Chapter 344 Invincible

At ten o'clock the next morning, Li Qian was on the road when Liao Liao personally called.

Li Qian pulled over and got on the phone.

"I asked Wei Lan to push all the ones that could be pushed. Some were difficult to push, and some were not too dare to push. I negotiated with the other party and adjusted the date, so in the next few days, I will rush around. , in about four or five days, around the 25th, all the propaganda work will be over..."

There was obviously some fatigue in her voice, "Isn't it going to delay things?"

Li Qian was a little distressed, he was silent for a moment, and said, "Are you tired?"

Liao Liao smiled, "It's okay. This is exactly what I want, and I will go home after a few days of busy work!"

Li Qian could only smile when he heard this.

As a sister of Minghu Culture, each of Liao Liao's albums has involved a lot, and the impact of her album sales has never only affected herself. Therefore, the promotion and release of each album of Liao Liao is the top priority of Minghu Culture. Like this "Woman Flower", three months before the scheduled release date, the publicity and distribution department has already started to work on it for her. Arranging and planning the promotional itinerary.

If you want to change, of course it is not so easy to change.

So, even though Li Qian hoped that Liao Liao would try his best to find time to come back when talking on the phone last night, and then go to publicize after this is over, but it is obviously not Wei Lan who dares to decide on such a big matter. Even if the order comes from Li Qian and Liao Liao, it won't work. In the end, Qi Jie, who was in Singapore, had to be alarmed.

Therefore, Qi Jie had already called early in the morning, hoping to reduce the number of programs and record them in advance, instead of letting Liao Liao suddenly withdraw in the middle of the promotion—that way, it would be in "Women's Flower" "It is very dangerous to form a publicity vacuum for at least a week or as many as several weeks during the period after the listing.

Even for Liao Liao's album, Qi Jie would never dare to take such a risk, after all, she still has to compete with Zhou Mo for sales!

Therefore, Li Qian respected her suggestion as a manager and agreed to end the publicity period early.

When the call was over, Li Qian put away his cell phone, looked at the songbook he had just printed out in his hand, tapped his fingers on the paper vigorously, and his eyes became firmer.

Maybe it's useless, but how do you know it won't work if you don't try it?

Besides, if you don't make it, you won't make it, and you can't lose anything anyway.

At present, and even in the next few years, my main market is still domestic and Chinese.

After thinking about it, Li Qian felt relieved. He picked up the phone and thought about it, then dialed Wang Jinglu's phone. When the call was connected, he asked with a smile, "I remember that you don't have class for three or four in the morning?"

On the other end of the phone, Wang Jinglu whispered, "Yes... just wait a moment, I'll find a place, it's in the library."

After about half a minute, her voice became louder, "What's the matter?"

Li Qian asked again: "Is there any class in the afternoon?"

After a while, Wang Jinglu said, "You can escape."

Li Qian laughed, "Do you still remember that French restaurant? Go eat steak?"

"good!"

…………

Recently, Li Qian has entrusted two real estate companies to help him choose land. During lunch time, I answered two phone calls. So, I was planning to go to the movies together in the afternoon, but the two of them temporarily decided not to watch the movie, but to go to the ground first.

However, after running around and looking at several places that the real estate company had found, Li Qian was not very satisfied.

Either the place is too big, or the place is too small, or the surrounding environment is relatively poor. Li Qian wants to buy a piece of land to build a house by himself, but he doesn't want to build a large villa with an area of ​​tens of acres, nor is he willing to buy a one-acre or two-acre villa in the planned villa area. It's more convenient than buying and building directly.

So, wasted an afternoon in vain.

But that night, he and Wang Jinglu had dinner together, and went to watch a movie happily.

When they woke up the next morning, after they had breakfast, they went out to hang out together again.

Bookstores, clothing stores, large shopping malls, movie theaters, audio-visual stores... At present, as long as Li Qian is not too high-profile when he walks on the street, he will not be recognized by others within a few steps. Therefore, two people Shopping together hand in hand, generally speaking, it feels very good.

Then, on May 21st, Sunday morning, Qi Jie came back.

After she came back, she was not in a hurry to rest, and first sent the staff with all the documents back to the company for filing, then took a taxi by herself and went straight to the place that she had made an appointment with on the phone.

This lunch became three people eating together.

After eating, Wang Jinglu hurriedly asked for a pot of tea, and Qi Jie began to report to work.

