Although the master tape was completed, considering various factors, Ding Ning was still scheduled to remain unchanged on October 2 on the date when the digital version was officially put on the shelves.However, the delivery time of the record version of the album can be two days in advance, and the distribution company guarantees that before October 7, the first batch of 50,000 albums will be sent out one after another, and the subsequent 50,000 copies will also be shipped according to the order.Affected by the scolding war, the record version of the seed sold well, and as of 0:00 on October 1, a total of 930,000 copies were sold, far exceeding expectations.Even if this result does not grow, it can still account for 5 in the overall physical record market last year, ranking 14th, and it is estimated that this year will be similar.Of course, due to the fact that the overall technology of the world is slightly ahead, the popularity of various digital devices is very high, and the cost of physical records is high, many singers have given up the physical record market, either not producing physical albums at all, or just two or three album hot songs together to produce a collection version, and the sales of physical records are not so high.The reason why Ding Ning is willing to release physical records, on the one hand, is because those who are willing to record now are basically iron fans who are bought for collection, and the hearts of iron fans must be taken care of in his opinion.On the other hand, as a singer, he doesn't have a physical record, which is unreasonable for him, a person who has traveled from a less developed world.What's more, releasing a physical record has also been a knot in his heart for many years, no matter whether the future album will release a physical version, at least this one, he must realize his dream.The digital version is the big market that really tests whether it is gold or sand.No, in the terrifying market of the digital version, as of the early morning of the eleventh day, his 340,000 pre-sales can't afford to lift a single small wave, compared with the pre-sales of Zheng Wei's last album of 7.74 million, that is, the amount of a placenta.Ding Ning didn't think that he would reach the sky in one step, and he was quite happy to have such a result now.On the eleventh day, it was the day when the first K competition of the Young Singer Contest was recorded, and Ding Ning couldn't rest.The first phase of the K competition is an internal K between the members of the recommendation group, and the winner, after selecting their own mentor, will continue to the next round of group confrontation.There are a total of 16 members in the recommendation group, and only 8 can enter the main competition, and the selection of opponents is by draw.Mao Yuanyuan gave the list of group members on September 27, Ding Ning didn't know any of them, Ma Chu and Yang Du studied the list, and found that among the 16 people, 13 were back pot meat, only he and the other three men and women were pure newcomers, and the competition was obviously fierce.Ma Chu was originally going to follow, but the recording location was at the Shenshi Drama Academy, that is, the gymnasium of Ye Di School, not much away from where Ding Ning lived, which was very convenient, plus a competition to select new singers, it was not appropriate to bring an agent, Ding Ning asked Ma Chu to go crazy wherever he wanted to go and enjoy the holiday.Yang Du and Zhang Xuan went with Ding Ning, but when they arrived at the gymnasium, they parted ways with Ding Ning and disappeared into the sea of people.Ding Ning contacted Mao Yuanyuan, and he led him to the backstage to make up.After putting on makeup, Ding Ning came to the left side of the stage and looked at the audience.The gymnasium is quite large, after being fully closed, there is only the overhead lighting, no different from the night, there is more than half an hour to leave, the seats are almost full, basically some young people, noisy and shouting.This is a game to be on TV, and with so many live audiences, Ding Ning can't help but be a little nervous.Before the official start of recording, Mao Yuanyuan gathered all the players in the recommendation group together and introduced themselves to each other, which can be regarded as acquaintance.Because everyone has a list of players before the game, they will basically find out who they are, Ding Ning found that many of the players have a feeling of "eyeing him", and they are afraid that they will regard him as a strong rival.No way, who has made him in the limelight lately.Fortunately, he only needs to go head-to-head with an opponent, there is no need to go through one by one, and the pressure is not very great.The