Chapter 455: The Unparalleled Exhilaration!
Brock left, but the music in the coffee shop in Cesc town continued.
At the same time, there are many similar things happening in the United States, in North America, in Europe.
Life is always full of difficulties and obstacles. In the face of those difficulties in life, some people will go forward bravely, while others will inevitably be confused. In fact, all they need is a little encouragement to hold their heads high and make great strides forward.
Books, music, movies, and even an unintentional word from passers-by can encourage people in many cases.
As a newcomer in the European and American music market, under Li Qian's careful arrangements, Liao Liao's first global album is full of positive energy that can inspire people.
Therefore, those who don't care about the addition of a newcomer to the music market or the addition of a few good pop songs in the world, when they suddenly hear a certain song at a certain special moment, their hearts will rise. Ripples, his heart will be impacted, and his whole body will be encouraged.
Then, when Bullock hurried into the video store, said that awkward name, bought a copy of "My-heart-will-go-on", and went to the gift shop to be carefully wrapped, and then held Flowers, when preparing to confess to his ex-wife, in many places in this world, there are countless people doing similar things.
The difference is that some people decide to formally confess to the girl they have been secretly in love with for a long time, some people muster up the courage and decide to quit their current jobs to find a better version of themselves, and some people decide to stand up again and pick up their own life. pride.
They like, or "You're-still-the-One", or "Through-the-rain", or "No-one", or a few other songs, but there is no doubt , Uplifting and inspirational songs can always gain the spiritual identity of more people in a wider range.
What is especially rare is that whether it is the faint warmth of "The Forgotten Time", the lingering Chinese classical love expression of "The Hairpin Phoenix", or the rich and novel flavor of Peking Opera in "Rap Mask", or " In "Paradise", the singer's love for home, love for the prairie and nature, which can be clearly felt without understanding the lyrics, certainly cannot win the ears of all European and American audiences, but at least, as a great The first Chinese works that most people have heard in their lives, apart from throwing away the first feeling of novelty, they are at least not disgusting.
For Chinese songs, this is already a certain degree of success.
What's more, there are many European and American fans who are obsessed with this flavor from the far east even at the first time.
The oriental folk songs of "The Forgotten Time", the oriental opera style of "Rap Mask" and "The Hairpin Phoenix", and the pure listening enjoyment of "Paradise"...they are inherently beautiful, even if there is a cultural barrier, but But it can't change the fact that they are extremely beautiful. Good music like this lacks only an initial motivation to make European and American listeners willing to calm down and listen.
The popularity of "Titanic" and the mysterious attraction of the "Titanic Girl" from the East just gave them a reason.
How the word-of-mouth of the album "My-heart-will-go-on" gradually spread is unknown and difficult to investigate. , gradually began to turn to unprecedented popularity, but it can be easily seen from the sales data and the shipment data of record companies.
Another point is the bulletin board that symbolizes authority.
In the first week of its release, in just three days, "My-heart-will-go-on" has already ranked sixth on the Billboard album chart!
And just this week, in addition to "My-heart-will-go-on", which is also the title song of this album and the title song of the original soundtrack of the movie "Titanic", relying on strong word-of-mouth and the same strong inertia, still In addition to occupying the No. 1 single on the billboard, there are three songs in this album that have successfully entered the top ten——
"You're-still-the-One", third place.
"Could-I-Have-This-Kiss-Forever", No. 6.
"I-will-always-love-you", seventh place.
It can be said that in less than a week, the name LIAO-LIAO once again shocked the entire English-speaking music circle. Billboard officials even used as many as seven adjectives in a row to praise the album— —Said it was "amazing", "mixed with many genres but reached great heights without exception", "scented with roses", "full of praise to life", "beautiful but strong , "Ecstasy," and "Full of wonder."
As for the music column of the "New York Times", it is even more exaggerated than this-this oriental girl has brought us a miraculous album!
Even, some Western musicians gave quite high praise to the four Chinese music works contained in this album. For example, there was a review article in the Los Angeles Evening News, which praised: "LIAO is in this album. The gorgeous vocals and elegant and classical love of the oriental opera presented to us seemed to lead me on a fascinating oriental journey.”
At the same time, because it was released simultaneously all over the world, there was almost no suspense. It only took three days for this album to reach the first place in the sales list of Dongguan Bookstore!
And this week, Zhao Yuan's first album was supposed to hit the No. was suppressed.
The same week was the fourth week of Zhao Xinfu's new album. Last week, he was still firmly in the first place, and he was more than 6,000 copies behind the second place Zhao Yuan. But this week, there is no doubt that he is also He was directly killed by Liao Liao!
Of course, what is pleasing is that Zhao Yuan also followed behind Liao Liao and overtook him!
In fact, there were more than 11,000 copies in a single week, which is a result that is usually enough to compete for the top ranking, but this week, he can only rank second, because "My Heart Will Eternal", directly Swiped an amazing score of 73825 in a single week!
Ranked after "Once Upon a Time", this album became the second best-selling album in the first week of Dongguan Bookstore's history!
What's more, what is even more exaggerated than the rave reviews in the European and American music circles is that although this album only includes four Chinese songs, the domestic media, large and small, have dispatched their strongest lineups to analyze them one by one. , and finally came to a conclusion: Although there are only four songs, these four works are absolutely sincere, and to a large extent, it can be said that they represent the highest level of Chinese contemporary music, and are rich in the accumulation of Chinese culture !
