Early the next morning, Wu Hu was dragged by Milk Tea Lun to play basketball again.
Then I had breakfast with Lao Hu and the Mina family. But before the breakfast was over, Yahuazi drove over with Tietie.
"Why did you come here so early?" Wu Hu was a little surprised.
"I promised Nana yesterday that I would take them out for a walk today. Do you want to come together?" Faced with Yahuazi's question, Wu Hu shook his head, "I have an appointment with the president of the Da Zhonghua District of Warner Records at noon, so I won't go.
Lao Hu, where are you and Brother Lung?"
Lao Hu waved his hands and said, "I'm not going either. I'm going to the airport to pick up Peng Xiaobao later!"
Wu Hu said: "By the way, Lao Hu, I asked Sister Cai last night. Sister Cai's flight is also at noon. You can take their family back as well!"
"become!"
Milk Tea Lunze said: "I can't go either. The program team wants me to sing a song in the evening. Later, Fat Tiger and I will go to the venue to see it, and by the way, we can communicate with the band invited there."
After eating, Lehuazi and Tietie set off with Mina and her family.
She drove Tietie to have a conversation with Mina, Mina's sister, and four young people. Her driver drove Mina's parents.
...
At around nine o'clock, Zhan Langjing came to the hotel, saying that he was going to pick up Sister Cai, and then he took Lao Hu and set off. After they set off, Wu Hu and Milk Cha Lun went to the party for a brief rehearsal.
The band of musicians put on a show in front of them.
At around ten o'clock, Wu Hu returned to the hotel, changed his outfit, put on the suit Yahuazi bought for him, dressed up like a dog, called the special car provided by the hotel, and went to the meeting.
The meeting with the person in charge of the flower planting area of Warner Records was relatively smooth. President Chen was very talkative, moved with emotion and reason, and made Wu Hu understand the reality.
For the first record, they were able to give him a 40-60 share because the song "Sugar" was really popular and because Milkcha Lun gave him the job of album producer. Otherwise, no company would be willing to give him such a share.
High points.
If you want to get higher scores, you have to produce better results.
President Chen’s suggestion is that it is best to have songs in the Asian region that are all in the flower language, and also release an English album in the European and American regions. Only in this way can sales in the European and American regions increase.
Moreover, we have to admit that Western countries are obviously arrogant and prejudiced against flower growers. It is not easy for them to accept songs in the language of flower planting. If songs in the language of flower planting are added to this album, it may affect sales.
.
If it were a pure English album, it might even be able to enter the Billboard rankings.
And once the sales of a single are high enough and it can enter the Billboard rankings, it will have a great promotion effect on the sales of the album.
President Chen introduced some music knowledge to Wu Hu that he had never known before, especially the music bulletin board ranking rules at Bald Eagle, which made Wu Hu dizzy and showed an exclamation of "That's it."
, as if he had never seen the world before.
But it is true that he has never seen much of the world. He has spent two lives in the world, and he has been struggling at the bottom. How can he have seen much of the world!
He is not taboo about this. If you don't understand, you don't understand. There is no need to pretend to understand. Anyway, everyone knows where he comes from and what kind of person he is.
But in the end, when President Chen asked him if he was interested in producing a pure English album to test the waters in Europe and the United States, he refused again.
President Chen looked at him with some confusion. Could it be that everything he said before was in vain?
Seeing his doubts, Wu Hu said: "I can hear their arrogance and prejudice from your words, but I can understand that that hegemonic country is like this. So, I can already foresee it, even if I send it in pure English
album, but if they knew I was a flower grower, they probably wouldn’t buy it.”
As he said that, he wiped his mouth and picked up the wine glass, "Since no matter what you do, it may be thankless, why do you have to follow their wishes? Let's consolidate the popularity in Asia first! By the way
There are only a few English songs, and even if only a few people in Europe and the United States are willing to buy this album and be exposed to Zenhana-ryu songs, I think it is a success."
President Chen frowned slightly, "Are you serious?"
"What do you think?"
Wu Hu smiled, took a sip of wine, and continued to eat the food on the table.
President Chen was very enthusiastic and ordered a large table of dishes, probably knowing his appetite. Wu Hu was not polite and had no intention of controlling his appetite.
Staying in shape does not depend on dieting, you need to move.
"This will inevitably lead to a loss of a lot of money and opportunities." President Chen looked at Wu Hu, shaking the red wine glass in his hand, and said.
Wu Hu nodded, wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin, and raised his wine glass, "How can everything go as planned? If you gain, you must lose. How can you have your cake and eat it too easily? Anyway, I'm not an orthodox person.
