Chapter 393 Sudden Dominance!
In mid-October, a song called "carelesswhisper" airborne on the UK pop singles chart.
At the beginning, this song only ranked 68th, and Polygram UK also contributed part of the power.
But in the second week, "carelesswhisper" quickly climbed to the 43rd position, and the climbing speed was completely unexpected.
On Sunday, October 28th, the third week after "carelesswhisper" was on the list, it was directly sent to the ninth position outrageously, and it began to become popular.
And this female singer named Teresa Deng also became popular in the streets of Britain with this song.
Everyone is asking, who is this female singer who sings such brisk, bright, sad... and other emotional songs? Why have I never heard her songs before? Is she a newcomer to the music scene?
Seeing this achievement, PolyGram's people were pleasantly surprised.
Originally, it was only because of the joint recommendation of Xiangjiang Polygram and Formosa Polygram that they wanted to make a single for Teresa Deng, who was once popular all over Asia.
The song was written and composed by Teresa Deng herself, and then recorded by Polygram in a music studio in Tunisia.
Why was it recorded in Tunisia?
Because this woman named Teresa Deng happened to be filming a movie in Tunisia in October.
And this movie is the recently rumored treasure hunting action movie jointly created by Lucas and Spielberg.
Yes.
This Teresa Deng is naturally Deng Lijun.
Teresa Teng was a little impatient when people from PolyGram called her all the time to urge her to make a single.
In the past two or three months, she has lived without knowing how comfortable she is.
Apart from some scenes in filming, Teresa Teng spends most of her time listening to music and collecting folk songs.
In her spare time, she can sit on the street and listen to homeless singers for half a day, or listen to two concerts in one night, which greatly enriches her soul.
Only then did Deng Lijun realize that she couldn't do without songs at all, just like the little guy she dreams of most now.
Impatient with being urged, and Xiangjiang and Baodao kept calling, Deng Lijun simply assigned the task to Yin Jun and asked him to write a song for herself.
As a result, Yin Jun wrote her such a song "carelesswhisper".
Teresa Teng's English is not bad, and she can understand the meaning after reading the lyrics. Seeing that the man depicted in the song is so carefree, Teresa Teng blamed Yin Jun a lot.
"You little guy, how do you understand that love is so absurd and pessimistic? Isn't love beautiful? Also, explain to me why you write about a man who likes several women at the same time? Is that how you are? person?"
All right.
For such a song, Yin Jun had to explain it to Sister Tianhou, so he had to be careful.
Although Teresa Teng is 26 years old, she looks like a child compared to 20-year-old Le Yiling.
And it is precisely because she has such a pure heart that she can sing such beautiful songs-it is impossible for people with too complicated thoughts to perform beautiful music. This is why we see those musicians, after breaking away from music, , for the same reason as a fool and idiot.
Yin Jun likes Deng Lijun's character very much, and wants to let Tianhou sister add a brighter color to the world, so he dotes on her a little bit.
Yes.
In Yin Jun's view, he, a man in his thirties at heart, should take care of Deng Lijun who is older than him like he takes care of his younger sister.
Deng Lijun was not dissatisfied with Yin Jun's attitude of coaxing her.
She herself is a woman who is seriously insecure, and Yin Junjiu has rescued her twice, once in the alley behind the bar, once in a hotel fire... Well, if it is counted at the time when she was misunderstood and all thoughts were lost, Yin Jundeng If the newspaper announced its support, there would be three times.
Under such circumstances, Deng Lijun did not regard Yin Jun as a child at all, but as a solid chest that can be relied on completely.
So Deng Lijun completely ignored that Yin Jun was nine years younger than herself, but had a peaceful relationship with Yin Jun's peers, and would act coquettishly from time to time.
After all, there is an unspeakable ambiguity between the two of them!
It's just that the complaints are all complaints, Teresa Teng still likes the words and melody of this song very much.
After getting the sheet music and listening to Yin Jun sing it twice, Deng Lijun was able to hum softly.
With Teresa Teng's talent in singing, she only practiced for a day, and then recorded in the studio for half a day to find out how she felt, and then recorded three versions of "carelesswhisper" for single production.
