China Entertainment 1997.

Chapter 303 Hello, 911, there is a Chinese man here

As I said earlier, songs that can enter the top [-] on the billboard are basically considered quite popular songs in the American music scene.

Ordinary newcomers can gain a firm foothold in the music scene if they have one song, and they can earn a solid living in the industry.

Cao Xuan has three songs, and more importantly, this song has a strong momentum.

In just one week, they went from the [-]th to [-]th to the [-]th to [-]th, and the average ranking of the three songs rose by nearly [-] places.

It seems that there is not much difference in the rise from last week, but from the bottom of the list to the bottom of the middle and from the bottom of the middle to the middle are two completely different concepts, and the difficulty increases geometrically.

Nowadays, even many professional organizations dare not judge the trend of "Chris Tsao",

This is obviously one of the few songs that may become a phenomenon. It cannot be judged by common sense. If you make a wrong judgment, you will be slapped in the face. Everyone is waiting. When the speed of the three songs slows down, you can slowly calculate the conclusion.

And because of the rocket-like rising speed in the past two weeks, "Chris Tsao" has completely gone out of the American music circle on a large scale.

Chris Cao also became famous, and many music media and music critics began to discuss this singer-songwriter from China.

The first shot is three top [-] songs on the bulletin board. If Cao Xuan was a native white American, Cao Xuan would have been crowned as the little king of creation by the new generation of Americans.

But even if they treat it with caution because of the Chinese, the American media cannot completely ignore Cao Xuan's achievements and talents.

The conservative media briefly mentioned it, or even completely ignored it, but the open media began to report a lot on Cao Xuan and began to dig deeper.

No.1 in the Chinese music scene, an Asian superstar, a dominant singer in China, the champion of the Japanese Oricon Chart, the first Chinese singer who successfully entered the top [-] of the Billboard...

The "Los Angeles Times" used metaphors that Americans can understand to tell them Cao Xuan's status in the Chinese music scene.

The Michael Jackson of Chinese pop music!
Even if you are as arrogant as an American, you can't belittle the career and achievements of a singer who has influence over hundreds of millions of people, a top continental superstar, and has successfully achieved good results in the United States. That will only make you appear ignorant and stupid.

With a lot of reports and popular science, the impression of Chris Cao in the hearts of many fans is that he is no longer a strange newcomer in the music scene, but a Chinese king who has come to the international music scene.

In fact, Cao Xuan, the king of Asia, has been promoting it before, but the Americans don't recognize it.

The reason why the Americans recognize it now is because Cao Xuan made his name on the bulletin board.

Americans don’t want to admit that an unknown person in China can achieve such good results in the American music scene, so they recognize Cao Xuan’s status as the Asian king, because only this kind of top Asian superstar succeeds in the American music scene, so they won’t feel shame.

Lose to ordinary Chinese, no!
Lose the king of Asia, yes!

This is actually very ironic, and it also made Cao Xuan further see the arrogance and hypocrisy of the Americans.

However, the "recovery" of the Asian king's line-up has indeed won Cao Xuan a lot of exposure and resources.

One of the most weighty is the performance opportunity of the Los Angeles Music Festival.

Pop music is prevalent in the United States. There are music festivals of all sizes going online every year, with the number of participants ranging from a few thousand to hundreds of thousands.

The most influential music festivals in the United States are the Coachella Music Festival and the Woodstock Music Festival.

However, the Coachella Music Festival has only been held for two sessions so far, and it will not fully gain popularity until next year.

Today's Coachella Music Festival is well-known in the United States, but it is not top-notch. Woodstock is very famous, but it has not been held for several years.

As for the Los Angeles Music Festival that invited Cao Xuan, the Los Angeles City Government and several associations organized it. This year is the first one. It is said that many bands and singers were invited to come.

Among the guests, Britney Spears is the most popular, and Eminem is also coming. These two can be said to be the most popular singers in the American music scene today.

Apart from these two, there are five or six singers above the first line, which shows how much money the organizers have spent.

But when he actually came to the scene, Cao Xuan knew why this Los Angeles music festival was not well-known.

Damn, this is a trap!
Spears Spears, whom the sponsor Barabara had been playing for a long time, never came, and Eminem was nowhere to be seen. Many bands were independent or underground bands.

Let's put it this way, Cao Xuan, a Chinese singer who has only been in the United States for less than a month, is well-known backstage.

Cao Xuan felt embarrassed for the organizers, but one thing to say, although there are no such popular stars, the scale of this music festival is still not small. The audience is nearly 5 people, and Cao Xuan can hear the sound of thunder in the background.

But most of them are scolding mothers!
Most of these people went for the celebrities, and only found out they were cheated when they arrived at the scene, so it's no wonder they didn't scold their mothers.

The singers and bands in the backstage are a little nervous. The singers of these bands are not very popular. It can be seen that there are limited big scenes. A venue with 5 people is already stressful, let alone the current scene.

Cao Xuan was very calm. He was a Chinese with few acquaintances, and he was slightly excluded. He simply changed his costume and sat in the corner to read gossip newspapers.

