Chapter 245: Prague Square
Shakira, Latin America's top diva.
As of 2001, she has sold more than 10 million albums in Latin America, making her the highest-selling female Spanish-language singer in Latin American history.
Although she is only 157 tall, her outstanding body proportions and aura often make her look two meters eight when performing.
"It's nice to meet you, I thought I was wrong at first, you look taller and more handsome than in the MV."
As a Latin American diva who has become famous, when she entered the American music scene last year, she met Zhou Yi, a dragon who crossed the river on the B list, and it was difficult for Shakira not to remember this face.
Especially after her single "Whenever, Wherever" was overtaken by Zhou Yi's "The lazy song".
"If we don't mention that MV, then I think we should be friends and have a good chat."
After a polite handshake, Zhou Yi pretended to shrug his shoulders helplessly: "If you can give me another chance, I will definitely not be so perfunctory about the MV of this song, at least it has to be filmed beautifully." ”
Shakira was obviously a little surprised by Zhou Yi's talkativeness: "Actually, I quite like your current MV, although it is simple, but it is very interesting." ”
Regardless of Zhou Yi's arrogance on American programs and radio last year, the personalities of the Chinese singers she heard of were obviously inconsistent with Zhou Yi.
"Thank you."
Zhou Yi smiled slightly, and then introduced Xiao Yaxuan beside him: "This is Elva, my friend, and also a Chinese singer." ”
"In fact, I should be regarded as his predecessor, he was still studying when I debuted in China."
Xiao Yaxuan, who teased Zhou Yi's words, did not have stage fright because the Latin American diva in front of him was not frightened: "Hello, Shakira, it's a pleasure to meet you." ”
Who is not a diva yet, although her current reputation as a Chinese diva is still a bit empty.
But she is very confident in her four specializations "4U", not to mention the blessing of Zhou Yi, once released, the diva position will be absolutely stable.
Although at present, because of her repeated rebellion, the album has been delayed again and again, and the song has not been finished until now.
With years of experience in the entertainment industry, Shakira saw at a glance that the relationship between the man and woman in front of her should be very close, and some eye contact and physical contact between laughter and laughter cannot deceive people.
As a result, one said it was a friend, and the other said it was a senior?
"Hello, Elva."
Although she was not very interested in Xiao Yaxuan in her heart, Shakira still chatted with her in a friendly manner, and then exchanged contact information with the two of them-
"I heard Spike you love football? I really envy your national football team to be able to participate in the World Cup this year and be able to cheer for your country in the World Cup, unlike us Colombia, where members of the national team can only watch TV at home. ”
At the moment when the atmosphere of the World Cup has begun to warm up, the 2002 South Korea-Japan World Cup has become the starting point of the chat, but when Shakira sincerely expressed her envy, Zhou Yi felt a little weird in his heart-
He never expected that one day the national football team would be able to help him grow his face.
"What, are you ready to move? Everyone is gone, and it's time to take your eyes back. ”
After a friendly first meeting, after seeing Shakira leave, Xiao Yaxuan squinted at the man beside him who was not shy away at all, and reminded.
"It's the first time I've been envied by foreign friends because of the national football team, don't you think it's weird?"
"What's so strange, didn't you say that you were close to qualifying before, it's the result of progress."
Xiao Yaxuan raised his hand amusedly and stroked the wind-blown hair on his forehead: "You have to get used to qualifying for the World Cup, so many countries have not been able to enter the World Cup, the national football team is very strong." ”
“……”
Zhou Yi opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he had to swallow back when the words came to his mouth.
At the same time, Shakira, who left after exchanging contact information with Zhou Yi, also called her assistant and instructed: "Find someone to go to Warner and ask Spike how long he is going to stay here, and then try to make an appointment with his agent to meet and have dinner in private." ”
The assistant nodded: "Okay." ”
For Shakira, who is very eager to gain a foothold in the American music scene, Zhou Yi, who went to the United States in the same year as her, is undoubtedly a good partner to work with.
This does not refer to musical cooperation, but to the warmth and solidarity of the group.
She has no foundation in the United States, and Zhou Yi has no foundation in the United States, which is precisely the best opportunity to report to the group for warmth.
Not to mention Warner behind Zhou Yi or Sony behind her, those artists have long had their own social circles, and it is difficult to say that newcomers can be truly accepted when they first arrive.
