86 MTV Heroines

Sarah returned to Los Angeles, and the band members, band manager Scott, and Lena followed Quinn to New York.

This trip was for the MTV recording of "I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing". By the way, Bai Quinn also took the company members to visit the "home" of Big Machine Records in Tribeca.

After getting along well, the musicians all signed with Big Machine Records, and now they are all a family.

Sarah couldn't go with her. She had to go back to Los Angeles to prepare for the filming of "Batman and Robin."

Director Joe Schumacher gave her the task of controlling her weight and strengthening her physical strength. She had to learn basic fighting movements from a fitness instructor to adapt to the requirements of Batgirl's action scenes.

After Lina arrived in New York, she followed everyone to the Tribeca office, checked in, put down her luggage and left in a hurry.

The reason was that she needed to see her former boss, Ray Donovan. That poor man still couldn't accept the death of his wife. Not long ago, he even tried to commit suicide. Fortunately, he was saved by a passing police officer.

Bai Quinn was also surprised when he learned about this. There was actually a guy in the NYPD who took risks to save people!

Well, at least not in East Harlem. If you commit suicide with a gun, the police may shoot you in advance because you threaten the life of the police officer.

At least the goal of suicide was achieved...

Putting aside the matter of Lena, let’s go back to the office of Big Machine Records.

As we all know, most of the houses in Tribeca were built at the beginning of the century. Although they are not very old, because they were only built for dock and warehouse workers, the price was not too high, and the cost has naturally been suppressed again and again. After seven years,

, after eighty years of ups and downs, various problems often arise.

Originally, Bai Quinn just wanted Shark Head's engineering team to renovate a few rooms on the second floor so that he could live in them.

However, after the construction staff observed the site, they thought it would be best to reinforce the main structure, paint the exterior walls, and decorate the roof to create a roof garden.

So this high-ceiling two-story building located at 50 Hudson Street at the intersection of Thomas Street has undergone an overall renovation. Except for the recording studio, it has been completely renovated from the inside out.

The first floor still retains the functions of offices and recording studios, but the layout has been slightly changed to make it more reasonable.

The second floor has completely become a living area.

The designer took advantage of the original high ceiling of the building and used a steel structure to separate the upper and lower floors. After the division, the lower floor is used for daily living, and the upper floor can be used as a bedroom with beds.

The minimalist decorative style of industrial style is very suitable for Bai Quinn. The rooftop garden is the icing on the cake. Sitting on the sofa and drinking a cup of coffee, you can enjoy the beautiful skyline on the banks of the Hudson River. The Twin Towers of the World Trade Center are not far away.

It provides a comfortable feeling of tranquility in the midst of the hustle and bustle.

Taking into account the needs of taking care of guests and employees working overtime, the designer also specially built two guest rooms with private bathrooms. They have the same upper and lower structure, with a total of four beds in the upper and lower bunks, which can just be used to temporarily accommodate the band members and Scott.

The stingy boss was not stingy all the time. That night, Bai Quinn took everyone to the high-end Italian restaurant where Motura invited him to dinner, L'Artusi Restaurant, and the group had a feast.

During this time, Bai Quinn talked about Sony's "Hell's Kitchen" recording studio not far away, almost all using Walt's words at the time. By the way, let me tell you, don't look at how awesome Sony is next door, it is a century-old Columbia store

With the accumulation of experience, we are now going to create our own century-old store, and in the future we will become a century-old store. Everyone here is the founding veteran.

Brainwashing, making wishes, and promising that if the sales of singles and albums reach a certain level, they will give everyone big bonuses and red envelopes. If the band becomes really popular, they will lead everyone around the country to make quick money, and buying a house or a car will no longer be a dream!

Of course, if the artists want to compose their own songs when they have free time, the recording studio can use them as they please. If the quality of the songs is good enough, the company will help distribute them.

Not to mention a group of 20-year-old young musicians who were deceived into having unlimited expectations for a bright future. Even Scott, who was in his early thirties, was excited when he heard it and screamed that he would wait until he finished the mastering of his first album.

Recording, I will go back to Nashville to help discover a few potential country singers, bluegrass is also acceptable, no matter how bad country rock is, there is still a market, and contribute to the expansion of Big Machine Records.

