Chapter 122 The Eve of the Storm ([-] in [-])
The next day, it was still daylight.
At this time, Yanjing in the early morning is extraordinarily peaceful and peaceful.
In this tranquility, there is a place, but there is a scene that is very different from the past.
This place is Yanjing's largest collection and distribution center for albums. Every time there is a new album to be released in Yanjing, most of the audiovisual stores or bookstores, etc., come here to pick up the goods.
It is an album distributor of Yanjing who controls this place, and this distributor controls nearly [-]% to [-]% of Yanjing's album channel market.
At this moment, most of the people in Yanjing are still asleep, but there are dozens of people around the entrance of the album distribution center. The crowd is full of chatter, and it looks extremely lively.
"Why, Boss Zhang, are you here too?"
"That's right, I received a call from Boss Shi last night, saying that there is an album arriving today? He also said that the quality of this album is very good, and it is guaranteed to be a big hit, so I must come!"
"Isn't that right, I also received a call from Boss Shi, so I came early in the morning to have a look."
"This situation is very rare. Could it be that this time, some heavenly king or queen will release an album?"
"No, I haven't heard any news about it recently."
"My dear, it's just that the battle is too big. I took a look and saw that almost all the owners of video stores were present!"
"Really? Then it seems that it is really possible that some heavenly king and queen has released a new album, otherwise Boss Shi would not have made such a big fight."
"Well, that's right. Every time we find the time to pick up the album, since there is such a situation of unified pick-up, the only explanation that can make sense is that the king and queen release the album."
"If that's the case, there's another fortune to be made"
At this time, the Boss Shi in everyone's talk was holding an album CD in his hand, and was sitting on the co-pilot of a truck, wanting to scold his mother.
"What kind of plane! Are you playing with me?"
Yesterday afternoon, I suddenly received news from Huaxin Media, asking him to pick up the goods at four or five o'clock this morning.
What did you say that there is a very important album, and the goods need to be spread all over Yanjing this morning!
important?
Still so urgent?There was no warning before?
Hearing the serious tone of the people from Huaxin Media, Boss Shi immediately thought that another superstar under Huaxin Media would release an album this time!
So, he immediately notified all the retailers yesterday and arranged everything properly.
Then this morning he got up early in the morning, and drove over in a van with people in high spirits.
who knows.
"conquer"?
Who is Ai Zhen?
And the retail price is 30?
Damn it!
He originally thought it was the album of some heavenly king and queen under Huaxin!
But when he saw the album's first glance, the photo of the girl on the cover that he had never even seen before, it really made him want to cry without tears!
The point is, such a singer that he has never seen before is selling at a price of 30RMB!
You are kidding me!
Although Boss Shi was dissatisfied in various ways, he had come here, and he dared not refuse Huaxin Media's face. Besides, the owners of all audio-visual stores have been contacted.
"Hey, let's release this album first." Boss Shi gave a wry smile, and could only accept this reality helplessly.
Fortunately, this time, Huaxin Media released the goods directly, and did not charge him any deposit or other money.
Not long after, Boss Shi's truck arrived at its destination.
"Look!"
"I'm coming!"
"It's Boss Shi."
The appearance of the truck immediately made everyone present look sideways.
"Morning bosses." Boss Shi shouted with a smile uglier than crying after getting off the truck.
"Boss Shi, good morning!"
"Boss Shi, is there another big star releasing an album this time?"
"That's right, we must have a lot of background for letting us come here to pick up the goods so early!"
"Is it Naying? Or Chen Ming? Or..."
Upon hearing this, Boss Shi waved his hand and interrupted, "Neither of them."
"Ah? Who could it be?"
Hearing this, the audience immediately burst into exclamations.
I don't even know it!
Boss Shi cursed secretly in his heart, but changed his tone and said: "It should be a new singer from Huaxin Media. Don't worry about so many, let's call people to move the goods. There are a total of [-] albums. Size, I have allocated a quantity to everyone, you can discuss it."
what!
