The Best Actor in the Vase of Meiyu

Chapter 1304 The So-called Superstar

Times make heroes——

From the moment Anson and Miles met to create the cello-inspired "Wake Me Up," things were off to a special start.

Then, the right time, the right place, and the right people.

Step by step, the band August 31st finally came to its current position, playing the role of pioneer and leader in the tide of the times.

One call will attract a hundred responses, and the momentum is huge.

And everything is just the beginning.

After the special deluxe edition of "Midsummer Midnight" debuted at the top of the Billboard album chart, it did not disappear like a shooting star, but instead showed long-lasting strength.

Seven weeks!

It stayed at the top of the charts for seven consecutive weeks, and its strong and powerful performance was in no way inferior to the sales of the original version, constantly refreshing the predictions and cognition of the music industry.

Who could have predicted it?
Not just one week, nor two or three weeks, but the special deluxe edition album of the band August 31st was able to incredibly achieve seven consecutive championships?
The momentum is not inferior to that of Norah Jones after she swept the four major awards at the Grammy Awards last year.

At this moment, people truly realized that the biggest winner of this year's Grammy Awards was not Beyonce, but the August 31st band.

It can even be said that he is the only winner.

There is no harm without comparison. Although Beyoncé won five gramophones at the awards ceremony, her albums and singles did not receive the Grammy effect.

Yes, there is some, but it is very limited and has no explosive power at all. It is even more insignificant compared to the performance of the band on August 31st.

However, the really cruel part is that the media didn't even mention it much, not because they didn't want to hurt Beyonce's pride, but because their attention was so completely on the band August 31st that they forgot about Beyonce.

forget.

Such cold and cruel words, yet they happened to Beyoncé.

It wasn't just any Tom, Dick or Harry, but Beyoncé, who won five Grammy Awards. This further highlighted the glory of August 31st and stole the spotlight with overwhelming force.

Both the original and special deluxe versions of "Midsummer Midnight" topped the Billboard album chart. The market is speaking, proving with practical actions that the general public's concern is not limited to the special deluxe edition of the band, and they are becoming die-hard and even fanatical supporters of the band.

The Grammy effect shines again!

If it weren't for Usher, the special deluxe edition of "Midsummer Midnight" would have stayed at the top of the Billboard album chart for a few more weeks.

Just like the singles chart, the album chart also has the situation of "August 31st Band VS Usher". This spring, the North American music market is their duo.

Usher's fourth studio album "Confessions" was finally officially released after more than five months of pre-heating with the first single "Yeah" and the second single "Burning".

Even Usher himself did not expect that the performance of the first two singles would be so outstanding that the album release date would be pushed back again and again, and the momentum continued to rise, finally exploding when the album was released.

The album "Confessions" sold 1.09 million copies in its first week of release, topping the Billboard album chart, breaking the single-week sales record for rhythm and blues albums and ending the seven-week winning streak of the special deluxe edition of "Midsummer Midnight".

Such strong sales performance directly exploded the entire North American market, and the glory of rhythm and blues continued to rise. Like the singles chart, the album chart was also dominated by Usher, ending the dominance of the August 31st band.

But to be fair, the possibility of the band ending Usher's "Yeah" pursuit of history on August 31st can be considered Usher's counterattack.

Despite this, the special deluxe version of "Midsummer Midnight"'s momentum of winning the championship was blocked by Usher; but the seven-week championship still made the album's cumulative sales exceed two million, writing an astonishing result.

Coupled with the fact that the original version of the album also boosted sales, the total cumulative sales of the album "Midsummer Midnight" are now approaching eight million, and there is not much left to cross the iconic threshold of ten million.

Moreover, it is worth noting that these are only the sales in North America, and the sales in overseas markets have not yet been included. If they are counted together, the global sales of "Midsummer Midnight" would have already exceeded 10 million, and are still continuing to climb towards higher numbers.

Such performance is unbelievable!
When people reacted, they realized Anson's momentum.

From the box office success of “The Butterfly Effect” to the all-around success of the “Midsummer Midnight” album and single, the former is a testament to Anson’s vision as a producer and his appeal as an actor, while the latter is a testament to Anson’s influence in the music market and his leadership as a young artist.

Superstar, no doubt.

In every aspect, Anson has surpassed Leonardo Dicaprio and Johnny Depp, who was favored by the Academy, and stands at the top of Hollywood.

vase?

So what? The objective existence of this influence and appeal is its trademark. All film companies, record companies and all aspects of the entertainment industry are flocking to it, and there is no end in sight to the vast momentum.

What do you think, college?
Indeed, this year's Oscars won a great victory, thanks to the sweep of "Lord of the Rings 3", a double harvest of box office and awards, and the ratings and word of mouth were all red, sweeping away the frustration of being entangled and pulled by the Grammy Awards. This also directly proves one thing:

Without Anson, the ratings are just as great!

However, without Anson, the ratings did not have an impact; but the reality is not that simple. Johnny Depp, who the Academy had high hopes for, also failed to spark discussion. The super high box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean" was not as exciting as expected after the Oscars.

In the movies, people like Captain Jack Sparrow, who is both good and evil and unpredictable; but in reality, Johnny Depp received an Oscar nomination but he always looks like a grassroots hero who was recruited.

Of course, there is no need to complain. In 2004, the authority of the Oscars was still trustworthy; but the heated discussions after the award ceremony also faded away. Johnny Depp that night was lost in the crowd and failed to spark heated discussions like Captain Jack Sparrow.

The award ceremony is over, and everything is over.

Just like the Grammy effect, there is also an Oscar effect.

It not only affects the box office, but also the subsequent heated discussion and the impact on the entire industry. Imagine that because the Oscars ceremony was moved forward, the summer season was also moved forward. This influence is absolutely unmatched.

However, what about this year's Oscar effect?
Calm and calm.

The noise of the award ceremony was like bubbles, which dissipated completely with a gentle blow, and the Oscars were forgotten in a blink of an eye.

Look at the Grammys and the craze for the August 31st band.

Sure enough, the old saying is right, there is no harm without comparison.
