Going Into the World!

"This song really made our Americans' hearts tingle, and drenched the eyes of many. From December 29th to February of last year, the number one song on the Contoury Billboard in five weeks! Listen to Where Were You. Alan Jackson!"

I was surprised to see black smoke rising from the blue sky.

Did you weep for the children who lost loved ones, pray for the strangers?

Did you rejoice for the people who walked from the rubble,

I was happy to walk out of that pile of rubble, and I was moaning for the people underneath.

Where were you on the day of September when the world stopped?

During Alan Jackson's song, the Grammy Awards Ceremony evoked a solemn atmosphere. It breaks my heart to think about the people who died or were hurt. Especially the vivid scenes that were hanging from the windows of the building and falling still remain in my memory.

I could see them stealing tears from everywhere. After six months, the aftermath of 9/11 is still alive. CNN is experiencing a 24-hour war in Afghanistan where full-scale operations are taking place, probably because people are realizing that the United States is at war.

"But CNN, Iraq, Iran, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah..."

Everyone is deeply loved that this song expresses and touches the hearts of Americans. It's not that bad, but I have some lyrics that make my head tilt no matter what I think. Like some propaganda, it even has a certain broadcaster and country name in it.

"So many people went out naked to grieve, to be happy, and to help. One of them reminds me of 9/11... were you here today?"

As the moderator, Stuart, looks up and down, people follow him around to the left and to the right, trying to find someone.

[Who are you talking about?]

[By any chance, is that the chairman of the Johnstone Group over there?]

[You mean Chairman John Kim?]

[That's when we got the helicopter on the roof.]

[I ~ g. His girlfriend was there, too.]

'Huhu. What's wrong with everyone? With everything that's happened.'

As the moderator looks at me, thousands of pairs of gazes converge against Jennifer. I just heard a solemn song that touched my heart, but I have a feeling of respect for the way I look at myself. Well, I mean, I feel that way, but judging by the mood I had just stolen a tear from, you can't be wrong.

Many of the people sitting in front of them are in the music industry or in their respective fields. Of course, there are many stars on TV and in the spring. Jennifer grabs my arm. There are a lot of people, but I think it's because of the overwhelming pressure of this big event that at least 20 million people are watching.

And what about me? Huh-huh-huh-huh. I kept my waist and neck as stiff as possible, and my face was as solemn as possible, enjoying the glare of glamour and respect.

The richest man in the world, the Lord of the Internet, the owner of the largest building in the world, and the Chairman of the world's best record companies. Jennifer glares at me for who I am. What do you think? This is what your Western family looks like.

"As you all know, Chairman John Kim spent a billion dollars on 9/11 victims. And this is something that hasn't been published yet. So far, the aggregate has reached four billion dollars nationwide. What's remarkable is that the proceeds from the Johnson Foundation exceeded $2.8 billion by over two-thirds. The Foundation and Johnstone Group are an easy, transparent fundraiser for many people to trust and support many people in need. Thank you for your hard work."

* Splash, splash, splash *

Americans, of course, are not stingy with applause on this side. Even songs with bad lyrics, like the song just now, were greatly loved. Naturally, I sincerely applaud the hard work I've done for the victims in our foundation, along with the billion dollars I've donated. Money comes to our foundation because we can trust it and make it easy to donate it online. Park Su-ri continued for a long time.

"Oh, you know what?"

The moderator lowers his applause and suddenly makes a sudden comment. People listened to what they wanted to say.

"Khh-hmm. I'm not a musician, but as members of the American Association of Musicians who host this event, musicians, composers, producers, etc., have chosen the person they like best this year. Do you know who that is?"

Who's your favorite?]

[It's not what people like, at the Musicians' Association?]

[A singer or a composer likes it?]

What are you talking about?]

People don't seem to understand it because they are just making noise. Stuart laughs as if it was fun for people to take quizzes and not fit into the microphone. In response, people also have curious eyes, and suddenly someone comes out of the backstage, and comes up to the microphone.

"I'll answer that. For those of you who don't know, I'm Mark Taylor from the remix of Miss Lopez, Jay Roe. Not only Miss Lopez, but also the composer and many others who participated in our production, Rooney, Shea, Goti and Olivia, are grateful for the dividend rate that has been raised with the J-Tunes. Mr. President, I appreciate 50% salary increase this year, but will you raise it again later?"

Hahaha! Hahaha!

Hehehehehe, hehehehehe!

Taylor's comedy, "Are you bringing it up again? 'When people knocked their pockets, they burst into laughter, and the camera and people's gaze came back to me. I nodded, smiling.

