"I have become a pioneer in sales volume?!"
Looking at the document in front of him with a sales volume of 880,000, Chen Chen's expression was as weird as any. His first reaction was that Black Cat was trying to save face. Directly launched an army of digital androids.
The main reason is that the 880,000 yuan on the first day is just the data compiled by Black Cat’s channel. The sales volume of offline stores across South Korea has not yet been calculated. If it is really calculated.
Don't make statistics, stop talking nonsense, this is not water injection, what is this? !
This is not the era of big water injections in three or four years. The first-day sales volume often starts at six or seven hundred thousand, and the time when the final sales volume does not reach more than one million and I am embarrassed to say that I am a first-tier group has not yet come. !
At this time, the overall environment in the Korean entertainment industry was pretty good. Although everyone would still pour some water on it sometimes, it wouldn't go too far. In Chen Chen's opinion, the results in front of him were obviously too much.
“This sales volume.”
Chen Chen opened his mouth, but he still didn’t feel embarrassed to say what he was thinking.
"This is the sales volume of the three albums combined. Overseas also contributed a lot. Of course, the domestic contribution is the largest." Ma Xiaohei couldn't understand what Chen Chen was nervous about, "You There are "Lonely Brave Man" and "Youth and Promise". You have written several very powerful Chinese songs for others. You are also the only young singer in China to have consecutively topped the B-chart. With your fame, the three songs together only cost more than 800,000. It's very low. In our opinion, it's not worthy of your popularity."
"If you know what the album sales figures are, you will know that it is not low at all." Chen Chen smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Coupled with the sales from offline stores in South Korea, today's total sales are probably close to one million, which is a bit exaggerated."
"It's already over one million." Ma Xiaohei's tone was calm, and you could even hear a bit of his dissatisfaction. "Based on the information sent by the last statistics before the stores closed, we can't stop it at 150,000." "
"Your album is sold cheaply in mainland China. If you produce it locally and sell it through our channels, the overall price will be lowered even more."
"Even though we have only placed over 800,000 orders on the first day, we still have to work harder." Ma Xiaohei sighed, not knowing at all how abhorrent his words were.
“However, although there is a big gap in sales between the two places, people’s preferences are almost the same.” Ma Xiaohei added: “Just as we expected, Laocheng Road accounted for 95% of In terms of sales, the remaining ones are almost all the comprehensive albums, and not many people like those animated villains. "
"In other words, "Old Town Road" can get the first-day 100 by itself. That’s an exaggerated achievement.” Chen Chen touched his chin and asked, “Has the marketing draft been written?”
Since the sales volume is not water injection, Chen Chen feels more at peace in his heart and can just do whatever he wants next.
"It has been prepared for a long time. Five minutes after we announce the sales together, a large number of manuscripts will be sent out through the marketing account." Ma Xiaohei explained casually, "The songs are excellent, the album is of high quality, everyone I have been waiting for this album for a long time, so it has strong explosiveness. These will be mentioned, but the main marketing is still the strong consumption power of mainland China and the excellent output ability of our channel.”
“I can also mention it deliberately. My album is sold cheaply, and I follow the route of small profits but quick turnover." Chen Chen suggested: "Things with only advantages and no disadvantages are always unreal in people's eyes, but one or two unimportant disadvantages can be eliminated. The advantages make it more realistic."
"Understood, I will ask someone to add a few announcements."
Ma Xiaohei made an OK gesture with his left hand and was already operating the phone with his right hand. .
After the operation was completed, Ma Xiaohei relaxed completely.
“Let’s go downstairs and have something to drink.”
……
When the food and drinks were served, various sales charts in South Korea revealed the number of Chen Chen’s albums Specific sales quantity.
Large difference, medium difference, small difference, there is no consistent data anyway, and it is even different from the data compiled by Black Cat itself.
This is an extremely normal phenomenon, because each list is calculated differently.
The only thing that remained consistent was the exaggerated look of the South Koreans crawling all over the floor after being shocked. Chen Chen and Ma Xiaohei laughed so much that they drank several more drinks.
“But these picky South Koreans didn’t suspect that the sales were fake, which is quite surprising.” Ma Xiaohei raised his cup again.
"What a surprise." Chen Chen ran into him, "I have a very high status in the South Korean rice circle, and they cannot question it. If you really want to question me, then at least there must be someone Only those with high status should take the lead.”
