I am the savior of China Entertainment

Chapter 57 Making History

On December 20th, when the winter solstice is approaching, Fantasy Studio held a grand celebration banquet to celebrate the big sales of the album EP of Li Hyuk and Guns N' Roses.

"Our studio has only been established for a few months, but it has achieved quite brilliant results.

"Secret Garden" EP has sold 80 copies, "Jay" album has sold 110 million digital albums in the mainland market, and 21 physical albums..." Fan Nuoxuan announced these results excitedly.

All the employees in the studio applauded and cheered. Good performance means high bonuses and high year-end benefits. Naturally, everyone is very happy to have a small amount of money.

Fan Nuoxuan continued: "At the same time, we successfully launched the Guns N' Roses band, and also successfully launched Lee Hyuk, one of the most successful singers of the new generation. Everyone has contributed to these.

Our goal next year is to continue to release new albums and promote new singers, which requires the continued efforts of all colleagues. "

Fan Nuoxuan is better than Li Hyuk in painting big cakes, so Fan Nuoxuan usually draws big cakes.

Seeing the impassioned speech of the second boss, Fan Nuoxuan, the three little girls of SHE clapped their hands excitedly.

Because the agent, Sister Xia, has made it clear that next year Fantasy Studio will focus on promoting SHE, and the three girls waited for the opportunity.

After the pie painting was over, the celebration banquet officially began. This time the celebration banquet was not only for Fantasy Studio itself, but also for the two major shareholders of Penguin and Bilibili.

The person in charge of the QQ music business department, Sammi Cheng who had negotiated with Li Hyuk before, approached Li Hyuk with a wine glass: "Congratulations, you have become a big singer."

"Thank you, and thank you QQ Music for your full support." Li Hyuk clinked a glass of juice with Sammi Cheng.

"Seriously, do you plan to continue to expand the studio, such as turning the studio into a company?" Zheng Xiuwen tentatively asked.

"Aren't we doing it now? Huang's Records will soon be merged into Fantasy, and it will be a matter of course to become a record company at that time." Li Hyuk said.

"What I mean is, continue to expand investment and become a comprehensive entertainment company, Penguin can help." Zheng Xiuwen tempted.

Li He shook his head and said: "I'm sorry, my original intention of starting a studio was to make the music I like without being restrained, and I didn't intend to develop in an all-round way."

"That's a pity, you are very talented." Zheng Xiuwen sighed, as if she really thought of Li Hyuk.

In fact, the people at Penguin believe that if Li He is handed over to Penguin to manage, Li He has now become an idol no less than Yuan Hua, Lu Xiaohan, Tao Tao Yixing and other returnees.

And it was born in the local area, which has an additional promotional advantage over the four returnees.

But unfortunately, Penguin only took a stake in Fantasy Studios, and did not acquire Fantasy Studios.

Moreover, Fantasy Studio, which is merging Huang's record company, will only grow in size, but will not be merged into Penguin as a whole.

The Penguin family has a big business, so they can forcibly buy Fantasy Studios. If the two bosses, Li He and Fan Nuoxuan, disagree, they can also use channel blockade and other means to force them to submit.

But it’s no longer possible, the way of plagiarism is no longer feasible, and the higher-ups are very strict, and it is impossible to cut off the channels.

Physically, there are Huang's channels and Starlight Records' channels. In terms of digital, QQ Music still faces competition from platforms such as NetEase Cloud.

For fear of being blocked, people will run to the enemy, which is not worth the loss.

So the only thing Penguin can do now is to wait for the opportunity, and continue to invest money into Fantasy Studio, and also provide resources for singers and artists under Fantasy Studio. The variety show resources of the three girls of SHE are from Penguin.

There are disadvantages to introducing a large company. If you are not careful, it is easy to turn the customer into the main business. But in many cases, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

With the escort of a large Internet company, the promotion work of the studio went smoothly.

As long as Li He and Fan Nuoxuan ensure that the Fantasy studio is under their absolute control, they can work with Penguin with confidence.

The copyright issue is also due to this aspect. Li Hyuk's song copyrights are all in his own hands. Just in case someone gets sick one day and kicks him out, it is easy to handle the song copyrights in his own hands.

This is not unfounded worry, but planning for a rainy day. Similar things have happened countless times in previous lives or in this world.

The sales of the "Jay" album in mainland China are booming, successfully bringing tens of millions of profits to Fantasy Studio, and Hong Kong and Taiwan, which don't care much, also contributed a lot of surprises.

"Mr. Fan, this is the result issued by Hong Kong and Taiwan on the 25th." The assistant handed the latest report to Fan Nuoxuan.

Fan Nuoxuan opened it and was a little surprised: "That's not bad. There are actually [-] copies sold on Treasure Island, and [-] copies on Hong Kong Island."

The market capacity in Hong Kong and Taiwan is not large, and the combined sales of 11 copies is already very good. The most important thing is that these sales are physical album sales, which are included in the actual sales.

Since the rise of the digital music era, local rules have been different. In Japan and South Korea, digital albums will not be counted as album sales, but the popularity of album singers will be counted.

The sales of digital albums in mainland China will actually be included in the overall album sales. Take Li Hyuk as an example, the digital sales of "Jay" album are 110 million, and the physical album sales are 21. Then the overall album sales are 131 million, which is called actual sales.

For the same example, Yuan Hua's single "You Are Beautiful" released at the end of June has sold more than 3000 million singles, but this does not count as his album sales.

Obviously, a song cannot be counted as an album, otherwise Yuan Hua would have surpassed Zhang Xueyou and become the single sales champion in the Chinese music scene with this song alone.

At present, the album sales record holder in the Chinese music scene is the song god Zhang Xueyou. The single album sales of "Kiss Goodbye" reached 2700 million copies, and the cumulative number of albums released exceeded 1.4 million.

Looking at the data, it seems that it is not very impressive, but this is the sales of physical albums, and it is genuine,

If piracy is counted, the total album sales of Songshen might exceed [-] million...

How about Yuan Hua's single?There is a set of complex formula calculations in the bulletin board, which converts the number of times played by users into a certain amount, which is converted into the sales volume of an album.

The specific calculation formula is too complicated. To put it simply, the number of songs between 1200 and 1500 is counted as the sales volume of an album.

Looking at it this way, the sales volume of Yuan Hua's "You Are Beautiful" is only 2 to 2 album sales, not as good as a fraction of "Jay".

And this kind of sales is called irrigation sales, and the Recording Industry Association will not count it in the singer's total album sales.Therefore, in 2015, the album sales champion in mainland China is undoubtedly "Jay", which scored 131 million copies.

And this is not the end, the data is still accumulating.

In addition to the sales in Hong Kong and Taiwan this time, Li He unexpectedly entered No. 2015 in the 40 album sales list of the World Recording Industry Association for the first time, and is the only Chinese singer in the top [-].

As soon as this news came out, the entire Chinese music scene became a sensation. For many years, since the 90s, this is the first time that a Chinese singer has entered the top [-] album sales charts of the World Recording Industry Association.

Unknowingly, Li Hyuk made another piece of history.

Moreover, because of the strong album sales, many international record companies have noticed Li Hyuk.

The distribution channels of Fantasy Studio are limited to mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan regions are distributed by Starlight Records and Penguin, not to mention the vast overseas markets.

Knowing this situation, well-known major record companies such as Sony Records and Warner Records all came to the door, intending to cooperate and obtain the overseas distribution rights of the album.
