Hollywood Hunter

Chapter 802: Pacifiers everywhere

A small encounter between the Versace store and Bryce Lewisson did not allow Erin Lauder to appreciate the craze triggered by the three singles that Simon suddenly released.

The Igreat Portal officially listed the MVs of three singles at 8 o'clock in the evening on the east coast of the United States, because it is the front page headline, and it is also the peak period of website traffic in the evening. It takes less than an hour and the cumulative number of plays of the three songs. It broke through 53 million, and the topics around the three songs were quickly transmitted to major online forums, social networks and other interactive platforms, directly making the three singles a popular label on major platforms.

Immediately, the topic once again spread to traditional media.

After discovering this news, many radio stations, newspapers, and television stations began preparing relevant drafts overnight. So, early in the morning on Monday, the news that Simon Westero released the new song became social news that all media are discussing.Even the "Washington Post", which has always been prudent, couldn't help but lament in a related article on the front page, "Simon Westeros has the ability to create miracles at will".The professional music media even admired the praise of three singles.

The founder of "Rolling Stone" Jane Winner rarely wrote music reviews of three singles overnight, and published it on its official website and personal blog for the first time. In addition to professional analysis and extreme praise, Jane · Wenner also predicted that these three singles would not only form a trend, but also provide endless inspiration for many later creators.

From 8 pm on April 2 to 8 pm on April 3, it was released for 24 hours. Because of the rapid fermentation, the cumulative number of plays of the three singles reached a record-breaking 739 million.Based on the current total number of global Internet users, this means that on average, every Internet user listens to these three singles more than once.

The same is true.

A astrophysics girl who has more than 300,000 followers on Facebook by sharing the common sense of the universe frequently posted a blog post that afternoon: "Hidden in the dorm room and circulated three new songs of Simon all day." Love it! I wake up and realize that it is already evening, it seems that today is Monday, it seems that I missed something, but, well, go to his "Black Hole Physics."

A simple post was accompanied by the popularity of three singles, and unexpectedly formed more than 50,000 comment queues in the blog post reply.

"For Simon's new song, go to his "Advanced Mathematics"!" "For Simon's new song, go to his "Electronic Structure Theory"!"

"For Simon's new song, go to his "Contemporary Sculpture"!"

"For Simon's new song, go to his "Quantum Mechanics"!"

"For Simon's new song, go to his "Migration of Architecture"!"

"..."

Therefore, it can be seen that most listeners listened to the three singles more than once.

According to official statistics from Igrid, of the more than 70 million users who visited the Igrid portal worldwide on that day, the average person listened to each single more than 3 times.

It is just because of these three songs that Eaglet has once again experienced a big technical test in data centers around the world.

On Monday night, when the release of the 24-hour broadcast statistics was completed, Igrid also publicly stated through his official Facebook account that he would apply for a Guinness record for "Young and Beautiful", which has the highest 24-hour broadcast volume among the three singles.

Among the three singles, the only "Young and Beautiful" with lyrics has reached 275 million views in 24 hours. The second place is "Blizzard" whose name was changed by Simon, with 241 million views. Finally, the Russian girl Yulia · Shure Higgina's solo "Bach's Last Day" has also reached 223 million views.

There is no doubt that this is a sudden audio-visual entertainment carnival.

Simon didn't initially want to make a profit from these three songs, but just gave a rough idea, and then let the Daenerys Records and Eaglet team run it themselves.

The three MVs that seem to be released for free really did not bring direct profits.

Indirect benefits are eye-catching.

After Igrid gave up the IE browser homepage bundling, the brand new IE browser officially provided two modes, the traditional opening is the "homepage" mode and the brand-new "blank" window mode, which is said to be "blank", In fact, it includes a default Google search engine box and six through-car windows.

Whether it is the replaceable'homepage' or the six through-train windows in the'blank' mode, it has become the object of every effort by major Internet companies.

After voluntarily giving up the monopoly, the competition of several other portals and other types of online platforms directly caused the Igrid portal to lose more than 80% of the portal share, and the recent market share of portals has fallen to 73 %.