Singer, why not take this opportunity to give it a try? Besides, my base is in Asia, Europe and the United States. If it works, it will be my luck, but if it doesn’t, it will be my destiny!"
With that said, he raised his glass to President Chen again.
With the popularity of the song "Sugar" on the Internet, if it cannot boost the sales of this album, then you will understand how serious the pride and prejudice in Western countries is. This is a song worth 300,000 yuan
Popular songs are available.
Others don't dare to be so willful, but he is not afraid. If he goes back and picks a few classic songs and puts them in it, even if they don't become popular in Europe and the United States, he is not afraid that they won't become popular in Asia.
If it really doesn't become popular, then stop singing in the future and just make movies with peace of mind.
President Chen suddenly couldn't understand this young man. You said he didn't love money! But the conditions he offered were obviously unreasonable.
But you can tell he loves money! He does it even though he knows he can't do it, just for a little dignity and to promote the song "Zanghualiu".
Young people, can dignity be a meal?
Moreover, promoting the song "Zanghua Liu" is just a slogan!
What are slogans used for? They are used to shout!
He didn't know that Wu Hu just didn't want to get used to those arrogant Westerners. Whoever stipulates that you must follow your rules? If you like to hear it, listen to it. If you don't like to hear it, throw it away!
At the same time, this is his secret counterattack against those public intellectuals. Of course, the probability of failure of the counterattack is a bit high, and the possibility of success is too low.
It's just that he's willing to give it a try. The worst he can do is release an all-English album then! When it comes time to really make money, his bottom line is still very flexible.
But when he can be willful, he doesn't mind being willful first!
Unknowingly, President Chen had to admire this stubborn young man who was full of contradictions. Once upon a time, he had such impulsiveness and aggressiveness!
Since when did the passion stop?
After smiling, President Chen looked at Wu Hu and said, "Do you know how big the loss here might be? It might be millions of dollars in damage. Don't you feel bad?"
Wu Hu, who was holding chopsticks, stopped picking up food and said with a smile: "Some things can't be measured by money, can they?"
Involuntarily, Wu Hu followed President Chen's words and started to pretend.
After a pause, he continued: "These assumptions are only based on failure. I wonder if Mr. Chen has ever thought about it, what if I succeed? How much do you think this will help me? What's the bonus in the country?
, and how many will there be?"
Although he knew that this possibility was extremely slim, he still couldn't help but think about it.
Indeed, if it really succeeds, then this young man's status in the domestic music scene will leapfrog countless veteran singers, and he will be directly parachuted to the top. It is impossible that an album that is not purely in English can sell well in Europe and the United States.
imagination.
But soon, President Chen returned to reality and asked: "What do you think is the probability of success for this kind of thing?"
Wu Hu smiled and said: "It seems that Mr. Chen does not have the scientific research spirit of a scientist. Isn't it worth trying if the chance is less than 1%? I am not afraid as a creator, what are you afraid of as an operator? It's just to learn from it next time
It’s just a lesson. Does Mr. Chen think that apart from this album, I can’t write another album?”
President Chen picked up the wine glass and found that he had been targeted
Fang was convinced.
Although it is crazy and the chance is very slim, he really wants to follow the craziness. What if it succeeds? Then they will create a new miracle in the field of flower planting.
President Chen said: "For your first album, 40-60% is already the limit. I can't give you more. But if this album is successful, then for the next album, I promise to give you 50%-50%. We can
Sign three albums first. But if your album fails, then among the remaining two albums, you must release a pure English album."
Wu Hu clicked his lips, "This condition is the same as what Manager Du gave yesterday! Then what's the point of me having this meal with you?"
President Chen smiled and said: "The meaning is that you got a free lunch and my personal friendship."
"Okay! Then I wish us a happy cooperation!"
Wu Hu raised his wine glass, and the two people who deceived each other initially reached a cooperation.
...
When Wu Hu said goodbye to President Chen and returned to the hotel, Zhan Langjing and Lao Hu had already received Sister Cai's family, and Brother Hai's family had also arrived.
Seeing that Sister Cai still maintained her perfect figure, Wu Hu went up to her and gave her a bear hug, hugging her brother-in-law until his lips twitched.
Seeing this, Wu Hu laughed, let go of Sister Cai, hugged the cheap brother-in-law surnamed Wei, then put his arm around his shoulders and said: "Brother Wei, you should be lucky that you caught up with my sister a few years ago.
Otherwise, I will definitely compete with you. A beauty saves a hero, and the hero has nothing to repay, so he can only pledge himself to her. Do you think this is a good story?"
Listening to Wu Hu's flirtatious words, the others couldn't help but laugh. But Wei Minglong looked complacent, "Of course this is a good story! Do you know how I caught up with your sister in the first place? It's also the beauty who saves the hero.
