Starting with Super Girl, he began to train the Chinese entertainment industry.

Chapter 124: The second major is full of trump cards, it's insane!

You're the first one to notice me.

The more expressionless a person is, the sadder they are inside.

So when I trembled, refusing to shed a tear

"You'll hold me close to your chest, feeling my heart aches."

"..."

roommate:???
The singing was like the class beauty's whisper in their ears, or like the goddess of Beijing Sport University gently caressing their chest muscles.

The very first sentence sends shivers down your spine.

When the chorus came on, Wu Xiaotian's roommates couldn't sleep anymore and all looked in the direction of the singing.

At this moment, Wu Xiaotian had a Walkman hanging from his waist, his hands on his hips, looking like Wang Yousheng guarding his spoils.

"Holy crap, Xiao Tian, ​​what song is that?"

"Could it be Jane Zhang's new album?"

"You secretly went to buy albums behind your dads' backs?"

"Hehe, you guys usually call me Xiao Tian and I don't take it seriously, but if you still call me Xiao Tian now, I won't accept it~"

Wu Xiaotian pressed the pause button, walked to the center of the dormitory with his hands behind his back, pulled out a chair and sat down, "Call me Brother Tian!"

"Oh my god, hurry up and start singing! I'm so impatient!"

"That's right, you know we're all fans of liangfen (a type of cold noodle).

"Hurry up, Brother Tian."

Wu Xiaotian smugly pressed the start button.

I want to see the farthest place.

"Let's dance and talk about dreams."

"..."

At this moment.

Wu Xiaotian really wanted to accompany Zhang Liangying, but he was afraid his bull's mooing wouldn't suit the occasion, so he mooed, "Moo..."

When the song ended, the five roommates were no longer sleepy at all; they had already surrounded Wu Xiaotian.

"Brother Tian, ​​hurry up and play the next song!"
“That’s awesome.”

"It has to be Liangying, her songs are just right."

"This seems really inspiring! If all the other songs are like this, then how amazing must the first single, 'As You Wish,' be? Shen Qing is amazing."

"The farthest place I can see, what a great song title! It feels like Shen Qing wrote this song specifically for 'As You Wish'!"

"The third poem is called 'Preface to the Poems Composed at the Orchid Pavilion'!? Is it in a Chinese style?"

"Wait a minute, let me tell you first, isn't your Brother Tian handsome?" Wu Xiaotian still wanted to show off, saying he'd play the "Preface to the Orchid Pavilion" later...

But his five roommates immediately thwarted his attempt to show off.

Five burly men pinned him down, and the room leader snatched the Walkman from his waist. "Haha, serves you right for showing off. Now the initiative is in my hands!"

The music starts~
The beautiful and simple melody of the erhu filled the room, instantly creating a strong sense of Chinese style.

"Practicing calligraphy by copying the Lanting Preface, one's running script flows like clouds and water."

"The door opens under the moonlight, your footsteps are light and delicate, just like my own."

"Too busy to capture the beauty of your face, though a thousand-year-old monument is easy to rub."

"..."

Wu Xiaotian stopped making a fuss.

He and his roommates listened and praised him.

The more I listen, the better it sounds.

But his brow furrowed even deeper, a sudden feeling of "a wild boar can't eat fine chaff" washing over him—the lyrics were beautiful, but he couldn't quite understand them.
It's really well-written!

When the next song came, they understood it.

This is a love song called "Similar to Love," and the melody is amazing!
Lately, you and I have been feeling the same way.

It was something like love.

"On the same day, we discovered love, and we drew closer."

Wu Xiaotian: "Shen Qing's love songs are amazing! Holy crap, let's see what the next song is, the title track 'As You Wish'. The promotion has been so intense lately, I want to see what's going on!!"

……

While they were listening to the songs, a CD-buying frenzy was taking place all over the country. The boss, who had already sold out the first batch, suddenly found that another group of people had arrived.

"Boss, do you still have Jane Zhang's albums? I'll buy ten!"

"No more, no more, sold out."

"Buy more, boss!"

"The distributors are out of stock too, let's wait a few days."

"No way, aren't you going to stock up more? Zhang Liangying's new album is so popular, and you guys are actually..."

"Come on, you be the boss!"

This shortage of stock wasn't just happening at retail stores; even Dangdang.com and the primary distributors in various provinces were caught off guard. They wondered if Zhang Liangying could escape this curse, given the cooling record market and even Jay Chou's recently released album not selling as well as before.

The result was indeed a counter-trend rise.

The answer was only found when the owners of various distributors opened Zhang Liangying's CD and put it into their VCD players.

Every single song is a blockbuster, how could the sales not explode?

crazy!

This is insane...

