Chapter 122 "Baby" Continued

Ps. Thanks to the book friend Deng Shen, I am not a arrogant person who rewards book coins!

A middle-aged man in a suit came forward and said, "Go and get ready. The media and reporters have been waiting for you for a while."

After Leon left, the middle-aged man chatted with Luo Quan alone.

"You must be Leon's sister, Luo Quan, right?"

"Yes, are you?"

"I am one of the managers of Universal Records. You can call me Plinka. We have communicated before."

Luo Quan clapped his hands: "I remember, you called me when Love Music signed the contract!"

Plinka said with a smile: "Yes, I handle the schedule and resource allocation of new employees in the company.

I never thought that you would be Leon's sister, and you would write two such good songs for her. "

"He and I only met recently. I had been living with my mother before."

"Anyway, it's something to be thankful for that you are now a family." Plinka hesitated, then smiled and said: "Although I mentioned it to you once before, I still want to ask you if you are interested in joining us. Universal Records?

I have inquired with Sony, and they said that you are not a contracted artist with Sony, you just signed the distribution rights of your songs to them, and you are still free. "

Luo Quan was a little surprised: "You can even find out about this kind of thing?"

Plinka smiled implicitly: "People always like money, and besides, this kind of thing is not a trade secret."

"It's true that I didn't sign a contract with any company." Luo Quan admitted this generously, "But I don't want to sign a contract with any company either."

"We can make a lot of promises. You can enjoy a lot of autonomy in the contract. I can also give you the highest price in the market for the record sales!" The conditions given by Plinka were very sincere. Similar words, she said at Sony The company’s Director Shi Cun and Penguin Interactive Entertainment’s Manager Zhou Yangwen also heard this.

Luo Quan's answer was consistent: "If I have the opportunity, I will consider cooperating with you, but I can't sign this contract."

"Why?" Plinka's expression was very frustrated. He even offered such conditions, but he still couldn't impress Luo Quan!

Luo Quan looked apologetic: "It's very complicated to explain. In short, I am not short of money, so I don't want to restrict my freedom because of the contract. Even if you say that the contract will have a high degree of freedom, signing the contract means that Freedom is restricted, and no matter how high it is, it can’t get any higher.”

Plinka frowned: "But if you are like this, it is difficult to develop in the American entertainment industry. Without excellent publicity channels, the accumulation of fame will be much slower."

Luo Quan smiled and said: "I have always believed that as long as you are strong enough, success is not difficult. If I bloom, butterflies will come. You should understand this truth."

Plinka sighed: "That's true for a genius like you."

The French manager's sincere solicitation ended in failure. He didn't know what went wrong, so that Luo Quan refused to sign with Universal Records with such generous conditions.

Probably every genius has some quirks. These darlings who are favored by God always have more character than ordinary people. Money is more important to them than anything else.

On the other side, Leon has already taken the stage to launch a new album.

At the press conference, he introduced the overall creative ideas and concepts of his album's songs, and also highlighted the two title songs written for him by his sister.

Media reporters are always very interested in this kind of news. One reporter asked: "What was your sister's mood when she wrote this love song?"

"How do I know this?" Leon answered very straightforwardly, "Originally, this love song was not included in my plan, but the company said that my song did not meet the public's aesthetic taste and forced me to add one.

I couldn't write it, so I had to ask my sister to do it for me. She is a musical genius. It only took her half a day to compose this song. "

"Everyone recognizes your sister's talent. Do you think there will be a chance for you to collaborate on a song in the future?"

Leon replied seriously: "I don't know, it depends on her opinion, I don't care, but I don't like singing love songs, I like Rap!"

"Leon likes singing Rap so much?" Luo Quan asked Seifert curiously in the audience.

Seifert nodded: "He and I met in underground rap competitions. He used to go to battles with those black rappers. At first, he was sprayed so bloody that he couldn't even retaliate, but now Well…………"

"How is it now?"

"In the current underground rap competition in New York, he is like an emperor. He can do ten shows in a row without repeating his vocabulary. He speaks at an outrageous speed. He has been trained to do it."

Luo Quan murmured: "That's really amazing..."

"One of your fans said that she has never seen your smile. She asked me to make this request to you. Now she is watching the live broadcast of the conference. I wonder if you are willing to meet the request of this loyal fan?" a reporter asked Leon said sincerely.

