For six weddings, the material for the MV is enough, but at the end of this day, the whole team is exhausted. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 So even though it wasn't too late for them to leave from their last wedding, the whole team didn't find another place to celebrate the success of six weddings in one day, and after packing up their equipment, everyone disbanded and went home to rest.

Although Xiao Yao, who was the on-site conductor the day before, was very busy, he finally had a fight dance with the groom of the professional dancer. Early the next morning, Xiao Yao and Sun Tingting appeared at Keith Craig's house in good spirits.

The day before, Betty Belette and Sun Tingting, the two ladies, were not assigned specific tasks, but just followed them through the whole process, so they were in good spirits. When Xiao Yao and Sun Tingting rang the doorbell of Keith Craig's house, it was also Betty Bellet who came out to open the door. At this time, Keith Craig was still sleeping in bed.

However, there were guests at home, and Xiao Yao must have come over to discuss something with them, so Keith Craig had no choice but to get up.

"Yesterday was a busy day, and you came here so early, aren't you tired?" Keith Craig, who had finished washing, yawned and greeted Xiao Yao listlessly.

Although Xiao Yao and Sun Tingting refused the couple's invitation to live at home, and they arranged for them to stay in a nearby hotel not far from their home in Beverly Hills, Keith Craig was a little surprised to come to the door so early in the morning.

"Sorry to disturb your rest. Xiao Yao said a little embarrassed, "But I'm going back to China soon, but I still have things to do, so I have to hurry." ”

"Anything else to do?" said Betty Bellet, bringing a few cups of coffee from the kitchen and handing them to the three of them, "Is it about the post-production of the music video for your song?"

"Thank you," Xiao Yao, who took Betty's coffee, nodded and thanked him, then shook his head and said, "It's not about the post-production of that song's MV." "Daydream" hasn't recorded an official studio version of that song yet, and without official audio, post-production simply can't begin. As I said, I'm going back to school in Huaxia soon, and I don't have time to help you with the post-production of the MV. Anyway, I've already told you the idea, and the material has been filmed, so when you have recorded the official version of the audio, it will be good to find a professional post-production team to do it slowly. ”

"Then what else do you have to do?" Keith Craig took a few sips of coffee, and he was a little more energetic, and sat up straight and asked Xiao Yao.

"I have a song of my own that I want to shoot a MV," Xiao Yao said, "I want you to help me contact someone and form a shooting team." In Los Angeles, I know you best, and you have a lot of connections, so I can only ask you for help. ”

"Ahem~" Keith Craig and Betty Bellett, who were drinking coffee, were almost choked by Xiao Yao's words, and looked at him in surprise and said, "You want to make another MV?

"No, you heard me right. Xiao Yao smiled, "Actually, I came to Los Angeles this time to take my girlfriend on vacation to take her to travel and relax." Their school gave her a week's vacation, and when her vacation was over, I would almost return to Huaxia at that time. We've been in Los Angeles for two days, then to Calabasas for another day, and then yesterday to the wedding. With three days left, she didn't have anything else she wanted to go to, so we planned to use the remaining three days to shoot a music video. ”

"Is three days enough?" Keith Craig asked, frowning, "Our band has shot a lot of music videos before, and from pre-production to post-production, none of them can be completed in three days.

"It's not three days, it's two and a half days. Today on the 27th, we will fly back to New York on the afternoon of the 29th at the latest, and Tiana will go back to school on the 30th. Xiao Yao corrected, "My plan is to complete the preparation work in one day today, and complete the shooting of the material in the next day and a half." Post-production, I can bring it back to Huaxia and do it myself slowly. My song is not released or listed, and the song and MV are put on the website for free to show people, so the quality requirements of the MV are not high, and it can even be said that it is not an official MV, just a song video. Yesterday we were able to shoot the footage needed for the MV "Sugar" in one day, so it should be no problem to shoot the footage for my video in a day and a half. ”

"If you don't release it and don't hit the charts, just shoot a video and show it to netizens for free, what do you want to do?" Keith Craig looked at Xiao Yao suspiciously, "What song is that? Can I listen to it first?"

"Of course," Xiao Yao nodded with a smile, "I need a guitar." ”

This time, Keith Craig didn't invite everyone to the music room, and went upstairs directly to get Xiao Yao an acoustic guitar down, and planned to sit comfortably on the sofa in the living room to listen.

"This song of mine is called 'American Airlines Broke My Guitar,' and I just wrote it last night. Xiao Yao took the guitar and introduced it a little.

"What does the title mean?" said Keith Craig and Betty Bellett. Listening to the title of this song, Xiao Yao is going to make trouble?

That's what the title of the song says. Sun Tingting on the side said with a smile, "You will know when you hear it." ”

Xiao Yao took the guitar and plucked the strings to try the sound, and then waved his fingers to play. The tune is simple, but smooth and catchy. As soon as Keith Craig heard it, he noticed that the song had a very American country music flavor.

