Chapter Forty-Six: Borrowing the East Wind Again
After returning to the United States, Li Shenghao once again lived a student life in college. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
I get up early every day to practice martial arts, then go to the business school to study, shuttle between film and television studies and music majors in the afternoon, and occasionally go to the class of the APE professor to find out about the progress of Facebook.
As long as he has time, Li Shenghao tries to enrich himself as much as possible, especially in film, television and music. Anyway, his memory is good, no matter how much content he has, whether he has understood it or not, at least it is imprinted in his mind, as if it has become a mobile memory, or the kind with a very large capacity.
Before going to South Korea for Xiao Jing's birthday, on October 3, Li Shenghao visited the plush toy store again.
This time he came as the new owner, and the store has become Lee Sung-ho's personal property.
Through the relationship of Lena's mother, Li Shenghao used a small part of his own funds to buy plush toys in order to have a place to customize plush toys in the future, because many people's gifts are inseparable from plush toys.
This time it was for Park In-jeong's birthday on October 5 (Actually, Park In-jeong entered South Korea's S.M Entertainment Company as a trainee in 2005 after winning the gold medal in the youth song competition of South Korea's CMB channel program "Kiss Song Festival" at Anyang Art High School, but the author advanced Park In-jeong's entry into S.M in order to be an important auxiliary line in the future.) )
In order to show off from Hyoyeon's gift, Lee Sung-ho asked the staff at the toy store to design a plush toy modeled after the mermaid princess, and finally embroidered Park In-jeong's Korean name on the fishtail.
Li Shenghao also thought that Yu Li's birthday was on December 5, so he also prepared Yu Li's birthday gift in advance, in order not to favor one over the other, he helped Yu Li choose a plush toy based on Mickey, because Yu Li's favorite cartoon image is Mickey.
Tell the staff to send it on December 1 to be able to arrive in Korea before December 5, not too early or too late, or the birthday gift will be a bit out of character.
Lee Sung-ho's preferred place for weekends is to find his teacher, Maria Kelly.
Teacher's album has basically finished production, and only some finishing touches are left in the later stage, which is about to be released.
During this time, Lee Sung-ho's single has remained in the top 10 on Billboard, and even the top three for four weeks, although the time to reach the top is only one week.
It was after the two's Oprah talk show aired that in just one week, his singles sold nearly 1 million copies, and the cumulative number has now reached more than 3 million copies, which is better than the regular albums of many famous singers. It is estimated that after the release of Maria Carey's new album, more attention will be paid to the title song and another song directed by Lee Sung-ho.
Now that Mariah Carey's new album has begun to warm up in the market, which is very different from her previous album releases, in the end, Kelly still wants to help her student as much as possible.
It's hard to have such a student who she likes, and she always wants to help Li Shenghao as much as possible as a new teacher.
Now the diva's album doesn't need much publicity at all, her number of fans is now huge, and this time the production has been made with great fanfare from the beginning, a large part of the reason is because of Li Shenghao, and Kelly's new agency, which is also her move to re-enter the sky from the bottom.
After the discussion between Lis's mother and Kelly's management team, the publicity efforts will continue until the official release of this new album, and it is estimated that through these three songs, Lee Sung-ho should be able to make a big increase in the public's awareness.
The rest of his free time Li Shenghao will return to his home in the old Jinshan for a few days, one is to spend time with his two mothers, and the other is to find Meng Pani to have a small time together.
Lee Sung-ho knew that Pani had recovered a lot from her gloomy mood during this time, so he wanted to make her basically return to her previous cheerful state in as short a period of time as possible.
Calculating the time, it is estimated that she will only stay with her father and older siblings for more than a year, and then she will go to the strange South Korea alone to fight for her dream.
Although Li Shenghao didn't spend much time with her, Li Shenghao was obviously more active than before.
And if he has time, he will teach her a little bit of Korean, so that she can reduce the time to learn Korean after she goes to Korea, and she can also integrate into the trainees of S.M company as soon as possible.
With 2003 just around the corner, Lee Sung-ho is now looking forward to his single being a success at the upcoming 45th Grammy, and he's ready to start another project of his own.
Yes, Lee Sung-ho is ready to start a writing project, because if it is too late, it is estimated that he will have a conflict with the original author, and he does not want to make a negative impact because of the copyright issue. He hopes that through this writing project, the American public, especially young people, can truly understand themselves.
