Chapter 370: Convince Tom

Chen Chufan watched the figures of Lao Cannon and Qiangzi disappear in front of him, the smile on his face gradually converged, and his expression became more and more serious.

It would be too false to say that Chen Chufan is completely stress-free. Speaking of which, Chen Chufan has not even held a concert of his own, and the only two concert experiences he has have been the "Future Idol Concert of Country M" with his classmates from Berke College of Music, and he was a guest performer at Zhang Wenyou's "Complete Wenyou Concert".

And now, the first concert in his life gave him only about 30 hours to prepare. Now he doesn't have a band, no backing singers, no stage, no tickets, and not even his agent, so it's definitely the craziest decision of his life.

But Chen Chufan firmly believes that he can succeed. Because he has the music cells inherited from Planet Decca, he has a super large lung capacity that has been genetically modified by music, and a good voice that has been genetically optimized, and more importantly, he has a ball ball! So all he is thinking about is how to make his concert as fully prepared and perfect as possible in the shortest possible time.

First of all, make sure you have a good band! Chen Chufan was running fast in his mind. It's not that renting the venue can be delayed, it's just that the problem of the venue Chen Chufan feels that it can only be entrusted to the record company, as those reporters questioned, he doesn't think he has the face to rent the green space in the center of the stadium tomorrow night as a stage.

But the top level that Universal Music Chen Chufan knows is only Tom who is far away on Hong Kong Island? Jackson. Calculating the time difference, it is only more than 6 o'clock in the morning on Hong Kong Island, far from working time. And Chen Chufan doesn't have Tom? Jackson's private number, so Chen Chufan can only wait until work time is up, and then talk to Tom through the company phone? Jackson Contact.

So Chen Chufan was going to call Lu Jia first. Looking for a band, the geniuses of Julie School of Music are definitely the best choice in Chen Chufan's heart. Chen Chufan has performed on the same stage with them, and he fully believes in those musicians who usually don't do their jobs. It only takes a day, or even less, of rehearsals to fully master all the repertoire he needs to prepare for tomorrow night's concert.

More importantly, Chen Chufan's solo concert is in country M, so he has no plans to sing the Chinese songs from his Chinese album at tomorrow night's concert, after all, the difference between Chinese and Western cultures, if you use Chinese songs to put together, it will inevitably greatly reduce the quality of the concert. And Chen Chufan has only composed four English songs, even if he adds "TheoneJustLastDance", which he has collaborated with Sarah Korna, it is only five, which is far from the repertoire required for a complete concert.

So Chen Chufan plans to use "Overture to Life" in his new album that has not yet been released. These new tunes, adapted by Lu Jia, have no lyrics of their own, and use a purely vocal interpretation. And because these pieces themselves are more classical and the instruments used are different from ordinary bands, it is definitely the perfect choice to ask Julie School for help.

Of course, Chen Chufan is also second-hand, after all, he is going to smash the signboard of the most influential music award in the music industry of country M, and he must take into account the attitude of those students at Julie School of Music. His concert doesn't have much to do with his classmates. If he can't finally get the support of the little geniuses at Julie, then he'll have to rely on Universal Records, as far as he knows. Universal Music has a few good bands.

With the train of thought in his mind, Chen Chufan immediately began to dial, and he didn't have much time to delay.

But before Chen Chufan could finish pressing Lu Jia's number, a Hong Kong Island number came in directly. The number was very unfamiliar, but Chen Chufan still quickly connected the phone, after all, his number was still very private, and he could be contacted through this number. Definitely not a stranger.

"Chen, oh my God! Are you crazy? You know what you said to those damn journalists? "The phone has just been connected, Chen Chufan still wanted to contact Tom just now but couldn't be reached? Jackson's voice rang from the phone. But apparently the gentleman was not in a good temper at this time. The roaring sound made Chen Chufan feel a little numb in his eardrums.

"Calm down, please calm down! Tom? Mr. Jackson! Besides, I only announced it ten minutes ago, how do you know now? Chen Chufan was not in a hurry to explain anything, but asked suspiciously. That's too fast, isn't it?

