While Shen Miaomiao was going abroad to make money, Li Jie was not idle either, and the arrangement work for his second English album was also in progress simultaneously.
This time, Li Jie also selected ten exquisite works.
The first song is "Hello" by Adele, the queen of Eagle Country. This song is Adele's fourth number one single. It took the number one spot on the list with millions of sales within one week of being on the list.
At the same time, it broke America's single-week single sales record and was also the 24th [first-week champion single] on the Billboard Hot 100.
The second song is the classic song "Sugar" by the Magic Red Band. This song also performed very well. After the single was released, it entered the top ten in the first week, ranking eighth.
It peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard Singles Chart.
Although it is only second place, it is extremely difficult to win the first place on the Billboard singles chart. Anyone who can get the honor of the first single is the kind that will leave his name in the history of pop music.
The third song is "we are young" by FUN band.
Compared with the previous two songs, this song's performance is even more dazzling. Not only is it the number one single on the Billboard, but it has also been the number one song for six consecutive weeks.
At the same time, this song has won the top spot on the music charts in nine countries, including Eagle Country, Electric Eel Country, Tuao, and Ireland.
Really popular all over the world.
Of course, the lyrics of this song are a little inconsistent with Shen Miaomiao's personality.
However, in front of Li Jie, none of this is a problem. With his level, changing it is a matter of control.
The fourth and fifth songs are also singles by Adele.
You can't blame Li Jie for always catching a sheep. After all, Adele has a lot of hits.
"When we were young" and "some one like you", including these two songs, there are three Adele songs in Shen Miaomiao's second album.
Although Adele has other good songs, Li Jie decided to take it slow.
Save those for later.
The sixth song is "can't stop love", a wedding song specially composed by Swedish singer Darin for Princess Victoria and commoner Westerling.
This princess is a serious princess.
The combination of a princess and a commoner, whether in reality or in fairy tales, is an extremely rare thing.
In 2010, more than hundreds of millions of people around the world focused their attention on Stockholm to watch the wedding of the century.
"Can't Stop Love" was created based on this background. The album containing this song sold 200,000 copies within one week of release.
In 2010, the total population of Sweden was only 9.8 million. Excluding the elderly and children, this means that one out of every twenty people bought this album.
Since then, this song has become popular all over the world and once became a special song for weddings, probably similar to "You Will Marry Me Today" in the Chinese music scene.
The seventh song selected is Katy Perry's classic song "roar".
Within three weeks of being on the chart, "roar" became the Billboard's number one single. This is also Fruity's eighth number one single.
Since then, the song has quickly become popular all over the world, and has won the championship single achievement in more than ten countries, including Eagle Country, Tu'ao, Electric Eel, and Little Bangzi.
The eighth song "Wake Me Up", although it did not win the Billboard No. 1 single, it still reached the fourth position and won the No. 1 single in 22 countries around the world.
The ninth song "Call Me Maybe" is also one of the divine songs. It has been on the Billboard chart for 15 weeks and has achieved the epic achievement of nine consecutive championships.
The tenth song "Baby" is even more heavyweight.
Justin Bieber became famous all over the world with this song. As a pure newcomer, "Baby" reached the fifth position in its first week on the chart.
It is no exaggeration to say that it shocked the North American music scene.
This song also made Justin reluctant to win awards. Although it is not a heavyweight award, there is no doubt about its popularity.
(Actually, the song BABY is similar to our saliva song. It is very popular, but its evaluation in the industry is not high. Therefore, Jia Tianwang did not win the award with this song.)
June.
Shen Miaomiao returned to China in a low-key manner. In the next month and a half, except for a few advertising endorsements, she had no other schedule.
I came back this time for no other purpose than to record a new album.
Although Shen Miaomiao has 'disappeared' in China for several months, her popularity in the country has not diminished at all.
It’s even increasing instead of decreasing!
Some of the larger domestic media have made arrangements with Warner before and will send camera crews to follow Shen Miaomiao.
To be honest, around the turn of the millennium, China generally had little confidence in Western countries.
If it weren't for this kind of environment, there wouldn't have been so many public knowledges. Rumors about the German sewers all arose during this period.
Well.
This is how the craftsmanship of my childhood comes from. You can drink the water from the toilet directly.
From the perspective of future generations, they will definitely not believe such outrageous remarks.
But in the millennium when the Internet is not developed enough, similar remarks are very popular.
The rise of study abroad craze also once made people think that the moon in foreign countries is rounder.
As a Chinese, Shen Miaomiao can achieve groundbreaking achievements abroad. For Chinese people, it is more or less a sense of national pride.
If we want to make an analogy, Shen Miaomiao is even more popular in China than Cheng Long.
Although Cheng Long became famous early, Shen Miaomiao was born and raised in the mainland, and her music is popular all over the world. Comparing the two, Shen Miaomiao's advantage is not ordinary.
Therefore, after Shen Miaomiao returned to China, various media outlets sent out personnel one after another, and reporters were stationed at every location where Shen Miaomiao might be seen.
but.
Regarding the media, Shen Miaomiao is almost immune now. Compared with those foreign media, the domestic media is relatively disciplined.
In America, Shen Miaomiao saw firsthand how crazy and arrogant the capitalist media is.
The world's pop king, Michael Jackson, had to give in three points when faced with the media who had no bottom line.
The media clearly knew that the rape case was false, but turned a blind eye to it and ate steamed buns with human blood.
In other words, Shen Miaomiao does not have any private activities. If she did, the media would dare to directly criticize her and film her.
Shen Miaomiao has a deep understanding of how American teenage idol Britney Spears was targeted by the media.
this day.
Seeing Shen Miaomiao calmly facing the media following her, Li Jie couldn't help but smile with relief.
To him, Shen Miaomiao was a sister in name, but in reality she was more like a daughter.
Now, he has a sense of accomplishment that his daughter has grown up.
This sense of accomplishment is far higher than how many awards Shen Miaomiao has won, how high her album sales are, and how much money she has earned.
After all, this is something money can’t buy.
For "alien" immortals like Li Jie, achievements in money and power are far less than self-satisfaction.
This is where all the fun of growing up lies.
