The opening of China Entertainment Group gave Jay Chou a head-on confrontation

Chapter 631: Miss Chic
"Shit! David! You bastard! I told you my secret because I was using your brother, and you turned around and got together with Annie?!"

"No, hey bro, this is a misunderstanding. I had already made an appointment before you told me that you had a crush on Annie—"

"So you just let her sit on you and talk to me on the phone?! Shit!"

With a bang, the door was thrown open, and the angry man walked away, cursing, "David! David Koeman! It's over between us! Over!"

David Koman, who had hurriedly put on a pair of beach pants and chased after him, stood at the door with his hands on his hips and shouted helplessly: "I can swear to God, this is really just an accident!"

"Fuck you!"

In response, his best friend raised his middle finger without even turning his head.

Anne, the woman who caused the two good brothers to turn against each other, was wearing an oversized shirt and leaning against the corner of the living room wall, watching the friendly and harmonious communication between the two with interest.

"You did it on purpose, huh? You knew he was coming to my house today to get Spike's autographed photo, and he was already here, and you still—"

"Yes, of course I did it on purpose. But my original intention was just to spice things up between you and me. I didn't expect that he would just open the door and come in."

The woman named Annie walked over to David Koman with a smile, wrapped her arms around his neck, and pecked him on tiptoe. “But, let’s take a step back. Don’t you like it this way? Otherwise, why were you so excited in the hotel that night after watching Conan?”

"I do not--"

"Your bottom doesn't lie, honey."

"Oh, god! no, no! please——emmm..."

David Koman groaned, and the expression on his face changed from helplessness and questioning to comfort and enjoyment: "Emmett is a good brother I have known since high school. You can't provoke him like this, Annie."

"Really? It's hard to imagine that you two have known each other for so long. He didn't even dare to say he liked me, but you asked me out the next day and went to bed with me a week later. Your personalities are really different."

Annie smoothed her light pink hair and spoke incoherently.

"His family environment is not very good, which has led to his character being like this. But apart from being indecisive and timid, Emmett is still a very good person. At least he has not become a bad person..."

David Coleman was so comfortable that he pursed his lips and blew bubbles. He felt as if his soul was being sucked away by the devil, and his voice gradually became weaker.

"uh-huh?"

"You may not know, his parents often quarrel at home. When I was in high school, I went to his house to look for him and encountered it..."

The Ferguson family was a well-known quarrelsome family in his parents' neighborhood.

Emmett Ferguson grew up in an environment where his parents had a small quarrel every seven days and a big quarrel every month. He was considered a good child for not degenerating himself to sit at a table with his black friends and play traditional American street community arts.

An alcoholic and gambling father, a tearful mother, and finally a broken and divorced family.

Even so, he was able to barely get into university, although he applied for a loan, but it at least proved how determined he was to break away from his original family.

However, due to the depression brought about by the heavy pressure of his family environment since childhood, Emmett seemed a little timid in school - he would laugh and joke in front of acquaintances he had known for many years, but would not say a word when he met strangers or things.

He is too sensitive, and even has a low self-esteem.

He is so timid that he only dares to have a crush on someone, not to take the initiative to date, and even only falls in love in his imagination. Because only the fantasy love is perfect for him, and he will not repeat the mistakes of his parents.

"Well, then he must have something in common with the singer of the song we heard on the Conan Show the other day. I saw a comment online saying that "Because of You" is the real experience of the female singer named Elva..."

"Real experience?"

.............................................

“Yes, a real experience.”

New York, press conference after the release of the "Elva" EP album.

Facing the reporter's questions, Xiao Yaxuan, who had always avoided talking about her father and wished that this person had never existed in the world, showed no sign of retreat and explained the song "Because of You" written by Zhou Yi:

“Honestly speaking, I don’t really care how many copies my records have sold. What I want to do more is to express a kind of power through music, and the significance of this cannot be easily measured by commercial performance.

“The world is big, so big that I feel there are many people who have the same life experience as me. This EP album is my gift to them. I hope they will not give up hope in life and get out of the quagmire.

“We cannot choose what our original family is like, but we absolutely have the right to choose what kind of life we ​​want to live in the future and what kind of person we want to become.

"In this way, we can prevent those bad things from happening in our future lives..."

In front of a large number of media cameras brought in by EMI, Xiao Yaxuan took herself as an example and wrote a long essay with full empathy.

The reporters at the scene did not expect that the female singer, who EMI calls the Asian Queen, would not talk about the album at the new album release conference, but instead talked about her personal experiences and her understanding and expectations of life.

When others first come to the American music scene, they try to show their most perfect and successful side. I have never seen anyone who first comes to the American music scene and then exposes himself at a press conference. But you know what, the effect is really good.