Li Shenghao had already asked Lisi's mother, and when he heard that his baby was going to start writing novels, he was completely speechless, but this child was a real surprise, but fortunately, their gods and scriptures were trained by him a lot.
After discussions with Lena's mother and Lis's mother, Lis's mother finally contacted an emerging online novel website in the United States, and agreed to provide a small column for Li Shenghao to publish his novels.
Lee Sung-ho intends to carry out this writing project through this form of online and continuously updated Internet, rather than the original author's method.
Under the banner of a newcomer in the recent North American music scene, Li Shenghao believes that it will definitely attract the attention of his fans, and then it depends on his writing skills, he believes that even if he completely copies the content of the original book, it will gradually attract many people.
What's more, Lee Sung-ho will add elements that he thinks of to make the contradictions and conflicts of the novel and plot more intense, especially in the fight scenes, and he wants to prepare for future movies.
Lee Sung-ho not only values this set of novels, but more importantly, the movies adapted from the novels in the future, which is his ultimate goal.
Although this movie was widely spit out by professional film critics and film magazines after it was made in the previous life, it really made the male protagonist the perfect lover in the hearts of thousands of girls, and with their strong support, the box office performance has risen all the way, breaking many records.
Lee Sung-ho understands that if the Celestial Empire wants to gain a foothold in Hollywood, it must have enough topical, sexual, and artistic works. Music is one way, and movies are another, which can get you noticed in the United States more quickly.
Li Shenghao insisted on walking on two legs, although it would be more tiring, but he had full confidence, the martial arts and kung fu taught to him by the master did give him a lot of help, although it was only 5 or 6 hours of sleep every day, but he did not feel tired at all, and the practice every morning could keep him energetic all day.
In early December 2002, the new album "Lucky Bracelet" by Maria Carey, the music queen who paid attention to the major media, was officially released.
This is her first album since leaving E.M.I. to join Ring World Music, and after last year's setbacks, Mariah Carey is determined to prove herself strongly.
Two songs composed by his proud student Modi, who have attracted everyone's attention recently, have finally torn off the veil of mystery and appeared in front of everyone.
The lyrics and composition of the first title track "ThroughTheRain" is Modi, although it is still a little immature in terms of arrangement, but the lyrics of this song are full of willpower, highlighting Mariah Carey's high-pitched voice, especially the transition from the third chorus to the first line at the end without breathing.
In this song, you can also hear Mary Carey's mastery in switching between true and false sounds. It's no wonder that the diva liked this song very much when she got it for the first time, it was indeed tailor-made for her, and it showed her strong willpower very appropriately.
Another song, "Yours", is a lyrical song of a different style, winding, winding, lingering, and stretching.
The biggest highlight of this song is that it shows a beautiful dolphin sound, and Lee Sung-ho also opened and hung this song because of the reason for this highlight. Dolphin sound is actually not a vocal skill, anyone can practice the method, but it is still the sentence "Who can sing better than Kelly?" ”
When it comes to dolphin sound, the first thing that comes to everyone's mind is the diva Maria Carey, which has almost become her Si person symbol. The songs with different styles of the two hands, coupled with Li Shenghao's own single, let everyone know that this young Celestial Empire's music creation ability is indeed good, and the style is not a problem for him, whether it is lyrical or pop music, it seems that he can control it.
Although there are still a lot of deficiencies, but looking at his age, it is quite out of his mind to be able to do this, there are several people whose singles can sell 3 million copies, and there are several songs created by newcomers who can become the title song of the singer's diva's album.
Maria Carey's album easily surpassed 240,000 copies in its first week of release, and the final sales exceeded 3.5 million copies, which shows the quality of the album and the purchasing power of its fans, and this album also helped Kelly gradually come out of the trough.
Under the influence of this album, Lee Sung-ho's single also sold Xiao Gao Chao again, allowing the single to continue to remain in the top ten on Billboard.
And another major piece of good news finally made Lee Sung-ho really gain a foothold in the American music industry and make a name for himself, and it also made Lee Sung-ho finally receive the list of nominations that he thought was difficult to obtain soon after.
Just a week after Mariah Carey's album was released, another American singer, North, officially informed the media that the title song of her debut solo album would also be chosen as a song written by Modi.
As soon as this news appeared, it quickly occupied the headlines of various music media, and also added the last important weight to Li Shenghao's final nomination and award.
