Aramco, Times Square.

As one of the most prestigious business districts, it has a wide range of entertainment facilities and influential publicity.

If you want to develop in Aramco, you can't say that you are popular if you don't board the billboard in Times Square.

On Monday, just after nightfall, countless neon lights lit up.

And Crazy Coke commercials are also placed on various billboards.

Pedestrians on the road subconsciously stopped.

"Oh, it's Sybil! It's so beautiful. ”

"Crazy Coke finally found Sybil to shoot commercials, hehe, I don't have to hesitate to buy any more Coke in the future."

"This handsome yellow guy with black hair and black eyes is a little familiar, like I've seen it somewhere."

"It's the hero of The Matrix! That movie was really good. ”

"I never thought that the people of Daxia could also make science fiction films."

"Let's go, go buy a new package of Coke."

With the help of Hipir's fame and the promotion of Crazy Coke, advertisements were repeatedly broadcast on major TV stations and neighborhoods, making Song Yu have a certain reputation.

In addition to Aramco, the Europa League, Korea, Mao Bear and other countries have also been launched.

And it works better.

Especially Goryeo, hairy bears, etc.

Song Yu was very famous before, and now he has directly become a superstar.

Of course, the hottest place is naturally Great Xia.

After Crazy Coke debuted an advertisement on viewers, it exceeded 100 million views in just one hour.

It was Sybil who benefited the most.

This diva is more in line with the aesthetics of the Great Xia people.

After watching the advertisement, many people ran to buy her new songs, and then it soared to the top ten of the weekly pop music chart.

Very rare.

Songs in different languages are inherently alienated.

Among the three major music platforms in Great Xia, most of them are still in the top ten of Great Xia songs.

Unless there are special circumstances.

And Song Yu's drive is undoubtedly a special case.

As for the effect of this advertisement, Crazy Coke is quite satisfied.

Even planning to come back next year.

As for Song Yu himself, he is looking for international brokerage companies everywhere.

It's hard to find.

Normal brokerage companies suck blood too hard.

Although Song Yu is very famous in Great Xia, he has not proven himself in the foreign music scene, how can he put forward generous conditions?

Just when he thought he would miss the opportunity, the penguin came to the door.

It was his old acquaintance, Penguin Film and Television Sun Yuan.

"Brother Song, if you want to find a brokerage company, why don't you find us penguins?"

"I don't remember Penguin having a brokerage company."

"But Penguin has investment companies."

Sun Yuan said with a smile, "Aramco's third largest brokerage company Endeavour, Penguin owns nearly 20% of the shares, and with a little operation, it is not difficult for you to sign a contract." ”

Song Yu raised his eyebrows.

20% is indeed astronomical, and I don't know how the penguins won it.

"I'm very demanding." Song Yu said.

"I know." Sun Yuan was not surprised, and said, "If you don't ask too much, you have already signed a contract, and it won't be my turn." ”

"The average brokerage company is fifty-fifty shares, but I want seven or three shares, and I will have seven."

"No wonder we didn't talk about it." Sun Yuan still looked more determined, and said, "I can promise you, but there are conditions." ”

"On what terms?" Song Yu is not surprised, no company will do good deeds, unless it is his own company.

"How about the movies and TV series produced by Xingdong Entertainment in the future to be distributed and invested by Penguin Films?"

"Impossible." Song Yu refused without thinking about it.

If he didn't have a cheat, he might agree.

But when you know that your film and television dramas will be popular, how can you do this?

"You're misleading, I mean you want priority, if you can, let us invest."

Sun Yuan quickly changed his story.

Negotiate, first the lion opens his mouth.

Seeing that Song Yu refused to be decisive, he changed to the next first-class condition.

In fact, he did this entirely because he felt that Song Yu could not be popular in the European and American music scenes.

Too many singers who broke into the international music scene ended up with nothing.

"There's nothing wrong with priority, but it has to be at market price."

Song Yu paused, "As for investment, at most one a year, I will discuss it with you when the time comes." ”

Sun Yuan thought for a moment and agreed.

Being able to win the right of preference and investment is already a bloody gain.

Unless Song Yu became popular in Europe and the United States, otherwise, even if he took seventy percent, he would be doomed to lose.

But this is not possible.

Sun Yuan has never seen a pure-blooded Daxia person who can make a name for himself in the foreign music scene.

Becoming a king is something you can't even dream of.

All in all, he felt that the penguins had taken advantage.

