It can be said that before the arrival of a new wave of market storms, the past week was the last period of calm before the storm. When the new albums of Liu Mingliang and He Runqing are released, coupled with the fact that Liao Liao and Zhou Mo will continue to be strong, the prosperity of the domestic record market will certainly be the most prosperous period of the year, but for newcomers, even if it is For a semi-newcomer like Sima Duoduo, it is very likely that he will be overwhelmed by the tide of the market at any time.
Summer vacation has always been a carnival for big names and a cemetery for newcomers!

Dongguan Bookstore Sales Ranking, June 19-June 25——
First place, "Female Flower", Liao Liao, 30583 sheets, sixth week, Minghu Culture.
Second place, "Witch's Tears", Zhou Mo, 28957 copies, sixth week, Sony Records.
Third place, "Flying Alone", Sima Duoduo, 12,568 copies, second week, Sony Records.
Fourth place, "Winter Rose", Zheng Guofeng, 10,387 copies, the first week, Xinda Records.
Fifth place, "Fake Monk", four beauties band, 8614 sheets, fifteenth week, Minghu Culture.
…………
Six weeks after their release, both "Flower of a Woman" and "Witch's Tears" have entered a continuous and steady decline cycle. After Zhou Mo achieved sales of more than 30,000 copies in a single week for four consecutive weeks, this week finally fell below the The 30,000 mark, but the decline rate of these two albums has always been within an extremely healthy range.
To put it simply, these two albums, which jointly swept nearly 60,000 copies of Dongguan Bookstore sales this week, are still strong in the sixth week of their release, and they are still dominating the entire domestic record market.
Sima Duoduo, who had been placed high hopes by the industry before, also received quite acclaim after its launch, "Flying Lonely". After achieving 13,250 copies in the first week, it did not go higher this week and achieved its own. The sales peak, however, although not as good as the first week's sales, it still stayed at more than 10,000 copies, and the sales volume of 12,568 was actually only 682 copies lower than the first week.
It should be said that as long as she maintains a certain long-term sales ability in the future and does not fall too sharply, then it should not be a big problem for her album to finally get a platinum record-although, this achievement is for Sima Duoduo herself, and for Sima Duoduo. For Sony Records, it is very likely that it will be a "not satisfactory" evaluation, but in any case, Sima Duoduo's solo flight is not a failure.
As long as the subsequent second album can continue this style and this level of sales, as an independent singer, Sima Duoduo has already gained a firm foothold in the music scene.
In addition, the continued best-selling of "Fake Monk" is completely expected. Compared with the sales of 8512 copies in the previous week, they even sold 102 more copies this week.
What really brought some surprises to the music market was the newcomer Zheng Guofeng launched last Wednesday by Cinda Records.
This melancholy prince-type rookie has sold over 10,000 yuan in a single week, and his style is "melancholy to heartbreaking", which has been well received in the industry. And this album, and the appearance of this singer, to a certain extent, once again confirmed the statement that "Xinda is good at cultivating new talents", which is really extremely correct.
After listening to this album, Li Qian, Liao Liao, He Runqing, He Wei, Li Jinlong and others all gave very high evaluations - "If as expected, this album will continue to be strong next week. In the future, this He is Huang Yuqing's great enemy!" This was He Wei's evaluation, and Liao Liao and others quite agreed.

June 27, afternoon.
Minghu Culture, Music Director Office.
Liao Liao walked up and down in front of Li Qian irritably, muttering, "What should I do, what should I do?"
At the beginning, Li Qian could barely control himself, let himself ignore her, just typed and sorted out his script, but after a long time, he couldn't bear it anymore, so he had to push away the keyboard, and said helplessly: "What can I do?" Ah, she didn't sign up at all when she applied for the exam, and when it was almost the college entrance examination, she suddenly wanted to enter... Is it so easy to get into the music academy?"
Liao Liao looked back at him, feeling irritable, but he could only sigh and threw himself onto the sofa.
Just this morning, Liao's father called and said that he went to the school. According to the teacher in charge, Liao Min's grades may not be admitted to public universities. If he wants to, he can only go to those expensive private schools. University.
There is nothing to be afraid of if the tuition is more expensive. The key is that the reputation of private universities is not very good. If you go to study there for four years, you will get an extra diploma, and it is not worth much, and you may not be able to learn much knowledge, but it is very possible. She will learn all her bad habits—the problem is that Liao Min didn't take it seriously at first, and even thought about not even going to university, and started working directly, but as the exam was approaching, this girl suddenly changed her mind.
I don't know if she was stimulated by something, but she suddenly wanted to go to college again, so she went home and asked her father to help her find a way.
