Chapter 289 Trip to London

Singing by myself is of course more beneficial than singing for its own singers. BABYFACE has no reason not to agree. The two finalized the matter. Of course, it is a verbal agreement at present. After all, the publisher Sony Columbia Records can only take the lead in this matter. Song Ya can only decide whether to agree or not.

But now he and Motura are in the honeymoon period where they have the same interests, and they are very easy to talk to each other.

"APLUS, change your itinerary for the fifth week and go to London! WhereIsTheLove has already ranked second on the UK gold list, and Deeply Dippy's first place is not so strong. It's your first time to go, and the media over there are very new to you, take advantage of the situation to win The crown bill is not a big problem.”

Motura personally called, "Time is tight, you have to give me an answer immediately, I will let the UK branch prepare to announce the itinerary."

Song Ya knew what the other party wanted to do, "Mr. Motura, don't worry, I don't have any objections to Miss Kelly's single, and you know my relationship with her. I am willing to help her career with you. Just tell me straight up."

"Uh, well..."

Motura was probably stunned on the other end of the phone, "Mimi's EmpireStateOfMindPartII will almost take over the top spot on June 20th, that is, after your WhereIsTheLove won six consecutive championships, and then her I'llBeThere will also start playing List."

"Can the six-week crown keep the 1992 crown?" Song Ya asked.

"Basically no problem. Last year's annual crown of everythingido was won for seven weeks, but your time at the top should be longer." Motura replied.

"Okay, then I'll go to England." Song Ya readily agreed.

"You boy."

Motura smiled, "How do you say that? We have plenty of time to mend things slowly, right?"

"Hehe, I have exactly the same thoughts as you, Mr. Motura."

In early June, Song Ya and his party boarded a flight to London, accompanied by an executive from the British branch and several Sony Columbia Records staff.

"BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) Two will follow up your promotional trip in the UK, and then edit it into a short documentary about your first trip to the UK. We also prepared an exclusive interview with BBC Radio 1 and Q Magazine for you. That’s all, we should temporarily add some activities at that time.”

The other party introduced on the plane: "The British Gold Chart is also called Official Charts (Official Charts), which is co-organized by some public organizations such as the BBC, but its influence in the UK is not as influential as that of the Billboard charts in North America. But your WhereIsTheLove It is very popular with people there. It was ranked second last week, and Deeply Dippy, who ranked first, has insufficient stamina. We and Mr. Motura agreed that this is an opportunity. You go there for the first time, and the freshness is enough. They treat you very curious."

"Why?" Song Ya asked: "There aren't many audiences for hip-hop music over there, right?"

"They themselves have troubles similar to the Los Angeles riots. You know the IRA (Northern Irish Republican Army)?"

"Know it." Song Ya knew that the Northern Ireland issue was a long-standing problem in the UK.

"The violence they have committed in the first half of this year is almost catching up with the whole year of last year. Your song calls for people to understand each other. It's very appetizing in the UK. But you don't talk about Ireland, American Irish The political power is very strong, and some people have sympathy for the IRA." The executive of the UK branch instructed.

"I know that."

Chicago is one of the strongholds of Irish influence. When Kennedy, who is also of Irish origin, ran for the presidency, he went up to the old mayor Daly and went down to the Chicago mafia boss. The current mayor Daly Jr. and the donkey party whip Underwood is of Irish origin, and every year Chicago holds a grand Irish festival,

St. Patrick's Day. Irish people also have a tradition of employment in law enforcement units. For example, Cassity's father, Vic McGee, is also of Irish descent.

"Also, be careful of some language traps when interviewed by the British. They sometimes deliberately lure former American singers to show their rude and uneducated side, such as mispronouncing a few words or something."

"Uh..." Song Ya looked down at the big thick gold chain around her neck, "But I'm a hip-hop singer."

"It's okay to keep your personality and persona, but don't give them a chance to laugh and sarcasm. In the English-speaking world, their media influence is also great. Sony Columbia Records' network there is far less than that of EMI and Polygram."

"I'm fine with that, but..."

Song Ya stretched her head to look at Tony and other attendants who were sitting or not sitting in the cockpit, "M-FXXK give me some energy! Pay attention to your quality!"

The executives of the British branch put their hands on their foreheads and stopped talking.

After the group got off the plane, Sony Columbia Records UK branch held a small welcome event. More than 20 fans came, and a little girl presented flowers to Song Ya.

"Welcome to APLUS." A reporter from BBC Two stepped forward to say hello, and the photographer behind him was already shooting.

"Hello." Song Ya shook hands with him, pointing to Fergie and introducing them one by one.

"There is a camera, don't be petty."

He pulled Fergie close to him and whispered.

Fergie has been throwing tantrums since the last quarrel.

Fergie didn't speak, she took his arm and smiled perfunctorily at the camera.

The group went straight to the location of Sony Columbia Records UK Branch in Sinkenton, "What's your impression of London APLUS?" The reporter began to escort the interview.

"Very good, very historical." Song Yachou said nicely.

I stayed in a nearby hotel, and at night, some fans spontaneously gathered under the building to cheer their names.

"What are they doing?" Song Ya asked.

"Welcome." The branch executive opened the balcony door of the hotel room, "Wave hello to them, and blow a few more kisses."

Song Ya walked to the balcony, the floor was not high, he saw the 20 or so people downstairs he had seen at the airport, and realized that it might be the "Trust" that the branch company found here. According to the design, he began to smile and wave , blowing kisses.

The trolls played very hard, and the drum noise immediately became much louder, accompanied by the screams of the women. There were also some reporters at the scene, and they began to press the shutter frequently.

The branch executive pushed Fergie over again, and the two hugged each other for a while to show off their affection, while the BBC Two cameraman was working with the machine.

"Are you and Fergie in a cold war?" The branch executive saw that something was wrong with Fergie. After the reporters and photographers left, he warned: "This kind of alienated body language cannot be fooled by the audience in front of the TV."

"It's okay, that will be more topical."

Song Ya said indifferently: "Don't people like to dig into the love life of celebrities?"

"Too."

The branch executives no longer struggled, "Tomorrow morning is an exclusive interview with BBC Radio 1, stay vigilant."

After sending the other party away, Fergie threw the pillow on the sofa in silence, and then fell headlong. It seemed that she planned to spend the night on the sofa.

"Hey, what's wrong with you? Didn't I not give the song to Lisa? You heard me call too."

Song Ya went over to tickle her, "I won't be polite if you do this again!"

Fergie ignored him and hid in bed again.

"Is it for Mira and Lisa's album?" Song Ya thought for a while, and he really wanted to put Fergie's album on the agenda. The girl signed a three-year newcomer appointment with herself, and the time did not know I feel that more than a year has passed, and I can't delay it any longer.

Fergie rolled over.

"Okay, okay, I know they are popular in their own way, but you are not bad, you participated in my WhereIsTheLove and ihateuiloveu, and you are as famous as them in terms of exposure."

Still no response.

"Huh..." Song Ya let out a long breath, there was no way, he hadn't had any songs suitable for girls to sing recently, so he patiently followed her again, and lay down opposite her, face to face.

Fergie closed her eyes.

"That's alright, next March, when you publish the album, I'll change the lyrics of ihateuiloveu and make it a girls' solo version for you, as my birthday present to you, how about it?"

The girl's long eyelashes began to flicker.

"Okay, okay, don't pretend, if you do this again, you will definitely regret it if I really lose my temper."

Song Ya started to scare her.

She burst out laughing, put her arms around Song Ya's neck, and buried her head in her arms.

"Hey! Little fairy, if you don't teach me a lesson, you will almost ride on my head!"
