Chapter 409 408. He used his singing to influence the direction of the world economy! Qiqi's sales exceeded 100 million. (Subscribe)
At this moment, the entire European and American media is the busiest.
Whether it is entertainment media, financial media, or political media, at this moment, they are all paying attention to the trends in the pop music scene.
Because everyone has been hyping this new week's pop music market for almost a week.
Everyone wants to know, last week, seven singers made history with singles selling over 100 million in the first week, so what about the new week? Will it set a new record? Will the pop music market continue to explode? This is not just a matter for the entertainment industry, but even considered by many financial media as a major event that affects the direction of the world economy.
After all, hundreds of millions of consumers still choose from Europe, the United States and other countries around the world, and the pop music market is also a huge market. The overall outbreak will inevitably affect the entire entertainment industry, and the entertainment industry is one of the pillar industries in North America.
People's wallets and attention spans are limited. If they invest too much in pop music now, they will inevitably spend less time and money on other forms of entertainment.
In the past month, the box office of Hollywood movies has dropped by about 20% compared to before, and the number of online users of some of the most popular online games in the world has also dropped significantly, which is the best proof.
The result is that recently in the European and American stock markets, the market value of film companies has fallen to varying degrees, while the stocks of several major music giants have risen.
To quote a quote from the Wall Street Journal: The Voice of China Contest has influenced the direction of the world economy!
The explosion of the pop music market in the new week did not disappoint all those who were looking forward to it! The overall sales volume increased significantly compared to last week.
Especially the sales of the top ten are even more terrifying than last week.
In just a few minutes, the sales volume exceeded 10 or 20 million. Wang Qian, who ranked in the top three, exceeded 40 million. The sales volume of singers such as Christine, Sophie, Adam, Elizabeth, etc. exceeded the expectations of many professionals in advance!
Many people exclaimed that a new era of pop music has arrived, and it is a new era more glorious than any previous one.
The Hollywood Times directly reported: "Everyone is paying to listen to music, and no one is paying to watch movies!"
The Los Angeles Times reported: "The top ten singers on the Billboard Hot 100 are all human money printing machines. Even the Federal Reserve is not as crazy as them!"
The Wall Street Journal reported: "The speed at which Chinese player Wang Qian made money in just a few minutes can be compared to the speed at which Apple mobile phones made money on the first day of their launch!"
North American Pop Music News: "There is no doubt that Christine failed more thoroughly this time! In comparison, Sophie may have greater potential and is more likely to defeat Wang Qian in the future! Wang Qian has completely achieved his status as a god in the world pop music scene, an undisputed and unshakable godhood!"
Music Pioneer: "Below the terrifying sales of the top ten are the failures of the old-time superstars such as Robert, Van Ness, Lillard, and O'Connor. However, although they have all been swept into the dust of history, they have also made a lot of money in the madness of the new era."
…
Kristen, who is highly expected by the entire European and American music scene, is sitting quietly in her apartment, playing the music she just downloaded from Wang Qian. She first played Someone Like You, and then listened to the top-ranked Don't Cry and Smells Like Teen Spirit.
Holding a pen in his hand, he kept writing down the notes and lyrics of the song, as well as some of his own thoughts, on the notebook in front of him.
Buzz buzz buzz...
Christine's phone vibrated.
She didn't answer it.
She continued to write down her thoughts attentively. After finishing this paragraph and putting down the pen, she picked up the phone and saw that it was her agent Sharon calling. She hung up the phone and didn't want to call back to ask what was going on.
She knew it must be about the new week's sales chart.
Even if she didn't watch it, she would come back and study the songs of world championship contestants such as Wang Qian and Sophie.
But she knew clearly that she would definitely not be a match for Wang Qian in the new week.
Wang Qian’s three songs are better, and he has the bonus of being on The Voice of China stage. His performance is watched by three billion viewers around the world. The attention, popularity and audience expectations are beyond what she can match now. So how can she defeat Wang Qian?
so……
No need to look.
She knew that failure was inevitable.
If it can surpass any of Wang Qian’s works, it will be a success.
Buzz buzz buzz...
The phone vibrated again. It was Sharon calling again.
Christine picked it up and answered, "Sharon?"
Sharon said anxiously, "Chris, are you okay? Why don't you answer the phone? I'm almost at your door, can you open the door for me?"
Sharon's tone was very worried. She had been unable to get through to Christine on the phone. She was worried that something had happened to Christine and that she would do something stupid because of the blow to Wang Qian's sales, so she came over to check on her in person.
Although, she knew Kristen was not that kind of person, but what if? Kristen smiled and said, "I'm fine, I was just recording some thoughts."
Ding Dong...
The doorbell has rung.
Sharon has arrived.
Kristen put down the phone and opened the door. Seeing Sharon, who was exhausted and in a hurry, she said casually, "I'm fine. You don't have to come to see me."
Sharon came in and observed for a while. She heard Christine still playing Wang Qian's songs. She realized that she was overthinking. She breathed a sigh of relief, closed the door and said, "Have you seen Wang Qian's sales?"