Although Simon’s personal strategy was to throw out the portal, a doomed business model of the Internet 1.0 era, to distract competitors from betting, even quietly laid out search engines, social networks, and e-commerce abandoned the homepage in Igret. After the monopoly, they all achieved or even exceeded their expected performance targets in the competition for the new software homepage and the six major through trains. However, the rapid decline in the market share of the portal website still worried the senior executives of Igrid.

Everyone is staring at the portal and continuing to decline, it is likely to affect the upcoming Igret IPO.

Now, it's just the heat brought by the three singles that were released suddenly, which largely re-consolidated the status of the Igrid portal in the hearts of the majority of Internet users. From the release of the three songs on Sunday evening, 24 hours, It is roughly estimated that more than 3 million users reset the IE browser homepage as the Igrid portal, which is equivalent to increasing the market share of the Igrid portal by 2 percentage points.

This is the main aspect.

The three singles once again let other competitors see the importance of the content. Microsoft's MSN portal and AOL's AOL portal and other potential competitors all held a special meeting on Monday to discuss this issue.

On the other hand, because the MVs of "Blizzard" and "Young and Beautiful" respectively used the classic mixed-cut scenes of "DC Movie Universe" and "Hollywood Actress", Igrid Portal added directly under the two MVs Link to the Amazon mall video sales page for all related videos.

Because "Suicide Squad" is still being released, there are a total of 7 DC movie universe films involved.

In addition, the "Hollywood Actress" classic shots are much more mixed, involving a total of 39 movies of 27 Hollywood actresses from the golden age, mainly from the former Universal Film Library and MGM Film Library. And the best-selling films produced by Daenerys Entertainment in recent years, from the early Vivien Leigh, Elizabeth Taylor, Greta Garbo, Marilyn Monroe, Sofia Rowland, Audrey Hepburn to the most recent Several years of Nicole Kidman, Julia Roberts, Sandra Bullock, Judy Foster and so on, everything.

7 DC movie universe films, 39 classic movies starring Hollywood famous actresses, not only sold separately, but also special limited edition combination packages, and also give very favorable limited time discounts and postage reductions, so the same is just 24 hours a day, the Amazon online store received a cumulative order of 9.17 million video cassettes, and sales reached 220 million US dollars.

The Amazon team originally predicted that the sales of DC movie universe films may be higher, because they are new movies in recent years, and the result still ignores the inevitable nostalgia for everyone. The first day of sales of 9.17 million video cassettes, such as "Gone with the Wind" ", "Rain in the Rain" and other old-fashioned films accounted for more than 6 million boxes.

Of course, it is undeniable that these old-fashioned films have higher discounts.

The DC movie universe is new, except for the 7 sets, the single purchase is still priced at $29.9, but the postage is waived for a limited time.

For other classic movies, the unit price is only $19.9 after discount.

For the studio, this is actually not a loss.

Many old films that have been released for more than half a century are now purely selling one piece and making one piece, and everyone knows that even if the price is $19.9, apart from the few video tape production costs, the profits obtained by the studio are also Very generous.

Although Eaglet did not publish sales data for a series of videotapes, relevant information was quickly circulated.

The media just marveled, but other studios couldn't help but talk.

The DC movie universe is just fine. In another "Young and Beautiful", Daenerys' entertainment preference is too obvious. The shots used are all films of Daenerys and MGM, many The movie is just a beautiful female lens, and it is very beautiful. On classics, "Roman Holiday", "Casablanca", "Comet Beauty", "Street of Desire", etc., are all classics that are enough to be included in the history of movies. For the Lord, they are also the pinnacle of their acting career.

However, these movies did not even get a single shot.

It's just shady.

One of Paramount’s vice presidents probably couldn’t help but complained directly on Facebook and caused quite a lot of discussion.

Subsequently, Amy Pascal, CEO of Daenerys Entertainment, also personally responded on her Facebook page, saying that the material editing time is limited. In order to avoid copyright disputes, Daenerys can only choose her own library and cooperation My partner’s related videos, and there are too many classic movies in Hollywood history, but "Young and Beautiful" is only more than three minutes, and it is inevitable to miss some classics.