“Awesome”
Ma Xiaohei gave a simple compliment without any further explanation. It was an obvious compliment.
“Speaking of which, do you know about a platform called Yiyiyu?” Chen Chen took the initiative to find a topic to talk about. “They started doing the same thing as us last year, so you can pay attention.”< br>
“Why should we care?” Ma Xiaohei sneered, “We After doing this, all companies similar to ours will die! No matter how big they are in China, they can still be bigger than us? Just buy them after they are squeezed out!"
"..."
Chen Chen was speechless. Such overbearing and exaggerated words were something he envied.
"That's right." Chen Chen nodded along with his intention, "They don't have the qualifications to make it big."
"You're right, no one can make this kind of business big, except C Headquarters!" Ma Xiaohei Suddenly he became excited, "You are really a genius! It's so cool to be able to develop as a Chinese company in the fierce South Korean entertainment industry!"
Chen Chen didn't understand why Ma Xiaohei changed. He was excited, but this did not prevent him from making a good posture and continuing to listen to this man who became more talkative after drinking.
The two of them look at things from different angles, and it would be a broadening of their horizons to know more about them.
“It is much more difficult for our country to enter than other countries, but it is not difficult to get out.” Ma Xiaohei talked endlessly about everything he saw from his own perspective, “If C This department can bring the manufacturing of Korean entertainment industry derivative products to China, and then sell them domestically to Korean entertainment industry fans around the world. For us, this thing has changed from import to export.”
"In other words, we have suddenly changed from being cut leeks to people wielding scythes. The higher authorities will definitely not stop this."
"It has not been done before because we can't find a suitable agent. , After all, people may not be willing to ask South Koreans to do such a thing, and even if others are willing, the top may not let us do it.”
“But you are different. C Headquarters is a Chinese enterprise. , if you do this, there will be no internal resistance."
"As for the resistance on the South Korean side, there is no resistance here. Most of them are businessmen who jump around for benefits. Who can bring them. They will rely on whoever gets more benefits.”
“And many of their publishers are overseas companies. Now it is extremely normal for them to switch to us where they can get more benefits, and no one will think so. Inconvenient.”
"You may want to ask, why don't we do this kind of thing ourselves? It seems that any Chinese company can take on the work that C headquarters will be responsible for."
"It's easy to think. , That’s not the case at all!”
“The prerequisite for success is that you have to go deep into the Korean entertainment industry, otherwise you will not be qualified to talk to them, no matter how big the company is.”
“ This qualification is very restrictive. The little guys can chat with the little guys, and the big capital is watching from the outside, and they are not allowed to end.”
“You must know that we are not just one big company in the world, there are many such companies. They exist in South Korea, Sakura Country, and the United States. ""Therefore, the entertainment industry is backed by chaebol capital, and the game inside is essentially a proxy war. We want to take a bite of the Korean entertainment industry. You have to have an agent in it.”
“We can directly acquire South Korean companies to gain admission, but there are only a few that are attractive to us, and we don’t want to touch the others.”
“Although we feel that It’s difficult, but we still choose to give it a try. ”
“What’s the result?”
“Ali took 4% of the stupid company and stopped. Penguin was ruthless and took more than ten points of the crooked chicken, but he still stopped. , others have no intention of actually giving it to you.”
"OK, now we know that we are in the wrong direction. The agent war is not that simple."
"But we cannot quickly support an agent who has taken root in the South Korean entertainment industry, and we do not have the patience to do it." It takes many years to build a company from scratch and wait for it to grow to the point where it is qualified to talk to big companies in the industry.”
“Especially during this period, we have to keep protecting it from dying and preventing it from dying. Being squeezed to death by peers, and at the same time We can't let it become less popular in the circle. Then when we can take action, we have to make sure we hit the mark and complete the task we want to complete 100%."
"It's too difficult and the cost is too high. There are enough risks on the road for us to give up this idea.”
“If you look around you, you will find that China Entertainment Company, which has penetrated into the Korean entertainment industry and has a firm foothold in the business, is the C headquarters. ”
"So we are overjoyed by your appearance and think you are our perfect agent."
"Now we will first get artist albums, peripherals and other products, and then slowly control the entertainment company, and then invade their film and television foundation, and then expanded to their entire entertainment industry." Ma Xiaohei showed the cunning and cruelty of the black cat, "Drink their blood, eat their flesh, and finally stand on top of their heads to see if there is a chance to break out of the entertainment industry! Check out other industries!”
