166, Diamond Records
After the "Lord of the Rings" project was secured, Duca inquired about the copyright situation of "Mission: Impossible".
"Mission: Impossible" was originally a TV series that was broadcast on CBS in 1966 and became very popular.
As early as more than ten years ago, Paramount acquired the rights to adapt "Mission: Impossible" and prepared to adapt it into a TV series, but it has never found the right actors.
After the Tom Cruise hit, the two parties began working on adapting it into a TV series, and Paramount has already approved the project.
Duca doesn't care if "Mission: Impossible" is missing. If the "Lord of the Rings" project can be successfully completed in the next ten years, the market value of LV Pictures will definitely quadruple.
After selecting the script, several new film projects from LV Pictures have entered the preparation period, including "Casino", "Interview with the Vampire", and "Bad Boys".
All departments in the company are busy, but Duka doesn't have much work. He trains every day, goes to the club to practice shooting, and occasionally goes to the bar to sit and chat with everyone.
At the end of July, he attended a celebration party, a diamond record party held by BMG for Shania.
After a year of publicity and promotion, Shania's second album "Big Big World" has sold more than 10 million copies in North America and 16 million copies globally, which is 16 times platinum record.
This is Shania's first diamond album, making her the most famous country music singer in North America.
Among female singers, her fame is only slightly worse than that of Madonna, Whitney Houston, and Janet Jackson, a few established pop musicians, and her album sales are slightly stronger than Mariah Carey's.
When her second album became a diamond album, Shania's third album also hit the shelves. The entire album has a total of fourteen songs, five of which have successively topped the Billboard singles chart. "Let It Go"
"Any Ma Dowo" "You Win My L on Our Love".
The most powerful one is "Let It Go", which stayed at the top of the singles chart for six weeks.
Less than two months after the album was released, sales in North America exceeded 3 million, and it was triple platinum. The results were astonishing. Professional magazines such as Rolling Stone and The Village Voice predicted that this album would be another diamond album.

"When does your tour end?"
At the party, Duca asked, holding a champagne glass.
Shania smiled slightly, "It will probably never end. The sales of the third album are also good, and a second concert tour will be held at the end of the year, each time taking more than half a year."
"It's so hard. The first concert was busy from July last year to June this year, and the second concert will be busy for another year. Do you still have time to rest?"
"Haha, no more. This is also your fault. The songs you wrote are great. Each song is so great and popular. Everyone likes to listen to it. I have an obligation to promote them and sing them to everyone."
Shania curled her lips, exposed her white teeth, and smiled playfully. Paired with the blue dress on her body and the blue diamond necklace on her fair neck, she looked full of fairy spirit.
"Blame me? Okay, I won't care about the next album. You can find the songs by yourself."
Duca shrugged his shoulders and walked forward.
"No, you brought me out. You must be responsible to the end. If you don't care about me, I will quit the music scene."
Shania took his arm and said coquettishly.
Duca shook his head,
"You are a music queen after all. Can you stop being such a scumbag?"
"No, outside I am a singer. In front of you, I am just a little girl who is often bullied by you. You bullied me. If not, who should I blame you for?"
Shania said regardless.
Duka smiled and was about to speak when he saw Madonna walking through the crowd in a gorgeous dress. This woman was gorgeous, gorgeously dressed, and very popular. She was always the center of attention when she walked in a party.
"Why is Madonna here?"
Duka raised his eyebrows.
"Her album promotion rights are signed with BMG Records, and both parties have cooperation."
Shania chuckled.
"Hey, why are you two hiding here?"
Madonna walked straight over and inserted herself directly between the two of them.
"We are standing here, where can we hide?"
Shania smiled.
"Shania, this is your party, you are the protagonist of the party, you should stand in the place with the brightest lights and accept everyone's congratulations, instead of chatting with a scumbag here."
Madonna glanced sideways at someone and said.
Duka shook his head, "You guys chat, I'll look around as I please."
"If you leave when you see me coming, do you have a weak heart or a weak kidney?"
Madonna raised her red lips and asked slightly provocatively.
