Just as Mary and Father Chen were busy with Chen Zhiming's 'masterpiece', Chen Zhiming arrived in Los Angeles to negotiate with the UA Football Association headquarters.
The negotiations were held in the office of the Los Angeles Football Association headquarters. The person in charge was David, the deputy head of the Football Association and the head of the World Cup publicity.
"You must be Leo. Compared to three years ago, you're even more handsome.”When David saw Leo, he grabbed Chen Zhiming's hand enthusiastically.
"Yes." Chen Zhiming shrugged and said to David,""How is it? Have you considered it?"
"Good! Very good!" David praised him twice in a row." However, there's a problem.”
"What's the problem?" Chen Zhiming was puzzled." Could it be that this song didn't get selected?”
"No, that's not it. We've already decided to hire this song.”David said hurriedly.
"Then what's the problem?"
"Hehe, it's also because your songs are too outstanding. I believe you know about the two songs 'Glorious Land' and 'We Are the Champions' that you originally prepared.”David looked at Chen Zhiming with a smile." We've been thinking about it for a long time. We're prepared to remove the Glorious Land and replace it with your Cup of Life.”
"En, not bad. What other problems do you have?”Chen Zhiming was puzzled.
"Hahahaha, Leo, don't be fooled by David's words.”Bill walked over enthusiastically and said to Chen Zhiming,""Right now, our problem is whether we should use the 'Cup of Life' as the opening song or the closing song.”
"Erm... Bill, please don't always steal my lines.”David said to Bill awkwardly, then turned to Chen Zhiming and said,"" That's right. We originally planned to use the 'Land of Honor' as the opening song, but now…"
"But now, it's not impossible for your 'Cup of Life' to replace 'Glorious Land' as the opening song, but the song 'We Are the Champions' is also very meaningful to our American football.”
" En, that's true." Chen Zhiming thought to himself." We are the champions and the Land of Glory are undoubtedly the desire of our country to be champions. The Cup of Life has a wider scope and can be used by all national teams. The main problem here is whether the United States is as arrogant as imagined."
If their desire for their team to win was far greater than that of other teams, then the theme song must be 'We are the champions.' If it was for the success of the entire competition and to treat their own country equally with other countries, then the theme song must be 'The Cup of Life'.
"This is indeed a very troublesome problem.”Chen Zhiming said and then fell silent. The main thing here was to see the attitude of the Football Association.
The meeting room was a little dull. Chen Zhiming found it funny to see the other party frowning. This group of fanatical Americans was too arrogant. As a football desert, could they still hope to win?
"Leo's American, right?”
At this moment, Bill suddenly said something unknown. Although it had nothing to do with the topic of discussion, it was like a hammer that woke everyone up.
" I've decided. Leo will sing his 'Cup of Life' for the theme song," David said firmly.
The creators of " We Are the Champions " were those annoying British guys. Although Chen Zhiming was from China, he was an American. What could be more important than an American singing a song created by the United States?
When something that was originally very complicated was upgraded to a race problem, the original confusion would immediately become like a spider web, facing the blade.
" Perhaps this is the reality in the United States." Chen Zhiming secretly laughed and pretended to be happy as he held David's hand." Then I wish us a happy cooperation."”
"Yes, happy cooperation." David's face was flushed red. He was in a good mood now that he had finally resolved a matter that he had been considering for a few days.
"This is the contract. Take a look." David seemed to be performing a magic trick as he took out a thick stack of documents from behind him. It seemed that they had prepared everything beforehand. Everything here was just an act for Chen Zhiming to see.
"This group of cunning foxes." Chen Zhiming cursed under his breath. He lowered his head and looked at the contract seriously, afraid that he would accidentally fall into their trap again. Chen Zhiming was really a little afraid of these Americans.
"Hmm? 40% of the song copyright." Chen Zhiming was a little confused when he read this. He did not expect the Football Association to want the copyright of the song. It seemed that society was indeed interested in profit. A football committee wanted to release a record.
However, this was not bad. Chen Zhiming was short of money now. With the promotion of the Football Association, plus the cost of the album and so on, he only needed to sit back and enjoy the fruits of his labor. He could also shut Worldwide up. After all, no matter how powerful Worldwide was in the United States, it was just an entertainment company. Hollywood had a lot of them.
Seeing that there were no other problems, Chen Zhiming happily wrote down his name.
"What about the song promotion and rehearsal?”When Bill saw Chen Zhiming sign his name, he said solemnly," Can we start now?”
"No rush!" David smiled, looking like he had been through a lot. He narrowed his eyes and smiled evilly." I believe that the 'Cup of Life' will become famous with just one song. There's no need for too much publicity. We just need to announce that the theme song has been changed. As for rehearsals, hehe, Leo, you might be very busy from now on.”
"No problem." Chen Zhiming nodded. He had already signed the contract, so he had no reason not to attend the rehearsal.
In the following days, Chen Zhiming became busier and more exhausted. During the day, he had to go to the field to participate in rehearsals. Then, he would go to the company to check on the production of the songs. Once the production of a song was completed, Chen Zhiming would immediately find someone to start recording MTV.
Chen Zhiming also ran around the entire United States until the weather started to heat up. Chen Zhiming's hard work finally improved.
Unknowingly, it was already June 12th. It was finally time for the World Cup to start. Chen Zhiming's rehearsal had finally ended.
There were only five days left until the World Cup. Chen Zhiming was sitting at home, waiting to recharge his energy. The Football Association was also waiting. People all over the world were also looking forward to the World Cup.
Due to the good confidentiality of the Football Association, no one knew what the theme song of the World Cup was like. They only knew that the song had been replaced. As for what was replaced and who sang it, no one knew.
They were looking forward to the arrival of the World Cup, and they were also looking forward to the release of the mysterious World Cup theme song.
