Chapter 603

Avril's innocency, Maria Kelly's touch my body, Beyonce's crazy in love, three different styles of single, who will become the champion?

According to the reservation of dingdang.com, Avril's innocence is 121201 copies, Maria Kelly's touch my body is 43580 copies, Beyonce's crazy in love is even less, only 12540 copies.

Online pre-sale, Avril is far ahead. However, there is a reason for this. Most of Avril's fans are young people between 14 and 22 years old. They are most keen on the emerging online trading. On the contrary, Maria Kelly's fans are getting older with the growth of Maria Kelly over the past ten years. Although there are new young fans, they are not as active as Avril in online trading. As for Beyonce, a newcomer, this kind of achievement has been quite good.

Hum—— Howard Stringer, the new president of Sony records, snorted. For Howard Skinner, he has done everything he can. He has united with the other four major record companies in the world to ban "second entertainment" in terms of publicity and sales. There are no radio and TV stations to publicize Avril's new single, no record stores to sell, no newspapers and magazines to comment on it, but their efforts are in vain.

Lin Feng's "fsn-houston" TV station not only has no radio and TV station publicity, but also uses the influence of "Google" to let people on the Internet in the United States search for popular music, and the first pop-up is the official website of "second entertainment" (this does not charge money, it is just a calculation method of "Google" search engine, Lin Feng owns 5% of Google's shares, so it's fair to be partial to Lin Feng in this respect, which makes Sony records, Time Warner and other record companies helpless.

Although Sony records has also thought of buying a certain share of "Google" to fight against Lin Feng, now that the second round of financing of "Google" has ended, Sony records can't enter. Maybe there is another way to wait for "Google" to raise funds again, or to buy after it goes public, but the day lily is cold.

As for the total blockade of record companies, Lin Feng stopped lobbying record companies this time, and even did not use the "Sony gate" attack on record companies to threaten the U.S. record companies to sell "second entertainment" records. Instead, he sold them all over the world directly through "Wal Mart", which left Sony records and other companies helpless.

Finally, Sony records can only hope to reduce the chance of "second entertainment" appearing in newspapers and magazines to reduce the influence of "second entertainment" record company as far as possible, so that Avril and others' record sales are lower than expected. It's a pity that American newspapers and magazines don't report it, but Lin Feng's own Houston Chronicle is full of serial articles and gives a full page to comment on. This makes Howard Skinner and other record company presidents angry.

Moreover, the comments of "hung" and "Yung" not only made the American people have a strong interest in Avril's records, but also made the Houston Chronicle one of the most popular newspapers in the United States through the "gossip" mentality of the general public in the war of words between "hung" and "Yung".

Originally, the Houston Chronicle was only a local influential newspaper in Houston, but after Lin Feng's acquisition, he used the influence of the "Houston Rockets" to make it mainly report the news related to the "Houston Rockets". Especially recently, the "Houston Rockets" had a good record, and Jordan's influence gradually spread from the local newspapers to the newspapers in the United States. However, due to the limited number of talented journalists and the fact that the local newspaper has become a national newspaper, only one sports sector (especially the Houston Rockets) can not support it. The Houston Chronicle is almost the lowest selling newspaper in the United States, with an average of only one million copies.

This time, with the comments of "hung" and "Yung" on music, the two people's war of words on the eighth edition has attracted a large number of readers' interest. Here, I have to admit that the long history of Chinese culture is not comparable to that of American culture with a history of more than 200 years. "Hong" (Huang Guolun) and "Yun" (yuan Weiren) are both highly talented students. In the war of words, quoting a few Chinese idioms makes all American readers infatuated, And the subtlety of swearing is unmatched by experts in other newspapers and magazines (most experts in other newspapers and magazines directly use words like "duck" and "shit").

Of course, the original American readers can not see the mystery of swearing, but Lin Feng skillfully took the form of chat room typesetting and printed them sentence by sentence in the Houston Chronicle. Through the dialogue comparison between the two people, the American readers naturally understood that they were intoxicated by their swearing eloquence unconsciously. Later, many American readers did not rush to find out what songs were on the market, but how they scolded each other.

This has also made the sales volume of the Houston Chronicle keep rising, with an average sales volume of 2.7 million copies. Although it is far less than that of other newspapers, such as the times, which often has more than 4 million copies, it has created a miracle that the sales volume of local newspapers has risen to the national level.

Of course, at present, there are only two sections of the Houston Chronicle that attract people, "music section" and "sports section". Other aspects need to be strengthened in order to truly become a newspaper for sale in the United States or even in the world.

Avril, Maria Kelly and Beyonce, also thanks to the Houston Chronicle, on December 1, the first day of the single's official release, Wal Mart's sales reached an amazing figure.

Avril's innovation sold 72000 copies, Maria Kelly's touch my body sold 103000 copies, and Beyonce's crazy in love sold 54570 copies.