Deng Lijun listened to Yin Jun's words very much, so she told PolyGram that she and the songwriter had to sign a sharing agreement for this song, which belonged to the kind that the more you sell, the more you get.
PolyGram doesn't think it's too much, they do it all in Europe.
It's just that in places like Asia where regulations are not strict, they will make some small moves.
Besides, this is just a single EP, even if you give Teresa Teng and the songwriter good conditions, there is not much money.
At the beginning, PolyGram only recorded 20,000 EPs for Teresa Teng to see if they could be sold out within half a year. This was a good victory, and it was considered to have introduced the best singer in Asia to the British.
But PolyGram never expected that after they pushed "carelesswhisper" a little bit, the song immediately hit the top of the chart in the third week, and Teresa Teng conquered British fans with one song them.
Like the United States, the popularity of chart-topping songs is considered comprehensively, but the most important thing is sales.
After more than 1,300 copies in the first week of marketing, it reached more than 5,000 in the second week, and directly exceeded 25,000 in the third week. If it hadn’t been for the good results in the second week and some additional orders, it would have been sold out. up.
In this way, all the stocks were sold out in the third week, and the record factory took out a box as soon as it came out, but it couldn't satisfy the fans in London, let alone the fans in other parts of the UK.
PolyGram claims to be one of the top three record companies in the world. Once it starts to pay attention to a certain singer or a certain EP, it will explode with great power.
After launching two recording production lines, "carelesswhisper" successfully topped the UK pop music charts in the fourth week and became the champion, and with a terrifying sales volume of 73,000 copies, it ranked among all UK singles this year. Song sales champion!
It was also on the 29th, which was the fourth week of release in the UK, that PolyGram began sending "carelesswhisper" to Germany, France, Spain, Italy... and other developed countries in Western Europe. As a result, "carelesswhisper" has long been famous "carelesswhisper" was first aired on the radio, and it received great acclaim, and even airborne to the championship in France and Spain!
PolyGram was very excited about this. On the one hand, it gave "carelesswhisper" five production lines again, and on the other hand, it launched a bigger publicity, and planned to send it to the US billboard for rankings!
However, at the same time, the people in PolyGram's finance department felt distressed.
According to the current fierce posture, the EP sales of "carelesswhisper" will at least reach 3 million copies!
If this is the case, Teresa Teng and the songwriter will share a large sum of money, which will greatly reduce the profit of Polygram!
But they have no choice, who knew this song would be so popular?
Even the boss of Polygram's record department was alarmed and instructed them to quickly sign an album release contract with Teresa Deng, and use "carelesswhisper" as the title song, and use the album to make a fortune.
As a result, Teresa Teng directly refused without hesitation.
"I came to Europe to film, and to relax, not for work." Teresa Teng replied.
"Teresa, you believe me, you have an unparalleled musical talent, don't let it go to waste!" The person in charge of PolyGram persuaded her, "You have proved yourself with a big hit song, now it's you It's time to conquer the global audience! Let's make an album! We will find you the best songwriter, the best producer, and give you the best promotion plan, which will definitely make you popular all over the world!"
To be honest, any singer will be moved when he hears such words.
Deng Lijun is no exception.
But she has been releasing albums and doing tours for the past few years, so she has long been tired.
Now she just wants to take a good walk around, play, and take a look, which will be a good promotion for her life experience.
If I start to be busy again from now on, I will become the same as in previous years. I don’t know what to be busy for. In retrospect, there is only endless emptiness and hard work.
After the previous incident of fake passports, Teresa Teng figured out a lot.
so her answer now
is to refuse.
It is possible to make an album, but not now.
Teresa Teng needs to be given time and room for imagination.
When encountering such a singer who has no desires and desires, Polygram has no choice.
Fortunately, they have also met a lot of strange singers, and Deng Lijun is still normal.
What you want is time, well, we will give it to you!
Give you a year to prepare this album, it should be all right, right?
Don't ask why we are so accommodating to you, singers who can prove that they can be popular are treated like this!
