At this time, Li Xueyu took out a contract and officially signed Michael Jackson to Violet Records.
The moment Li Zetian saw him sign his name, he was overjoyed, this is Michael Jackson, what a terrific singer, and now he has become an artist under his own company. In the future, when the company engages in product endorsements, film cameo appearances or other activities, it is not a matter of a word to invite him
Celebrity effect and fan economy exist in any era.
In the past, it was mainly a literati poet, but now it is mainly a film and television singer.
In the previous life, NetEase’s Weibo had no users at first, and spent a lot of money to promote it. His idol has caused the popularity of Weibo to skyrocket. 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 a woman and all kinds of flirting. No matter how difficult the process is, it is not enough for outsiders. If a large number of celebrities register QQ accounts for promotion and establish a fan group, fans will not have to register QQ accounts one after another, and then join the group, I am afraid it will not take long before QQ will become popular.
To sum up, stars are a very useful resource, and Li Zetian will naturally try to keep them in his hands!
"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 from tomorrow!" Li Zetian laughed.
Michael Jackson nodded and immediately asked, "The company has already written songs for me?"
"I wrote three title songs for you. For the remaining songs, the company will contact well-known composers to write songs for you. Of course, you can also consider writing songs yourself." Li Zetian replied with a smile.
"Mr. Li, I'd love to get the album producer Quincy Jones, who I worked with on my last best-selling album, Off-The-Wall! He's a great producer, and There is a tacit understanding with me!!!" Michael Jackson thought about it and put forward his own requirements.
"No problem," Li Zetian nodded and smiled, Quincy Jones is indeed a very good album producer, and Michael Jackson's most representative album "Thriller" in his music career also collaborated with him. This album has become the number one album in many countries around the world, and derived 10 singles that have topped the charts for 7 consecutive times. "Thriller" was later included in the National Audio Recording Archives of the U.S. Library of Congress as part of the "Cultural, Historical, and Aesthetic Records" of the United States. "Thriller" album sales reached 104 million, unmatched in the world, creating a revenue of 4.1 billion US dollars. As for influence, it is even more indescribable!
Li Zetian turned his head to look at Li Xueyu and asked, "Jing Qiu is recording a song in the studio?"
"Yes, Mr. Li." Li Xueyu nodded in response.
Li Zetian then turned to Michael Jackson and said, "The other signed singer of the company is recording songs in the recording studio. I will take you to get to know them. The company currently only has the two signed singers of you."
"Okay, Mr. Li." Michael Jackson was shocked. He knew that the other signed singer was Li Zetian's wife, and she could not be regarded as an ordinary signed singer.
After a while, everyone came to the recording studio. Yu Jingqiu was singing affectionately with headphones on, but did not notice that Li Zetian and his party walked behind her.
Michael Jackson was very shocked at this time, because he felt that this song is very good, it is 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 both surprised and puzzled.
After Yu Jingqiu finished singing, she took off her headphones and was slightly surprised to see so many people around.
Li Zetian applauded and said, "Yes, you sing very well!"
Yu Jingqiu smiled and said, "The key is that the song is well written."
Li Zetian pointed to Michael Jackson and introduced: "This is Michael Jackson, the second artist signed by Violet Records."
"Hello, Mrs. Li, I'm Michael Jackson, nice to meet you!" Michael Jack took the initiative to step forward and greeted humbly and politely. The opposite was the proprietress. How will I get along 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 it must be extraordinary for a singer appointed by Zetian to come!
"Dear, I think this "I'm -Yours" has almost been recorded, and I can record the second song. Dongfang Yuqin, bring me a pen and paper." Li Zetian looked at Dongfang Yuqin and instructed . In fact, this is Li Zetian deliberately wanting to show his talent in front of Michael Jackson, in order to make Michael Jackson full of confidence, to join the Violet Records.
Soon, Dongfang Yuqin brought paper and a pen. It took Li Zetian a minute or two to write a new song - "My-Heart-Will-Go-On", the theme song for the Titanic movie sung by Canadian singer Celine Dion in 1997! ! !
Needless to say, this song is a classic among classics!
Yu Jingqiu watched the score for a while, and was shocked, because the song was written so well and it was very difficult.
"Try to sing, I'll accompany you with 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 time, everyone was amazed. Although Yu Jingqiu's performance was slightly flawed because he was not familiar with this song, it did not hinder everyone's appreciation of this song.
Li Xueyu exclaimed: "The melody is very lyrical from the initial gentleness to the excitement, to the lingering climax, and to the end of the heart-wrenching tragedy. It is definitely 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 this song more melodious and poignant!"
When everyone heard the words, they couldn't help but imagine the effect of the Irish Tin whistle added to the song, and they were deeply moved.
Michael Jackson was inexplicably excited, "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.
At this moment, Li Zetian thought of one person. Because 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. A little loli. However, Celine Dion made her debut very early. In 1980, 12-year-old Celine Dion entered the music scene. She was born with a good voice and super potential.
Do you want to be a loli
Li Zetian couldn't help but smile, thinking it was a good idea. At this time, he noticed that Michael Jackson looked at him with fiery eyes that seemed to melt him. Li Zetian knew that Michael Jackson wanted to know what song he had written for him, so he said, "Jackson, you come and record the song tomorrow, and I will let someone give you the new song!"
"Yeah!!!" Michael Jackson nodded again and again.
Li Zetian took a look and felt that nothing had happened, so he left Violet Records.
Li Xueyu then negotiated with Philadelphia International Records and paid a break-up fee.
However, the other party was very upset and revealed to the media that day that Violet Records poached Michael Jackson, and tried to satirize Violet Records in the newspaper.
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.
How did a small record company poach Michael Jackson? Philadelphia International Records is a very powerful record company!
However, useful information was soon dug up by reporters.
The next morning, the "magic" paparazzi broke the news that shocked the United States: "The wife of super billionaire Chronos Li is the first singer to sign with Violet Records! And Violet Records is Chronos Li exclusively. A record company for his wife!"
As soon as the news came out, it caused heated discussions in the United States, and the headlines of the entertainment page 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 was instructed by Li Zetian to openly announce to media reporters that his wife is indeed a signed singer of Violet Records, please leave, so as not to affect the normal operation of the company, otherwise call the police!
The reporters got an accurate answer and left one by one satisfied.
The people who eat melons will also watch the excitement, but the record company is like a formidable enemy, and it is difficult to sleep and eat!
The CEO of Polygram Records couldn't help but sigh: "Chronos Li, a fierce tiger, rushed into the record market, and from now on, the record market will be in chaos!!!"
