"Mr. Xue, these are the sales figures for the first 24 hours."
The secretary handed a document to Xue Congfu. It was already the second day after Yan Zi's album "Cicada 3" and Guan Yue's "Goodbye Autumn" were released.
The document records in detail the sales fluctuations and market analysis of the two albums on the first day of release yesterday.
First-day sales of Cicada III:
Goodbye Autumn's first day sales:
"So we still lost?" Xue Congfu was somewhat dissatisfied with the result.
"Yes, but as you can see from the sales curve, the fluctuations of 'Goodbye Autumn' are very small. It is basically a steadily rising curve."
"And 'Cicada 3' saw a huge sales surge right after it went on sale, breaking 40,000 in a single hour. This is because she already has a fan base. Her previous single sold millions of copies, so many fans immediately bought her new album to support her."
"They also held a raffle yesterday, and quite a few fans went for the prizes. So, aside from the first hour when they were way ahead in sales, we were consistently ahead. Market analysts predict that 'Goodbye Autumn' will overtake them by noon today."
"Yesterday's top and second-place single-day sales were Zhang Han's 'Lost' and Xiao Mei's 'Mr. Stranger,' respectively. However, these two albums have been on sale for over a week. Our two new albums from Tianfeng are bound to have an impact on their sales."
By this time, Xue Congfu had also finished reading the entire document. It was indeed as his secretary had said, the sales of "Cicada 3" were mainly in the first hour of sale, and the subsequent sales were indeed suppressed by "Goodbye Autumn".
Xue Congfu nodded in satisfaction and said, "Tell Xiao Wang from the Publicity Department to invest all his resources into this project today. If he can get 'Goodbye Autumn' to the top of the daily sales charts in a week or so, I'll apply to have the subtitle removed."
At the same time, Feng Xiaoyun, Sister Yan Zichen and Xu Linling also received yesterday's sales data.
Xu Linling frowned. "Although we were ahead in sales in the 24 hours yesterday, based on this data, we're likely to be overtaken today."
Yan Zi didn't really care. In fact, she was very happy to be able to sing the songs she wanted to sing. She really enjoyed the emotional investment in singing, and the joy, anger, sorrow and happiness in the songs made her addicted.
So she said indifferently: "I listened to Guan Yue's album yesterday, it was really good."
"Why are you praising your opponent?" Sister Chen felt a little disappointed.
"Oh, Sister Chen, I'm telling the truth. Guan Yue's EP is indeed good. Of course, I think mine is better, but isn't it urgent now? There's nothing we can do. Besides, my fans have said they will help me promote it. It's hard to say who will win or lose by then."
"Huh, who said there's no way? You underestimate your sister Chen too much. Look at what this is?"
After saying this, Sister Chen handed the phone to Yan Zi.
Just a few minutes ago, Tian Wenbo posted a new update on his WeChat Moments.
"@YanZi's new song is really nice. Looking forward to our next collaboration #Cicada·Three #GoodbyeYouth!"
"Director Tian?" Yan Zi didn't expect Director Tian to post such a message. You know, the target market for her songs now are young people, and Director Tian is naturally past that age.
"Director Tian even called to apologize for what happened last time. Also, 'Goodbye Youth' has already passed review, so he's promoting you now, which is also a way to hype himself up. After all, you're the singer of the theme song for 'Goodbye Youth', and you also have a role in the film."
"The more popular you are, the more popular their TV series will become. The entertainment industry, the entertainment industry, why is it called a circle? This is the reason."
As she spoke, Sister Chen flipped the phone down again and handed it to Yan Zi again.
"And actually Director Tian isn't the main target. Look at this."
Yan Zi took the phone, and this time it was Huang Yayun’s WeChat Moments updates. Huang Yayun was the heroine of "Goodbye Youth", but she didn't have many scenes with Yan Zi, and the two were just acquaintances.
"@Yan Zi I don't know how many times I played it on repeat last night. My eyes are still a little swollen this morning. I think you should treat me to a meal as compensation. #Cicada·Three #Goodbye Youth!"
If the number of likes for the updates of a director like Tian Wenbo is only a few, then the number of likes for the updates of Huang Yayun, a popular young actress, exceeded six digits in just ten minutes, and every time you refresh the page, you can see that the number is still rising rapidly.
"Did you see that?" Sister Chen said proudly, "The post you posted on WeChat Moments yesterday only got a few hundred thousand likes, but other people's posts got over a hundred thousand in just ten minutes. These fans are either curious or they love their idols, so if their idol says something nice, they'll pay for it."
Similarly, the male lead Wang Xuan, the second female lead, the second male lead, and Bai Rong of "Goodbye Youth" all posted updates on their WeChat Moments, and without exception, they were all recommending Yan Zi's new album.
Especially Wang Xuan's dynamic, not only @ Yan Zi, but also @ Huang Yayun, asking her to take him along when eating. Now the two are hyping up their CP, although it is not known whether it is true or not, but at least it seems to outsiders that they interact a lot.
After all, the crew's boss, producer and director Tian Wenbo, has already posted it. If you don't follow suit, do you still want to have the opportunity to work with him in the future? Especially for a director like Tian Wenbo who has a lot of say in the crew, if he doesn't want to use an actor, it will be difficult to get him into his crew even if he bribes them.
