Chapter 846 "Big Fish" Trailer (Part 2)
After three songs of "Jackson Ye" entered the top 50 of the B chart, Universal Music Group held a simple celebration party for Ye Zhiqiu.
The reason why it is simple is that everyone knows that the current results are far from the peak of this album.
Universal Music's original plan was that the main purpose of the first EP was to open up the market and increase its popularity, and then make further efforts after establishing a certain foundation.
However, the current situation has exceeded everyone's expectations. As one of the most powerful old record companies, Universal's reaction was not unpleasant. After evaluation, it immediately decided to adjust its strategy.
No need to wait for the next album, now is the best time!
Use all your energy to help the songs "Jackson Ye" reach the charts.
As for how high it can reach...of course the higher the better.
Universal Music's expectation is that one song can enter the top 20, so it will be considered a goal.
As for the top 10 rankings, it’s not that Universal has never thought about it, but because it knows the current market too well, it doesn’t dare to have high hopes for it.
The higher you rank on the B list, the more intense the competition becomes, especially when the singers of the top 10 songs are all well-known figures.
Each of the top-ranking songs has more than 10 million listeners. Basically, there will be no sudden increase in ranking in a short period of time. Only the accumulation of album sales, streaming media playback volume, radio playback volume and other data will drive the ranking.
Pull up.
The production level of songs that can be ranked at the top of the B list is definitely high. However, this is only one of the necessary conditions. It does not mean that good quality songs will definitely have a good ranking.
It is no exaggeration to say that behind every ranking change among the top songs on the B list, tens of millions of dollars of interest are involved.
This includes brokerage companies, publishers, record companies, the bulletin board itself, etc. The water is very deep.
As an "outsider", Ye Zhiqiu wants to touch this piece of cake for his first album. I'm not saying it's impossible, I can only say it's not that difficult.
This is under the condition that he has the background of Universal Music Group.
Next, under the arrangement of Universal Music, Ye Zhiqiu began to participate in a series of interview shows and performances.
First, we visited several West Coast states such as California, Oregon, and Washington. This area is also an area where a large number of Chinese people gather, so we can achieve the effect of publicity.
Then, we will go to the central part of the country and plan to go to some larger cities for promotion.
As for some areas where the economy is not so developed, or where the Conservative Party is not necessary, again, their goal is to get as many fans as possible, not all of them.
For three consecutive days, Ye Zhiqiu participated in 6 activities.
During this period, the "Ellen Show" recorded earlier was also officially broadcast, which once again added fuel to Ye Zhiqiu's popularity, and the rankings of the three songs further rose on the B list.
"Believer", No. 20!
"Yellow", No. 23!
"Numb", No. 25!
The highest ranking song is still "Believer", followed by "Yellow" which has risen strongly, surpassing "Numb" from the same album.
More and more media are reporting on Ye Zhiqiu. Some exclusive interviews that previously required Global Network to use connections or pay money to participate in, now invites are coming in like pieces of paper.
During this period, a small episode occurred.
A certain media exposed news about Ye Zhiqiu's relationship on the Internet, and the title was very eye-catching.
[Late night tryst! Popular singer Ye Zhiqiu from China is suspected of confirming her relationship with the most beautiful rising star in the music industry, Swift!]
The article also attached a series of photos, but they were of the two chatting on the street after the music festival ended that night.
In the photo, Swift is smiling and talking to Ye Zhiqiu expectantly. The picture does look like a girl in love.
Regarding this news, Ye Zhiqiu was also very shocked, and then he recalled that it must have been secretly photographed that night.
I just didn't expect the other party to be so forbearing. It took a few days before he released the photos. He must have seen the right opportunity and was ready to make a lot of money.
Facts have proved that the other party was right. As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused a huge response, and the topic even reached the Twitter trend list.
The comments on Twitter are all kinds of things, including those who wish me well, whether out of jealousy or some other reason, and some who are abusive.
The news quickly spread back to China and quickly became a hot search topic.
In other words, Ye Zhiqiu's "emotional affairs" have always been a hot topic among domestic netizens.
With previous experience, netizens have become immune to such incidents. They understand that the few photos of chatting alone are far from real, but there are many who urge him to speed up the "win glory for the country".
What? What do you think Yu Caiwei should do?
Just right!
I don’t know how many fans in China are still heartbroken over the fact that Yu Caiwei was taken down by Ye Zhiqiu. In the news about Ye Zhiqiu, they are the ones who make comments like "Knife in hand, kill Ye Gou".
Although Universal Music suggested that this may be a way to increase exposure, there is no need to rush to clarify.
But Ye Zhiqiu was not interested in this. Based on his understanding of a beautiful woman who seemed reasonable but was actually arrogant and jealous, maybe if this news spread, she would actually come to the United States in a hurry.
Of course, there is a high probability that they still refuse to admit it, but use it to participate in activities, travel, etc.
And in the long run, whether you can become popular or not, what you lack is definitely not the exposure you can get from gossipy news.
It would be fine if it were true, but if you plan to create a positive image from the beginning, there is no need to actively apply this label to yourself.
The numbers exchanged between the two parties came in handy. For this reason, Ye Zhiqiu made a special call to Swift and stated that he would explain to the media.
On the phone, it sounded like Swift didn't care about the news, and even expressed some disappointment.
After handling this matter, Ye Zhiqiu returned to California.
Here, he was invited to participate in an exclusive interview with a well-known music radio station - "Contemporary Pop".
Ye Zhiqiu has participated in many exclusive interview programs, but this is the first time to do so on the radio. The main reason is that the popularity of radio is so different between China and the United States.
Walking into the broadcast room with Lu Peng, who was acting as his assistant, Ye Zhiqiu met the host of this show.
A black man wearing a sweatshirt, with dark skin and two rows of dazzling white teeth when he smiled, was named Harold.
"Hello, my friend! Ye!"
Harold came forward to say hello very enthusiastically, and after a few words of greeting he said quickly.
"Ye, the songs on your new album are so excellent. You are the second Chinese superstar I know."
"So, do you know Fanglong?"
Chapter completed!
