Treasure Island 1992, starting from the Four Little Heavenly Kings

Just when Romani didn't want to hack a classic record, in other parts of the United States, countless media people also listened to Chen Qiming's new record.

Just as Romani considers this record to be a classic, many people with professional music knowledge agree.

Among them, there is an existence that countless people across the United States are crazy about.

Michael Jackson.

The fact that Chen Qiming's "Lonely" landed at the top of the radio charts caused a huge stir in North America.

A large number of media and music industry practitioners concluded that Chen Qiming had squandered the on-demand data.

These news spread like wildfire and were not only known to a large number of people, but even Michael Jackson heard about it.

Compared with the jealousy of other North American singers, Michael Jackson is one of the North American singers who knows Chen Qiming best because he often travels to Asia.

Michael still remembers when he went to Asia, the streets were full of posters of Chen Qiming and the songs were played.

It can be said that in Asia, even he, the world's pop king, can only be said to be on par with Chen Qiming in terms of popularity, but cannot say that his ability is superior to him.

Because of this, he didn't quite believe that Chen Qiming would swipe votes.

In addition, add a little bit of mentality of treating them as opponents.

Michael Jackson bought Chen Qiming's record as soon as it was released.

When he finished listening.

Michael Jackson was silent.

From his point of view, some of the songs on this record are actually more of a mouth-watering genre.

But equally, there are songs in it that he likes very much.

"my heart Will Go On".

He liked this song very much.

In his opinion, this song is definitely a song that can be called a classic among the classics.

In addition, from the perspective of popularity, he also feels that Chen Qiming's record may cause a storm in the market.

So, after listening to this record, Michael fell silent.

If he valued Chen Qiming before, it was mainly because of his popularity in Asia.

So now, this record makes him realize that Chen Qiming may be more than just Oriental Michael, if Chen Qiming continues to maintain the level of this record.

So, the position of the most popular male singer in the world is probably...

……

If a song wants to become popular quickly, it can be said to be simple or complex.

Perhaps in this era, the spread of songs may not be as fast as in the dream future.

But as long as there are enough resources, it is actually very simple to become popular.

Not only does Chen Qiming attach great importance to the new album "Eternity", but Warner Records obviously also sees its potential.

So after the record was released, all kinds of promotional resources were immediately devoted to this album.

Each of the fifty states in the United States has independent radio stations.

Some of them have monopolies in their states, and some are competing against other stations.

There is no doubt that these radio stations, which have considerable influence in their respective states and cities, have received management from Warner Records.

Radio promotion is undoubtedly the most important direction for record promotion in this era.

If print media promotion determines the lower limit of a record, then radio promotion is an important channel that determines the upper limit of record sales.

And when Warner Records spent money, found connections, and used various methods to promote Chen Qiming's new album by major radio stations, this classic record that Chen Qiming and Warner valued finally exerted its due power.

Several new songs in Chen Qiming's new album immediately became known to the audience after being promoted.

Of course, because the United States is a multi-ethnic country, cultural differences also lead to different popularity of different songs among various races.

For example, "Lonely", this song has a very strong rap color, so it is most popular in cities with large black populations such as New York, Chicago, and Detroit.

Then there is "My Heart Will Go On". This country music is most popular among middle-aged people, but not so popular among teenagers.

Among them, the most popular song is undoubtedly "As Long As You Love Me".

This song is very popular among teenagers, and students from major colleges and universities are the audience of this song.

Teenagers are undoubtedly the largest group.

Unlike middle-aged people, they need to give up all kinds of entertainment in order to live.

The age of seventeen or eighteen is the time to be rebellious and pursue fashion culture.

Obviously, Chen Qiming's album is an album that leans towards this group.

With a huge youth group, the song "As Long As You Love Me" has become the first song in Chen Qiming's album to become popular.

After the record was released, the song was widely sung across the United States.

The song shot up the radio charts at an insane rate in every state.

In just four days.

On the radio charts in 27 states across the United States, Chen Qiming's "As Long As You Love Me" has reached the top five on [-] charts.

Among them, in several states, this song directly reached the top position.

This song's popularity is extremely fast.

Before countless media people who were preparing to criticize Chen Qiming could react, the song quickly became popular across the United States.And if the song becomes popular, it will naturally drive record sales.

Many people who heard a song on the radio went to a video store to buy the record.

