() "Okay! Come on! Come on!" Lin Zhimo stood up like the other fans beside him, blushing and shouting thickly.

After this wave of attacks was over, Lin Zhimo sat down in frustration, and asked Han Qianyu beside him, "How is it? Do you feel a sense of excitement?"

Han Qianyu covered her mouth with her hand and yawned, "What did you just say?"

Lin Zhimo was a little dumbfounded: "Can you still sleep at the football match?"

"Please, is it interesting for twenty or so people to chase a ball on the court?" As time with Lin Zhimo grew longer, Han Qianyu's speech was no longer as soft and weak as when the two first met up.

"Besides, you said you just watch the football, why do you have to invite me?" Han Qianyu was dragged by Lin Zhimo to the football match this afternoon. If it wasn't for Lin Zhimo's promise to give her For the sake of traveling during the holidays, Han Qianyu would never come back to a place full of obscenities.

"Hehe, the reason why I called you is to see what you, a woman, will look like after watching a football game." Lin Zhimo looked at Han Qianyu's eyes again and said helplessly: "It seems that I am If you find the wrong target, it’s better to directly observe the female fans at the scene.”

"Yeah, you finally discovered this mistake." Han Qianyu stood up mercilessly and said, "Then I'll leave the stage first, and you appreciate it slowly."

Lin Zhimo couldn't help but roll his eyes watching Han Qianyu's back as he slowly squeezed out of the crowd.

The reason why Lin Zhimo came to watch the football game today was not for rest, but for a purpose.

Yesterday, when he was talking to a reporter from Time Magazine, a thought suddenly flashed into Lin Zhimo's mind.That is a method about how to better make yourself more famous abroad-football songs.

To be exact, it is the World Cup football song!

Who is Ricky Martin?I am afraid that almost no Chinese knew his name before 1998, but after the 98 World Cup, his name spread all over the world in an instant, and his personal fame surpassed all singers in an instant with the song "Cup of Life". .

In the music scene in 98, Ricky Martin was the well-deserved No. [-] celebrity.

This is the influence of football, the world's number one sport, and this is the influence of the World Cup!

Now, the 2002 World Cup is the first World Cup held in Asia. Although it is not held in China, Lin Zhimo still wants to take advantage of this Dongfeng to get a share.

He wants to write a song for the World Cup, and write a song that can be used as the representative track of this World Cup.

Watching football games now is a way for Lin Zhimo to brew up his feelings in advance.

After watching the football game, Lin Zhimo didn't rest when he returned home, but took out the player and continued to play some football match highlight CDs he just bought.

While Lin Zhimo was watching the game, his cell phone rang suddenly.When I opened it, it turned out that it was Shakira calling.

"Hey, Lin, have you created any good songs recently?" Shakira asked with a smile.

"No, why, have you written any amazing works?" Lin Zhimo teased.

Some time ago, when the two of them were talking on the phone, Shakira said that he had created a very nice song.But after listening to it, Lin Zhimo said that the melody of this song is really good.But it may not be popular with the market.

Shakira naturally disapproved of this.After all, Lin Zhimo is Chinese, no matter how good his vision is, it is impossible to know what kind of songs American audiences like.As a result, that EP received a cold reception from the market once it was released, and it can even be said that it was the worst-selling one since Shakira's debut except for the first album.

But Shakira was naturally unwilling to hear Lin Zhimo's ridicule.So he retorted and said: "Yeah, I can't write good songs, but you have nothing, hum..."

Lin Zhimo shook his head and smiled, "I'm Ning Que Wulan, huh..." Just as Lin Zhimo was about to continue talking, a melody suddenly appeared in his mind, and he hurriedly said to Shakira: "I have an inspiration now, Wait a minute!"

After speaking, he hung up the phone without waiting for Shakira's reaction, and immediately took out a pen and paper to start recording.

At the other end, Shakira's expression was a little dull when she heard Lin Zhimo's words: "This... the inspiration will come if you have it. Could it be that you deliberately made an excuse not to answer my call?"

But after thinking about it, it should be impossible, after all, the two of them have talked on the phone a lot, and Lin Zhimo has never hung up the phone with this excuse.Thinking of this, Shakira's curiosity was also aroused. She was planning to go shopping and stopped packing herself, planning to call Lin Zhimo back after a while.

When Lin Zhimo was on the phone with Shakira just now, his eyes had been watching the football match on TV, and at that moment, the camera turned to the fans at the scene - the fans at the scene had their faces painted with camouflage, their hands Waving countless flags, the scene of overwhelming the sun hit Lin Zhimo's mind at once.

Lin Zhimo kept writing, the melody and lyrics were written down in one go, and because it was promoted as a track for the World Cup, Lin Zhimo wrote the lyrics in English this time.

After writing it, Lin Zhimo revised it twice, and after a little consideration, he began to write some of the Chinese lyrics. By the time he finished modifying the Chinese lyrics, it was already eleven o'clock in the evening.

"Hi, Shakira, are you still there?" Lin Zhimo remembered that he was on the phone with Shakira just now.

"Of course, how about it, what kind of song did you write this time?" Shakira hurriedly asked without caring about the pleasantries.

"Haha, the song I wrote this time sounds really good. It's a song about football." Lin Zhimo didn't hide anything from Shakira.

"Soccer song? Like 'Cup of Life'?" No wonder Shakira would ask this question. After all, the 98 World Cup has just passed, and that song almost took away the charm of the World Cup itself, so that many People know this song and Ricky Martin, but they don't know that this song is the theme song of the World Cup, let alone who the champion of that World Cup is.

"Well... In my opinion, this song is naturally better than 'The Cup of Life', but..." Lin Zhimo suddenly thought of his identity as a Chinese, and couldn't help hesitating.

Discrimination exists everywhere. Lin Zhimo doesn't think that creating a song that can be popular all over the world will really make his name as popular as the song. In this era where everything is based on European and American countries, Lin Zhimo Zhimo's song is very likely because the singer is not popular.

"What's the matter, is there any problem?" Shakira suddenly tensed up when she heard Lin Zhimo's unconfident words, and hurriedly asked with concern.

"It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of some problems..." Lin Zhimo was about to tell the other party his worries, when a flash of light suddenly flashed in his mind, and he blurted out: "Shakira, why don't we sing this song together?" Sample?"

"The two of us?" Shakira was taken aback. She didn't expect Lin Zhimo to make this suggestion suddenly, "Why did you bring me along? Is this a duet song?"

"Strictly speaking, I can sing this song by myself, but you know, I have nothing to do with the World Cup Organizing Committee." What Lin Zhimo said is true. He has not signed a contract with any major music record company. , even if this song is sent to the World Cup Organizing Committee, it will probably go nowhere.

Originally, he wanted to promote this song as a World Cup song through other promotion methods to increase the influence of his song in Asia, but he suddenly realized that Shakira signed a contract with Sony, an international record giant, so There is an idea of ​​cooperation in my heart.

"That means you just fancy the Sony record behind me?" Contrary to Lin Zhimo's expectation, Shakira's voice suddenly became cold after hearing this sentence.

"Eh..." Lin Zhimo could naturally hear the dissatisfaction in Shakira's tone, and quickly added: "Of course not, in fact, what I value more is your role in this song! The song is very suitable for your Latin style. Among the people I know, I can't find a singer who is more suitable than you. You will definitely add a lot of charm to this song."

"Really?" Hearing Lin Zhimo's explanation, Shakira turned into joy and asked, "What's the name of your song?"

"Flags flying!" (To be continued...)
