Chapter 64: The Grammy Ceremony (Ask for Recommendations)
The president of X Entertainment, Cui Zhengnan, also made a speech on behalf of the company. "X Entertainment was officially launched, and at the same time, it also recruited trainees from South Korea, and the selection lasted three days from February 1st to February 3rd. The company also launched a large girl group this year. ”
X Entertainment launched a girl group, which attracted the attention of the entertainment industry. In the era of men's group hegemony, X Entertainment launched a women's group, does it symbolize that the era of women's groups is coming???
However, many economic companies have adopted a wait-and-see attitude and are ready to follow suit. If X Entertainment's girl group succeeds, various brokerage companies will launch girl groups one after another. If they fail, their girl group plan will be delayed.
Lee Hyun-ri didn't care about that at all. Because Li Xianli has been busy all day. Just for Taylor's album to come out as soon as possible.
Time flies, Taylor's album is also in the most late stage, the recording is over, and there is still the most final production. It won't take more than a month to complete, and Taylor's side is already filming the MV.
Li Xianli and Avril's clothing store also opened. The name of the store is 'Avril&lee', and the store is in Beverly Hills. On the opening day, only Avril went to cut the ribbon alone, and Li Xianli did not go, the reason is very simple, Li Xianli was busy. also attracted a burst of complaints from Avril.
The clothing store has everything, decorations, casual clothes, pants and shoes, sports clothes, pants, sneakers, formal wear, dresses, small dresses. Denim clothes are full of eyes. The entire store has 4 floors, and it is decorated in the style that Lee Hyun-ri said, saying that this will be the flagship store in the future. The guests were all Hollywood's world-class stars. See trendy clothes, pants, shoes. Different cuts, bold colors, more powerful than many current fashion designers. It also stimulated the desire of these stars to buy.
On the first day, the turnover was more than $400,000. It has also directly attracted the attention of the media in the fashion industry, saying that A&L is the vane of fashion.
On the Korean side, X Entertainment also recruited trainees as scheduled. For three days, it can be said that there are a lot of people outside the door of X Entertainment. Some of the people who performed very well were directly admitted, and in short, none of the information of the people who came to register was lost, including the information of those who were not currently admitted. Waiting for the re-examination of Li Xianli's return.
On the evening of February 8, the Grammys finally arrived, and Lee Hyun-ri also attended the Grammy Awards ceremony.
That night, Lee Hyun-ri wore an A&L suit but Avril was dressed in casual clothes, and the two walked on the red carpet at the Grammys. As soon as Li Xianli and Avril appeared, the flash did not stop.
A new reporter asked, "Avril, who is that Asian next to you?" ”
The reporter next to him rolled his eyes directly, and continued to press the shutter while explaining to the newcomer. "He? Lee, the producer of Avril's single this time, is also a songwriter. He's the Grammy, the legendary most mysterious 'X' Zhilu Dao, right?? I really doubt you're entertaining. ”
"Oh my God!! He is the chief producer of X Entertainment 'X'" sighed one day, and immediately hurried to press the shutter.
Lee Hyun-ri also walked, and he also heard the familiar Korean, "Lee Hyun-ri, please look over here." When Lee Hyun-ri heard Korean, he waved his hand at the reporters in South Korea. I went to the side of the Korean reporter.
When the reporters saw Li Xianli coming, they took the initiative to say, "Li Xianli, hello, we are reporters from Chosun Ilbo, can I ask you a few questions?" ”
Avril saw that Li Xianli had been standing on the reporter's side and showed no signs of coming, so she walked over. "What's wrong? Plum. ”
As soon as the reporter saw Avril, he said, "Hello Avril." We are newspaper reporters in South Korea, can I ask you a few simple questions? ”
Avril heard that it was Lee Hyun-ri, and the Korean reporter didn't say much. "Oh, you ask, we need to get in quickly. It's just too cold. "The Grammys never had anyone urging the guests to hurry up and get through the red carpet or anything like that. It's basically very casual. Because Avril wasn't wearing much, and the weather was still relatively cold, she wanted to enter the venue quickly.
"Avril, what do you think about Lee being invited to the Grammys this time?" The Chosun Ilbo asked.
"Lee, is a very talented person, he sings very well, I think you know the way, as for why he himself doesn't release an album, I don't know the way, plus the award for the birth of the 'Grammy', Lee Hyun-ri has a lot of songs. But he never participated before. I'm also very weird. When a reporter from Chosun Ilbo heard Avril's answer, there was a singing voice about Lee Hyun-ri.
"Oh, Miss Avril, do you think Lee's singing voice is great, too?" Like a hyena, the Chosun Ilbo heard the voice of a world-class singer evaluating Lee Hyun-ri. I just want to dig up some secrets.
