Chapter 294 Contest
"We must keep Zhou Qiang who made the debut this time."
Of course, Ye Zhao himself is not the only one who holds this idea. Except for fans who absolutely stand on his side and hope that he will win, the staff around him, the senior executives of the record company, including the decision-maker Nagato Daiyuki, everyone is thinking about the same thing.
However, unlike what Ye Zhao thought about defeating the Komuro family, breaking through the blockade of the most powerful boss in the 1990s, and using this as the starting point to attack the top of the way, the other thing that was considered was something else.
At its peak, the BEING dynasty was exaggerated, almost dominated half of the music industry. What kind of grand occasion is Komuro Tetsuya now? What kind of grand occasion is BEING before.
However, when it is prosperous, it will decline. After experiencing its peak period, it is inevitable that it will decline. Even if it is unwilling to admit this, it has been clearly reflected in sales and rankings year after year.
The reason why BEING goes downward is certainly related to the public's aesthetic fatigue, but the Komu family led by Tetsuya Komuro emerges, which is undoubtedly an important reason for accelerating the loss of their territory.
After getting tired of the assembly line, Tetsuya Komuro's magical electronic music captured the hearts of the Japanese public with a rapid momentum.
So this time, when Ai Hui changed the release period of H Jungle With t to the same day as Ye Zhao, in Nagato Daiyuki's mind, this duel was no longer just a duel between Ye Zhao and the Komu family, but became a head-on battle between BEING and the Komu family.
Although even if Ye Zhao wins in this duel, it will not bring much additional benefits to BEING, once he loses in this contest, in Nagato Daiyuki's opinion, it seems like he is being stepped on by the head.
Therefore, even BEING, which has always been low-key and cautious, has used all the publicity methods that can be used within its own abilities without violating the company's principles.
Although it is nothing compared to Ai Hui's powerful publicity efforts - there are not many companies that can compare with Ai Hui's publicity, but this is definitely the highest publicity treatment Ye Zhao enjoys after joining BEING.
In addition to increasing publicity efforts, Nagato Daiyu was also bold in the shipment volume of singles.
For singers, unless they open a record company and become the boss, they control the sales volume of records themselves, they must follow the company's arrangements if they are under the record company.
If Nagato Daiyu insisted on only delivering 300,000 singles at a time, then even if Ye Zhao's fighting spirit was so strong that he could be transformed into a blazing flame that burned all the way to Ai Hui's company, he could only watch H Jungle With t step on him - after all, it is hard to cook without rice, and there is not enough supply, and nothing is empty talk.
When these two singles just entered the printing stage, according to feedback from the record seller, the first batch of orders received by these two singles were 800,000.
Considering the additional additions that will be made in the future, the first batch of orders can receive 800,000 copies, which is already something that only the top-notch batch of sales monsters can do. From this order volume, we can also see how much people are looking forward to his new single after half a year of vacant window.
However, when Ai Hui immediately released the disc report and wanted to fight Ye Zhao on the same day, Nagato Daiyu, who had always been cautious in seeking completeness, actually made a decision and made additional preparations based on the 800,000 copies.
"Osaka Lover/Foreverにともに" The double A single he is optimistic about was added 400,000 in one go, achieving a shipment of 1.2 million. Another single "KISEKI" that made him hesitate before it was released also added 200,000 to the 800,000, reaching 1.0 million.
In this way, before these two singles began to be launched, they had already reached a record of millions of shipments from the Recording Association.
With sufficient supply preparations, this battle of secretly upgraded finally made up for the last shortcoming, so there is no need to worry about the dilemma of being out of stock in the middle and causing a weak successor. In this regard, the pride of Nagato Daiyuki, the music overlord (although he has retreated to second place) can be regarded as a good cooperation with Ye Zhao.
In such a tense atmosphere, it was finally the day when major record stores put Ye Zhao's two singles and H Jungle With t's singles on the shelves on the 25th of March.
Because it was the so-called "lower-black showdown" that has been exaggerated by the media, the staff of the record store cooperated to put the records of both sides together, and also hand-painted a "PK" promotional card on the record stand with a special "concertitude", and even specially marked it with a sentence "Which side do you support?"
The fans of both sides had been brewing their combat power for half a month, and also rushed out of their bodies in an explosive state on this day.
In Shibuya, Shinjuku, Ginza, and in all the record stores, there are queues of people turning around in a long queue. Students wearing school uniforms, housewives, office workers, young people, or middle-aged people who have just gotten off work and have a briefcase under their armpits, have captured one record store after another, leaving the record store cashiers for a moment.
Because they all want to beat each other on the list this week, even some consumers who like to buy slowly after the record is released a few weeks ago have squeezed into this day, or every day of the week.
In terms of stimulating consumers' enthusiasm for purchasing, it is actually not that bad, and it is even better to say that it is a good thing.
For fans, if the singers who follow him have an enemy that needs to fight fiercely this week, they will inspire their competitive spirit. Helping the singers they like to defeat the opponent is to help themselves defeat the enemy. When the singer wins, the fans themselves will feel an unparalleled satisfaction because they participate in this battle.
Put your expectations on someone, and by pushing him to the top, you can get the satisfaction and joy after the goal is achieved. This kind of joy of fighting and sharing together is also the essence of "support culture".
After experiencing the bursting of the bubble era, young people who lost their goals have placed their frustration and confusion that they had nowhere to resolve on a person they like.