Not to mention that because of her fiancé, the record company directly suspended the release plan of her new album at the end of last year, and the ban has not been lifted until now.
"Her fiancé? Who is it? ”
Walking on the sparsely populated streets, Xiao Yaxuan, who was holding a string of local delicacies in his hand, handed Zhou Yi one and said curiously.
"Son of the President of Argentina."
——?!
it!
Leng Buding's eyes widened in shock when she heard this high-end level Xiao Yaxuan: "Then if she wants to change to ancient times, isn't she a veritable crown princess?" ”
"No, you may be overestimating the influence."
Zhou Yi, who felt that it was not very delicious after chewing it, immediately returned the skewers in his hand to Xiao Yaxuan, causing the latter to look at the bitten meat, roll his eyes, and eat it all.
Her fiancé's father caused a riot in Argentina last December, which led to the cancellation of their scheduled wedding.
Sony, behind Shakira, was afraid that the sales of a new album would hit the street at this time, so after discussing with her, she canceled her new album release plan, and Tower Records in the United States also announced that it would stop selling Shakira's albums.
"This is also the reason why she will come to be a guest performer even though she is not even nominated, she also wants to maintain her popularity, and she is probably looking for me because she also needs heat, so she plans to get acquainted with me and see if she can join the group to keep warm."
When pacing to the edge of a beautiful square, Zhou Yi stopped, raised the camera and took a look around - Xiao Yaxuan, who was eating, didn't notice it, and his mouth full of grease stains was frozen in the picture, and the noise of the two suddenly startled the pigeons on the edge of the square.
"Then wasn't she miserable by her fiancé and canceled her engagement?"
"No, according to the information collected by Warner's major competitors, she should be in a state of breakup at the moment, and maybe she will get back together that day."
Zhou Yi directly pushed the pot that he knew so clearly to Warner.
Splitting and merging is not a matter for stars in Europe and the United States, and it is precisely because of dividing and merging that Shakira did not completely cancel this engagement that lasted for a full decade until 2011.
"Tsk, it's terrible, an engagement can still be involved."
After buying something to feed the pigeons, Xiao Yaxuan, who squatted on the ground in the square and fed the pigeons while eating, shook his head again and again: "Fortunately, I don't want to get married." ”
She has always grown up in a single-parent family, and she has always had a psychological shadow about getting married, not to mention that her father was ashamed to say in an interview after she became famous, that without his departure, Xiao Yaxuan would not be able to create the stubbornness that Xiao Yaxuan cultivated in a single-parent family, and she would not be able to become famous.
This remark almost made her half angry, if it wasn't for her mother and teacher Yao Qian to stop her, she would have been sprayed in front of the media.
"Why does that sound like you're saying that I might be a problem to you?"
Zhou Yi pressed his right palm on Xiao Yaxuan's head, and then kept rubbing it, disturbing her hair: "You know the law and break the law, right?" ”
"Then you go to the wishing fountain over there and make an oath." The grinning Xiao Yaxuan pointed to the fountain wishing fountain on the other side of the square.
"If you want to make a wish, you go and make a wish, I don't bother to go." Instead, he squatted down and took over Xiao Yaxuan's pigeon feeding business, and Zhou Yi said disgustedly.
"I'll go, I'll go."
Xiao Yaxuan, who was in a comfortable mood, patted his ass and stood up, humming a holy little tune and pacing to the trevi fountain - the appearance of praying with his eyes closed and pious blended with the constant ringing of bells in the square.
Zhou Yi, who was sitting on the bench, subconsciously turned his head to look, and the wind raised her skirt and long hair just right, disturbing his vision.
[I hope that my family, teachers, and Zhou Yi and I will be healthy and healthy for the rest of our lives, and our career will be smooth and smooth.] 】
"What did you wish?"
"I wish you would hit the streets from now on, and then I will take care of you."
Xiao Yaxuan, who came back, raised her eyebrows proudly, and her "domineering" was beyond measure: "Don't sing, my sister will support you." ”
"That's up to you."
Zhou Yi, who was leaning on the bench with his arms outstretched, lifted Erlang's legs, looked her up and down a few times, and teased: "Transfer three million to me first to see the strength." ”
Xiao Yaxuan flew over a card directly: "My supplementary card, don't look for it, let's go buy more supplements." ”
ps: I didn't get a single hair in the year-end summary tonight!
Shady!
I'm not convinced! Shady!
PS2: Tomorrow Riwan!
