Marcus burst out laughing, how could he not hear the implication of Sun Nan's words.
"We in Finland are a highly developed and highly industrialized market economy country. The per capita output is much higher than the EU average, and residents have a relatively high quality of life. So this time, we offered Mr. Liu a salary that far exceeds that of Hollywood's first-tier stars. The appearance fee may be worth something only a few Hollywood kings have!"
As soon as his words were spoken by the interpreter, they caused an uproar, and some people even stood up in their seats unconsciously.
Perhaps adding fuel to this highly topical issue of net worth, Gu Yun spoke: "Mr. Marcus, there are huge differences in the net worth of artists from various countries and regions in our Chinese-speaking region. I don't know that Liu Qingshan is What is the specific amount at one time?”
Marcus closed his eyes and looked up to the sky in a funny way, twirling his fingers quickly with both hands, and then said: "The specific number needs to be finalized before the contract is finalized before it can be announced to the public, but it takes into account the worth of several Hollywood kings. Finally, I think the number in the contract will not be less than 20 million!"
"Twenty million?" Gu Yun stood up in surprise, "Are you talking about the beautiful sword?"
"No, it's euros. If converted into your Chinese currency, it should be quite close to 200 million!"
"Hey, Shanzi, if you take this job, you won't have to do anything else in the future. Can you give me the position of assistant to my brother?"
Sun Nan's funny exclamation not only aroused even greater exclamations, but also caused the whole audience to burst into laughter.
"Of course, such a large sum is not limited to one theme song." Marcus immediately added, "Mr. Liu also needs to go to the Lapland town to cooperate with the promotion and unveil the Ice and Snow Festival!"
Liu Qingshan, who had not interrupted, suddenly smiled at this time, "The conditions offered by Mr. Marcus are indeed very tempting, but this issue is not suitable to be discussed on such an occasion, right? And there have been more than two live broadcasts tonight. It’s almost an hour and I think everyone is tired!”
"Not tired! Not tired! Not tired!"
What he didn't expect was that the audience at the scene actually shouted in unison.
Taking advantage of the warm atmosphere at the scene, Marcus immediately implemented the third song he needed to sing: "I didn't expect that the Chinese audience was as enthusiastic as those in Europe and the United States! In our place, once someone shouts " Amway, the protagonist is about to return! How about I make a suggestion? Since the other singer of "We Don't Talk Anymore" is also here, can you temporarily invite them to sing it for us again?"
The audience was stunned and immediately became crazy. There was no encore in the program preview. Obviously, this proposal exceeded almost everyone's expectations.
Gu Yun and Li Guyi looked at each other cryptically, and the latter then said with a smile: "Liu Qingshan, since Mr. Marcus brought it up and the audience responded enthusiastically, can you let us and the audience, Also want to see your championship song?"
Liu Qingshan spread his hands and made a helpless expression: "I need to discuss this matter with Sister Xishan!"
The on-site host was very smart and immediately came forward to explain: "Ms. Jin has been watching from the waiting area, and I just saw her walking over here!"
"Jinxi is good! Jinxi is good! Jinxi is good!"
An unknown person started the song, and the audience was once again filled with cheers. Jin Xishan also walked onto the stage with the call, and then the lights dimmed and the moving melody started to sound.
"We Don't Talk Anymore" has a heavenly voice. The MV was released on the market a month ago. Even in non-English-speaking regions like China, it became extremely popular because of Liu Qingshan.
So as soon as the familiar melody came, someone was humming softly in harmony.
As the chorus progressed, the humming in response became louder and louder, and more and more people participated.
Although most people don't remember the lyrics, there are always a few lines that are consistent and sound similar at first glance.
After the live broadcast ended, Marcus followed him to Liu Qingshan's lounge, because the Nightwish band was waiting for a call in the hotel.
When he heard that he had to rush to produce the recording version overnight, Liu Qingshan looked a little surprised: "In such a hurry? Why don't you finalize the contract first?"
Marcus smiled and explained: "We come here with full sincerity. The recording and contract negotiations can be carried out at the same time, because the Ice and Snow Festival is about to be held, and it is imperative to race against time!"
The Ice and Snow Festival held in that small town called Lapland will open on the 23rd of January, and there is only one month left to go.
Liu Qingshan learned that it was the Nightwish band who decided to invite him. Originally, the relevant Finnish departments had decided on them, but they were still struggling with which international big names to focus on to enhance the reputation of the ice and snow festival.
Ye Wish's suggestion undoubtedly takes into account all factors in a more comprehensive manner, because the most influential and most hyped thing in the world right now is the Liu Qingshan phenomenon. Of course, it is called the "Alien" phenomenon in Europe and the United States. .
