Thank you very much for your vinyl record, "Argentina Don't Cry For Me" I listened to, and Ms. Evita would say "Argentina Don't Cry For Me" before she died. I used to think that I was protecting Ms. Evita , but now looking back at what I have done for more than 50 years, I just guarded my dream.Now that the dream is fulfilled, it's time to pursue other things.

Aguero, the former administrator of the Mrs. Peron Memorial, left on September 2024, 9]

……

"Wan Guo Yi" swept the world, and Japan and South Korea, where strong purchasing power broke out first, because the purchasing power of physical records in these two places is very rare in the world.

"On Earth" was awarded Song of the Year at the Space Shower Music Awards and DL Single of the Year at the Neon Gold Disc Awards.

"IF.YOU" is on Earth, and BIGBANG won Gaon.Chart.K-POP.Awards Gaon.Chart.K-POP.Awards Gaon.Chart.K-POP.Awards July Music Department Singer of the Year Award. Those who know a little bit of Korean should know that this award is to recognize the number one music source every month.

The conclusion is that the two songs are also very popular in their home market, adding to Chu Zhi's popularity.

In the South Korean market, the album sold 64 copies on the first day.

On the neon market, the album sold 688.7 thousand pieces on the first day.

A good start.

A big hit.

"I finally snapped up 11 albums. I like the cover of "Wan Guo Yi" very much." Ai Li became a professional idol by starring in Chu's MV, and she has gained a firm foothold in the entertainment circle.

In the past, I could only buy two or three records at most, but now I have a lot of small money and can buy even-numbered records.

The cover that Ellie is talking about looks red from a distance, but when you look closely, it is superimposed with red face outlines. These face outlines come from self-portraits of fans from various countries. They were collected on the Homeland APP and Jujia APP on the eve of the album's production.

"Language genius, creative ghost, angel man, fuse to prevent human suicide, human puppet, Asian king, this is Chu Dian." Ai Li said a long list of adjectives.

Carrying a bunch of albums and running back, there will be a face-to-face meeting later, so hurry up. She squeezed out time to buy albums during the half-hour intermission of the event, and asked relatives and friends to help line up.

Not long after Ellie left, a big incident happened at the Maruzen bookstore she went to. Originally, there was not much stock, and someone bought 80 of them in one go, and the crowd in the line immediately talked about it, accusing this person of being very rude and causing trouble to others.

The man's reply: "You bunch of slobs, the bookstore doesn't even stipulate that I can't buy [-] pieces, so why are you talking?"

"If you have the ability, you get up earlier, in front of me, and behind me, which means you and I are weaker and slower than me. What qualifications do you slobs have to accuse me?"

"Not only do I want to buy 80 pieces, but I also want to buy 20 more pieces to make up 100 pieces. What can you do with me?"

Originally it was just a verbal accusation, but this person was so domineering, he ignited the hot-tempered male fans in the queue behind, and started to use his fists.

Those who bought a hundred pieces held their heads and bowed like hedgehogs, their movements were smooth and smooth, and they shouted: "Cowards, you only dare to challenge me with a group of people, but will I be afraid of you? There is no way you can defeat me."

An extremely familiar scene, I believe anyone can guess who the "murderer" who caused the above turmoil is.

That's right, ever since Ojima Sueka had a goal in mind, the whole person was much happier, now facing his father's reprimand, making him kneel down and admit that he has cerebral palsy or something.

Sueka Ojima doesn’t care about it at all, his idea is “you say it, you just say it, anyway, you don’t have a few years to live, let you talk about a few more years”, even if this kind of thinking is very filial, it is also against ethics , but it did make Ojima live a more comfortable life.

The scene of record stores in South Korea is more lively than that of island countries. Fortunately, the marketing department has made arrangements long ago, and no one disturbed them. No crowding or stampede accidents were caused. It is better not to have such man-made disasters anyway.

But it has really caused traffic congestion, especially near Itaewon in Namyongsan District, Seoul. Even if three teams of traffic police are dispatched, it will not work. Although Itaewon is not a deadly commercial street like Myeongdong, the record store Most of them gather here.

["I clearly got up at seven o'clock and queued up, but even so, it took half an hour before I bought "Wan Guo Yi". I never thought that there would be so many professors. Don't they all attend classes and study?"