Overall, after more than ten days, she has basically achieved the original goal: Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, the three most important places in the Southeast Asian market, have all been taken down by Minghu Culture.

Among them, Singapore is the simplest. Minghu Culture has a direct joint venture with a local distribution company and registered a new distribution company. The other party is responsible for sharing the distribution network, and Minghu Culture is responsible for providing publicity support. It belongs to the other side, and this side has obtained the financial rights. At the executive level, in addition to the general manager being appointed by the other party, they are also appointed by both parties in a 1:1 ratio.

Secondly, Qi Jie led the team. After investigation, they finally chose a company that was about to become insolvent. With a debt of around one million dollars, but time is running out, Qi Jie immediately made a decision and directly acquired a total of 78% of the company's shareholders at a price of 2.3 million dollars, successfully becoming the company's largest shareholder, and Absolute holding.

In contrast, things in Indonesia are the slowest and most procrastinated.

After a week of negotiations, Minghu Culture finally negotiated a shareholding contract with a local issuing company. After the shareholding is completed, Minghu Culture will acquire a 49% stake in that issuing company at a price of 2.5 million US dollars.

In short, He Runqing's album will be released soon, and a delay of one day may give up a lot of profits for the pirated market. Therefore, everything is done quickly, and it is inevitable to suffer a little money. A total of millions of dollars were thrown out by investing in shares or capital injections. Minghu Culture's first step in developing a distribution network in Southeast Asia is considered to be a step forward.

These matters are not trivial. As the general manager of the company, Qi Jie certainly has the right to make decisions, but after all, Li Qian is the owner of the company, so after she came back, the first thing she did was to report to Li Qian.

After listening to her report, Li Qian just nodded and said, "If you think it's okay, then do it. I believe in you and support your decision!"

Qi Jie smiled when she heard this, and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

Not knowing whether it was a joke or a complaint, she shook her head with a smile and said, "I knew you would say that."

…………

Monday, May 22.

Even though she had been traveling for more than ten days, Qi Jie herself was extremely tired. Qi Jie gave everyone on a business trip a day off, but she didn't give herself a day off. Early in the morning, she had already arrived at the company early.

At 9:10 in the morning, Qi Jie had already convened a meeting of the company's senior executives. On the one hand, he wanted to announce the results of the business trip and listen to everyone's opinions. On the other hand, of course, he asked all departments to report to her. During the half-month period of her business trip, the internal affairs of the company.

The most important of these is the distribution and sales of "Women's Flower".

As soon as the meeting ended, everyone walked out of the meeting room chatting and laughing. Huang Wenjuan had already walked over with a few pieces of paper, and said with a smile, "President Qi, the "Weekly" has sent over the sales rankings."

Qi Jie was discussing things with Lao Xu from the publishing department, and she came to the end, but when Huang Wenjuan called out, she immediately raised her head, walked over with a few steps expectantly, took the things in Huang Wenjuan's hand, and subconsciously asked: "Have you seen it, how much?"

While speaking, she herself had seen the data.

Because it is too conspicuous.

Dongguan Bookstore Music/Audio Video Sales Ranking, 1998.05.15—1998.05.21.

First place, 40558 pieces, "Female Flower", Liao Liao, Minghu Culture, the first week.

Second place, 27963 copies, "Witch's Tears", Zhou Mo, Sony Records, first week.

The third place, 18381 pieces, "Fake Monk", the four beauties band, Minghu Culture, the tenth week.

Fourth place, 8486 copies, "Love to the End", Zhao Xinfu, Sony Records, twenty-seventh week.

…………

Seventh place, 5085 copies, "Koi", Feng Feifei, Sony Records, fifth week.

…………

Qi Jie raised her eyebrows, as if she was smiling, then, she raised her head, and seeing everyone looking at her, she smiled, raised the leaderboard in her hand, and said calmly: "First, 40,000 Zero five hundred fifty-eight!"

"yeah!"

Everyone laughed and clenched their fists, and some clapped their hands.

If you want to say happy, of course you are happy, but it is just happy, and no one will show surprise, ecstasy or the like-this is the album of Da Liao Liao, the queen of the country, with more than 40,000 copies in the first week It's really scary, but it's a completely "normal" value for her, isn't it?

Therefore, even Qi Jie looked calm and breezy.