"Yes, I'm not the only one who said that, Sarah Kona, Kelly Claesson, they all said it." Avril replied.
The reporter immediately pointed at Li Xianli and asked, "Li Xianlixi, do you have any opinion on this?" ”
"What can I think? The singing voice is innate. Li Xianli spread his hands and said.
"Lee Hyun Lixi, we mean, do you have any plans to release your own album?"
"Oh, this question Brother Hu Dong also asked me, and he said that if I also release an album, will the other singers have to eat? So I followed Brother Hudong's advice and left them with something to eat. I'll be my producer, MC. Brother Hu and I just grabbed the food to eat, who told him to eat so much. Li Xianli said directly and funny.
provoked all the reporters to laugh, and Li Xianli also signaled that he should go in. and Avril and Avril left.
After the two entered the venue, Li Xianli found that the atmosphere inside was much more lively. Since there was still some time before the official opening, many familiar people stood together and chatted. Because all the musicians in it have a heart that loves music. Here are some of the best musicians in the industry. Let's get together and exchange some musical experiences.
Lee and Avril found a place to sit down, and Sarah Kona saw Avril and Lee Hyun-ri coming over. took the initiative to say, "Li, I can see you again." ”
"Oh!! Sarah, are you okay? When Li Xianli saw Sarah Kona coming, he took the initiative to stand up and give Sarah Kona a hug. And greetings.
"Of course I'm fine. Aren't you good? Sarah Kona also made a joke with Lee Hyun-ri.
"Of course I'm very bad, I've been busy lately, our company is going to launch a new person, I'm making an album for her, a very nice girl, you can listen to her songs when you have time." I wrote the title song. Lee Hyun-ri also advertised Taylor, hoping that someone would take care of Taylor after his debut in the future.
Sarah Kona heard that Lee Hyun-ri had written a new song and was a producer for the newcomer. made fun of Li Xianli. She is aware of Li Xianli's serious work and perfection in music. "Oh? Of course I listened to the songs you wrote, but you're the producer this time? That girl can stand it, to be honest, has that girl ever been scolded and cried by you? ”
Hearing Sarah Kona make fun of herself, Lee Hyun-ri also smiled awkwardly. "Taylor is sometimes out of state for recording, and he has not been scolded by Li Xianli, and in my impression, Taylor has really been scolded a few times." Sarah Kona saw Li Xianli smile and knew that she had guessed correctly. took the initiative to divert the topic, "You two have a good clothing store this time." A lot of people have gone to take care of your business. ”
Avril also said, "Since you said yes, why don't you come?" ”
"I'll go tomorrow, hahaha." Sarah Kona smiled generously. The figures of the three attracted the attention of a real diva, Beyoncé. Beyoncé also knew that the Asian boy next to Avril was X Entertainment's Kui Bao 'X', and she had long wanted to know this legendary 'X' but never had the opportunity. Because Lee Hyun-ri has never attended the Grammys, this is his first time attending the Grammys. He walked towards the three of them.
Beyoncé walked over and greeted Sarah Kona, who she was more familiar with, "Sarah, are you here?" Who is this? Don't you tell me about it? ”
Sarah Kona was introduced. "Beyoncé, this is the musical genius who wrote me 'justonelastdance', the legendary 'X' Xianli. Plum. Lee, I don't think I need to introduce him. ”
Li Xianli also took the initiative to reach out and shake Beyoncé's hand. Beyoncé doesn't squirm either. After shaking hands with each other. Li Xian said humorously, "Hello, Miss Beyoncé, I'm 'X', but it's not a legend. Just call me Lee. ”
"Hello, Lee, I'm honored to meet you. Just call me Beyoncé. Is there any idea you would like to work with me, I appreciate your talent. Beyoncé said.
"Beyoncé, I've been working on an album for a newcomer to the company lately, and I've been very busy. Our cooperation may be delayed. So, at the latest at the beginning of '07, I'll write you a song and give it to you. Guaranteed to keep you satisfied. What do you think? Li Xianli also promised.
"OK, how about you make this song for me then? Plum. I'll use the song you wrote for me and release a single. Beyoncé said cheerfully.
"There's nothing wrong with me writing songs for you, but if I want to record songs for you, you'll probably have to come to Korea. Because, I am also the MC of some Korean shows. Lee Hyun-ri was very moved to hear Beyoncé asking him to record a single, but thinking of the development of South Korea and the fact that he had to go back, he wanted to refuse.
"No problem, you can leave me your private number, and we can get in touch when the time comes. If I could, I'd come to you in Korea. ”
The two chatted about the issue of cooperation. The scene was basically full. The ceremony was about to start, and Beyoncé sat down with Li Xianli.
With a burst of music, the awards ceremony began. The opening of the Grammys was not the host of the show who came on stage first to say a snap. It's a straightforward opening of the music program.
