Chapter 291 Watching the Exhibition

"It turned out to be a female rap..."

Song Ya was shocked by the new apocalypse song. Although this London Bridge (London Bridge) is the first hip-hop song that can't be salivated anymore, and the lyrics metaphor is quite obscene, but the melody is extremely catchy, and there are basically no female singers involved. Rap solo (solo), 'Future' Fergie's skills are already very deep.

TLC under BABYFACE cannot be regarded as a female rap group, only "Left Eye" Lisa is responsible for the hip-hop part of the song, and their main style is rhythm and blues. Although LondonBridge has a lot of other elements, there is no doubt that it is dominated by popular rap style.

He quickly figured out a few things.

Whether it's for friendship, affection, or business, this song must still be handed over to Fergie, and she is the most suitable person to sing this song.

In another world line, Fergie will definitely be popular in the future, so I have to firmly hold her in my hands, and I have to start planning how to get her next contract with the least cost. So until the next contract is settled, this song should not be released for the time being. Once it is released, a shrewd girl like Fergie will definitely be able to detect that she will become popular.

Fergie's first album now has two strong singles, ihateuiloveu female solo version and LondonBridge. The style is already very fragmented. Other songs can no longer exceed the style of these two songs, so as not to repeat the mistakes of her first album.

After this song comes out, I am afraid that after the genre pioneer of talk-sing-talk and Chicago rap, the name of master of fusion hip-hop music may not be able to get away. In addition to the already existing rhythm and blues song YoungDumb of unknown style, my own time travel The author APLUS will definitely have a place in the historical evaluation of the American music scene in the future.

The more I thought about it, the happier I was, when suddenly the order on the dance floor outside was out of control, and there seemed to be a riot.

"Hey! Stop Tony!"

Song Ya looked up and saw her followers grabbed a strange white man under the leadership of Tony. Tony had raised his fist, and hurriedly shouted at him, "What happened?"

"He dared to touch your chick," Tony said.

Song Ya saw a clear slap mark on the man's face, and turned his gaze to Fergie. It should be that Fergie's unrestrained behavior just now gave the other party the illusion that she was a girl who could get started casually.

Fergie's eye make-up was worn out from tears, and there were still two tear marks on her face. She raised her leg and stepped hard on the man's thigh with the pointed heel of her shoe.

"Miss, please calm down." The security personnel of the venue rushed over to separate the two sides, "Please don't break the rules here."

Taraji poked his waist in the back, indicating that the BBC reporter was still nearby. Song Ya saw that the guy who was beaten was cowardly and didn't speak, and he didn't say anything. Indeed, there are a few big and three rough, gangster-like black people on his side. There is no chance of winning if you choose to fight hard.

"Don't fight, let's go, Taraji, pay the bill."

He held Fergie under his arm and led the way outside.

"Look more eye-eyed boy." Tony said, and a group of people rushed out, and when they reached the door, the salon manager chased them out.

"Mr. APLUS, you have been marked as an unwelcome guest by this salon." The other party said.

"FXXK, it's up to you." Song Ya didn't pick him up, and he wouldn't come anyway.

"Do you have surveillance here? I want to keep a backup, Mr. APLUS doesn't want to be taken out of context by the media in the future." Old Mike said to the manager without leaving in a hurry.

The manager nodded, went back and took a video tape, and handed it to Old Mike.

"APLUS, I don't need to write this paragraph." The BBC reporter said with a smile.

"It's okay, if you don't write, I guess the news will spread tomorrow." Song Ya glanced at the paparazzi on the street,

It's better to just sell it, it's not a big deal for hip-hop singers to fight in a bar or something.

Anyway, that’s the end of the trip to the UK. In the fifth week, WhereIsTheLove completely followed Motura’s design and won the first place in the UK Gold Singles Chart. I heard that it also sold well in Germany, Australia and other places. The results are quite impressive. Song Ya is satisfied.

The group returned to Chicago. In the fifth week, WhereIsTheLove was still No. 1 on the Billboard double list, but it was already in jeopardy. The so-called, due to the delay effect, the crown will be crowned for another week next week, just in time to hand over the top spot to Mariah Carey.

KrisKross was in a bit of a misery. Both singles and albums were suppressed by Song Ya. No matter how many weeks Song Ya won the first place, the two children took the second place for as many weeks. The label is under the pressure of Motura, otherwise, if it is an artist under another major record company, I am afraid that after finding out that something is wrong, it will start to make small moves against Song Ya behind the scenes.

"Rap plus pop, love songs, Fergie's first album is mainly limited to the following range."

In the conference room of A+ Records, Song Ya called Fergie to have a meeting with Dion Wilson, Delay and others.

"Rap? Fergie alone?"

Dion Wilson confirms with astonishment: "There are no girls in this field yet."

"Our company happens to be the first one." Song Ya will not reveal the London Bridge to anyone for the time being, "You can choose from the company's songwriting reserve."

"Well, it's a gimmick." Dion Wilson thought for a while and nodded in agreement.

"Jimmy, you also need to help Fergie collect songs. Ask more about her friends in the circle, relationships, etc. Anyway, do your manager's job well."

Since there were no objections, Song Ya announced the adjournment of the meeting.

"Honey, thank you." After being frightened once in London, Fergie also knew that the tactic of gaining benefits from Song Ya by losing her temper was no longer effective, and now she began to change her mind, "I know you treat me It's the best." She kept killing Song Ya's will with tenderness.

"There's still an hour to go."