In a word, take these four works as the representative works of Chinese music and promote them to the outside world. They are not only competent, but also can make domestic music colleagues feel proud!
Of course, in the face of as many as six English songs in this album, the domestic media temporarily chose to turn a blind eye. It was not until the professional comments from Europe and the United States came out that the domestic media reacted as quickly as possible—— Big excerpt!
They probably want to tell the fans and listeners in China: Look, this is an English song. Let’s say it’s good or bad, it doesn’t count. The most important thing is, have you seen it? ,Excellent!
Even without the unscrupulous praise from the domestic media, for the majority of Liao Liao fans, this is already a rare carnival. You know, it was originally expected that Liao Liao would take a rest this year, but now they still heard the album , This is of course a surprise, and now that the media is also touting their idol so hard, those die-hard fans are naturally extremely excited.
However, after getting the first week's data from Dongguan Bookstore, Qi Jie and the others were overjoyed, but Li Qian didn't react too much after reading it. When Qi Jie asked, his answer was: " It’s a bit high! There are only four Chinese songs, and they are all works that don’t have much of a pop nature, which is why Liao Liao can sell like this. However, when the hype subsides, it will probably fall next week.”
Qi Jie couldn't believe it.
However, it turned out that this album only achieved sales of 53,638 copies in Dongguan Bookstore in the second week of its release!
Compared with the first week, which was only sold for three days, this data is not only the first time since Liao Liao's first album "Liao Liao" that the second week is not as good as the first week, it can even be regarded as a sharp drop!
What's more, not only the inside of Minghu Culture, not only Qi Jie, but even the domestic media and domestic musicians were all surprised after seeing such a result, so that the major newspapers in those two days , all subconsciously avoided the topic of sales, and only a few serious newspapers, after reporting that the album's sales plummeted in the second week, gave a considerable sales analysis——and Li Qian's analysis is roughly the same.
However, the domestic media's silence on the sales of this album only lasted for a few days before it was completely reversed.
This is not only because of another good news from the billboard. It is not just because in this week, the six English songs of the album "My Heart Will Go On" all reached the top 20 on the billboard this week, and it is not even because the album is in the second week. Historic entry into the top three of the Billboard Albums chart!
The most important thing is that on this Thursday, that is, on July 1st, Rolling Stone Records released a sales bulletin, officially announcing that as of June 30th, the album "My-heart-will-go-on" will be sold in all countries except China and Japan. Shipments to other parts of the world other than the four countries in Southeast Asia have officially exceeded 11 million copies! After adding the data of China and the four Southeast Asian countries, the global shipment of this album has exceeded 15 million!
In contrast, the movie "Titanic" is a breakthrough. It has been on the market in the United States for a month and a half, and it has been successfully transferred to long-term screenings. Now, this movie has been released in major box office markets around the world. In just two to three weeks, the global box office has reached more than 1.3 billion U.S. dollars. Now, the shock he has brought to global movie viewers and practitioners in the global film industry is that no matter how big the book is, it will not be too much, and China's The film market, as well as Chinese movie audiences, are of course also part of it.
You know, this is the world's first movie with a box office of more than one billion US dollars!
Even Chinese people have a wonderful feeling of "witnessing history and witnessing miracles"!
However, although there is a certain degree of "Chinese color" in this movie, the soundtrack and theme song singers are all Chinese, but for Chinese people, the "sense of participation" in this movie is still limited .
But Liao Liao's album is completely different.
Although six of the ten songs are English songs, to be honest, even many die-hard Liao Liao fans, if they hadn’t had a certain degree of acceptance of English songs before, then they might not be able to accept them immediately. And fell in love with these six songs, but even so, Li Qian and Liao Liao are both so popular, and the media is so hyped, so everyone knows that this album is actually of absolutely pure Chinese blood——China Songs written by people, sung by Chinese!
And it is such a pure-blooded "Made in China", in the Chinese, or the global market where Chinese culture has always been weak, it has only been on the market for less than two weeks, and it has won an astonishing score of 15 million copies worldwide. There are more than 11 million copies, which are provided by European and American markets!
This is of course a super refreshing feeling that is hard to find in the world!
So, without even thinking about it, from the domestic media, to the Internet, from ordinary fans to countless professional musicians, after learning the sales data of the album "My Heart Is Eternal", once again a collective climax up!
And even for the original competitors, when Liao Liao has gone global and achieved such a historic astonishing sales volume for the Chinese in the global market, the original jealousy in many people's hearts also dissipated a lot invisibly .
The reason is simple: people have already reached that point, they are unattainable, no matter how jealous, it doesn't make much sense anymore!
At this time, for Sony Records, especially for Kazuichi Watanabe and Mie Fujiwara, perhaps the state of mind should be the most complicated among musicians currently active in China.
Because, when they were still thinking about making a Chinese album for Fujiwara Mie, hoping to use Japanese pop culture to squeeze the Chinese music market with a flattering attitude, there was such a Chinese singer who had already used a The English album, which contains four Chinese songs, won the second place in the weekly chart of domestic music album sales in Japan!
