King of Hollywood Chapter 68: World No. 2
Chapter 68 The Second World
On January 20, Bush Jr. officially announced his inauguration. For many people, this is an unacceptable fact, but for others, this is the expected result. (_彩&虹&文与学)M
"So, are you ready to make a final blow to them?" In Crowder's office, Adrian asked his buddy in a relaxed tone, although he arrived in Los Angeles yesterday, but he is now Doesn't it seem that there is not much discomfort due to the jet lag, is it because of the twinkling with Parker on the plane?
It’s an Indian girl, but after all living in the United States for a long time, it’s relatively open, but there are still some shyness in this opening, and because of the short-term openness of the heart, he is very engaged, so it is quite tempting . In addition, Adrian has accumulated a lot in London, especially to influence Keira and deliberately control herself, so it is quite crazy to roll up the sheets. At the beginning, he also planned how to get the three of them to bed in turn. Thinking about how to get Parkjak to reach a higher peak, anyway, they are all on their own planes, and they are still afraid to escape their palms?
In short, his spirit is very good, so he came directly to Claude to ask about the situation. In fact, Bush’s inauguration did not have much to do with him. Crowder was responsible from beginning to end. When I came back, I still wanted to know the specific progress, and it was a loss if I dragged on for a day.
"Don’t be so anxious, dear Ed, George W. Bush has just taken office, he will have to spend time familiarizing himself with the White House and adjusting his manpower. If nothing goes wrong, no later than the middle of next month, before the Oscar nomination list is announced, We will be able to complete this acquisition," Claude comforted him with a smile. "The big picture is settled, don't worry about their small moves."
"At&adband's financial statements for the last quarter were quite good. If we delay further, we will spend more money. Although this is expected, it will eventually make people uncomfortable." Adrian shared his hands.
Claude looked at him in surprise for a moment, then smiled: "You know, Ed, you are more and more like a group board chairman."
"Why, haven't I thought about the interests of the group before?" Adrian asked with raised eyebrows.
"Of course not, but not as it is now..." Crow made a few gestures and smiled without saying anything.
"Okay, I didn’t really care at the beginning, there were deviations but basically still expected, until I watched this year’s TV and movie-related plans," Adrian stood up and looked at Gram with a smile Lauder, "This year the media will win a blowout development. We can take this opportunity to fully demonstrate our strength to other groups. The acquisition of at&adband is only the first step, and it will be the second step after May, and the end of the year. In three steps, we will use facts to prove that the media is the largest media group in the United States and the world!”
"It’s an exciting prediction, so I’m going to work harder, and then--wait to see these one by one come true." Claude put his hands on the table and said in a casual tone.
This is actually not a prediction. Except for the step at the end of the year, which is still to be discussed, the step in May has already begun to take shape. Claude will not fail to notice, so just wait for that time to come.
After learning about at&adband from Claude, Adrian immediately focused on another issue that came back, Avril's new single.
"Frankly, Wei Niu, what hatred do you have with this piano?" In the Music Room of Universal Records, Adrian sighed and asked after listening to the performance, "You gritted your teeth, it looks like you want to eat Lost it."
"If this piano is made of cake, I must have eaten it already, if you are made of cake, I must have eaten you too!" Avril sitting in front of the piano hugged her arms Drummed.
"Well, if you can finish the song beautifully, I will order a cake about the size of this piano and a cake about the size of my whole person, so you can eat enough." Adrian Said with a grin.
Avril rolled her eyes, put the lid down and turned around: "Why can't I use the guitar accompaniment? Why can't I use my most popular instrument and must use the piano?"
"Why, what kind of instruments can be used, Universal Music's most potential young singer can't even handle the piano?" Adrian asked jokingly.
"leed!" Avril stared at him immediately, and bite the pronunciation of "e" and "d" very hard, but a flash of blush flashed immediately after he said his face.
Adrian couldn’t help rolling his eyes, and then waved his hand: “Okay, no kidding, indeed, it’s easy to write this song into a guitar version, but you’ve sang this song before, You even participated in the arrangement, Wei Niu, you really like this song, right? Then, you tell me, is piano accompaniment better or guitar accompaniment better?"
Avril opened her mouth several times without saying a word, and finally only sighed sullenly, and then thought of something that looked at him: "Can't you find someone else to play? For example...you? You The piano also plays well, lead, the last time you sang this song, you played me and sang, the effect is very good, Eric also thinks so."