Just a new singer?
Hearing this, many people present were a little unhappy.
A new singer actually made them work so hard to come here to pick up the goods early in the morning, before dawn?
"Forget it, forget it, since everyone is here, let's take the album back." Someone explained.
"Otherwise what else?"
"Oh, take it."
At this time, Boss Shi continued to say: "By the way, the retail price of this album is 30 yuan, everyone remembers clearly. In addition, for the music played in your store these days, you should mainly promote this album."
"What? The retail price is 30?"
"Boss Shi, you're not kidding me!"
"Such a new singer, who would spend this money to buy it! It's not a well-known singer!"
"Yes! Who will buy it?"
Hearing this, Boss Shi pursed his lips, of course he also understands this truth!
But these are all requested by Huaxin Media. This is his big sponsor. If Huaxin Media is offended, Huaxin Media will not give him channels for albums released in the future, and there will be big troubles!So, he had to do it!
After a pause, and after a little thought, Boss Shi said, "Well, it will only take two days. If it doesn't work, you guys will take down this album!"
"Two days? Oh, all right!"
"Boss Shi, next time if it's an album by a new artist like this, don't call me!"
"That's right, can this kind of new artist's album make money? It's a waste of my energy to rush over this early in the morning!"
The owners of various audio-visual stores and bookstores present complained one by one.
Boss Shi could only helplessly listen to the complaints of these bosses. Even he himself felt that today's matter was a waste of time, so he had no way to retaliate.
Fortunately, these albums were distributed in an orderly manner.
Similar scenes are being played out in many cities.
Under Huaxin Media's action regardless of the cost, the distribution of 100 million albums was completed in some major large and medium-sized cities across the country in the early morning of this morning!
At the same time, Yanjing's latest day's "Yanjing Daily", "Entertainment Events" and other newspapers, after yesterday's emergency adjustment and printing, are being distributed to various sales outlets step by step.
Gu Sisi is an ordinary employee of the company.
After getting up in the morning, washing up, and simply dressing herself up, she went out.
On the way to the company every morning, she has two fixed habits.
The first one is to buy two hot buns from the breakfast stand downstairs at home.
The second is to buy a "big entertainment event" newspaper on the way to the company, because she personally likes to read news in this area.
As long as it is a working day, she will definitely do these two habits.
Today is certainly no exception.
When Gu Sisi arrived at the company, she was holding a plastic bag in her left hand, which contained two hot buns, and in her right hand, she was holding a newspaper of "big entertainment events".
While eating the steamed stuffed bun, Gu Sisi looked at the newspaper in his hand with relish.
"Ok?"
Suddenly, the appearance of a name made Gu Sisi's eyes shine.
Yang Yuying?
For Yang Yuying, Gu Sisi really likes her songs so much!
Didn't you say that you have faded out of the music scene?
Is it
Are you coming back?
Immediately, Gu Sisi excitedly browsed quickly.
"The reporter of this newspaper has learned a certain piece of news: Yang Yuying had a brief communication with the media yesterday, and Yang Yuying herself emphasized that she is quitting the music scene!"
When seeing the first sentence, Gu Sisi curled her lips unhappily, and the expectation in her heart was instantly shattered.
"As for why she insisted on quitting the music scene, Yang Yuying did not give an exact reason this time."
"However, at the final stage of the communication, Yang Yuying herself recommended an album to us. Yang Yuying personally gave it a very high evaluation. The name of the album is "Conquer". Friends who are interested can listen to it listen."
In the blink of an eye, Gu Sisi finished reading this short news.
Although I didn't understand Yang Yuying's choice to quit when she was in full bloom, I still blessed her silently in my heart.
""Conquest"?" Seeing these two words, Gu Sisi looked thoughtful.
If she remembers correctly, this seems to be the first time Yang Yuying recommended other albums, right?