At about 9 am on September 17, Seoul time, South Korea, the Itaewon business district in Yongsan District caused serious congestion.According to the latest news from the South Korean traffic command department, the congestion accident has caused a blockage of more than 9 kilometers of roads, and thousands of cars have come to a standstill.

The reason for the congestion is that Chinese artist Chu Zhi’s new album "Wan Guo Yi" is on sale. The last time the music industry had such a grand occasion was at the end of the Han River Miracle in the 90s. A single person made history reappear for a short time, which is the erosion of mainstream culture by star chasing culture. .

Chu Zhi is a concentrated expression of star-chasing culture, and his influence in South Korea is the epitome of his influence in Asia. ] - "Chosun Ilbo"

It was directly the headlines of the serious media in South Korea. I still remember that the artist who received this kind of treatment last time was Li Junxi who was hammered by the prosecutor Pu Laoyao.

It’s normal to think about it. The other six are the official languages ​​of the United Nations. Only Japanese and Korean are added. Isn’t it exciting?

The Arab world is different. There are 22 countries that use Arabic. In terms of economic strength, the top four are Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Egypt and Qatar.

Originally, Chu Zhi’s popularity was limited to Qatar, but Ghazi invested heavily in publicity, and the song "Late Autumn in Arabia" became the top three most searched on the Internet in 12 Arab culture countries.

"Ney, he used Ney."

"Arabic is not standard enough, but other than that, the lyrics and arrangement are full of Middle Eastern style."

"I originally thought that Chinese singers joined Arabic music to please the Arab cultural market, but after listening to the song—sorry, I apologize for my arrogance."

……

"Of course I have to apologize. How could my idol just want to please? What Arabic is not up to standard? It's too harsh, but it's good enough." Ghazi looked at the comments on the Internet. If you scold, you will scold back.

"Wan Guo Yi" has blossomed in all countries, and Chu Zhi's rich foundation has blossomed very beautifully.

Maoxiongguo's pop music circle feels a bit self-contained, and there are no local singers. Then you have to say how popular European and American singers are in Maoxiongguo, and there are no.

Chu Zhi's popularity was boosted by "Lullaby" and "Katyusha". Mao Xiongguo's publicity was concise and effective, "The author of Katyusha presents another Russian song", and the number of buyers was large.

"Lola, if you want to buy a vampire album, buy one for me," Vajim said.

What kind of vampire? Aurora was taken aback before recovering: "You are talking about Captain Zhi."

"It's him, that hider is a vampire among humans." Vajim said.

"It's rare for me to take the initiative to buy an album." Aurora said, she is indeed planning to go to the record store next to the Red Square to buy "Wan Guo Yi", and she is also a fan of the second opera.

Vajim said: "I like a Katyusha, just like I like to eat pickled cucumbers and pickled fat, and I like vodka."

It's not that I have any stereotypes of the people in Maoxiong Country, but I feel that those who like to drink drink with pickled cucumbers and pickled raw meat.

"Is that reimbursement for my gas expenses for travel?" Aurora said jokingly.

"Of course there is no problem with the gas fee." Vajim said: "Buy three more tickets, and let your Uncle Sergey and Uncle David reimburse you for the double fare."

Sergey and David are two business partners of his father, and they have a good relationship. It can be said that they have watched her grow up since childhood.

"They also want to listen to the album of Captain Zhi Zhi?" Aurora was shocked. In her impression, the two uncles' greatest hobby was hunting in the mountains and forests with shotguns.

"He has a strict plan, how to enter the market, and the vampire's plan is very successful, because his songs have touched the group of people with the most purchasing power." Vajim said: "The crowd in their 50s, even if his new song in Russian does not meet the To my taste, spending a little money for "Katyusha" is nothing, and your Uncle Sergey and Uncle David have the same attitude."

Each album of Mao Xiongguo costs about 1000 rubles (close to 20 yuan soft sister coins), and Aurora feels that it is not cheap, so uncles and aunts should be reluctant.

Aurora's family conditions are quite good, definitely in the top 5.00% of Russia, after all, she is the emperor of the underground world.But her girlfriend's family is not good, so she also knows something about the family, and the older generation is more economical.

