After returning home, Xu An immediately sent an invitation to his readers on the Internet:
"On January 3rd, Golden Rose Theater, "Mamma Mia" audition, I'm waiting for you on Broadway!"
Xu An's followers just reached the million level some time ago, and many people are paying attention to him, especially his readers, and everyone is looking forward to his latest status, so when he posted the invitation, someone started commenting as soon as possible. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Book a ticket!"
"Our family is on vacation to New York during the New Year, can we bring my family there?"
"Ann, why can't you focus on writing? Did "New Moon" start writing? When will it be available? ”
"I'm in Canada, do you have any plans to come to Canada to perform?"
The number of reviews increased rapidly, and most of them expressed their anticipation and appreciation, and some readers said that they did not buy it, thinking that he should focus on the creation of the new book instead of making some musicals!
Of course, it is inevitable that some people are not optimistic or even sneering, after all, among the more than one million people who pay attention to him, there are those who like him and his works, and there are also those who hate him, Xu An once stumbled upon Andrew's figure, and the Washington Post also has reporters who are always paying attention to him.
Soon after Xu An's news was released, someone @Lloyd.
And Lloyd also seemed to be very relaxed, and responded immediately: "Do you want to deceive the reader and pay for your ignorance?" If that's okay, then I admit that anyone can write a stage script, at least only if you're famous, someone will pay for you! ”
In the past month, Xu An has often posted his status on the Internet, updating and announcing the progress of the new drama, Lloyd will sneer almost every day, Xu An will sometimes-for-tat, and Lloyd will speak more and more bluntly and more and more politely.
After seeing Lloyd's new speech, Xu An replied unceremoniously: "I think you are the first person who needs to watch our performance, so that you can learn a lot, at least with your mind, you will never be able to write such a good script in your life!" ”
Not to be outdone, Lloyd replied: "Ignorance is fearless, you interpret this sentence with your own actions, I bet that your performance will not last long, and it will not even be profitable, do you dare to bet?" ”
Seeing this kind of remarks that he didn't know whether he was alive or dead, Xu An couldn't help but sneer, "Mamma Mia" couldn't be performed for long? Can't make a profit yet?! He quickly typed a paragraph on the keyboard and sent it, "The Golden Rose has 821 seats, 28 boxes, and after the performance, the attendance rate will be no less than 800 seats, at least for two months, Mr. Lloyd, do you dare to bet?" The loser goes to New York Times Square to run naked! ”
After Xu An's words were sent, Lloyd didn't have time to comment, and netizens were the first to go crazy.
New York Times Square, streaking!
Sounds so exciting!
Many people are crazy @Lloyd, and some people say that he doesn't dare to bet, so he goes to be a turtle with a shrunken head, in short, all kinds of instigation, agitation and all the laws are played, and there is only one purpose, which is to get Lloyd to agree to this bet.
And Lloyd did not disappoint, not only agreeing to the bet, but also reducing the time limit to one month.
"One month, 90% attendance is enough, Xu An, I will let you know, what is a stage play!" Lloyd's judged by his own professional experience, an inexperienced playwright, an unknown theater company, and a dilapidated theater on Broadway off Broadway, where a new play is released, let alone 90% of the attendance, can be considered a success if it can be 50%!
Lloyd's knowledge of these are all announced by Xu An on the Internet during this time, there are stills from rehearsals, and there are also theaters that are being renovated, Lloyd has long looked down on this poor crew, he is a professional screenwriter, and one of the top screenwriters on Broadway, and his masterpiece "Crazy Girl" has been performed at the most prestigious Metropolitan Theater on Broadway for two consecutive years.
So Mr. Lloyd had enough capital to despise Xu An.
Seeing Lloyd's fight, Xu An no longer bothered with him, this bet Lloyd could not deny at all, and millions of netizens on the Internet would supervise Lloyd for him.
At this time, Xu An found that the actress named Belial had forwarded her first status and was mobilizing her fans to go to Golden Rose to cheer Xu An.
This girl is very interesting, Xu An doesn't know her at all, but she seems to think of herself as a female swordsman in the Middle Ages, and has been helping Xu An speak, Xu An sent her a few private messages, and she didn't reply.
This made Xu An a little confused.
At the same time, Brian also reposted Xu An's status, compared to Xu An's just exceeded one million followers, Brian is a complete star, and his Twitter followers exceeded the 10 million level a long time ago.
Every status he posted, every retweet, was followed by countless people.
"Ann, the copyright to the 22 soundtracks of "Mamma Mia", when will they be sold to me?!"
Brian's words have attracted the attention of many people, the copyright of the 22 soundtracks, not to mention the quality of these songs, at least these songs are all original, just this point, it is the high score of Broadway.
Not to mention anything else, the copyright and production cost of 22 songs is a lot of money, and the low-cost production can't afford to hire someone to write the lyrics and compose the music!
As for Brian's mention of buying the copyright, everyone can laugh it off first, friends just help each other, and no one can guarantee the quality of these songs.
After Xu An saw it, he replied: "I'm sorry, Brian, the copyright of these songs is not sold, and as compensation, I can write a few songs for you alone." ”
The 22 soundtracks of "Mamma Mia" are taken from the classic pop songs of the ABBA band, Brian took a fancy to it at a glance and wanted to buy the copyright, Xu An originally agreed to sell it, but after thinking about it, he decided to keep it himself, he wanted to ensure the integrity of the copyright of the script.
Brian was not ambiguous, many of them were not suitable for him to sing, and it was a pity that Xu An didn't want to sell them, but this did not prevent him from taking the opportunity to blackmail him.
"At least ten! The level can't be lower than the "boyfriend" you wrote for me! ”
As soon as this remark came out, there was an uproar on the Internet.
The name of Brian's new album has been announced, and it is "Boyfriend"!
Generally speaking, the single with the same name as the album is usually a masterpiece carefully prepared by the singer, and Brian has to hit the charts with this single, which shows that at least in the eyes of Brian and the team behind him, as well as Bandai Records, this is a good song!
And it has to be a good song that is no less than the title song of Brian's released album!
Brian has more than one song in the top 10 of the Billboard, and although he has not won the championship, his strength is undoubted among the new generation of male singers.
The title song that can make him approve is definitely not far behind.
Now it seems that this song was written by Xu An!
This cannot but be surprising.
"Bubu, let's talk about the details, is the title song of the new album really written by Xu An? That author? ”
"Just kidding, is this song any good? When will the trial version be released! ”
"Haha, Ann is not only good at writing books, but also writing songs, I like it!"
When most people expressed their surprise, one user's speech made everyone stunned, "Boyfriend, so Ann and Bubu are in a relationship?" I feel like there's a lot of story behind this CP......"
Brian's nickname in the fan base is Bubu, and his gay sexuality was announced when he first debuted, and everyone knows that now Xu An wrote a song called "Boyfriend", which Brian used as the title single of the new album.
Everyone started to associate with it!
