Probably influenced by Julie's Maserati last time, Lin Mingyang got himself a quadrunder mountain sports car during the filming. Because this all-terrain vehicle does not require a driver's license, and there are no traffic police in the desert. When filming in the Mexican wilderness, every night after the crew finished work, he took Angelina to drive through the vast flat sand, and had a lot of fun.

Fun was originally the natural surname of a boy of Lin Mingyang's age, and Angelina Jolie is also an adventurous and exciting person, so the two secretly dated when they went out to drag racing, and the other members of the crew didn't notice it. This secret underground romance gave the two enough stimulation that both planned to keep the relationship in this state.

Because the film is going to be released in February 03, Lin Mingyang is busy filming from Christmas to New Year. In mid-January, all the filming of the film was over, and Lin Mingyang ushered in a short leisure, and Ackes brought him good news at this time.

Lin Mingyang looked at the envelope in his hand that was sealed with the bronzing font, and there was a difficult expression of confidence on his face. "Are you sure this is an invitation from the Grammy organizing committee?"

"That's right, it's not a joke of some boring person, and it's not a trap set up by a media reporter." Ex can understand Lin Mingyang's feelings at this time, he knows that the surprise component is more than honor, Exx, who used to be the producer of "Youth Musical", knows that Lin Mingyang is very talented in music, but that is only manifested in the songs of the film. In a standard sense, Lin Mingyang's current identity is not a musician, although he has a good voice.

"What's wrong with the fact that they just invited you to be a guest on the show, and they didn't ask you to accept the award?" Although the Grammys are called the "Oscars of the music industry", they are not the real Oscars after all, for which Ex has also checked the relevant information, "There are really few such examples, I have to say that the Grammy organizing committee favors you this time!" ”

"Shouldn't I be honored?" Lin Mingyang was not as excited as he imagined.

"Among so many veteran musicians and big-name singers, I think they just took a fancy to your fame during this period of time and asked you to sing a song to make it popular!" A basin of cold water poured down by Exx, which made Lin Mingyang's already not very excited heart immediately cool by half.

"So what am I going to do, make a clown on stage for people to make fun of?"

"Felix, how did you have such an idea?" Ex suddenly realized that what he had just said seemed to have misled Lin Mingyang, "I thought your hobby of music was just an amateur, are you really going to release an album by yourself?" ”

"Don't you think it's a joke for an amateur music lover to go to the Grammys and sing in front of so many professionals?"

Ex put away the smile on his face very seriously, "I promise you that this is definitely not a joke, you must know that the Grammys are one of the most influential music awards in the world, and to be able to perform on that stage is something that many people dream of." ”

"But as you just said, I'm not going to be taken seriously there!" Lin Mingyang looked at Ex puzzled, "They only value my fame, and I don't want to be a tool for them to attract the attention of the audience and the media." ”

"But I don't think so, what I just told you is just the idea of the organizing committee, but that doesn't mean that the audience will think the same way." Ex shook his head: "What I want to emphasize with you here is the concept of an asymmetric caste advantage. When I was a student in New York, there was a singing contest held at the school, and many professors from the School of Music signed up to participate, but in the end it was a polymer professor from the School of Physics who won. It just so happened that my student organization was in charge of the preparation of the competition, so I watched the whole final, and the professor who studies polymers didn't sing the best, but do you know why he won the championship? ”

"Does this have to do with what you call the asymmetrical caste advantage?" Lin Mingyang naturally thought of this.

"I was also very strange at the time, but I found out later in the process of talking to one of the judges. It turns out that before each contestant comes to the stage, the host will briefly introduce the background information of the contestant who will come on the stage next, and the judges here are very professional, which I am sure. The reason why they finally gave the championship to the professor of the physics school was because everyone thought that he was a guy who studied polymers, and it was already very good to be able to sing to such an extent. And those professors from the conservatory, these expert judges are always able to pick out some shortcomings. ”

"The amateurism you show in music is because you're already very professional in writing and acting. When you're standing on the stage of a Grammy, the people in the audience and the audience in front of the TV don't measure you by the standards of a professional singer. If you can do something unexpected at this time, then you will be the focus of the whole award ceremony. ”

Seeing the thoughtful expression on Lin Mingyang's face, Ex knew that he had understood what he meant, "Think about it, what a wonderful opportunity this will be. Many years later, people have long forgotten what awards this year's Grammys won, but they can only remember that at the awards ceremony, amateur music lover Felix Lin sang a moving song, and the beautiful melody still lingers in everyone's ears. ”

"You think I can?" Lin Mingyang asked uncertainly.

"If you're not sure, then we'll just give up!" Ex felt that when necessary, it was necessary to "stimulate" Lin Mingyang, so as to stimulate his unknown potential.

"The other party has no track restrictions?" Lin Mingyang's eyes began to glow.

"The requirement is an original song, and the song is reported a week in advance, so that they can arrange dubbing." As soon as Exx saw Lin Mingyang's expression, he knew that there must be a drama in this matter.

"What if I suddenly 'get sick' on the day of the rehearsal?"

"Then I'll be in charge of convincing the organizing committee to let you directly participate in the live singing!" Ex winked at Lin Mingyang very tacitly, and the two foxes, one old and one young, set the "trap" for designing the Grammy organizing committee.

