Chapter 419, "Uptown-Funk"!
Inside the field. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The press conference officially began.
At the beginning, it was Jiang Lun who took the stage to bring a song "Proud Boy" to the hot scene.
At the same time, use this to promote "The Voice".
After the song, the host Huang Zhizhong came to the stage and humorously pulled Jiang Lun to talk about the idea of the new album and the story in it.
In the middle, a link to enjoy the music videos of the songs was arranged, these MVs were all filmed by Jiang Lun during his time in the United States, some drove a pickup truck on a deserted straight road, some played with a bunch of foreign girls on the beach, and some hung out in a nightclub.
At this time, Jiang Lun took the opportunity to get off the stage to rest and drink water, and just put down the water bottle, McNugget came up and took out a tablet, whispered in his ear, and turned on the video on the tablet for him to watch.
This video is the scene of Dong Dapeng's angry fan just now, seeing this scene, Jiang Lun couldn't help laughing, "Their flying fox people also came?"
"yes! We didn't send them an invitation at all!"
Mai Le said, "But Flying Fox Video is also one of the top five online media in China, will there be anything wrong with doing this?"
"There's nothing wrong with that!"
Jiang Lun shook his head and said, "There is a law, they also have to be cautious in their words and deeds, we are not children who have just mixed in the entertainment industry, and neither are they, everyone knows it." ”
"So ...... this video?"
"You can do it!" Jiang Lun waved his hand, "I don't care about talking about this now, by the way, remember to say hello to Weibo." ”
"Okay!
McNugget nodded and turned to leave.
The whole process of the press conference is inseparable from Jiang Lun, because he is the protagonist today.
Even if he invited some guests to help him, he had to chat all the time on stage.
After a round of guest support and fan interaction, Jiang Lun picked up the microphone and sang his second song today.
This song is not the title song and has not been exposed, today is the first time to show its face live, and the rhythm and melody of this song are very suitable for live interaction.
Stage.
Jiang Lun was left alone.
He took the microphone and said, "This second song is an English song, called "Uptown-Funk"!"
This Martian brother's "uptown-funk" won the top 14 consecutive weeks on the US Billboard Hot 100 singles chart in another world, and it is also the longest number one single.
In addition, "Uptown-Funk" won the top of the singles charts in more than 20 countries such as Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Ireland, and the United Kingdom, and set a record of 2.49 million media data streams in the United Kingdom in the week of release, with a total sales of 10 million throughout 2015, making it the world's best-selling song that year.
In another time and space, whether this song can still score such a high result is also what Jiang Lun is looking forward to.
And this song is jointly produced by eleven music masters in another world, funk music gods, this team is gorgeous and grand just by saying the name, and the music they jointly produced is a rare treasure in the music industry.
Funk is a strong, technically demanding rhythmic type, also known as black jazz.
In modern music, there is nothing more important than the expression of rhythm, and funk is arguably one of the most important components of modern music, which is typically characterized by a continuous melodic quadruple harmonic body, the basic element of which is the standard eighth note, a strong innovation of the four-note sixteenth note.
To become a competitive modern blues and R&B player, you must master the rhythm of this sixteenth note.
So the most popular modern hip-hop, hip-pop, R&B, etc. are all sublimations and derivatives of funk.
"Bang, bang, bang......"
The prelude came, and the drum beat was simple and clean, but it made people want to shake their legs uncontrollably.
"Doodoo ......"
There was a male voice of "Dudu" in the background harmony, and Jiang Lun also changed his previous performance and began to writhe on the stage, and more than a dozen dancers came out of the background, dancing what seemed to be a dance of the last century, but it was very novel.
"this-hit-that-ice-cold!"
Jiang Lun put on sunglasses and pointed at the fans and media reporters in the audience, and his body movements were very exaggerated, like a prodigal son in a nightclub.
And Jiang Lun copied the dance steps in the MV of the original song, although he can't dance, but it is not difficult to learn it, and when he showed this dance step to the choreographer at today's press conference, he was directly scorched by his demonic and stiff shaking legs and dancing thunder, and swore that if he went out and walked like this on the street, he would definitely be beaten.
