American Fortune Life

Christmas is getting closer and closer, and the festive atmosphere of the United States has begun to heighten. Los Angeles, the second largest city in the United States, has almost turned into a sea of ​​red. Red Christmas costumes occupy the colors of many stores and shopping malls. Some people wearing Santa Claus costumes are ostentatiously crossing the street. Most parents bring one or two children, or a family, into the major shopping malls for shopping.

This is the first time for Andy to have an authentic Christmas. He used to celebrate foreign festivals in Rabbit Country, but it is not his traditional festival after all. It is just that some women want presents in a clever name, and some men take the opportunity to harm girls. .

Andy sat in the car, looking at the bustling scene along the way through the car window. Every store was hung with garlands, and the doors and windows were all decorated. After all, some of the bigger stores even made Christmas windows.

To be honest, the atmosphere is similar to that of Rabbit Country after the new year. It is happy, lively and busy. Everyone, no matter adults or children, walks on the road with big bags and small bags with happy faces.

It’s still three days before Christmas. The Christmas shopping season starts very early. The price war on Black Friday has brought down the integrity of the American people to the lowest point. What the hell is quality? In the middle of the night, I started queuing up to wait for the mall to open the gates to release people, and then ran all the way, and started buying like crazy, just like the goods don’t cost money.

In fact, Andy can't figure it out. In such a scene, some tramples, fights for goods, and fights abound. Nima, they still have the face to laugh at the army of local tyrants in the rabbit country!

It's nothing more than envy and jealousy. The economic downturn makes ordinary people in the West buy wildly during the discount season, while the local tyrants in the Rabbit Country line up a long queue to sweep away all luxury brands, which makes Westerners tired and disgusted. It is understandable that the water is overflowing desperately. After all, it would be strange not to scold my mother if I ate bran-swallowed vegetables and looked at the delicacies of the neighbors, and went out of my way to waste them. . .

The school was already on vacation. Originally, Andy was going to pack his bags and prepare to fly to Washington to spend Christmas with his parents and grandparents. However, the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. A phone call from his mother disrupted all his arrangements.

Since his unreliable uncle took his family to Switzerland for vacation, this year's Christmas, his grandparents will not be accompanied, and Andy needs to fly to Texas to spend Christmas with his elders.

Andy doesn't care, but Ivana, who packed her luggage in New York and is looking forward to leaving her family and going to Washington to spend Christmas with him, is a little depressed. Well, Texas is also good, mainly because of who to spend Christmas with , Ivana now wants to fully cut into Andy's family life. As a strong woman who likes to hold the initiative in her hands, she will not let go of the things she is sure of easily.

But before flying to Texas, Andy still has two things to do. Since his music single broke the million-selling mark, people from Universal Music have approached him more than once, hoping that he would release another single. I'm getting bored.

Of course Andy is happy to make money, but that's not how things are done. Two single cds are released in two or three months. Nima, this is so shameless. He doesn't want to be misunderstood as trying to make money. Therefore, I did not agree at that time, and the reason I used was to express my concerns.

The people from Universal Music have also lost their move, and Andy's concerns are justified. What they hope most is that Andy can release an album, but judging from the current situation, it is unlikely. After leaving disappointed, they will go back and report. The director of Universal Music directly called Fat Carl, who was buying the copyright of talent shows in two small countries in Europe at that time.

Carl naturally hopes that Andy will release a new single. After all, the income from the record and the copyright of the novel will be transferred to the copyright company's account. Now the company's account is running out of money, and Andy's blood is pumped out again and again. Some of the plans simply couldn't go ahead.

So, he told the people at Universal Music, isn’t Christmas coming soon? He had seen a Christmas song in the song written by Andy before, and recorded the MV first, and it will be broadcast on TV around Christmas. ,

Wouldn't it be possible to solve Andy's concerns by working overtime to record the record?

The director of Universal Music who was instructed to come directly to the door. As soon as Andy heard what the other party said, he knew that the fat man had stepped in again. However, since he had a good reason and could make money, he naturally would not refuse, so he happily I agreed to come down.

"When Christmas Comes to Town", one of the top ten Christmas hits, Andy shamelessly took it out. If "Jingle Bells" hadn't already existed, he would have taken it out without hesitation. Unfortunately, It's over.

However, "When Christmas Comes to Town" is also very classic. It was an episode of an animated film in the previous life, sung by two children. Once it was released, it became popular all over the United States. It is also one of the classic English songs in Andy's previous life music library. This world has not yet appeared, and it is very shameless to register the copyright, and now is the time to take it out.

(Stop making complaints, those who are serious about it, use the timeline of the little devil as the benchmark, no matter how shameless or shameless, the little devil admits it!)

The music recording is almost finished, and Andy is now going to the studio of Universal Music to record the MV. It's not a plot MV, it's the scene when he was recording a song in the recording studio, and the two people he found for him to harmonize. The video clips of two little boys interacting together, today used to record some shots under the Christmas tree wearing Santa Claus costumes.

In order to make money, Universal Music also worked hard, especially after hearing the demo recorded by Andy, it began to contact the TV station at that time to prepare for the opportunity to broadcast during the prime time of public relations. Production stopped and production started, and the album cover was produced after deciding to release a Christmas single. Andy really has nothing to say about Universal Music's work efficiency.

In the studio, it has been completely decorated, all the iconic items of Christmas are filled, the Christmas tree is also covered with decorations, and some big gift boxes are piled up together, Nima, they also brought a living reindeer with antlers It's really big, with lots of forks, and this buck has a very strong body, and a man is feeding beans to it with his palm spread out.

Andy is still a little worried about the need to interact with this reindeer. Nima, the hideous antlers on the body will definitely be miserable. He was going to refuse, but after repeated assurances from the person in charge of Universal Music and the reindeer owner, Andy agreed to try.

Well, this buck named Bambi is indeed well domesticated, very obedient and obedient, but the pair of antlers are too scary, and the shooting effect is not bad.

After two or three hours of busy work, all the necessary shots were taken, and there was nothing else to do with Andy, and the people from Universal Music would immediately start editing. What they meant was that they wanted to show it on TV tonight. , The single cd will start selling tomorrow. After all, it has been several days since the news that Andy will release a Christmas single. Although the market warm-up time is a bit short, according to Andy's current appeal, it should be enough.

Because of the "Wall Street Journal" report, Andy is now almost the latest idol of American teenagers, whether they are good kids or rebellious kids. Take out the classic case of educating those children who are in the rebellious period at home and messing around outside.

Knowledge changes destiny. The latest spokesperson for this sentence is Andy Smith. Sometimes when he sees some educational newspapers and magazines praising his articles, Andy feels dumbfounded. Fortunately, his skin has been tempered and the needles can’t penetrate it. He accepted all orders calmly, and praised them as much as he liked, anyway, he only needed to pretend to be coercive silently.

Back home, Liu Yan has already prepared lunch, and she will leave in the afternoon to spend Christmas with her daughter's family, and Andy still needs to record an episode of "The Ellen Show", a Christmas special.

For Allen's ability to invite Andy Smith to appear on the show at any time, both the TV station and the program group admire Allen very much. Some of the guests and friends this woman made are really very face-saving. Andy has not been on the show during this period of time. any program.