At least the reporters who were not familiar with Xiao Yaxuan remembered that she was an unlucky diva who had an unfortunate childhood family...

Emmett Ferguson also remembered this female singer whose experience was very similar to his own in front of the TV.

Because EMI was promoting the event, many media outlets broadcast the press conference. David Koman, his long-time friend, was hit so hard that he stayed at home with the curtains drawn all day, leaving the TV on as background music.

He saw it from day to night, and then he heard Xiao Yaxuan’s self-introduction at the press conference.

The overly similar childhood experiences finally woke him up from the shock of not eating or drinking, and he turned his head stiffly towards the direction of the TV...

"My father and mother often quarreled when I was a child. How old was I then? I often hid helplessly in the corner behind the door and watched everything. My father was a stranger to me. I thought he was a scumbag who abandoned his wife and children..."

The more Emmett listened, the more he felt that the strange woman on TV was talking about himself.

Wasn't he like this in his childhood?

His parents quarreled and fought every now and then, and as a young boy he was totally powerless to do anything about it. He could only hide in a corner and shiver in fear. This caused him to become overly sensitive and have low self-esteem when he grew up.

“But I’m doing fine now, yes, I have to say but.

"Each of us is unique in this world. I don't think that a bad childhood will ruin everything for me. On the contrary, a bad childhood experience will make me examine myself more carefully, and then -

“I will try to prevent the tragedy of my childhood from happening again.

"Because, "Because of You"..."

It is precisely because of the sadness of "Because of You" that the emotions that the two sweet love songs "Sun Never Sets" and "U Make Me Wanna" want to express are more prominent.

A strong sunflower.

"I don't think that my bad childhood experience will make me lose hope in love, and I don't feel inferior. On the contrary, because of these experiences, I will have better plans for my feelings and my future..."

As Xiao Yaxuan answered questions and solved doubts, Emmett rubbed his nose and moved his numb body. He tried to search for the three songs in the "Elva" EP album on the computer and found that they were all available on the Apple Music Store.

"Highly recommended by Spike: The elegant lady from the East: Elva's new EP".

This is the introduction of this EP in the Apple Music Store, which is very brief. The comments given are just like Xiao Yaxuan's lack of self-esteem and sensitivity about her childhood and family experiences, very cool.

"This……"

Emmett, who was skeptical, clicked to listen. The straightforward lyrics of "Because of You" combined with Elva Hsiao's unique mezzo-soprano voice struck his heart in an instant!
At the same time, "Conan Show Special: Spike Show" was officially launched.

"It's a pity that I can't see it anymore."

In the VIP room of the airport, Zhou Yi, who was reading a magazine, whistled comfortably: "Anyway, just remember what I said, if you want to make it in the American music scene, you must have something that people can remember or empathize with in an instant.

"The reason why Tao Zhe failed is because he didn't find his own selling point. The fact that he has many girlfriends in the United States is not a big deal at all. His experience as a police officer is of no help. I have already used racial discrimination.

"But you are different. You know, there are many families in the United States who can't find their fathers or whose fathers have been missing for more than ten or twenty years, and they are all your potential first batch of customers..."

Zhou Yi continued to express his views and suggestions over the phone: "You have to understand that the era of female singers in the American music scene is at the end of the Britney Spears trend. You are now holding high the banner of family and female power, which will naturally give the audience a sense of freshness, and it will also enable many people of the same age to find resonance in this song.

“And they are your first voting base in the United States.”

One bite cannot make you fat.

Elva Hsiao doesn't have the ability to copy an entire album. She relies on one song or one EP. The most important thing is to find a field to gain a foothold first and then slowly expand the circle.

The most important thing is that there is really no one on this track at the moment.

Madonna, the leading female power in the American music scene, has been busy with political correctness such as women's rights and gender equality since entering the 21st century, and has ruined herself by neglecting the factor of "family", which exists all over the world but is always ignored by many singers.

It's a banner that was given to her for free, and Xiao Yaxuan still has her own family background as her resume, so it would be a waste if she didn't take it up.

Regardless of whether they are Asian, British, Hispanic, or native Americans, black or white, nine out of ten have probably witnessed their parents quarreling in their homes when they were young and the memories are still fresh in their minds.

Qian Jiang, who was studying the rehearsal schedule for the China-Japan Song Festival in Japan, couldn't help but shake his head with emotion after hearing him hang up the phone - he never expected that Zhou Yi's market positioning suggestion to Xiao Yaxuan before leaving the United States would be this.

Instead of aiming at the traditional pop market, he started with a small area of ​​family songs, focusing on people who share the same pain.

"You always come up with something new for me."