She blinked her eyes with hopeful light and seemed to really hope so, but Adrian reached out and pressed her head: "Do you think your fans like to watch you play and sing in front of the camera, or do you like it? Watch others play and you sing sillyly next to you? Especially after ""?"
"But I can play with the guitar and the piano." The girl was still a little bit unwilling.
"Okay, Wei Niu, instead of thinking about changing instruments here, it’s better to spend more time doing more exercises to make yourself more proficient, but this song is just not a piano to play in the future." Adrian finally couldn’t hold back and reached out. Squeezed on her face. As usual, she was smashed by Ai Weier's slap before she hit it, but as usual, the girl's look did not change at all, and she was obviously used to it.
"That's it. If you don't work hard, the time for the new album will be delayed. If it is released after September, then Grammy next year will not want to participate." Adrian haha turned around with a smile Left the instrument room.
Avril was stunned on the stool for a long while, and finally she let out a frustrated breath and opened the piano lid to practice again.
"les", this is Adrian’s new single for Avril Lavigne. There is no doubt that the song is very suitable for Avril Lavigne’s current image, and she also likes it. In addition, this song is very popular in the previous life. It can just make a good foundation for her music road. The only problem to be solved is that this song is played on the piano.
Although there are many musical instruments in Avril Lavigne, the most good thing is the guitar and the piano can be played, but to the extent of "les", it is not enough to do more practice. It is definitely more uncomfortable for a girl who is used to playing guitar to get accustomed to changing other instruments than killing her. However, the unique pure sound quality of the piano’s role in "les" is other instruments. There is no substitute.
The Adrian has heard the guitar version in the past life, and frankly, it is not as good as the piano version, so in order to achieve the perfect effect of this song, Iveer can only be sacrificed. As for the proposal of playing the piano and guitar together, it is worse than playing the guitar alone. Since it is mainly piano performance, it should be sung by the person who plays the piano, but it is the guitar that opens the mouth. This contrast effect It will leave a bad impression, it is better to let people play and sing alone.
I hope you can understand my pains, Wei Niu. Adrian said so in his heart. Where is Avril Lavigne's advantage? Young, energetic and full of passion, even the decadent smoky makeup can't block her upward momentum, plus the image of a talented girl who can still write and compose, so there are so many teenagers like her, can it be later?
She can maintain this image until she is 25 years old, with a guitar, light rock, and explosive girl, but what about after 25 years old? The singer has to constantly adjust himself to change or cater to the market. Adrian is not optimistic about Avril Lavigne’s actions on the latter, not to mention that the record will gradually shrink in the future, so he can only work **** the former, so he chose "les" As Avril Lavigne's second single, I hope this foreshadowing will play a role in the future.
It should be possible. Adrian sighed in his heart, and then transferred to other aspects. After the launch of "v", Avril's image began to be close to the image he remembered, with long hair, eye smoke, short-sleeved black t-shirts and jeans, canvas shoes, and the explosive power of singing when singing. But in some aspects, there is no progress. Although the relationship is very close, Avril is willing to say anything to Adrian. He also likes to chat with him and do some small games. He occasionally squeezes her face, girl It always opens quickly without getting angry, but it doesn't work if I want to go a little further.
I don’t know why, maybe it’s the “le” problem? Adrian is also unclear. Such doubts have only been encountered in several women such as Cate, Charlize, Sarah, Blanchett, etc., and they have almost disappeared in the past two years.
If each is like a small pet, you don’t need to consume so much energy, but then again, if some women lose their personality, they will not have attractive charm. Adrian thought so wildly until it was pulled back to reality by Britney's voice.
"Master!" Britney, who was sitting in his arms, grunted, and was a little dissatisfied because he was distracted.
"Sorry, Bubu, there are a lot of recent things, so I can't help but think of other aspects." Adrian coaxed and hugged her to kiss, and the girl quickly softened.
"We were talking about the concert just now, weren't we?" He stroked Britney's wet lips and asked with a smile.
"Yes," Britney licked the corner of her mouth playfully and teasingly after taking a bite of his finger, "I hope you can participate in my concert in New Orleans next month ."
"This year's world tour?" Adrian raised an eyebrow.
"Yes, starting from Louisiana, I'm going to travel the whole world!" The girl nodded excitedly, and then quickly added: "I don't need you to come in high-profile publicly, I just want to watch it at the concert. To you, master."
After talking about her making a pitiful look, what has been asked for as long as this look is done, Adrian will allow it.