"Is there going to be a signing ceremony?" Sun Yuan asked casually.

At the beginning, Daxia singers would hype up their entry into the international music scene.

But in the end, no one did.

Because there is no faith.

"Yes." Song Yu replied.

Sun Yuan was a little surprised, but he didn't say anything, and went back to make publicity.

The news of Song Yu's signing with Endeavor Brokerage Company immediately appeared on the hot search of spectators.

"Wait, what's the situation? Brother Yu is going to change jobs? ”

"Above, Endeavor is Aramco's third largest agency, and Brother Yu is going to enter the international music scene."

"Brother Yu, awesome! stepped into the international music scene at the age of 21, and this courage has far surpassed that of many singers. ”

"Courage is courage, but the international music scene is very bloody, and there have almost never been well-known Daxia singers."

"I remember a few years ago, Wang Zhi tried, but the album didn't sell a few copies at all, so he had to come back in ashes."

"Brother Yu, I think there is still hope, if he comes to the English version of "Opera", he may be able to catch fire."

Fans are so worried, not to mention other celebrities.

Zhou Ting specially called and asked him not to be impulsive, and he could delay his entry for two years.

Xu Jian, Bai Xiang and others are also mainly persuasive.

Song Yu is now in full swing, and if he encounters a defeat, he will leave a black history and hit his popularity.

There is persuasion and schadenfreude.

For example, Wang Zhi.

He is quite aware of the brutality of the international music scene.

If you sing in Chinese, you can hardly go out of Asia.

But English songs, too demanding.

This is where the cultural differences lie.

Unless Song Yu buys a good song.

In this way, it deviates from his creative personality.

Take 10,000 steps back, even if you buy a good song, as a newcomer, it is almost impossible to break into the charts.

As the origin of popular music, there are just too many singers.

If you don't pay attention to it, you will be overwhelmed.

The Great Xia people, in particular, have no advantage in themselves.

Friday.

Binjiang City, a hotel.

Song Yu signed a contract with Endeavor Brokerage Company.

It's not time yet, it's already crowded.

The media that were a little famous in Daxia rushed to join in the fun.

Song Yu himself rarely holds press conferences, and now it is the explosive news of entering the international music scene, which naturally attracts countless media.

Not a few well-informed journalists are a little dumbfounded.

The whole hall was full of people.

At a glance, you can see dozens of media cards.

This kind of scene is really extremely rare.

Even the Heavenly King is difficult to reach.

In addition to the media in Daxia, there are also quite a few foreign media.

And it's all big media.

It was invited by Endeavour.

As a large company of Aramco, there are still cards.

It was fast to nine o'clock.

Song Yu and his entourage arrived at the scene.

There aren't many people.

Xingdong Entertainment is Song Yu and Song Yan here.

Endeavour Brokerage is Kano, the president of Asia.

Because Song Yu is from Great Xia, Kano is in charge.

If you want to see the real principal, you have to wait until he becomes famous in Ami.

In fact, it can be seen from the lineup that Endeavor is not optimistic about Song Yu's development.

He was signed purely because of the pressure from the penguins.

Kano was not very interested, and he kept reading from the book, saying things such as working together for the future.

After that, it's time to sign the contract.

Song Yan signed on behalf of Xingdong Entertainment and took a group photo.

Next up is the reporter's question.

"Is it to enter the international music scene by signing a contract with Endeavour?"

"Of course." Song Yu replied quickly.

After all, it was just news before, but now that it is confirmed, everyone is in a bit of a mixed mood.

On the one hand, he hopes that Song Yu will succeed, but on the other hand, he also knows that the chance of success is relatively small.

Some people also think that he was blinded by his achievements in Great Xia, thinking that it was just as simple abroad.

But in this case, it is certainly impossible to say it explicitly.

"After signing the contract, will a new album be released?"

"Yes." Song Yu thought for a while and said, "Because of the problem of time, it is a miniature album." ”

A matter of timing?

The reporters reacted relatively quickly, and immediately thought of the Crazy Coke advertisement.

No wonder the album was released at this time, it turned out to be to gain popularity.

But rubbing one's own heat is not considered heat.

How can ordinary singers have this ability?

Song Yu can also make these international big brands take a look.

"Is the new album a Chinese album or an English album?"

The former is undoubtedly exploiting loopholes, and all Song Yu's Chinese will be popular in Daxia, at least he can keep the basic plate.

The latter is purely starting from scratch, and even his original fans may not necessarily support it.

