Chapter 185: Like entering a deserted land, easily taking the first place on the new song list
Many music companies have made predictions about this, believing that the sales data of Lu Bai's new album will be difficult to break through the 100,000 mark.
However, even such an achievement is already a quite remarkable achievement for a person from the Dragon Kingdom.
While these predictions displease some, there's nothing they can do about it.
After all, Lu Bai has accumulated a certain fan base in Europe and the United States. This is a fact that cannot be ignored.
On the Internet in Europe and the United States, discussions about Lu Bai have exploded.
Some people have high expectations for him, thinking that he can inject new vitality into the European and American music scene;
Some people were dismissive of him, questioning how a man from the Dragon Kingdom could make a name for himself in the European and American music scene that they were proud of.
Of course, there are more netizens who are just joining in the fun. They don't care about Lu Bai's nationality, as long as the song is good, it is enough.
With the strong financial support of Penguin, the news of the release of Lu Bai's new single quickly swept across Europe and the United States, arousing widespread attention and heated discussion.
In Shencheng, inside the Penguin Music headquarters, Liu Ming stared closely at the various data on the computer screen, a smile quietly appearing on the corner of his mouth. He is happy to see the hustle and bustle on the Internet. The hot discussions, debates, and even abuses seem to be cheering for the upcoming album release.
He is looking forward to the wonderful expressions of those who have been proud and prejudiced when the album is officially released.
After thinking for a moment, Liu Ming sent a message to Lu Bai, telling him that the single would be released at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, which is exactly 8 o'clock in the evening US time.
His heart was full of anticipation, as if he had already foreseen the grand occasion of that moment.
After receiving the news, Lu Bai raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and his eyes shone with confidence and expectation. He also has high hopes for this album.
"Which beauty did you chat with so happily?" Bai Lu joked, her slender legs lightly resting on Lu Bai's legs with a naughty smile on her face.
"A beautiful beauty." Lu Bai responded casually, with a hint of teasing in his eyes.
Bai Lu raised her eyebrows pretending to be angry: "Do you want to change your girlfriend?"
Lu Bai smiled and gently rubbed Bailu's white and tender feet: "Who told you to talk nonsense first?"
"Hmph! I'll tell Auntie later that you bullied me!" Bai Lu said coquettishly.
"I was wrong, I was wrong." Lu Bai immediately begged for mercy, making Bai Lu giggle.
"Okay, I'm teasing you." Bai Lu turned over and hugged Lu Bai's waist, and asked curiously: "Then do you have anything happy to share with me?"
"It's actually not a big deal."
Lu Bai shrugged and said easily: "I just released a new album in Europe and the United States."
???
Bai Lu's eyes widened, how could this album be accidentally done?
The live broadcast room exploded instantly.
"Oh my god! Lu Bai actually released an album in Europe and the United States?"
"I have to pay attention to this quickly!"
"Lu Shen is so awesome!"
"But will European and American audiences pay the bill?"
"It's better not to have high expectations."
The news that Lu Bai was releasing an album in Europe and the United States instantly spread throughout the Internet.
There are heated discussions on Douyin, Tieba, Weibo, and major social platforms.
Regarding Lu Bai going overseas to release an album, everyone has mixed reviews.
In fact, there are no examples of Chinese singers releasing albums in Europe and the United States before.
It's just a pity that the sales data of Chinese singers in Europe and the United States are simply appalling.
So far, Chinese singers have basically bid farewell to the European and American markets.
Therefore, everyone is basically pessimistic about Lu Bai's album release in Europe and the United States.
Although Lu Bai is very famous in the Dragon Kingdom, he is also somewhat famous in Europe and the United States.
But singles and albums simply cannot be confused.
That’s real financial support!
How many people can support Lu Bai?
But they all admired Lu Bai's courage.
You are really not afraid of embarrassment!
And other domestic music platforms and companies.
At this moment, the industry also heard news that Penguin Music has entered overseas markets.
This move caused an uproar among music companies, who generally believed that Penguin Music was simply crazy this time.
"They actually invested five million US dollars in Lu Bai?"
"It's crazy! Liu Ming has become too courageous after taking office!"
"The European and American markets are highly competitive. There are kings and queens emerging one after another. How can Lu Bai stand out?"
"I have a feeling that Liu Ming's term as president of Penguin Music will be very short."
"If this money is invested in the domestic market, Lu Bai's status may be improved."
"Penguin Music really miscalculated this time. I heard that European and American listeners have begun to boycott Lu Bai spontaneously."
“Isn’t there anyone who supports Lu Bai?”
"Would you rather believe that Lu Bai's album will be a hit, or would you rather believe that I am Qin Shihuang?" Time is passing.
Whether it is Long Country or Europe and the United States, the popularity of Lu Bai's new album is still rising.
The eyes of the world were once again focused on Lu Bai.
……
The next day, early morning.
Bai Lu got up early. She was so nervous that she couldn't sleep.
After all, this is the first time Lu Bai has released a single in Europe and the United States, and she will always care about it.
But that guy Lu Bai was still sleeping soundly, without any trace of nervousness.
She kicked Lu Bai and said, "It's almost eight o'clock, why don't you get up and take a look?"
Lu Bai rubbed his sleepy eyes and asked: "What are you looking at?"
Bai Lu tilted her head and asked: "Isn't the new album released today?"
Lu Bai shook his head and said: "Today we released the title song first to hit the charts, the album did not hit the charts that quickly."
"That's pretty much it. If the title song doesn't sell well, the album's performance won't be very good either."
Although Bai Lu is not a singer, the title song can largely reflect the sales of the album.
Lu Bai took Bai Lu into his arms and said, "Don't worry, every song on that album is of the quality of the title song, don't worry."
"Really?"
"Really. But I think you should pay more attention to my backup mobile phone."
……
When the eight o'clock bell rang on time.
News of Lu Bai's new single quickly swept the entire American Internet.