"Laugh?" Leon was stunned for a moment. What kind of weird request is this? Does it mean that he used to have a Sima face?

But it wasn’t that difficult anyway, so I still had the courage to curl my lips.

Well, there was an awkward atmosphere at the scene, and Leon looked stiff when he smiled.

After the jokes, the press conference got to the point.

Lyon's new album will be released in the early morning of the 25th, and at this press conference, he will take out the title song first to give everyone a taste.

Taking advantage of the live broadcast, Leon directly played the only love song in the album, which was the song "Baby" written for him by Luo Quan.

The style of the song is fresh and sweet, and the melody is catchy. You can remember it roughly after listening to it once. All Lyon fans watching the live broadcast were amazed by Lyon's little puppy-like voice.

When he rapped before, he deliberately raised his voice to be high-pitched. No fans had heard what his normal singing voice was like. They didn't expect that his voice when singing "Baby" could be heard this well!

The feeling is like the breeze blowing on the face in spring or the gurgling stream in summer, which makes fans' ears almost become pregnant.

It is foreseeable that after today, Leon will be directly promoted from the younger brother of everyone to the girl killer. This image and voice are so lethal that it is difficult for any girl to resist such temptation.

Christmas is here, and Leon's album "Young" is on the shelves.

The sales exceeded one million in half an hour, directly breaking the sales record of American male singers!

In this new era where young people rule the Internet, the appeal of singers like Lyon is too great. Moreover, the consumption power of girls in the fandom is world-famous. In addition, the quality of the title song "Baby" is indeed high. The combination of many factors makes Lyon created a record that was unprecedented in the American music industry and would be hard to come by in the future.

Of course, compared to his sister's level, it is still a bit lower. The pre-sales of Luo Quan's album alone exceeded two million, which is still the only one in the world's record sales record!

When Lyon's album was selling well, the domestic public opinion environment for Luo Quan was not very good.

On December 25th, there was no news about the new album in Luoquan, not even a single audio clip, as if it was not being produced at all.

Fans ask about her album production progress at Station B every day, and Luo Quan’s reply is always the same: "It is under intense production, please be patient."

"Luo Quan, if you are kidnapped, change the punctuation marks!"

"Why do you feel like a goddess is replying to a licking dog? Why do you just say this over and over again?"

"There are only five days left. Even if a hen lays eggs, she won't be able to lay ten eggs in five days!"

"We might as well discuss what women's clothing Luo Quan should wear."

"I want to go even further and let her dance for us..."

"It's impossible to dance. Luo Quan, a straight girl, usually doesn't even put on makeup when performing on stage. If she really dances, she probably won't be able to move her legs."

"After all, half a month is too short, even a genius can't do it."

Even Station B, which believed in her the most, had completely lost all illusions at this time, and they all discussed what kind of women's clothing should Luo Quan wear on New Year's Day next year.

But Luo Quan showed a smile: "It's time to show your true skills!"

At one o'clock in the morning on the 25th New York time, Luo Quan posted an update on station B: "At 10 o'clock on the 25th Chinese time, I will release two songs on station B, with the themes of Tang poetry and ancient style respectively. I hope everyone You can pay more attention then.”

The time Luo Quan posted the news was exactly one o'clock in the afternoon in China, and as soon as the news came out, the entire B station went crazy.

There are no signs at all. When people release a new album, they can’t wait to have Weibo, Zhihu, Bilibili, and even Penguin Kandian give it all-round publicity, lest anyone doesn’t know about it.

This one is better, she only posted an update on station B. You must know that her current fans on station B have not reached 1 million, and her publicity efforts are almost non-existent. It is like throwing the publicity work to her fans and asking them to help her. Go and make peace for others.

But then again, her Weibo account has been blocked. Where else can she post other than Station B?

Anyway, Luo Quan's first Chinese album is finally coming, and it seems that she has really fulfilled her promise to her fans, writing a song with lyrics from Tang poetry.

I just don’t know which Tang poem to choose. A short one will definitely not work. If the lyrics of a song are just a few lines over and over again, it will definitely be unbearable to listen to.

Then it will definitely be a long poem, and speaking of long poems, Li Bai, the first poet in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, has many excellent works. I wonder if the poem Luo Quan chose is his poem.

A group of netizens also made predictions on this issue. Everyone was guessing which Tang poem Luo Quan would choose.
