Hua Zhang continued: "This time, are we going to fuck the real guy?"
"No." Fan Keqin thought for a moment and said, "I believe there is a high probability that we can detect something with the real guy. But once we get the real guy, I'm afraid it will be more difficult in the future. It's okay, let's wait." "
The two checked the situation again, memorized all the information they knew now, washed up and went to bed.
On the second day, Fan Keqin and Hua Zhang got up, packed up and went out to go to work. After all, Fan Keqin is still the director of the art department of the Shanghai Film and Singing Production Company. In later generations of entertainment companies, this would be the position of art department director.
Fan Keqin came up with another song. In addition to business matters in the past two days, there must be no lack of "drama" to cover up his identity. Hua Zhang and the band have been rehearsing for several days, and today they are almost ready to record a vinyl record.
Speaking of the previous songs, Shanghai Film and Singing Production Company has already started releasing them. This company's creative capabilities are not good, but its production standards and distribution capabilities are quite good. Otherwise, it would be impossible to make money. It’s even less likely that it hasn’t gone bankrupt until now.
Three days ago, in all the record stores in Shanghai, basically everything that was available and relevant was on sale. The distribution capacity covers approximately 40% of the record stores in Shanghai.
Today is the first time to check the accounts. In fact, it stands to reason that the accounts should be checked basically once a month, or even once every once in a while. However, for the new style of records, we must see how they perform. If they sell well, we can step up the production of more records.
The morning passed quickly. Zhang Shanxing hurried to Fan Keqin's supervisor's office. He couldn't control it as soon as he came up. He laughed loudly and said: "Teacher Zhang, I just checked, there are more than 5,000 photos. You and your wife recorded it." The record and those songs sold a total of more than 5,000 copies in three days. Hahahaha. Now, our company's reputation for original music has been established. It's all thanks to you and your wife. . Don’t leave until you get off work in the evening, I’m treating you. Let’s have a nice drink.”
There are more than 5,000 copies. In later generations, when the Internet era emerged and the record industry was basically on the verge of death, even a well-known singer could sell at least tens of thousands of copies if he released a record. So it seems that the current number of more than 5,000 pieces seems to be very few.
In fact, the accounts cannot be calculated like this. What era is this in? Do you know who listens to music and vinyl discs? Record players can be said to be extremely expensive. Can ordinary people afford it? There are definitely rich people in this era, but can they compare with later generations? A Walkman is so convenient that anyone with a serious job can afford it. But it's not possible these days. If your home doesn't reach a certain thickness, you can't even think of a record player.
In addition to rich people, some high-end hotels, guesthouses, bars and other places will also buy record players. But the penetration rate is really low. But even so, more than 5,000 vinyl records were sold in three days, which is equivalent to the level of "sales crazy" in later generations. To put it bluntly, do you know Elvis Presley? Do you know John Lennon? If the two people were in the same environment as the same period last year, if they were thrown into the current situation, they would not dare to say that they could sell more than 5,000 copies. Otherwise, how could Zhang Shan be so excited?
So that's such an exaggeration? Sold so well? There really is. After all, the quality of Fan Keqin's "original" music is beyond the era, but it can still be accepted by people of this era. Moreover, people from wealthy families pursue spiritual enjoyment even more. If there is something good, it must be obtained. I went to a friend's house today and heard some good songs. I enjoyed it very much. No, I have to get one at my own house. Then when I went to the video store to buy it, I asked about it. The store owner also wanted to sell more products, so he must recommend fan works.
So these three days may not be long, but the word-of-mouth fermentation has been very strong. Basically, in the greater Shanghai area, many people who have record players at home, as well as in some hotels, bars and other places, have purchased records by Fan Keqin and Hua Zhang.
There are definitely the most wealthy people in Shanghai these days. A record player is conservatively estimated to cost over 100,000 yuan. These are all potential buyers.
Of course, this does not mean that there are 100,000 rich people in Shanghai this year. Rather, I mean those who can afford a record player. Furthermore, there are many concessions in Shanghai, all kinds of concessions, foreigners like to play this kind of style, which is actually quite normal and not surprising. In addition, Shanghai's entertainment industry is indeed the most developed area these days. There are indeed many dance halls, nightclubs, and various entertainment venues. Otherwise, Shanghai is known as the "Flower World" these days. That's why. Therefore, there are only so many record players.
When Zhang Shanzheng said, "I'll go down and tell Mrs. Wan the good news later." There was a knock on the door.
Fan Keqin pretended to be smiling and excited, and was happy with Zhang Shan. Hearing the knock on the door, the smile on his face did not change and he shouted: "Come in!"
After the door opened, Zhen Qiang walked in from the outside. After seeing Zhang Shan, he said, "Hey, the boss is here too." As he spoke, he had already closed the door.
Zhen Qiang walked over mysteriously, glanced at Fan Keqin with a slightly ambiguous look, and said, "Brother Wan, my brother and sister are still down there with the sound engineer, recording the record, right?"
"Ah." Fan Keqin nodded and said, "What's wrong? What's that look in your eyes?"
Zhang Shan also smiled and said, "Just tell me if you have anything to say. Is there any good news?"
"Uh...it's good news." Seeing the boss's question, Zhen Qiang stopped being pretentious and glanced at Fan Keqin. The corners of his mouth could not help but curl up and said, "Miss Tong is here and wants to see you by name. I said I'll come up. Let's see if you're here. We've already invited people to the reception room. What's going on? You and Miss Tong? Huh? Huh?" As he said this, he raised his eyebrows greasyly.
Before Fan Keqin could answer, Zhang Shan's eyes lit up and he said, "That Miss Tong? Is she the one from Director Tong's family?"
"Ah, yes." Zhen Qiang nodded and admitted.
Zhang Shan rubbed his hands happily, looked at Fan Keqin, and said, "Hey, Ah Heng, what is your relationship with Miss Tong? Ah? How is your relationship?"
What does it have to do with it? It's just that he got interested after meeting me.
Fan Keqin smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. It was the last time we performed at the Golden Palace. Boss, do you remember? After you sent me there, someone seemed to have dragged you away to drink, so you were not there... …”
