Perhaps the only person in the band with normal thinking ability is Smith. In fact, Liu Qingshan had hinted that he would go solo before.
But Smith and them all worked their way out of a small street. After pretending not to understand, he never mentioned it again.
After the room was clear, Smith said one thing with a smile: "Let's pray to sing the opening. In fact, many people are not happy, but the song "Sugar (Candy)" is so popular that there is no demand for it in the market. The attention has always been very high, that’s why they chose us!”
"But you hope that the band will only have this one hit song, which will attract irresponsible remarks from the old and American colleagues?"
"There are definitely voices of doubt, but our mentality is very good, and they don't dare to say it to our face. My friends are all very good at fighting! It's just that Universal Music took a fancy to us some time ago and wanted to invite us here. Development, I am very satisfied with the conditions given, but there is a prerequisite, I need to ask you to write a few more songs!"
The song "Sugar" was originally stolen by Liu Qingshan. The original singer was the Magic Red Band, which is just becoming popular.
He only needed to "compose" new songs that the other party had not yet released, which was a casual matter, so he agreed without any reason.
And in order to help Smith, who was a little embarrassed at the moment, to cover up his face, he even said: "You are my first foreign friend, so I have always valued our friendship with you. In fact, I have already helped you make some songs. , just waiting to see if you care about me too!"
Smith's expression immediately relaxed, "I treat you as a benefactor, and it seems to be beyond the scope of friends, right? Without you, we would still be the semi-underground band that occasionally went to the TV station to warm up people. After a year Although I almost vomited while singing "Sugar", everyone in the band has money in their hands, and the guy with the earrings can even save money, so I personally think that I don't care about you anymore. Got it!"
The earrings he was talking about belonged to the band's lead guitarist, the guy with tattoos on his body, face, and even the soles of his feet.
This person is the most typical decadent family in the West. According to Easterners, he is a demon king who is drunk now and never thinks about what will happen after he wakes up tomorrow.
But for such a master who would spend all the money he earned on the same day, otherwise he would feel uncomfortable, he actually had savings, which is enough to show that their current income situation is still very wealthy.
Liu Qingshan shook his head, "Just having a song and a receiving unit doesn't mean that there will be no worries in the future. Your old guys have to curb some of their behavior!"
"Don't worry, Mr. Liu, we talked all night before, it's about future development, and it also determines everyone's life span. If we continue as crazy as before, I'm afraid we will soon have the opportunity to sing at someone's funeral. That song "sugar"!"
"How did the conversation turn out?"
"If you have a deposit for the earrings, it means that the communication on that day worked! But I also understand in my heart that some styles of doing things are like tattoos that may never be washed off in a lifetime, but at least I have found a formal girlfriend and started a family. I hope that more people will have complete changes in their married life in the future!"
"how about you?"
"I found one three months ago, and I realize more and more that I love her very much!"
"Then let's get married after the album is released. Remember to give me a call then! But there is something I have to say beforehand, like at an award ceremony.

The performance, and being the opening guest, must not make any mistakes during the process! "
"Although my friends are usually full of personality, their persistence in music has always been perseverance. In other words, we have a reverent mentality towards music and will never be distracted or act petty during performances!"
"Okay, tell Earrings and the others that tomorrow, no, the day after tomorrow, I'll get a few new songs. I want them to promise that I can master at least one song proficiently before I leave Los Angeles!"
"Well, also, people from Universal Music told me that they will pay the royalties for a few songs!"
"Forget it this time, just regard those songs as my blessings for you to start a new life! Don't worry, as long as the band's development can be stabilized, I will continue to provide works, and then the record company will come forward!"
Smith's eyes were a little moist. He knew very well that there was a big difference between whether the new work was signed before or after signing. If you had mature works before joining the record company, the salary in the contract would be much higher.
And it is obvious that Liu Qingshan also wants to remind the record company in this way that they have a personal relationship with each other. His willingness to sign a contract with them is not a relief, but the ability to develop normally.
You must know that the Wish Band has no shortage of works of its own, but the British music industry is a popular development model with an overwhelming number of bands. If they don't have the highest quality songs as the title track, no matter how many works they have, no one will listen.
The exchange between the two people did not last long before it was interrupted by guests arriving one after another.
With Liu Qingshan's current influence in the European and American entertainment circles, even if he is not invited to a movie premiere, people will take the initiative to support him, not to mention that he is now in Los Angeles.
