Chapter 284: Pitbull
"Little devil, devil wife!" Li Min muttered to himself and lay down on the bed. He also wants Yun'er, so he wants to finish things in the United States as soon as possible, so that he can go back to accompany her. Li Min found Yuna's photo from her phone and put it on the pillow next to her.
"Good night, wife." Yoona in the photo looks at him with a smile, as if to say, "Good night, oppa." ”
Somewhere in Los Angeles, Tiffany is holding her phone and waiting for Li Min to reply to a text message.
"I haven't heard back for ten minutes." Tiffany looked at the alarm clock next to the bed and said with some disappointment, "Oppa should be asleep." ”
"Knock knock!" There was a knock on the door, and Michelle's voice could be heard through the panel; "Miying, can I come in?"
"No, I'm asleep!" Tiffany said loudly. Just now at dinner, Michelle disgraces her by revealing Tiffany's crush, so Tiffany decides to ignore her sister today.
Michelle sighed and didn't say anything more. The footsteps faded away, and I must have gone downstairs.
"No matter what you say, I just like Lee Min oppa." Tiffany finds a photo of Lee Min on her phone, which Tiffany secretly took when she was at Sunny's barbecue restaurant when she looked at her resume. "It's really handsome, my Li Min oppa." Tiffany narrowed her smiling eyes and blushed and gently 'chu~' on the phone screen.
"Good night. oppa。 Tiffany put her phone next to her cheek and fell asleep.
……
Pitbull's music studio is in the basement of a villa in Los Angeles, where Pitbull lived when he was not famous, when he paid $60 a month in rent to his live-in partner, a black man who sold marijuana. But now he had bought the basement and the house above. The original basement was converted into a recording studio, and he lived in the house above.
When Lee Min and Eun Shu came over, Pitbull had already made all the preparations, Ben had come to Los Angeles two days ago to prepare for Li Min's recording, and with the support of the US dollar, everything was ready. Today, along with Li Min and Eunshu, there is also Tims. He had already been placed by Bickberg as an assistant to Li Min. He is responsible for assisting Li Min in handling the complex investment and operation of DA Company.
When Tims learns that Lee Min is going to record a song, he asks which record label Lee Min wants to work with. Because DA's venture capital involves many industries, and the record industry is also involved. When it was known that the company that Li Min wanted to cooperate with was JIVE Records, Tims followed. Since 2000, when jive became independent from RVA. What is accepted is the venture capital of DA. Although most of the shares were later reclaimed, DA still holds about 20 percent of the shares. Li Min is now the executive CEO of DA recognized by Bickerberg, so he can naturally be the dominant person in charge of this 20% of the shares.
Li Min didn't let the person in charge of JIVE come with him. He didn't want to confuse music with DA's identity as a shareholder. Li Min just regards music as a hobby, and what he pays for this hobby is his own time and money, whether he succeeds or not, it is his private matter, and it has nothing to do with DA. He didn't want Pitbull to change his attitude towards music because of his identity. Li Min is a guy who has no belief in music, but he doesn't want to change other people's beliefs in music. And in his heart, he always thought that it was a good thing for people to have faith in certain things.
Pitbull is white, but his style is standard black. The rhythm of the rap is the same, and almost all of the articulations are in black tones. Big bald head, tattoos, shiny huge gold ornaments - except for the surprise of his skin color, Li Min really wants to think of him as a black man.
"WOW~" Pitbull frowned and exclaimed exaggerated when he saw Li Min. "Hey, you look like a kid who just got out of school, you really wrote this song?" Pitbull was very dissatisfied with Li Min's dress and appearance, he felt that Li Min's song was too different from his appearance, and it was not the style of a club singer at all. This time, Li Min didn't bring Kim Doona with him when he came to the United States, so the clothes he wore changed back to a retro suit, which was too inferior for Pitbull.
"Of course I wrote it, there's no doubt about that." Li Min said indifferently.
"OK, you pay, you say." Pitbull didn't have the interest to ask, tilted his head at Li Min, and said, "Follow me." ”
Li Min asked Eunshu to rest in the living room of pitpull, and followed him to the basement, where Ben and a few JIVE sound engineers had already adjusted the equipment in the basement, and when they saw two people coming, Ben motioned for everyone to prepare, and handed pitbull two copies of the score with the lyrics printed on them.
"I'm only recording your part today, my FEAT part has already been recorded, and I just need to compose it together in post-production." pitbull handed both scores to Li Min and said, "The words, I changed a little, because some English parts still need to be paired with a little electronic tune, and the part of the song is perfect, it is completely your original tune." Pitbull explained as he pushed Li Min into the studio. Sing it with confidence, BOSS. Bring a headset, whatever you sing about. ”
Pitbull, like most American musicians, has a non-critical attitude towards Asian musicians, and he had great expectations for the song "DJ-gotus-fallin-loveagain" because he felt that it was a song that would make it high when he heard the rhythm. But when he saw Li Min himself, he changed his opinion again. Li Min really doesn't look like a person who can become popular in the United States.
"Stupid people wear that kind of suit!" Pitbull slandered in his heart, his current attitude towards Li Min is that he will complete the work after taking the money. As for whether this song can become popular, he has no hope.
"A good song was wasted." That's what pitbull thinks.
"Are you ready?" pitbull turned on the microphone and said to Li Min in the studio.
“OK。” Li Min tested Mike and said to Pitbull.
“GO。” pitbull didn't talk nonsense, and motioned directly to Ben to start immediately. (To be continued......)
