My wife is in my arms

Chapter 1275 Special Voices from Abroad II

Zhang You, who was just about to call Xiao Zishan home to practice piano, paused.

He looked at Wang Yu with a surprised expression.

As an agent in the entertainment industry, one cannot speak without reason. In other words... after thinking for a moment, Zhang You directly asked, "Do you know something?!"

"It's just my personal judgment."

Wang Yu said earnestly, "After the recording rights for 'Special Voice' were bought by foreign companies, the first season had extremely high ratings, and many popular singers participated in the second season. Under these circumstances, in order to maximize profits... simply put, considering the broadcasting rights, the production team will inevitably invite singers from other countries to participate."

"All right!"

Zhang You nodded, but didn't pursue the matter any further.

If the goal is truly to sell broadcasting rights more effectively, having singers from other countries participate is indeed a viable option. Among so many singers from various countries, it's fair to say that... the surrounding countries certainly have their own top singers.

For example, Lee Jung, who is said to be a top female singer in Seoul, and Hama Ayumi, a queen-level singer from Ilseong.

There are a few others, but these singers are only proficient in their own country's language, unlike him, whose many English songs sell very well on overseas music platforms.

Let's not even talk about "Please Cha Cha". The copyright of this song was bought by the foreign Cha Cha Association, and Katy Perry covered it, which directly brought this female singer, who was somewhat declining in popularity, back to the top.

The English version of "Goodbye Kiss" has been purchased more than 20 million times on overseas music platforms, so if we really wanted to invite a singer from another country to compete with some top international singers, he would be the first person we would consider.

Even though he hasn't accepted any music variety show offers since the end of the second season of "Special Voice," his appeal and influence haven't declined at all. Moreover, he has successfully transitioned into an investor and holds a high position in the entertainment industry. If he were to be invited, other countries would be secondary.

For their own country, the broadcasting rights would inevitably fetch an astronomical price.

Without him... even if the foreign "Special Voices" is great, it's still English songs, and some of them have local characteristics, so not many people will watch it. But with him... even though many people still can't understand English songs.

Just like when Avril Lavigne, the sweetheart of the world, was invited to perform her signature song in China, but the audience's reaction was lukewarm and didn't show the influence of a top international female singer, it would be different if she participated in the recording of a foreign "Special Voice" program. This would generate a sense of "national pride".

Many people will watch that.

Because fans also want to see what kind of achievements their country's superstar can make, just in case... their sense of pride will be overwhelming.

Many things are just average without these additives, but once they are added, the effect is truly different.

Who knows, Hancheng and Richeng might also broadcast it.

"If I really invited you, would you go!?"

Wang Yu couldn't help but ask.

"That's still your judgment. We'll have to wait for them to extend an invitation before we can discuss the specifics."

Zhang You replied casually.

In the past, no matter how high the appearance fee was, Zhang You wouldn't have participated; he'd rather spend that time fishing! But now... Zhang You himself is unsure.

Anyway, he wasn't quite sure, mainly because he had another female singer and two children abroad, so after hearing what Wang Yu said, Zhang You was really conflicted.

However, just as he said, there is no news at the moment, so there is not much point in talking about it. If he really wants to make a choice, he first needs to get an invitation from the overseas "Special Voice" program team, and then see what the specific content is like and how much the appearance fee is before he can consider it.

After Zhang You called Xiao Zishan away, Wang Yu saw that Lanlan wanted to go too, so she let her go. Zhang You wasn't going to teach, so she couldn't force her, but since the child wanted to listen to her sister Zishan play the piano, she had no reason to refuse. It wasn't too far.

Moreover, when Zhang You comes to pick up his little apprentice Li Ran in an hour or two, he will definitely bring Lanlan back with him. Compared to parents who are usually a little worried when their own children go to other people's houses to play, Wang Yu doesn't have too many worries in this regard.

Xiao Zishan is not the domineering type of child.

Zhang Yougeng wasn't the kind of parent who would immediately defend one child over the other without considering the reason, even if there was a minor conflict between the two. He had a lot of methods for educating his children and was very patient. Just like when he went fishing, he could sit by the lake all day even if he didn't catch a single fish. Anyway, this guy was a great singer and had a nice butt.

If you really have hemorrhoids, you definitely won't be able to sit still.

"Will the overseas 'Special Voices' really extend an invitation to my older brother!?"

Xu Qingya couldn't help but ask.

"If this show wants to sell broadcasting rights, it's inevitable. It's possible that not only your brother, but also top singers from Seoul and Japan will be included in the list. I can't guarantee for those two countries, but your brother should be included without a doubt. He not only sings English songs well, but he's also a strong songwriter in English."

Wang Yu said with a confident expression.

"Do you really think my older brother can compare to those top international singers?!"

Xu Qingya couldn't help but worry.

"I don't know about that. After all, fans from any country tend to prefer their own country's singers. But one thing is certain: if your brother can outshine singers from other countries on 'Special Voice' abroad, then he will be an undisputed world superstar."

As she spoke, Wang Yu looked at Xu Qingya with a smile and said, "Then, you'll be the second brother of a world-famous superstar. You can even bang on the table with our company's boss!"

"Ha ha"

Xu Qingya couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Then, she pointed to Li Ran, who was intently playing the violin, and said, "If that's really the case, this girl is extraordinary. If she debuts with this title, the world's media will be scrambling to report on her, and so will Zhong Xia."

The two were just joking.

After all, it's still uncertain. Even if her older brother really participates, let alone winning first place, getting into the top three would be extremely difficult.

Xu Qingya never doubted her older brother's abilities, but that was his territory. If he went there, he would be a foreigner, and it was easy to imagine how difficult it would be for him to overpower a local singer.

There's an old saying, isn't there?

"Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake."

Her older brother went abroad, and that's pretty much the situation.

Here, her older brother is a superstar, but abroad... even though she gained a certain fan base by winning a Grammy Award for her English single, her influence and appeal are still limited.

Unless her older brother displays a performance that amazes everyone every time he appears, it's almost impossible.

As she smiled, Xu Qingya subconsciously frowned slightly.

My resolve has also weakened.
