Chapter 520: The Timing of the Premiere of This Song Is Perfect

After hanging up the phone with Mariah Carey, Zhou Yan did not rest and started writing the score of "Bleeding Love".

This thing is really simple. It took Zhou Yan less than ten minutes to finish the score.

After writing, he put the score aside and prepared to send it to Mariah Carey tomorrow.

Then he picked up the book and went back to the sofa to continue reading.

Zhou Yan didn't go to wash and sleep until the Spring Festival Gala was over.

In the next few days, he followed his family to visit relatives, just like in previous years, nothing special.

…

After Mariah Carey talked to Zhou Yan on the phone, she kept thinking about the new song.

Fortunately, Zhou Yan didn't let her wait too long. He sent her the score a day later.

After getting the score, she directly sight-singed it.

After singing it only once, she realized the excellence of this song, and she immediately called Walter Ya Fansef.

Walter Ya Fansef is one of the producers of the new album and also her old friend. They had produced many songs together before.

When Walter Ya received Mariah Carey's call, he knew it was about the new album, so he smiled and said, "Maria, do you have any new ideas for the new album?"

The new album is progressing well. The twelve songs have basically been finalized, and some songs have started recording, so Walter Ya is very relaxed now.

This album should be the most relaxed one he has ever made.

Sometimes he secretly sighed that Maria's divorce was a good choice. After the divorce, Maria was very energetic in making the album.

"I invited another new song." Mariah Carey said.

"New song?" Walter Ya was very confused, "Aren't the songs already finalized? Are you going to increase the number of songs to thirteen?"

They had previously worked out the number of songs in the album, and finally determined that it would be twelve, but they might add songs when it was released in other regions, and the songs added in other regions were all old songs.

"The number remains the same. I want to replace one of the previous twelve songs."

"Change? Which one?"

"I haven't decided yet, so I called you to discuss this matter."

"Are you sure you want to change?"

Waltya meant to ask if it was worth changing the song now, after all, they had spent a lot of time on the previous twelve songs.

"Of course, this is Y-chou's new song." Mariah Carey smiled.

When he heard the name Y-chou, Waltya didn't hesitate at all and said immediately, "Change, must change, so, let's replace the song "the beautiful ones."

"The beautiful ones" is not an original song, but a cover of Prince, so Waltya thinks it can be replaced directly. No matter how good the cover is, it is not as good as the original.

"Well, that's fine. When it is released in other regions, add that song."

"That's it. Tell me quickly, what style is Y's new song, and are the lyrics out?" Waltya asked eagerly.

"Let's go to the company when we have time in the afternoon. I'll sing it for you. Y has already written all the lyrics, and I don't have anything to change."

"Okay, see you in the afternoon."

...

Mariah Carey is busy with her new song, and Celine Dion and Sony have already negotiated with ABC about the broadcast rights of the concert.

This matter was discussed a few days ago, and now it is finally settled.

ABC originally wanted to lower the price, but the news about the new song "all of me" has been getting more and more popular recently, and they are afraid that if they don't reach an agreement, it will be snatched away by other TV companies.

In addition, although the box office of "Time Traveler" of 80 million yuan is not very impressive in Hollywood, it has broken the box office record in mainland China after all, which is a small gimmick, which also affects the progress of the negotiations.

And the last point is that Valentine's Day on February 14th will be in a few days.

If they can get the first broadcast rights of the love song "all of me" at this time, it will undoubtedly guarantee the ratings of the channel.

After the cooperation was reached, ABC began to promote Celine Dion's concert and the news that "All of Me" would premiere on February 14.

...

"You mean, ABC is promoting Celine Dion's concert now?"

Dante Self, Bantam Group, looked at his assistant Campo, "And the most popular song in this concert was written by Y?"

"Well, not only was it written by Y, but it's also an episode in Y's new movie. Celine Dion's first concert in New York some time ago has attracted a lot of attention, but because the song has not been officially released, only the audience who went to the concert have heard this song, and no one else has heard it."

Dante nodded, "In other words, everyone wants to listen to this song now?"

"Yes, so it's very popular. Billboard published an article before, and the song was highly praised."

"Sure enough, our choice was right at that time."

Dante Self smiled, "Go and announce the news, saying that Y's new book will be released soon."

"Should we advance the release date of the new book?"

"What date in April will "Shutter Island" be released?"

"It's April 18th."

"Just follow the original schedule, no need to change it, and the publicity plan should also follow the original schedule. By the way, when will Y's new movie "About Time" be released in the United States?"

"I've asked, but it hasn't been decided yet."

"Follow up later."

"Understood."

Under normal circumstances, Dante Selfo would not pay too much attention to the release of a novel. After all, their group is so large, and there are too many new books released every year. If he pays attention to every book, it would be too tiring.

But Y's situation is different. Although this is Y's first novel released in the United States, Dante always feels that this book can sell well, and Y's potential is definitely more than that.

Therefore, now as long as he has free time, he will pay attention to the situation of "Shutter Island".

Now it seems that his decision to use a first print of one million copies to win "Shutter Island" was wise. This time, the promotion of "All of Me", plus the release of "About Time" and "Shutter Island" movies later, the popularity will not be low throughout the year.

As long as the popularity can be maintained, even if the sales volume is not particularly high, the pressure to sell the first print of one million copies is not very great, at least there will be no loss.

"And," Dante said again, "when is the premiere?"

"It seems to be 7 o'clock in the evening on February 14th."

"Oh, this time is good, I'll go check it out later."

...

Time flies, and it's February 14th.

Olivia and Salori waited in front of the TV early, waiting for the premiere of Celine Dion's concert.

