Chapter 48: Touching Porcelain

SBK's marketing of the song "Second-hand Store" is actually a bit half-hearted. After the high-intensity publicity led to a hit in the first week, they did not take advantage of the victory to chase the charts, but concentrated on sales. As Cooper said, the Billboard Singles Chart is not a list that only looks at sales. The promotion has not been picked up in one breath. Even if the second-hand store is currently steadily advancing towards two million sales, the rankings have still begun to drop significantly.

Daniel asked Little Lowry to figure out a way to win the news page by himself, maybe it was out of consideration of saving publicity costs.

This is also human nature. After all, SBK is only the publisher, and Little Lowry is not a signed singer of his family. In stark contrast, SBK's own daughter Wilson sisters and the Phillips combination, their single "hold on" Several months after entering the list, it still ranks fourth, with abundant publicity resources.

"You're a genius, APLUS, but both of your songs are a bit niche."

Daniel made a suggestion, "In the future, you have to remember this word: 'LOVE'! What rock, country, hip-hop or even adult lyric... The type and style of music are not important in my eyes, what is important is the mainstream of the market now. Likes! What do people like? Hmm? Like what? I love you, you love me, I love you, why don't you love me...it's that simple!"

"Like her of Love?" Song Ya pouted towards Mariah Carey's photo.

"That's right, this single of hers has climbed to No. 31. Motura will make good use of her gimmick of singing dolphin sounds in the NBA Finals yesterday, and the ranking will jump up." For Motura and Mariah Carey, Daniel's tone became very impatient, obviously feeling the pressure.

The two chatted with Mira for a while, and Daniel still reserved his opinion, "Mira's image is good, but her vocal range and skills are not high, and she can't concentrate on her recording career..."

"Madonna and Whitney Houston are both film and music amphibious..."

Song Ya's statement drew Daniel's sneer.

Without the economic people buzzing like flies, without Robert or even Lisa, under SBK's careful handling, Song Yazi spent a good time in New York, and after recording the single, he accompanied Mira to shoot again The cover of the single and the MV, the two of them are the same as in Chicago, staying together and flying together, so sweet.

However, the day of parting has come.

"This thing can't protect your throat, right?"

In the hotel room, Mira knelt obediently in front of Song Ya, gulped and swallowed some liquid and asked.

Song Ya pinched her flushed cheeks and couldn't help laughing.

"I hate it!" Mira jumped up angrily and fought with him, "I have been cheated by you for so long!"

Song Ya pressed her hands and feet, and hugged her in her arms, "You will be very hard next, can you bear it?"

"It's just for publicity. I've been used to flying around since I was a child." Mira said softly.

"That's not what I said." Song Ya smirked and put her into a pose she liked.

"You! Hate!"

The next day, Mira and the band set off to leave New York to officially start the promotional trip. Al was still accompanying him as an assistant. The music industry was too chaotic, and there had to be someone she could trust to keep an eye on her. 'Axis' character, should be able to complete the task well.

But Eric made a different choice. This time he came to New York to record, he could only help the tuner of SBK, and he also complained about Song Ya's strict prohibition of attracting bees and butterflies in New York. Pulling this kind of female singer to run publicity is far worse than going to various nightclubs in Quanmi with Old Joe and Little Lowry. He regretted it.

After a good get-together, Song Ya threw him a small amount of cash, ended the cooperation, and returned to Chicago alone.

In the following month, news from Little Lowry's side spread to Song Ya's ears from time to time. His relationship with the daughter of the famous Detroit music circle reached the moment when the last remaining value was squeezed out.

The two played the breakup scene ups and downs, quarreled in front of the paparazzi cameras, each revealed to the media that the other party had various shortcomings that were not shortcomings, and when the heat cooled down, they suddenly issued a formal breakup statement, and then expressed sympathy and regret in the interview, and broke up In the end, we are still good friends, Yunyun...

These actions of theirs saved Little Lowry's billboard rankings, and also gave the famous daughter a good boost in her new album.

Song Yacai didn't bother to care about these nonsense, he began to concentrate on preparing for the next semester's homework, and under the leadership of Hayden, he ran between various private schools. The choice is two-way. He chooses a school. A good school also needs to respect students and even students Parents are interviewed.

