Chapter 44
The extremely disappointed Chicagoans fled the sad place of Detroit one after another. Old Joe and the others had to continue their promotional trip to Indiana. Naturally, Song Ya wanted to go back with Mira. Taking advantage of the opportunity before parting, he grabbed Tony and the two brothers had a good relationship. heart-to-heart.
His idea is very simple, anyway, now that he can afford a helper, it doesn't make sense that his brother has to work as a follower for others.
Tony also frankly refused. First, he was used to being the boss of the original owner of Song Ya's body, and he didn't want to be directed by his younger brother who changed his temperament after time travel. Second, the interaction between brothers and sisters after they became adults was originally It will not be as frequent as when I was a child, and I usually live my own life. Of course, the main reason is that the "benefits" of Xiao Luo Rui, a singer, are better. He now follows Xiao Luo Rui every day to eat, drink and have fun in nightclubs and bars all over the country. Refers to some girls who have sex with celebrities)', and finally he showed Jin Lao and the AJ shoes under his feet again.
"Me and Little Lowry are brothers too," Tony said.
Song Ya couldn't force it, his main energy had to be on the single, so he could only go with Tony.
Another weekend in Grant Park, Chicago.
The chance for FXXXYOU to make their first public appearance has finally arrived.
"I'm so nervous." Mira hid backstage and kept looking outside. "Why don't they look this way?" she asked.
Thousands of people have gathered in the park square, and the number is still increasing. They are looking for seats in front of the stage, talking, waiting, waiting, the scene is very noisy, and the order is not good. The police and volunteers are working hard maintained.
"This is not a music festival." Song Ya joked with a smile: "You are just an opening singer, don't take yourself too seriously." He tried his best to relieve Mira's emotions.
At affirmative action rallies, speeches by politicians are the main event, and performances are just minor details. No one will pay attention to playing or singing wrong tunes. They are afraid of freezing on stage and not knowing what to do. This kind of thing often happens in the debut of newcomers.
"It's our turn in an hour, come here."
The person in charge of publicity sent by SBK recruited the band together and told him carefully, "We are lined up behind the children's choir. When the children leave, Delay, you can move the drum kit up. The conditions here are simple, and many jobs can only be done. You can rely on yourself, and there are volunteers who will help, but be careful not to let them damage the equipment, and you must check all the wiring before performing. Mira..."
He took Mira to the side of the stage, pointed to a camera below and said: "Only this camera is ours, you try to take care of it when you perform, your lens sense is very good, I believe you, don't screwed up."
"I understand, I understand." Mira nodded like a chicken pecking rice.
The scale of this gathering is not small, and it will inevitably appear in major news media. How many Mira shots can be stuffed in it depends on SBK's public relations ability and that camera. It is still an old problem. , can only go slant, SBK's publicity strategy is very professional.
Delay and the drummer kept taking deep breaths and stretching their limbs, and they even jumped on the spot from time to time. The guitar and bass players buried their heads and silently played the strings and moved their fingers. Although rock musicians always give others the impression that no one is a bird, they are famous Under the tremendous pressure of the people, how could these young people avoid being nervous.
"Don't be nervous!" the publicity director shouted.
Everyone became more nervous.
Song Ya herself is still a baby, and she can't give any help. She can only walk around the five people, pat this on the back, that on the shoulder, and say some words of encouragement.
In the blink of an eye, there was only half an hour left before the performance.
A black soprano was singing on the stage, the noise of the scene gradually subsided, and people's attention was shifted to the stage.
"Come on, put on some makeup." Mrs. Jovovich rushed back from Los Angeles,
They also brought a middle-aged female assistant. She stared at the female assistant to touch up Mira's makeup, and then took out a small bottle of vodka from her bag.
It's not a problem to stimulate the state by drinking. Song Ya has gradually banned Mira from drinking during the rehearsal. Mei Mao has a lot of alcohol, and it's not good to get addicted to drinking.
Mira looked at Song Ya.
"Today is more important..." Song Ya thought for a while and nodded in agreement, "Drink, it's not an example."
Mira took the bottle and took a big gulp.
"She only listens to you now." Mrs. Jovovich said a little bit.
Mila giggled and kissed Song Ya's cheek, leaving a bright red lip mark, "Fix makeup!" Mrs. Jovovich could only go to help the maid assistant.
The children's choir at the front began to perform, a typical black gospel style, which was familiar to the audience below, and many people sang along.
At this time, everyone in the backstage stopped talking and waited silently for the children to line up and leave under the leadership of the teacher after the performance. Delay and the musicians hurriedly picked up various components of the drum kit and got busy on stage.
"Here you go, Milla Jovovich! She brings us...to de Klerk!"
The show host waited for Delay to finish debugging and announced loudly.
"I'm on the stage..." Mira's face became blushing with excitement.
"Well, go." Song Ya patted her fleshy butt.
Mira came on stage, after all, it was not a concert, there was no cheering, and the people below watched quietly.
Considering the audience's conservative tendencies, she dressed more like a female singer who sings country music today, with jeans and a simple and crisp plain shirt, with only a knot at the bottom of the shirt to show off her figure. During the performance, Song Ya also specifically asked to put away the sexy kitten set, just be generous.
"Hello, everyone!" Mira, who was full of alcohol, was not stage-frightened at all, adjusted the microphone stand to a suitable position, and greeted the audience loudly.
"Camera! Camera!" SBK's publicity chief put his hand around his mouth and reminded loudly.
"Hi~"
Mira immediately turned her body at a slight angle, smiling and discharging toward the camera.
The person in charge of publicity breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank God, it's okay."
Song Ya shrugged. After all, Mira has been on the cover of magazines since she was nine years old and entered the modeling circle at eleven. She will never forget this.
Mira turned her head and gave Delay a look. Delay nodded, pressed the keys, and the music started.
"Look inside, Look inside your tiny mind..." Mira's fresh and slightly childish voice sounded.
When she sang Hua Q ~ Hua Q ~, Hua Q very very much, many people in the audience laughed out loud.
In the middle of singing, Song Ya observed that many people raised their hands and began to beat the music, especially the male audience close to the stage, staring at Mira closely, unable to move their eyes away.
"Not bad, not bad, the effect is good." The person in charge of publicity is very satisfied with this effect.
"Really?" Mrs. Jovovich didn't quite understand. He looked at Song Ya, and Song Ya gave him a positive expression.
"Flower Q~"
When Hua Q was sung for the second time, there was an interlude in the audience. A middle-aged white man in front of the stage suddenly yelled strangely: "I want to spend Q too!" The crowd next to him burst into laughter.
Mira on the stage had to take care of the camera while singing, and didn't notice this scene at all.
After singing a song, "Thank you everyone!" She bowed to the audience, who responded with warm cheers and whistles...
Mira exited the stage, and a Baptist pastor who had been to Old Joe's music came on stage. He faced the microphone, shook his head and smiled wryly at the audience below, "Mr. De Klerk won't like this song..."
This line that has already been set has once again attracted people's laughter.
"Desegregation!" A volunteer below raised his arms and shouted, and everyone began to shout slogans to him.
The atmosphere on the scene gradually increased.
"Why haven't I heard this song before?"
"The singer isn't famous, so go to the video store and look for it. There should be her records on sale."
"Well, the records of such young singers are usually placed in inconspicuous places, and we have to search the shelves again."
"What's the girl's name? Why do I think she looks familiar?"
Song Ya in the background heard the whispered conversations of several volunteers next to her, and her heart finally fell.
