The first conversation with Taylor was quite pleasant. Although this middle school girl was a bit arrogant, after being impressed by Cao Xuan's "talent", she really wanted to learn from her.

Cao Xuan didn't say whether he would accept her or not. After all, there were many people who wanted to be his apprentice.

50% of the new generation of Chinese and even Asian music circles are his fans. There are also many young singers in Europe and the United States who admire him.

Not to mention that Taylor is not yet the future number one queen of the United States, even Avril Lavigne, who has become a top diva in Europe and the United States, has often said that she has learned a lot from Cao Xuan.

If she hadn't recognized her god-sister, Avril would have been Cao Daguan's first disciple.

Liu Tianxian, Zhang Jie, Gu Miaomiao and others have been calling them teachers for several years, but Cao Xuan did not admit that they were direct disciples of the Cao family, so they were barely registered.

Taylor wanted to overtake in a corner in one breath, but it was not that easy.

However, after all, after the first day in Future America, Cao Xuan still had some preferential treatment. Not only did he leave Taylor a personal phone number, he could ask her questions at any time.

The two also agreed that if Taylor's first album had a single that reached the top ten of the Billboard singles chart, he would accept her as his apprentice.

The requirement for a proprietary song to enter the top ten is quite harsh for a new singer. Cao Xuan met this condition as a test to maintain his top performance.

Taylor was not afraid, but instead geared up to prove his talent to Cao Xuan.

She is determined to be the founding disciple of the Cao Sect!

Cao Xuan was noncommittal about the bet. Taylor's failure to complete his goal had no impact on him.

Achieving the goal means that Mars Records has created a cash cow, and it is not shameful for him to accept a future American as his apprentice.

Cao Xuan is personally quite optimistic about Taylor. Although his Golden Finger does not have specific performance data for Taylor's debut, his impression seems to be good.

You must know that the company Taylor originally joined was a small company. It is said that when the album was released, manpower was so tight that even Taylor and her mother went to help package the CDs.

Now with the financial resources and resources of Mars Records and the sales channels of Warner, I dare not say that I will release a top-notch Avril Lavigne in one go, but I am very sure that it will surpass the results of the original time and space.

Putting this little girl behind, Cao Xuan is still paying more attention to the trend of his new album "Legend" at this time.

The audio and video distribution channels in the United States are relatively more developed than in China, but even so, the release of "Legend" still caused queues to buy the album in many areas, and some areas even experienced collective stock outs.

Similar situations are still relatively rare in the United States, especially since audio and video channels have become more mature in recent years compared to the last century, and with the explosion of digital music, there have been almost no similar situations.

The Los Angeles Times published these two pictures on the front page of print media and online.

One of the pictures is a composite of several photos of people queuing up to buy Cao Xuan's album. The total number of people is hundreds of people. It looks densely packed and very popular.

And the other picture is of a wooden sign hanging out of an audio store, with red letters on a white background and the words "Tsao, Soldout" eye-catchingly written on it.

Translated, it means [Cao's new album is sold out], which means the store's new album is out of stock.

What's interesting is that Cao Xuan once wrote a theme song for "The Matrix" called "Soldout", and now it's used by him.

These two pictures undoubtedly illustrate the booming sales of the new album, and the title of the Los Angeles Times is also somewhat "sensational."

"Cao, let the whole United States go crazy for him!!!"

This news was once reprinted back home and promoted by Cao Xuan fans.

The Los Angeles Times is still very important in the American media industry. It is the second most authoritative urban newspaper in the country and the fourth largest newspaper in the country.

It is the third largest newspaper in the United States after the New York Times and the Washington Post.

However, the Los Angeles Times had an old grudge with Cao Xuan.

A few years ago, because of Avril Lavigne's scandal, he sued the Los Angeles Times and forced the Los Angeles Times to issue a public apology.

There was not much interaction between the two parties after that. Although the Los Angeles Times did not deliberately criticize Cao Xuan, it did not praise him either. It was indifferent and slightly conflicted.

Unexpectedly, he actually took the lead in bragging this time, and he bragged so much that Cao Xuan himself was a little surprised.

However, he later figured out that his feud with the Los Angeles Times started before Ed Jr. joined Warner Bros.

Edgar Jr. has been in the media industry for many years and has a wide network of contacts. He has some personal relationships with the management of the Los Angeles Times. What was once an enemy has now become an ally.

Cao Xuan's new album "Legend" performed very well, and Little Ed spent a lot of money on public relations, trying to push Cao Xuan into the ranks of superstars.

Although American newspapers do not exclude some real reporters and media, most people still follow the capital. As long as the public relations fees are enough, they can turn your white into black.

What's more, Cao Xuan's new album has already achieved outstanding results. Although their description is a bit exaggerated, it is not unfounded.

In addition to the Los Angeles Times, other newspapers have also sent praises one after another. Edgar Jr. has also publicized other media. In addition, its popularity is enough for a large number of media reports, and the public relations fees only make the reports more positive.

However, except for a few such as the Los Angeles Times, most authoritative media are more restrained, while tabloids and online media are more crazy, with various exaggerated headlines one after another.

"Shocked, thousands of young men and women wandered the streets early in the morning just for..."

