Chapter 565 Don't Care About My Appearance, I'm Just a Singer(2/2)

Even though this was the 1980s, and there was no bonus from TV dramas, the results might not be as good as when this song appeared in the previous life, but it was more than enough for the initial hit, or the sales of 100,000 copies in the first week.

In the 1980s, the records of the Japanese pop music scene, which initially sold 100,000 copies, were well within the top five of the Oricon weekly charts, and there was a high chance of ranking first.

If it can have an initial sales volume of 200,000, then no need to ask, at least during this period, it will definitely rank first on the Oricon weekly list.

Having this kind of achievement is enough, there is no need to be too demanding.

"Cao Sang, you don't seem surprised to hear the news." Nobuo Tomioka smiled.

Cao Zhiqiang shrugged: "No, it's just that I'm new here and don't know the situation here, so it's hard to comment."

"I see." Nobuo Tomioka nodded, "That's right. As for us, if we test the waters before the release, that is, if the radio station can replay it more than three times during the testing period, we can basically conclude that the song is a big hit.

It’s a hit song, and your song has been replayed five times, which is the radio station’s maximum number of replays, so it’s no problem for it to become a hit.”

After a brief pause, Nobuo Tomioka said: "Because the results of this test have been good, we decided to increase our promotion efforts before the official release.

To this end, I specifically approached the president, who agreed to increase the promotion fee to 80 million yen.

You know, this fee is very high. Akina-san is so popular now, and her record promotion fees are not even that high.

So, we would like to invite you to take some photos at the company. At that time, we will make your photos into posters, calendars, street sign advertisements, subway advertisements, etc.

It will be promoted for three days first, and when it is officially released, it will be launched on TV MTV as an advertisement. I believe the sales will be good.

What do you think?"

Cao Zhiqiang frowned: "When will the photo shoot be taken?"

"It's best to go tonight." Nobuo Tomioka said, "Of course, if it's inconvenient for you, you can do it early tomorrow morning. But it's best to go quickly and not later than tomorrow. After all, today is Sunday, tomorrow is Monday, and we will go on Wednesday.

It won’t be officially released for many days.”

Cao Zhiqiang thought for a while and nodded: "Yes, I can go with you now, but I have a condition."

"What conditions?" Tomioka Nobuo asked.

Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly: "When taking photos, I don't want to show my face, I want to wear a mask on my face.

Considering that I may have to do some singing poses, the mask can be like Zorro's mask, which only covers the upper half of the face and exposes the mouth,"

"Wearing a mask? Not showing your face?" Nobuo Tomioka was stunned, "Isn't this inappropriate?"

Cao Zhiqiang smiled and shook his head: "No, no, no, Section Chief Tomioka, we need to open up the situation and don't be bound by traditional thinking.

You think, since I started with the mysterious style, I might as well stick to the mysterious style to the end.

Since the radio station only introduced three pieces of information: my stage name, age and height, wouldn’t it be more mysterious and arouse more curiosity when taking pictures of me wearing a mask?”

"That's what I said, but I've never done this before." Nobuo Tomioka frowned.

"No one has done it before, but that doesn't mean we can't do it." Cao Zhiqiang smiled.

"Tomioka-san, you also said that the radio test results of my song were good, and everyone liked the song very much.

Since the listeners of the radio station cannot see anyone and can only hear my singing, we might as well use my voice as a selling point.

For example, you can say slogans, but for the sake of singing, you can recognize people by hearing the sound.

In other words, don't care about my appearance, I'm just a singer.

If you do this, will you immediately become taller?

In addition, my voice is indeed very recognizable. I have never heard of any singer here with a voice similar to mine, so you won’t be mistaken just by listening to my singing.

In this way, this is all a gimmick, and it will definitely arouse people's curiosity.

Human beings are very curious animals.

Once humans become curious, they have to find out whether they like it or not.

If this happens, will sales still be bad?”

Nobuo Tomioka frowned at first, and then suddenly slapped his thigh in surprise: "Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, it's really wonderful! This is a great idea, I think I'll do it like this!"
