Chapter 205 Fairness
However, the price announced immediately poured cold water on many fans.
"Love" is a limited edition record, with only 999 copies sold worldwide, priced at US$1,000 each.
This is a very expensive price for most people. Compared with the commemorative edition that only sells for 50 US dollars, the limited edition only has a few more videos that can be watched for free and an autograph, but the price is doubled. ten times!
No matter how much they love Luo Quan, this price can definitely calm down most fans.
However, among fans who like Luo Quan, there are still people who are willing to spend 1,000 US dollars to buy an autograph, and there are definitely more than 999 of them.
After all, the consumption income levels of ordinary people in China, Japan and the United States are not the same, and their consumption concepts are also different.
However, for the sake of fairness, Luo Quan made a request to the company before agreeing to sign, that is, the sales of the commemorative album must be completely random.
Naturally, Universal followed suit and opened a link at the bottom of the record sales webpage. Fans who want to buy limited edition records can click on it, enter their personal information, and wait until the system starts the lottery.
Anyway, there are only 999 places, and the drawing starts tomorrow night, which doesn’t give fans much time to prepare.
However, fans who really like Luo Quan will not miss this news. Regardless of whether they have the ability to buy or not, they happily go in and make it more difficult for others to win.
Even if you are really qualified to buy, you don’t have to actually buy it. Just click to give up the qualification. However, this qualification will be bound to personal information as soon as it is drawn, and it will be authenticated again when making payment, so there is no transfer. Sales and purchase qualifications.
It can be said that Luo Quan has achieved enough fairness for his fans by doing this.
There are many convenient things in this world that can be obtained by spending money. The rich will always enjoy much more high-quality treatment than the poor.
This is something that is understandable. After all, the gap between rich and poor is an objective fact. If people have money, there is nothing wrong with enjoying more, as long as it is not dirty money.
However, Luo Quan has never been used to it. Regardless of whether he has money or not, at least everyone is equal in terms of qualifications. Anyway, the purchase time limit is very long, and the payment must be completed within three months.
For most adults who already have stable jobs, they can still afford it if they bite the bullet and save some money.
If it's a student party, there's nothing you can do.
In short, this event, which looks more like a leek than a fan welfare, did not receive many bad reviews after it was launched. On the contrary, many fans complained that the limited number of 999 was too small, and they could not get it at all based on their luck.
Of course, these are just minor episodes, the real highlight is still Luo Quan’s record sales are still exploding.
In less than a day, the 1.5 million albums on the shelves have been sold out. In addition, there are still as many as a million paid orders waiting to be processed on retail websites.
It has sold nearly three million copies on the first day, which is the only one in the world of pop music!
The millions of sales of "Rite of Passage" in Japan are pre-sales accumulated over many days, so they cannot be included in the record.
But this time "Live" actually broke the world record for first-day sales of records.
The previous number one record was set by the late pop king Danny Knier in the last century and this century, selling 1.07 million copies on the first day of release.
After that, no other singer could achieve such a result, until Luo Quan appeared, which more than doubled this record!
Just twenty-four hours after the physical album of "Love" was released, the sales figure was fixed at 2,673,210 copies.
The Guinness official website also quickly posted an article, which certified the world record for first-day record sales:
"Chinese singer Luo Quan's new album "Love" sold 2,673,210 copies on the first day of release, breaking the record of 1,074,336 copies set by Danny Knier!"
Guinness officials also contacted Luo Quan later and said that the certificate would be delivered to Luo Quan by express delivery in a few days.
Most people who want to apply for a Guinness World Record have to take the initiative to contact them. The reverse situation is still very rare, which shows how popular Luo Quan is now.
She has exceeded 50 million Twitter followers and has become a top player in the European and American entertainment circles.
In addition, many fans are urging Luo Quan to quickly open an account on Instagram, and a large number of Instagram users are waiting to follow her.
Ins is actually the WeChat Moments in China, where you can post photos, text, and share your daily life. Twitter is more like Weibo. Most people post their own thoughts or promotional works on Twitter.
If you want to see what a celebrity’s life is like, you have to go to Instagram, so most celebrities have more fans on Instagram than on Twitter.
For example, Lyon rarely uses Twitter. He only posts about work matters, such as his schedule, where he will hold road shows next, and so on. He only has more than 60 million followers.
On Instagram, he often posts some selfies of himself, life at school, interesting things about hanging out with Seifert, and photos with his family. He has as many as 80 million fans.
Of course, no matter what it is, the number of fans has water in it. The only difference lies in the amount of water.
Fans have increased abroad, but they have not fallen behind domestically either.
The number of fans on Weibo has almost reached 30 million, and the number of fans on Station B is also heading towards 4 million.
As a regular up user, Luo Quan, who has rarely posted a few serious videos since returning to China, is still gaining followers at a rate of tens of thousands per day. If he continues to do so, Luo Quan is likely to become a fan of Station B. The most up master.
After becoming famous, I have more fans and more things to do at work.
In addition to countless media interviews and invitations to various events, there are also overwhelming endorsement ads.
From some second- and third-tier daily necessities to the world's top luxury brands, they all immediately sent messages to Luo Quan's Google mailbox, wanting her to be their spokesperson.
Of course, there are many levels of spokespersons, some are regional spokespersons, some are global spokespersons, and some are brand spokespersons.
However, Luo Quan already has enough coffee spots at the moment, and the international brands that come to her are all Asia-Pacific spokespersons at first.
Some even promise that after becoming a spokesperson, the products of the endorsed series can be used for free until the end of the contract. If it is a lifetime endorsement, then it will be used for a lifetime!
However, no matter how tempting these promises were, Luo Quan rejected every one of them.
