"What are the sales now?" Lin Xuan'er, who had just come out of the bathroom, ran over in a hurry. Looking at her nervous expression, it seemed as if she was paying attention to some important competition.
"Look up," Wang Xingrui said, standing beside Lin Xuan'er, pointing to the giant screen above them. "See that constantly changing number? That's the real-time sales figures."
Hearing this, Lin Xuan'er raised her head and stared at the string of numbers intently.
"Is this really the sales figure?" She looked past Wang Xingrui and at Su Yin. Lin Xuan'er knew Su Yin wouldn't lie to her.
"Really, Xuan'er," Su Yin smiled openly, "Why would we lie to you?"
"This is actually the sales volume..." Lin Xuan'er stared at the six-digit sales figure and asked again, "Um, is this the sales amount or the number of album copies sold?"
Faced with Lin Xuaner's question, the three of them smiled at each other, but they also understood Lin Xuaner's current mentality very well.
If they were in my place, they would definitely find it hard to believe if they suddenly saw this number.
"The number," Tang Yue said with a smile, "Didn't you expect it? We didn't expect it to break 100,000 so quickly."
"The fans are so enthusiastic!" Lin Xuan'er looked at the numbers that were changing every minute and every second, knowing that behind each number, there was a fan who supported them.
"Not entirely fans," Zhou Yiyang replied. As he left the office and walked into the hall, all the employees looked over. But Zhou Yiyang simply waved, and they returned to their seats. "Actually, there are many people who simply love your music. They might not follow your Weibo or pay to see your movies, but they'll definitely listen to your new songs."
What Zhou Yiyang said was certainly not groundless, but was supported by data.
While everyone in Yi Yang Entertainment was paying attention to the album sales, most netizens had already put on their headphones to listen to this album that suddenly became popular.
The first thing that caught their attention was the album title and cover.
The album title is not the name of any song in it, which is different from the naming rules of the previous two albums.
"The Red and the Black".
The album cover still features the four of them, but this time only each of their eyes is revealed.
The eyes of the four people occupy the middle of the cover, the upper half is red and the lower half is black.
Although not many people pay attention to album covers in the digital age, this design still makes many people want to buy a physical album for collection.
However, these are all external factors. If you want to retain people and make them spend money, you still have to look at the works, that is, the songs included in this third album.
This is also what makes "Red and Black" completely different from the previous two albums.
In previous albums, the songs in them were all sung by Moonlight Girl before.
As soon as everyone sees the title of the song, they can almost hum the melody and lyrics.
The disadvantage is that there is no freshness, and it feels like buying a greatest hits album.
So when fans click on the album, the first songs they see are unfamiliar.
Like the cover, the album listening interface is also divided into two parts.
The first part is [Red], which contains a total of six Chinese songs.
The second part is [Black], which contains six English songs.
Another difference between "The Red and the Black" and the previous two albums is that this album is released simultaneously around the world.
This time, overseas fans do not need to raise money for group purchases. They only need to open their country's version of Moonlight or TikTok and Amazon to directly purchase the digital version of "The Red and the Black" and pre-order the physical album.
However, the real-time sales statistics of Yi Yang Entertainment do not include overseas sales.
After Na Rui gave her instructions to her employees, she quickly bought a copy of "The Red and the Black".
She didn't even look at the catalogue, but put on her headphones, sat in a comfortable recliner, closed her eyes and listened.
She believed in Zhou Yiyang's level.
The first song is a new song.
She rarely saw song titles with only one word, and was stunned when she saw the playback interface.
"Stuffy?" Na Rui suddenly felt irritated. How much she wanted to open the window and let in some cool air.
Four minutes later, Nari suddenly sat up straight and quickly gave the song a red heart.
This is a very special song, different from Moonlight Girl's previous style.
If Yue Shao’s previous style was more of dance music and inspirational songs, then this song "Men" seems much more different.
She suddenly realized that these four people were no longer the little girls who sang "Youth" when they first debuted. The youngest among them, Lin Xuan'er, was already 21. They were women now.
Are they finally singing about love? Nari raised her lips; she quite liked this change.
The second one is still a new song.
Na Rui stared at the song title. After a while, she clicked on the comments for some unknown reason.
Unexpectedly, in such a short period of time, the number of comments has already exceeded five digits.
This is the first song with two words. As a person with obsessive-compulsive disorder, Na Rui quite likes this ordering.
"still".
Another new song.
After putting on the headphones again, Na Rui's eyes were briefly dazed, which was a style she had not expected.
It turned out to be punk.
The three-minute song wasn't long, but Nari found herself sweating all over.
This was clearly a cheerful song, and even listening to their performance, one could imagine the four of them singing and dancing together. But Narui could hear a hint of annoyance.
She suddenly felt that just listening to these two songs should be done in the summer.
That kind of summer with a temperature of 38 degrees and the constant chirping of cicadas outside the window.
By the third song, it was finally a song she had heard before, "Strange Beauty", a song that Moonlight Girl had performed before.
Like Nari, most people like to listen to new albums from the beginning. Judging from the number of comments, the ones ranked earlier have more advantages.
Overseas, the simultaneous release of "The Red and the Black" also sparked discussion.
At least in Japan and Korea, people on Twitter are discussing this new album that came out of nowhere.
Compared with Chinese songs, they first listen to the English songs in the "Black" section.
The English song ranked first appeared directly on the Twitter trends in more than 20 countries including the United States and England.
Owena's agent frowned. After listening to the prelude of the song, she knew that this would be a hit song that would sweep the world.
"Havana".
