Just as Lin Ping had expected, the sales volume of the album had only just started to soar. The sales volume of the album easily broke the million mark in two months, and then continued to rise. After a month and a half, the sales volume of the album broke through two million in Asia, becoming the sales volume of a heavenly king. The growth rate did not slow down at all, and it was on the verge of breaking through three million.
The recording industry was shouting that the wolf was coming. Hai Die was laughing. Lin Ping alone had taken up more than 30% of the record sales in the past few months. Other singers could no longer avoid it. A typical singer's sales of two to three months 'worth of records were almost coming to an end. They had bought what they needed to buy and would not buy the rest. However, Lin Ping was different. He was a newcomer. A newcomer started from scratch, so he was not like an ordinary artist. Fans were all fixed. If you wanted to buy, you would have bought it long ago. The market for newcomers was gradually expanding. The process might be very slow, and the sales cycle of the album would be extended. However, most newcomers would only have about 200,000 to 300,000 copies, and they could basically be considered the king of newcomers back then. Therefore, it didn't matter even if the sales cycle was extended to half a year. It wouldn't have much of an impact on the entire record market, but Lin Ping was like a monster. He played a triumphant song right after the album was released. They were getting closer to the sales of Heavenly Kings and Queens. If it was only one or two months, everyone would have pushed it back and endured it. However, after reaching the sales of Heavenly Kings, the sales did not show any signs of drying up. Instead, it became more and more intense. Moreover, it had been three months and there was no sign of it ending. They really could not wait any longer. If they waited any longer, the losses would be too great, and it would also greatly destroy their original plans.
In the end, he could only bite the bullet and release the album. Other than some Heavenly Kings who already had a strong fan base and whose album sales were only slightly affected, the sales of many A-list singers 'albums were not ideal. The sales of newbies and second-and third-tier singers were even worse. They were extremely miserable. This made Endo's record company wary of Lin Ping. From the moment Lin Ping released his second album, they would intentionally or unintentionally ask about the release date of Lin Ping's album. Try to avoid his sales time.
As of November,"Fairy Tale" had sold a total of 2.5 million copies. Among them, 1.2 million copies were sold in mainland China, 300,000 in Hong Kong, 400,000 in Taiwan, 100,000 in Japan, 50,000 in Han, and 450,000 in Southeast Asia. What Lin Ping did not expect the most was that Japan and Han could sell 150,000 copies as well. Although they were both countries that belonged to the Greater Chinese cultural circle, they were different from places like Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Southeast Asia where there were many Chinese people. The language of both sides was the biggest obstacle. Generally, Chinese singers who wanted to make a name for themselves in these two countries would usually release Korean and Japanese albums. Chinese albums were generally not popular. As a newcomer, Lin Ping was able to sell 150,000 copies in these two countries, and it was a Chinese album. However, it was impossible for Lin Ping to publish a Korean or Japanese album. Although his brain had been developed unprecedentedly, it was not difficult for him to learn those bird languages, but Lin Ping was not willing. Learning English, which was useless in the past, was already a headache. Now, it was even more useless to learn Japanese and English. Stand aside.
The sales of 2.5 million copies of the album brought Lin Ping five million in revenue, which made his wallet a lot bigger.
Other than the album, there were also huge gains in publishing. After the first volume of " Stellar Transformations " was released, the second volume was released. The market was almost out of stock. It took several reprints before it was finished. The sales of the two volumes combined exceeded four million, far exceeding the sales of many well-known authors 'books. The publishing world could not help but exclaim, could it be that online literature had really risen overnight? Was orthodox literature going to succumb to the tyranny of online literature? For a moment, it felt like smoke was rising everywhere. In fact, it was just an illusion. It was an illusion built on the strong sales of "Stellar Transformations". In reality, online literature had not risen as much as they had imagined. If online literature wanted to truly rise to the point where it could compete with traditional literature, it still had a long way to go. The most important thing was that it lacked a powerful output platform. Traditional literature had a publishing house as an output platform, but online literature lacked such a platform. Although online literature could also be published, compared to traditional literature, most of the emerging online literature works were not superior in terms of style and depth. Moreover, they did not have a wide acceptance base. Therefore, although online literature was very popular on the Internet, only a small portion of them could be published. Compared to traditional literature, it was not worth mentioning.
The most important thing for the rise of online literature was to solve the problem of the output platform. This problem was only solved a few years later when the online novel website represented by Qidian rose up. Online literature finally had its own position. In this position, online literature was able to dominate with its unique characteristics. Just like how online literature could dominate here, it was still far inferior to traditional literature after publication. Traditional literature was equally difficult to achieve here. To use a popular phrase, it was like falling to the ground!
The arrival of " The Stars " brought a new driving force to the novel world, which had been somewhat silent due to the decline of traditional Wuxia. It was a completely different model from Wuxia. When Wuxia was still proud of their lightness skills, Xianxia could already walk on a sword and travel millions of miles in an instant. When Wuxia was still a master who could casually smash a piece of limestone, Xianxia could already cross mountains, cross seas, and soar through the sky.
Reading novels was a pleasure. Watching the main character do what he couldn't do was already considered a fantasy in the era of Jinyong and Ancient Dragon. However, in the New Era, the release of " Stellar Transformations " allowed people to see what true fantasy was. As the pinnacle work of Interstellar Xianxia," Stellar Transformations " had a complete cultivation system. From the cultivation world to the immortal world to the divine world, every world had a complete system, unlike the usual martial arts novels that only focused on the plot. As for the cultivation system, it was unclear. Moreover, the Xiantian realm, which was extremely awesome in martial arts novels, was only the beginning realm in Xianxia novels.
It had a more imaginative storyline than martial arts novels, a more complete cultivation system, a more straightforward language, and a fresh feeling that no one had ever tried before. This made it popular among young people as soon as it was released!
I have something to do today, so I'll update it early. Sigh, the collection growth is very slow. Everyone, please give me some collections and tickets! I don't want to fail again because I don't have enough collections!
