Chapter 349: Stupid Punk
The low-level performance of all performers lies in the difference between a wooden room and a tent, and Liu Qingshan is no exception. Like those famous bands, Madonna and others, they were arranged in a temporary room behind the stage.
You can actually see the performances on the stage there, but you need to go out and enter the passages on both sides. When Liu Qingshan and his group came to the left passage, Jin Xishan and Avril, who had put on makeup elsewhere, were already waiting there.
Avril shouted as soon as they met: "Taylor and his parents are here too, and they are looking for you everywhere. This trip won't be in vain, right?"
We had agreed to meet at a hotel in Los Angeles, but due to a temporary recording assignment, that meeting was cancelled.
The two parties agreed to communicate here. Avril was obviously worried about her best friend's future and would remind him from time to time even if she had no choice but to do so.
"Didn't Sister Jinghua make an appointment with them? Why are you still waiting for me? Well, don't glare at me like that. Where are they now? I'll go over and take a look right away!"
Since he didn't need to put on makeup, he had half an hour to spare before the performance. Following Avril's directions, he quickly found them.
Wang Jinghua was responsible for communicating specific matters with Taylor's parents, and he was also accompanied by several lawyers who were familiar with Hollywood and people from local brokerage companies introduced by Martin Scorsese.
Originally, Liu Qingshan did not need to show up in person before the two parties reached an agreement, but since Avril urged him, he didn't mind coming to meet him.
Taylor's father, Scott, is a stockbroker, and his mother, Andelia, is a housewife. Neither of them are in the industry, but they have always supported their daughter's music dream.
But Taylor had a rather bitter growth process. It was not caused by her family, but when she began to pursue her music dream, the children around her could not understand it. For her partners at the time, this was a big deal.
It was a very strange thing, and Taylor was laughed at by everyone for it.
At school, during lunch time, when she sat at a certain table, the people at that table would leave immediately, unwilling to eat at the same table with her.
No one talked to her at other times, and she had no friends, so when other girls were playing together, Taylor often traveled to perform on various occasions, or practiced guitar and wrote songs at home.
When Taylor was thirteen years old, that is, after her performance of the national anthem at a competition the year before last was widely reported by the media, people in the school increasingly isolated her. You can imagine how sad Taylor was at that time. After all, she was just a child.
It wasn't until last year that her family moved to Nashville, which is the capital of country music, so her peers understood and liked her. She also met Avril, a good friend, and lived a normal high school life in school.
It is precisely because their only child has experienced hardship that her parents will unconditionally support her to pursue a career in music. At this time, after seeing their daughter's joy after seeing Liu Qingshan, the couple became more convinced.
This time I made the right choice, and the heartfelt smile on my daughter's face said it all.
After greeting the couple, Liu Qingshan smiled and said: "Please help me, my request is very simple. I must not only ensure the safety of Taylor's future song copyrights, but also obtain a guaranteed development channel! How to discuss the details is up to you.
However, we must first consider the true feelings of Uncle Swift’s family and only then can we discuss future contract issues in depth based on their opinions!”

One of the lawyers among the group spoke first: "Mr. Liu is guarding Taylor. I believe no one will dare to interfere or do anything. Moreover, Mr. Martin also told us that Taylor should be treated as his own daughter."
treat!"
Liu Qingshan nodded and looked at Wang Jinghua: "Sister Jinghua, Taylor's agent can be signed to your name, but her agent in the country must be chosen well. At least he must be completely loyal to your leadership and must be in the entertainment industry.
If the person has a certain reputation in the industry, the requirements for independently opening up publicity and performance channels can be appropriately reduced, but the credibility of this person must be guaranteed!"
Wang Jinghua smiled and said: "We are discussing this issue again, and there are already several candidates. No, his name is Kirk, he is one of the candidates, and he is also Mr. Martin's distant nephew!"
The man named Kirk quickly stood up and shook hands with Liu Qingshan: "My uncle and aunt both said that they have a very good relationship with my husband, so it is more suitable for me to take care of Taylor than others, because not only can I be considered a member of the family, but also
I have been working in the brokerage industry for many years and have very professional business capabilities. Besides, I am also Mr. Liu’s most loyal fan. Anyone may betray Mr. Liu but I will not. This is why I think I am more qualified!
"
In fact, Liu Qingshan didn't need to know too much to know that the reason for their hesitation was probably because Kirk was a bit young, looking like he was at least twenty-seven or eight years old.
But he did not directly participate in the opinions, but planned to leave the final decision in Wang Jinghua's hands. After all, he had entrusted her to handle the matter, and Taylor's management contract was also under her name.