The vehicle drove for half an hour and arrived at the record store near Red Square. Aurora could have bought it on Wildberries, because she was not in a hurry, but as a singer, she wanted to go to the record store.

Red Square is a famous square in the center of Moscow. It was the site of the military parade in the former Soviet Union. It is basically equivalent to Tiananmen Square in China. She is too familiar with Aurora, who grew up in Moscow, and she did not come to visit.

The record store [ПЕСНЯПРО], translated into Chinese is very strange, and Aurora is very strange, um——are there so many people buying physical discs in Moscow?

The people who lined up were all middle-aged people, and Aurora found an idea in her mind.

No way, no way, all these uncles and aunts came to buy "Wan Guo Yi"?

Aurora's idea was quickly confirmed, "Ah, I want a new album of Katyusha", "It seems to be called Wanguo, please give me one", "Excuse me, is this the line to buy Huaxia's album?" ...

A unified approach to the record store, placing best-selling albums next to the checkout counter and relieving customers of the same needs in the store.

Thinking of her father's words in her mind, Aurora understands the group of people with the most consumer groups.

The sales volume of 2.5 copies of Mao Xiong Guo can be a best-selling album. According to the rules recognized by IFPI, 5 copies of Mao Xiong Guo are called platinum albums, and "Wan Guo Yi" sold 7.1 copies on the first day.

The consumption power of middle-aged people should not be underestimated.

"I like the title of the album." Vadim got the album and played it at dinner. He was expecting nothing, but when "Night in the Suburbs of Moscow" came out, he returned to the feeling of listening to Katyusha for the first time.

It's like going back to childhood.

"This vampire understands Maoxiong Kingdom." Vajim commented.

For young people in Maoxiong Country, Spanish and English songs are more popular. On RussianTopHit (Weekly Singles Chart of Maoxiongguo), both the Spanish song "Despactio" and the English song "Thriller" reached the top in the album, " An Evening in the Suburbs of Moscow" is good, but most young people in Maoxiong Country will not play it on a loop.

But the people who have the right to speak in society love it very much. Don’t think that they are “old-fashioned” and can’t keep up with the trend. Thinking about it in another direction, they just insist on loving the songs of their era.

That feeling of dissonance...

Here it goes again, in the style of songs from the former Soviet Union.

A young man born in the [-]s wrote in the style of the last century, and it was still very good.

Opera 2 and Lullaby are normal humans.

"Katyusha" is not a normal human being, and many scholars wrote another song "Night in the Suburbs of Moscow" based on their research.

Divine Comedy is Divine Comedy everywhere. Even if MJ’s songs are not accompanied by dance, the quality of their own songs is T0 level. That day was the popularity of Flying Immortals, “Thriller” and “Beat.It” airborne the top 10 of the Billboard Top [-] Singles list

Even though September 9th is the Constitution Day of the United States, it is not a good day in the record market, so there are no competitors, and Chu Zhi's family dominates.

It is not an exaggeration to say how lonely it is to be invincible.

Evaluation of "Beat.It" on the Internet in the United States——

"I'm not in good shape and my body is out of coordination, so I will definitely not dance at this party, but when I hear this song, I unconsciously want to twist a few times."

"Its biggest advantage is that it allows you to drive a tractor and feel like you are driving a tank."

"I don't like Chu Zhi's previous albums, but I love this song. No man can refuse this song."

"The Huaxia singer once again defeated the American singer. This rock song is a song that can enter the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame."

and many more.

The results achieved were 46.4 copies sold on the first day in the United States. Chu Zhi broke the record of "The Man Stared at by God" and sent it directly to the sales record of a popular first-line singer in the United States.

"Wan Guo Yi" is really about to take off.

"Fuck, Fuck."

"Smelly shit."

I don't know why, every time I talk about Holman, I always swear, and sometimes I can't help but think, he raps so fast, is it possible that he practiced swearing?

"Why is "Thriller" so good, shit, why is my favorite funk song written by a Chinese." Holman was so angry.

But he really likes this song. In order to relieve his anger, Holman began to scold the singers who often play funk and disco music in the European and American music circles.

Holman is not racist, he hates Chu Zhi purely because of Leitron, obviously he became friends first.

