China Entertainment: Starting from 07 Kuainan

Chapter 393 Wins Another American Music Award

Los Angeles.

Nokia Theater.

"Lu, are all those reporters asking true?"

Taylor, who was sitting next to Lu Yuan, looked at Lu Yuan curiously. Today, she finally abandoned her curly hair for Taylor with straight golden hair, looking like a young girl.

"more or less."

When it comes to friends, Lu Yuan doesn't do anything fake, and Taylor isn't a loudmouth like Kanye.

Now, because of him, the microphone snatching incident did not happen, and the relationship between Taylor and Kanye did not become bad.

One of them is a country singer and the other is a rapper. There is no conflict whether it is business or awards.

Boss Lu has a good relationship with Rihanna, and Rihanna is in the same circle as Kanye, JAY-Z and others.

A friend of a friend is not a friend, nor is he an enemy.

On the side, when he heard the real owner confirming the rumors from the outside world, Taylor couldn't help but raise his hands and cover his mouth.

Is it true?

At this time, Taylor was not yet the world's top superstar that she would become in later generations. Although her albums sold well every year, country music was still a niche.

After America, Taylor's influence was extremely limited. Her real rise to fame around the world was after she transformed into a pop singer.

In short, Taylor is still 'poor' now.

The annual income is only tens of millions of dollars.

at the same time.

Other singers attending the award ceremony also cast their eyes on Lu Yuan from time to time.

In today's European and American music scene, most singers' side jobs are still at the primary stage, and they are basically related to the music itself.

For example, setting up a music label.

Justin Bieber, who received four nominations for this year's American Music Awards, is a signed artist under Usher's label.

Singers who go one step further probably sell trendy brands.

There are few artists like Lu Yuan who span multiple fields.

The key is that Lu Yuan did his job very successfully.

As a result, many artists have made plans to invite Mr. Lu to learn from him.

Who doesn’t like to earn more?

Because of Lu Yuan, the hearts of the big names in the audience were agitated. Their thoughts were no longer on the award ceremony, and they didn't know where they had flown.

correct.

The list of hosts for this year's American Music Awards includes a Chinese presence. Phoenix TV North America host Liu Ye was invited to serve as the host.

Liu Ye was invited, firstly because of Chinese culture.

Not long ago, Chinese Culture acquired 53% of Star Culture’s shares, and the remaining 47% is still held by Murdoch’s th Century Fox.

Phoenix Satellite TV is also one of the TV stations under Star Culture.

Second.

Liu Ye was invited to be the host because of Lu Yuan.

As the most popular American Music Awards this year, inviting a Chinese compatriot to be the host can also expand the influence of the American Music Awards.

The current Sino-US relations are not that tense yet, and many American companies are coveting the Chinese market.

The same goes for the music industry.

No one can ignore the market of 13 billion people.

As the award ceremony progressed, awards were announced one after another.

Lu Yuan won three awards in a row: [Best Male Pop Singer of the Year], [Best Artist of the Year], and [Best Pop Album of the Year].

Justin Bieber, who originally won four awards, ended up with only a mediocre [Breakthrough Artist of the Year].

Xiao Jia was very miserable this year. In the first half of the year, she was crushed by Lu Yuan, and in the second half of the year, she was crushed by Fruit Sister.

Today's Xiao Jia is far less prosperous than in his previous life.

Although there are still many idiot fans, there are too few representative works, and he can't compete with Lu Yuan in terms of popularity. His situation is similar to that of Chunchun in China.

It has always been shrouded in Lu Yuan's shadow.

Comparatively speaking, Xiao Jia's situation is better than Chunchun. After all, Xiao Jia is born in the 90s, a generation behind Lu Yuan, and belongs to the group of young artists.

……

Ten p.m.

Lu Yuan accepted Rihanna's invitation and went with Taylor to Beyonce and his wife's mansion in Beverly Hills.

If Boss Lu traveled back in time from 24 years, he would definitely stay away from Beyoncé and his wife, because they are also on the Epstein list.

However, although Lu Yuan didn't know about the list, he never got involved in those messy things.

His investments in America, apart from gaming companies, are all stocks and real estate.

He did not vote for ins which was launched in October this year.

Even though he knew that ins would be highly valued in the future, he did not participate in it.

If you look at Douyin's fate in America in the future, you will know that America is not completely free.

It’s best not to use social media apps like Instagram to avoid poking some people’s G-spots.

Those present today are all old acquaintances. Several giants in the rap industry, including Jim, Usher, and JAY-Z, are all present.

Xiao Jia is also there.

Among the people present, only Beyoncé and JAY-Z did not win awards. Everyone else won awards.

Taylor [Best Female Country Artist of the Year], Rihanna [Best Female R&B Vocalist], Usher [Best Male R&B Vocalist], [Best R&B Album], Jim [Best Male Hip-Hop Vocalist], [ Best Hip Hop Album].

However, Beyoncé and his wife debuted very early, so even if they don’t win an award this year, it will not affect their status.

A group of people were chatting, and the topic turned to side hustle.

JAY-Z smiled and gave Lu Yuan a glass of champagne: "Lu, among us, your side business is the most successful, can you tell me the secret?"

"Thank you."

Lu Yuan smiled slightly and said modestly: "Actually, in terms of success, ROCAWEAR is far more successful than all my investments."

ROCAWEAR is a trendy brand founded by JAY-Z. It has been ten years since its establishment. Last year, its sales exceeded US$7 million. In the singer circle, it seems to be the most outstanding one.

"Haha."

JAY-Z took a puff of his cigar and said, "Lu, are you interested in cooperating? I'm going to open a ROCAWEAR branch in China."

"JAY, clothing is not my area of ​​expertise."

Cooperation, of course, is impossible. Lu Yuan himself has not cut domestic leeks, so how can he help others cut domestic leeks?

If we really do that, wouldn’t we become the party leading the way?

"However, there is a project that we can collaborate on. I wonder if you are interested?"

"Oh?"

JAY-Z raised his hand like a big boss.

"Talk about it."

Immediately afterwards, Lu Yuan began to promote Kugou Music.

Anyone in the music circle is unaware of the trend of digital music. Going global with Kugou Music was originally one of Lu Yuan’s plans.

Beyoncé and his wife have a wide network of contacts in the American music industry. Not only in the singer circle, but also in the record company, they also have a lot of energy.

However, Beyoncé and his wife are not stupid either.

Music software is a purely money-consuming thing. Tens of millions of dollars a year are not enough. I don’t know how much Spotify spent to buy the copyright.

At last.

Not surprisingly, the topic of cooperation fell by the wayside.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan didn't care. Kugou Music's main target for overseas expansion was Asia.

He specifically came up with this project just to silence Beyoncé and his wife.

Want to harvest Chinese leeks?

I don't think about it!