What Cameron secretly met with models, Xiao Lizi changed his girlfriend again, Madonna and her husband quarreled, and a well-known real estate developer wanted to enter politics, and he was jumping between the two parties.

The real estate businessman was preparing to run for president in 2000, but later withdrew from the election because he was afraid of shaking hands with too many people and catching a cold.

The strength of the whole life has been stable for decades!

These American editors are bigger than the media in Hong Kong, they dare to say anything, Cao Xuan is very happy to watch.

Cao Xuan was watching it intently, when someone patted him on the shoulder, and when he looked back, he was a handsome brown-haired chick with smoky makeup.

"Hi, are you Chris Cao?"

Cao Xuan looked up and saw familiar eyes, but before she could remember, the girl with smoky makeup introduced herself.

"I'm Avril Lavigne, I've heard your songs, and that 'Natural' is cool."

"Thank you!"

Cao Xuan knows who this is, the little witch Avril Lavigne, the top American queen in the future, at the peak of her popularity, she is no less popular than Taylor Swift, and she is so popular that she can almost be compared with Britney Spears.

It's no wonder that Cao Xuan didn't recognize her for a while. Later, because of illness, Avril retired from time to time, and her popularity dropped sharply. There were not many related domestic news, so she was naturally ignored.

In addition, Avril Lavigne's appearance at this time is also a bit different from later. Simply put, Avril Lavigne is only 18 years old at this stage, and she is full of youthful vigor, cheerful and agile.

Ivy in later generations is more mature, and a little haggard because of the fight against the disease.

More importantly, Cao Xuan is actually more or less face-blind to foreigners, he is fine with those he is familiar with, but forgets about those he is not familiar with.

Scarlett, Anne Hathaway, Gal Gadot, Jessica Alba and other top Hollywood beauties, Cao Xuan will definitely recognize them at a glance.

But singers like Avril Lavigne...it must not be that they have low looks, but Cao Xuan's "ignorance".

Even if it wasn't for Avril Lavigne's distinctive smoky makeup, Cao Xuan might not even be familiar with it.

This girl is quite familiar, and she pestered Cao Xuan to chat, mainly because no one else paid attention to her.

If it was normal, there might be old perverts coming to hook up with the little girl, but now they are all nervous, how can they have that kind of thought, Cao Xuan is the calmest in the whole backstage.

Avril couldn't bear the oppressive atmosphere, so she took the initiative to chat with Cao Xuan to relieve her psychological pressure.

Avril Lavigne, who is preparing for her first album, has not officially debuted yet, but she has started to participate in some performances one after another, accumulating performance experience, and by the way, it is also the response of some new songs to test the water.

The relevant copyright management in the United States is strict. If Avril dared to sing, the copyright must have been registered, and she was not afraid of someone stealing her wool.

There are many singers like her. For newcomers, they do everything possible to show their faces.

The scale of the Los Angeles Music Festival is not small. It may not be a big deal for those superstars, but it is still a very good opportunity for newcomers or singers who are not particularly famous.

"Aren't you nervous? There are 5 people outside."

Avril looked at the calm Cao Xuan, she didn't understand, she just went out to take a peek at the scene, the dense crowd of heads made her feel a little bit overwhelmed, but Cao Xuan didn't seem to feel it.

Cao Xuan put down the magazine, took a sip of specially heated warm water from his cup, and said calmly.

"If you have held a single concert with 10 people, and you have sung in a show that has an audience of hundreds of millions for four consecutive years, all this is a small case for you."

Avril Lavigne: "..."

Other singers heard beside: "..."

Hey, 911?

Throat trembling, Avril Lavigne's eyes widened, and asked stammeringly.

"You...you really attended a concert with 10 people?"

The other singers didn't say a word, and they all pricked up their ears. Cao Xuan corrected him with the pleasure of Versailles.

"It's not to participate, it's to hold a single concert with 10 people, and I once held a concert with 8 people.

The program with hundreds of millions of people I mentioned is called the Spring Festival Gala. Its influence is equivalent to that of your country’s super stars, and it may even be even bigger. "

"FXXX!"

The white lead singer of a rock band scolded, and he didn't know whether to call Cao Xuan for being too pretentious, or the organizer for being awesome, and invited such a fierce person.

"Hundreds of millions of people, so cool!"

Avril's face was full of excitement, and she looked at Cao Xuan full of admiration.

She is Canadian. In 2002, the population of Canada was just over 3000 million, compared with 2.88 million in the United States and about 1 million in Mexico.

In her opinion, the Spring Festival Gala that Cao Xuan mentioned was equivalent to the fact that most of North America listened to Cao Xuan's singing together, and Michael Jackson might not even have such an appearance.

Cao Xuan immediately became the focus of the entire music festival backstage.

It was as if the Bronze Bureau had met the strongest king. No matter whether you were convinced or not, as everyone's rank was at stake, forcing a challenge would be humiliating.

Looking around with bright or dark, jealous or curious eyes, Cao Xuan leisurely raised his legs, and told the interesting story of himself and Britney co-starring in the Pepsi commercial with the newly acquired little girl Avril Lavigne.

Hmph, crowding him out, mad at you...
