China Entertainment: Starting from 07 Kuainan

Los Angeles.

Looking at the news in front of him, Jerry stayed for a few seconds.

Is Lu Yuan really going to quit the music scene?
a long time.

Jerry sighed and returned to life. It seemed right.

Just like after he got married and had children, he gave up many of his previous hobbies. He visited less record stores and more children's toy stores and supplies stores.

World of Warcraft is also AFK.

At most, I can play a few games of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds occasionally.

Then, he scrolled through his phone for a while, and suddenly, he saw a forwarded message.

[OMG, brothers, go check out Universal Music’s Twitter, Lu has launched a particularly cool event – ​​‘You fill in and I sing’]

You fill in for me to sing?

For a newcomer like him who is not well-known, the company will not push him in front of Lu Yuan.

Immediately afterwards, Jerry walked to the bookshelf nearby and pulled out a stack of vinyl records.

"found it!"

From yesterday to today, Lu Yuan's calls have not stopped.

everything i ever had

It was because of Lu Yuan that he learned Chinese in the first place. After learning Chinese, he found that the lyrics of those Chinese songs were very beautiful.

It's a shame it's not a four-star phone.

Fill in a Japanese lyrics!
……

……

After handling these calls, Lu Yuan could finally take a good vacation. After working for so long, he never had a serious vacation.

Otherwise, it will really explode.

That’s it!

Chinese songs translated into English?

The pile was full of Lu Yuan's Chinese vinyl records. Although he had listened to each one many times, he was still ready to listen to it again.

Then, choose a song and bang it to death.

He understands Chinese.

Then he saw the link.

Finally, I took a look at the deadline for the event, and there was still one year left.

When the phrase "Don't compromise until you grow old" came from the headphones, Kenshi Yonezu immediately found the right song to adapt.

Also through the sea of ​​people

Add cannabis.

I have to prepare one or two albums a year, shoot movies, and open a company, so there is almost no private time.

I used to cross the mountains and the sea

cool!

That’s it!

……

To be fair, he really doesn't understand Lu Yuan's withdrawal from the music scene, but he doesn't understand it, and he respects the other party's decision.

After a while, when "The Ordinary Road" was played, Jerry pressed the pause button.

In a blink of an eye, it's like smoke..."

But they have not met.

enough!
In one year, I have to hold it in and come up with a song.

After spending a few minutes reading the content of the event, Jerry immediately regained his energy and geared up to participate in the event.

Lu Yuan has indeed been too busy over the past few years.

What the hell?

"...

Tokyo.

However, this does not prevent him from liking Lu Yuan's music.

He's on vacation, and he's not idle outside.

Kenshi Yonezu is doing the same thing, although he is also an artist under Universal Music and is considered the same as Lu Yuan.

Jerry clicked on the link and jumped to Universal Music's Twitter account.

After all, the coffee positions of the two sides are quite different.

In the past two days, he has dominated the headlines of various media outlets.

Europe, America, Asia, South America, Africa, the whole world is reporting his retirement from the music industry.

Public opinion is also raging on the Internet.

Under his personal scarf, the one that officially announced his retirement from the music scene, the number of messages has exceeded 10 million.

[Boss, don’t retreat, I won’t push you anymore]

[Brothers, support me, go to the Star Media headquarters with 10,000 likes and pull the banner in person] [No matter what decision you make, I will support you]

[Looking forward to the day when the boss returns to the music scene, it will definitely come, right? After all, you said it was just a temporary farewell]

[Support, family is most important]

[We are also looking forward to the day of our return, I hope we don’t have to wait too long]

……

Under overseas Twitter, the situation is similar to that in China, with various messages of support and retention occupying the front row.

of course.

There are also those who object, but those scarves are all underneath, and if you don’t look at them one by one, you won’t be able to see the messages buried underneath.

Lu Yuan also read a few messages. Although those messages were very straightforward, they were very touching.

Especially those familiar IDs.

However, he has decided to quit the music scene. The reason why he added the word "temporary" is mainly to prevent being slapped in the face.

What if I have to make a comeback someday in the future?

One day, he should really let go. It doesn't matter whether he can't shed his vest or what the outside world says.

Just make the music you like.

Or, he turns around and opens a vest to secretly stream music on the Internet or upload music on Xiami.

If you only make instrumental music and don’t record vocals, it won’t be exposed.

It wasn't until a week later that the news about Lu Yuan's retirement from the music scene slowly disappeared from the headlines.

However, the impact of this incident is far from subsided, especially among the fan base.

The chat history of Mina's daily diving fan group has exploded. I don't know how many people @ her, asking her to find out the inside story.

In this regard, she could only pretend to be dead.

There is no inside story.

When the boss quits the music scene, he means returning to life and spending more time with them.

The announcement was very clear.

Be a good lover and a good father.

the other side.

Tens of thousands of emails have flooded into the respective mailboxes of Universal Music and Star Media.

On the day the news was announced, they received hundreds of thousands of emails, but most of them were attempts to retain the company.

There are probably only tens of thousands of poems written with serious lyrics, and most of them are at the level of rejection at first sight.

Although the threshold for filling in lyrics is not high and you can fill it out by just reading a few books, it is more difficult if you want to fill it out well.

Just like writing poetry, what Li Bai writes is that everyone knows those words, but wants to pile those words together and write them down.

That's not something you can do with skill.

The music industry relies heavily on talent, whether it’s singing, arranging, or writing lyrics.

A person without talent who fills in words for a lifetime will still be no better than someone who fills in words casually.

of course.

There are still many excellent works in the massive amount of emails. The first batch of people responsible for review will conduct a preliminary screening, and similar ones will be collected.

Then, the second batch is screened.

The third time, the fourth time, and finally the fifth selection.

Ten versions of each song will be deleted, and Lu Yuan will decide which version to use in the end.

All fans who enter the final selection will receive a royalties.

It wasn't much money, about $10,000.

What is really meaningful is the meet-and-greet. No matter where the creator is, Star Media will pay to invite fans to the venue.

Round trip air tickets, all-inclusive meals and accommodation, and additional travel funds are included.

This alone will cost 500 million to 800 million US dollars.

Really wealthy.

Anyway, Lu Yuan didn't lack the money, so he just thought of it as a promotion for his new album. If he held an event like this, he would definitely earn enough attention.

By the time the album is released, sales will probably explode.

I wonder if it can be like Adele, with sales exceeding three million in a single week?

There should be a chance.

This is a farewell album after all.

PS: This book will be finished around the end of the month, or early May. The pace may be faster in the rest of the book. The main reason is that I wrote it too fast and the protagonist has developed so far that there is nothing particularly interesting to write about.

Continuing to repeatedly brush up rewards and data is not interesting, it is painful to write, and it is annoying for you to read.

This is the first time I have written a novel about entertainment themes, but I didn’t have enough control. I have already written a new book. After finishing the book, I will upload the new book directly. It is also about entertainment themes. Since the 90s, it has been about singers, and the pace will be slower. The writing is A little more subtle.

Pre-collection has been enabled and can be collected in advance. (End of chapter)