“Once a channel is established, it can’t be wasted, right? A channel should be accessible in both directions.”
“Of course, It will take a long time to do it, but we are very confident in the C department and feel that it can continue to develop under your care."
"You don't have to worry about the things you do with us. Damage to the image of C Headquarters." Ma Xiaohei patted Chen Chen on the shoulder, "'After entering the customs, there will be a great scholar to argue for me.' You must know what this means when we finish it. Department C has done good things because those who have benefited from us will defend themselves in this way.”
"..."
"..."
Only at this moment did Chen Chen understand what the other party wanted to do. He also understood that his vision was still too narrow in front of a real big company. At the same time, he also knew that he What kind of battle situation did I get myself into when I signed the contract that I couldn't make any more money a few days ago?
But Chen Chen didn’t feel nervous or scared. Instead, he found it quite exciting to do this. He was willing to implement this plan that was several times more terrifying than Netflix’s invasion of South Korea.
"So I am your agent for Alibaba in the Korean entertainment industry. If I have the opportunity to explore outside the industry in the future, I will be your agent in more industries, right?" Chen Chen squinted his eyes and smiled. I woke up and said, "It feels pretty good."
"Yes, we will support you unconditionally." Ma Xiaohei added, "Of course, so does a certain person. They take more shares of C headquarters. It would be abnormal not to get involved when seeing this kind of thing. "
"Oh, it would be great if we met you first, grandma!" Ma Xiaohei felt depressed and couldn't help but complain, "We have to interfere with what we have worked so hard for. It feels so uncomfortable to be in conflict with each other, but we will never conflict with you, we can only cooperate!"
"It will definitely be a win-win situation for you two, don't worry," Chen Chen comforted." The order of some things is so strange. Without a certain sound, there would be no me, and you would not have a qualified agent."
"Okay" Ma Xiaohei gathered his emotions and started again. He raised his head and said, "I told you a lot today. I hope I didn't scare you."
"Do you think I look scared?" Chen Chen spread his hands and leaned back towards him. prove.
"You are indeed a young hero." Ma Xiaohei nodded, then stood up and said goodbye, "I will go back today and see you at the press conference in two days."
"Okay, see you later."
Chen Chen sent him two steps away, but not far.
Go back to your seat and sit for a while. Chen Chen wants to digest what he heard today and regain his mood.
Chen Chen thought it was because the other person had loosened his mouth after drinking, but he didn't expect that he said it to him on purpose.
Think about it, how can such a big shot who comes out to discuss business be a character who can do it with just two pounds? Even two pounds may not be enough.
Haha, why do you feel like you are still so young after living for so long?
Chen Chen smiled and shook his head, thinking it was because he had never stood at such a high place before.
……
……
Album No. 1 went on sale and sold millions of copies on the first day.
On the 2nd, there was a lot of discussion on the entire Internet, and the popularity increased exponentially, but the sales data given on the second day were lower, at least compared to the first day.
No. 3 was supposed to be discussing the sudden drop in sales of No. 2, but a press conference in the C headquarters made everyone hold back their saliva.
Black Cat’s acquisition of five shares of C Division for US$23 million has become the only hot topic in South Korea. Everyone is surprised by Black Cat’s generosity, and they are also surprised that C Division has become so valuable at some point. .
……
"Why are you here?" When he returned home, Chen Chen saw Pei Zhuxuan waiting for him in the living room. He kicked off his shoes and happily ran over to hug her. "Tomorrow is the concert, so I won't stay with my teammates today." He came to my place together and deserves a fight!"
"The closer I get to the big scene, the more I miss my dear boyfriend. What can I do?" Pei Zhuxuan pouted.
"What about your teammates?" Chen Chen joked: "Are they also looking for your dear boyfriend?"
"They don't have boyfriends!" Pei Zhuxuan said halfway. Suddenly found that he had been spared, so he angrily gave Chen Chen punched, "Why are they coming to you?! Do you want to be beaten?!"
"You're kidding, they definitely won't come." Chen Chen gently stroked her hair, "You found out Are you worried after I turned off my phone?”
"Hehe~" Pei Zhuhyun raised her head naively, as if she wanted to boast, "I think we still have to have this kind of tacit understanding, right?"