"Haha, Madonna, how did Duka offend you? Why do you always quarrel with him?"
Shania held Madonna's arm to smooth things over for him.
"Probably because of love and hate, this guy is just a walking hormone. He will seduce me every time we meet, but he doesn't date me. For such a man, it is more appropriate to treat him as an enemy."
Madonna hummed.
"I understand, this is indeed Duka's fault. Who makes him so charming?"
Shania blinked at Duka.
"That's enough, don't be ambiguous in front of me, Shania, I have something serious to do with you."
"What's up?"
"Who is Mr. King? Can you introduce me to him?"
Madonna put her arm around Shania's shoulders and said affectionately.
"What are you looking for him for?"
"Of course I asked him to write songs. The songs he wrote are so great. I would like to ask him to write a few songs for me."
"Is that so?"
Shania glanced at Duka covertly, and Duka shook his head slightly. Although he said last time that he would not add the pseudonym "Mr. King" after the new song, Shania insisted on adding it.
Behind several popular songs such as "Trouble is a friend", "big big world" and "Let It Go", there are two lyricists and composers, Shania and Mr. King, but there are no songs with Mr. King's name on them.
It is not a best-selling classic song, which also makes the composer Mr. King very famous in the music circle.
But until now, no one knows who this Mr. King is. The more mysterious he is, the more curious he is. Every time Shania is interviewed on a TV station, she will be asked by the host, who is Mr. King?
Shania only said that she is a friend, a friend who does not want to enter the entertainment industry.
The media also suspected that Mr. Kim was Duca.
But Duca said he didn't understand music.
The media couldn't find anyone, so they left it alone.
"Madonna, I will tell Mr. King about this, but don't hold out too much hope. He is a very lazy guy who rarely writes songs. If I didn't urge him and force him every time, he would never write.
.”
Shania raised the corners of her lips and smiled.
"Force him?"
Madonna blinked, "Do you often push him? You two are very close?"
"No, we are all very good friends."
Shania smiled slightly.
"Okay, then you can urge him to write a song for me."
"em, okay, let me try."
Shania smiled.
"Shania, come here quickly, it's time to award you a diamond record."
Ms. Nancy Josephson came over and said.
"OK!"
Shania walked to the middle of the hall, and under the gaze of hundreds of people, she received a record studded with diamonds from the hands of the president of BMG and the head of the Record Association.
There was a burst of warm applause.
"Shania is so amazing. She just debuted for more than two years and got a diamond record."
Madonna clapped her hands and said.
"Yes, but you are also very good. There is probably no other female singer who can match your achievements."
Duca smiled.
Madonna's highest-selling song is "The Te", released in 1990. It currently sells more than 23 million copies and has sold more than 30 million copies worldwide. It ranks among the top five singers in the world and the first female singer.
The most powerful thing about this woman is not singing, but relying on her bold style to create waves of hot topics in the currently conservative America.
Her fame has surpassed that of several queens of her generation, and she has become the most representative woman in the world today. She is also a cultural symbol and a pop culture phenomenon, even more influential than the living Michael Jackson.
"Thanks!"
Madonna lifted her skirt in a ladylike manner.
Duka smiled softly and told her another joke about McDonald's being Madonna's younger brother, which immediately earned her an eye roll.
"Duka, Mr. King is you, right?"
Madonna asked with pursed lips.
"What? Of course not. I also hope that I am. If I were Mr. King and could earn an extra ten or twenty million with these songs, that would be great."
Duka said slightly enviously.
"Stop pretending, I asked, Shania first sang in your bar, she was brought out by you, which shows that Mr. King is a member of your circle. But no one in this circle knows that he is
Who, then there is only one truth, you are Mr. King."
Madonna looked closely into his face and said.
"It's reasonable, you can make a female version of Sherlock Holmes."
Duka smiled softly.
"Whatever you say, I'm sure it's you anyway."
Madonna didn't care what others thought, she just held his arm and put it in her tall arms.
Duka curled his lips, this woman is too difficult to deal with, it would be better not to provoke her in the future.
