Chapter 230: The Norton Show

didn't know that the big leader helped them solve a misunderstanding, and the Black Hole Band completed the performance perfectly.

At the end of the exchange performance, all the actors who participated in the performance came to the stage to receive the leaders of both sides, drawing a successful end to this bilateral meeting.

The British side prepared a ball between high-level leaders, and the delegation went straight to the holiday.

After almost a week in London, most of the time in the hotel, the mission was successfully completed, and with the holiday, of course, it was necessary to relax.

Zhang Rong and the others came to London in advance, but because the delegation management was very strict before and after the meeting, Cao Wu and the others could not see Zhang Rong and them at all.

When the task is done, it is much easier for everyone.

Cao Wu found the head of the Jiang troupe and applied for it, saying that the band would stay in London for a few days and not go back with the group.

Captain Jiang also expressed his understanding that the British media who wanted to interview the Black Hole Band had already squeezed their heads, and they stayed for a few days for interviews, and it was expected that they would participate in the event.

As interviews with the band appeared in newspapers and magazines, and BBC television also broadcast news of the exchange performances, the band began to be known by more and more British people under the media publicity and the audience's interest.

And as the full version of "We Are the Champions" began to go viral on social media, Black Hole quickly gathered a young following.

Fans who already knew them popped out Black Hole's performance at the Woodstock festival on social media, which attracted more attention.

Xinghai was originally exploring the British market, and the songs of the Black Hole Band have already landed on the Spotify platform, but the number of plays and downloads in the UK has not been high.

However, with the gradual popularity of the Black Hole band, the number of plays and downloads of their music has also begun to rise rapidly, and the biggest increase is actually their physical album.

At the beginning of the year, the company signed a contract with a small distributor in Edinburgh to sell 10,000 albums here, and only a few hundred copies were sold until the conference, but since the conference ended, 5,000 copies have been sold in just one week.

The distributor was originally a money-presser shop, but this time the first batch of payments was quickly settled, and he was also ready to order 20,000 albums.

The media with a keen sense of smell has noticed that there has been a lot of talk about this band from the Far East lately, and the invitations from the print media have not ended, and the invitations from the television media have also followed.

"Welcome to today's guest, the famous band from China, Black Hole!"

The Norton Show is the UK's most popular talk show, with many celebrities appearing on it, including host Graham Norton, the country's most popular host.

Some Britons even say that you may not know who the Prime Minister is, but you certainly don't know who Norton is.

Hua Guohong's semi-circular sofa, four glasses of ice water on the same Hua Guohong's small coffee table, Norton and the enthusiastic audience applauded together to welcome the four members of the Black Hole Band.

"Welcome, please take a seat. Norton said in broken Chinese.

"I think it's better for you to speak English. Lele said half-jokingly in English.

The audience laughed, and Norton deliberately made an embarrassed appearance and shrugged his shoulders: "That's great, this lady's accent feels familiar to me, wait a minute, let me guess, do you have Nordic ancestry?"

"No, I just went to university in Sweden. ”

"Oh, beautiful country, fascinating culture. Norton sat on his chair and said with a smile: "I am honored to participate in this high-level exchange meeting between China and the UK, and I also watched your performance on the spot, which is wonderful!"

"Thank you. ”

"That's true. Noticing that the response from the audience was not enthusiastic enough, Norton turned around and explained to the audience: "To be honest, like many people, I didn't know much about this Eastern rock band before, but I saw the show...... Oh my God, if you haven't watched the video, you must watch it...... I can only describe it as magical. ”

"I'm a fan of yours. Norton got up and shook hands with the others one by one, and the audience burst into applause.

"I prefer to call you artists, I have a question, in the performance, you have a total of five works, each of which is full of artistry, full of cultural beauty, what is it that makes you create such wonderful works?"

Cao Wu spoke: "Actually, this is not a work created by our band alone, but from the entire cultural exchange group, the result of the joint efforts of everyone, many excellent seniors gave us guidance and help, and the performance was also completed by three large orchestras with us, we just provided creativity." ”

"It's a wonderful idea, I never thought that rock music could be combined with Chinese culture, and it is so harmonious, although I don't understand your language, this fresh experience is enough to make me interested in Chinese culture. ”

……

In the following interview, Norton cleverly chatted with each member for a while, humorous and took care of the emotions of the guests and the audience.

The differences between the cultures of the two countries made the interviews laugh a lot, and the spread of culture was already going on in the process of questions and explanations.

"Are you thinking of making an album in English? Because I know you've written several really good songs in English, including 'We Are the Champions.'" ”

"There are plans for this in the future, but we have to finish our studies first, and we don't know if the British people will be able to accept an exotic oriental band like ours. ”

"Haha! Of course I will, the British have the strongest yearning for art in Western Europe! I will definitely buy your album myself anyway. ”

"Actually, we have brought ...... today"

"Oh my! Great!" Norton took the album in surprise, showed it to the camera, pointed to the handwriting and smiled excitedly, "Look! It says, to our friend, Mr. Graham Norton! we are friends! we are champions! haha!"

……

After two more days in London, the band went their separate ways, long enough.

"The Strongest New Band" is already in a hurry and is about to smoke, and Lele has to rush back to take the exam.

Hurry up and finish recording the show, and after recording the show, I will be free, go back to Xinjiang to do my graduation thesis, and give myself a vacation, Cao Wu feels that he has not slept for a long time.

By the way, it seems that I can't go back to Xinjiang, and the band's English album plan is also on the agenda, and Niu Li is also preparing to enter the British and American markets with a new album next year!
