In the rehearsal room, Liao Liao was wearing headphones, humming something while walking in the Shinto way, when Sun Meimei suddenly pushed the door and came in. ≯

She even kept her footsteps light, but Liao Liao seemed to be practising her song very deeply, but she was actually quite uneasy. As soon as Sun Meimei pushed the door, she immediately looked over.

Seeing this, Sun Meimei smiled and asked her, "How is your practice, baby?"

Liao Liao's shoulders suddenly collapsed exaggeratedly, "He told me to find my own style, and said that my transpositions in several places were not pretty enough, so, ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah..." She swayed , the long, smooth end soon turned into a "shattered head", and then she walked over and hugged Sun Meimei's arm pitifully, "I really want to go out and play for a while, take a vacation. OK?"

Seeing her coming, Sun Meimei quickly raised her arms, "Hey, hey, baby, be careful! Soup, soup!"

Liao Liao turned his head subconsciously, only then did he notice the thermos cup in Sun Meimei's hand, took a breath, and suddenly became excited. The lazy energy just now disappeared, and he turned into a greedy cat. "Oh my god, have you made soup?"

Sun Meimei smiled, walked to the rest area with the thermos cup, put it down, and unscrewed the lid, "Look, the authentic chicken soup, the Sun's ancestral soup method! The ingredients I specially bought in Chinatown are absolutely authentic!"

Not to mention, the chicken soup in the thermos cup has been boiled into pure white, and there is almost no oil. At this time, as soon as the lid is opened, the rich fragrance wafts out, and Liao Liao is about to flow out of the hala. .

"Sister, you are really my sister!"

Liao Liao quickly went over and sat down obediently. He didn't even want to leave the thermos cup. He watched Sun Meimei bring a small bowl to her and took it with chopsticks. He was afraid of the heat. After just taking a sip, the chicken soup was tender and smooth in the mouth, and she immediately showed an expression that was about to melt!

"Delicious!" she muttered.

…………

Five minutes later, Liao Liao sat cross-legged on the sand, holding a small bowl in his hand. I went to have a western meal and thought the steak was pretty good, but I can't eat that **** all the time. The hot dog is too caloric, and I didn't dare to eat it. As a result... ah, my God, the taste of that toast is really ...Let you have a feeling that you have no love for life! Really, you have no love for life!"

Sun Meimei smiled and asked, "Didn't he know how to cook? You can't cook?"

"I'm doing it, I've done it several times! We took a taxi to Chinatown to buy our domestic induction cooker, just one meal, two dishes, and smoked other people's hotel suites... Well, you don't know, anyway When the waiter went to clean the room, when he smelled the smell in the room, his face turned pale with fright, and he thought there was a fire in the room, so we had to eat instant noodles, the smell was still a little small."

Sun Meimei couldn't help laughing imagining what Li Qian looked like when she was cooking and the reaction of the hotel staff.

If Liao Liao feels the deepest feeling after coming to the United States for so many days, it is definitely not the happiness of the American people, or the success of the American music industry, or something else, but definitely the American food is too bad!

Western food, Chinese people eat a few meals every now and then, but it's all good to taste it fresh and eat it every day, it's really unbearable! What's more, even when they were in China, Liao Liao and Li Qian were not people who preferred western food.

Of course, Los Angeles is not without Chinese restaurants, there are even quite a few, but most of them have tastes that have been improved according to the preferences of Americans. Even in Chinatown, they are mostly the tastes of Guangdong and Fujian, which are sweet, greasy and fishy. , let Li Qian, Liao Liao and Xie Mingyuan, the three northerners, have no appetite for what they eat.

Xie Mingyuan is okay, he is used to staying abroad, he has already adapted to eating Western food, and he is very happy, but Li Qian and Liao Liao have not eaten American food for a few days, and their mouths have started to bubble.

Therefore, instead of saying that Li Qian brought Sun Meimei here, she asked her to be Liao Liao's personal assistant or special assistant in Europe and the United States, or to call a manager according to the name of the United States. In Liao Liao's understanding, it is better to say that she came to be a nanny. , is more appropriate.

Sun Meimei's cooking skills are quite good, and for her sudden jumping out of the country, she wants to host Liao Liao's brokerage affairs in Europe and the United States, which is obviously more successful than letting her stay in China and being completely suppressed by Zou Wenhuai in all aspects. So, as soon as Li Qian said, she quickly nodded and agreed, and then, the second day she came to Los Angeles, she went out and rented an apartment that was not too big. On the fourth day, she officially started cooking there.

Don't even think about it, Li Qian and Liao Liao must go over for dinner every day.

…………

Liao Liao killed more than half of a large thermos cup of chicken soup by herself, and suddenly felt that after eating only half a piece of bread at noon, the resentment of "I will starve to death here sooner or later" disappeared. Jumping around a lot.

Sun Meimei simply tidied up, not in a hurry to leave, and chatted with her, "Your boss just ignores you? Just throw it here for you? Why did he go by himself?"