Of course, most of the visitors were old acquaintances. Regardless of their purpose of coming, at least they gave him enough face.
The appearance of these people cannot be a secret. In Hollywood, where paparazzi are everywhere like in England, almost any famous artist will have paparazzi guarding him all year round. The fact that they suddenly concentrated near the Ritz Hotel can still be Can't hide it from those eyes and ears.
When the news hits the newspapers the next day and Liu Qingshan's identity is recognized by more people, a wave of public opinion will form, and more foreign media will reprint and publish it.
What's more, "Late Autumn" is currently gaining momentum, and it is inevitable to spark another round of hot market discussions, so he is actually quite grateful to the big and small celebrities who are willing to take a certain risk to come and visit.
Why is it risky? In fact, it is more straightforward to take the casino in Xiangjiang as an example.
The more developed the entertainment industry is, the more complicated the conflicts of interest between entertainment companies and economic companies will be, and their artists must try their best to cater to the likes and dislikes of stakeholders.
This kind of caution is a universal truth in interpersonal relationships. For example, Liu Qingshan had a deep feud with Sanyou Pictures in Xiangjiang. At the beginning of the incident, the artists there had many concerns about interacting with him.
A similar situation came to an end after the three friends were taken down one after another. Hollywood is like a larger entertainment industry in Hong Kong. The overt and covert fights between the eight major film companies are much more cruel than the entertainment industry in Hong Kong.
Several of them have cooperated with Liu Qingshan. Of course, the film companies that did not get the opportunity to cooperate felt uncomfortable, not to mention that there are companies such as Columbia and Ultimate Fighting Championship that have direct conflicts with him.
So the people who showed up at the hotel today were more or less related to his opposite party.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Through cooperation, it can be imagined that people who are willing to come here are indeed worthy of his attention.
Of course, since there is a certain risk, guests must try their best to avoid leaving more excuses, so it has become a common practice to show up and leave.
But for Liu Qingshan, this was already a great deal of face, and even some people who wanted to stay were politely persuaded to leave.
Because as long as you miss today, there will be many opportunities for gatherings in the future, and you can interact with each other openly. This is also the most similar place between the East and the West. The overt and covert rules only regard the first day's visit as the criterion. .
But there is an exception among these people, and that is Taylor. The only people who left with most of them were her mother Andelia and agent Kirk.
And there is no need to worry too much about someone making a fuss about it afterwards, because every time they greet guests, Jin Xishan and her appear in public holding hands. It is well known that the relationship between the two has always been good.
"Brother, a music scriptwriter from Miramax Film Company found me. He wanted to find a suitable background music for one of the company's movies!"
After there were no outsiders in the room, Taylor suddenly remembered something.
"Miramax? That doesn't sound familiar."
"It was acquired by Disney a long time ago. It used to be responsible for distributing high-artistic or less popular niche films. In recent years, it has also begun to develop towards popular films."
"The purpose of looking for you is to look for me?"
"Of course, many people in the industry now actually know that I was actually signed by you!"
"Tell me what kind of movie it is."
"The action film "Kill Bill", directed by the great director Lentino, tells the story of a female killer who embarked on a journey of revenge because Bill had bloodbathed her wedding. Among the heroines are Chinese and small islanders. , so the director asked for some oriental music melodies in the soundtrack. The other party knew that I have a close relationship with you, so they found me here!"
Liu Qingshan was secretly happy, but he didn't show it: "The name sounds a bit unusual. Can you tell me more about the style of the film?"
"It contains gangs, killers, bloody battles, revenge and other common elements in action films. Perhaps it should be said that it is the director's own style imprint, but in the film, all these are reflected in the film in a perfect way of action and form. within the narrative.”
"Does the martial arts design also focus on fighting scenes with Eastern Kung Fu?"
"It seems so. It is said that Lentino used a lot of high-tech film techniques to depict the splendor and gore of multiple action scenes, fast editing, camera shooting with changing speeds, a large number of close-ups of characters, slow motion, black and white and color scene transitions, etc.”
"Your description is also very professional! Can I understand that this BGM is more used in the majestic moment when the gang boss or killer appears?"
"I don't know much about this. From your point of view, what are the characteristics of such people?"
"The correct way for the boss to appear is to wear all white and have his subordinates wear black suits and eye patches to highlight his status as the protagonist. Then choose two cronies to follow him and dress differently from the minions to show that he is very powerful. Looks like, finally, BGM starts!"
