On the first day of the Lunar New Year, people from all over the country have begun to pay New Year greetings, and children have also reached the stage where they enjoy receiving red envelopes.

Some children are happy this year, because they found that as long as they said they wanted to buy the album "Youth", their parents were very supportive and left some of their New Year's money for them. They even had some extra after buying an album, which gave them a lot of money.

Extremely happy.

However, due to the holiday, some video stores are open, while others choose to close for the New Year. Therefore, some children can still buy albums during the Chinese New Year, while some can only wait until the video store opens.

Since Jingwen Company was on holiday and Ye Fan was also celebrating the New Year, no one was paying attention to this matter. The sales of the "Youth" album quietly experienced a surge.

In the afternoon, Ye Fan made a New Year's greeting call to Zeng Li. Hearing Zeng Li's praise for her on the phone, Ye Fan was very pleased, making the other party smile.

Ye Fan, who was free, could finally live a relaxing life for a few days. Apart from going to relatives' houses to pay New Year's greetings, the rest of the time was spent eating, drinking and having fun, which was very pleasant.

February 26, the eighth day of the lunar month

Jingwen Company has started working normally, and Xu Zhongmin has also returned from his hometown. On the first day of work, he arranged for someone to do a new round of statistics on the "Youth" album.

At the end of the month, when the statistical results came out, Xu Zhongmin was shocked. The actual sales of "Youth" had exceeded 400,000.

However, considering that it has been a month since the last count of 250,000 photos, this data is not an exaggeration. After all, there is the bonus of the Spring Festival Gala.

After Xu Zhongmin was happy, he quickly asked about the quantity of inventory. When he found that there were less than 30,000 copies of "Youth" left in stock,

Because based on this inventory, the channel dealers estimate that there are only tens of thousands of pieces left, and 30,000 pieces may only be enough for a few days.

So this time Xu Zhongmin placed another order for 300,000 albums, which made the tape factory boss very happy. It was a good start to receive such a big order after the New Year.

When Ye Fan heard Xu Zhongmin told him the news, he was happy and fortunate.

Because Ye Fan knew that although the songs in the album "Youth" were good, the music style was many years ahead of its time, and due to the limitations of the style, it was not a mainstream love song.

The reason for this achievement can be said to be the right time, place and people. As long as a big-name singer releases an album during this time period and Ye Fan did not attend the Spring Festival Gala, it would not have this effect.

But no matter what, with the current results of Ye Fan's album, he can already establish his status as the new king of the music industry.

"By the way, Xiaofan, although this data is very good, there are more piracy in various places."

"I heard that there are a lot of kids who buy pirated albums for cheap."

"If you don't have anything else to do later, after the album is recorded, you can start a new round of autograph sessions."

Ye Fan felt distressed and helpless when he heard Xu Zhongmin's words on the phone, especially when he heard that many children had bought pirated albums.

Thinking of the last time he called Zeng Li, she said she would not come back to Yanjing for the time being and that she would have nothing to do next, so Ye Fan agreed: "Okay, I don't have anything to do later, so I will do as you said, Mr. Xu."

Hearing this, Xu Zhongmin said happily: "Okay, I'll let you know when the album is recorded, so that's it, I'll hang up first." After saying that, Xu Zhongmin hung up the phone.

At the beginning of March, in addition to the book signing that was about to begin, Jingwen also called Ye Fan the first installment of the profit from "Youth".

Since Jingwen Company invested a lot of money in the early stage, the two parties agreed that the first settlement date would be within the first seven working days two months after the album was released, and thereafter settlement would be made once a month.

Fortunately, within two months, the sales of "Youth" exceeded 400,000, and the album share was more than 1 million. Otherwise, according to the gambling agreement, the first share would be even less.

However, after 300,000 tickets, the share ratio can reach 73, and after 500,000 tickets, the share ratio can reach 64.

Fortunately, the agreement signed between Ye Fan and Jingwen was not long, only signed in 1997. With Ye Fan's reputation, Jingwen will surely have many more competitors! The conditions provided should be better.

When Ye Fan saw the amount of the first payment, he thought it was really small. No wonder the record industry was in decline.

The sales volume of "Youth" has exceeded 400,000, and Ye Fan's share is quite high. In the end, the share he can get is only a few million at most, and tens of millions is not bad.

No wonder many singers make money by performing one or two good songs, relying on acrobatics and commercial performances, and their album sales are just a matter of time.

This one million share, according to the commercial performance quotation Wang Jinghua said to Ye Fan before, he can get this amount by attending a few commercial performances.

However, Ye Fan is not considering commercial acting for the time being. He understands the principle that rare things are valuable. In addition, he is still young. Now that he wants to do commercial acting, he cannot just focus on money. He must maintain his integrity.

