After arriving in the United States, Ye Zhiqiu began a busy work schedule under the arrangement of Universal Music.

Unlike Yu Caiwei who came here for vacation, he was going to start a global tour, and there were many things to do.

But the concert would not start immediately. According to the plan, he would release a new English album, sing in front of the audience on several talk shows, and then start the concert schedule.

The concert started from the western city of Los Angeles, set off to the east, circled along the American territory, passed through Vancouver, Canada, and finally returned to Las Vegas. This is the concert plan in North America.

Later, according to the feedback from the audience of the concert, it is expected to go to several key cities in Europe. The whole tour is initially estimated to last for nearly half a year and end before the Chinese New Year next year.

Of course, Ye Zhiqiu will also deal with other things in the middle, such as the National Day in October, when "No Man's Land" directed and starred by himself was released, and he must participate in publicity and other activities, and the World Cup held in November, he will sing on stage as the opening ceremony singer, etc.

Universal Music attaches great importance to this concert. This is not Ye Zhiqiu's first concert in the United States, but it is his first global tour.

In the European and American music market, the live singing ability of a singer is very important. No matter how well a singer performs on various online music charts, as long as he has not held a concert tour, he cannot be called a real global superstar.

At the same time, the money-making ability of a successful concert tour is also extremely terrifying. It is not a fantasy to earn hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars from tickets and peripherals.

Of course, high income also means high risk. This time, Ye Zhiqiu's concert was arranged by SG Entertainment according to the top singers in the industry, whether in terms of venue rental or stage layout, and the cost is also astronomical.

Before that, Ye Zhiqiu's new album was used to warm up.

The European and American pop music market is very competitive, and new singers with strong strength emerge in an endless stream, and the update iteration is extremely fast. If a singer does not release new works for a long time, he will soon be forgotten by the audience. Therefore, Ye Zhiqiu's plan is to release an English album every year to maintain his popularity among fans.

The new album released this time also has all the songs written by him, and also contains ten works, including three main songs.

The three main songs are "Viva La Vida", "Closer" and "Enemy".

The first main song "Viva La Vida" is one of the representative works of the previous Coldplay band. This rock song has topped the music charts in more than 30 countries around the world and won numerous awards.

And "Enemy" is a work of the Dream Dragon Band. This song is a bit similar to Ye Zhiqiu's previous singing style.

- Frenzy, high-burning, and explosive.

In addition to the two "hardcore rock" songs, Ye Zhiqiu naturally also added a "little fresh" lyrical song to meet the tastes of different audiences, such as the song "Closer".

This male and female duet song has a bright and catchy rhythm, and the love plots such as male and female passionate love-breakup-reunion in the background of the lyrics are very lethal to the young audience.

In the new album, in addition to the three main songs, two songs he wrote for the World Cup, "Waving Flag" and "We Will Rock You", were also included.

Most of the songs in the new album were recorded and produced in China, and were produced simultaneously with the Chinese album "Black", but "Closer" had to wait until he came to the United States to start recording because this song is a duet between a man and a woman.

This form of cooperation is very common among European and American singers, and there are many benefits. It can increase the charm of music, the fame of another performer, and the influence of the song itself, etc.

Therefore, the person Ye Zhiqiu cooperated with on this song cannot be too low, but it cannot be too high, so as not to "steal the show".

Universal Music spent a lot of thought, and the duet partner finally arranged was also Ye Zhiqiu's acquaintance-Taylor Swift!

In the past two years, Swift has long developed into the most popular new generation female singer in the United States, without a doubt. With her sweet appearance and excellent works, her popularity is not much lower than Ye Zhiqiu.

The cooperation between the two this time is a "strong alliance".

......

The next day, in a recording studio, Ye Zhiqiu, who came to record a song, saw Swift.

After not seeing her for a long time, this blonde, blue-eyed, tall beauty who was almost as tall as himself had not changed much in appearance, but her temperament had become a little more mature.

"Hi, Ye!"

"Long time no see!"

When Ye Zhiqiu came in, Swift, who was sitting on the sofa with a guitar in her arms, immediately noticed him. Her eyes lit up, and she stood up and walked towards Ye Zhiqiu, just about to raise her hand for a hug.

Ye Zhiqiu reacted faster, and stretched out his hand before her to "shake hands", smiling and greeting, while not forgetting to introduce the people around him.

"Hi, Swift, nice to meet you."

"Let me introduce you, this is my girlfriend Yu Caiwei."

Swift paused, and then noticed the figure who followed Ye Zhiqiu in.

The other party's exquisite and beautiful face and outstanding temperament made Swift's eyes flash with surprise.

Although she felt a little disappointed, Swift's expression was normal. After shaking hands with Ye Zhiqiu, she looked at Yu Caiwei and couldn't help but praise her.

"Oh my god, Ye, your girlfriend is so beautiful!"

"Is she a singer like you?"

"Yes." Ye Zhiqiu nodded, "She happened to be on vacation this time to accompany me. Come and see me when you have time."

Swift said "hmm", and looked at the two people standing side by side who were extremely well matched, and a hint of sadness flashed in the depths of her eyes.

Yu Caiwei glanced at Swift and pursed her lips slightly.

She remembered that the other party had boldly "declared love" to Ye Zhiqiu in front of the media interview.

But Yu Caiwei didn't say anything, just stood quietly beside Ye Zhiqiu.

After the chat, the song recording started soon.

Now, Ye Zhiqiu and Swift are both top singers, and singing a simple song "Closer" together is naturally a piece of cake. Soon the two completed the recording.

Logically speaking, today's work is done.

However, when communicating the MV of this song, Ye Zhiqiu had a disagreement with Universal Music for the first time.
