in terms of professionalism, and they are still wondering if you are just lucky for a while."
"It was not until your lecture at Curtis conquered all the music artists present and proved that your musical talent and strength were unique in the world that many big-name singers and producers said that you had succeeded, and many singers stopped releasing songs."
Everyone present knew it.
Although Wang Qian's performance at the opening show of The Voice of China was extremely explosive and shocked the world.
However, the real reason why he gained mainstream recognition in the European and American music field was his amazing performance when teaching at the Curtis Institute.
Of course, everyone knows that even without Curtis's lectures, Wang Qian would have influenced the entire European and American pop music scene sooner or later! The reason is very simple.
That is the market! When Wang Qian has more works with explosive sales appearing in the market and the entire market is influenced by him, those big-name singers and music producers have to put aside their pride and analyze and learn the popular elements in Wang Qian's works in order to cater to the market.
Cui Wenfeng added: "Now in the entire European and American pop music scene, basically no musicians are trying to discredit you anymore. Previously, several judges from other regions of The Voice of China said that you were a latecomer and your musical literacy was not good enough, but now they have deleted their previous comments. This will be very beneficial to your subsequent competitions!"
Wang Qian: "It seems that hard power is still needed."
Zhou Qinghua smiled and said, "Yes, you conquered them with your hard power this time, so that they dare not continue to smear you. Okay, Professor Wang, just a few things, we will leave after that, and we will not disturb you to rest. You have worked hard these two days, take a good rest and recharge your energy for the second game, the whole world is watching you."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Wang Qian nodded: "Okay, I'll do my best!"
Cui Wenfeng: "I think that participating in The Voice of China and being your teacher, Professor Wang, is probably the proudest thing in my life."
Wang Qian smiled and said, "Brother Feng, you are too kind."
Cui Wenfeng: "I'm not flattering you, I just have this feeling. Have a good rest. I'm leaving too!"
He Dongming came forward and patted Wang Qian on the shoulder: "Fengzi, awesome!"
Wang Qian smiled most easily when facing He Dongming, and kicked He Dongming on the leg: "I have always been awesome."
He Dongming smiled easily, feeling very happy in his heart. He felt that Wang Qian was still the same Wang Qian. No matter how many achievements and accomplishments Wang Qian had made in his life now, he was still his best friend and old classmate. He smiled and nodded at Qin Xuerong, then turned and left.
Watch them leave!
Wang Qian completely relaxed, drank another cup of tea, and was about to take a shower and rest.
but.
The phone rang.
The call was from Xu Zhongfei in China.
Wang Qian answered: "Lao Xu!"
Xu Zhongfei smiled and said, "Professor Wang, congratulations, congratulations!"
Wang Qian: "What is there to congratulate? How is Qian Qian Jingting now?"
Xu Zhongfei also said immediately: "Qian Qian Jing Ting is doing very well now. The total download volume of your two new works has exceeded 50 million. They are absolutely popular. At the same time, the download data of all your previous works, Professor Wang, has also increased greatly, and the number of new registered users has also skyrocketed. Today alone, there are 20 million new users, most of whom are people who registered for a paid music download platform for the first time, and they have downloaded all of your works at the same time."
"There are also hundreds of thousands of new users from abroad who come here for your work, Professor Wang. They recharge as soon as they register, and then download all your songs, including Chinese songs. We get more than 200 million yuan in revenue a day, and on average each new user recharges 10 yuan."
Xu Zhongfei's tone was somewhat excited.
Previously, the user growth of Qianqian Jingting platform had actually reached a bottleneck and was about to reach the industry saturation limit.
There are actually only so many people in the paid download market, with a total of only about hundreds of millions of paying users. These are the paying users attracted by Tengfei and several other small and medium-sized platforms who have been deeply cultivating the market for ten years. In an era when many people are still accustomed to free piracy, this is absolutely a rare thing.
However, these users are almost all attracted by Qianqian Jingting.
Therefore, Xu Zhongfei and the entire industry know that no matter how Qianqian Jingting develops in the future, it will enter a bottleneck period and it will not be possible to increase new users as significantly as before!
This is the overall scale limitation of the industry.
But.
today!
Qianqian Jingting platform has completely broken the scale limitation of this industry and broke through the bottleneck limit of this industry.
Once again, it attracted more than 20 million new users to register in one day, most of whom were pure new users with no payment experience. This was Qian Qian Jingting's achievement in expanding his territory.
Murong Yue said excitedly: "The download data of our two works in North America has just exceeded 50 million, and the downloads on Qianqian Jingting in China have also reached 50 million! Adding this up, have our total downloads exceeded 100 million worldwide? Who has ever achieved over 100 million downloads in two days?"