Ah! So you must be a little late."
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help laughing again, and then looked at Sister Cai curiously.
Sister Cai laughed and said: "The first time we met, he was knocked unconscious on the club's ring. I was the only girl present at the time, and the others were all rough guys."
Wu Hu smiled and said: "Sister, you should have let those rough guys do it at that time. Maybe it would lead to another good story!"
This time, even the cheap brother-in-law couldn't bear it anymore and punched Wu Hu on the shoulder, "Fuck you! Your mouth is really bad. How about we go to the gym to spar?"
"You want to take this opportunity to beat me up! By the way, have you been wanting to beat me up for a long time?"
Wu Hu asked with a smile. After all, if it were his wife who gave artificial respiration to other men, she would definitely want to beat that man to relieve her anger.
Although it is to save people, understanding is understanding, but understanding does not mean not getting angry.
"No! There is absolutely no such thing." Wei Minglong denied it simply, but he couldn't help but glance at his wife, knowing how unintentional his words were, "I just want to see if you can beat that
Brother Qian is the best in the boxing world."
Wu Hu smiled and said: "You can go to any gym, this is fine. As long as you can hit me within ten punches, I will lose."
Everyone else felt that Wu Hu was being too much, but they still started cheering, hoping that Brother-in-law Wei would give the stinky Fat Hu a good beating.
Lao Hu laughed and said, "But you can't slap me in the face! Fat Tiger has to go on stage tonight."
Sister Cai frowned and glared at her man complainingly, "Don't make trouble. If you really want to compete, you have to wear safety gear. What if you get injured?"
"Sister, it's okay. I won't hurt my brother-in-law if I don't fight back."
Sister Cai glared at Wu Hu, "I'm not worried about him, I'm worried about you. You only know some martial arts, and martial arts is not actual combat. Although this one in my family is a little fatter now, he also won the featherweight free fighting championship.
of."
Wei Minglong didn't know whether he should be proud or jealous, but when faced with Wu Hu's arrogance, he was a little angry and felt that Wu Hu was looking down on him.
"Don't worry! I won't hit him hard. The most I can do is hit him on the shoulder." Wei Minglong said, getting into a posture and jumping up lightly.
Seeing this, the others also pulled away a little, leaving space for them.
Although the space in the lobby of the suite is not large, as long as you don't do anything serious and just make a few small gestures, there will be no problem.
Wu Hu stood confidently in front of Wei Minglong and said with a smile: "Punch whatever you want! It's not that I underestimate you, but that I have absolute confidence in myself."
Wei Minglong is shorter than him, estimated to be about 1.75 meters, but his body looks bigger than Wu Hu. He is indeed a man who has put on weight.
But his punch speed was not slow. Although it was just a tentative punch, it still made some onlookers sweat for Wu Hu.
But Wu Hu didn't even dodge, and looked at him blankly, which made Wei Minglong speechless, "Fat Hu, you can't even react to this, how dare you brag?"
Wu Hu smiled and said, "I've seen through the distance your fist can hit. It's obviously just a test. There's no need to hide! If you don't believe me, try again."
So, Wei Minglong directly threw another jab. The speed of the punch was still very fast. Although it was still a test, it was able to hit his face. Wu Hu tilted his head slightly, and then saw the back of Wei Minglong's left hand.
The fists came with a bang.
In the end, Wu Hu still just tilted his head and dodged the backhand punch.
Seeing this, Wei Minglong made a small hook with his right hand. As a result, Wu Hu only leaned back slightly, and the small hook directly missed.
Immediately afterwards, Wei Minglong gave Wu Hu a sweep kick.
As a result, Wu Hu raised his leg, and the opponent's downward sweep kicked him away, causing him to spin in a small circle and instinctively hold the frame with his hands, placing it beside his head.
However, Wu Hu did not move, and just smiled and said: "How is it? I'm not bragging!"
Wei Minglong secretly gritted his teeth and jumped directly in front of Wu Hu. He opened his fists left and right, struck several big swings in succession, and pressed forward with his whole body. But Wu Hu only leaned back slightly and stepped back, and dodged it just right every time.
The opponent's fist.
Looking at Wu Hu's calm and understated look, everyone understood that Wu Hu's reaction speed was far superior to Wei Minglong's.
After ten punches, Wei Minglong stopped playing tricks, stopped, and exhaled, "With your reflexes and your strength, you are fully qualified to become a professional boxer!"
"How's it going? Do you still think I can't beat that money-gaining guy?"
Wei Minglong snorted and laughed, "He's not even worthy of carrying your shoes!" Everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard this.