"The most awesome in history, a masterpiece that makes Elvis Presley ashamed and Michael Jackson feels inferior"

"That night, billions of people in the East and the West were obsessed with him because of him"

"Demand exceeds supply, nearly paralyzing the U.S. recording industry"

"..."

All this is shocking. Those who knew it was Cao Xuan releasing a new album, but those who didn't knew thought Brother Deng had sent someone to travel again.

Cao Xuan was a little worried when he saw the news on the Internet. It would not cause fans of top singers such as Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson to come to encircle and suppress them collectively.

Just flatter, just flatter, what the hell is wrong!

However, Cao Xuan did not worry for too long, because the new week's Billboard chart was announced in just two days.

He won the extremely rare No. 1 spot on both Billboard charts!

The album "Legend" successfully topped the Billboard Top 200 Album Chart with crazy album sales of 1.1 million in half a week and only three days after its release.

This is also Cao Xuan’s second championship album.

As mentioned before, unlike the comprehensive calculation of the Billboard Hot 100 Singles Chart sales and radio on-demand, the Billboard Album Chart does not consider anything else but only the sales volume. Whoever sells the most every week will be the champion.

Cao Xuan's second album "Relea Color" has won the Billboard album top spot for several weeks.

Although the total sales volume of the first EP album of the same name is not low, it has been unable to win the Billboard album album title due to some combination of circumstances. The highest ranking was third on the weekly chart.

This has always been a regret in Cao Xuan's heart. He wonders if he will ever have the opportunity to realize his dream and have a Billboard No. 1 album Grand Slam in the future.

However, the value of a weekly number one on the Billboard album chart is lower. After all, it’s just a week’s sales, so it’s easy to fake it.

You don’t even need to cheat. For many popular or first-tier singers, as long as their albums are of good quality and their fans work hard to blast them, it’s not difficult to win the top spot on the weekly charts.

Therefore, the weekly number one on the Billboard Album Chart is not that important; the ranking on the annual chart is the key.

If it is number one on the Billboard Album Chart for the year, it also means that the album is the number one best-selling album in the United States that year, which is a very remarkable achievement.

Cao Xuan's last album "Relea Color" has a total sales volume of nearly 20 million, which is definitely the first echelon of album sales that year. In fact, it is very promising to win the top spot on the Billboard album chart.

It's a pity that Cao Xuan's album was released in early October 2003. It only took a few months to calculate, and it was definitely not as good as those albums that were on the charts throughout the year.

Therefore, in the 2003 Billboard album chart annual ranking, "Relea Color" was only ranked seventh.

In 2004, "Relea Color" was sold for a full year, and its stamina was not bad, and it often appeared on the charts. However, not counting the most aggressive months, it still suffered a big loss and ended up ranking third.

This year, Cao Xuan's new album "Legend" was released in mid-February. It has basically been on the charts for the whole year, and it has strong momentum. It is very likely to compete for the annual championship on the Billboard album chart.

Cao Xuan is the annual album sales champion in the Chinese-speaking region. Basically, if he releases a new album, it will be him nine times out of ten.

I have also won the annual album sales championship in Asia once, with my last album "Relea Color".

But he has never won the U.S. sales championship, and Cao Xuan is still looking forward to achieving a new wave of achievements.

When "Legend" topped the weekly album chart, after more than a month, the first number one single from Cao Xuan's new album was finally born.

"Rolling in the Deep"

Cao Xuan’s number of Billboard No. 1 singles has reached [3], and he has also achieved the rare achievement of No. 1 on both charts in a single week. The strength of the new album is evident.

However, compared to Cao Xuan winning the double crown, the outside world was actually more shocked by another achievement.

All 10 songs from "Legend" were on the Billboard Hot 100 this week.

Moreover, these 10 songs are all in the top 30, and a total of 7 songs have been in the top 10. Currently, there are 5 songs in the top 10 at the same time.

In the past, it was rare and big news that all the songs from an album were on the Billboard charts.

The singers and albums that can achieve this are all phenomenal albums. There are only a handful of them, but there are really not many. Many of them are masterpieces of top superstars or super dark horses that have gone down in the history of the music industry.

But today, the craziness of "Legend" has caused many people to ignore this achievement.

After all, instead of all the songs from a single album being on the charts, they care more about whether all the 10 songs in "Legend" can be in the top ten.

The answer is, very likely.

Currently, 7 of the 10 songs on the album have entered the top ten, and the remaining 3 songs have not entered the top 10 because they have just been released.

And their rankings are not low. The closest one is at fourteen, and the one farthest from the top ten is only twenty-sixth. According to the current popularity of "Legend", these three songs have a high chance of making the list.

If once the chart is completed, "Legend" will achieve an unprecedented achievement on the Billboard.

All the songs from the same album have entered the top ten of the Billboard!

Even Michael Jackson, Elvis Presley, The Beatles and other legendary superstars have never had such a grand event with their albums.

The American music scene is completely crazy!

From the previous series of events, any fool would know that Cao Xuan's album is extraordinary and a phenomenon-level album that has been rare in more than ten years.

But even so, they still didn't expect that this album would be so exaggerated, and many music critics did not dare to make judgments easily.
