My singer girlfriend is super fierce.
Chapter 769
"Contemporary Pop" is a famous music radio station in California.
This radio station was founded in 1996. It was originally a small radio station serving two communities. After more than 20 years of development, its coverage has now expanded to several areas such as California, Arizona, and Nevada. It is one of the most well-known and influential radio stations.
According to a survey, 74% of Americans listen to the radio every day, which is inseparable from the local car usage. Many listeners also like to request songs on the radio.
Harold is the host of "Contemporary Pop" radio station. He has been doing this job for more than ten years. His humorous and witty hosting style, which can talk about everything without losing some sense, has always been very popular with the audience.
After playing "Baby" requested by a female audience, Harold took off his headphones and shouted to the assistant behind him.
"Again!"
"Who can tell me what song "Yellow" is? Ruth, Daisy, Karina... 5 men have already requested this song for their mates!"
The busy assistant also shouted: "Looking for it, we can't find this song in our music library!"
Harold continued: "Change it! What the hell is "Numb"!?"
"This song has been requested 4 times!"
"Shit! Why are all the songs I haven't heard of?"
"The singer's name is... Jackson Ye? Who the hell is this? You better find him immediately!"
"Do we have the copyright to play these songs!?"
After more than a minute, someone finally answered the question.
"Found it!"
The assistant walked up quickly and said excitedly: "This Jackson Ye is a singer from China. Those two songs are from his new album, which was just released yesterday and allowed to be played on the radio."
Chinese singer?
Harold was stunned. He didn't expect this answer at all.
"There is more." The assistant said with a strange look, "We also know this Jackson Ye..."
"'Stars' is his work, and he is now a singer under Universal Music."
"Stars"?
Harold reacted immediately after hearing this familiar name.
The highest record of this song on the B chart is the top 30, which is considered a big hit. Some time ago, many viewers called the radio station to request this song.
However, the radio station needs copyright to play songs. At that time, Ye Zhiqiu had not signed a contract with Universal Music, and the radio station didn't know who to pay the copyright fee.
Because so many people requested this song but it was never played, the "Contemporary Pop" radio station was complained several times, so Harold was impressed by the Chinese singer with a difficult name.
I didn't expect that he would officially release an English album, and the new song seemed to be very popular, so Harold became interested all of a sudden.
"Play the next song 'Yellow'!"
After the song was played, the song of "Yellow" soon sounded in the studio.
【Look at the stars
Look up at the stars
Look how they shine for you
And everything you do
Yeah, they were all Yellow...
But so shy and timid...】
The unique voice spread as if he was slowly telling a story to his beloved. The studio fell into silence. All the staff stopped what they were doing and listened quietly.
After the song ended, Harold took a deep breath and felt like swearing.
Shit! This song is so fucking beautiful!
How did you say that... It feels like first love!
Although his "first love" was the 36D science teacher in high school, it did not affect his understanding of the mood of the song.
"OK, this song is from Anthony to Ms. Karina. Next, we..."
Harold habitually said the script, and noticed that the assistant beside him was pointing at the work screen and hinting something to him crazily. He glanced over and was stunned.
In just a few minutes, the number of incoming calls surged, and most of them specifically requested the song "Yellow"!
It seems that the song just played left many listeners wanting more.
However, radio stations generally do not play the same song continuously in a short period of time. Harold took a quick look and quickly locked on the next target.
It was also the song of this "Jackson Ye" - "Numb"!
Five minutes later, Harold and the radio staff in the studio were shocked again., and felt a little incredible.
Although both are rock songs, "Numb" and "Yellow" are two songs with completely different styles.
If "Yellow" expresses the confession of a young man to his beloved, "Numb" gives people the feeling of an adult's unyielding cry for the difficulties encountered in life.
For Harold, he actually prefers "Numb". The tearing singing voice makes people's adrenaline soar.
There is no doubt that both songs are excellent, which can be seen from the surge in calls for "Numb".
It is hard to imagine that this is a work from the same singer, and this singer is from the mysterious China.
In the past, when it comes to China, Harold's first impression is "Kung Fu" and Jackie Chan. Now this "Jackson Ye" has refreshed his impression.
At this time, Harold was completely interested, and the next song he requested was "Believer" without hesitation.
Then, everyone in the studio was shocked again.
On the first day of the release of the album "Jackson Ye", the Chinese and American markets showed a "polarization" phenomenon.
The sales volume in the Chinese market exceeded 500,000 copies on the first day, but the American market had a mediocre response. According to the data returned online and offline, there were less than 30,000 copies.
Although it was expected that it would not be easy at the beginning, Universal Music was also a little unsure.
With the number of fans of Ye Zhiqiu, the sales volume in China was normal, but in the United States, which was basically a new market environment, no one knew what kind of results could be achieved.
For the album "Jackson Ye", Universal Music expected that two of the three songs could enter the top 100 of the B list to pass, and one song could enter the top 50 to be considered a success.
However, what Universal did not expect was that the surprise came so suddenly.
On the afternoon of June 11, the real-time updated digital album sales showed a small increase, and then the speed of the increase became faster and faster...
On June 12, the Billboard list was updated.
All three new songs of "Jackson Ye" were in the top 100!
