Chapter 192 Golden record?No, we're aiming for a platinum record
"How much? Do you think it will be difficult to sell a record that I personally record?"
Wang Lei raised his eyebrows and was so frightened that the other end of the phone almost suffocated on the spot.
"How is that possible? Boss, your record will definitely sell 50 copies. No, it will definitely sell 100 million copies."
"That's pretty much it, so go ahead and do it."
Listening to the busy signal on the phone, the president of Three Stone Records wiped away a cold sweat.
Although Mr. Xiao Wang is not very old, he puts great pressure on him.
He immediately summoned all senior executives for a meeting.
Upon hearing the task amount of 100 million, his men all whined.
Many people are still blaming the two gold medal composers and producers:
"Now you are happy. Among the male singers with sales of 100 million, I am afraid that only Wang Jie and Zhou Huajian, who is gaining momentum, can do it."
Wang Jie was "No. 1 in the Mandarin music scene" before the singer Zhang. His first solo album in 87 sold 1800 million copies in Asia!
He has been very productive this year. He released a Mandarin album and a Cantonese album in January and May respectively. The sales of both albums exceeded one million.
And everyone has heard that Wang Jie plans to release a new Mandarin album this month, which is already being preheated.
If the boss's album is released now, he will undoubtedly collide directly with Wang Jie!
In the late 80s and early 90s, Wang Jie was the one who defeated the Four Heavenly Kings.
The two teachers didn't say anything, and they felt a little unsure. When they were at PolyGram, they composed songs for many million-selling songs.
But after all, Wang Lei is not a professional singer. If he competes with the king Wang Jie on the same stage, he will definitely lose miserably.
The president had no intention of continuing to blame the two teachers. He felt that this was a test from the big boss. As long as the task was exceeded, his position would become more stable.
“Let’s not talk nonsense. It is precisely because the goal is difficult to achieve that we must go all out.
This is a rare opportunity to flatter the big boss. Our performance this year is all based on his thoughts, so you don’t need me to say more.
Three cobblers are worth one Zhuge Liang, and those who have ideas can speak freely. "
Someone suggested:
"We are looking for beautiful women and handsome men to shoot two music videos for the title songs. The plot and emotion must match the theme."
"This is a good suggestion. Let's just ask Gigi Lai, who has become popular recently, to be the female lead in the music video. As for the male lead, no matter how popular she is, it will be him!"
It's not the president of Three Stone Records who is asking for help. He is now holding a Shangfang sword. Not to mention Lai Ming and Gigi Gigi, no matter how big a star is, they have to give the big boss some face.
"Our promotional advertising must also keep up. We must discuss it with TVB and carry out overwhelming advertising to further expand the influence of First Affection."
What does it mean to be highly praised? TV stations, radio stations, newspapers and periodicals all praise you even if you are not a king, you can become a king.
It's not like everyone has done this kind of thing before. Now that the target is a big boss, there is no psychological burden of funding.
People kept putting forward their own suggestions, which were unanimously adopted.
It can be said that the entire record company tried its best to make No. [-] Affection a hit.
The president was very satisfied with how active everyone was working together. He announced:
"Okay, let's proceed as discussed today. If there are no objections, the meeting can be dismissed today."
Before I knew it, the sky outside had darkened.
"Wait a minute, President, I have an idea that I have to tell you."
The composer, who had been silent until now, raised his hand.
"Teacher, just tell me what you think. When it comes to understanding this album, no one can surpass you."
Everyone looked at him, but the composition teacher became quiet.
He seemed hesitant to speak, and seeing that everyone was losing their patience, he had no choice but to say to the waiter on the side:
"Take it out for everyone to enjoy together."
Soon Wang Lei's version of "Descendants of the Dragon" sounded in the conference room.
At first, everyone was a little confused as to why this song was played here.
Those present were all industry insiders, so they naturally heard some details.
The breathtaking atmosphere and some "techniques" of this song are similar to the two songs of Big Boss.
If you don't compare them together, you really can't hear them.
The president said in shock:
"You two, where did this song come from? Isn't it also adapted by the boss?"
Everyone couldn't help but cast questioning glances at the two of them.
"You heard it right. This song is indeed a song that the boss sang at the Spring Festival Gala in Mainland China. What you don't know is that this song was very popular in the Mainland at that time and its popularity was surprisingly high. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a household name.
The reason why Hong Kong City doesn’t know about this song is that, as far as I know, the Wang Group deliberately blocked the news. "
The president immediately realized the point:
"You mean, the boss has a very high popularity base in the mainland?"
"Yes, and Sanshi Technology Group is already the leading high-tech company in the mainland. We don't even need to do more publicity. Sooner or later, the people in the mainland will guess that these two songs were written by the boss!"
Everyone present realized that this was a big bug!
Big Boss only said that he should not be revealed as the original singer of the two songs during promotions, but he did not say that the audience should not be allowed to guess who the original singer was.
As long as they don't admit it publicly, the public can guess whatever they want.
Some people are still a little hesitant:
"But... piracy is rampant in the Mainland, so we may not have to wait in vain."
“This may trouble Sanshi Technology’s legal department, they are not vegetarians.
Besides, if there are people who buy pirated copies, there must be people who buy genuine ones. We have to believe that the big boss has such a charming personality. "
The president waved his hand and decided:
"After the mv shooting was completed, 10 copies were immediately produced and sent to the mainland."
With his order, all departments began to operate at full capacity.
The record company holding Shang Fang's sword has received full cooperation from TVB.
After receiving the notification from above, both Lai Lai and Gigi Lai looked puzzled. What kind of album by a superstar would require a big name like them to shoot the music video?
Music videos usually give debut artists a chance to show their faces, so asking them to shoot them is completely overqualified.
However, the company's orders cannot be violated. They could only spare three days from their busy schedule to shoot the music video.
When she arrived at the scene, Gigi knew that she was needed to shoot the music video for the album First Affection.
"Oh my god, I love these two songs very much. It's an honor for me to be the female lead in the MVs of these two songs."
It would be suitable for the record company to choose Liming as the male lead. Liming has a good family background, so it would be suitable for him to play the role of an affectionate man.
Seeing that the popularity of the song remained high, he even thought of singing covers of two songs.
