Chicago 1990

Chapter 287 Old Friends At The Signing Meeting

"Mimi, your empirestatemindpartii is already on the list, right? I received it.?????????a`Uh, uh...Of course, I want to kill you. Hey, love you..."

Mariah Carey’s first single EmirestatemindPartii in the mtv unplugged concert ep began to hit the charts, and she airborne the 14th place in the first week. It is hopeful that it will be crowned. At the same time, mj’s inthecloset is seventh, Celine Dion’s. ifyouaskedto ranked thirteenth, plus Songya’s wherethelove who has won four weeks, and jumpjump, who was crushed by him to second place, Sony Columbia Records has as many as five singles in the first group at the same time, all of them can play .

At the beginning of the year, the industry predicted that the Bulletin Board Championship in 1992 would be Sony Columbia Records’ own competition. Billboard magazine exclaimed that the 90s may be the era of Sony Columbia Records. The Hollywood Reporter even began to put "Tommy Motula" 'Located as one of the most powerful names in the American entertainment industry.

Of course, there are different voices. The industry also has high hopes for emerging powers, such as the boyzman group under the old black music company motown, the envogue group under Atlantic Records, and the tlc group under the emerging power Laface Records. The three female R&B combinations have risen very fast. Needless to say, boyzman has already won a bunch of awards at the beginning of the year. Envogue's mylovin' is currently ranked third on the singles chart, and tlc's ain't2proud2beg is ninth.

As a result, many music critics still believe that the 90s will be the era of rhythm and blues, but they slightly modified the definition and split the rhythm and blues into a contemporary rhythm and blues branch from a genre that covers too much.

In addition, the momentum of hip-hop music is also very good. In addition to Song Ya and the combination of jumpjump kriskross, Rikrupin’s record rapper sirmix-a-lot’s babygotback ranks fifth. Rikrupin is also very foresighted. Mingdi bought the rights to the two previous albums of sirmix-a-lot. With this big cash cow, he should no longer be questioned by Litman about his financial situation.

"Alright, let's not talk about it, I'm going to sign for sale, um, bye, mua~"

Song Ya hung up the phone and walked out of the staff aisle of a large bookstore at the signing venue. The already arranged signing venue was crowded with people, the serpentine line could not see the end, and everyone was holding'a+' in their hands. The record also has a large-scale Song Ya poster that was specially given to this signing event, and some even bought more than one copy.

But when his figure appeared at the signing site, the crowd immediately made deafening screams, and the bookstore security began to nervously maintain order, "aplus! aplus!" The screams of people gradually turned from chaos and noise to order. The collective slogan proves that his popularity in Los Angeles has reached a very high level as Wherethelove becomes more and more popular.

"Aplus, our whole family likes you very much, especially my granddaughter."

An old black grandmother was arranged first. She passed the vinyl record in her hand to Song Ya and asked for a group photo.

"No problem." Song Ya signed the name politely, and wrote a small message to the grandmother and granddaughter. Then he hugged each other affectionately across the table, and the grandmother took the opportunity to kiss him on the cheek, this scene faithfully It was recorded by on-site photographers.

After the signing event in Los Angeles, he will go to Atlanta and other places in the south to start the next week's publicity itinerary, and after patiently dealing with the first few more meaningful elderly people, children of different ethnicities and other arranged objects,He sat down and lowered his head to turn on the violent mode. He moved his pen like flying, and he put the record in front of him every three seconds and every three seconds. The efficiency of his signature was very high.

"Aplus, I love you." A girl took the opportunity to confess.

"Thank you, I love you too."

"Good afternoon, brother aplus..." A little girl led by her father handed the record up, not as high as the table.

"Good afternoon, too." Song Ya handed the record back to her, "take it." Then he smiled at his father, "Your daughter? Very cute."

"Hey, brother, your song is cool..." A young black man held out his fist.

"Thank you for supporting brothers." Song Ya handed back the record, fisting.

"Can you write to my dearest Billy? aplus." said a white man.

"Who is Billy?"

"I."

Song Ya didn't speak any more and signed an'aplus' to send him away.

Then there were people who suddenly attacked and kissed strongly, who refused to let go when they held their hands, and were so happy that they cried on the spot.

After half an hour of high-intensity signing, the crowd at the scene finally became thinner.

"Hi."

"Hi." Song Ya handed back the record.

"Uh..." The other party didn't leave, and seemed to want to say something.

The smooth signing process immediately stopped, and the people in the line started to complain, "Miss, please don't disturb the order." Mavota came to rush the people.

Song Ya looked up, looking from the bottom up, light blue jeans, a very simple white round neck T-shirt on top, the middle part was well proportioned, the standard blonde and white girl wore large round-frame myopia glasses.

"we……"

The continuous urging behind her and the Mavota who grabbed her arm made the girl very embarrassed. She made the last effort before being driven away, pointing to herself and Song Ya, squeezing a smile, "In South Africa."

"Oh!"

Song Ya immediately remembered the pair of dimples on her a little fat baby face. The girl in front of him was the one he had picked up at the airport in South Africa. The photo was still in the book at home!It’s just that the girl is fatter than before. No, she’s a bit stronger. The confident look on her face was gone when she met at the South African airport last time. Her complexion might have been a little reddened by the California sun and she was wearing big glasses. As a result, he didn't recognize it at all for the first time.

"Mavota, wait." He stopped Mavota's movement. "You are... Miss Theron, right? Come to the United States?"

"Yes! Just arrived soon!" The girl suddenly became very happy, and she waved her hands excitedly, "I didn't expect you to remember my name aplus, the last time my family happened..."

"Hurry up, Biyiahchi!" A black girl scolded jealously at the back, aplus fans all know their personal preferences.

"So...you go find her." Song Ya snapped his fingers towards Taraji, "We'll contact again."

"Uh, all right."

The girl didn't expect Song Ya to dismiss her with a single sentence, so she went to find Taraji with a complicated expression, and Song Ya continued to sign the sale.

"I bought all your previous single records."

The voice of the black girl who was scolding just now rang in front of Song Ya, and the singles from ifeeling were gathered on the table, "ifeeling, ifeelingbaby..." She even sang on the spot.

"Really? Thank you for your support."

Song Ya picked out the'a+' album, signed it, and then pushed back the pile of records, without looking up.

His hands were sore, his arms seemed to be not his own, and he felt that his eyes were beginning to bloom, so he signaled to the staff of the bookstore next to him that the other party began to prohibit new fans from entering the venue.

"The signing is almost over. It's..." The staff checked the progress visually, went to the middle of the queue and drew a line, "So far, aplus is very tired, please cooperate!"

Regretful complaints sounded simultaneously with the rejoicing of fans on the line. The scene rioted again for a while, and it took a while to gradually restore order under the pressure of the bookstore security.

"Can aplus sign both of us? This, and this..."

The last middle-aged lady handed over a lot of albums. Song Ya looked up and saw that the long queue of signings was gone. Several fans outside the line were waiting there, looking at herself expectantly.

"Okay, no problem." Song Ya finished signing the rest.

"Group photo?" The middle-aged lady took out the camera she had brought.

"Ok."

Song Ya stood up, kept smiling, and asked Taraji to help take a group photo before ending the signing.

"You are the best talking and polite star I have ever seen aplus."

The bookstore manager came over to shake hands, "Is it a test of people's patience?"

"Indeed." Song Ya rubbed his shoulders and smiled bitterly.

"Can you take a photo with all our employees?"

"Uh, good."

"Sign us all again?"

"..."
