Aside from these songs with strong ethnic characteristics, the rest are purely Western in style. The alternation of these two styles always manages to leave foreigners speechless.
Liang Liang wasn't sure if the foreigners would be dumbfounded, but he was dumbfounded first.
He was startled to learn that Haiyun Audio-Visual was going to release a music festival album.
Less than half a month after the music festival ended, Liu Wen is already releasing a music festival album?
Isn't this a bit hasty?
Although they have the footage from the scene, post-production is quite troublesome.
Is an album going to be released in just half a month?
Liang Liang saw the demo tape of this album in Liu Wen's office.
The second Haiyun Music Festival featured over one hundred bands and performed more than two hundred and thirty songs.
After removing some songs that did not meet the requirements for publication, there are still more than eighty songs left.
These songs were eventually selected again, resulting in fifty more songs that made four albums.
It must be admitted that Liu Wen's team is incredibly efficient; they produced samples of all four albums in just over ten days.
Liang Liang was quite satisfied after looking at the catalogs of the four albums.
"Mr. Liu! Are you planning to launch all four albums at once?"
If all of these were released at once, it's uncertain how many people would be able to buy all four albums at once.
“I think if we release them all at once, fans won’t be able to afford them. Also, if we release them all at once, these distributors will order too many copies. If they can’t sell them, it will be a blow to their confidence. So I plan to release one copy a month.”
If four albums are released at once, and each distributor orders 100,000 copies of each, it will be easy to sell them.
If not all of them can be sold, it will result in a large backlog, which could be a fatal blow to some distributors.
Liu Wen's idea makes a lot of sense.
What is the order quantity?
"Not a lot, maybe 800,000! There are 150,000 VCDs."
Liu Wen is really getting cocky now; even an order of 800,000 isn't considered a lot anymore.
If there are 800,000 audio tapes, then there would be 150,000 VCDs?
This means that the number of Shadow Butterfly machines installed has increased significantly again.
The proportion of VCD production will continue to increase.
Liang Liang agreed with Liu Wen's approach of publishing one book per month.
On May 20th, an album called "Sky Fire 1" suddenly appeared on the market.
This album also has a subtitle: Ocean Rhythm Music Festival Collection.
The album's sales weren't exactly booming, but they weren't slow either; it stubbornly maintained a steady sales pace in the market.
In Lianwan, the hometown of this album, its sales have been quite booming.
Within ten days of its release, it sold 50,000 copies in Lianwan and over 5,000 CDs.
Based on this sales momentum, the 800,000 units shipped will definitely be absorbed by the market.
A month has passed in the blink of an eye.
With visas issued for Liang Liang and the other five bands and their entourage, the delegation began preparations for their trip to Europe.
Han Chui, along with several of his men and Hannamia, went to Germany ahead of time to prepare for the main force's departure for Germany on June 12th.
The only regret is that the European Championship has already started.
The 1996 European Championship kicked off on June 8th in the British Isles.
By the time Liang Liang arrived in Germany, the European Cup had already been underway for five or six days.
This has cost him so much less money!
On the eve of his departure for Europe, Liang Liang, as usual, made some arrangements for what would happen after he left.
We toured everything from dance halls and nightclubs to small theaters, music stores, and guitar factories, and finally arrived at the courtyard of a music school.
In a dance studio, Liang Liang watched Tao Jin and his male students.
The gold rusher's lover teaches a girls' class in another dance studio.
These students have been learning from the couple for more than ten days and are currently in the stage of building their basic skills.
Upon seeing Liang Liang, Tao Jin told the trainees to rest for a while and then came over to greet Liang Liang.
"Tao-ge! Have you finished composing your piece yet?"
Over the years, Tao Jin has indeed composed quite a few songs, but some of them belong to other people, and he only has three or four songs that are his own.
The most famous are "Hearing the Rooster Crow and Getting Up to Dance" and "The Fiery Years".
In his previous life, he was preparing to record three music videos and a song album, but he died of illness.
His wish will surely come true in this lifetime.
A few days ago, Liu Wen asked him to organize his music so he could make a plan.
"I've been busy teaching these days, working on the teaching syllabus for these students. I haven't even finished organizing my own pieces yet."
"You need to hurry up with this. Mr. Liu needs to come up with a plan before the album can enter the actual preparation and production stage. If it's delayed too long, it might not be able to be released before the end of the year!"
"Mr. Liang! I'll get my songs sorted out in the next couple of days."
"I've written a few songs for you these past few days, but we'll have to wait until we get back from abroad to finish them."
Liang Liang is currently busy preparing for his overseas performance, and the fact that he still has time to write songs for him is both surprising and touching to Tao Jin.
This proves that Liang Liang takes him very seriously.
Liang Liang took out several sheet music and handed them to Tao Jin.
"Here are three tracks, plus 'Buddha's Words,' and your own track. That'll be about it for the album. Take some time to familiarize yourself with them. Once you're familiar enough, I'll have Mr. Liu arrange for you to record it."
Tao Jin took the sheet music; the first song was called "I Drink Alone and Get Drunk."
I drink alone and get drunk.
This time, the beauties are all in pairs.
Both eyes are uniquely aligned
I only ask that one day we can return together...
He didn't have time to look at the melody, but the lyrics were catchy and very rhyming.
The second song is called "Happy Worship".
This song is completely different in style from the first song. The first song is a legend, while this song, "Happy Worship," is sung first and then told.
The third song has a rather strong title, which can instantly lift one's spirits.
The name of this piece is "Huaxia" (China).
Dust can play out youth.
The vast expanse of Yanhuang bathed in the glow of the setting sun
Five thousand years of history are like flowing sand.
Never forget your soul entering China
…
This song and the second song follow the same pattern: singing first and then speaking, a common Western rap style.
I fell in love with gold panning the area after just one time.
"If you don't have enough songs, I'll have to wait until I come back from abroad to put together two more for you."
"Mr. Liang! Thank you!"
“We’re family now, so saying thank you is too formal. If your album sells well, I’ll make money too. The main thing is that you need to choreograph the corresponding dances for these songs. The VCD is the key to your album sales.”
"That's no problem."
Given his current fame, Liang Liang could only offer him a 20/80 split of the gold rush profits.
If the album sells 300,000 to 400,000 copies, you can earn 200,000 yuan by making money.
It all depends on whether rap fans will accept it now.
