The next day, Liu Fenfang also calculated the time and estimated that Zhou Yiyang should have woken up, so she immediately sent him a message.
Zhou Yiyang was indeed awake. He rubbed his eyes, washed his face with cold water, and then turned on his cell phone.
What Liu Fenfang sent him was the first-day sales figures overseas.
This data is even more shocking than the first-day million in China.
"Could it be that I called one too many people?" Zhou Yiyang suspected that Liu Fenfang was too excited, causing her hands to tremble.
However, Liu Fenfang quickly replied to Zhou Yiyang: "Mr. Zhou, although I was very excited after seeing this result, my professionalism will not allow me to make such a mistake."
Zhou Yiyang's eyes lit up, he was sure that this result was true.
460,000 on the first day. Although they are all digital albums, they can still win the weekly championship on the Billboard album chart.
The only uncertainty at the moment is whether the B list affiliated with the United States will recognize this result.
If it is true, then Moonlight Girl will be the first Chinese artist to win the weekly championship on the B chart.
In all of Asia, only one retired Japanese singer has achieved this result.
The other party’s sales are far inferior to those of "The Red and the Black".
After quickly washing his face, Zhou Yiyang sent the data compiled by Liu Fenfang to the internal group of Yiyang Entertainment.
He doesn't need to explain, someone will know what to do.
…
Gao Yanyan walked into the set in a rage. He had been in a bad mood in recent days.
He even felt a surge of anger in his heart when he saw the Weibo icon.
He doesn't know what's wrong with netizens nowadays. Even if it's a giant panda, you'll get bored if you go to the zoo to see it every day.
Who knew that Moonlight Girl would dominate the hot search list all day long?
From yesterday noon to evening, Gao Yanyan had not seen Re Yi change anyone. It was always Moonlight Girl, or different news.
He even suspected that Zhou Yiyang had acquired Weibo.
"What's wrong?" the assistant soothed, "Other people release albums, and with so many people anticipating them, it's normal for them to trend. Anyway, we don't have a show that's happening, so we should be happy."
"What are you saying?" Gao Yanyan immediately became dissatisfied. "Now that I'm on the trending search, do I have to avoid them?"
The assistant shook his head. Of course, there was no way he was going to admit such an embarrassing fact while Gao Yanyan was furious. "Of course not, but it wouldn't be good for us to end up hurting both sides."
"Today, it should be fine." The assistant opened Weibo with a smile: "After all, the album has been released, the sales have been reported, and the music festival has been officially announced. I can't think of any other topics that can be trending."
However, as soon as the assistant finished speaking, his smile froze, no, it was petrified.
Naturally, Gao Yanyan noticed his obvious change.
Gao Yanyan frowned and snatched the assistant's phone almost instantly: "What's going on? What did you see?"
Without waiting for the assistant to speak, Gao Yanyan had already finished reading the hot search list.
"How is that possible!"
Reyi, why is Reyi the Moonlight Girl again!
He suspected that he would be afraid of the moon from now on.
Like Gao Yanyan, many netizens thought that yesterday’s hot search was still continuing when they saw that Moonlight Girl was still the top trending search.
A closer look revealed that the overseas results for "The Red and the Black" had been released. Gao Yanyan frowned and clicked on the Weibo post with great hesitation, wanting to see what the comments were saying.
[Over 400,000 units sold on the first day, what kind of performance would that be in America?]
[To reply to the previous comment, this result is more than enough for any A-list star. Of course, the B list only counts sales in the United States, so it can't be over 400,000.]
[I think there have been five or six solo events. This is only the first day. If we calculate the weekly total, in a weaker week, there's still hope for a weekly championship.]
[Could it be that all these were bought by overseas Chinese, and then they use this result to brag about how popular they are overseas? That's a bit ridiculous.]
[My aunt in America said that no one around them listens to Moonlight Girl’s songs. Maybe she bought it herself!]
[The hater above is outraged! Anyone who's ever browsed TikTok wouldn't say such outrageous things. "Havana" has already dominated the US TikTok app. Believe it or not, if Spotify unbans this song, Yue Shao will be able to top the B-list singles chart with this song!]
Gao Yanyan regretted that he shouldn't have read the comments. The more he read, the angrier he became.
Who would have thought that Moonlight Girl would be so popular abroad!
Yue Shao and the other three didn't know that they had handed in their cell phones to Guan Fei and were now in closed training.
After Zhou Yiyang arrived at the company, he saw a video that Ning Mang forwarded to him and clicked on it out of curiosity.
The title of this video is quite interesting. It's called "Street Interviews with Passersby in Four Countries: Have You Heard of "The Red and the Black"? "
One hour after it was released, the number of views has reached nearly 800,000, which is definitely a homepage reservation on Dilidili.
The first part of the video was taken in Japan. The female up host randomly interviewed five people, including men, women, and an elderly person. Except for the elderly person, the other four people knew about this album.
Another boy was particularly excited: "I bought a whole box for myself! I hope I can get tickets when Yue Shao comes to Japan for his concert. I'm trying to save my luck!"
Zhou Yiyang raised the corner of his mouth and immediately sent a message to Liu Fenfang: "Verify the authenticity. If it is true, give him a VIP zone ticket."
The second country was Goryeo. At first glance, Zhou Yiyang thought that the people he interviewed all looked the same.
Five people randomly interviewed knew the album and could all hum a few of its melodies. However, when asked about their favorite song, they all chose the old song "Nobody."
The next country to be interviewed was England. Zhou Yiyang estimated that not many people had heard of it this time. The music tastes in England are always different.
However, Zhou Yiyang did not expect that three of the five people he interviewed knew about this album, and all three said that they loved a song in it very much.
“Of course it’s ‘yellow’!”
They have almost the same answer.
Zhou Yiyang was not surprised at all.
In the United States, the up-host selected a white man, a white woman, a black man, a black woman, and a friend who is biologically male but mentally identifies as female. It can be said to be quite politically correct.
These five friends have all heard the songs in the album, three of them through TikTok, and two of them bought the album on Moonlight.
And their favorite is indeed "Havana".
After this video went viral, many foreign influencers quickly followed suit and made similar videos. Zhou Yiyang was quite happy to see this, as it at least proved once again that the sales of "The Red and the Black" abroad were real.
But the sales of an album depends not only on the initial performance but also on the trend.
The trend is closely related to the singer's live performance.
Zhou Yiyang, like everyone else in the company, was closely watching the Blueberry Music Festival in a few days.