Executives of other studios can only secretly'WTF'.

If Daenerys invites other studios when editing this MV, even if it is not a real benefit of selling video tapes later, it is just the name of the creator of Simon Westeros, and everyone will not refuse. .

Now, more than 9 million video cassettes a day.

It's just grabbing money.

However, think about it again, this is something that falls on you and probably will do the same.

Whether it's the Daenerys who swallowed Universal or the MGM who is actually controlled by Westeros, there are thousands of movies in the library, where there is still a mind to give the opportunity to others.

However, after seeing the other party selling video tapes, they were not reconciled.

As it happens, several other portals saw Igrid set off a trend with just three songs, and were equally unwilling.

There was demand on both sides, so contact began quickly in private.

Even if you understand, just like "This Man From Earth" that broke through the US$200 million box office mark in the past weekend, it lacks the talent of Simon Westero, lacks resources like Daenerys, and lacks Igreat. Platform, it is difficult for others to create the same miracle, but it is better to try than to watch.

How much can you fish a bit?

All in all, the three singles that Simon did not intend to make money at first were actually a very successful business operation.

Things don't stop there.

The success of the three singles has also made major record companies see the importance of Internet platforms for singers and record promotion.

The amazing result of 200 million views on a single song in a single day is simply horrible.

Many record companies have tried their best to find new singers in the charts, and they are not necessarily popular for months.

If you can use the Internet as a record promotion platform, you can imagine how the effect will be.

Other record companies haven't had time to move. Near the water platform, Daenerys Records has started to discuss the next cooperation with Igret.

Egret.

In the last one or two years, whether it is to launch movie trailers or conduct various live video broadcasts through the website, it has already proved the potential commercial potential of Internet video.

The three music MVs have achieved such dazzling success, and also made the management of Igerett determined to launch a special video website in advance.

The name is already up to the owner.

YouTube.

Of course, due to the current hardware and software technology and other reasons, the upcoming video website will mainly be based on short videos such as movie trailers, music MVs and current news clips. The duration is limited to 5 minutes, and external submissions are temporarily not accepted. , Mainly based on the self-produced content of the Westeros system.

In fact, this model seems difficult to Simon as a professional video website, and it can only be regarded as another content supplement by Igrid.

Content, content, content.

This is still an urgently needed resource for Internet platforms at this stage. Even more than ten or twenty years later, there will never be too much content resources.

In addition, the boss is too lazy to take care of it, and the subordinates will not ignore it, not to mention the three songs that have been so successful.

Seeing the success of the MV on the Igreat platform, Daenerys Records soon announced that it will release a single album of three songs before Easter on April 16.

as well as.

The online radio site Broadcast, which Igreat has focused on, will also list these three songs this weekend, the main purpose of which is to supplement the new product launch of Tinkerbair on Saturday, April 8.

The new product launch conference of Tincobair, which is scheduled to be held on April 8, will officially release the digital music player product with micro hard disk as the carrier.At that time, Broadcast will serve as the official audio download site, specifically providing genuine audio resource downloads for users of this player.

Simon departed from New York to Melbourne on the morning of April 3.

The entire journey takes more than 20 hours.

While still on the plane, Simon heard the news that three songs triggered the popularity.

Although Brzezinski seemed to have proposed the famous'nipple theory' at a global elite gathering this year, as the one at the top of the current social wealth pyramid, in order to ensure the interests of the Westeros system, Simon did This was promoted intentionally or unintentionally from a very early stage.

Therefore, Simon is pleased with the popularity of the three songs.

Even the recent events are listed on the plane. "This man is from the earth" North American box office broke 200 million US dollars, three singles suddenly became popular all over the world, Universal Studios Osaka opened on April 6, Tinkerbair The company also released new digital cameras and other products at the same time on April 8, so many things, Jane is full of pacifiers.Life is too short.

Singing and dancing, it's so good to be drunk.