I heard similar things from Mr. Brandt, who was in Warner Music last time. The success of J-Tunes has given producers and composers a very encouraging response. As the price fell into my hands, the number of people who liked me and supported JTunes increased dramatically.

I also responded by giving a gesture to increase the dividend for singers, composers and producers. Honestly, even if I give you an extra 10%, my margin rate doesn't really matter how big I am. If you produce more records with people who come to high dividends, it is a gain. In this case, you should save money and let it go.

I can see the universal greeting face sitting on the other side of the room shaking, but that's not a good sound for a third-party record player.

"You were mimicking James Bond on the North Tower rooftop at 9/11, right? We rescued a lot of people on the top floor of the building, and we also rescued them in an urgent situation! A philanthropist who risked his life for his girlfriend, who took the support of women and gave $1 billion for his family! We can't just stay here. We've prepared a little prize. Step forward, please, and Miss Jennifer next to you."

[What's the prize?]

[Well, isn't that the merit of 9/11?]

[I hear Warner Music and the Association are close. Is that true?]

Why did Miss Jennifer leave?]

I hear people making noise. I wonder what's going on with the sudden calls and what kind of awards. Jennifer, who was sitting next to me, was very embarrassed the moment her name was mentioned.

"John, why are you calling me? What should I do?"

"Phew, I don't know why I'm calling you, how do I know? Let's just go."

Peek-a-boo! Peek-a-boo! Peek-a-boo!

People clap excitedly. Especially, seeing women responding harder, I think they are excited again about my story that has been on the topic for a while. I escorted Jennifer off the stage slowly. The moderator shakes his hand for a moment and gives him a place to speak.

"Thank you for having me onstage."

I put my mouth on the microphone and looked at Jennifer, and then I looked at the audience. People seemed very curious about what I was going to say. Come on, I'm a hero of 9/11, and even though I just had a song sung to commemorate it, it never came out.

Standing next to me, Jennifer seems nervous by the heat and curiosity of thousands of spectators. I've been in front of the public a lot, but everyone is nervous on this stage. Oh, well, I'm no substitute, of course.

"Actually, what I'm here for today..."

Instead of talking, I put my hand in the suit's pocket and pulled out a small box. Jennifer opens the box and takes out the contents as she flies the stench into Jennifer's surprised gaze and people's puzzled appearance. I lift up what I have in my hand, and its resplendent appearance shines in the light.

That's a ring, isn't it?]

Isn't that a diamond ring?]

[Are you giving me a ring?]

[Ah! By any chance?]

Isn't that a proposition ring?]

Propose, proposition!]

[I think so. She's getting married!]

At first, the loud people shouted as if they knew something later. One man's admiration spread quickly, drawing out another, as if it were transmitted to something. Particularly, as copulation erupted from the women, it quickly turned into a frenzied crucible like a concert venue.

It seems that women who like these events want to see the next scene as soon as they clap their hands, but some of them are still confused.

Whoa, whoa.

Peek-a-boo! Peek-a-boo! Peek-a-boo!

"Oh, John. Here... I don't know."

Jennifer is ashamed of the sudden development of the situation by covering her face with her hands, but in the meantime she looks very impressed. Too many people seem to be excited about the noise, but it's good. There are no women who don't like events for women. When I smile, I look at me with a gaze full of love and rage.

In fact, for the event of the day, I had to spend a million dollars separately to donate to the Association, and the officials had to be nice. Fortunately, Brandt has considerable industry experience, and the newly recruited directors are also widespread, making this event possible because they are very friendly with the members of the association. Recently, Warner Music officials have been sweeping the floor and increasing their support.

Since it was the first Grammy Awards ceremony since 9/11, the association planned the program first. Maybe American sentiments really needed this. At this point, the most relevant person to 9/11 was Alan Jackson, who was singing people's hearts, and I was captivating people on the ground. The association cautiously asked me if I could come out and make a quick comment and introduce you to Alan. This is usually the format of the awards ceremony.

I've been thinking a lot about this proposal lately. I thought it was going well, but when I happened to watch TV, I found out that women are very excited about this. No, I checked again.

At this point, I was asked to speak at the Grammy Awards ceremony, and I counteroffered. When I asked if I could do the event, I initially showed an egg. I told him it would only take a minute for a million dollars, and he gave me permission. According to the authorities, these surprise events were raised when they increased viewership, not lowered, but they were just a little concerned because they had never happened before.