Sure enough, he agreed after thinking for a few seconds: "Well, since it is my pet's request, there is no reason not to agree."
"Thank you, my master, I'm so happy." Britney jumped up and cheered immediately, holding Adrian and constantly kissing his cheek. In front of him, she was always easy to meet.
Adrian smiled and shook her head, and after being intimate with her for a while, she said another thing: "Since I talked about the World Tour, then I should also tell you something, about you Future arrangements."
He paused and looked at the girl for a moment. There was no other look in her eyes than waiting, a look of "I listen to you all".
"After the World Tour concert, I will arrange for you to go to university for further study. Stanford, la or NTU, it is still up to you to choose." Adrian continued.
Britney who unexpectedly followed his advice showed a reluctant look: "Why should I go to college? Should I give up my current career?"
"Of course not, my little pet." Adrian smiled and lifted her chin, Britney's reaction was also reasonable, any popular singer would not do it when he was in the sky. Things that are not related to career, not to mention the fact that pets have fully placed their feelings on Adrian, and the singer is more obsessed with the feeling of being surrounded by flowers and applause than ordinary singers.
"You must know that Bubu, teenagers like and worship idols are not picky, as long as they have appetite for them as long as they can resonate with them, but their parents and family are very picky, they hope their children like and The quality of the idols of worship is high enough. For example, the image should be healthy, there should not be too much negative news, not too much exposure and ostentation-this is why I oppose the determination of the **** route in the third album. It is not that no change is needed But if you change, you have to take it slowly, too fast, it will be easy to lose some of your fans. If there is no new fans to add in, your popularity will drop. And slowly changing gives them a process of adaptation, and they always To grow up, when you completely reveal the **** side, they will still pursue you, so to speak, do you understand?" Adrian asked very seriously.
Britney looked at him stupefiedly, first shook his head, but immediately nodded again.
"I-I understand part of it, although it is a bit confusing, but I understand part of it!" she said busyly.
"Okay, besides that, they want their children to like idols with a higher education level," Adrian continued. "So, Bubu, you know Hollywood stars, How many have a college degree? Less than 5%! So if you go to university for further study, first of all, this can give the public an impression that you still have to remember to enrich yourself when it is popular, which can change your image Better; second, you can give your young fans a time to buffer and grow until they or their parents can accept that you become more sexy; finally, you can take the time to find ways to improve yourself, such as how can a scholar be better Speak, or learn how to write and compose words-remember what I said? You have a certain talent, as a singer, how can you not try to write and compose words yourself?"
He stared at her, his fingers continually scratching on her smooth and tender face: "And there is only one problem to be solved, how to keep the current popularity during the time you go to university to study, for others It’s a difficult thing, but for me it’s a piece of cake. Letting you go to study is not to ignore your career. Some necessary programs and endorsements are still to be attended. Some necessary concerts and public welfare activities are still to be held. Produce two exquisite singles every year, make appearances in the media from time to time, etc. Of course, certainly can't keep everyone's popularity, but there is absolutely no problem in keeping the current status, do you believe me?"
As before, Britney stared at him for a while, then asked a question that was completely unrelated to the above: "Which one do you prefer me, Master? Now I still... go to university Me who has studied?"
Adrian smiled, holding her face in front of her eyes: "It doesn't matter, as long as you stay with me, as long as you are still my pet, I like you. All I planned, just To make you better, Bubu, you should be better, this is my reward for you."
Britney's mouth turned up, and she seemed to like the word "reward". She nodded: "Then go to university to study~IndoMTL.com~ After a pause, she suddenly buzzed again. Mouth: "But it will be more difficult for me to win an award at Grammy. "
Adrian couldn’t help laughing, she thought she was so obscure, but would he not know what she was thinking?
"Don’t worry, Bubu, your album sales are about to exceed 40 million. Grammy has to give an award anyway this year," he laughed. "Maybe he can’t keep up. Christine, but at least a short distance."
So far, because of the development of the East Asian market, Britney’s third album has sold nearly 40 million in the world, which has surpassed Madonna and has become the second highest-selling female singer in the world. Judging by the situation, Xian Nia over the first? Down is also very possible. Such a hot sale is so popular that Grammy has to give at least a consolation prize even if she is biased.
"Is that so?" Britney asked in disappointed blush without taking the blush out of tears.
"Okay, Bubu, this world is not perfect, you can't get everything, just like that." Adrian said, holding her face.