Liao's father's business is not small, and he has a large circle of friends in the business circle, but when he found a friend who can talk in this area, he found that there are public schools willing to accept students like Liao Min who have not passed the college entrance examination. Although the number of places is limited every year, but the other party can get it, that is - donate 3 million yuan!
And that's not counting the part that is sure to give a personal gift!
Father Liao has the money, and there is no shortage of the 3 million. But for a self-made businessman, he always feels like being slaughtered, so he called Liao Liao afterwards: You two are in Shuntian Mansion. You are so successful, can you send your sister to the Conservatory of Music?
That obviously can't! Huaxia Conservatory of Music is a top institution in the domestic music industry!
But Dad Liao said, I have limited connections, and I'm only in the small circle here in Liaoning. There is really no other way to think about it. You are her sister, so you have to figure out a way for this matter.
Therefore, Liao Liao had no choice but to call a large group of friends, of course Cao Zhan and Wang Huaiyu were among them, especially Wang Huaiyu, who was also a professor at the Conservatory of Music, but it was useless, no one could fit her in.
So, from morning to now, she has become even more irritable than when her aunt came.
After thinking for a while, Li Qian stood up and walked over to her, sat next to her, hugged her shoulders, patted her lightly, and said, "Okay, if it really doesn't work, let her come here to come to a private university. After all, if you are close, you can still keep an eye on it."
Liao Liao frowned, "My father means that he is determined not to let her go to a private school!"
While talking, she leaned into Li Qian's arms, looked at Li Qian pitifully, "Why don't you give Dean Zhou a call?" After a pause, she didn't know if she cared about it, but she specially emphasized that , "You are her brother-in-law, you can't leave it alone, can you?"
Li Qian frowned, hesitating.
The Dean Zhou she was talking about was of course Dean Zhou Qi of the Huaxia Conservatory of Music.
Earlier at the Changping Music Festival, Li Qian had a good chat with him, and even left each other on the phone. He even sincerely invited Li Qian to give lectures, and wanted to hire him as a guest professor at the Conservatory of Music—don’t look at Liao Liao. Currently the top star in China, but in front of someone like Dean Zhou Qi, Li Qian still has more face.
Of course it is possible to make phone calls, but the problem is that Li Qian knows very well that it is useless to call.
In fact, Liao Liao knew it very well.
It wasn't that the other party didn't give face, it was Huaxia Conservatory of Music at this level, it was impossible to open such a back door at all, not to mention that Zhou Qi, as the dean, has always been an educator with excellent reputation.
Calling him about something like this is insulting him.
After thinking for a while, Li Qian took out the phone, put it down again, and said, "Well, after the college entrance examination is over, if Liao Min really doesn't get into a suitable school, let her come over here, and I'll call Dean Zhou. Ask him to recommend a suitable training class, and we will take the exam next year... Do you think it will work? Even if she can barely pass the promotion line next year, we can put her in it no matter how good we are, it's better than now It's better to have nowhere to use your strength?"
Liao Liao blinked a few times, and couldn't help but raised his hand to cover his forehead. He looked ashamed and muttered, "But...Er Min is actually not very suitable for making music."
After a pause, she said, "I guess even if you arrange a training class for her, she still won't pass the exam!"
Li Qian was taken aback when he heard the words, and immediately slapped her on the butt angrily, "Then you still want to send her to the music academy?"
Liao Liao turned over and sat up, aggrieved and irritable, and said: "Actually, I think that Er Min's head and her mouth are the most suitable for her to do jobs that require lip service! But..."
Hearing this, Li Qian couldn't help thinking back to his relationship with Liao Min, and then his heart suddenly lit up, "That's right!"
Liao Liao turned to look at him, and asked puzzledly, "What's right?"
Li Qian grabbed the phone and handed it to Liao Liao, saying, "Call your dad and tell him to let Liao Min come, and I will be your assistant for a while..."
Liao Liao was taken aback when he heard the words, and immediately acted like a furious tiger, "She will be my assistant? Is she assisting me, or am I assisting her? She will only do a disservice!"
Li Qian waved his hand, put the mobile phone over, and said at the same time: "Don't worry, listen to me, she is here, and she will be responsible for helping you deal with reporters, TV stations, newspapers, etc. This must be her specialty. She gave Sun Meimei to take it for three to five months, and she will be able to get started! Then, I will help her contact the teachers of our school, find her an off-campus training class run by the teacher, and let her take the exam next year. The school's production department!"
After a pause, he said emphatically: "Producer, a professional who is responsible for accounting and controlling the flow of funds, and at the same time running around soliciting sponsors and selling films! Liao Min can definitely do this!"
Hearing this, Liao Liao blinked and blinked, and the eyeballs rolled around several times.
"good idea!"
This time she picked up the phone without hesitation and started dialing.
