Huayu 1992, my entertainment era

Chapter 71 Zhou Ziheng VS Jacky Cheung

The popularity of "Pacific Rim" is visible to the naked eye.

After it was broadcast on CCTV's "Oriental Horizon Golden Melody Chart" and received strong support from major radio stations in Beijing and Shanghai.

Radio stations in other regions also realized the situation and began to actively increase the promotion of "Sad Pacific".

The same is true in Guangdong.

Dongguan Radio is Zhou Ziheng’s hometown radio station, and they give Zhou Ziheng the greatest support.

In addition to the news and information column, this radio station has other music-related columns, and the host simply plays "Sad Pacific" over and over again in a loop.

According to incomplete statistics, on the 3rd, Dongguan Radio played "Sad Pacific" a total of 25 times.

A Dongguan DJ Zhou Ziheng knew called him to complain, saying that he went to bed with "Sad Pacific" playing all the time.

In addition to Dongguan Radio, radio stations such as Sound of Music also made great efforts to promote "Sad Pacific".

At the beginning of the program, the radio DJ would say, "Have you listened to Sad Pacific? It's so beautiful. This song was written and composed by our Guangdong singer Zhou Ziheng..."

……

Radio stations across the country, as if they had received the same signal, all actively promoted "Sad Pacific" tacitly.

This intensity is almost unprecedented.

Under this promotion, May 5th.

"Broken Heart in the Pacific" defeated "Goodbye Kiss" for the first time and topped the Sound of Music's daily song request chart, becoming the champion song.

This caused cheers from the Guangdong media.

It also prompted orderers from all over the country to call Pacific to place their orders.

Again.

In the mainland, tapes do have a release date in stores.

But before that, the orderers had already taken action.

Whether it is Jacky Cheung’s "Goodbye Kiss" or Zhou Ziheng’s "Sad Pacific".

The sales competition between the two tapes had actually started a long time ago.

"Goodbye Kiss" has become extremely popular in Hong Kong, Taiwan and other places, and its sales have been very good.

Therefore, the order volume of this tape has been very high. Before May 1st, the order volume of this tape had exceeded one million.

That is why all the major record companies have retreated and dared not face it.

As for "Pacific Rim", the orders for it actually started on April 28th.

At that time, it was considered that Zhou Ziheng's tape would face the impact of a kiss goodbye.

Therefore, major orderers are hesitant and are reluctant to place large orders.

Until May 1, orders for this tape had reached 210,000.

This data is definitely very good compared to many other singers' data.

But for Zhou Ziheng, this result is definitely not ideal.

The total sales of the two tapes he had participated in before exceeded 1.5 million.

With such high data, the first batch of orders for new tapes was only 200,000, which is naturally not ideal.

Fortunately, after CCTV's "Eastern Horizon Golden Melody Chart" was broadcast on the 1st, and in the following days, major radio stations began to actively promote Zhou Ziheng.

This is what caused the ordering data to gradually improve.

To the fifth.

The total order volume of "Pacific Heartbreak" has reached 500,000 copies.

Although it is quite a difference compared to the current 1.3 million figures of "Goodbye Kiss".

However, it also successfully reassured Pacific, who had always been worried.

Everyone knows that the sales performance on the 6th will officially determine whether "Pacific Rim" can carve out a niche under the strong pressure of "Goodbye Kiss".

If, under the strong pressure of "Goodbye Kiss", the data of "Sad Pacific" can be stabilized to a certain extent, then it is obvious that those orderers who are still on the sidelines will definitely take action, and "Sad Pacific" will also usher in a new wave of orders.

However, if "Pacific Heartbreak" is one of those movies that has excellent on-demand data but poor tape sales.

There is no doubt that the orderers will not place orders, and the batches of goods previously ordered may face returns.

Therefore, everything depends on the sales of "Pacific Rim" on the 6th.

On May 6th, "Pacific Rim" was officially released nationwide.

Yes, available nationwide.

For famous singers, the ordering fair is no longer a rope that binds them. Because of their success and fame, singers like Zhou Ziheng are no longer suitable for ordering fairs.

As soon as the tapes were produced, orders came in.

At present, Zhou Ziheng has received orders for more than 500,000 tapes, not only from Guangdong, but from all over the country.

Large orderers from various provinces have placed orders for a certain quantity of goods to test the waters.

……

"It takes a thousand years to wait and wait again."

"I have no regrets waiting for a thousand years"

"Who said in your ears that your love for me will never change?"

In Beijing, Liu Qiangdong and his classmate Wu Cheng walked into the electronics mall.

At a TV sales counter not far away, a TV was playing The Legend of the New White Snake.

This TV series, which was introduced to the mainland in February, is really popular. Now in May, it is being rebroadcast for the second time and the ratings are still far ahead.

The songs in it are also popular all over the country and are one of the most popular songs during the Chinese New Year.

The two did not stay for long at the TV sales area, but went straight to the tape sales area not far away.

"How many do you plan to buy?"

While moving among the crowd, Wu Cheng asked Liu Qiangdong.

Liu Qiangdong touched the ten yuan in his bag.

“I’ll just buy one.”

He was born in the countryside and didn't have much money. The money for his college education was collected pennies by the villagers.

He wouldn't even have a tape recorder if a classmate hadn't bought a new stereo and sold him a second-hand tape recorder at a low price.

I don't plan to buy tapes either.

"Then I recommend you buy 'Goodbye Kiss', a tape by Jacky Cheung, one of the four kings of Hong Kong. It is very popular in China right now." Wu Cheng recommended.

"Let's take a look first!"

Liu Qiangdong has not made a decision.

He was a child from a poor family and it was impossible for him to buy tapes often.

Therefore, he wanted to buy a tape that was cost-effective, good-sounding, and could be listened to for a long time.

"It's your fault that you fell in love with me so easily"

"Let me unknowingly satisfy the vanity of being loved"

"It's all your fault for spoiling people."

“It’s a temptation”

……

“The past is gone like smoke”

"Disappearing before each other's eyes"

“We even said goodbye.”

……

The tape section of this electronics store is very large and is divided into the Hong Kong and Taiwan area and the mainland area.

Selling tapes from Hong Kong, Taiwan and the Mainland separately.

The two areas are not far apart, but they play different songs.

I've heard the song "Goodbye Kiss" by Liu Qiangdong from Hong Kong and Taiwan. Many of my classmates have been listening to it recently.

The song from the inner area was unfamiliar, but the sound was familiar.

It seems to be... Zhou Ziheng who sang "The Waves Remain".

Liu Qiangdong looked at the tape price signs in the two areas.

He walked towards the inner area without hesitation.

The ones in Hong Kong and Taiwan cost 15 yuan, while the ones in mainland China only cost 9.9 yuan.

For him, this is nothing to consider.

Moreover, he felt that compared to the song "Goodbye Kiss" which he was tired of listening to, the song being played in the inner area was more fresh to him.