"In fact, there are only a few people who know why I started the Johnstone Group and came here today. In a way, it was a bit embarrassing, and I told them not to talk about it."

As I begin my first sentence, I seem to be wondering what the hell you're talking about when there's a commotion again. This must be the story that people like to hear about the first revealing story of the richest man in the world.

Jennifer puts her hands on her chest and is like a girl, so she doesn't know what to do. Huh. My scale's a little big, isn't it?

"A lot of people think I started an IT company with some big dream, but it's an 'absolute' misunderstanding. The only reason I went into the internship in Yahoo for the first time was because I stepped on the floor. And then I met Jennifer, the Quincaine from my school, and she was so beautiful, and it was just great. And I wanted to kiss her. I wanted to kiss her. You guys know what I'm talking about."

Hahaha! Hahaha!

Hehehehehe, hehehehehe!

Peek-a-boo! Peek-a-boo!

When I make a somewhat sarcastic face, I panic in the audience because it is fun. The people who burst into laughter seemed to urge us to quickly tell the next story.

"I want to pull out a car and go for a drive and have a good kiss inside, but I don't have any money. That's what I'm thinking, and a friend I used to know has a job at Yahoo. I had to buy a car, and I started to like it."

I continued to talk with the laughter and the rumbling of people. Reporters and cameramen just below the stage take elongated photos of the world's wealthiest confessional shootings.

"That's how I started, so I bought a car. Oh, of course, I was able to have a nice date as I hoped. Here, I'm not going to go into detail."

Hehehehehe, hehehehehe!

Peek-a-boo! Peek-a-boo!

Hahaha! Hahaha!

When you talk about it, the women scream that it's better, but Jennifer's face rises red with shame. Still, my eyes are wide open and I look at you, but I don't hate your face. Heh heh.

"What would have happened if I hadn't met Jennifer? Sometimes I ask myself this question. During the great revolution of IT and the Internet revolution, did I, who was just a student, fall slightly backwards into academia without any particular motivation? Absolutely not. If I hadn't met Jennifer, I would have just studied hard because I had enough allowance. I would have been able to get in and out of a good company later, but it would have been different from heaven and earth than I am now. I met Jennifer like a lottery ticket."

Peek-a-boo! Peek-a-boo! Peek-a-boo!

Let me change my attitude to a serious mode. Despite the heat, people listened to my words and clapped. I have listened and laid the audience in the manner of words that have been sharpened and polished for many years. Since I am quite experienced in 'propaganda', this is nothing. However, as I speak, I am intoxicated myself. Hehe.

You pause for a moment, look Jennifer in the lovely eyes, then look back into the audience.

"I'd like to ask Jennifer, who showed me my way for the first time and who has helped me for a long time, to join me for the last time."

With the ring in my hand, I approached Jennifer standing next to me. When my eyes met me, I was moved by Jennifer's tears, her feeling of being the only one beside me among hundreds of millions of people in the United States, and her beautiful and lovely appearance.

The audience watched as I breathed out the next words, and I felt silent in the quiet awards hall. I grabbed Jennifer's white hand and brought the diamond ring closer.

"Jennifer, would you allow me to put a ring on your finger? You're not gonna feed me in front of all these people, are you?"

When I'm done, Jennifer now has thousands of pairs of eyes on her, and the cameras turn around as she bursts. Jennifer smiles slightly, nodding slowly as she seems to hold her temper for a moment. Okay, on the sign, I pinned the diamond ring I prepared to my finger.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Peek-a-boo! Peek-a-boo!

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Peek-a-boo! Peek-a-boo!

I held Jennifer slightly and kissed her. In my ears, women's intercourse, people's euphoria, attention and jealousy, and the screams of the reporters... The heat and excitement reflects back in the hall. Jennifer's heart flutters with excitement.

Artwork Reviews

Alan Jackson's "Where Were You, When the World Stopped Turning" is a song that resonates with the hearts of Americans, as the text says. Alan did this song on the 9/11 Special Stage at Grammy in 2002, and the next year, in 2003, he also won the Grammy Award for the same song, and the aftermath of 9/11 lasted a long time in the United States. It was the impact of the war on terror.

In fact, I didn't even know this song existed, so I heard it directly on YouTube. I didn't know it at first, but then I tasted the lyrics quietly, and I had a little sense of why the executives of the First Contoury Music Association were crying, and the next day they were broadcasting them to radio stations all over the country.

For your information, the 2002 Grammy Awards Ceremony was actually held on February 27th, and it was later in the day.
