Chapter 393: Sudden Domination!
In mid-October, a song called "CarelessWhisper" dropped on the British pop singles chart. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
At the beginning, the song was only ranked 68th, and PolyGram UK also contributed part of its strength.
But by the second week, CarelessWhisper had quickly climbed to 43rd place, a completely unexpected climb.
On Sunday, October 28th, the third week after "CarelessWhisper" was on the list, it was blatantly sent directly to the ninth position and began to become popular.
And this female singer named Teresa Deng also became popular all over the streets of Britain with this song.
Everyone is inquiring, this singing is so light, bright, and sad...... The female singer of the song of other emotions, who is the sacred, why has she never heard her song before, is she a newcomer in the music world?
Seeing this achievement, Polygram people were pleasantly surprised.
Originally, it was only because of the joint recommendation of Xiangjiang Polygram and Baodao Polygram that they wanted to make a single for this once popular Teresa Deng all over Asia.
The single was written by Teresa Deng herself, and then recorded by PolyGram's people in a music studio in Tunis.
Why was it recorded in Tunisia?
Because this woman, Teresa Deng, was filming a film in Tunisia in October.
And this movie is the recently rumored adventure raider action movie co-created by Lucas and Spielberg.
Yes.
This Teresa Deng is naturally Teresa Teng.
was urged by Polygram's people to make a single by calling all day long, and Teresa Teng was very impatient.
In the last two or three months, she doesn't know how comfortable she is.
Except for some scenes in filming, most of the time, Teresa Teng spent listening to music and collecting style.
In her spare time, she can sit on the street and listen to the singing of wandering singers for half a day, or listen to two music evenings in a night, which greatly enriches her soul.
At this time, Teresa Teng realized that she couldn't do without songs at all, just like the little guy she dreams about most often.
was urged to be impatient, Xiangjiang and Baodao kept calling, so Deng Lijun simply assigned the task to Yin Jun and asked him to help him write a song.
As a result, Yin Jun wrote her such a song "carelesswhisper".
Deng Lijun's English is good, you can understand the meaning of this after reading the lyrics, and seeing that the man depicted in the song is so flowery, Deng Lijun complained about Yin Jun very much.
"You little fellow, how do you understand love so absurd and pessimistic? Isn't love beautiful? Also, explain to me why you write about a man who likes several women at the same time? Are you such a person?"
All right.
For such a song, Yin Jun had to explain it to the queen sister well, and he was careful.
Although Deng Lijun is 26 years old, she is like a child compared to the 20-year-old Le Yiling.
And it is precisely because she has such a pure heart that she can sing such beautiful songs - it is impossible for people with too complex thoughts to perform beautiful music, which is why we see those musicians, after they have been separated from music, become like fools and idiots.
Yin Jun likes Teresa Teng's character very much, and also wants her sister to add more dazzling colors to this world, so she spoils her a little.
Yes.
In Yin Jun's opinion, he, a man in his thirties, should take care of Deng Lijun, who is older than him, like taking care of his sister.
Deng Lijun did not have any dissatisfaction with Yin Jun's attitude towards coaxing herself.
She is a seriously insecure woman herself, and Yin Jun saved her twice, once in the alley behind the bar and once in the hotel fire...... Well, if you count when you were misunderstood and all your thoughts were lost, Yin Jun announced that he supported him in the newspaper, there would have been three times.
Under such circumstances, Deng Lijun did not treat Yin Jun as a child at all, but as a thick chest that could be relied on.
So Deng Lijun completely ignored that Yin Jun was nine years younger than herself, but she was comfortable with Yin Jun's peers, and she would be coquettish from time to time.
After all, there is an unspeakable ambiguity between the two!
It's just that complaining is complaining, and Teresa Teng still likes the sentences and melody of this song very much.
After getting the song sheet and listening to Yin Jun sing it twice, Deng Lijun was able to hum softly.
With Teresa Teng's talent in singing, she just practiced for one day, and then recorded in the studio for half a day to find her feelings, and recorded three versions of "CarelessWhisper" for single production.
Deng Lijun listened to Yin Jun's words very much, so she told Polygram that she and the songwriter had to sign a sharing agreement for this song, which belongs to the kind that the more you sell, the more you will gain.