"I flew from Yanjing to New York, with a layover in London. A little girl next to me said to her mother, "Mom, look, what are they doing?" The mother took one look and exclaimed, "Oh my God, is that how they carry their luggage?" I looked out the window of the plane and saw that the movement of carrying luggage on the ground was very horrible, they were throwing suitcases, and all the luggage was like flying in the sky..."

"What is this singing?" said Keith Craig and Betty Bellette.

“... American Airlines broke the guitar!"

As the last chord swept by, Xiao Yao smiled and looked at the two people sitting opposite him, "How is it?"

"You mean, what you sing in your song is true?" Keith Craig said as he looked at Xiao Yao.

"Of course," Xiao Yao pulled out his phone, brought up the interface of videos and photos, and handed it to Keith Craig. "I'll show you a video and a couple of pictures. ”

While they were watching, Xiao Yao also began to explain: "This video was taken when I came to New York, when I was transiting in London, and several American Airlines porters performed brutal operations on passengers' checked luggage. Those photos are what I saw when I arrived in New York, picked up my luggage, and opened the checked guitar case. ”

"You mean, the American Airlines porter brutally broke your guitar?" Betty Bellet looked at Xiao Yao and asked, "Didn't you complain?"

"Of course there are complaints. Xiao Yao said, "In fact, I have not only written a complaint letter, but also made a complaint call. However, American Airlines' New York and London branches and London airports have been passing the buck to each other. I know that the bellman is an employee of American Airlines, so the complaint letter and complaint phone number are mainly American Airlines. But so many days have passed, and American Airlines is responsible for compensation, not to mention taking responsibility, and there is not even a word of apology in the email that replied to me. I had no choice but to use my own way to get their attention. ”

"Originally, I wanted to go through the legal route to fight a lawsuit against American Airlines. Xiao Yao continued, "Through the criminal lawyer you introduced to me, Ms. Veronica Quinn, I consulted with a business lawyer at their law firm. The lawyer told me that in the United States, a lawsuit with a large corporation is a protracted war and a war of attrition, and whether you win or lose in the end, it will be a very long process, and many people will be dragged down in the process of litigation. I'm not an American, and I can't stay in the U.S. for a long time with them. ”

And then I thought, why don't I do this the way I do it best? What do I do best? Write songs! So I wrote this song last night. Xiao continued, "American Airlines is a giant listed company, and they need to maintain their image in the eyes of the public. As long as this song goes viral, I don't believe American Airlines will still be able to maintain this lofty attitude. In order to make this song more popular, I also want to make a video of it telling the same story, and upload it to the Internet along with the song. ”

It wasn't too late to return to the hotel last night, and Xiao Yao did follow up on his complaint that the guitar was damaged. The results are still not satisfactory, and the airlines are still pushing the blame. Xiao Yao, who was angry, suddenly remembered that there had been a similar thing in his previous life.

In a previous life, also because of the barbaric operation of the porter, a Canadian musician was broken when he checked in the guitar while taking a plane. After nine months of unsuccessful claims, he wrote a song and made a music video that he uploaded online. The video quickly went viral on the web, garnering an unimaginable number of views in just a few days. Its huge social influence even led to the decline of the airline's stock price, and the airline finally had to bow its head and admit its mistake under the pressure of public opinion.

Since the Canadian musician in his previous life could do it, Xiao Yao believes that he can do the same. Even if it's not for compensation, you have to give this breath anyway. However, Xiao Yao does not have the patience of the Canadian musician in his previous life who spent nine months defending his rights. So, Xiao Yao wrote the song that night. The title, musical style, and melodic melody are all borrowed from the songs of the Canadian musician in the previous life. Because Xiao Yao's departure, transfer, and destination, the passengers around him reminded him were different from the Canadian musician in his previous life, and he couldn't drive from London to the United States, so Xiao Yao couldn't copy the original lyrics of the song, but he just took the trouble to rewrite the lyrics with his own experience.

After listening to Xiao Yao's new song, Sun Tingting also knew about it, and when she learned that Xiao Yao still had plans to shoot a video, Sun Tingting immediately said that she didn't want to travel to other places anymore to relax, and supported Xiao Yao to shoot this video first.

So Xiao Yao decided to take advantage of the past two days to shoot this video. After all, it is an American airline, and the flight attendants on the flight and the Morton mother and daughter around them are all Americans, so it is better to find Americans to shoot on American soil.

"This is going to be a thing!" thought Keith Craig and Betty Bellette with some excitement.

In the United States, the biblical story of David and Goliath is one of the favorite stories of many. Although Keith and Betty are both big stars, in front of them, an airline is still as big as Goliath in front of David. So after hearing Xiao Yao's plan, both of them immediately expressed their support.

"As interesting as it sounds, we're going to join. In addition to the crew, you also need actors, right? We can star for free. The couple said to Xiao Yao with great interest.