At this time, she smiled and said: "Thank you for your work during the past period of time. I think, if it doesn't happen as expected, we can have a meeting later to discuss everyone's semi-annual awards."

"yeah!"

Everyone laughed, then laughed and clapped again.

After a while of applause, Qi Jie smiled and said: "Okay, everyone can go back to work now. You must have this sales ranking list on your desks by now, but pay attention, you can be happy or proud , It's okay to show off, but don't delay work!"

Everyone laughed, agreed in a confused manner, and then walked out of the meeting room in twos and threes.

…………

After everyone left the meeting room, Qi Jie and Huang Wenjuan also went to the general manager's office. After entering the office, Qi Jie pointed to the filing cabinet over there, "Juanzi, go and get the sales statistics folder."

While speaking, she walked quickly to the desk, spread out the ranking list in her hand, and looked at it seriously.

After a while, Huang Wenjuan found the folder and brought it over. Qi Jie took it, opened it, flipped through it, found the place, looked at it a few times, and sighed, "Sure enough!"

She looked up at Huang Wenjuan, smiled with relief and joy, and said, "Ranked third in history!"

The first place was He Runqing's "Dream Chaser". At that time, it was the first time in China, and even the world, to promote it through the Internet on demand. In addition, there was a big gimmick about the transformation of a sweet song queen, so it caused a lot of momentum. To a certain extent, a large number of sales that should have been sold slowly were concentrated in the first two weeks of listing.

Therefore, although "Dream Chaser" experienced a slightly terrifying sales decline in the third and fourth weeks after its release, it was not until the fifth week that it stabilized at around 20,000 copies in a single week and resumed a flat The downtrend eventually made a big sell. But I have to admit that this concentrated weekly sales volume is really scary enough.

In the second week of the release of "Dream Chaser", this album scored a super high record of 63,591 copies, which no one can break so far!

The second place in history is Liao Liao's "Grateful Heart".

There were also some special circumstances at that time, because Dongguan Bookstore deliberately suppressed the distribution of goods to the stores below, so many VIP users of Dongguan Bookstore placed orders, but they could not get the goods, so the sales volume was piled up In the second week. As a result, in that week, "Grateful Heart" got an astonishing score of 50,864 copies in a single week at Dongguan Bookstore!

In fact, everyone understands that these two data are of no reference at all, because they were formed by accident. Therefore, in terms of normal results, it should be the result created by "Women's Flower" this week. The 40,558 of this is the first in history.

And this is only the first week on the market!

As we all know, under normal circumstances, the second to third week after an album is released is the peak period of sales, which is the peak of the sales curve of the entire album!

Therefore, it is foreseeable that the score of "Women's Flower" next week will steadily exceed 40,000!

…………

After comparing Liao and Liao's data, He Runqing couldn't wait to turn to Zhou Mo's data. After looking at it, she gave two "tsk tsk" and couldn't help sighing: "This time at the Spring Festival Gala, singing "Meeting in Nine Eighth" is very important to her. Help far surpasses Liao Liao!"

Huang Wenjuan glanced at the documents in her hand, couldn't help but nodded, and said, "She will probably be able to pass 30,000 documents next week?"

Qi Jie nodded and said, "Almost!"

After a pause, she turned her gaze back to Liao Liao's group, and couldn't help sighing: "It's a pity! Such a good grade will definitely sell well, but the money can only be earned by Sony! Sigh... We can only start with Sister Runqing."

Huang Wenjuan smiled and couldn't help but said: "Sister Qi, if you say that, if other companies hear about it, will they want to kill you?"

Qi Jie smiled, and immediately said with a self-deprecating tone: "That's right, we still earned the big head!"

While speaking, she put down the documents in her hand, thought for a while, then turned her head and stared at Zhou Mo's name for a while, then looked at the number "27963" for a long time, smiled slowly, and nodded her finger on it , and said to Huang Wenjuan: "When she comes over, together with Wang Jingxue and Xie Bing, we will be truly invincible among female singers!"

After a pause, she took out her mobile phone, turned her head and asked, "Did you call Li Qian?"

Huang Wenjuan shook her head, put away the documents on her desk, and said, "No, I'm waiting for you to type!"

Qi Jie smiled and asked, "Why did he go?"

Huang Wenjuan shrugged, "It is said that... he wants to buy land? Build a house? Anyway, I heard that he went to look at the land."

Qi Jie thought for a while and made the call.
