Chapter 535 Brilliant Sales Are Just the Beginning! (First Update!)

The next day, Friday the 16th, while Yin Jun was busy here, Teresa Teng's Japanese album "The Goddess in the Toilet" was released grandly under the eyes of all the people.

According to Yin Jun's request, Teresa Teng only did promotional activities at two record stores in Tokyo that day, sang a few songs, and signed thousands of albums. The time seems to be a little abundant. Teresa Teng, who is used to being busy, On the contrary, I am not used to it.

Miura Hui'an was much more nervous than Teresa Teng. He led a group of PolyGram personnel and kept an eye on the telephone and fax machine, waiting for the intelligence summary of each sales area.

Everyone knows that Teresa Teng's album is going to be a hit, but they dare not say to what extent it will be a hit.

After all, the number of single album sales in Japan only exceeded 1 million in the past few years, and in the past one or two years, there are only a handful of sales that can reach 1 million.

Teresa Teng, with the reputation of "the world's number one Asian female singer" and the great glory of being the top sales chart in more than 20 countries, "returned" to Japan. The Japanese fans who regard Teresa Teng as their own are of course very supportive .

However, the first recording of 3 million records and the final preparation of 5 million records make anyone feel terrified.

After some opponents learned the news a few days ago, they came out with bitter words.

"Tsk tsk, Teresa came back for our record, so confident!"

"Three million copies for the first time? Am I right? Who does she think she is? If she is good in the United States, can she be domineering in Japan?"

"Oh my god, she really wants to set a record? Don't hope that the greater you are, the greater the disappointment!"

"People's 1 million records are all accumulated in one or two years. Your preparation for 5 million records, Teresa, is to sell for 10 years, right?"

"Hehe, Polygram is such an idiot. The fact that "The Goddess in the Toilet" is selling well doesn't mean that all Teresa's songs are good!"

"I heard that all the songs in her album were written by that mysterious Jun, Teresa's friend from Xiangjiang. How can a Xiangjiang person understand our Japanese culture? I don't think so!"

"That's right! Xiangjiang can only sing our Japanese remakes, how can there be a good original? Teresa will suffer this time!"

"..."

With the bad-mouthing of such a group of people, Miura Huian, who made the decision to prepare the first phase of 3 million copies and the final sales volume of 5 million copies, was also a little bit worried.

But the matter has come to an end, and when it has to be done, Miura Hui'an can't care so much.

While praying for blessings from the gods and Buddhas, he carefully stared at the release of the first day's sales data.

At 11:30 in the evening, one after another, large record stores sent over the results.

There is no such thing as online sales at this time, so usually after the store closes at 9-10 o'clock, you can start counting the sales volume for the day.

Although there is no computer, the Japanese are always rigorous in doing things, and the sales data is quickly collected from small shops to large shops, and then to the regional headquarters, layer by layer.

"XX record store in Shizuoka prefecture sold 2,323 copies today!"

"The total sales volume of xx record audio club in the Shikoku area is 22,169!"

"The total distribution of xx Osaka is 7290!"

"A total of 14,890 copies were sold in xx28 stores in Ikebukuro, Tokyo!"

"Sapporo xx record chain line is 5992 copies!"

"..."

At 2:30 in the morning, all the statistical data were released. Looking at the numbers in front of him, Miura Hui'an, who had been busy all day, trembled a little.

He couldn't believe what he saw.

"The Goddess in the Toilet", May 16 (golden), sold 623,218 copies on that day!

correct!

Over 620,000 copies were sold in one day!

God!

Teresa sold countless singers' lifetime record sales in one day!

The last time it sold 1 million units, it took a full 32 weeks to sell this amount.

Teresa might break her record in two days!

God, apart from those big singers in Europe and America, is there anyone in Japan who sold more than 1 million albums in two days?

At this rate, 5 million copies are just around the corner!

really!

Sure enough, Teresa is a genius! Mr. Jun is a genius! I, Miura Hui'an, also have the eyes to recognize talents!

At the same time that Miura Huian was satisfied with pride and excitement, the employees of PolyGram next to him cheered.

During this time, in order to record records for Teresa Teng, to run sales outlets for Teresa Teng, and to make publicity means, they were extremely busy.

But with today's achievements, I proudly tell them that all your hard work is worth it!

The history of the Japanese recording industry has been created by everyone at Polygram!

Came back to his senses, Miura Huian looked at the cheering employees, and couldn't help but smile, "Everyone, hurry up and find a place to rest. Now Teresa's success is just the beginning! The next publicity and signing, It’s about to start vigorously! We try to show people in the record industry all over Japan what it means to be invincible!”

"yes!"

Success is the best excitement. Although the employees want to rest, the excitement has not dissipated.