Shen Qing, did you bring out all your stockpiles?
So you're not going to live like this anymore?

……

Major media outlets were among the first to receive the album. By now, they had listened to all the songs and could only describe their feelings with one word: shock!

Shortly after.

News reports appeared on various websites.

Some newspaper editors who received the CDs from Taihe Wheatfield the night before had already written their articles last night and published them in the newspaper this morning.

[Zhang Liangying's second album is a complete bombshell! A phenomenal album is born!]

The ten songs included in "As You Wish" are songs that most singers could only dream of performing in their entire lives, but Zhang Liangying sang all ten at once, and Shen Qing treated her like a princess.

[With sales exceeding 60 copies on its first day of release, "As You Wish" is poised to break new records for domestic album sales.]

[Queen of Pop - Jane Zhang]

Many fans of Liangfen (a type of Chinese cold noodle) were stunned when they woke up to a barrage of news reports and rushed to the music and video store without even having breakfast.

But when they arrived, they discovered that the album the owner had kept for himself had been bought by someone else at a high price.

At this moment.

Many record store owners are playing new songs on cassette tapes in an effort to attract more music lovers.

……

Qingying Studio.

Zhang Liangying sat on the sofa in the living room. The warm and bright morning sun shone on her, but it still couldn't ease her tension.

The album has been released for two hours, so how are the sales?
The first battle report hasn't arrived yet, and right now, no one in the studio knows what's going on.

Zhang Lu and Chen Liang were frantically calling distributors across the country, but all the lines were busy and they couldn't get through.

Even calling Dangdang.com was unsuccessful.

Zhang Lu put down the phone, frowned, and said, "Could it be that sales are so booming that the phones of distributors in various provinces are ringing off the hook?"

Chen Liang nodded: "That's most likely the case. Yingjie's album has the potential to be a bestseller."

Zhang Liangying took a sip of coffee and looked at Shen Qing at the window.

at this time.

Shen Qing was making a milk latte, leisurely and not at all flustered.

He wasn't worried about album sales at all.

Shen Qing was 100% confident that those ten songs would be a huge hit!
Although the internet and piracy were already very developed in the second half of 2006, people's habit of buying CDs, which they had developed over many years, could not be changed in a short time.

The reason they didn't sell well was simply because the album was of poor quality. They just cobbled together ten songs; how could that possibly work?

Consumers aren't stupid; if your product is bad, of course no one will buy it.

But the songs in "As You Wish" will make all potential consumers buy without hesitation!
If "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky" isn't enough, how about "Preface to the Orchid Pavilion"? If that's not enough, there's also "The Farthest Place I Can See," "Sweet," "The Next Dawn," "Singing in the Trees"...

If that's not enough, how about adding "Similar Love", "Preference", and "Falling Leaves Return to Their Roots"?

If that still doesn't get the money out of your pocket, then we'll have to unleash the album's most powerful hit, "As You Wish".

With ten measures combined, I don't believe anyone can resist spending!

After Shen Qing finished making the coffee, he took a sip and said with a faint smile, "My bottom line for this album is 400 million copies, I'll aim for 450 million, and if I have to grit my teeth, I'll try for 500 million..."

Zhang Lu was stunned.

He walked over to Shen Qing, touched Shen Qing's forehead, and muttered, "You don't have a fever, so why are you talking nonsense?"

Zhang Liangying, Chen Liang, and the other staff members of Taihe Wheatfield all stared blankly at Shen Qing.

This statement is no less significant than Jack Ma saying: "I have no interest in money!"
Who can sell 500 million copies? Do you think you're the next Richie Jen? Uh... it seems like the quality of Liang Ying's "As You Wish" isn't much worse than "Too Softhearted," right?
In 1996, Richie Jen's "Too Softhearted" sold 2500 million copies across Asia, but this number includes both legitimate and pirated copies.

Based on a 1:4 ratio of genuine to pirated copies, the sales volume of genuine copies should be around 500 million.

This sales volume is unbeatable.

If you can surpass this number, you will be the number one person in Chinese-speaking world.

And this is enough to illustrate one point—Zhang Liangying has become a sensation across Asia.

But Shen Qing also knew that this was too difficult.

After all, the title track "As You Wish" is a patriotic song, which may not be very popular in East Asia and South Asia.

But it doesn't matter, the mainland is the foundation.

As long as her albums sell well in China, Jane Zhang is a shoo-in for the top four best-selling albums in the Chinese music scene, with Richie Jen, Jacky Cheung, and Dave Wong ranking in the top three.

Just as the clock struck eleven, a phone call came in. Zhang Lu answered and excitedly shouted, "What?! It's a hit!? Sales have exploded!"