Polygram doesn't think there's anything overdone, and that's what they do in Europe.
It's just that in places like Asia, where regulations are not strict, they make small moves.
Besides, this is just a single EP, even if you give Teresa Teng and the songwriter good conditions, there is not much money.
At the beginning, PolyGram only recorded 20,000 EPs for Teresa Teng to see if they could be sold in half a year, which was a good victory, which was regarded as introducing the best Asian singers to the British.
But Polygram never expected that after they pushed "carelesswhisper" a little, the song immediately fell like a rocket, and it landed at the top of the chart in the third week, and Teresa Teng conquered British fans with one song.
In the United Kingdom, like the United States, the popularity of chart-hit songs is a comprehensive consideration, but the most important thing is sales.
Following the more than 1,300 after the first week of marketing, it reached more than 5,000 in the second week, and directly exceeded 25,000 in the third week.
In this way, in the third week, all the inventory was sold out, and the record factory took a box out and walked away, but it couldn't satisfy even the fans in London, let alone the rest of the UK.
Polygram claims to be one of the top three record companies in the world today, and once it starts to pay attention to a certain singer and a certain EP, then it will explode with great power.
After two production lines were launched, "CarelessWhisper" topped the British pop music charts in the fourth week, becoming the number one and topping the charts with a terrifying 73,000 copies.
It was also on the 29th, the day of the fourth week of release in the UK, that PolyGram began to send "CarelessWhisper" to Germany, France, Spain, Italy...... and other developed countries in Western Europe, as a result, "CarelessWhisper", which has long been famous, was greatly praised as soon as it was broadcast on the radio, and it was directly airborne in France and Spain to the throne of the champion!
PolyGram was so excited that on the one hand, it gave "CarelessWhisper" five filling lines again, and on the other hand, it launched a bigger publicity campaign and was ready to send it to the Billboard in the United States to hit the charts!
However, at the same time, the people in Polygram's finance department were a little distressed.
According to the current ferocious posture, the EP sales of "carelesswhisper" will go to at least 3 million copies!
If this is the case, Teresa Teng and the songwriter will share a large amount of money ruthlessly, which will greatly reduce Polygram's profits!
But they can't help it, who knew this song would be so popular?
Even the boss of Polygram's record department was alarmed and instructed them to sign an album release deal with Teresa Deng, and use "carelesswhisper" as the title song to make a fortune with the album.
As a result, Teresa Teng refused directly without hesitation.
"I came to Europe to film, and not to relax, not to work. Deng Lijun replied.
"Talissa, you believe me, you have unparalleled musical talent, you must not waste it!" the person in charge of Polygram persuaded her, "You have proven yourself with a big hit song, now is the time for you to conquer the global audience! Let's make an album! We will find you the best songwriter, the best producer, and the best promotion plan, which will definitely make you popular all over the world!"
To be honest, any singer will be moved when they hear such words.
Teresa Teng is no exception.
But she has been releasing albums and touring for the past few years, and she has long been tired.
Now she wants to take a good walk around, play, and take a look, which is a good promotion for her life experience.
If you start to be busy again from now on, then it will be the same as in previous years, you just don't know what to do, and in retrospect, there is only endless emptiness and toil.
After the previous incident of fake passports, Teresa Teng figured out a lot.
So her answer now
It's a rejection.
It's okay to make an album, but not now.
It is necessary to give Teresa Teng time and space for imagination.
encountered such a desireless singer, Polygram had no choice.
Fortunately, they have also seen a lot of strange singers, and it is normal for Deng Lijun to be like this.
What you want is time, okay, we'll give it to you!
It should be okay to take a year for you to prepare this album, right?
Don't ask us why we are so accommodating to you, a singer who can prove that he can be popular has such treatment!

(During the Chinese New Year, I finished eating and saving manuscripts, and I had some free time, but I couldn't write more, and I really didn't want to move in winter.) However, I decided to work hard to repay the gentlemen, so I decided to change the three watches tomorrow without saving the manuscript, which can be regarded as a spur...... In addition, what is the book review area now, don't post messy advertisements that have nothing to do with books!)