It's still highly rated?
"Stains stains."
Gu Sisi smacked her lips, feeling curious about this album called "Conquer".
But it's just a curiosity.
She will not buy this album just because of Yang Yuying's recommendation.
After all, everyone's taste for music is different.
Gu Sisi retracted her thoughts, and continued to look at the newspaper.
"Ok?"
After reading a few more news reports, Gu Sisi was stunned.
Chen Ming even recommended this album.
Mao Ning also recommended it
Man Wenjun.
what's going on! ! !
Why are there so many big stars recommending the album "Conquer"?
Gu Sisi, who came back to his senses, glanced quickly.
Only then did I realize that half of the newspaper's pages were devoted to the "Conquer" album!
Gu Sisi was shocked!
It was the first time she saw such a situation as she followed the entertainment news every day!
"What kind of album is this?"
If she saw Yang Yuying's recommendation before, she didn't take it seriously.
After all, everyone has different preferences. Gu Sisi may not necessarily like an album that Yang Yuying thinks is good.
but!
Now there are so many celebrities strongly recommending it?
This has never happened before!
The current situation made Gu Sisi very interested in this album called "Conquer".
"Well, let's go to the audio store and have a look at it when we have lunch at noon."
Gu Sisi secretly made this decision in her heart.
In Yanjing, apart from the "Entertainment Events" newspaper, there are many other newspapers publishing similar news.
In addition, Yanjing's radio station also began to play songs from the "Conquer" album.
Obviously, Yanjing at this time shows that the situation is calm, but in fact it is undercurrents.
And Yanjing is just a microcosm of many cities in China after Huaxin Media made efforts.
Zhang Yu is the owner of a small video store in Yanjing.
Because the store is not in the downtown area of Yanjing, and the scale of the audio-visual store is not large, so this time he only got 2000 copies of the "Conquer" album.
Among them are 1000 CDs and 1000 cassettes.
After moving these albums back to the store, Zhang Yu looked unhappy.
I ran over excitedly early in the morning, who knew it was an album released by such an unknown singer!
"What a waste of time, I'm wasting my time!"
After putting dozens of copies of "Conquest" on the shelf, Zhang Yu didn't bother to care about them.
As for what Boss Shi said about putting this album in the store and focusing on promoting it for two days.
He has long since left it behind!
In his opinion, who would buy an album by an unknown new singer?
And it's so expensive!
So he doesn't want to waste any more time on this shitty album!Instead of promoting this album, why not play the songs of the previous day in the store, maybe the customers who come to the door will buy it after hearing it?
And Zhang Yu's thoughts and practices are almost the inner thoughts of all the audio-visual store owners in Yanjing at this time.
No record store owner took this album seriously.
Because there is no digital music on the Internet now, and piracy is not as rampant as in later generations.
So at this point in time, 1997, is the most prosperous and golden era of the record album industry, and there will be many platinum records with high sales in the music world every year.
Because of this, there are many video stores.
As time went by, various video stores ushered in batches of customers, but the "Conquer" album did not attract any attention.
Even if a customer discovered this album and was attracted by the cover of the album, but after the customer learned that it would cost 30RMB a piece, this beautiful-looking "Conquer" album was put back on the shelf by the customer.
"Conquer" placed on the shelves of various audio-visual stores has completely become a decoration.
An hour or two passed, but no one was sold!
This result made those video store owners scoff at the album.
In the blink of an eye, it was noon.
During this time period every day, because it is lunch time, the traffic flow of the audio store is the least time point of the day.
And Zhang Yu's shop had almost no customers at this point in time, so he planned to eat lunch at this time.
When Zhang Yu just opened the lunch box and reached for the chopsticks.
Suddenly, several women rushed in from outside.
"Boss, do you have the "Conquest" album here?" One of the women asked bluntly.
Thanks to "Boss Qian i" and "Dugu—Xingchen" for their rewards.
