Chapter 418 Super Bowl?
Yu Le picked up his phone and answered the call.
"BOSS! Big deal!"
Old Mike's booming voice came through the receiver.
"Keep your voice down, my son is doing his homework."
Old Mike lowered his voice.
"The NFL Super Bowl organizing committee has just officially sent us an invitation!"
"They hope Liu Yifei will appear at this year's Super Bowl halftime show!"
"The performance song is 'Shake It Off'!"
Yu Le picked up the thermos on the coffee table, unscrewed the lid, and took a sip.
"The Super Bowl?"
Yes! The Super Bowl!
Old Mike was breathing heavily with excitement on the other end of the phone.
"Boss, do you know what the Super Bowl halftime show means? It's the most-watched TV show in the US! Last year's halftime show had over 100 million viewers! 100 million! And it's broadcast worldwide to over 200 countries and regions!"
"This is the stage with the highest exposure in the United States!"
"No Asian face has ever stood on the main stage of the Super Bowl halftime show!"
Yu Le, of course, knew the significance of the Super Bowl. He slowly twisted the lid back on and asked.
"Who is the other guest?"
Old Mike flipped through the documents in his hand.
Beyoncé.
Yu Le raised an eyebrow.
Beyoncé.
One of the world's top pop divas.
"What about time?"
"Early next month. February 6th. Location: Hard Rock Stadium, Miami."
How much performance time did the organizing committee allocate?
"It's about thirteen minutes in total. Beyoncé for five minutes, Sissi for five minutes. There's a three-minute collaboration segment between the two in the middle."
Yu Le remained silent for a few seconds.
Who decided on the music for the collaboration?
"The organizing committee suggested using a song by Beyoncé, but we can discuss the specifics."
Yu Le put the thermos back on the coffee table.
"Reply to them, no problem. For the arrangement in the collaboration phase, I need our music director to be involved. We can't just rely entirely on Beyoncé's team."
"clear!"
"And how much is the performance fee?"
Old Mike paused for a moment.
"BOSS, the Super Bowl halftime show...no pay."
Yu Le blinked.
"Not paying?"
"Yes. It's industry practice. Michael Jackson, Beyoncé, Madonna, they all get free performances. Because the Super Bowl halftime show is the biggest 'GG' in the world. Getting on that stage is like getting 15 minutes of free 'GG' from the whole world."
Yu Le leaned back on the sofa, a slight smile playing on her lips.
"Alright."
"Just consider it money spent to get a spot in the game."
"But this GG slot didn't cost a single penny."
hang up the phone.
Yu Le turned to look at Liu Qianqian, who was munching on potato chips.
"Sissi".
"Um?"
With potato chips stuffed in her mouth, Liu Qianqian mumbled a reply.
Are you going to the Super Bowl halftime show?
Liu Qianqian stopped chewing potato chips.
She slowly turned her head.
"That American Super Bowl?"
"right."
Liu Qianqian placed the bag of potato chips on the coffee table and wiped her fingers with a tissue.
She tilted her head and thought for a moment.
"What should we sing?"
"Shake It Off".
Liu Qianqian nodded.
"OK."
Yu Le looked at her calm and composed expression.
This girl is really different now.
Two years ago, hearing this news would probably have made people jump for joy.
Having seen so many situations, I have a very stable sense of judgment.
"There's something else," Yu Le added.
"The other guest on stage with you is Beyoncé."
Liu Qianqian's eyes finally lit up.
"Beyoncé?"
"What, scared?"
Liu Qianqian stood up and pushed the bag of potato chips in front of Dongdong.
"What's there to be afraid of?"
"She dances hers, I'll dance mine."
"It's still uncertain who will be in control at that point."
Yu Le smiled and shook his head.
Be confident!
On that kind of stage, mindset is a million times more important than technique. The more flustered you are, the more the audience can sense it.
Dongdong raised her head.
"Is my sister going to sing in America?"
"right."
"Can I go? I want to see Superman!"
Yu Le tapped him on the head.
"Write your 'My Northeast Trip' and if you dare write anything bad about me again, you'll get a spanking!"
……
A week later.
Salty Fish Entertainment Headquarters Rehearsal Hall.
Liu Qianqian has been rehearsing for seven consecutive days.
Eight hours a day.
The choreography was arranged by a top-notch choreography team that Yu Le specially invited from Los Angeles. The team consisted of four people, all of whom were Beyoncé and Justin Timberlake's personal choreographers.
The choreography for "Shake It Off" has been redesigned.
It's not a simple MV copy.
Instead, it's a large-scale live version specifically tailored for the Super Bowl stage.
The stage area is three times that of a regular concert.
It requires coordination with fireworks, lighting, a rising platform, and a dance troupe of hundreds of people.
Liu Qianqian was wearing a black training uniform, her hair was tied in a high ponytail, and her forehead was covered in sweat.
She stood in the center of the rehearsal hall, hands on her knees, panting heavily.
"Let's do it one more time."
The choreographer looked at her.
"Are you sure? You've already jumped twelve times."
Liu Qianqian straightened her back.
"In the third chorus, during that side somersault, my center of gravity shifted by half a beat when I landed. Let's do it again."
The choreographer shrugged at his colleagues next to him.
The music started again.
Liu Qianqian closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
The moment I opened my eyes, my entire aura changed.
Sharp eyes, decisive movements.
Every turn, every swing of the arm, was as precise as a metronome.
The choreographer stood beside her, arms crossed, watching her movements.
He nodded slowly.
"PerfeCt".
……
Three more days passed.
Beijing Capital International Airport.
Yu Le, Liu Qianqian, and their accompanying staff boarded a flight to Miami.
In business class.
Liu Qianqian leaned back in her chair, wearing noise-canceling headphones, and closed her eyes to rest. The instrumental track of "Shake It Off" was playing on repeat in her headphones.
Yu Le sat next to him, flipping through the schedule sent by Old Mike.
Upon arrival in Miami, we went to Hard Rock Stadium for a rehearsal.
Beyoncé's team arrived three days early.
It is said that she brought a behind-the-scenes team of more than 60 people, including five stylists.
The scale of the event was astonishing.
Yu Le closed the file and leaned back in his chair.
He turned his head and glanced at Liu Qianqian, who had her eyes closed, next to him.
His lips moved slightly, silently muttering something.
This girl... she's even practicing in her sleep?!