However, he also revealed some recognition of Kirk: "Kirk, you are actually very good. Although you are not very mature yet, I estimate that you will be very capable in business, otherwise Martin will not take it as an example."
Introduce me! By the way, I wonder if you are married?"
"Married and with two children!"
"Well, I won't make any decisions today. All the decisions are in Sister Jinghua's hands. Once the results are known, I'll treat everyone to dinner after the performance!"
Liu Qingshan called out the Taylor family of three again and made a special explanation before turning and leaving.
Taylor's father was originally a fan of his and barely spoke to Liu Qingshan during the short period of contact with him, but others could tell that his voice was trembling during that period.
Maybe it's because of her love for the house and the girl. Taylor's mother Andelia was also very excited after seeing Liu Qingshan. She also knew that her daughter would not be bullied in the future with this person taking care of her.
At ten o'clock sharp, the performance officially begins.
The performance of the East Troupe is ranked third, around 10:25. Except for the limited bands and singers, each performer only has one chance. Of course, they will have other opportunities to perform on stage yesterday and tomorrow.
But in this morning's schedule, among the well-known groups and individuals, only Liu Qingshan has the opportunity to perform more than two times.
People like Madonna, Britney Spears and others are scheduled for tomorrow, which is the last day of the music festival. The finale performance will be the famous Radiohead band.
Other bands were also spread out this afternoon and evening. As for Bristol Band, New Order, Nine Inch Nails, and Coldplay, they were all concentrated until the last day.
Among the top groups, only Daft Punk, an electronic music group from France, is scheduled to play electronic music tonight.

The live effect can only be shown to its peak at night. Liu Qingshan actually has some thoughts about this group, but he is very sorry that he can't see them perform.
However, after the performance officially started, Bengault and DeHomenkres in the lounge took the initiative to find him.
These two people are the main members and founders of Daft Punk. They are both a little over thirty years old. Both of them wear helmets on their faces. This is their signature look. If you don't show your true colors, you are Daft Punk.
In addition to the first classic work, the most distinctive feature.
"I wonder how much Mr. Liu knows about electronic music?" This was the first thing Bengot said when he came over.
"Electronic music is music produced using electronic instruments and electronic music technology, and musicians who create or perform this type of music are called electronic musicians." Liu Qingshan looked at the two of them, secretly happy in his heart, but did not express it on his lips.
Come out, "You two should be electronic musicians!"
Bengault's personality is obviously unique. Regarding Liu Qingshan's deliberate praise, he just smiled casually: "These are written explanations. I asked this question because I heard Mr.'s song "The Unknown", in which
There are a lot of electronic music concepts!”
"Oh? Have you heard of Chinese songs?" Liu Qingshan was really surprised at this time.
"There's nothing surprising!" Even through the mask, a deep smile could be heard in Bengault's tone, "After being exposed to Mr.'s first song, it was not just me, but probably countless people.
Collect all the information about you on the Internet, and the same goes for your music works!"
At this time, Dehomme Chris immediately followed up: "Mr. Liu's music has a very distinct and vague shadow of the avant-garde, and many of the arrangements have more unique design details that have never appeared before. In addition, Mr. Liu uses a lot of electric organs.
, in addition to electric guitars and other plug-in instruments, special emphasis is placed on the rhythm changes of electric bass and drum sets. The auditory impact of this will make people feel more jumping and dancing than other music! Of course, Mr.
In addition to integrating many genres, the style also ignites the fuse of future music trends. This is the main reason why Bengault and I can’t wait to have some music exchanges with you!”
Liu Qingshan was not dazzled by the high-profile praise of the two musical geniuses, because he knew that he did not have real materials, and the music works that were infinitely promoted by the other party were clearly plagiarized.
He thought for a while and smiled: "Actually, the real way of music communication is through actual creative cooperation, rather than word of mouth like in music classes. Many things in it are not easy to express in words!"
Bangault lightly clapped his hands a few times, "Mr. Liu is so right! Music creation is based on inspiration that bursts out by chance. Only the foundation of music theory is not enough. Some deeper understandings cannot be formed at all.
Exact words, otherwise it is just a mathematical calculation formula. By applying it, everyone can become a musician!"
"So, I happen to have a work about electronic music that I haven't had time to perfect yet. The main reason is that my current research on electronic music is not deep enough. I hope you two can take the time to help me complete the final arrangement part, some electronic music.
You know a lot more about music skills than I do!"
Before Liu Qingshan finished speaking, the auras of the two people became a little unstable. However, because their expressions were hidden behind masks, they did not appear very eye-catching, but they could not be hidden from his detection power.
