That scar, when I was a child playing with my brother to catch thieves, his brother threw a kitchen knife and hit Xueyou right in the face, but fortunately he didn't hit him in the eye! Xueyou liked being a policeman when he was a child, so he played the policeman and his brother played the bad guy! Alas! However, that scar is more mysterious! It can be seen at once, which also proves that he will not deliberately dress up!

More than 43.46 million.

Note: The above sales figures are incomplete statistics, and some of them only have sales figures in a certain region, so I specially wrote the word "Guo" when indicating the sales volume. I believe that the total sales volume of Xueyou will definitely exceed 43.46 million.

According to the more than 40 million editions just now, many of them only counted the sales volume of Hongkong or Taiwan Province Province. Then, how about so many Taiwan Province editions in Taiwan Province Province and so many imported editions in mainland China?

Where are the sales in Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia and other areas where schoolmates are also very popular? Where did the global sales of China people go?

I also heard that imported versions were often not included in sales, and it's hard to say now. Then what are so many tapes in my drawer? What are so many genuine CDs that everyone writes about "imported by XX Audio-visual Publishing House"?

So I think the 40 million and 60 million versions are not accurate.

There is a highly credible statement.

The best-selling Chinese single Mandarin record is Jacky Cheung's more than 4 million kisses.

The highest sales volume of single Mandarin records is more than 400,000 copies of Jacky Cheung's "True Feelings" (Hong Kong sales more than n years ago), and perhaps the global sales volume is more than 6,543,800+0,000 copies as mentioned in the first message. Anyway, regardless of the global sales volume, the sales volume of Cantonese records in Hong Kong is definitely the highest in the world.

However, some people say that there is a Cantonese record in Anita Mui that has exceeded 400,000. I don't know if it is reliable.

It is said that the total record sales of China singers are the highest in Teresa Teng. Although the details are difficult to verify, the credibility is still very high. As for whether it is really over 100 million, it is not clear, maybe.

The second is Xueyou, even if it is more than 40 million.

The environmental obstacle to the sales problem lies in

Mainland China:

I used to buy genuine tapes. 10 yuan. The ratio of pirated tapes to genuine tapes is not so exaggerated, and the price difference is not big. Pirated tapes that are too cheap will not be listened to.

Later, instead of buying tapes, we bought CDs. At that time, even imported CDs were extremely expensive, while pirated CDs only cost a few dollars, so of course, the sales of genuine products declined.

Later, CDs were cheaper, but there were many problems in network communication, so now the recording industry is more difficult.

Hongkong and Taiwan Province:

Comprehensive music is decentralized, and people have many ways of entertainment besides listening to songs, and the same is true in the mainland.

Piracy is more serious than before, but the speed of economic development is not proportional to it.

Network communication is not worse than mainland China, or at least their network hardware facilities are better.

What's more, teenagers dare to spend money on records when they may not make money. A large part of fans in this age group prefer the new generation of singers, and the mainland is similar.

The internal causes of the decline in sales of Xueyou records

Diverse styles, like to try new styles. Fans have different tastes, but I think the quality of his albums in recent years is roughly the same as that in the past, except that there are fewer mainstream songs and fewer songs that are easy to pop. Instead, something that is not very pleasant to listen to, but durable, or of high quality, but not as catchy and easy to sing as some songs in the past.

Xueyou likes to try more non-mainstream music types, which will affect sales. But he has sung countless catchy mainstream songs. I like that he keeps changing his route, but his pursuit is endless. He wants to open a wider sky, and can't just be trapped in the digital game of sales. This is a question of fish and bear's paw, and I think we can understand his feelings.

Take his most disappointing Mandarin album "Xueyou Fever" as an example. This is my favorite CD, but why doesn't it sell well? 1. The cover is not nice. The first title song is "Hot", which is different and not popular. 3. The overall record level is high, but it lacks the first place in a beam. "Let Me Go" is a mainstream love song, but compared with the previous mainstream love songs, it is inferior, a little slow, and it is not easy to catch up at the fastest. The lyrics are vulgar but ordinary, and even if you appreciate them carefully, it is very interesting. I am really hurt. Very popular, but very conscious. If it is not love, it is an unexpected surprise, but a casual taste. It is not good to really regard it as the first flagship. The result is not what I want, but I can barely, but I didn't focus on promotion, probably because of copyright litigation.

Of course, even so, I always feel that there are other reasons for the poor sales of such a good disc as Xueyou fever. I don't know, so I won't say much.

Then a Mandarin album "Where Is He?" was released, because coffee and gifts sold better. Although the overall level is similar to the last one, even I prefer "schoolmate fever". Of course, if you use coffee or gifts as the album title, it will sell better. It's just that Xueyou won't take gifts as the main theme now, and it's not atmospheric enough to use petty bourgeoisie noun coffee as the album title. Although many singers will do this, Xueyou's album will not. Looking back, the titles of his albums are basically generous.

There is also the source of the song.

1. Now Xueyou rarely covers it, which doesn't mean he can't do it without it, because he basically left Gai in 95-97, but it's also a reason.

2. In addition, the creative power of Chinese music is really pitiful, especially in Hongkong and pot calling the kettle black, Taiwan Province Province. Some creators have written more songs for the new generation of singers and children, and it is estimated that many younger brothers and sisters also despise them. Fortunately, Xueyou can write more songs himself, which may help him to some extent.

Xueyou won't change the songs in Cantonese album into Mandarin again, although I don't object to his doing so.

The only thing I want to criticize him is that the disc is too slow, even if my language is heavy, I still have to criticize him. The last time I saw him, I couldn't bear to mention that he was so tired, and his hair turned white. There are only a few new songs in front of black and white, and Xuelang Lake is changed in Cantonese. If love has only four songs, two of them are still the same melody. A mandarin album will wait until 2002 to 2006. ......

In short, no matter how Xueyou chooses the song path, as long as the real fans will support and like his new work, how is the record sales calculated? Is the imported version counted as sales? Complex factors with China characteristics. This problem is still known to people who know the ropes. Let's learn from it.

What we have to do ourselves is to resolutely support Xueyou's genuine copy, try our best to resist Xueyou's piracy, and resist downloading his things online if he can buy them or not.

If it's not piracy, if it's not too much free spread on the internet, (in fact, all these are due to imperfect laws, and this problem can be solved to a great extent through legislation abroad. Maybe online sales of record companies are also a trend, but that's later)

Although it is shocking to estimate statistics by replacing pirated and downloaded figures with genuine ones, because of economic laws, the economic cost of downloading is close to zero, and the money paid by piracy is only a fraction of the genuine ones. Then if you remove the downloaded ones, it will be huge to turn a small part of the pirated ones into genuine ones. Because piracy is always n times more than genuine, especially on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, especially on the mainland!

In this way, I think sales can double. There was no such serious problem in Teresa Teng's time, so if the world is normal, Xueyou should be the number 1 of the total sales.

In fact, the sales problem has deeper roots.

It is because Chinese is relatively weak in today's world, and our great nation, which once had a thousand years of glory, is now relatively backward in economic and cultural system, so its improvement still needs a process. However, for everyone who is a China native, we can't just rely on one word, just like the terminal of record sales has to buy one by one. What will happen in the future depends on what we people are doing. When we get off the net and return to real life, do we have a country or a nation in our hearts? Do we still have Xueyou in our hearts when we appreciate his singing?