"Ten minutes? Do you know how many calls I've received from journalists in those 10 minutes? God, I can't believe you're so arrogant! Make the Grammy Awards a joke? Oh my God, is that really what you said? How do you calm me down? Do you know what you're doing? Do you know who you're arguing with? It's a Grammy! It's the M Country Recording Association! It is the annual award ceremony of the world's most influential music awards! Well, you suddenly announced that you were going to have a solo concert next to the Grammys, and you were going to put the Grammys to shame! And now there's still what you're called concert time, and, "Tom here?" Jackson paused, apparently counting the time.

"It's only 30 hours left, what do you want me to say? Have you thought about your future? Or maybe you don't want to be a singer anymore, but you're going to change your career to be a clown and entertain fans in the world, right? Or will you now explain to me what made you make such an irrational decision? "Tom? Jackson spoke as fast as a machine gun.

"Of course, Mr. Jackson! I have good reason! "Facing Tom who was so excited on the phone? Jackson, Chen Chufan was unusually calm and briefly explained the cause and effect.

"That's it! Okay, I guess the purpose of your call isn't just to get angry for no sense, right? After explaining, Chen Chufan opened his mouth and asked rhetorically.

Maybe it's Chen Chufan's composure and calmness, maybe it's Tom? Jackson had calmed his mind a little with his excited speech, anyway, Tom? When Jackson spoke again, he seemed much calmer, although the rapid speed of his speech revealed that his state of mind was still not peaceful at this time, but it was obviously much better than the roar just now.

"Okay, so what are you going to do now? Do you know? Because of your impulse, it may take you a year or even a year or two to turn around your image in the hearts of fans! God, I don't know what to say! Damn the Recording Society! Damn Columbia, Inc.! Damn Grammys! ”

After the excitement, Tom? Jackson began to curse non-stop, you must know that Chen Chufan is his ace singer, in his opinion, Chen Chufan is about to lose his image because of a moment of irrationality, which will directly affect the future income of Universal Music and his own good future. What's more, this matter happened at a critical juncture when the company was preparing to launch Chen Chufan's second record, and it was even more of a mess of the series of arrangements he had already prepared, so he definitely had enough reason to be angry!

"Mr. Jackson, do you mean it's impossible for me to turn the tables? Or in your opinion, I'm doomed! Tomorrow's concert is not destined to be a success, is that right? "Chen Chufan ignored Tom? Jackson complained frantically, and instead began a series of rhetorical questions.

"Of course! Do you still need to think about it? Your arms can't twist your thighs, not to mention that you only have more than thirty hours to prepare, and do you know how long the Grammys have been in the works? To put it bluntly, it's been at least half a year, and more importantly, they have a mature model, and they have all the superstars in the world! And you? What's there? You don't have the experience of a full concert! "Not even a brain, Tom? Jackson analyzed the situation of the two sides clearly.

Chen Chufan's expression began to become serious. He knew it was time for the crunch moment, and if he couldn't convince Tom? Jackson supports him, then tomorrow's concert will be difficult to start smoothly, and it will definitely not achieve the effect he wants.

So when Chen Chufan spoke again, his tone was unprecedentedly firm: "Are you wrong Tom? Mr. Jackson! You forgot, I have my music! Wait, don't interject yet, will you listen to me? If you've forgotten everything we've been through in our relationships, then it's important for me to remind you that I'm a miracle worker, and I love doing miracles. When Kalman? Walter questioned my music, I told him I would make him regret it with my music, did anyone believe I could do it at the time? No, what is the result? ”

"When I was successful in country M and my single hit a miracle in digital music sales, you all said that I shouldn't give up on the foundation of country M, because I would face difficulties of one kind or another when I returned to China, but what was the result? On the day I returned to China, can you imagine what I have achieved in the Chinese music scene so far? And how long did it take me? Not more than three months, right? Is this a miracle? So why do you think now that I can't continue to work a miracle? And why do you think I can't make the Grammy Awards a joke with my concert? Finally, I want to ask, did you ever think half a year ago that a Chinese singer could be nominated for three Grammy Awards in just half a year? ”

Chen Chufan's speech was not fast, but every word that came out of his mouth was heavy. Because those are all the results he has achieved through hard work, they are all miracles that he has created in just half a year, and they are the most convincing evidence. (To be continued......)
