Chapter 64 One The bell for the end of get out of class has just rung. Song Yuqi had packed her schoolbag long ago, and as soon as the teacher announced the end of get out of class, she immediately ran out of the classroom at the speed of a 100-meter race. Today is Friday and there’s KBS’s “Music Bank”! Song Yuqi had already calculated that "Music Bank" would start airing at 17:16 Peninsula time, which is : in China. It was only 16:05 now. She skipped her extracurricular activities and rushed home as quickly as possible so that she could definitely watch the second half of the show before it ended. "Che Bai! I must get one and give the VIP a slap in the face!" At this moment, Song Yuqi vividly interpreted what it means to have fire in the heart and light in the eyes. Just a few days ago, she received a pre-sale album from Jin Shiming. Song Yuqi was completely stunned at the time. The delivery speed and logistics efficiency were simply unbelievable! In the past, when she purchased albums overseas, it would take her at least ten days to half a month from placing the order to receiving the goods.
Due to some special circumstances, several months, almost half a year, have passed, but I still can't wait to release my own album. Sometimes, your idol has made a comeback, but you have to place an order for a new album before you even receive the previous one. Song Yuqi really didn't expect that the sales network built by Jin Shiming would instantly kill all other channels. The products have only been officially launched on the peninsula for a short time, and they have been delivered to China one after another. The efficiency is almost comparable to that of the free shipping areas in China. In addition, Jin Shiming is undoubtedly more attentive to details. The outer packaging of the package was very tight, with no obvious signs of damage on the outside. After unpacking, there was shock-absorbing padding inside, and the album and surrounding items were neatly stacked together. Compared with his peers, the high quality of service provided by Jin Shiming made Song Yuqi experience the feeling that "the customer is God". In Jin Shiming’s personal forum, which was established not long ago, many fans who received the goods said that this was definitely the most comfortable and satisfying overseas shopping experience for them. Some fans are even a little worried. Jin Shiming didn't increase the price and the postage is not expensive. Is he sure he is not losing money by doing this? Fans of other KPOP artists were envious and contacted the website's customer service to ask whether the platform would expand its business in the future and whether they could purchase albums of other idol groups on their behalf. There were so many similar inquiries that the customer service girl was almost exhausted, and the website had to issue an announcement to explain the situation. The general meaning is that due to many reasons, the website can only purchase albums of artists under BD Entertainment. As for the demands of the majority of mainland KPOP fans, BD Entertainment will actively try to seek benefits for everyone. Although it has a bit of official flavor, it at least gave mainland KPOP fans some expectations and gained a wave of goodwill. As a newly-crowned fan of ten years, Song Yuqi is naturally proud of it! However, her good mood did not last long as it was shattered by the news of a move. The Xiba H chart actually refused to admit that China lost in sales, and even implied that Jin Shiming's sales were not credible! What's even more disgusting is the VIP next door. They were originally ready to play dead, but now they changed their previous expressions and opened champagne one after another. They are definitely villains who have succeeded! Can Song Yuqi and other domestic fans tolerate being attacked in the face? A big shot showed up to give a science lecture, introducing in detail the scoring rules of the major music shows, and made a rough estimate based on real-time data.
KBS TV's "Music Bank" aired today is a music program in which Kim Se-myung has little hope of getting a place. The scoring rules of "Music Bank" are: sound source (45%) + sales (20%) + number of radio program appearances (15%) + audience favorability (20%). In comparison, the sales share of "Music Bank" is quite high, so it is also called the sales bank. Kim Semyung's second mini album "Spring" was officially on sale for less than a week, while BIGBANG's "ALIVE" took a full half month longer to sell. Originally, relying on the powerful Chinese singers, Kim Se Myung would not be much inferior to BIGBANG in terms of sales. Now that the Peninsula chart does not recognize these nearly 5 Chinese singers, the gap is instantly revealed. Even though Jin Shiming's vocals are very strong, he doesn't participate in music promotions or appear on variety shows, so his broadcast points are at a great disadvantage, which is like there is a natural big hole that needs to be filled. All in all, the scores of both parties should be quite close, and the key to the final decision of the winner may be the audience score! Every week, the "Music Bank" program team will conduct a survey based on different genders, ages, and regions, and randomly send out 1000 emails to members of Peninsula Broadcasting Research. Members selected their top three songs from 100 candidate songs and calculated their scores. This section is almost only for local members of the peninsula, and the chance of being selected is one in a million, so there is basically no room for domestic fans to intervene. However, YG and KBS have not been getting along very well in recent years, and it is rumored that KBS has frequently targeted YG's artists. There is a high probability that KBS will not engage in shady dealings and give the first place to BIGBANG. …… Song Yuqi's luck is a bit bad, the traffic jam is quite serious tonight. I rushed back home and it was already almost 17: pm. Song Yuqi rushed straight into her room, pressed the power button on her computer, and then threw her schoolbag aside. Following the master's tutorial, she used magic to successfully open the KBS live broadcast. Fortunately, "Music Bank" had just finished airing and I didn't miss the part where the first place was announced. All the artists participating in the song promotion stood in the center of the stage. The MCs at the time were Lee Jang Woo from 24/7 and U-IE from After School. Standing next to the two MCs is a strong competitor, BIGBANG. As the BIGBANG members entered the picture, a familiar duel interface appeared on the screen. The portrait frame on the left shows BIGBANG on stage in real time. In the right avatar frame on the other side is the cover of Kim Semyung's second mini album "Spring". Song Yuqi widened her eyes and stared at the rating bar that began to scroll. Just as the boss predicted, Jin Shiming had a clear advantage in the sound source score. BIGBANG made up for the disadvantage with the help of sales and broadcast points. In the final audience score, the two sides were evenly matched. Song Yuqi's heart began to beat fast. She roughly calculated in her head and found that the total scores of both sides were not that different.
"Nei! Jin Shiming/IU! "Spring Love Sakura"! Chukahamida!" When Song Yuqi heard the MC's announcement, she was still not sure until she saw the total scores displayed at the bottom for both sides. Kim Se-myung's "Spring Love Sakura" won over BIGBANG's "Fantastic Baby" by a narrow margin of 58 points. "Oh my god! I really won! A rough card!" Song Yuqi shouted at the top of her voice. All the resentment accumulated over the past few days was finally released at this moment. It was such a relief! What’s wrong with not participating in the music promotion? What’s wrong with letting you lose 5 yuan? You still got the first place by stepping on BIGBANG! How can VIPs still have the face to complain now? “If I can win first place on Inkigayo again, that would be really awesome!” Song Yuqi couldn’t help but start fantasizing. Among the three major TV stations in Al Jazeera, MBC TV's "Music Center" has abolished the one-person system since 2006, so we will not mention it for now. The remaining SBS TV station's "Inkigayo" has become the only two music programs among the three major TV stations that can take first place. Voting and surveys account for a high proportion of the scoring rules of "Inkigayo", but judging from the popularity reflected by today's audience scores, Kim Se-myung is not without a chance.