Today is Valentine's Day, but they are both single and didn't go out on a date, so they just watched TV at home.

Although they have listened to this concert live, after knowing the news of the premiere, they decided to watch it again without hesitation.

After listening to "all of me" last time, they have been thinking about this song. Unfortunately, this song has not been released, so they can't hear it normally. Today, they can finally hear it again.

There are many people waiting in front of the TV like them, and even many couples, Jessica and Hardison are one of them.

Today on Valentine's Day, the two of them did not go out to play, but chose to watch TV at home, waiting to listen to "all of me".

Valentine's Day comes every year, and as long as two people love each other, every day is Valentine's Day.

You can find a correct version in 16191book1bar!

But Y's new song premiered, and you will miss it if you miss it.

They have been waiting for this song for a long time. Some time ago, they even went to the previous record store and asked if they could find a record from China, but they were told that there was no record. Even in the movie "Time Traveler", there is no complete version of this song.

Speaking of "Time Traveler", they are upset again.

Not to mention "Time Traveler", even "The Chorus" has not been officially released in the United States.

Why does it take so long for Y's new movie to be released in the United States?

Can't it be released in China and the United States at the same time? What is the technical difficulty? Isn't it just to get the subtitles out? The review in the United States should not be very strict.

Is there no company willing to represent Y's movie?

This shouldn't be the case. After all, Y has proved his box office ability. The box office of "The Sixth Sense" was very good before.

Now they can only hope that "Time Traveler" can be released in the United States as soon as possible. Even if it is not released, the videotape must be made as soon as possible. Otherwise, if you want to watch it, you have to go through special channels.

Don't be like "The Chorus", which is neither released nor released on videotape.

Sometimes Jessica and others feel that it is too difficult to be Y's fans and fans in the United States. Even if they don't compare with Chinese fans and fans, they are also very miserable compared with Japanese fans and fans.

They are particularly envious of Y's fans in Japan, because Y's works are spread fastest in Japan except in China.

In Japan, you can see almost all of Y's works.

Let's talk about movies first. Y's movies are usually released in China first, and then released in Japan soon, so Japanese fans don't need to wait too long.

As for music, although Y's albums are now released in the United States and Japan at the same time, Japanese fans can still get more than European and American fans, such as the song "Snow Flower" that was popular in Japan last year, and the songs sung by Shizuka Kudo before. These are difficult for European and American fans to hear, and the key is that there is no English version.

Finally, there is literature, which is also the most lacking for European and American fans.

Y has published novels in Japan, so Japanese fans basically know that Y is also a novelist, but many European and American fans don't know, they only know that Y is a musician and director. Yes, most of them don't even know that Y is an actor. They haven't seen "Raise the Red Lantern" and "Green Snake".

Of course, Jessica and the others can understand it. After all, China is the origin and center of East Asian culture, and Japan is so close to China. These are all normal.

They just feel a little regretful. It would be better if the United States could be closer to China.

"It's about to start."

Hardison's voice sounded in her ears, and Jessica looked up at the TV.

Without any preparation, Celine Dion's concert started playing directly on TV.

They actually knew that "All of Me" would only appear at the end of the concert, but they still listened carefully to the songs before the concert. Celine Dion's performance in this concert was indeed very good.

Until the end of the concert, Celine Dion returned in her best clothes and said with a smile, "Next, the song I will sing is a new song you haven't heard before."

Hearing this, Jessica and Hardison's expressions were lifted. They knew that "All of Me" was coming.

Sure enough, Celine Dion on TV began to introduce the song, "This song is called "All of Me", which is an episode in "About Time"..."

Hardison smiled. Celine Dion was really a good friend. She actually promoted Y's new movie so hard at the concert. However, after her promotion, they wanted to watch it even more.

I believe that after the broadcast of this concert today, more people will want to watch "About Time".

After the introduction, Celine Dion began to hum like a heavenly sound.

Hearing this humming, Jessica closed her eyes and immersed herself in this heavenly sound.

The melody is so good, and Celine Dion's voice is so good.

When the humming ended, Celine Dion began to sing formally.

"What would I do without your smart mouth."

...

After the first sentence of "All of Me" came out, Harry Kane felt goose bumps all over his body. He expected the song to be good, but he didn't expect it to be so catchy and moving right from the start.

He usually doesn't watch TV, but today, for Y's new song, he stayed in front of the TV and watched the concert for more than an hour.

At this moment, when he heard the first sentence, he knew that all the previous waiting was worth it.

And the surprise is still to come. This song is impeccable from section A to section C.

After listening to the whole song, Harry Kane smiled. ABC chose to premiere this song at a great time, just on Valentine's Day.

"All of me" is indeed very suitable for Valentine's Day, especially the chorus "'Cause all of meLoves all of you" is so memorable that you can't forget it after listening to it.

Even Harry Kane couldn't help but want to sing a line.

Starting from this line, to the following sections, it is especially suitable for singing to lovers, or for confession.

In fact, Harry Kane was right. After the song was played on TV, the chorus quickly spread, and countless people sang this song to their loved ones that day.

They may not remember how to sing the whole song, but they can remember the chorus.

And ABC is also very considerate. Not long after the concert ended, it played "All of me" again separately.

In fact, Sony did not authorize ABC to play singles, but ABC has the right to play highlights, which is considered to be playing a marginal game. Sony naturally knows that they are all turning a blind eye.

In addition to TV broadcasts, there are also radio broadcasts, and Sony must charge for this part.

For Sony and Celine Dion, this is like releasing a new single. (End of this chapter)