"Go, or the promotion will be delayed, I can't spare you!" Miura Hui'an smiled and waved, "By the way, all of you, as well as other staff, will get double salary this month! If the sale exceeds expectations Then I will definitely give you two more months' salary at the end of the year as a bonus!"

"Wow……"

"Long live!!"

Hearing this sentence, a group of people jumped with joy.

It is a happy event to achieve success in work, and it is even more happy to be able to go home with more salary!

...

When Yin Jun got the news, Deng Lijun was going to Shinagawa District to do publicity.

Tokyo is the largest urban agglomeration in Japan. Although it is not expanding into a behemoth as it will be in the future, it has long been number one in Asia.

In the 1980s, Tokyo still has the 23 wards as the main urban area, and it is the center of Japan's economy, politics, and culture. Therefore, Teresa Teng spent 5 days in Tokyo for more than ten days of publicity and planning.

The remaining 5 days are in Osaka, Kyoto and Nagoya, and the extra 5 or 6 days are for other big cities in Japan.

Deng Lijun didn't dare to tell Yin Jun that according to the current sales situation, she probably wants to add half a month of publicity time to visit every big city in Japan.

Tianhou's sister didn't know either. Yin Jun was a little disappointed when he heard that there were only more than 620,000 copies sold on the first day.

The teenager knows that the current sales of Japanese records cannot be compared with AKB48's sales of over 1 million copies on the first day in the future, because that is already the pinnacle of Japanese idol group marketing, and now Japanese singing has just started, and it will not be until the 1990s. Will continue to refresh the peak.

But what he took out were all works that ranked first in Japan's Oricon List! The single EP sales volume of each song has never been less than 1 million copies!

What's more, there is such a super classic and heart-warming Divine Comedy like "The Goddess in the Toilet", which will never become outdated no matter when and where it is played.

In addition, Japan does not have a hundred flowers blooming now, and idols are even very scarce, so Yin Jun believes that the sales volume of Teresa Teng's album on the first day cannot exceed 1 million, and it should be more than 800,000. Unexpectedly, it was only more than 620,000 .

It seems that it is not good to rush everything.

In fact, Yin Jun knew that he was too demanding.

yes.

The sales volume of AKB48's album exceeded 1 million copies on the first day of release, but it just burst out all the enthusiasm. have.

To put it bluntly, their fan base is just a little bit, and they will be gone when they are sold out, and there will not be much increase.

Teresa Teng's records are extremely good, and any song can stand scrutiny and repeated listening.

It is certainly impossible for such a record to have a sharp drop in sales the next day.

On the contrary, with the spread of word of mouth, "The Goddess in the Toilet" will definitely sell well in the long run.

In places with mature markets like Japan and the United States, it is too easy for a record to sell for a year or two.

Don't believe it yet.

Why did Michael Jackson's "Thriller" sell 100 million copies?

Do you really think it was sold in a year and a half?

They sold it for 20 or 30 years before they finally had such a sales volume!

That is to say, the Japanese market is too small. The English record market has more than 2 billion people, and most of them are wealthy developed countries, while the Japanese only has such an audience of 120 million. It’s amazing, plus a little Korean and Southeast Asian fans. But 150 million.

How can you compare such a gap of more than ten times?

Therefore, Yin Jun feels that the final sales of Teresa Teng's album should be able to break through Utada Hikaru's record of 7.65 million copies, but whether it can break through 10 million copies is unknown.

Even now, Deng Lijun did not break 1 million on the first day, and Yin Jun has not changed his confidence.

And the Japanese market is just the beginning.

In the next thirty years, the center of the world's singing industry will still be the United States.

Taking advantage of Teresa Teng's young age and her peak state, Yin Jun plans to prepare another super English album, so that she can create an unprecedented super sales record!

If it is a language record like English, the peak single record of a female singer is created by Shania Twain of Canada. "Come On Over" has sold more than 40 million copies worldwide. Waiting for the queen singer, they can only bow their heads.

Teresa Teng may have less than 40 million English records because she is from China, but this is not absolute.

One must know that the queen singers who will gallop in the music scene in the future basically have not made it to the music scene, and none of the current female singers in the music scene can stand out.

Once Teresa Teng occupied this vacuum period, coupled with Yin Jun's good songs, Polygram's crazy promotion, and the previous word-of-mouth, 40 million copies, after seven or eight years, it might not be impossible to achieve!

After all, no matter how you say it, the song comes first.

A good song and a good voice can touch people's hearts no matter what country you are from.

Isn't it the same for our Chinese fans?

Even if we are not familiar with languages ​​like English, Japanese, and Korean, good songs touch our hearts directly, so we can appreciate them.

Yin Jun has little interest in the music world, which can be seen from his attitude towards the future superstars in Xiangjiang.

But for Teresa Teng, he has deep feelings, plus the two have a fate in this life, the boy is naturally willing to help her.

Besides, the satisfaction in creating a world-class queen by myself is unparalleled!