Kristen continued to pick up her notebook and read it, shaking her head gently: "Not yet, there is no need to read it, because I can't surpass him."
Sharon nodded and was silent for a moment.
Before, she had expectations, hoping that Kristen might defeat Wang Qian this week, which would bring unimaginable benefits.
Unfortunately, it still doesn’t work.
She knew that this was basically just wishful thinking.
Opening her phone, Sharon looked at the latest list.
Two minutes to half an hour.
but……
The name that topped the charts has accumulated sales of over 100 million, creating a new miracle in the history of world pop music.
It only took 28 minutes, less than half an hour, to reach cumulative download sales of over 100 million.
This is a miracle that shocks every pop music practitioner.
Wang Qian once again made the whole world crazy with his incredible sales.
Sharon said softly, "In less than half an hour, Wang Qian's Don't Cry sales exceeded 100 million!"
Kristen's hand holding the pen paused, then she put down what she was holding, picked up her phone, and clicked on the latest pop music sales chart.
Christine was stunned when she saw that the number one song, don’t cry, had sales of over 100 million.
She knew that Wang Qian might set a new sales record this week.
However, she could not have imagined that it would be such an incredible and terrifying record! This is simply a miracle!
It's even more incredible than a Hollywood movie earning over 100 million dollars on its first day of release.
Kristen looked back and saw that the second best work was still by Wang Qian, which was her favorite, Someone Like You. Its sales were about to exceed 100 million, reaching 98 million, which was also a miraculous sales volume.
Ranked third is still Wang Qian’s smells like teen spirit, with sales also about to exceed 100 million, reaching 93 million!
This is the sales volume in less than half an hour...
Christine never cared about these sales data, but she felt dizzy looking at these three numbers.
Sharon whispered, "The whole world is going crazy right now. All the musicians, singers, and bands in Los Angeles are frantically announcing that they will create new works and release them in the near future! Fortunately, we have signed a contract with a production team, otherwise we might not be able to find anyone now, or we might have to pay several times the price to sign a contract."
"However, although you are not as good as Wang Qian, you have also achieved the best results, which is definitely better than last week. Christine, you are also setting records in the new week. You will also be remembered by history as one of the pioneers of history. In Europe and the United States, you are still number one..."
Sharon tried her best to comfort Christine and distract her.
Although she lost to Wang Qian, Wang Qian is a Chinese singer after all, and Kristen is still number one in the European and American markets.
Christine looked at herself, who was ranked fourth. Her sales volume was 51 million, which was almost exactly half of Wang Qian's number one work.
For a moment, Christine also felt a sense of frustration.
In the past, she didn’t care about sales data because every time she released a new song, it would always be number one, so she didn’t care about it.
Last week she was defeated by Wang Qian for the first time. She was just a little bit nervous and didn’t care much. She felt that she had achieved the results she wanted in music and was satisfied as she had received everyone’s recognition.
But now...
He was defeated by Wang Qian with such a huge gap.
Christine finally felt a little frustrated and truly felt the taste of failure.
and!
She didn't just lose to Wang Qian.
Sophie also beat another of her compositions.
Sophie's country music work ranked fifth and sales reached 49 million.
Kristen's work ranked sixth with sales of 46 million. The gap is not big, but it seems difficult to surpass.
The seventh is still Sophie's French song of the same name, with sales reaching 43 million. The eighth is Sophie's rock single, with sales just exceeding 41 million.
The three of them occupied the top eight spots.
The ninth place is Adam's farewell work, with sales reaching 36 million. Although the gap compared with the top eight is a level, it is also an extremely amazing sales volume.
Elizabeth, ranked tenth, had sales of over 34 million!
The sales of the top ten are terrifying.
This is just half an hour of sales.
The tenth place reached more than 34 million.
In the past, just a tenth-place finish would have been enough to win next week’s championship.
But now it is only ranked tenth, and no one can imagine how terrible the sales will be in a day or a week.
Although the sales growth rate has dropped significantly now and is far less terrifying than the previous ten minutes, it is still scary compared to before.
No wonder the entire music scene around the world went crazy, and no wonder all the musicians in Los Angeles took action.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
This is simply stealing money from the market, who wouldn't want to join in the fun?
Everyone is afraid that they will miss this wave of dividends if they come too late.
Christine looked back and saw Ellie, whom she knew. Ellie, who was ranked seventh last week, was now only ranked twelfth. However, her sales were far higher than last week. She had accumulated 20 million downloads in just half an hour, and her weekly sales would surely exceed 100 million.
Even Robert, who ranks 20th, has now accumulated sales of 8.5 million, and his weekly sales are very much worth looking forward to.
The 30th-ranked first-tier singer also had an astonishing sales volume of over 3 million, and his income far exceeded his previous best record.
Although many famous superstars and first-line singers have suffered huge failures in the rankings, they have all achieved huge gains in sales and obtained profits far beyond their previous ones.
Christine took a deep breath and said, "The market has expanded tenfold compared to before."
Sharon nodded. "Yes, it has almost expanded tenfold. This is the craziest new era for pop music. Chris, we must seize this opportunity."