This sales achievement has been very amazing, and it has also made Sony records and other five major record companies in the world look thrilled. If Avril's records continue to be sold hot, it will be a major temptation for their signing artists who are about to expire. You can not only make your own songs at will, but also make more profits than other record companies.

In such a severe situation, the five major record companies have launched their own artists' records. However, in view of the current situation, the major artists naturally do not want to rush to release their records to meet Avril and Maria Kelly, the two pop stars, and spontaneously boycott the company's irrational behavior. At this time, it's absolutely stupid to meet Avril Maria Kelly. No matter who wins or loses in the end, it's sure to hurt both sides.

Besides, Avril's innocency and Maria Kelly's touch my body are both so beautiful. They asked themselves that they couldn't come up with a comparable song at the moment, and naturally they were even more reluctant to touch it.

As for the non cooperation of its major singers, the five major record companies are not in a hurry at this time. In case they go to "second entertainment" one after another after the contract period, they will really cry without tears. In the past, although they used to dig corners with each other, most of them still abide by a "hidden rule", but "second entertainment" will not abide by any hidden rules. With the help of "Google" and "Wal Mart", second entertainment has the strength to challenge the hidden rules of the record industry.

In desperation, many record companies can only let some new or out of class singers who dare not disobey the record companies to send films. However, these new and unsophisticated singers themselves are reluctant, and their own strength is limited, so they have no right to shake the "royal power" of Avril and Maria Kelly.

At the end of the first week, Avril's innocence, with 422340 sales in the first week, beat Maria Kelly's 417580 sales in the first week of touch my body, and became the weekly sales champion of billboard golden melody in the United States. As for Beyonce's crazy in love, she has sold more than 284000 copies quietly. Although her performance is far inferior to that of Avril and Maria Kelly, as a rookie, it's amazing that she can still make such achievements when she releases the film after two popular days.

In the Houston Chronicle, "hung" also ridiculed "Yung"'s eyes for his previous optimism.

However, Avril's innocency was overtaken by Maria Kelly's touch my body in the third week after she won the championship for two weeks. At this time, it's the turn of "Yong" to show off his power.

Seeing that the sales of "second entertainment" records are so good, Sony records and other five major record companies in the world are unable to suppress the strong rise of "second entertainment". The record companies in the United States have begun to interview the senior management of "second entertainment" frequently, hoping that the record companies can also sell "second entertainment" records.

For these record lines, Lin Feng has a sneer in his heart. He refused mercilessly, saying that "second entertainment" not only the album of Avril and other three people on sale this time will not be sold through the record line, but also all the albums in the future will not be sold through the record line.

This statement not only shocked the public opinion in the United States, made Lin Feng a figure in the limelight again, but also made all record companies panic. After all, Lin Feng now has the support of "Wal Mart" and "Dingdang". He doesn't care if he doesn't sell through record stores. In particular, "Wal Mart" retail stores all over the world, itself is equivalent to a super record line, in cooperation with "second entertainment", put Avril and other records in the most prominent place for sale, and also launched discount activities, which is incomparable to other record lines.

If the "second entertainment" really never sells in the record industry, it must be the record industry that loses money in the end. In particular, more and more artists begin to show their interest in "second entertainment", which makes the record industry panic.

In desperation, the record bank headed by "Taoer records" decided to visit Lin Feng, hoping to lobby him. Unexpectedly, he was rejected by Lin Feng again.

Now I want to go back and flatter me, but I don't need you any more—— Lin Feng mercilessly refused again, and even refused to meet.

Finally, with frustration, many record owners left "Neverland" disheartened. Later, although Lin Feng's strength was not resentful, and he followed Sony's record company closely, the rise of "second entertainment", the rise of online music, and the strong invasion of "Wal Mart" into the record sales industry have doomed the record industry to become a sunset industry.

And in this speech, let everyone surprised, no, even can be said to be horrified things happened. As 2003 approaches, Beyonce's "crazy in love" has become the new sales champion of billboard Golden Melody list with more than 1.4 million monthly sales records.

After two days of hard work, a newcomer became the champion of billboard Golden Melody charts in the United States, which shocked everyone. But what's more shocking is that the three singles released by the three major record companies of "second entertainment" have all become the gold medalists, which is really shocking. This also makes artists of other record companies itching to sign up for "second entertainment". Although "second entertainment" will be authorized to have the online virtual image of the contracted artists for free when signing the contract, many stars do not value the online virtual image copyright relative to the profits they get.

At least before the Internet has completely become the main way of human life, many artists do not value the copyright of this online virtual image.

For a while, the hearts of many record companies are floating. Even Howard Skinner and others are increasing their bargaining chips, but in the face of the absolute interests of "second entertainment", their contracts have no advantage at all.

Damn "second entertainment", damn chinese, we're not finished—— Howard Stringer, President of Sony records, said angrily.

The strong rise of "second entertainment" in the recording industry has been unstoppable.

When Avril and others were selling records, Lin Feng had returned to Shanghai. With the momentum of "bloodbath" in the recording industry, he returned to Shanghai.