This is also the main role of radio propaganda.

Radio is not the online music platform of dreams.

The songs on demand on the radio are not just what you want to hear.

During this period, you need to call the radio station, and then the radio host will play the songs one by one according to the order on demand.

It can be said that listening to songs on the radio is very troublesome. It is so troublesome that many people only use the radio station as a channel to pay attention to news and new songs.

As long as they find good songs on the radio, listeners will go to offline video stores to buy records.

Compared with the lack of freedom of listening to songs on the radio, it is obviously more convenient to buy a record yourself and put it in your walkman to listen to whenever you want.

Therefore, when "As Long As You Love Me" climbed rapidly on the radio charts, many listeners had already taken action and went to the video store to buy the record.

In addition to the audience of the previous "Lonely", the World Championship theme song "Dream It Possible" and the red zone theme song "My Songs Know What You Did in the Dark".

In just a few days, the sales of the album "Eternity" skyrocketed.

From 21 on the first day, 27 on the second day, 31 on the third day, 35 on the fourth day...

A week flies by.

When the second week came and the Billboard Hot [-] Singles Chart and Album Sales Chart were announced, the whole of Europe and America suddenly became excited.

Billboard Hot [-]:

No. 90 third place: "My Songs Know What You Did in the Dark" (red zone theme song) - Chen Qiming.

No.70: "What Are Words" - Chen Qiming.

[-]: "Dream It Possible" (World Championship theme song) - Chen Qiming.

No.30: "Lonely" - Chen Qiming.

No.20: "One Love" - ​​Chen Qiming.

No.19: "My Heart Will Go On" - Chen Qiming.

Tenth: "As Long As You Love Me" - Chen Qiming.

When the list of the Billboard Hot [-] Singles Chart was announced, the entire North American media was instantly speechless.

As many as seven songs from a single album entered the charts at the same time, and he was an Asian.

What is this concept?
You know, the singer with the most songs on the chart at the same time in a single album is Madonna, with thirteen songs.

And Chen Qiming had seven songs on the list at the same time. Although it did not break the record, it succeeded in the top five, just at fifth.

If it had been a white person who had accomplished this feat, it probably wouldn't have caused such a sensation.

But, but Chen Qiming is a yellow race!He is also a foreign singer from China.

In the United States, where yellow people are generally discriminated against, Chen Qiming's achievement is nothing short of miraculous.

In addition, this is not the only achievement of Chen Qiming's album.

Airborne into the top 10!

Yes, it is airborne into the top 10.

This is definitely an achievement to be proud of.

Because at present, those who can reach the top 10 are all the top singers in the European and American music circles.

For example, Michael, Madonna, Queen, etc. are all famous all over the world.

And now, there will be one more person among them, a Chinese.

Not to mention other things, with this achievement, even if Chen Qiming retires tomorrow, when his fans discuss his historical status in the future, Chen Qiming will definitely have a pivotal position.

At the very least, in the history of the Chinese music scene, he has pushed his historical status higher, and is even enough to be compared with those in Europe and the United States who are leading an era.

And it's not over yet.

on Billboard's album sales chart.

Chen Qiming landed in third place with 180 million in a single week in North America.

my darling!

An Asian has managed to land in the top ten of the North American sales list, and it is still the terrifying third place.

This data not only caused a sensation in North America, but also caused an uproar in Asia on the other side of the ocean.

Over in Hong Kong and Taiwan, the media collectively bombarded with headlines. The front pages of all media were all about Chen Qiming's bulletin board data.

Chen Qiming’s fans now almost understand the awesomeness of Billboard.

Therefore, when the Billboard data was transmitted to Hong Kong and Taiwan, his fans would directly take to the streets in large numbers to enthusiastically celebrate his achievements.

Among them, the most noteworthy thing is that in Singapore, a second-generation rich man named JJ Lin spent a lot of Singapore dollars to buy a large number of fireworks, which turned Singapore into a sea of ​​fireworks that night.

After the album was listed on the Billboard singles and sales charts, the European and American media collectively lost their voice.

Those newspapers that were still slandering Chen Qiming quietly retracted articles that slandered Chen Qiming one after another.

Even the European and American singer who originally said that Chen Qiming was cheating on data, when asked by reporters again if he insisted that Chen Qiming was cheating on data, he held it in for a long time and finally answered like this:
"I admit, there's something about this Asian!"