Christine looked at the names of Wang Qian and Sophie and felt a surge of anticipation in her heart, especially because Sophie's country music was so successful and even beat one of her works in sales.
This made her more motivated to fight, and many ideas about music emerged in her mind. She said calmly, "I know! I don't care about other things. I only make the music I like and let the production team cooperate with me at any time."
Although, she did not stand on the stage of the World Championship.
However, Christine is also very eager to prove herself to the world at this moment.
Only Wang Qian can defeat her.
Others, no!
She was convinced of her defeat to Wang Qian.
But she was unwilling to accept losing to Sophie.
Even though she recognized Sophie's musical talent, she thought she was not as good as Sophie in all-round ability.
However, she also couldn't bear to lose to Sophie in the field of country music.
Sharon immediately said happily: "No problem, Chris, let me arrange everything else for you!"
Christine: "Well, it's okay, you can go first, and don't contact me in the next few days."
Sharon was not angry at all, but stood up happily and said goodbye: "Okay, then I'll go first."
Sharon immediately turned around and left, going back to increase the publicity of Christine's work. Even though she had lost the possibility of defeating Wang Qian, she still had to strive for the best results as much as possible. These were huge benefits that could be seen with the naked eye.
Christine watched Sharon leave and was about to continue writing down her thoughts when her cell phone vibrated again. It was her good friend Garbo calling.
After the call was connected, Garbo said a few words of comfort to her.
Christine felt more relaxed, her frustration completely gone, and all that was left was her ultimate pursuit of music.
…
It took Wang Qian half an hour to carefully look at the sales list.
Seeing that my sales exceeded 100 million in just half an hour...
There are still some small surprises.
The support from European and American audiences was overwhelming, exceeding his expectations.
At most five minutes, the remaining two singles will definitely sell over 100 million copies.
By then, it would be a terrifying record of three singles exceeding 100 million in 35 minutes! Wang Qian felt a sense of accomplishment when he thought about how he had cleared all the sales records in the world music scene.
However, these are only single sales records.
In order to completely shatter the pride of many European and American musicians, Wang Qian still needs a complete album...
After looking at the sales charts in Europe and the United States, Wang Qian closed the sales chart of Hua Xia Qian Qian Jing Ting.
It was also only on the shelves for half an hour.
but……
The folks in his hometown were obviously more supportive and brought Wang Qian the family-like warmth that he could not feel in Europe and the United States.
He knew that even though his three singles had created a terrifying record of over 100 million sales within 35 minutes, most of this was rational consumption.
It was with these three songs that he conquered more than three billion viewers in Europe and the United States and brought about sales. These people thought that Wang Qian's three singles were very nice and worth downloading, so they paid to download them.
but.
Many of our Chinese fellow countrymen cannot understand English songs at all. At most they can just listen to the melody and the sound.
Therefore, most of the support from the elders and fellow villagers in my hometown is blind and unreasonable.
The sales volume even exceeded that of the European and American markets, which touched Wang Qian very much.
On Qianqian Jingting, Don't Cry is also at the top of the list, which is no surprise to Wang Qian. This rock single "In Another World" is one of the most well-known rock singles in China. Most people with an English foundation can understand both the lyrics and the melody, so it is very popular.
Within half an hour, sales exceeded 120 million.
The second is "Someone Like You", which is also very popular among Chinese fans. Many people can understand it, and even if they can't understand it, they can still understand the emotions in it, so the sales volume is over 110 million! The third is "Smells Like Teen Spirit", which has just exceeded 100 million sales. This crazy rock song is very popular in the rock circle, but most ordinary people don't like it. They download it purely to support Wang Qian.
Sophie's French single ranked fourth and achieved sales of over 50 million on Qianqianjingting, which is surprising.
…
Wang Qian was just about to make a statement on Weibo to thank everyone for their support, but when he thought that posting on Weibo might cause the platform to crash again, he stopped the action and decided to wait until tomorrow morning to start the DouYue live broadcast.
It’s getting late.
I also looked at the sales volume and the ranking is basically stable.
Wang Qian was in a good mood and looked at Qin Xuerong who was sleeping on his legs.
Standing up gently, Wang Qian picked up Qin Xuerong and gently placed her on the bed in the bedroom, carefully covering her with a quilt.
Then he poured out the water he had just used to soak his feet and cleaned it up...
Wang Qian was also a little tired. He had to perform in the evening and go to the bathroom to fight, which was very exhausting.
but……
He looked at the time! Wang Qian thought of what Sophie said, and he couldn't help but feel restless again.
Once an idea came to my mind, I took action without hesitation.
Wang Qian turned off all the lights, walked out of the room and went straight into the corridor.
Just enter the corridor and close the door.
A hot body rushed over! Sophie was still wearing the clothes she wore for the evening performance, and her makeup was the same. She was completely bare-faced, and it was obvious that she had been waiting for Wang Qian here as soon as she came back.
The pure and beautiful face like an angel was now full of blush, and there was almost a flame burning in her eyes. She whispered in Wang Qian's ear: "Think of me as that guitar!"
That guitar?
The one that broke on the stage? Wang Qian suddenly became agitated.
This is to...