It’s not impossible to consider some domestic brands, but forget about foreign brands.
Some time ago, there was a luxury goods product that was suspected of using yellow models for QS, which caused a huge backlash in the country, and even the domestic celebrities who endorsed the brand were also implicated.
Even if these celebrities terminate their contracts with the brand immediately, they will inevitably be scolded on trending searches, and some are even scolded more than once.
It sounds a bit innocent, but who makes you have anything to do with this brand? When people can’t find a target to vent their anger, they naturally can only point their fingers at those people they can directly touch.
There is no place to reason for this kind of public anger. Even someone like Luo Quan who likes to "reason" still had a high-intensity confrontation with a bunch of trolls when he was blackballed by the entire Internet.
But in this case, she had no other option but to apologize and terminate the contract. If she spoke in a slightly harsh tone, she would be standing on the opposite side of public opinion. People who do such things will generally not end well.
Such risks will definitely exist as long as you sign a contract with a foreign brand.
Although the probability is not high, sometimes, some people are just confused. Even if they say something, it is a lose-lose situation, but they still say it; it is obvious that there are some things that can find a better solution, and he just wants to give it to the Chinese people. Adding obstruction and creating disputes that should not exist.
Luo Quan didn't want her reputation to be tied to someone who might suddenly turn into a pig-headed person in the future, so even though she knew that if she signed a contract with these top luxury brands, her fame and fortune would be greatly improved, she still recommended them all. Dropped, including brands such as Chanel, Dior, and Givenchy.
In fact, this is not the first time they have contacted Luo Quan. They had already approached her once when she won the title of the most beautiful in the world at the beginning of the year, and offered her more money and benefits every time, but Luo Quan declined them all politely.
This time is no exception, but with some different reasons and a gentler tone.
After all, he is also one of the top brands in the world. If his tone is too harsh, he will offend people.
Although Luo Quan is popular, he is not a good person at all. Maintaining quality and politeness is the basis for a person to get good evaluations from others. This has also been Luo Quan's code of conduct.
Of course, she will also have an emotional side under certain circumstances. For example, there are always a few days every month when she will lose her temper uncontrollably, and her words will be as angry as if she had eaten gunpowder.
She had never had such an emotional side before, but since time traveling, she has always encountered such distress.
Fortunately, whenever it comes, she will try not to surf the Internet, read some books, listen to music, and drink sugar water. As the saying goes, out of sight, out of mind.
Of course, in most cases, her temperament is relatively mild, and she treats others with courtesy first. This is why people who have been with her speak highly of her.
In addition to endorsements, many companies have also made invitations to sign contracts with her.
They were all big domestic companies, including professional entertainment companies, film companies, and music companies. The prices they offered were also very high, much higher than the signing fee Zhou Yangwen had given her.
But there is no doubt that these were all rejected by Luo Quan.
The restriction of the system is still there, and it cannot be bound to any entertainment company.
Judging from the time, this restricted Luo Quan's development and forced her to choose the most difficult path to make a name for herself.
But from now on, this restriction has made her truly the freest star in the entertainment industry.
She can decide her schedule, endorsements, and activities as she likes. She can accept them if she wants to, or reject them if she doesn't want to. She also has a lot of time every day to do what she likes, even if it's just lying in bed and playing with her mobile phone to kill time. , and will not be criticized by anyone.
Moreover, you don't have to worry about all the troubles caused by the company's operations. You manage all your social accounts by yourself, without looking at anyone's face.
Now Luo Quan is really grateful to the system for giving her this restricted task.
If it hadn't been for this mission that led her to hastily sign a contract with a certain company, and now she is extremely popular, she would have been forced to sign many endorsements and star in many movies that were purely good and bad money.
Isn't it because these short-sighted contract companies are eager to express their popularity that there are so many celebrities who have suddenly become popular, and they are squeezing out all their potential step by step?
It often takes a long time to build a reputation, but sometimes it only takes an endorsement or a movie to collapse.
In his previous life, he had seen too many farces in the entertainment industry and witnessed too many rookie kings' disgrace. Luo Quan understood far better than anyone how important it was to maintain a good reputation.
In short, her current image has been completely established at home and abroad. She is talented, outstanding, humble and low-key, and there is almost no solid evidence.
As long as you keep it up like this, it is not difficult to become a first-line star that is well-known by most netizens, not to mention becoming the kind of national goddess in Japan.
When the time comes, she will receive a few good-quality movies, complete the tasks given by the system and receive mysterious rewards, and her personal panel attributes will reach a higher level.
Luo Quan’s current personal panel attributes are:
Fame: Moderately famous (worldwide)
Appearance: SSS
Singing skills: S+
Acting skills: A
Creation: A-~infinity
[Star Binding: Sarah Brightman (Seven Days)]
Specialties: Iron Lung, Skin Improvement, Piano Specialization, Guitar Specialization, Opera Specialization, Eight Specializations, Cooking Specialization...
There are all kinds of weird potions in the backpack, such as plumping up the breasts, plumping up the breasts, and slimming the face. They can all be related to beauty, but not many of them are really useful.
These are the mysterious rewards given by the system after completing tasks or upgrading.
This reward draw has a certain probability of drawing the best items, such as attribute improvement cards, permanent star binding cards, etc., but Luo Quan is not very lucky. He has drawn no less than twenty times so far, and has only drawn one attribute. The upgrade cards and others are either potions of little use or star-bound cards with a limited time limit.
But now, her level has been improved again. Every time she increases her fame level, there will be rewards drawn and given away, and this time is no exception.
This time, because the improvement was relatively large, the system directly gave her three chances to win the lottery.
"Let me, Kangkang, draw something good this time." Luo Quan rubbed his hands and entered the lottery page with great anticipation.