Taraji came in to remind him that he would go to the Chicago Stadium to cheer for his "good brother" Jordan, and by the way, it was exposed that the Chicago Bulls broke into the NBA Finals again and were killing the Portland Trail Blazers.

"Well." Song Ya looked at the two of them and asked Taraji to close the door. "There is still some time. Do you remember the two main towers of Tower Bridge in London?"

"Remember, what?" Fergie asked.

"We're like this... Taraji, come here, Fergie, come here..."

After watching the NBA, he went to the International Summer Consumer Electronics Show held in Chicago the next day to stand for innovative technology.

"The PCs of my record company also use the sound card of Creative Company, which is very easy to use."

Song Ya smiled and said to the reporters who came to the exhibition that Tony and others spread out protection around the booth, but it didn't seem necessary. The IT men who came here were not very enthusiastic about him.

"Yes, I really like the effect of this sound card."

"Haha, of course not. Is civilian equipment used in the record production? Which company? I won't advertise for them, and they didn't pay me."

Twenty minutes passed quickly, and the people from the innovative company were very satisfied with the effect.

"Thank you APLUS, our cooperation is very successful." Mr. Hu, one of the bosses, shook hands with him happily.

"Of course, I will continue to support you." Innovative Technology was listed on Nasdaq in April, and Song Ya bought 1 million dollars in stock, basically pouring in the advertising fees given to him twice by the other party. I have found it.

"It seems that there are many investment opportunities here..." He said to Mr. Hu, "It seems that there are many small companies."

"Yes, the prospect of the technology industry is very good, and there are many start-up companies." Mr. Hu said with a smile, "How about I show you around?"

"Can."

Under his leadership, Song Ya strolled around the Electronics Show with relish. Naturally, he would not go to the booths of large companies such as Apple that had no investment potential. He was looking for small companies that were not listed. While watching, he tried to compare the MV of Apocalypse in his mind. Screening, intending to replicate the miracle of 'wisdom eye' investing in DTS.

"The kind of visual effects for making movies?" Mr. Hu is an expert. After hearing the demand, he took him to the booth of SGI company with ease. "Many big Hollywood film companies use their products, a server It will sell for hundreds of thousands of knives."

"Really?" Song Ya watched the demo for a while with the help of the other party's staff. Indeed, she could see the shadow of many Hollywood blockbusters.

However, the other party was a listed company with a high self-esteem, and he was not very enthusiastic about himself as a hip-hop singer. He stopped for a while, then walked away.

"C-CUBE?" Song Ya stopped in front of a shabby booth as big as a small hot dog stand. It wasn't that there was something found in the Tianqi MV, but the stage name of this company and IeCube (IeCube). so similar.

"Interested?" Mr. Hu smiled, "The boss of this company is also Chinese, Sun Yansheng, Yansheng! Here!"

Unexpectedly, the boss of the company was looking at the booth in person, "Hello, Mr. Sun." Song Ya shook hands with the other party, of course in Chinese.

"Hello."

The other party's Chinese is considered very good among Chinese Americans, and there is no obstacle to the communication between the two, but he doesn't seem to recognize the famous APLUS, so it is worth thinking that he is Mr. Hu's friend.

"Is it an MPEG chip? What is it for?" Song Ya asked about his product.

"Image decompression means that the compressed data stored in the CD can be decoded into audio and images that can be watched..." The other party asked his subordinates to start showing.

"This thing is amazing!" Song Ya didn't expect that CDs could be used not only to listen to songs, but also to watch movies! However, the demonstration effect of the other party was not very good, and the sound and picture quality from the monitor were very rough.

"Yes, due to the limitation of the amount of data stored on the disc, the data needs to be compressed in advance, the quality of the sound and image will lose part, and another part will be lost when decoding..." The other party sincerely said the shortcomings of their own products place.

"Do you accept investment? Angel investment?" Song Ya was moved.

"This..." The other party was a little embarrassed.

"Hahaha, Mr. Sun's wealth no longer needs that kind of investment." Mr. Hu laughed, "He is the founder of many technology companies."

"Well……"

Song Ya's face turned black, so why are you dressed like an ordinary engineer when you are rich and come to the front line in person? Embarrass me, really! "Then is there any chance for us to cooperate? I'm very interested in this technology."

"Of course, we are looking for partners who can help our chips be used in consumer electronics." Sun Yansheng said.

"The manufacturer that plays this format? That's easy to find, aren't big companies like Sony and Panasonic interested?" Song Ya asked.

The other party was embarrassed again.

"Big companies have their own industry standards that they want to implement, and they don't want people to come in and get a share of the action." Mr. Hu made another relief.

"And the film source is a big problem." Sun Yansheng added.

"I see." Just like the record industry, companies like Sony control the upstream record resources. It's not like no other company has tried to build another music player, but there are no songs to listen to. What's the use of just making a machine?

"Anyway, if you have a chance to cooperate, please remember me." The two parties left a phone call and said goodbye to each other.

"In terms of graphics processing..."

Mr. Hu brought it to the booth of LSILogi. In short, there are many Asians in the consumer electronics industry, especially notebooks, Xinluo, Chinese and other East Asians. The company’s booth There was also a Chinese man standing.

"Hello, Huang Xun." The Chinese is not good for this Chinese. After reporting himself, the two sides switched to English.

'Cang! '

When the two held hands together, there was a sudden sound of gold and iron clashing in Song Ya's mind, which sounded like the sound effect of drawing a knife in a movie.

"This person seems a little dangerous, I'd better stay away from him."

After chatting for a while, Song Ya hurriedly left.