Phenomenal is a foreign adjective, literally translated from the English phenomenal. This word has an extended meaning of "genius" in its source language.
Liu Qingshan can be called a phenomenon-level figure because the word happens to be extended in Italian to mean a person with extraordinary abilities. To put it more informally, it means word of mouth, and to put it more exaggeratedly, it means that everyone is empty.
The scale of his influence has almost become a social phenomenon, and it is undoubtedly a perfect fit to invite him to promote and perform live.
Moreover, China's influence in the world is becoming more and more obvious. Taking this opportunity to attract some Orientals to the Ice and Snow Festival is far more meaningful than a celebrity gimmick.
Therefore, the Finnish organizer decided to invite Liu Qingshan overnight. Marcus happened to be in Kyoto, so a series of operations followed, including Sun Nan's door-to-door invitation.
Originally, China's Olympic song collection group didn't think much of him. After all, except for Sun Nan, those people were all elderly.
Although Gu Yun is among them, such a serious matter will inevitably have stricter evaluation standards. The old man's work attitude has always been upright and upright, but it is difficult to actively recommend him.
Unexpectedly, it was overseas projects that came to us first, which made those old-timers start to take this matter seriously.
In addition, after they learned about Finland's budget, they no longer dare to look down upon Liu Qingshan. With a net worth of 20 million U.S. dollars, he is already the top person in Hollywood. Just imagine that his country has a person worth more than this. It is no longer possible for high-level artists to remain silent in China.
So some people who secretly did not appreciate what Liu Qingshan did also surrendered under the terrible capital investment. After all, such a big matter has been reviewed by the relevant departments!
After hearing and guessing this, Liu Qingshan could only smile bitterly. Of course he was jealous of the huge sum, but if because of this, he was included among the targets who could be trusted and used by the relevant departments, it would obviously not be possible. Not his original intention.
What's more, before that, he had vaguely felt the approach of a similar department.
There is a reason why he doesn’t want to deal too much with the authorities. It is different from whether he is patriotic or not. Trying to avoid more troubles is his true idea, because he always thinks that he is just an ordinary artist. The fetters of certain identities make it easier to accomplish certain things.
Unfortunately, his wishful thinking is not realistic, and all he can accept now is a correct attitude.
The Nightwish band arrived half an hour later. The recording studio Liu Qingshan chose was the familiar Baihua. The alley with the same name was already crowded with people.
The reason is simple. People in Kyoto know that this is the place where the music festival stars are most concentrated, and it is not far away from the bar street and is located in the core business circle.
Therefore, there are not a few fans from all walks of life who come to check in every day, even if it is late, even if it is windy or raining.
Liu Qingshan and his entourage came in large numbers, and they entered and exited such an eye-catching place. No matter how tightly they were blocked, they could not escape the sharp eyes of those semi-professionals.
Many of these people were fans who watched tonight's show, and they would have guessed that the band Nightwish would appear soon after a brief contact.
This also caused Liu Qingshan and his party to squeeze in with difficulty, but those people still refused to leave, just to confirm whether their suspicions were accurate.
The Nightwish band is not well-known in China, but there are many fans who can't stand Liu Qingshan's unrelenting promotion and want to see their appearance.
Unfortunately, Liu Qingshan had to personally greet them when they arrived, otherwise it would be difficult for those people to escape from being chased and intercepted by countless people.
At their core is Thomas Holopani, the keyboardist and writer of most of the band's songs.
The lead singer is Taya. It is because of her vowel opera bel canto that Nightwish became famous internationally. However, she will be fired within a year, so Liu Qingshan's attitude towards him can only be called polite.
However, he soon became friends with Thomas and others. These people were very compatible with Liu Qingshan in terms of personality, and they were all open-minded and honest.
There were already a lot of people in Baihua Recording Studio, and there were even more people in the Kyoto rock music circle. In their eyes, the Nightwish Band had a long-standing reputation. Although the music style was alternative and not suitable for them, it did not affect their interest in the music. Familiarity with the band’s work.
Therefore, many people did not leave even though they knew that an international superstar was coming, just because they wanted to witness the true splendor and recording process of Nightwish with their own eyes.
Of course, they want to see Liu Qingshan's inhuman male-female voice. This special singing method that is rumored to be magical is an excellent opportunity that no singer wants to miss.
After Liu Qingshan introduced them one by one, they entered the recording studio directly. Both parties were familiar with the song, so there was no need for too much running-in.
Nightwish even brought their special musical instruments, including the huge Taiko drum from the small island country with distinctive national characteristics and the Turkish suona. This was the main reason why they were blocked in the alley before and couldn't move.