Jiang Yu also laughed: "No one has ever done this before. Hundreds of millions of downloads in two days, I dare not even think about it!"
Wang Qian also laughed when he heard this number, but he still poured cold water on it and said, "Those statistical agencies will not recognize Hua Xia's data. They will definitely say it is fake!"
Xu Zhongfei did say on the phone: "Yes, I contacted the international authoritative statistical agency, and they said they would not accept our data! Otherwise, this would definitely be a record that would shock the whole world!"
Several people felt it was a pity, but there was nothing they could do. This was the fixed impression that the chaos in the Chinese market over the past few decades had left on authoritative statistical agencies in Europe and the United States.
Qin Xuerong asked curiously, "Why are there so many new users suddenly?"
Xu Zhongfei immediately explained: "I sent someone to find out, and I also looked at our platform and did an internal survey of new users. Their answer was the same: Professor Wang's performance in North America was too great, and he conquered Europe and the United States! In order to support Professor Wang, they decided to recharge and download Professor Wang's works to support his music!"
"This is the influence that Professor Wang's lectures at Curtis have brought! Many people regard Professor Wang as our pride, so they gave up the habit of listening to songs for free and recharged to support Professor Wang."
"I estimate that this impact will continue for a few days. The user growth of Qianqian Jingting will continue to maintain a high speed. It may completely surpass Tengfei tomorrow or the day after tomorrow!"
Xu Zhongfei was extremely excited when he talked about surpassing Tengfei.
Now the total number of Qianqian Jingting users has exceeded 100 million, of which more than 90% are paying users. This total number of paying users is already comparable to that of Tengfei. It is certain that it will surpass Tengfei in a few days, and by then it will become the number one paid music download platform in China!
Of course, in fact, Qianqian Jingting is still far behind Tengfei in terms of the total number of users. After all, Tengfei has been in operation for so many years, and the total number of users is still terrifying, but most of them are no longer active users, and the user quality is not high!
Especially in attracting new users, Tengfei is far behind Qianqian Jingting. In the past six months, Tengfei has only registered five million new users, of which only a few hundred thousand are paying users. Compared with Qianqian Jingting's hundreds of millions of new paying users in half a year, the gap is simply incalculable.
Wang Qian also praised happily: "You've done a good job. Now that it's the end of the year, give each employee a year-end bonus of half a year's salary. And give each of them a Haidilao consumption voucher worth 1,000 yuan."
Xu Zhongfei smiled and said, "Thank you, Professor Wang. They will definitely thank you. However, what I want to talk to you about is Tengfei's plan. I got the news that Tengfei is contacting the contestants of the Voice International Competition and wants to buy the copyrights of the international contestants in China to increase the appeal to new users. I think we can't fall behind. I also want to buy the copyrights of the Voice contestants at a high price!"
Wang Qian immediately said, "Of course. But I'll make the contact."
Wang Qian knows Sophie, Miyuki Nakamori, and Elizabeth, and they have a good relationship with each other. Plus, with a fair market price, he should be able to get their copyrights!
As for other people, we need to talk slowly.
Especially the copyrights of Adam and Jonathan, Wang Qian felt that they would not sell them to him. Even if he offered a higher price than Tengfei, they probably would not cooperate with him.
Xu Zhongfei said: "Okay, with Professor Wang here, we will definitely succeed!"
As he spoke, Xu Zhongfei changed his tone and said, "By the way, Professor Wang, my game planning plan has been preliminarily finalized. I'll show it to you when you come back."
Wang Qian: “Sure, no rush!”
Xu Zhongfei: "I'm not in a hurry. I want to carefully craft a successful game. Besides, right now I'm still focusing on Qian Qian Jing Ting. Professor Wang, please let me know when you've made the contact and I'll send you the company contract."
Wang Qian: “Okay, no problem!”
The two of them stopped chatting after they finished talking. Xu Zhongfei didn't want to disturb Wang Qian any further, so he said goodbye and hung up the phone.
Wang Qian did not contact Sophie, Elizabeth, Miyuki Nakamori and the others immediately, but curiously turned on the computer and entered the Qianqian Jingting website in China! Fortunately, it was successfully opened.
now.
Qian Qianjing listened and found that he had changed a little compared to when he was in China.
Become more concise and simpler.
certainly!
The biggest change is.
The download volume of songs on the list has increased greatly, whether it is new songs or old songs on the overall list, the data has increased significantly compared to before.
When Wang Qian saw the download data of several of his old songs on the overall chart, his eyebrows couldn't help but twitch.
The improvement is indeed significant.
Please subscribe and support!
Thank you all…