Michelle Fareifer in the original lyrics was changed by Jiang Lun into this world-famous actor and model known as the world's number one beauty, and he doesn't know who the original Michelle Fareiver is.
There is only one QQ music left in the second-hand book to listen to songs and watch MVs, and a few video software to watch videos, and all other functions have been stopped, and it can't be verified, so whether it is fictional or real, he directly changed it to the real existence of this world - Lucille Jennifer!
It just so happens that this Lucille Jennifer is also a blonde and white-skinned beauty, and if possible, when the song "Uptown-Funk" is made in the MV, I hope to find her to play the heroine.
The lyrics of the song "Uptown-" are also jealous and narcissistic, and if you don't understand it, you won't say it, but all fans and foreign media who understand what he sings are showing a look of crying and laughing below.
“got-to-kiss-myself-i\'m-so-pretty!i\'m-too-hot!(hot-damn!)”
(Beautiful women are about to fall in love with me, my brother is so handsome, my brother is so sexy and so hot!)
When Jiang Lun sang "say-my-name-you-know-who-i-am" (chant my name, you know who I am), the fans immediately shouted: "Jiang Lun! Jiang Lun ......"
Some of the reporters next to him were happy to hear it, and some were dumbfounded, but the camera kept taking pictures "clicking".
"girls-hit-your-hallelujah!"
The repetition of several sentences in a row, especially the last word "hallelujah", and the same repetition of "\'cause-uptown-funk-gon\'-give-it-to-you!" (because this uptown funklore is dedicated to you) has achieved a certain brainwashing effect, which is magical and impulsive.
Jiang Lun sang, walked to the far left side of the stage, and pointed to the fans in the audience while shaking his legs and dancing on tiptoe exaggeratedly: "Don\'t-believe-me-just-watch!"
Then he took a few steps to the side, still pointing at the fans and singing, "Don\'t-believe-me-just-watch!"
Then, he walked around the stage, walked from the fan area to the press box, and interacted with the dancers and staff behind him, which was the sentence: "Don\'t-believe-me-just-watch!
And one sentence is higher than the other, and the other is more passionate than the other.
“hey!hey!hey!oh!”
Jiang Lun struggled to sing a high note and writhe with the dancers.
He didn't finish the song, and that was the end of the song.
Watching such a performance on a hot day, even if there is air conditioning in the house, makes everyone unable to feel cool because of the blood boiling all over the body.
"Turn the press conference into a concert, I'm afraid only Jiang Lun has the ability!"
Offstage, a reporter said with a wry smile, "It's all about this song, this style stage is suitable for live performances." ”
"Yes, how can ordinary people write such songs, look at the expressions of those foreign reporters, I feel glorious for Jiang Lun!"
Another reporter chimed in, "Especially since it's still an English song, it's enough for them to be surprised for a while." ”
Next, Jiang Lun answered some questions from reporters, accepted gifts from fans, and gave a set of albums worth more than 200 to the fans at the scene.
At the end of the press conference, he sang "Hotel California" with his guitar, and the whole event ended here.
As soon as he returned to the lounge, Wu Chaoyang came in happily, "Congratulations! Do you know how many albums have been pre-sold?"
"How many?"
Jiang Lun was already mentally prepared, but he still asked, "How much?"
"800,000 sheets!"
Wu Chaoyang was about to jump up with excitement, "A total of 800,000 copies! This first stage of pre-sale is eight times more than the total sales of your first one!"
Jiang Lun was also in shock, this first phase of pre-sale started two weeks ago, and it was only sold online, the most basic digital version of the album 20, physical naked disc 35, this is the cheapest data, but I didn't expect to sell 800,000 copies.
However, he quickly woke up and smiled, "It must be the digital version that accounts for the majority, and this time it is global sales, this number is not high!"
"Haha! Then you guessed wrong!"
Wu Chaoyang said with a smile, "The digital version is only 200,000, and this data is only the pre-sale volume in Huaxia, and the pre-sale data of overseas countries has not been counted yet!"
"Really?"
Jiang Lun was really stunned this time, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Wu Chaoyang kept talking beside him, and finally saw that Jiang Lun didn't seem to listen at all, so he shook his arm, "Hey, hey, you haven't gotten used to it yet?"