Scott used to work at the Nashville branch of DreamWorks and is familiar with it.

Bai Quinn quickly called everyone back to reality. Don't think too far ahead. Everything must be seen in front of you. Ensure the quality and quantity of your first album and finish your first album. Let's have fun together...

Pull and pull to reveal the essence of the capitalist.

On the second day, the band headed to the reserved shooting location, Central Park.

There, the MTV filming team from Wedmark Imaging was already on standby.

They came two days in advance, obtained the filming permission from the park management, finished shooting the scenery frames in advance, and waited for the band to arrive.

Also waiting for Quinn is the heroine of MTV, Liv Tyler!

How did she become an MTV heroine?

This starts with the casting interview for "American Psycho."

Liv Tyler left the call me gesture before she left, and afterwards, Bai Quinn called her out of curiosity.

Liv Tyler was quite direct and said, "I know you won't choose me, but I really hope to work with you. Can I be your MTV heroine?"

If it had been anyone else, Bai Quinn would have definitely rejected it on the spot, which sounded a bit ulterior.

But there’s something special about Liv Tyler…

That day at David Geffen's beach, I watched a performance by Hibiscus, and at the same time won the song "I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing".

Bai Quinn went back to carefully taste the song, and through the lead singer's distinctive voice, he discovered that this song should be sung by Liv Tyler's father, Smith Tyler, the lead singer of the rock band Aerosmith in the future.

This can also explain why this song appeared when he first met Liv Tyler.

Bai Quinn felt in his heart that he owed Liv Tyler's father a debt. When Liv asked to be his MTV heroine, he only hesitated for a few seconds before agreeing.

"In order to star in your MTV, I turned down the female lead in a movie!"

As soon as she met Liv Tyler, she came to complain about Quinn. Although her tone was complaining, there was still a smile in her eyes.

"Yo, Boss, I'm going to take a call..."

Lina, who was following not far away, looked left and right, then stepped aside knowingly, leaving room for the two of them to talk.

"What movie?"

"The secret of love!"

"I remember you said on the phone last time that you don't like to act in such low-budget romantic films anymore, right?"

"Then no matter how much I refuse, the leading actor is still River Phoenix's younger brother!"

"Is he more handsome than River Phoenix?" River Phoenix, a new generation actor who died young due to overdose.

"How can it be compared?"

"That means he's not as handsome as me!" The two have recently made many phone calls across the United States in the name of discussing work, and have become quite familiar with each other.

"It doesn't matter, anyway, I have suffered a lot for this MTV!"

"Then I'll find a way to help you find a role!" That's what he said. In fact, Bai Quinn doesn't have any projects at hand... Wait, how is the progress of "Good Will Hunting"?

Quinn, who only wanted to talk about drama with Liv Tyler, had to spend a lot of time to calm the heroine's emotions and listen to her talk about her experience of appearing on the MTV of her father and her father's friend, and it was her first time on camera.

His partner turned out to be Alicia Silverstone.

During this period, she also expressed her feelings about listening to some of Bai Quinn's song demos, and her admiration was beyond words.

Bai Quinn suddenly remembered that Liv Tyler's mother was a famous flesh-and-blood girl who loved rock music, and even more so rock musicians.

It seems that the daughter inherited this from her mother. If he can't see Liv Tyler's intentions, the original owner with all his experience is just feeding the dog! Should he take the opportunity to eat it?

Although he fell down at the first push, Bai Quinn was actually quite hesitant...

If saying that I met Carmen Keyes before the relationship with Sarah was confirmed is still a reason, and the two parties maintaining this kind of pen pal relationship across the Atlantic Ocean is not a betrayal, then if something happens with Liv Tyler,

Proper Cheating!

During the subsequent filming, Bai Quinn relied entirely on her acting skills to interpret the relationship with her girlfriend played by Liv Tyler. Afterwards, she drank two bottles of ice-cold Coke, burped, and finally suppressed some inexplicable urges.

After eight hours of work, the film crew ended the work on time and will shoot some more shots tomorrow. Even if the filming of this wedding landscape style MTV is completed, with the post-production work, it will definitely be on the market before the Saturday Night Live broadcast at the end of September.

Bai Quinn rejected Liv Tyler's invitation because she had a date with someone, and ran away with Lena, thus escaping a difficult decision.