Of course, the album will not only be sold for one year, and the copyright of these songs will continue to bring Ye Fan a steady stream of income, but this will take a long time.

So what Ye Fan is doing now is to open up markets in various places as soon as possible, increase his reputation, and get people to support his genuine album.

In the new year, Ye Fan chose Hong Kong Island for the first stop of the autograph session.

Because Wu Jing's first movie "The Kung Fu Kid" will be released on March 6th.

Two days ago, Ye Fan received a call from Wu Jing, asking Ye Fan to attend the premiere of his movie and ask him to help sing a song at the premiere.

Ye Fan, who was thinking about where to go as the first stop for the autograph session, readily agreed to Wu Jing's invitation. It just so happened that he also wanted to see Hong Kong Island in the 1990s, so he chose this place as the first stop.

On the 4th, after Ye Fan arrived in Hong Kong Island, he made an appointment with Wu Jing and Li Lianjie. When the two knew that Ye Fan would be holding a book signing here tomorrow, they both took the initiative to support him on the platform.

Ye Fan was extremely grateful.

There were not many people at the autograph session on the 5th at the beginning, but when Li Lianjie and Wu Jing arrived, the scene immediately became lively. After the news spread, more and more people came to the autograph session.

Especially when people knew that Ye Fan was Li Lianjie's junior brother, they became more familiar with and recognized Ye Fan, and the album sales also increased, with the sales volume that day reaching 2,500+.

Seeing such sales, Ye Fan and Xu Zhongmin discussed and decided to hold more autograph sessions here.

On the 6th, Ye Fan attended the premiere of "The Karate Kid" and met the two directors Zhang Xingyan and Yuan Heping again. After chatting with them for a while, Wu Jing introduced to Ye Fan the characters in the movie.

Other actors.

There are heroines Zhong Liti, Mr. Yu Hai, Hu Huizhong, professional villain Ji Chunhua, boxing champion Billy Zhou, and the first-generation money-gaining brother Zheng Haonan!

Perhaps because of Ye Fan's reputation, several people had a good attitude toward Ye Fan. However, due to the language problem, Ye Fan talked more with Yu Hai and Ji Chunhua, and even exchanged contact information with them.

The premiere started, and after the leading actors finished promoting the movie, Ye Fan was invited to the stage and sang a new song "Teenage Dream", which fit the theme of the movie and made the premiere even better.

Wu Jing and others were pleasantly surprised when they heard that it was Ye Fan's new song and expressed their gratitude to Ye Fan repeatedly.

The media were also very excited and kept taking pictures of Ye Fan and Wu Jing. It is estimated that tomorrow's report will be about the deep brotherhood.

As the movie started playing, the scene became quiet, and Ye Fan also watched the movie quietly.

I have to say that the fighting scenes in this movie are very exciting, Wu Jing's skills are well demonstrated, and the character setting is quite humorous, but that's about it.

Wu Jing's acting, costumes, plot, etc. all have a lot of flaws. It can be seen that when the two directors were filming, they were still stuck in the style of filming Shaolin Temple. The fight scenes are good to watch, but the audience has improved and they all look to Tsui Hark.

The movie was released, and the subsequent box office data can also prove these problems.

But the film itself is not bad, and it can be regarded as a masterpiece. If it were not for this era, and Jet Li was at the forefront, when martial arts movies were declining in later generations, and if there were more funds and other aspects were strengthened, with the current lineup, the box office would definitely be

Will be a big seller.

After the premiere, the media reporters present gave the film good reviews, but the response from critics and audiences was relatively average, leaving Wu Jing and others disappointed.

Ye Fan knew the result, but he had no other choice but to say some words of comfort to Wu Jing.

…

Later, in addition to promoting the movie at Ye Fan's autograph signing, Wu Jing would also come to Ye Fan's autograph signing to help support the fans. Although Wu Jing's current fame was limited, Ye Fan was still very happy.

move.

Li Lianjie's focus at this time has slowly shifted to Hollywood. After the first day of the autograph session, he flew to Ugly Country.

Ye Fan held a 3-day autograph session on Hong Kong Island and sold over 7,000 albums. He did not continue to hold autograph sessions and planned to take Wang Jinghua and others to play in Hong Kong Island for a few days. After all, work should not forget entertainment.

And Ye Fan's next autograph signing will be in Wanwan...

－－－－－－Digression－－－－－

In the previous gambling agreement, there was something wrong with the share ratio, so I adjusted it.

I didn't go to bed until three o'clock yesterday, and I was out of shape. This chapter may not have been written very well.

It will be released tomorrow. Today's chapter is basically a plot chapter. There is not much to write in the middle. I will go to college in two chapters at most.
Chapter completed!