As soon as this was mentioned, Liao Liao sat down on the sand again, looking like a **** who was about to cry, sighed deeply, and said like a resentful woman: "What else can you do, play, play everywhere! Every night I go back, I tell her, I think I have made progress today, so people will snort and show me, where and where did I take this photo today, is it beautiful or not?"

Sun Meimei burst out laughing, "Really? He's just like that... Isn't he supposed to guide you at this time?"

Liao Liao sighed, grabbed the songbook that had just been thrown on the sand, shook it, and said, "I killed myself, I said, I have absolutely no problem with singing English songs, you don't need your guidance, you can rest assured and play! And then... he really went to play by himself!"

Sun Meimei shrugged, with a smile on the corner of her mouth.

I don’t know if it’s because of so many days in the United States. Recently, Liao Liao has a tendency to become a chatterer. After finally catching someone who can chat, he will die and say that his descendants will not get along with each other, and he will even do it. Packing up her things and looking like she was about to leave, she grabbed them and said, "Don't leave in such a hurry, chat with me for a while!"

Sun Meimei shook her head helplessly, put down her things, and said, "It's fine for me to chat with you, but you want to practice songs, baby, time is very tight, I heard from President Xie, it seems that Rolling Stones are planning to release albums under the contract. Arrange for this album to be released on the first day of the show, and to grab a little more market with the soundtrack of that movie, you count, how long do you have to practice songs?"

When Liao Liao heard the words, she let go and sighed again. This time, it could be seen that she did not seem to be pretentious, but had some emotion in her heart, "After I came here, I didn't take it seriously at first, I thought I was traveling, and later I understand what he meant, and I feel that the pressure on my body has suddenly become so great..."

Sun Meimei thought for a while, then smiled and put her arms around her shoulder, and said, "He thinks the opportunity is right, so he wants to push you to the world, think about it, Sister Runqing, Zhou Hao, they all belong to If he wants this opportunity, he can't get it! With this opportunity, the first thing he thinks of is you, right?"

Liao Liao glanced back at her, his eyes gradually brightened a lot, and he said a little proudly: "That's right!"

…………

In mid-March, Li Qian had already submitted all the ten-song songbooks required for the entire album, together with his arrangement, to Rolling Stone Records.

So next, under the green light of Rolling Stone Records, the recording of this album was immediately mentioned.

However, after all, Liao Liao is not the kind who grew up in the atmosphere of Western music. Although she grew up, she also likes to listen to some European and American records and sings in private, but her singing style is still Eastern. .

Soul music and country, she can handle it quite well, but she can't handle rb's style, she can't always find a more mellow way of handling it, especially the transposition, she often handles it well relatively stiff.

However, there is no good solution for this, you can only listen to it a lot, and then sing a lot.

And in this regard, Li Qian's level is not much better than her, to be honest, he can hear it, he can hear how well Liao Liao sings and what are the shortcomings, but let him teach, he is really I feel like I don't have much to teach.

Therefore, everything depends on Liao Liao himself.

But fortunately, at this time, the role of going to the United States to record this album began to manifest.

Here, from the staff of the record company, musicians, musicians, to the hot dog sellers on the street, to the cashiers in the city, all speak English, so after coming here, the English level of Li Qian and Liao Liao, fly up. Especially speaking in English, the better you can speak a thousand miles in a day, the better your sense of language will be. In the end, singing is an art of one voice. If you have the right sense of language, it will be easier to do more with less in many aspects.

And another advantage of staying here is that there are many street performers on the streets of Los Angeles, and many of them can sing rb. Although they have a considerable gap compared with mature singers in all aspects, Li Qian and Liao As soon as the two of Liao walked to the street, listened for a while, and walked over to exchange with each other about the skills of singing rb, they would always be able to gain something more or less.

Especially in rb's most exquisite and dazzling transphony, Liao Liao soon made progress.

Xie Mingyuan is in charge of the band and the connection with Rolling Stone Records, while Li Qian and Sun Meimei are only in charge of Liao Liao. By the end of March, the album "my-heart-i11-go-on" was officially recorded in the Los Angeles studio.

At this time, there is still a month and a half before the release of "Titanic" in mid-May, and the earliest release time of this album is about 80 days. Considering the need to reserve for post-production and factory recording About a month or so, fifty days is really not enough for making a brand new album.

Not to mention, there are also four Chinese songs in this album. After completing the work here, I need to return to China to record such a calculation. The recording time for the six English songs here is even shorter. Only One month!

"my-heart-i11-go-on" is the easiest, Liao Liao is also the most familiar, and the music style is the least difficult for her, so this must be recorded first, and then "i-i11- a1ays-1ove-lure".

These two songs are not a problem at all in front of Liao Liao, who is at his peak.

It only took less than four days for Liao Liao to complete the recording of these two songs, and the musicians from the Rolling Stones who participated in the recording were highly praised.