"Uh!" Jiang Lun came back to his senses, "What did you just say?"
"I said ......"
Wu Chaoyang smiled, "Forget it, it's just some news, and you don't like to care about this." ”
"Oh! I thought there was something!"
Jiang Lun said, "I'll watch the news myself!"
"Okay, you rest for a while, and I'll call you again when the celebration begins!"
After Wu Chaoyang finished speaking, he left the room.
Jiang Lun took out his mobile phone and browsed the news on the Internet at will.
Take-off: "Jiang Lun's third album, focusing on English!", "The live performance at the press conference is refreshing!"
Le News: "Jiang Lun's new special release live report: celebrity funk shook the audience!"
World Entertainment: "Foreigners are dumbfounded!
Yida News: "Jiang Lun's new biography pre-sold 800,000 yuan: breaking the historical sales record after 00 years!"
……
The media did not hesitate to praise him, and the words were extremely beautiful, and those official Weibo on Weibo also supported him very much, and the big Vs came out to praise him.
Fans are even more proud, and they keep brushing the topic, which directly causes "Jiang Lun", "Jiang Lun's Live Conference" and "Jiang Lun's New Album" to become rare hot search headlines, winning the top three.
Of course, there are fans and blacks, and all kinds of sunspots are also active in hot comments, and they spare no effort to show off their underground IQ.
Jiang Lun has always scratched his nose at these, he won't look at it, the world is already so bad, happiness is a day, and unhappiness is also a day, why let yourself go to see those dirty things that affect your mood?
And the sales of 800,000 pre-sold have already slapped them in the face, and it is completely unnecessary to be angry with the zombie water army.
By chance, Jiang Lun caught a glimpse of a piece of news related to his press conference, but not related to him - "Dong Dapeng is angry and fanning, suspected of internal discord!"
There's video, there's dialogue, and there's justified third-party descriptions.
In the video, after Dong Dapeng slapped Liang Huan, he scolded angrily: "Are you annoying? Don't quarrel in front of me, okay?"
"You ...... man"
Liang Huan looked confused, looking at Dong Dapeng and didn't know what to do, he could only rub his face and muttered quietly on the side.
As a result, Dong Dapeng heard it, and continued to chase after him and asked, "What do you mean? If you don't accept it? What's the matter? Let's fight? I'm on fire, I'll sue you, don't force me to sue you!"
The video is over here, and I don't know what happened later, the two of them made such a fuss, and they didn't know their personal situation, but the fans on Weibo were torn apart.
Afternoon.
The official Weibo of Flying Fox Video issued a notice, and Liang Huan took over the hosting of the talk show "Vicious Chatter", and Dong Dapeng was fired.
For the entire Weibo hot discussion, this is just a very small thing, and the hottest thing today is Jiang Lun's album, so whether it is Dong Liang and the two or Feihu Video, they can't squeeze in the hot search, and they don't even have a chance to enter the top 20.
Jiang Lun's celebration banquet for the new album lasted until four o'clock in the afternoon, and he entertained a lot of people and drank a little.
After lying in the car and sobering up for more than an hour, he was woken up by McNugget.
"What time is it?"
Jiang Lun rubbed his eyes and asked.
"It's past five!" said McNuglet.
"So early...... Let me sleep a little longer!"
As he spoke, Jiang Lun closed his eyes again.
"Miss Lin called and asked when you were going to see her!"
"Who?"
Jiang Lun opened his eyes and looked at Mai Nuo, and then remembered what he had promised Lin Yong, "Yawn! You call her back, I'll go over to see her in an hour, first find a private club where you can take a bath, I'll take a shower and brush my teeth, I'm full of alcohol, and I can't see her directly!"
"Good!"
McNugget immediately called Lin Yong back, and then drove to find a place to take a bath.
Jiang Lun squinted for a while, woke up again, and it was already time to get out of the car.
His arrangement was very secretive, and the package was so tightly wrapped that he didn't even recognize him from the reception at the door, but as soon as he entered the door, he couldn't help but be shocked.
Because the store is actually "Uptown-funk" that he just launched today!
The song ...... Has it already started to spread? (To be continued.) )