Based on his current resume, almost no school would reject such a student. He is a 15-year-old BMI member. He has already released two songs, the first of which is a platinum record with over one million sales. He is also an active participant in affirmative action activities. Or, with these, many schools even turn to solicit tuition fees.

The problem lies in Emily. According to her grades in primary school, it is a bit difficult to pass the examination of Song Yazhong's middle school by relying solely on the interview, but for these private schools, there is nothing that cannot be done with money, so it is easy to solve.

Song Ya finally chose a private middle school in the northwest of Chicago. The black and white ratio in it met his requirements. In fact, the law and order in the west of the city is not enough, but the school is closer to the north of the city, and the surrounding environment is very good and acceptable.

Then he was busy moving again.

It is also a two-way choice. In his favorite house, the Caucasian old man who rented the house clearly told him a few days later that the residents in the nearby community voted to reject his family’s move-in. The old man did not give a reason, but he looked at the skin color of the nearby residents. Song Ya can also guess the reason inside, but it's just because of political correctness, no one will announce the motive of rejection.

In the end, he chose a unit in a high-rise apartment near the school, which was similar to Little Lowry's home, with access control and building administrators. The surrounding environment and building facilities were better than Little Lowry's home, and the area was smaller than Little Lowry's was much bigger.

But Connie rejected Song Ya's offer to help her pay for her community college tuition, and she didn't plan to move in with everyone.

"You've all moved out and I happen to be starting a family in this house."

She brought home her well-hidden boyfriend, a muscular but stodgy plumber named Tyron. "We're going to be happy, and I'm pregnant," she said.

"You bitch..." Aunt Susie, who was gnashing her teeth, was about to speak.

"Are you really a plumber?" Tony asked Tyron, who had rushed back from a family meeting.

"Yes." Tai Lun nervously rubbed the peaked cap in his hand, "Look, my tool cart is outside."

Everyone went outside to look at Tyron's minivan, which was advertised in tacky colors for plumbing repairs.

"The plumber is nice..." Tony looked at Aunt Susie.

Aunt Susie admitted it with her lips curled up. The income of plumbers in the United States is considered very good among blue-collar workers. In the eyes of residents in the poor areas of Nancheng, it is definitely a good job. Song Ya has seen many plumbers in the house of "Muffler" Videotape for the main character.

"Okay, I don't care anymore, I'll do as you please, you bitch..."

Aunt Susie finally nodded, "Yeah!" Connie hugged Talon happily.

At the end of July, Mira also came to Chicago and lived in Song Ya's room. She was going to participate in the Chicago Music Festival here in early August.

Due to the nature of the song, many publicity channels were blocked, and SBK's promotion efforts were not strong. As a result, the single sales of "To De Klerk" were very mediocre, with only about 100,000 copies sold in a month.

But things finally ushered in a turning point.

Reunited after a long absence, the two children who were lingering to death suddenly received a call from Daniel himself. He shouted very excitedly on the phone: "It's done! The South African government has protested!"

Daniel has come up with a rather shameless publicity strategy for this song of scolding the white South African president, the key of which is to do everything possible to get the attention of South Africans. A month later, the South Africans finally noticed the song. As soon as they got an informal protest from the other party, "Pengci" was a big success, and Daniel's promotional chariot could be turned on at full speed.

'World's Most Unforgettable White Woman Speaks Out for Black South Africans! '

‘Why did Milla Jovovich’s new sheet spark protests from the South African government? '

‘Protesting apartheid, Mira faced pressure and issued a statement that he would not back down easily. '

‘Mila’s new single song was created by a fifteen-year-old genius black boy! The popular second-hand store came from him. '

‘Solid with Mandela! White American girls are not afraid of the current government in South Africa. '

In this way, in a short period of time, a large amount of public relations news went around, scratching the itch of the entire American society. The discussion on Mira and this new song exploded, causing De Klerk to drop to No. 10 on the Billboard in one fell swoop. Seven, and the sales rankings are both bullish.

Daniel and Song Ya joined forces for the second time and still succeeded.

Song Ya's second apocalypse work will still be a platinum record.
