Huayu 1992, my entertainment era

Chapter 35: Hot sale across the country, with impressive sales results

At 8 o'clock in the evening on October 9th, a new episode of "A Thousand Colors" was broadcast on Pearl River Channel.

After this episode of "A Thousand Colors" was broadcast, Zhou Ziheng and Yang Yuying experienced a surge in popularity.

One of them is handsome and has a widely known singing voice, while the other is well-behaved and cute with a sweet singing voice.

After this episode of "A Thousand Colors" was broadcast, many people quickly remembered their faces.

Pacific and New Era also took advantage of this favorable situation and quickly began to promote "Golden Boy and Jade Girl" on a large scale.

The two were arranged to appear on the covers of many magazines in Guangdong Province to increase their popularity.

The subsequent developments have indeed fulfilled the wishes of Pacific and New Era.

With the massive publicity in magazines, newspapers and on television, the golden boy and the jade girl became extremely popular and quickly became the focus of people's discussion.

Thanks to "A Thousand Colors".

After the broadcast of "A Thousand Colors", Zhou Ziheng finally felt a little bit like a big star in his life.

He lives on Yuehua Road in Yuexiu District.

Before, even if his tapes sold very well, his neighbors next door would sing a few lines.

But when Zhou Ziheng went out, he looked no different from before, and no one recognized him as the singer on this tape.

Until "A Thousand Colors" was broadcast.

When he came down to buy rice noodles, the boss recognized him and refused to take his money. He even asked for his autograph.

The neighbors around the rental house also knew that a new singer had moved in, the one who sang "Wandering Song".

People often come to his door and hang around.

Whenever he goes out, everyone starts to stare at him.

……

Besides the good news that he finally had some celebrity-like status.

There was another happy event that made Zhou Ziheng very happy.

October 15th.

The ordering conference jointly organized by the four major record companies, Pacific, New Era, China Record Guangzhou Branch and White Swan, has finally begun.

The location of this order conference was chosen as Dongshan Hotel.

Orderers from all over the world gathered together and began to view the tapes produced by the four major record companies during this period, selecting excellent works and ordering them back to their own provinces for distribution.

At this ordering conference, apart from a few Hong Kong and Taiwan singers, Zhou Ziheng and Yang Yuying became the biggest winners.

Zhou Ziheng is the worst.

At this winter ordering conference, Zhou Ziheng's "Wandering Song" was favored by orderers from all over the country because of its simple song, beautiful melody, and it broke the order record for original albums by mainland singers in Guangdong Province.

With an order volume of 410,000 pieces, it ranked second in the order list of this order fair.

Second only to Andy Lau's "Thank You For Your Love".

The first time he logged into the ordering meeting, he received an order quantity of 410,000.

And this was just the first batch of orders. This terrifying data directly shocked Pacific Records and major record companies in Guangdong Province.

At the same time, Zhou Ziheng once again became the focus of heated media discussion.

Yangcheng Evening News: "At the just concluded winter audio-visual ordering conference, Pacific's Zhou Ziheng and New Era's Yang Yuying broke records, winning 410,000 and 320,000 copies respectively."

Southern Daily: "The golden boy and girl showed their power and beat many Hong Kong and Taiwan singers at the audio and video tape ordering conference, becoming the second and fifth on the ordering list of this winter ordering conference."

Youth: "Handsome men and beautiful women, golden boys and jade girls became the biggest winners of the order fair."

Reports came out one after another.

With the end of the ordering conference, Zhou Ziheng and Yang Yuying became the most popular singing stars in Guangdong Province.

The two people's appearance fee changes every day.

By the end of October, Zhou Ziheng's appearance fee exceeded 10,000, making him one of the people with the highest appearance fees in Guangdong Province.

And this increase has not stopped yet.

Because, with the end of the ordering conference, Pacific stepped up the printing of tapes.

Truckloads of tapes were shipped to various locations and began to sell well in other provinces.

If the people of Guangdong during this period yearned for Hong Kong and regarded the fashions in Hong Kong as the fashions in Hong Kong, then the people of other provinces in the mainland yearned for Guangdong and regarded the fashions in Guangdong as the fashions in Guangdong.

Any songs or tapes that are popular in the Pearl River Delta region can be introduced to other provinces.

There will definitely be no problem selling it.

Just like the song tapes from Hong Kong were introduced to the Pearl River Delta region and they sold well.

At this time, Zhou Ziheng's "Wandering Song" is like this.

When this tape was introduced to other provinces, it was marketed solely on the gimmick of being the most popular tape in the Pearl River Delta region this year.

This tape was immediately snapped up in various provinces.

In less than half a month, the first batch of goods ordered by those merchants were all sold out.

Seeing that the tape was selling so well, the orderers dared not hesitate and immediately called Pacific and started placing additional orders.

Compared with the first batch of orders at the order meeting.

The second batch of orders is larger.

The number of tickets in several provinces directly exceeded 600,000.

As a result, the order volume for the tape "Wandering Song" directly reached more than 1.3 million copies.

In less than three months, sales exceeded one million.

This horrific sales volume drove Pacific Music crazy.

In the past, Pacific had such best-selling tapes.

But those were basically tapes of singers from Hong Kong and Taiwan.

This time, Zhou Ziheng is a mainland singer.

Although Zhou Ziheng and Pacific are only partners.

But this is still more profitable than importing tapes from Hong Kong and Taiwan!

You should know that for Hong Kong and Taiwan singers' tapes, in addition to paying agency fees, they also have to pay commissions.

In comparison, Zhou Ziheng made a lot of money from this tape.

Having made so much money, Pacific naturally doesn't want to let go of Zhou Ziheng, this cash cow.

In order to prevent Zhou Ziheng from being poached by other record companies, Liu Zhiwen quickly contacted Zhou Ziheng.

He was re-signed with a contract to release the next tape.

This time, Pacific took the initiative to give up some of its interests and increased Zhou Ziheng's share to 2.5%.

Zhou Ziheng naturally accepted this.

He had no plans to change jobs, and Pacific's willingness to give up profits was a good thing for him.

……

It's November.

On the 3rd, Zhou Ziheng received another great news.

His first share of the tape revenue had arrived.

That is the sales share in Guangdong Province.

A total of 280,000.

As soon as he got the money, the first thing Zhou Ziheng did was to buy himself a car.

Then it’s time to pay back the money.

He called all the relatives in his hometown to whom he owed money and paid them back one by one.

After spending 70,000 yuan on the car and paying off another 70,000 yuan in debt, Zhou Ziheng had 140,000 yuan left.

In addition, he saved 100,000 yuan from commercial performances during this period.

He now has a savings of 240,000 yuan, which makes him considered a wealthy man.

However, Zhou Ziheng did not touch the money for the time being. He planned to wait until the subsequent share of the "Wandering Song" tape arrived before planning how to spend the money.
In addition, how to spend the money specifically also requires careful study.
