China Entertainment: Starting from 07 Kuainan

Chapter 216 Domestic Violence Man and Temporary Rescue
Los Angeles International Airport.

"Lu, welcome to America again."

As soon as the plane landed, Max informed Lu Yuan of good news.

The sales situation of "Lucas·LU" in Europe is very good.

As of today, the sales of physical albums + digital albums have exceeded 150 million.

That's right.

Within ten days of being on the market, 150 million copies were sold.

This number seems astonishing, but there are more than 40 countries in Europe. Excluding some particularly small countries, there are still more than 20 economically developed countries.

Among them, Eagle Country has the highest sales volume.

40 copies were sold in ten days, accounting for nearly one-third of the sales.

In addition to albums, single sales are also very impressive, with cumulative single sales exceeding [-] million.

Album + single sales, converted into sales amount, are about 3000 million US dollars.

According to the share of the contract, Lu Yuan’s personal share is approximately US$900 million.

of course.

This is before tax.

The calculation of tax rates in Europe is relatively complicated, and the actual money distributed to Lu Yuan is likely to be less than US$500 million in the end.

However, even so, Lu Yuan was very satisfied.

Ten days, 500 million dollars.

50 knives per day, an average of 2430 RMB is deducted every minute, and 40 yuan is deducted per second.

This rate of making money is only slightly slower than that of a money printing machine.

However, as time goes by and lacks exposure, the album sales data will definitely decline. After all, Boss Lu cannot stay in Europe for a long time.

When he arrived at the hotel where he was staying, Lu Yuan took a short rest and then rehearsed with the band.

As the winner of seven nominations, live performances are a must.

The Grammys also rely on traffic. Although the awards are not based on traffic, live performances are still based on traffic, and whoever is popular will be invited.

In this live performance, Lu Yuan sang neither "unstoppable" nor popular singles such as "Counting Stars" and "The Nights".

But the song "please don't go".

The humming in the introductory part of this song is a test of your singing skills. If you don't perform well, it will probably turn the scene over.

To put it simply, Boss Lu is ready to show off his skills.

The organizers of the Grammys were also happy with this, at least it was a gimmick.

……

2 month 8 number.

Before the Grammy Awards ceremony, a piece of news shocked the United States.

In the early morning of the 8th, Chris Brown was arrested by the police for allegedly assaulting a woman and charged with assault, with a maximum prison term of up to 4 years.

The news that a famous singer beat up a woman is sensational enough.

But according to people familiar with the matter, Chris Brown beat no one else but his girlfriend Rihanna.

At first, both the media and fans expressed disbelief in the news.

After all, one is 20 years old and the other is 19. They only started dating last year. They are often photographed kissing and playing in the water, which makes them feel like they are inseparable.

However, as the red carpet began and both of them were absent, the authenticity of this news suddenly increased.

In addition, Chris Brown and Rihanna were both guest performers tonight. Their absence caught the organizer by surprise.

Both of them are heavyweight performers, so it's not easy to find someone to come to the rescue temporarily.

The organizer immediately thought of Lu Yuan.

This live live king can definitely beat someone else.

Therefore, Boss Lu temporarily added a song to his performance. In order to prevent accidents, the temporarily added song was "Counting Stars".

This song is also the song that Boss Lu has collaborated with the band the most.

Not easy to make mistakes.Four p.m.

The red carpet session begins.

Today, Lu Yuan did not walk on the red carpet with Taylor, but went on the road alone. His appearance time was relatively early and he was arranged very early.

While walking on the red carpet, Lu Yuan noticed that there were many domestic media present today.

Including major portal websites and official media.

If you look at the history of the Grammy Awards, Mr. Lu is not the first Chinese to be nominated.

Chinese-American musician Yo-Yo Ma has won 15 Grammy Awards

In 02, Chinese musician Tan Dun received four Grammy nominations for his "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" movie soundtrack, and finally won "Best Original Music Album for a Film".

In 07, Song Tuan received a Grammy nomination for "Best Classical Crossover Album" with "A Hundred Years of Sound".

Last year, Langlang received a Grammy nomination for "Best Performer".

In addition, some Chinese people have won post-production nominations such as the "Best Record Packaging Design Award".

But in the field of pop music, Lu Yuan is indeed the first Chinese singer to be shortlisted.

Four major categories + three category nominations, a total of seven nominations, second only to rapper Lil Wayne's eight nominations.

After walking the red carpet and leaving his signature on the signature wall, Lu Yuan came to the media interview area.

What he is wearing today is a classic windbreaker + scarf combination from Bobari. There is no other way. Since he is a spokesperson, the brand must be taken into consideration for similar important occasions.

As for Semir, when the contract was originally signed, Semir did not force Lu Yuan to wear Semir clothes when attending events.

"LU, I heard that you acted as a firefighter today and added a temporary performance. Is this related to Rihanna's beating?"

As soon as we entered the interview area, reporters asked us questions, which made today's headlines.

Hearing this question, Lu Yuan smiled, but he cursed the organizer in his heart. He only received the rescue notice two hours ago.

As a result, reporters now know the show schedule.

shit!

Like a sieve.

"Turkey, you should ask the organizer about this, not me."

"Lu Yuan, you have received a total of seven nominations for this year's Grammy Awards. Are you confident in bringing the Grammy trophy back to China?"

When you hear this Chinese word spoken in a clear and frank manner, you don’t have to think that it must be the domestic official media.

I turned around and saw, as expected, it was a reporter from CCTV International Channel.

"of course."

Lu Yuan smiled slightly and replied in Chinese: "Guarantee one and fight two, I am still very confident."

When facing domestic reporters, Boss Lu restrained his sharpness a little.

Low-key.

Low-key.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Yuan answered several questions in succession, and then walked into the venue.

Now he is a veteran and will not be easily tricked by reporters.

Entering the venue, Lu Yuan said hello to a few familiar singers, and then got into the backstage.

He had to put on makeup and change costumes as soon as possible.

Because of the rescue, Lu Yuan's appearance on the stage was moved forward, and he performed the second and third performances at the beginning.

The venue for this year's Grammy Awards ceremony is the Staples Center.

Staples is one of the most popular sports centers in the United States. It is also the home of the NBA's Los Angeles Lakers, Clippers, NHL Kings and other teams.

The venue is large enough to accommodate 2 people.

In addition to the singers, there were also a large number of fans present today.

And this is one of the reasons why it is difficult to find rescue guests.

Facing tens of thousands of live fans and hundreds of millions of TV viewers, the singer appears on stage without any rehearsal. If the performance goes wrong, the singer will bear a huge price.
