December 31, 2001.
The America Recording Association released a set of numbers.
Linkin Park's first album "Hybrid Theory" has annual sales of 5,018,742 copies, breaking the annual sales data set by Shen Miaomiao and becoming the best-selling album after the new millennium.
As soon as this news came out, the conservatives in America suddenly felt comfortable.
The place was finally found.
Compared with Shen Miaomiao, Linkin Park is a band born and raised in America and is its own band.
However, although the sales of Linkin Park's new album are booming, the songs in the entire album are not as popular as Shen Miaomiao.
Rock and roll is certainly exciting, but not everyone likes rock and roll.
In addition, according to data released by the America Recording Association, Shen Miaomiao's first solo album officially exceeded 10 million.
An album, a diamond record!
Today, Shen Miaomiao has not yet received the diamond record certification issued by the association. All she lacks is the formalities.
As long as she pays a fee, the America Records Association will send her a diamond record.
As soon as the list was announced, the domestic media immediately became excited again.
What does it mean to sell 10 million copies of a single album?
Although there are some famous albums in China that claim to have sold more than 10 million albums, due to the lack of authoritative statistics, it is doubtful whether it really reaches 10 million.
After all, the domestic piracy market is rampant, and the data of various record companies is not interoperable.
Domestic record data is more like a huge black box. Except for the production company, no one knows the specific sales volume of a certain album.
But Shen Miaomiao's first English album is different. America's recording industry has a mature system and the chart data is worthy of scrutiny.
Shen Miaomiao's first solo album is priced at US$12.99 each.
10 million X12.99, the total sales amount is approximately 130 million!
Beautiful knife!
As soon as the domestic media calculated this data, all kinds of reports immediately filled the major pages.
"One and a half years later, one billion sales!" Shen Miaomiao conquers the American record market! 》
"The terrifying ability to attract money, one year!" One billion! 》
"How much money does Shen Miaomiao make?" 》
"Ask her to sink 500 million yuan!" 》
"The most profitable singer in history - Shen Miaomiao"
Money is always a hot topic.
Under the notices of major media, a "gold dollar" storm has arisen in China.
In 2001, the per capita disposable income of residents nationwide was only 4,100 per person.
And Shen Miaomiao's new album sells one billion yuan a year. This amount of money is undoubtedly an astronomical figure.
Even if you can only get half of it, it is still money that 99.99% of people will not earn in their lifetime.
However, although Shen Miaomiao makes a lot of money, there are not so many jealous people.
People earn a lot of money!
The money earned is American money, and the money earned is foreign exchange.
Not only are they not jealous, most of them are very proud.
Looking at the whole of Asia, Shen Miaomiao is also the only one who shits like a scorpion.
Looking at Xiaozi and Xiaobangzi, he looks arrogant when talking about other things, but when talking about Shen Miaomiao, his attitude is not too much to describe as flattering.
Some domestic media even opened a separate news section to translate news about Xiaori and Xiaobangzi praising Shen Miaomiao.
Don't tell me yet.
The first few media outlets that tried it really enjoyed the benefits. The first few newspapers were sold out of stock.
Later, various media outlets followed suit. When there were more people, the traffic was spread out, and the revenue was far less dazzling than before.
But those media outlets that got the first taste of the game won’t suffer.
With porter-style reports, it directly opened up its popularity. Although subsequent sales declined, it was completely different from before.
Beijing.
As soon as Shen Miaomiao's album sales came out, Li Jie inevitably received a lot of phone calls.
Most of them are congratulations.
Wang Fei also called. During the phone call, she also proposed to get together next time when they were free. Originally, Li Jie was prepared to agree.
But when he heard that King Xie Bi was also there, he immediately made an excuse to decline the invitation.
Chef Xie, he doesn’t like it very much.
Seeing that Li Jie declined the party invitation, Wang Fei was a little disappointed, but only a little.
Teacher 'Erjun' is notoriously difficult to get an appointment with.
Some say he has a bad temper, some say he is arrogant, and some say he looks down on others. But no matter what the outside world says, one thing is unquestionable.
In the field of music creation, Teacher Erjun's golden signature is definitely the loudest in Asia.
none of them!
Since Shen Miaomiao's debut, no one can ignore the role of 'Erjun' in achieving today's achievements.
The same goes for the female singer Son Yeon-zi who debuted last year.
An album, each of Teacher Erjun's five songs has swept all the major charts.
Last year, Sun Yanzi became famous, and 'Erjun' was the most critical driving force.
Without 'Erjun', Sun Yanzi would never have become so angry.
In addition, the song "Because of Love" that Wang Fei got was also a hit all over the country.
A glimpse of the leopard, Teacher Erjun has a 100% success rate since his debut!
Golden curvature, 100%!
Such an incredible performance made many record companies cry.
There has been news in the industry that Sony Music spent 100 million just to hire the "Erjun" teacher.
Notice!
This 100 million is just the signing fee.
Other sales volume shares, annual salary, bonuses, and production costs are all calculated separately.
This matter is really not groundless.
Li Jie did receive an invitation from Sony, and it was true that he received a signing fee of 100 million, but Sony also had requirements.
An album must be produced for Sony's contracted singers every year, and at least three songs in this album must be composed by Li Jie himself.
The tailor-made kind.
Of course, the production costs given by Sony are also very generous. The production cost alone is one million US dollars for one album.
The cost of lyrics and music is calculated separately, and the share is calculated separately.
However, Li Jie himself was not interested at all.
Not to mention anything else, just because of Xiaozheng's identity, this road is blocked. Let alone 100 million RMB, even 100 million U.S. dollars can't get him out of the mountain.
Even if he goes out to support others, wouldn't it be good for him to start his own company?
With Li Jie's ability, it's basically not a problem to make one popular, but then again, such days are too tiring.
Once you open a company, you will inevitably have to deal with other people and scheming with each other. That is unavoidable.
People's hearts are the most fickle. If you make someone popular or make an appointment with someone, the more they will want.
This is impossible to eliminate.
Because human desires are endless.
Therefore, instead of wasting those thoughts, it is better to make some money steadily and live a small life.
It's so tiring to fight all day long.