"English Album." Song Yu replied.

The reporters present applauded, admiring Song Yu's choice.

It's hard for the average person to step out of their comfort zone, let alone a king.

"Is it still you who writes the lyrics, composes the music and arranges the music this time?"

"It's me."

Song Yu's answer made a group of reporters look at each other.

They didn't know he could speak English.

And even if it does, it's another thing to write songs.

Song Yu's talent has been recognized.

But how can writing English songs still be as successful as Chinese?

None of the journalists felt it.

In fact, so are Song Yu's fans.

After the press conference, the relevant content was uploaded to the spectators.

"It's worthy of Brother Yu, and he's still in high spirits."

"One thing to say, I'm not too optimistic. The culture and aesthetics of foreign countries are too far behind us. ”

"Indeed, if you are not careful, Brother Yu will overturn."

"And as far as I know, many of the big hits abroad are rubbing the edges, and I don't want Brother Yu to do the same."

Let's try it soon, everyone. 】

"Really? I don't believe it, send a few songs, I'll listen to it. ”

In fact, Song Yu did consider such factors.

can't rub the edges, otherwise, the character he has always maintained will be ruined.

And it will leave a not-so-wonderful impression on the top.

He has worked so hard for so long, and it can't be in vain.

Aside from the content, Song Yu's song selection mainly refers to the billboard.

The so-called billboard is also known as the song chart.

To win a championship or to finish in the top 10 is enough to be proud.

It is the most authoritative list of Aramco, and it has a wide influence in English-speaking countries.

Although the gold content has decreased later, it is definitely an important reference standard.

Since it is to be an instant hit, then the king has to be fried at the beginning and play the best effect.

Being on the billboard, especially the songs that are champions, undoubtedly meet the requirements.

The first song, "Baby" by Justin Bieber.

A song that made this sixteen-year-old boy a top performer in Europe and the United States.

I believe many people still have an impression of the phrase 'like baby baby oh'.

In addition, this song is also the background song of "QQ Speed Racer Game".

Of course, this is bought after it became popular.

The song "Baby" is lyrical, describing the first love of youth.

The second song, "Hello" by Adele Adkins.

The song is also lyrical, and it is a female singer.

But male singers can also sing.

The third song, "You Are Beautiful" by James Blunt.

A lovelorn song.

Song Yu chose him because James Blunt won the best newcomer for this song.

The previous songs may have a reason for the singer's bonus.

But this song is relatively rare.

After three lyrical songs, Song Yu decided to find two more rock songs.

There is a saying that English songs are mainly about listening to melodies.

Well, the lyrics of some songs are just unsightly.

The fourth song, Linkin Park "NUMB".

In the future, the NBA and League of Legends have used it as the theme song.

The reason is simple.

Burn and you're done.

Even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can listen to it with enthusiasm.

The fifth song, "Believer" by the Dream Dragon Band.

Like the previous song, the sense of rhythm is super strong, and the style of music is explosive.

The song won Best Rock Song on the Billboard in 2018.

At the same time, the two songs have a common characteristic, inspirational.

It's not just about the melody, it's about the content.

For Song Yu, it is a very good choice.

All five songs have set trends.

Originally, he planned to release a complete album directly, but he is a newcomer, and there are too many songs, which will cause a waste of information.

And it's true that time is a bit short.

After Song Yu finished recording the song, he had to hand it over to Endeavor Brokerage to prepare and promote.

If you don't hurry, maybe the craze for Crazy Coke will be gone.

In fact, being able to come up with five songs in a few days has already surprised Endeavour Agency.

It's like taking medicine.

Of course, they prefer to have written it before.

It's just that after the audition, Kano blackfaced.

Not too bad, but too good.

As the president, his appreciation of music is not weak, and he can naturally hear good or bad.

Although he didn't dare to say that he could win the Billboard championship, he would definitely have no problem making it to the top 50.

Some people will say that the top 50 is not very good, but in fact it is quite outrageous.

There is a saying in Ami that songs can enter the top 50, and the rest of their lives will be worry-free.

When he thought that Endeavor Brokerage Company and Xingdong Entertainment signed a seven-three split, he felt distressed.

A lot of money left him.

But having signed a contract, he has nothing to do.

Who told them not to believe in Song Yu's level at all before?

Endeavor Brokerage Company showed the efficiency of a large company, and in less than half a month, Song Yu was notified that he could prepare to release a song.
