My wife is in my arms

Chapter 1632

Affected by the strike by foreign screenwriters' associations.

The recording of the third episode of "Voices from Abroad" was postponed, but the second episode was not affected. The two days after the recording was completed, the promotion phase began, and the second episode was broadcast.

Seeing Zhang You take first place again.

Many foreign singers have turned their attention to Zhang You.

at the same time.

Johnny Depp's bet to kiss a donkey's rear end also went viral, and just as Zhang You had expected, the donkey's image was used by many foreign netizens to create parody pictures, which remained popular.

Then came the release of the song "Try" on the international music app AiMusic. Within seven or eight hours of its release, the song had been purchased more than four million times.

Because of the airing of these two episodes, Zhang You, who performed outstandingly on "Voices Abroad," has begun to come into the audience's view. Many viewers can now call him by name, unlike when they first came here and could only call him "Zhang."

"What's wrong!?"

Seeing that Zhang You had returned from his run early in the morning and his face looked rather pale, Li Xiaohong asked him.

"My little apprentice cried again because she missed me."

Zhang You sighed softly.

When she first arrived, the girl cried. Zhang You thought she would get better after a while, but he didn't expect her to cry again during their recent phone call. With this kind of personality, she definitely won't be able to go out to work in the future. She'll have to stay under his nose and can only find short-distance jobs where she can go out during the day and come back at night.

"It will only take two or three months."

Li Xiaohong, however, didn't seem to care.

"They're just kids!"

Zhang You laughed and said, "It's also because I've raised him well. You saw how he played the violin the other day. He's only been learning the violin for a short time, but I estimate he'll be quite proficient by the end of the year at the latest. Then he can start learning the cello."

As for Xiao Zishan, she's going to film a movie.

Zhang You didn't take it seriously at all; he's always thinking about things! Last year he wanted to sing, and this year he wants to film a movie. He really does things on a whim. After breakfast, Zhang You, as usual, helped singer Liu Fei take care of her child.

Liu Fei, on the other hand, continued watching the video of Li Ran playing the violin.

She saw the video a couple of days ago when Zhang You was watching it, so she asked Zhang You to send it to her. Technically speaking, Li Ran's playing was fine, but the soundtrack for "500 Miles" couldn't be played well with just a single violin. At most, it would just sound similar. But even so, her little apprentice was already very impressive.

It didn't take long before I was able to play the music according to the sheet music on my own.

"Your eldest apprentice has an outstanding voice!?"

I watched for a while.

Singer Liu Fei looked at Zhang You curiously and asked.

"You look a bit like me"

Zhang You replied with a smile, "However, I didn't deliberately teach her singing techniques. I just wanted her to look at the sea more often, hoping she could use her voice to interpret the essence of the sea."

"What's the explanation for this?!"

Liu Fei didn't quite understand.

"There is no fixed formula for the voice. Compared to singing skills, I always feel that if you can use a single voice to make people feel the artistic conception, that will be better than any singing technique. I'm not sure if it will work, I'll just treat it as an experiment."

Last year, Zhongxia went out to sea on Zhang Da Meinu's private yacht. As for this year... Zhang You wasn't too sure. In short, he would have to wait and see.

If her performance satisfies her mentor, then she can pursue an international singing career. Otherwise, she can focus on developing her career domestically.

If it doesn't work... there's nothing the Sweetheart Queen can do, because all the Sweethearts are very pretty. Zhongxia has grown up a bit better than when we first met, and her skin is fairer, but she's still a long way from being considered pretty.

Therefore, the only option is to consider following a similar path to that of a talented young pop star.

"Let her figure it out on her own, aren't you worried about her pronouncing it wrong?!"

Liu Fei reminded her.

"They're studying at the Shanghai Conservatory of Music, after all. If they can't even teach pronunciation correctly, then I'll have to cause trouble for the school."

Zhang You made a joke.

As a music academy in China, not all graduates can make it in the entertainment industry, but vocalization is the most basic thing. Even though many professional singers will explore their own vocal techniques later in life, they still know normal vocal techniques. Zhang You is not worried about this aspect.

Upon hearing Zhang You's words, Liu Fei chuckled twice.

immediately.

Zhang You heard Li Xiaohong call out to him. He turned around and saw Li Xiaohong covering her phone with one hand, asking him, "Fruit Sister wants to invite you to dinner, what do you say?!"

"don't go"

Zhang You refused without even thinking.

There was nothing good about the meal; all they wanted was to buy songs from him, but Zhang You had no intention of selling them, so they couldn't be bothered to maintain this meaningless social interaction.

Several days have passed since the release of "500 Miles" after the recording of the previous episode of "Voices from Abroad," and as of last night, the song had only been purchased a little over 15 million times.

It was much less than Zhang You had expected. In fact, judging from the popularity of the first episode of "Voices from Abroad," it should have been very popular because of its strong reach. However, it only received a small number of views on iMusic's overseas platform, which is completely inconsistent with its reach. But there's nothing that can be done about it. iMusic is a top music platform in China, but abroad... it's just a third-rate music platform.

This level of purchase volume is already quite impressive.

Conversely, the English song "500 Miles" seems to have only sold a moderate number of copies in China. It was released two days later than its international release, and only sold four million more copies. While that seems like a lot, it is still less than the number of Chinese songs sold in China.

English songs are not mainstream in the country.

The estimated purchase volume is at most 35 million. Any higher... it's not impossible, but it's certainly not easy.

That's just how the entertainment industry is; it's a fast-moving consumer good. Whether it's a song or a movie, the most profitable period is right after its release or premiere, thanks in part to promotion. Once that period is over, profits drop.

However, releasing through two channels will definitely make a lot of money.

After a while.

Li Xiaohong walked over again and said, "Ms. A senior executive would like to discuss a collaboration with you..."

"Returned."

Before Li Xiaohong could finish speaking, Zhang You interrupted her, adding, "Except for the CB TV program recording, I've turned down all other offers from whoever comes to me."

I hung up the phone.

Li Xiaohong walked over and asked, "Are you really planning to continue cooperating with the iMusic platform? Songs like '500 Miles,' if sold on two other foreign music platforms, would easily see a third more sales, if not double."

There's no need for that.

Zhang You replied, "Li Jin'an talked to me about this last time, and I agreed at the time. Besides, I've always had a good working relationship with the Ai Music platform. Since the cooperation is good, let's continue to cooperate. In short, if you get a similar call again, just turn it down for me."