official recording starts at 10 o'clock, and the first process is the appearance of all the members of the recommendation group.Almost everyone brought a group of relatives and friends, and whoever the host introduced, there would be bursts of exclamations.Because no one was notified in advance, Ding Ning was relatively cold during the scene, but there was the program team's own support at the scene, and there were still those who cheered for him, and there were even three girls in the front row who held up a light sign with his name.I didn't see a few light signs at the scene, and I didn't know if the light signs were arranged by the program team or brought by themselves, Ding Ning was very surprised.Immediately after that, the contestants draw lots, and everyone will get a number, and Ding Ning drew "8", a very auspicious number.Then there are four mentors who draw lots, they draw two lots at a time, and the two people who are drawn will be divided into the same group of K.The first group was drawn No. 8 and No. 3, turned his head left and right, and found that the opponent was Li Dalu, Ding Ning was stunned.Li Dalu is the most unwanted of his 15 potential opponents, because this guy has a lot of qualifications, he released an album four years ago, and his fame at that time was similar to Zhang Xuan's current popularity, and then he didn't know why he transformed behind the scenes, and created a lot of popular songs, which is the highest overall strength among the 15 people in Yang Du's eyes.A person like Li Dalu, who has a lot of experience behind the scenes, is simply a seed-level player, and when he encounters such a strong opponent in the first round, Ding Ning can only sigh unlucky.Unexpectedly, the opponent was Ding Ning, and Li Dalu was as surprised as Ding Ning.He carefully checked Ding Ning's information and learned that Ding Ning once topped the weekly list of free new songs with those flowers, and he also had a big fight with Sun Xi's fans for this.And he is not afraid of what he writes, and now it can be heard on the streets and alleys, in some ways, the two of them are a bit similar, they are both singer-songwriters.Although Ding Ning is indeed a newcomer, this newcomer, in Li Dalu's opinion, is a bit hanging.said that Ding Ning was a little hanging, Li Dalu felt that he was underestimating Ding Ning.From his point of view, Ding Ning is a very likely player to reach the finals, this met in the first round, and he has to make a life and death, isn't this nonsense, can his luck be worse, he is under a lot of pressure.It's a pity that the result has been decided, and he can only do his best.After all 16 contestants were divided into groups, the moderator began to introduce the four mentors.The mentors of this year's Young Singer Contest are still three men and one woman.The only woman is called Xia Ziyan, a female singer who is popular.In 11 years, he participated in the first Young Singer Competition, and entered the "Strongest New Voice" with the first place, and won the first place in the "Strongest New Voice".Three male mentors, one is Peng Shijian, who prefers traditional singing, but he likes not to stick to traditional music styles, hip-hop rap and the like are also just talking, and he is the only one of the four mentors who has participated in the last Young Singer Competition.Strictly speaking, he is also the only figure among the four mentors who can be called a "master", a bit of an old naughty boy.One is the pop star Wu Hongming, who was on the front line in 2010, but is now a little outdated, with a more comprehensive style of music and a bit cynical style of dressing.The last one is called Qiao Kun, who sings pop rock, a rock singer who was submerged in the Wen Heyang era, after Wen Heyang faded out, his spring just came, and now he has faintly become a leader in the rock industry.After introducing the mentor, the players in the first group of K, that is, Ding Ning and Li Dalu, stayed, and the other players all returned to the backstage.Li Dalu took the smaller No. 3 and was the first to sing on stage.Ding Ning actually wanted to be the first to go, because at this time, the mentors were not yet aesthetically fatigued, and their judgment would not be so strict.Li Dalu, as a very powerful singer, if he lights up four lights as soon as he goes up, then he will be under a lot of pressure.Moreover, the song chosen by Li Dalu is a vine, a bitter love song created by himself, which was once sung by Xia Ziyan, and Xia Ziyan is a mentor.It's a pity that this year, which game has not been a bit shady, the reality cannot be changed, and Ding Ning is not entangled.He is a person who is bent on reaching the finals, and he can't turn over Li Dalu, so he takes the lead to enter the finals:
