In this week, "Faded" finally fell from the top spot on the Billboard, ranking third.
The top two are all new singles by top European and American singers.
And Li Qing finally completed the creation of fifteen English songs.
In addition to "tik-tk" which has been handed over to BGM Company, the remaining fourteen songs are:
"lve-try" (love story)
"afe-and-nd"
"rlling-in-the-deep"
《innene》(Innocence)
"beae-f-y&nbp;" (because of you)
"e-amp;nbp;are-amp;nbp;never-amp;nbp;ever-amp;nbp;getting-amp;nbp;bak-amp;nbp;tgether" (We can never go back)
《bing》(burning)
"alk-aay"(walk away)
"tpid-pid" (Stupid Cupid)
"dream-it-pible" (Dream becomes possible)
"reking-ball" (love wrecking ball)
"everybdy"(everyone)
"y-belng-ith-me" (Be with me)
"i-anted-y" (I need you)
Each of these songs, taken alone, can make an unknown singer famous. They are also among the English songs that Li Qing was familiar with in his previous life, and they are the songs that are treasured in the playlist and listened to over and over again.
Every song basically hides a story that is touching, poignant, tragic, or clear.
A good song will not reduce people's love for it because of the changes of the times and the passage of time.
Li Qing believed this.
Therefore, he also firmly believes that after Taylor sees these songs, he will take the initiative to sign a contract with him with a liquidated damages of up to 100 million US dollars.
In fact, when recording "Tik-tk", Taylor had already signed the contract handed to her by Zhou Shu.
Later, Zhou Shu asked Taylor: "Do you regret it?"
Taylor said: "I just want to sing, I don't care about other things."
Zhou Shu was moved for a time, and Li Qing was also moved, so the remaining fourteen songs were immediately sent to BGM Entertainment in Los Angeles.
…
Victor has been very busy recently, extremely busy.
Compared with his previous leisurely life of reading newspapers and drinking tea every day, he was both happy and miserable in the busy days now.
Fortunately, his salary has increased, but unfortunately, with the increase in salary, his business volume has also increased significantly.
Who made him the e of BGM Entertainment?
After moving into the new company building, Victor began to lead Jess, Becky and others under Zhou Shu's instructions to place notices in the talent market to recruit talents.
It took almost a week to finally build up a team that the company should have.
Various recording and filming equipment that an entertainment company should have were also purchased one by one.
The team that originally numbered less than ten people has rapidly expanded to nearly fifty people.
In addition, there are production plants. BGM’s production plant is too small and absolutely needs to be replaced. After finishing the company’s recruitment, Victor drove his second-hand car around the suburbs of Los Angeles.
Find a factory.
Soon, Victor, who had funds in hand, fell in love with a factory.
This factory originally specialized in producing Hollywood character figures. Due to poor business operations and losses in the accounts, the newspaper posted information about the sale of the factory building as early as two months ago.
But Victor only took a fancy to the size of the factory, and he didn't need the machinery in the factory at all.
But the original factory owner insisted on selling the machinery and the factory together. For this reason, it took two months and the factory was still not sold. All the people who were interested in taking over the factory were frightened by the conditions of the package sale.
Ran away.
Victor likes this factory very much. It occupies a very large area, which is more than ten times the size of BGM's original factory.
But record companies can’t use the machinery used to produce models...
It would be okay if the price was cheap, but these machines are worth more than twice the price of renting a factory for one year.
After repeated talks to no avail, Victor had no choice but to give up on the factory and continue searching.
But after going round and round, Victor never found a suitable target, and finally he told Zhou Shu about the situation.
Zhou Shu told Li Qing about this situation again.
As soon as Li Qing heard this, he immediately agreed to purchase the factory and purchased the machines for producing figures at a low price.
The final transaction price was 60% of the original price of the machine. The most important thing is that these machines are still very new and have not been used for a long time.
Li Qing's idea is that after "Harry Potter" is made into a movie, as the copyright holder, it will be perfect to produce movie characters and Warcraft figurines. Of course, before that, Li Qing has to bear the responsibility of these machines.
maintenance costs.
After finding the factory, Victor immediately purchased the production line.
As long as they have money, Americans can do things faster than they imagined. In less than three days, the factory successfully added three production lines.
Immediately afterwards, there is the recruitment of workers, production line training, and preparation for the production of records.
On the other side, "tik-tk" has finally been completed after countless recordings, and will soon be produced in large quantities as a single album.
On the same day, Li Qing sent all fourteen songs he had written to Los Angeles.
When Taylor saw the fourteen lyrics and music scores, the smile on his face was so bright.
Zhou immediately ordered the sound engineer to start recording the fourteen songs, and then, together with Julia and Taylor, began to read through the fourteen freshly obtained songs.
An hour later, Julia suddenly rubbed the corners of her eyes and said, "I'm going to register the copyright for these songs now."
"Don't worry, this can be done at any time." Zhou Shu said without raising her head.
But before she could lose to Oha, Julia had already disappeared from the office.
"Jy, you should understand Julia's mood."
At this time, Taylor looked up and showed a bright smile: "If you were a singer, or if you knew the value of these songs... you might be more cautious than her."
Zhou Wei looked at Taylor with a dumbfounded look: "You were just a newspaper editor a year ago, okay? Have you forgotten the fact that a year ago you were tone-deaf? Why does your tone sound like you have been in the music industry for many years?
senior?"
Taylor's eyes were filled with resentment: "Although I am a newspaper editor, I have been studying music very seriously for more than a year, okay?"
Zhou Shu thought the same, especially in the past two months, because of the popularity of "faded", Taylor has skyrocketed to the sky and become famous all over Europe and the United States. Now she is not just famous, but she is definitely well-known.
Singer.
During this time, Taylor had frequent contact with major European and American musicians, singers, managers, and even professor-level music masters. Taylor's growth is obvious to all. Through communication, Taylor's understanding of music is also accelerating.
For now, Taylor's sensitivity to a good song is definitely much greater than that of Zhou Shu.
As for the fourteen songs in his hand, although Taylor has not finished reading them and has not really seen them in their final form, Taylor can still feel their weight. It can be said that every word is worth a thousand dollars.
Why do you say that?
Because no matter which part of these songs Taylor hums, he can hum an extremely beautiful melody.
It seems that in these songs, every chord is in the perfect zone, every word is indispensable, and they all have a powerful soul.
This is very powerful.
Don't be afraid of poor quality goods, be afraid of comparing goods.
During this period, due to Taylor's rapid rise to fame and her heavenly voice, many European and American songwriters sent her manuscripts like crazy, willing to use their songs for free.
Taylor was very excited at first, thinking that maybe the songs for an album could be put together just like this!
But it didn't take long for her to discover that the quality of the works written by songwriters coming from all directions was simply too bad to look at.
Let's put it this way, if Taylor hums a song casually, even if there is no tune, just the sound of Taylor's voice is a hundred times more beautiful than the music they wrote!
Therefore, when I see Li Qing's works, the excitement that comes from my heart is simply indescribable.
For example, in this song "alk-aay", after Taylor sang a few words, she felt trembling all over, as if it resonated with her soul.
