1055 1040. Record Release Meeting (1/5)

Chapter 1055 1040. Record Sales Meeting (15)

After seeing off Princess Eugenie and his wife, Wang Bo has something to do, which is to participate in the release of the band's new album by the Lane Brothers.

According to the agreement, Lao Wang built a recording studio for them, but because of the cost, this recording studio is relatively simple, and the records produced are C-level records.

The New Zealand music industry divides records into five grades according to sound quality and quality, namely A/B/C/D/F, arranged in order of grade.

Among them, F-level records are for home use, that is, they are recorded and played at home. Many music lovers will release their own records, but these records cannot be sold, and can only be distributed to friends and relatives as souvenirs.

D-grade records are a little out of the confinement of the family. It is the choice of many street singers. The sound quality of the record is still relatively poor, but it can already be heard. Some street performers will sell this self-made record to make money.

The C-level record can be regarded as a watershed. This is the most sub-standard record for professional singers. Although the sound quality is still average, the sound collection effect is not good, which leads to broken sound effects in the songs from time to time.

However, this is already a record recorded in a serious recording studio and recording studio, at least the inside is well-equipped, and the songs are considered to be the same thing.

The recording studio and recording room invested by Wang Bo are primary facilities with relatively complete equipment, which is enough to test the water for Sunset Orchestra.

B-level and A-level records need to be produced in professional recording studios and studios. This cannot be done with money. Excellent recording studios are responsible for the records they release.

If you don't have a bit of fame, even if you give money, they won't let you in the recording studio.

The Ryan brothers are quite well-known, but they are limited to small circles such as Sunset Town, Oak City, and Cromwell. In Auckland and Wellington, no one pays attention to them.

Fortunately, these four people are quite easy to satisfy. Their dream is to go on a world tour, but this is just a dream. They are already very happy to be able to produce a record that can be sold commercially in their lifetime.

The record release is on the weekend, and everyone has time on this day.

Wang Bo is very loyal to the four of them. The billboards that can be used for publicity in Sunset Town are all promoting this album, and the promotional vehicles have been wandering around the town these days, passing on the news of the album's release.

In addition, he has advertised the record in numerous South Island magazines, websites and new media.

Mexican Pretty Boy has calculated that the cost of promoting this record has exceeded 1.5 million New Zealand dollars.

Wang Bo doesn't feel bad, the bar is very profitable, and the four brothers are the golden signs of the bar, attracting a large number of customers.

Of course, this is mainly the effect of the heart of the second-level bar, but it can't annihilate the contribution made by the main band.

Today, the bar can earn more than two million New Zealand dollars a month for him. The main reason is that there are a lot of customers. At least seven or eight hundred people gather in the bar every night, and the upper and lower floors are full.

Therefore, looking at the promotional expenses as not even a month's income, Lao Wang is a bit stingy.

On Saturday, there were people coming and going in the large parking lot in front of the Sunset Town Department Store. Uncle Bing moved the car away to clear a large space, propped up the stage, put up promotional posters, and started the record sales activity.

The poster was 20 meters high and 15 meters wide. This poster alone cost 8,000 yuan.

Above are high-definition photos of Ryan and Reddy, in the same steampunk style as the bar.

The background of the poster is the castle and the sky. Among them, the sky is overcast and has the momentum of black clouds overwhelming the city. The castle below is in a magical style. There are things like propellers, gears, pistons, bearings and robots inside. A steam factory.

The band members are also dressed in the same style. Reddy, as the lead singer, is dressed as a magician standing on a fountain spraying flames, and Ryan is dressed as a gentleman in a tuxedo, top hat, walking stick and pocket watch.

Tutu, a Maori youth, is leaning against the door with a guitar in the shape of a machine gun, while a Scottish youth, Badman Firth, is leaning on a drum kit and smiling all over his face.

The creative design of this poster is nothing to admire, but castles are rare in New Zealand, and the castle used as the background is in a steampunk style, so it is still very attractive in high-definition resolution.

The cover of the album also uses a poster photo, and the title of the theme is "Roaring Singing".

The supermarket specially found a storage room for the four of them to use as a dressing room, and Wang Bo found a makeup company from Aocheng to be in charge of their makeup.

Ryan is old, in his thirties, and he doesn't care about makeup, so he simply put on a foundation and it's over. He sat next to him and drank mineral water. When Wang Bo entered, he first saw him frowning.

"Hey buddy, what's the problem? Why are you so unhappy?" he asked strangely.

Ryan shrugged and said, "Boss, please sit down, I'm not unhappy, I'm nervous. Damn, I don't know if our record will be accepted, but I think we've sung really well."

Wang Bo punched him in the chest and said, "I'll just tell you, buddy, Eva and I will definitely buy two copies, and the eight songs in it, I bet they will all become classics!"

The heart of the bar is still very strong, especially in the second-level state, it has a bonus to the singer's singing effect and singing ability, in addition to the creative ability, guided by the heart of the bar, they have devoted themselves to attainments for two and a half years, creating The songs that come out are really nice.

Wang Bo tried it, and he was very intoxicated when he listened to it. However, different countries and different cultures have different understandings of music, and he cannot represent the perception of New Zealanders.

However, he felt that this record should be a success. The orchestra really put in a lot of effort to prepare it, and it took nearly a year just to record it.

Because the recording effect in the recording studio is not good, every song will have broken sound. In order to avoid this situation, they record songs again and again until they are in a perfect state.

Reddy and the other three finished their makeup one after another. Wang Bo opened the door to appear as the host, and walked quickly onto the host stage.

Looking at his back, Reddy said very moved: "For our album, the boss has paid a lot."

Ryan smiled: "That's why we are willing to use the name Sunset Orchestra."

"Isn't it because the name of our Brothers Orchestra is too bad, so we had to choose this name?" Tutu, who was taciturn, joked. He knew that everyone was nervous.

After Wang Bo stood on the host stage, he knew that today's sales would be good, and the audience in the audience was more than they expected!

A crowd of at least a thousand people appeared on the scene. Watching from the condescending platform, it can be seen that the surrounding area of ​​the parking lot is full of cars, which means that many people came from the surrounding towns.

As soon as he came to the stage, applause and cheers erupted from the audience, as well as the media he hired with his connections, all kinds of flashing lights lit up!
