Giant of the times
Chapter 174 The record company is facing a formidable enemy!
Li Xueyu then took out a contract and officially signed Michael Jackson to Violet Records.
The moment Li Zetian saw him signing his name, he was overjoyed. This is Michael Jackson. What an awesome singer. Now that he has become an artist under his own company, this sense of accomplishment is quite satisfying. In the future, when the company engages in product endorsements, guest appearances in movies, or other activities, inviting him is not just a matter of words?
Celebrity effect and fan economy exist in any era.
In the past, it was mainly literati and poets, but now it is mainly film and television singers.
In the previous life, Sina’s Weibo had few users at first, and it was useless even after spending a lot of money to promote it. However, since it invited celebrities to open Weibo, it didn’t take long for Weibo to become popular because fans of celebrities signed up and followed Weibo one after another. His idol has led to a surge in popularity on Weibo. Another example is that when Tencent developed the QQ chat software, it was not very popular. Ma Huateng had to personally play various roles to chat with people, pretending to be silly and cute, pretending to be women, and flirting. It is difficult to understand how difficult this process was. If a large number of celebrities register for QQ accounts to promote and build fan groups, and fans have to register QQ accounts one after another and then join the group, I am afraid it will not take long for QQ to become popular.
To sum up, celebrities are a very useful resource, and Li Zetian naturally wants to keep them in his hands as much as possible!
"Jackson, you don't have to worry about Philadelphia International Records. Fina Lee will talk to them. You will come to Violet Records to record a new album starting tomorrow!" Li Zetian laughed.
Michael Jackson nodded and immediately asked: "Has the company helped me write songs?"
"I helped you write three hit songs. For the remaining songs, the company will contact well-known composers to write songs for you. Of course, you can also consider writing your own songs." Li Zetian responded with a smile.
"Mr. Li, I hope to find the album producer Quincy Jones. I collaborated with him on my last best-selling album "Off-The-Wall"! He is a very powerful producer, and You have a better understanding with me!!!" Michael Jackson thought for a while and made his request.
"No problem," Li Zetian nodded and smiled. Quincy Jones is indeed an excellent album producer, and he also collaborated with him on the most representative album "Thriller" in Michael Jackson's music career. This album has become the number one album in many countries around the world, and has spawned 10 singles that have topped the list seven times in a row. "Thriller" was later included in the National Recording Archive of the United States Library of Congress, becoming part of the "cultural, historical, and aesthetic record" of the United States. "Thriller" album sales reached 104 million copies, unrivaled in the world, and generated US$4.1 billion in revenue. As for the influence, it is even more difficult to describe!
Li Zetian turned to look at Li Xueyu and asked, "Jingqiu is recording songs in the studio?"
"Yes, Mr. Li." Li Xueyu nodded.
Li Zetian then turned to Michael Jackson and said: "Another signed singer of the company is currently recording in the recording studio. I will take you to get to know him. The company currently only has two signed singers."
"Okay, Mr. Li." Michael Jackson was shocked. He knew that the other signed singer was Li Zetian's wife, and she should not be regarded as an ordinary signed singer.
After a while, everyone arrived at the recording studio. Yu Jingqiu was singing affectionately with headphones on, but she didn't notice Li Zetian and his group walking behind her.
Michael Jackson was shocked at this time, because he felt that this song was great and a very rare classic!
"Is this a song written by Mr. Li? It is said that all his wife's songs were written by him alone..." Michael Jackson was surprised and confused.
After Yu Jingqiu finished singing, she took off her headphones and was slightly surprised to see so many people around.
Li Zetian clapped and said, "Yes, you sang very well!"
Yu Jingqiu smiled and said: "The key is to write the songs well."
Li Zetian pointed at Michael Jackson and introduced: "This is Michael Jackson, the second signed artist of Violet Records."
"Hello, Mrs. Li, I am Michael Jackson. Nice to meet you!" Michael Jack took the initiative to step forward and greeted him humbly and politely. Opposite him was the proprietress. How will you do here in the future? Look at her attitude.
"Hello, Jackson!" Yu Jingqiu nodded and smiled. At the same time, she looked at him carefully, thinking that a singer appointed by Zetian must be extraordinary!