"Her voice is so powerful!"

"I feel like the roof is about to be lifted!"

"Feminine, strong and powerful, confident love...trust me darling, you're the best soul singer I've ever heard!"

And then, when recording the love song "ou1ve-this-kiss-orever", Li Qian's control and finesse of the sound was almost unanimously praised by musicians from the Rolling Stones.

"I believe that no one can resist such a beautiful love song. Please believe me, this song is as good as the previous two, Qian, your voice processing skills are the best among the singers I have ever seen. One of the people! Liao will be a big hit, and you will be a big hit... in America!" said David Collison, associate director of global music for Rolling Stones, who was in charge of the matter.

There is no doubt that Liao Liao's Zhang International Records, the queen of Oriental Songs, is a tripartite collaboration between Rolling Stones Records, Minghu Culture and the producers of "Titanic". Even for a company like Rolling Stones Records, it is enough to attract considerable attention of attention.

So, in addition to Michael Johnson, General Manager of Rolling Stones China, returning to Los Angeles to participate in the whole process, Rolling Stones also sent their heavyweight to supervise the production, that is, their Deputy Global Music Director, David Collison.

It's just that this gentlemanly deputy director has not been happy for a few days, and his brows gradually wrinkled.

"Oh, baby, your transliteration... forgive me, it's a bit stiff, maybe you can try this..."

Words like this began to come out of his mouth frequently.

However, Liao Liao's musical talent is indeed very strong. If you put aside the music library in his mind and his singing experience in the past twenty years, Li Qian feels that the two himself are incomparable. The last Liao Liao.

Moreover, she is a big girl from the Northeast who is unwilling to admit defeat from the bottom of her heart!

Therefore, rb is very difficult and challenging for her, but the more so, the more exciting she is!

So, once, once, again...

Finally, recording, singing, and singing, her swing began to get better and better, and in many cases, it was not even the norm, and she was even able to amaze David Collison and Michael Johnson.

As a result, the recording of "e" was finally successfully completed after more than ten days of being stuck.

As for the next "th meat gh-the", Liao Liao's feeling is simply out of control. In just three days, this highly dazzling work has been controlled as much as possible under Li Qian's repeated control. The element of dazzling skills has been reduced, but she is still swayed by her interpretation!

After completing this song, the American country that is left at the end, "Inducing're-sti11-the-one", was not a problem at first, but for Liao Liao, who was in a high state at this time, it was even more of a problem. It took 28 days for the trio of Li Qian, Xie Mingyuan and Liao Liao to successfully complete all the tasks of this trip to the United States!

At this time, there is only half a month left before the release of "Titanic" in North America.

So, in addition to keeping Sun Meimei in the United States, Li Qian, Xie Mingyuan and Liao Liao left Los Angeles by plane the next day and returned to China to continue recording the remaining four Chinese songs.

After returning to China, Xie Mingyuan will officially join Minghu Culture Company after a short break, replacing Li Qian as the company's music director. After Xie Mingyuan joined the company, Li Qian will be transferred to the artistic director of Minghu Culture.

Since then, Xie Mingyuan has become the leader of Minghu Culture in music affairs. Li Qian, on the other hand, can be relieved from his previous position and focus on a broader scope including the investment and production of movies and TV series, as well as the production of music records, especially for Minghu, which is just starting out. The image department of the cultural company can be biased.

At this time, it was the end of April. It is said that Li Qian and Liao Liao had disappeared from the country for a full two months, or even disappeared without any news. Normally, it is estimated that the media should be crazy.

But this time, no.

Kind of weird, but it just doesn't.

After "Once You" was released on February 10, it swept across the major lists. On the Dongguan Bookstore sales rankings, it not only exceeded 100,000 copies for three consecutive weeks, but also maintained a fairly healthy number in the following weeks. Up to now, the sales of the album in the eleventh week of listing have come out. This album still has an astonishing sales volume of 38,581 copies in a single week. It can be said that even according to common sense, Li Qian and Liao Liao should still be domestic media. , especially the focus of entertainment media.

but.

Even the new album "At Least You" by Minghu Culture Company's rookie singer Zhuang Meiyue quickly set off an upsurge after it was released on April 13~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Ranked under "Once You", but still won the second place in the sales list of Dongguan Bookstore for two consecutive weeks. Although the gap is not big, but as a newcomer, he has steadily suppressed Li Xinru, the little diva, and for a while, the domestic music circle is once again amazed by Li Qian's songwriting ability, production ability and Minghu Culture's star-making ability!

However, Zhuang Meiyue is not the most popular in the domestic entertainment circle.

Because in mid-April, a Japanese TV series that was introduced by Sony Records China and Sony Corporation of Japan jointly with Huaxia TV and broadcast on a set of programs on Huaxia TV suddenly became popular.

Even, it is said that the ratings of this TV series are already close to "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"!

Just two weeks later, the domestic media has already shouted a slogan, they called it: "Japanese invasion!"