――――

In order to achieve the "blockbuster" effect that Ex said, Lin Mingyang had to make a very careful selection of the songs he sang, and finally he set his sights on a song that had more than 400 million global video views on Youtobe in 2010 and ranked first.

The time interval allows Lin Mingyang to "borrow" this song with confidence, and the charm of this song is not just as simple as making a 15-year-old Justin Bieber popular and making him the hottest idol in the world. The song won the best awards at the 2010 MTV Awards, the American Music Awards, and the European Music Awards. Although this song does not represent all excellent music, the point is that it is one of the representative works of later creation and music concept transformation, it shows the most cutting-edge development style of European and American music in the future, and now taking out this song can definitely cause a sensation and even trigger a new musical trend.

"Mr. Felix's song, I can't comment on how good or bad it is!" After listening to Lin Mingyang's "baby", the well-known musician Harvick, who was specially invited by Ex from New York, did not make a judgment on the quality of this song, but gave a very special evaluation.

"The electronic and rhythmic style of the song is obvious, and it's obviously a very creative and courageous attempt compared to current pop music."

By electronic, Harvick refers to the use of increasingly advanced synthesizers to compose and orchestrate music, and to use them in musical styles. You must know that at this time, electronic style music has just become a new hot spot in European and American pop music. The rhythmization of this song also draws on the development of technology, adding genres of music including blues, hi-pop, dance music, rock and roll, so in Harvick's view, Lin Mingyang's song is very unique.

Of course, Lin Mingyang does not expect the current musicians to praise this song from the future, because new trends and changes always need time to slowly grind in. Being able to get a "unique" evaluation from a musician like Harvick, Lin Mingyang's goal has been achieved.

As Ex said, he sings as an amateur musician on the Grammy stage, so he strives for nothing more than "being different", and as for the quality of the song, the audience will give the most fair evaluation.

"I think it's best to have a swing in your song, so that you can fully mobilize the rhythm of your song." After all, Ex has supervised musicals like "Youth Musical", and he has a lot of experience in this area. "With a few break dancing masters around you, this kind of performance is even more perfect!"

――――

The 45th annual Grammy Awards kicked off under the bright night sky of Los Angeles on January 23, 03, and the Staples Center was full of people, and 105 television stations across the United States were broadcasting the annual music festival in parallel. In the rehearsal the day before, Lin Mingyang unexpectedly "fell ill", and then he was absent from the entire rehearsal.

In front of the chairman of the Grammy organizing committee, Ecks tearfully expressed how much Lin Mingyang himself attaches importance to the stage performance of this award ceremony, how hard he trains, how much he loves music, and how regretful he is for missing the rehearsal.

The recording of the mobile phone that Ex brought back made Lin Mingyang almost burst his belly with laughter, he didn't expect Ex to be able to speak such sensational language at all, he could even imagine the expression on the face of the chairman at that time. He finally came to the conclusion that the other party was not impressed by Ex's sincerity, but defeated by his cheekiness.

Ex himself said that the pressure was not great, anyway, his goal had been achieved, the more the other party despised him, and in the end, the stronger the effect of Lin Mingyang's blockbuster on the stage, and he even couldn't wait to see what kind of expression the chairman would have on his face after watching Lin Mingyang's performance.

Lin Mingyang only attended the Grammy Awards as a guest performer, so the organizers did not arrange for him to walk the red carpet, but when he entered the venue, he was still discovered by a group of sharp-eyed reporters.

At this time, the red carpet catwalk has ended, and the big-name superstars who came to participate in the awards ceremony have already entered, and finally "caught" an interview subject that can attract the attention of readers, this group of reporters does not care whether the Grammys are music awards or film awards, Lin Mingyang is surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside, and the flash and microphone are aimed at this Hollywood rising star.

"Felix, are you going to perform today?" saw that Lin Mingyang was dressed very formally, but the reporters on the list of award presenters did not see his name, so some people raised questions. "Are you going to sing?"

Lin Mingyang pretended to be surprised and glanced at the man, "I think I should be right, is this the Grammy awards ceremony?" ”

His humorous and witty expression caused a burst of laughter from the reporters around him, and then another reporter asked: "You have shown a good musical talent in "Youth Musical", do you have any plans to develop towards music in the future?" ”

"I'm just an amateur music lover compared to the professionals here today, and I'm lucky enough to be invited by the Grammys, and when I first received the invitation, I thought they had the wrong address!" Compared with the passive coping in the past, Lin Mingyang seemed calm in front of reporters today, and even had the leisure to talk and laugh with them.

"Looks like you're confident in today's performance?" The reporters around him also felt his relaxed state, and then naturally associated this with Lin Mingyang's next performance.

"Because in front of so many professionals, I know that I must be the worst, so there is no pressure." Lin Mingyang's performance of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger is in place.

Of course, the reporters' questions were endless, but the hurried staff interrupted their "pleasant" conversation, and the awards ceremony was about to begin, and Lin Mingyang should also enter at this time.

Just as he walked to the door of the venue, a reckless long-haired girl suddenly broke out, she lowered her head and walked out on her own, and then stumbled into Lin Mingyang, who also didn't look at the road.

"Hey, why don't you look at the road!"

Lin Mingyang was about to complain, but the girl took the first step to snatch his lines. The moment the other party raised his head and spoke, Lin Mingyang saw the girl's face clearly, and then he was stunned.

"It's you!"