"Dear, I think the song "I'm -Yours" has been almost finished. We can record the second song. Dongfang Yuqin, bring me a pen and paper." Li Zetian looked at Dongfang Yuqin and ordered. . In fact, Li Zetian deliberately wanted to show his talent in front of Michael Jackson, so that Michael Jackson would be confident and determined to join Violet Records.
Soon, Dongfang Yuqin brought paper and pen. Li Zetian spent a minute or two writing a new song - "My-Heart-Will-Go-On", the theme song of the "Titanic" movie sung by Canadian female singer Celine Dion in 1997! ! !
There is no doubt that this song is a classic among classics!
Yu Jingqiu took the music score and looked at it for a while, her face full of shock, because this song was so well written and very difficult.
"You try to sing, and I will accompany you on the piano." Li Zetian said, sitting in front of the piano.
Yu Jingqiu nodded and took a deep breath.
At this time, the piano sounded, and Yu Jingqiu began to sing along with the rhythm:
"Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you
…
"
For a moment, everyone was amazed. Although Yu Jingqiu's performance was slightly flawed because she was not familiar with the song, it did not hinder everyone's appreciation of the song.
Li Xueyu exclaimed: "The melody is very lyrical from the initial gentleness to the excitement, then to the lingering climax, all the way to the soul-stirring tragedy at the end. It can definitely be called a classic among love songs!!!"
Li Zetian smiled and said: "It would be even more perfect if the Irish tin whistle was added to the soundtrack. The Irish tin whistle with a strong national flavor will make the song more melodious, melodious, poignant and moving!"
After everyone heard this, they couldn't help but imagine the effect of adding the Irish tin whistle to the song, and they were deeply moved.
Michael Jackson was inexplicably excited now, "Chronos Li is so good at writing songs, how about the three songs he wrote for me?" Michael Jackson was full of curiosity and eager to know.
Li Zetian was thinking of someone at this moment, because when he sang the song "My-Heart-Will-Go-On", he thought of the pop queen Celine Dion. She is also one of Li Zetian's favorite female singers, and she is still A little lolita. However, Celine Dion debuted very early. In 1980, 12-year-old Celine Dion entered the singing world. She was born with a good singing voice and a super potential stock.
Do you want to be raised as a loli?
Li Zetian couldn't help but smile, thinking that this attention was quite good. At this time, he noticed that Michael Jackson's eyes were very hot when he looked at him, as if they were going to melt him. Li Zetian knew that Michael Jackson wanted to know what song he had written for him, so he said: "Jackson, come and record the song tomorrow, and I will have someone give you the new song!"
"Yeah!!!" Michael Jackson nodded repeatedly.
Li Zetian took a look and felt that nothing happened, so he left Violet Records.
Li Xueyu then negotiated with Philadelphia International Records and paid Michael Jackson's breakup fee.
However, the other party was very unhappy and revealed to the media that day that Violet Records had poached Michael Jackson and satirized Violet Records in newspapers.
The popularity of "Off-The-Wall" made Michael Jackson a very popular singer, and many media and television stations reported the news that night. Fans and industry insiders began to pay attention to Violet Records, and people were full of doubts.
Why did a small record company poach Michael Jackson? Philadelphia International Records is a very powerful record company!
However, reporters quickly dug up useful information.
The next morning, the "superpowerful" paparazzi broke the news that shocked the United States: "The wife of super billionaire Chronos Li is the first signed singer of Violet Records! And Violet Records is Chronos Li's special Record label for his wife!”
As soon as the news came out, it aroused heated discussion across the United States, and the entertainment headlines were undoubtedly occupied by this news.
Violet Records became the focus of everyone's attention, and a large number of reporters blocked the door of the company.
Li Xueyu received Li Zetian's instruction and openly announced to the media reporters that his wife was indeed a signed singer of Violet Records. Everyone was asked to leave and not to affect the normal operation of the company, otherwise the police would be called!
The reporters got accurate answers and left satisfied one by one.
The people who eat melons just watch the excitement, but the record companies are facing a formidable enemy and have trouble sleeping and eating!
The CEO of PolyGram Records couldn't help but sigh: "The extremely fierce tiger Chronos Li has pounced into the record market. From now on, the record market will be in chaos!!!"
PS: There will be another update tonight.