Cursing for half an hour, a full half an hour, the parched Leitron stopped.

"Chu Zhizhen has come up with a shocking album. "Wan Guo Yi" actually has songs in eight languages. From the perspective of language, I am afraid that the album will really leave a name in music history." Lei Teang felt that those who cursed , will be slapped in the face...

Chapter 5 Word of mouth and sales are flying together

A double harvest of sales and word of mouth is good.

The sales volume of "Wan Guo Yi" on the first day worldwide was 377 million copies. Although Asia accounted for 207 million copies, this sales volume can be called the king of sales in today's black iron age of physical records.

Akanda Bell, Freeze, Lena Jackson and other American queens also paid attention to sales.

"The scariest thing about this yellow-skinned man is not that he sang songs in eight languages, but songs in eight languages, all created by him alone. Is there any way to invite him to sing?" Akanda Bell thought so .

"There are at least five million-selling singles in an album. Complicity and inconsistent emotions are shortcomings, but four songs are listed in the top ten of B100, which is enough to make up for the shortcomings." Jack Rui, the lead singer of the Freeze Man band.

"The Asian market is too big, he can earn hundreds of millions of dollars for this album, it's outrageous." Reina envied and hated.

"He is the illegitimate son of God, and the road to the music world is very smooth." Although Gibaldi was defeated once, he did not hold grudges, but he was happy to see Chu Zhixin being attacked by a group recently.

How much now—Ghibaldi is glad that he didn't say anything, Chu Zhi.

Gibaldi turned off the computer. She just browsed the official website of Billboard, the B200 album list, and the new album of Chinese singers also parachuted to the first place without any suspense. No.2 could not resist at all.

As for word-of-mouth, the theme and form alone killed 90.00% of Jiu’s albums in seconds, and there are eight languages ​​that have never been seen before or since.

In addition, songs in eight languages ​​are not enough, and they are also well received locally.

Randomly pick two mainstream media reports on the album:

"'Evening on the outskirts of Moscow' is another song that Chu Zhi created with a strong style of the former Soviet Union after 'Katyusha'. Alexey, the director of the Foreign Exchange Bureau of the Ministry of Culture, showed his love for the song unabashedly' While ensuring that the song has the style of the first half of the 20th century, it also guarantees the novelty of the song. The four phrases of the song are not the same in terms of motivation and development, and the melody turns are unexpected.'

It is reported that the first-day sales of the new album "Wan Guo Yi" easily won the historical sales champion. "—"Izvestia"

The News is the third largest newspaper in Mao Xiong Country by circulation. Just from the historical sales champion in the newspaper news, we can only see the tip of the iceberg of the influence of Chu Zhi's new song in Mao Xiong Country.

Yevgeny, a professor at the Gnessin University of Music, the first foreigner to write a thesis on Chu Zhi, has a new job.

"The impact of the three Spanish songs <Despactio>, <Sofia>, and <Danza.Kuduro> released by Mr. Chu Zhi's new album is like a red-eyed bull on the San Fermin Festival, rampaging in the Western cultural circle, without any native speakers. The Spanish song dares to be a matador, wielding a muleta to duel this ferocious bull.

As early as November last year, when the World Cup in Qatar opened, the song "Cup of Life" assisted in the opening ceremony showed Chu Zhi's understanding of Latin culture.

'He is not only understanding' commented Rodrigo, professor of guitar at the Royal Conservatory of Madrid.

The structure of parallel three and six degrees in harmony, the structure of 6/8 beat and major auxiliary second beat can be used smoothly.

Steel drums, maracas, marimbas, charango, conga drums, etc. These Latin music instruments are all sharp horns of bulls.

During the "Cup of Life" period, Chu Zhi's Spanish was criticized a lot, but now she speaks words like a native speaker of Spanish. It can be imagined that in order to learn Spanish, Chinese singer Chu Zhi must have devoted a lot of energy and brainpower, showing respect for national culture , This may be the reason why Chu Zhi is loved by people from many countries. "—"Abbess"

The two modes mentioned in the newspaper are the classic modes of Latin music. One comes from the Iberian Peninsula in Europe and has evolved into Latin "notes" after hundreds of years. Recognizable features.
