Since Brian's release from prison, Xu An has lived his busiest life since resigning from The New York Times. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In the morning, he was going to Bandai Records, in addition to following up the progress of the arrangement, he also had to record a mechanical dance video for Brian in the dance practice room here.

In the afternoon, he was at the Golden Rose Theater, watching everyone rehearse, and giving some advice by the way, Bruce was busy every day to sweat profusely, he wore many hats, he was an actor to participate in rehearsals, and he was also a director to direct the whole play, and he had to be responsible for choreography, since the new song came out in the studio, he had to take time to practice with everyone.

In the evening, Xu An seized the time to write, and he found that he had dug a little bit of a hole now, there are two works in the series alone, and "The Count of Monte Cristo" is another long novel.

And with the hot sale of "Twilight", there are already readers on the Internet who say that Xu An is not doing his job.

For fans of "Twilight", Xu An should prepare for the second part of the series, "New Moon", with peace of mind, instead of writing any other new works, let alone running to prepare for the stage play.

On top of that, there are many people who complain about this kind every day, and many people run to Xu An's personal page every day to leave messages, asking him to speed things up, or to ask about the progress of "New Moon", and for some book lovers, they can't wait to see the book on the market the next day.

Fueled by these loyal readers, Twilight reached number five on the New York Times bestseller list just three weeks after its release!

At this time, it is the sixth week of "Lovely Bones" landing on the top of the list, and it is not uncommon for two works by the same author to land on the bestseller list at the same time, but as Xu An's newcomer, judging from his age and the ranking of these two books, I have to say that this is a very rare thing.

Some people maliciously hope that this is the pinnacle of Xu An, but no one can predict that this is just the beginning......

At the same time, the second week after Thanksgiving, the Golden Rose Theatre Company was officially established at the Golden Rose Theatre on Broadway, with the founders of the company including Ann Hsu, Bruce and Douglas, and the company's main theater business.

Xu An mortgaged the copyright of two super-bestselling books to the bank and borrowed $1 million to invest in the new company, accounting for 40% of the company's shares, Bruce and Rachel pooled together 500,000 yuan, accounting for 20%, Douglas also took out 500,000 yuan, accounting for 20% of the shares, and Emily borrowed money from the family and subscribed for 10% of the shares, and the members of Bruce's troupe subscribed for 5% piecemeal, and finally the remaining 5% of the shares were used as a mobile to reward employees who contributed to the company in the future.

After the establishment of the new company, he signed contracts with the three founders, and Xu An exclusively authorized Golden Rose Company to operate "Mamma Mia", in addition to the company's profits, he will also get 15% of the profits from the script.

Bruce's troupe signed a contract with Golden Rose Theatre, becoming the first troupe to sign under the new company's name, and they will receive salaries and dividends from business activities in addition to the company's profits in the future.

Douglas, on the other hand, signed an ultra-long-term lease contract with the Golden Rose Company in his personal capacity, which stipulated that the Golden Rose Company would renovate the theater and purchase new equipment in exchange for the theater to be rented to the theater company for office and performance space at a very low price.

After the establishment of the company, there were many things, Douglas, as an old man who had been immersed in Broadway all his life, had rich experience, and became the company's top management, Matthew helped Xu An introduce professional legal and accounting personnel, and the first business after the establishment of the company was to invest in "Mamma Mia".

The $2 million was used to pay the salaries of the troupe and company staff during rehearsals, hire professional choreographers, lighting and sound engineers, customize the stage sets and costumes, and dedicate a portion of the renovation of the Golden Rose Theater.

Among them, the renovation part can't spend too much, so you can only save a little.

Therefore, with the funds of Bruce and Rachel, it is not enough to complete such a completely original musical.

When the company was established, although Bruce became more busy, everything was on the right track, busy, but busy but not chaotic, there was a professional choreographer, which could save Bruce a lot of effort, he just needed to grasp the general direction with Xu An and supervise the rehearsals of the troupe.

As Christmas approached, JFK International Airport, Ann and Taylor came to see Samuel and Sean off.

"Goodbye, Sean, Samuel."

Xu An and Taylor hugged the main creators respectively, and it took nearly a month for Samuel and Sean's music team to complete the arrangement of all the songs.

Originally, it wouldn't be so fast, but Brian's new album in Los Angeles was starting to prepare, so they had to work overtime to finish the soundtrack of the script first, and then leave for Los Angeles immediately.

"Goodbye, Ann, you really don't think about coming to live in Los Angeles? You're a writer by profession, and you can be in any city, aren't you? Samuel invited Xu An to Los Angeles again, and he always felt that it would be a pity that Xu An's talent did not develop in music.

Xu An shook his head with a smile and said, "Maybe I will go in the future, but not now." ”

"Well, remember what you said, and don't make us wait too long." Samuel patted Xu An.

Sean sent an invitation to Taylor: "Taylor, go and sing, you are born for this, don't waste your talent, come to Bandai Records, we can all recommend it for you." ”

In addition to attending classes, Taylor has been in the studio almost all the time, at first she just watched and studied, and in the later stage, she could even simply participate in the arranging work, which surprised a group of music producers, and after everyone got acquainted, Taylor also mentioned his dream, and also performed and sang in the studio.

And Taylor's talent has been recognized by everyone, and Sean even said that Taylor is not inferior to Brian's kind of talented singer!

Taylor's eyes were sparkling and he looked very excited.

Seeing this, Xu An was a little anxious, Brian still has a bet, and that bet includes the important role of the opening guest of Brian's concert, for this, Taylor is worth waiting a little longer.

But now he can't say anything, he can't stop Taylor from realizing his dream.

It's good that Taylor didn't directly agree, "Thank you, Sean, I'll think about it, and if I make a decision, I'll go to Los Angeles to find everyone!" ”

Soon, it was time to board, and Samuel and Sean walked into the boarding tunnel with the rest of the group.

In Los Angeles, what awaits them is not a vacation, but a more busy work, because just this morning, Brian's new album officially announced the name:

《boyfriend》！

The title song of the album is the song "Boyfriend" written by Xu An, and at the same time, this song will also be used as a promotional song for Brian's new album, which will be announced before the album is released, and Brian is also ready to use it to hit the US Billboard Hot 100 singles chart.
