844 Two Dragons Playing Pearls

From the sales level of physical albums, "Nine" has achieved success in various senses, and the numbers will not lie.

First week, one hundred and seventeen thousand.

The next week, half a million.

In the third week, 360,000.

The fourth week, 270,000.

Four weeks after its release, "Nine" won the Billboard four consecutive championships, and its cumulative sales have reached 2.3 million. The amazing performance has received applause. Even if professional music critics still stick to their own opinions, they cannot deny the beautiful victory of this album at the commercial level.

The first volume came out of nowhere; the second volume successfully reached the top.

Judging from the curve so far, the King of One Day has surpassed Taylor Swift's rise to the forefront, becoming the fastest-soaring singer since the millennium, and has initially shown the kingly style. In just two years, he has reached the ranks of unreachable superstars.

Moreover, one day the King also successfully broke Nora Jones' development model. So far, the "Nine"'s stamina is still strong and has initially embarked on its own path. It seems that it will not perfectly copy Nora's career trajectory, and the subsequent sales trend further proves this.

From "King of One Day vs Farrell" to "King of One Day vs Shakira", the strong duels that people are eagerly anticipated have not arrived. One after another, one dark horse after another, no fierce battle or fierce battle, and even close forces, the duel has ended hastily.

But! The unpopular accidents are still not over!

Although the strong showdown that people are expecting did not happen, an unexpected Huashan swordsmanship emerged and became a beautiful landscape from spring to summer this year. The east is not bright in the west, and the close-fits fighting that people are eagerly looking forward to finally happens, and adrenaline is fully blooming.

The two opponents, one is the King of One Day, and the explosive power and battery life of "Nine" broke expectations. Even after four weeks of release, it was still strong, and the weekly data was falling below glasses; the other was... the original soundtrack of "Frozen", which was even more shocking!

At the end of last year, the Disney animated film "Frozen" unexpectedly became a hit. The long and strong box office curve continued from November to March this year, and there was still no sign of obvious weakening, which made countless people amazed. Such a magnificent scene appeared after the "Titanic"-

Like "Titanic", "Frozen" performed well when it was first released, and it was not bad, but it was far from excellent. However, it relied on the subsequent incredible decline and even counterattack increase, and sang all the way and exploded, and finally achieved a box office miracle.

The box office of "Frozen" was only more than 60 million US dollars on the premiere weekend. The box office decline in the next week and the third week was not optimistic. However, it ushered in a counterattack during the Christmas period. The cumulative box office was 160 million yuan in one month of release, but four months after it was released, the box office had exceeded 300 million yuan, and it took firm steps towards 400 million yuan.

It can be called a myth.

At the same time, the movie soundtrack also ushered in an explosion!

As mentioned earlier, "Frozen"'s "let go" and "Despicable 2"'s "happiness" are like Gemini stars, shining at the end of the year, major shopping malls on Christmas and New Year's Day, and these familiar melodies are circulating in the streets and alleys, but there are some differences between the two.

"Happy", excellent single performance, and the best performance on the Billboard are the best proof.

"Frozen" has an amazing performance in the album. "Let go" performed well on the Billboard singles chart but is far from amazing, but the movie's original soundtrack showed strong competitiveness on the Billboard album chart.

Moreover, the "Frozen" soundtrack also took a similar curve like the movie.

The soundtrack released along with the release of the movie was always in a lukewarm state in the first five weeks, with sales of less than 50,000 copies per week. Looking at the lively and crowded North American market, it may be a bit exaggerated to say that it is "no one to check this person", but it is basically an unknown person on the 18th line.

However, after entering 2014, the third week of January, the sixth week of the soundtrack was released, the album's sales burst out with 180,000 yuan in a single week, climbing to the runner-up of the Billboard Album Chart, only behind Beyoncé's new album, officially sounding the horn of counterattack.

Three weeks later, the "Frozen" soundtrack sold more than 100,000 yuan in sales for the third consecutive week, and took advantage of the lack of new album releases to hit the market and topped the Billboard Album List for the first time. At this time, it had been ten weeks since the album was released, and it had written a myth of counterattack.

After that, this soundtrack was out of control, with steady sales output every week, with 100,000 being the basics, and a small explosion of 200,000 being not uncommon. At the same time, overseas markets outside North America also performed well, and regions including the United Kingdom, Japan, Australia, etc. also topped the top.

Until the time when "Nine" successfully topped the Billboard Album List, the "Frozen" soundtrack was still second, and it had won the championship three weeks ago.

In other words, the "Frozen" soundtrack missed the opportunity to explode. The power of a million sales in a single week like "Nine" is no longer available, but its long and powerful battery life is enough to make all the competitors in the market fade, and they can easily kill a group of opponents.

So, the unexpected opponents were arranged in this way by "Nine" vs "Frozen" soundtrack.

In this case, in the first week of April, the original soundtrack of "Frozen" suddenly exploded with sales of 270,000, but "Nine" still broke out in a series of explosions in the early stages of release, and it also delivered sales of 360,000 without any weakness. Even though six groups of singers released new albums this week, no one could shake the blockade of the Billboard Album List's first and second place.

In the third week of April, the "Nine" ushered in a low period after a full month of outbreak, with sales falling to around 230,000 per week; at the same time, the "Frozen" soundtrack continued to produce strong output and bought 220,000 copies. The two sides fought hard and couldn't solve it. In the end, the King narrowly defeated the defending title with a narrow advantage, adding one more week to the championship, and came to five consecutive championships.

Here, in the last week of April, "Nine" once again thrilledly suppressed the "Frozen" soundtrack with a slight difference, achieving a six-game winning streak.

On the other hand, in the first week of May, the original soundtrack of "Frozen" was exposed to the terrible sales of 350,000 yuan, ending the journey of "Nine" six-champion. Although the King's second album still sold 210,000 copies this week, it still could not resist the opponent's counterattack.

However, this is still not the end.

The entanglement and competition between the two powerful competitors passed May and June. The bayonets still had a fierce battle and no winner was decided. No matter what singer released a new album, it could not create more trouble, and no one could break through their joint blockade.
