Chapter 537: Brilliant Sales Are Just the Beginning! (First Update!)
The next day, that is, on Friday the 16th, when Yin Jun was busy here, Deng Lijun's Japanese album "The Goddess in the Toilet" was grandly launched under the attention of everyone. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
According to Yin Jun's request, Teresa Teng only did a promotional event at two record stores in Tokyo that day, sang a few songs, and signed thousands of albums.
Miura Hui'an was much more nervous than Deng Lijun, and he led a group of Polygram personnel, staring at the telephone and fax machine all the time, waiting for the information of each sales area to be summarized.
Everyone knows that Teresa Teng's album is going to explode, but they don't dare to say how far it can explode.
After all, the number of single album sales in Japan only exceeded 1 million in the past few years, and in the last year or two, only a handful have been able to reach 1 million.
Teresa Teng brought the reputation of "the world's No. 1 Asian female singer" and the huge glory of the top seller in more than 20 countries, "honored" Japan, and the Japanese fans who regarded Teresa Teng as their own people were of course very popular.
But the first production of 3 million records, the ultimate preparation of 5 million records, makes anyone tremble when they say it.
Some opponents came out with sour words after learning the news a few days ago.
"Tsk, dare to love Telisa back, it's for our record, so confident!"
"3 million copies for the first time? Am I right? Who does she think she is? If she is powerful in the United States, can she run rampant in Japan?"
"Oh my God, she really wants to set a record, don't hope for it, the more disappointed it gets!"
"People's 1 million records are only available after one or two years of accumulation, and your 5 million copies of Talisa are ready to be sold for 10 years, right?"
"Hehe, Polygram is such an idiot, "The Goddess in the Toilet" sells well, it doesn't mean that all of Telisa's songs are good!"
"I heard that all the songs in her album were written by the mysterious Jun, that is, a friend of Teresa Xiangjiang, how can a Xiangjiang person understand our Japanese culture?
"That's it! Xiangjiang can only sing our Japanese reproduction songs, how can there be good originals?
“……”
With the singing and declining of such a group of people, Miura Hui'an, who made the decision to prepare for the first phase of 3 million injections and 5 million final sales, also muttered a little in his heart.
But things have reached the point where the arrow is ready to be sent, and when it has to be sent, Miura Huian can't care so much.
While asking for the blessing of God and Buddha, he carefully stared at the sales data of the first day.
At half past eleven o'clock in the evening, large record stores sent the results one after another.
At this time, there is no such thing as online sales, so usually after the store closes at 9-10 o'clock, you can start counting the number of sales in a day.
Although they don't have computers, the Japanese have always been rigorous in their work, and the sales data quickly went from small stores to large stores, and then to the regional headquarters.
"Shizuoka Prefecture XX Records sells 2,323 copies today!"
"The total sales of XX Records and Audio Clubs in the Shikoku region are 22,169 copies!"
"The total distribution of XX Osaka is 7,290 sheets!"
"A total of 14,890 tickets are sold at xx28 stores in Ikebukuro, Tokyo!"
"Sapporo xx record chain is 5,992 copies!"
“……”
At 2:30 in the morning, all the statistics came out, and looking at the numbers in front of him, Miura Hui'an, who had been busy all day, trembled a little.
He couldn't believe what he was seeing.
"The Goddess in the Toilet", May 16 (gold), sold 623218 copies on the same day!
That's right!
More than 620,000 copies were sold in one day!
Oh, my God!
Teresa has sold countless singers in one day, and the record sales of a lifetime!
The last time I sold 1 million, it took a full 32 weeks to sell this number.
Her record, Telisa may be able to break it in two days!
Oh my God, apart from those big singers in Europe and the United States, where in Japan are there people who sell more than 1 million albums in two days?
At this rate, 5 million is just around the corner!
Really!
Sure enough, Teresa is a genius! Mr. Jun is a genius! I, Miura Hui'an, am also a discerning talent!
At the same time that Miura Hui'an was excited to satisfy his pride, the employees of Polygram next to him had already cheered.
During this time, in order to record a record for Deng Lijun, in order to run sales outlets for Deng Lijun, and in order to make publicity methods, they were very busy.
But today's achievements proudly tell them that your hard work is worth it!
The history of the Japanese record industry has been created by the people of Polygram!
Coming back to his senses, Miura Hui'an looked at the cheering employees, and couldn't help but smile, "Everyone hurry up and find a place to rest, now Telisa's success is just the beginning! The next publicity and signing will be vigorously launched! We strive to show the record industry people all over Japan what it means to be invincible in the world!"
"Yes!"
Success is the best excitement, and although employees want to rest, the excitement has not dissipated.
"Go quickly, otherwise I won't be able to spare you if the publicity is delayed!" Miura Huian smiled and waved his hand, "By the way, all of you, as well as other staff, this month's salary will be double-paid! If the sale exceeds expectations, then I will definitely give you two more months of salary at the end of the year as a bonus!"
