Chapter 626 Holding an Award for Fun



The advantage of being famous is that even though it's still several months before the Chinese New Year, some TV stations in the province have already contacted them to reserve spots for their local Spring Festival Gala.

Whether or not there's money involved in appearing on the Spring Festival Gala is irrelevant. We'll only consider money if satellite TV channels become independent in the future. Right now, appearing on the Spring Festival Gala is mainly about gaining fame.

Another benefit is reflected in album sales. After filming the TV series, Flash Girls and Yan Tian Tuan recorded new albums. When the TV series "Meteor Garden" became popular, their albums were released at the same time.

The album by Shining Girls is called "Boys," and the female version of the song "Sea Waves" that they wanted was given to them.

The album by the girl group Yan Tian is called "Coming of Age Ceremony". The title track is a modified version of the melody of the song "Nobody". It includes all the hit songs of Korean girl groups before 2005.

Upon their release, riding the wave of popularity from "Meteor Garden," these two albums achieved remarkable sales figures of 80,000 and 70,000 copies respectively on their first day of release nationwide, totaling 160,000 copies sold, with CD sales exceeding 100,000.

This is starting to look promising.

Based on the sales trajectory of a single album, these two albums are expected to eventually enter the million-selling club.

The girl group has achieved great success, so the two boy groups shouldn't be destined to be just bystanders either.

After filming wrapped up in August, the two boy bands that played supporting roles in the TV series "Sea Waves" also began recording albums.

Liang Liang has been incredibly busy lately, involved in the production of albums for three girl groups, two boy groups, and his own band. Although he didn't write the lyrics for some of the songs, he found all the music for them. He's been working himself to the bone.

Effort always pays off.

Although I was busy and dizzy, the rewards were quite substantial.

By September, some of the important albums published by Haiyun during this period had achieved remarkable results.

Xu Wei's album has achieved sales of 4.5 million copies in two months, maintaining a monthly sales volume of about 2 million copies.

Based on this trend, Liang Liang's prediction of six million album sales is unlikely to be met.

Blue Shark's own album, "Proud Youth," has been racing forward like a train at full speed since the beginning, and within a month, it has sold nearly five million copies.

As of September 15th, the two albums by Flash Girls and Yan Tian Tuan had been on sale for a full month, achieving sales of 550,000 and 490,000 copies respectively.

Songs published by Haiyun Audio-Visual Company can be heard everywhere in the streets and alleys, and their songs are the most frequently requested at street karaoke stalls.

If there were a karaoke playlist, the top 20 songs would probably all be produced by Haiyun Company.

Liang Liang believes that Haiyun Audio-Visual Company should establish an award.

Starting in 2000, various awards began to be introduced.

As an important part of the domestic audio-visual industry, Haiyun Audio-Visual Company naturally cannot lag behind.

This is a symbol of influence in the music industry, and Haiyun should certainly have its own voice.

"Mr. Liu! What do you think about us organizing a music award? Like the ones we do at music festivals."

Liang Liang revealed his intentions to Liu Wen.

Liu Wen is in charge of audio-visual aspects, and Liang Liang's suggestions will be implemented through him.

Liu Wen has been with Haiyun Audio-Visual for two years now, and he has adapted to life in the North.

The temperature and humidity in the north are low. Although the winters are cold, the climate is dry, which is incomparable to most cities in the south.

This is especially true for older people, as it is a major advantage.

In Guangzhou, if you don't shower for a day, you'll feel like your skin has gone bad, but in the north, you can go half a month without showering and you won't feel that way.

Liu Wen and his boss decided to move their family to Lianwan. As for whether their children would also come to the north, they didn't care.

Haiyun Audio-Visual has been under the leadership of Liu Wen since its inception, and its achievements in the past two years are evident to all.

Now, Haiyun Audio-Visual is the backbone of Haiyun Company, generating more than two-thirds of the company's total revenue annually.

Liu Wen did not comment on Liang Liang's suggestion to hold an award.

He was familiar with these awards when he was the general manager of Pacific.

"Xiao Liang! I don't object to holding an award, but it's a very complicated matter that requires a lot of manpower and resources. I feel it's not worth the effort."

Organizing a review session is, strictly speaking, a thankless task. Even if the songs you review are absolutely fair, keyboard warriors will still insist there's something fishy going on if their favorite songs aren't included.

Moreover, the review process requires selecting from countless songs and expert evaluation, which is indeed a waste of human and material resources.

Unlike twenty years from now, when everything can be done with just a few taps on a computer or phone.

The song that gets the most votes is chosen, which results in countless terrible songs making it onto the charts.

"It's definitely going to be a lot of work, but it's a way to gain a voice. No matter how much work it takes, we have to hold it. In the future, we need to have our own voice in the Chinese music scene, otherwise we will suffer a lot in the future."

The darkness of the entertainment industry is unimaginable to outsiders. Without a voice, you can be manipulated to death without even knowing how.

Liu Wen thought Liang Liang's words made a lot of sense: "Then let's hold it!"

"If we're going to hold one, let's hold the best one. We'll distribute the votes to fans through album sales, and then invite the best experts in the country to make the final evaluation."

Liu Wen laughed: "Distributing votes through album sales? That's a brilliant idea! It distributes votes and sells albums at the same time, ingenious!"

"However, the timing of the awards ceremony is a bit difficult to coordinate. If it is held before the Lunar New Year, it will definitely conflict with the Spring Festival Gala. Some celebrities will not come to the Gala even if they win an award while rehearsing for the Gala."

"Then we can only put it before the Spring Festival Gala rehearsals begin, which means we'll have to pick a date in November," Liu Wen replied.

Put it on Singles' Day? Then register Singles' Day as a trademark, so that in the future, if Taobao wants to use this date, it will have to come to you to buy the trademark, which will cost you millions.

Yes! Register for all the major online shopping festivals like 618, 999, Singles' Day, and Double Twelve, so you can make money from them in the future.

"Isn't it a bit too far to hold the awards ceremony at Pingshan Film and Television City?" Liang Liang asked Liu Wen for his opinion.

Yahe has no airport, so these award-winning actors could only disembark at Lianwan and then drive 400 li (approximately 200 kilometers), which was both tiring and a waste of time for them.

"If this doesn't work, we'll have to hold it in Lianwan."

The film and television city of Pingshan will not benefit from the event being held in Lianwan, which is a sad thing.

It would be great if Yahe had an airport, even just a small one.

This idea is unrealistic. Even in the previous life, in 2019, Yahe did not have an airport, and it seems that the hope is not very high in this life either.

Unless a miracle happens.
