Chapter 128: Crazy Earnings, Hot Album Sales

The Billboard HOT 100 list is an important list of popular music among the weekly newspapers published by Billboard Weekly.

Even looking at the scope of Europe and the United States, the Billboard HOT 100 list is also the most professional strength list!

In the late 1990s, when online music sales on the Internet was not yet popular, the Billboard HOT 100 list already dominated the European and American music scene.

The ranking method of its list is determined by BDS radio station and BIN small market radio station, whose sales account for 50%, 10%, and 40% respectively. After all, in the late '90s and early 2000s, physical album sales were an important indicator.

After 2010, with the development of the Internet and the weak sales of physical records, Billboard, as an important North American music chart ranking method, naturally changed accordingly.

Well, it's a remodel!

The proportion of physical sales indicators fell from 40% to 1%, and the sales of online downloads rose to 40%.

Whether in the 1990s or after entering the 21st century, the Billboard HOT 100 chart, as well as the Billboard-related radio charts, single sales charts, streaming media charts (not yet in the late 1990s), etc. 12 music The list is a target that many singers and music lovers are very concerned about.

The Billboard HOT 100 list is the most important list!

It is counted by Billboard magazine, which starts every Monday and ends every Sunday, and publishes a new issue the following Thursday.

Therefore, Eminem's new album "My Name Is" is not the album that will become the number one album of this issue of Billboard's HOT 100 chart.

However......

The new album "My Name Is" has sold millions of physical albums in just half a day, enough to surpass any album or artist on the HOT 100 list!

In other words, it is the uncrowned king!

At the same time, the title of the next issue of the Billboard HOT 100 list is also scheduled in advance!

HOT!

It's hot!

I have to say that the popularity of Eminem's new album "My Name Is" has completely swept the United States.

"Billboard" magazine gave the reason on its official website: "The sales of Eminem's new album are hot, and it has sold more than one million in less than one day, which shows the popularity of his album and breaks many media's false popularity of Eminem. bias."

"This newspaper and magazine believes that the album "My Name Is" will become the most popular music album in North America in 1997 without the participation of Jackson and Madonna!"

......

As soon as the report of "Billboard Weekly" came out, other authorized media and newspapers reprinted the report in the first time, and even directly fired Eminem's new album "My Name Is" to an explosion!

"California Entertainment News" said: "The hottest album of the year has come out, what are you waiting for?"

"American Music Weekly" said: "The strongest dark horse - Eminem!"

The "Los Angeles Morning Post" said: "The sales exploded? Yes, the physical sales of the album "My Name Is" are predicted to exceed 30 million sales by the end of the year."

......

The publication of news and entertainment newspapers has completely made those music lovers who are still in the wait-and-see stage unable to sit still, making them join the ranks of buying albums one after another.

However, the long queues in front of the major dealerships directly caused the hearts of latecomers to collapse.

"Oh my God!"

A girl less than 20 years old exclaimed: "I just slept a few more hours today, why are so many people queuing to buy."

The voice fell,

The people lining up around the girl also began to complain.

"Don't you know how hot Eminem is now?"

"That's right, if it wasn't for Tigress's class today, I would have skipped class and bought it early, and I wouldn't have had to wait in such a long line."

"Haha. You think too much. I came to line up a few hours ago, but I went to the bathroom on the way, and the number of people in line increased a lot. If I knew earlier, I wouldn't drink so much water today. ."

...

Things like this continue to be staged in front of dealerships across the United States!

All the channel dealers are simply happy.

These are green dollars!

Channel dealer Clauminy sighed: "I knew Eminem's new album would be popular, but I never thought it would be so popular."

Channel dealer Shirley Yang also said: "Only today's sales are not much worse than the release of Michael Jackson and Madonna's new albums."

The next day, in the morning.

Golden Dawn Music.

Zucker sat in the office of the music director Domino, looking at the sales statistics in his hand, and sighed again and again.

"It's incredible, it's incredible! In one day, the sales of new albums across the United States exceeded 1.5 million."

Zhu Ke was amazed again and again.

Domino smiled and said: "Boss, in terms of first-day sales, in recent years, only Michael Jackson's first-day sales of 2.04 million and Madonna's first-day sales of 1.79 million can surpass this figure. I can now say for sure. , Eminem will definitely become the new king of North American pop music this year!"

"Um."

Zu Ke of course agreed, his eyes narrowed into a gap, showing how happy he was.

It's all dollars!

In the original time and space, that is, in 1999, the annual sales of Eminem's new album reached as high as 30 million, and it was the record sales champion of that year. Moreover, this is still an excellent result achieved by Eminem himself without the slightest fame, and the music production company behind him, West Coast Music Company, did not fully support it.

And now!

Eminem is now the overall runner-up of the first season of "America's Got Talent" and the first person to break the black monopoly of Rap;

the pursuit of the media;

thirst for music lovers;

Jin Shuguang's music director Domino's campaign;

And Zhu Ke, the boss of Jinshuguang Entertainment Group, with all his support, how can the sales be bad?

Therefore, as soon as the new album came out, it exploded!

......

Time is fleeting.

A week later, Eminem's new album "My Name Is" has accumulated sales of 8.5 million copies, surpassing Madonna's previous album's highest weekly sales of 8.45 million copies, and became the highest single-week record sales in 1997.

As the boss, Zhu Ke, of course, got the news right away, even when he said that Jin Shuguang Music's employees will receive bonuses this month.

The album "My Name Is" is priced at $15.99.

This price is a price that is more pertinent and echoes Eminem’s popularity. You must know that the unit price of the albums of American first-line singers is usually around 15~22 US dollars, and the price of lower-end records is also around 10 US dollars.

In other words, in just one week, the cumulative sales of the album "My Name Is" reached as high as 135 million US dollars!

This number will definitely inspire anyone!

Of course, the $135 million in sales in the first week does not represent pure profit. There are also channel dealers, store dealers, tax, manpower, publicity expenses, etc., and this dollar must be shared.

But even so, the profits of Jin Shuguang Music are considerable!

And, remember! This is just one week's sales of the album "My Name Is", and the next benefits are completely imaginable.

What the hell!

Don't want to know, after thinking about it, Rao is Zu Ke was also taken aback.

"It's no wonder that at a time when Internet music was not yet popular, music giants such as PolyGram, EMI, Universal Music, and Sony Records were all worth billions or tens of billions of dollars in market value."

"In addition to the value of song copyrights, the annual sales alone are enough to drive anyone crazy!"

Sake red noodles, wealth and silk moving people's hearts.

"It's no wonder that Sony Records and a number of music companies are going to work together to smear Michael Jackson's reputation. As far as the number and value of the copyrights of the songs he holds, they are completely forcing the major companies to play his rhythm! "

Zucker sighed with emotion.

【Ding dong! 】

[Congratulations to the host, getting a new future reminder. 】

Suddenly, Zu Ke was shocked.

The system is huge, you have been pretending to be dead for a long time, and finally bubbling.

For the powerful effect of the system, Zhu Ke is still looking forward to it, and if nothing else, it is just "SpongeBob SquarePants". It made Zucker's profit, not to mention other news?