"Wow......"
"Hooray!!"
Hearing this, a group of people were even more overjoyed.
It is a happy event to achieve success at work, and it is even more joyful to be able to get more salary and go home!
……
When Yin Jun got the news, Deng Lijun was going to Shinagawa District to do publicity.
Tokyo is one of the largest urban agglomerations in Japan, and although it has not expanded into a behemoth as much as it has since been, it has long been the largest in Asia.
In the 80 years, Tokyo is still the main urban area by the 23rd district, and it is the center of Japan's economy, politics and culture, so Teng Lijun's more than ten days of publicity and planning, 5 days are in Tokyo.
The remaining five days are in Osaka, Kyoto, and Nagoya, and the remaining five or six days are spent in other major cities in Japan.
Deng Lijun didn't dare to tell Yin Jun that according to the current sales boom, she probably wanted to increase her publicity time for half a month and go around every big city in Japan.
Sister Tianhou didn't know that when she heard that there were only more than 620,000 copies on sale on the first day, Yin Jun was a little disappointed.
The boy knows that the current Japanese record sales cannot be compared with the first day sales of AKB48 to break 1 million copies in the future, because that is already the peak of the marketing of Japanese idol groups, and now Japanese singing has just started, and it will not continue to refresh the peak until the 90s.
But all of the works he came up with were the No. 1 works on the Japanese public trust chart! No single EP sales per song were less than 1 million copies!
What's more, there is also a super classic heartwarming comedy like "The Goddess in the Toilet", which will never go out of style no matter when and where it is placed.
In addition, there are no flowers blooming in Japan now, and idols are even very scarce, so Yin Jun believes that Deng Lijun's album cannot be sold more than 1 million on the first day, and it should be more than 800,000, but I didn't expect it to be more than 620,000.
It seems that everything is not good in a hurry.
In fact, Yin Jun knew that he was too demanding.
Be.
The AKB48 album sold more than 1 million copies on the first day of release, but that just exploded all the enthusiasm at once, and the sales dropped directly to less than 100,000 copies the next day, or even 20,000 or 30,000 copies.
To put it bluntly, their fan base is just a little bit, and it will be over when it is sold out, and there will not be much increase.
Teresa Teng's record is extremely good, and any song that comes out can stand scrutiny and repeated listening.
With such a record, it is certainly impossible for sales to plummet the next day.
On the contrary, with the spread of word-of-mouth, "The Goddess in the Toilet" will definitely be a long-term hit.
In places like Japan and the United States, where the market is mature, it is too easy to sell a record for a year or two, for seven or eight years, or more than ten years.
Don't believe it.
Why did Michael Jackson's "Thriller" sell 100 million copies?
Do you really think it was sold in a year and a half?
It took twenty or thirty years for people to sell for such sales!
That is, the Japanese market is too small, the number of people in the English record market is more than 2 billion, and most of them are rich developed countries, while the Japanese audience is only 120 million, and it is remarkable to add a little fans in South Korea and Southeast Asia, no more than 150 million.
With such a ten-fold gap, how can you compare?
Therefore, Yin Jun feels that the final sales of Teresa Teng's record should be able to break through Hikaru Utada's god-like record of 7.65 million copies, but whether it can break through 10 million copies, I don't know.
Even now, Deng Lijun did not break 1 million on the first day, and Yin Jun did not change such confidence.
And the Japanese market is just the beginning.
In the next 30 years, the center of the world's singing industry will still be the United States.
Taking advantage of Teresa Teng's young age and her state is at her peak, Yin Jun is ready to prepare another super English album to come out, so that she can create an unprecedented super sales record!
If it is a record in a language like English, the peak of the female singer's single record was created by Canada's Shania Donn, "ComeOnOver" has sold more than 40 million copies worldwide, and Celine Dion, Mariah Carey, Madonna, Whitney Houston and other diva singers can only bow down.
Teresa Teng may not have 40 million English records because she is Chinese, but this is not absolute.
You must know that the diva singers who will gallop in the music scene in the future have basically not yet appeared on the music scene, and none of the current female singers in the music scene have a leading existence.
Once Teresa Teng occupies this vacuum period, coupled with Yin Jun's good songs, Polygram's crazy publicity and promotion, and the previous word-of-mouth, 40 million copies, seven or eight years later, it will not be impossible to achieve!
After all, no matter what you say, the song comes first.
A good song and a good voice can move people's hearts no matter what country you are from.
Aren't our Chinese fans the same?
Even if we are not familiar with English, Japanese, and Korean, we can enjoy good songs that directly touch our hearts.
Yin Jun has little interest in the music scene, which is known from his attitude towards the future superstars of Xiangjiang.
But for Deng Lijun, he has deep feelings, and the two have a fate in this life, so the young man is naturally willing to help her.
Besides, the satisfaction of creating a world-class diva by herself is also incomparable!
