Wang An was not nervous after hearing Mike's words. Instead, he nodded generously and admitted it. Mike was easy to deceive, but because he had been deceived too many times, he was also very fragile.
Sure enough, Mike was not disappointed when he heard Wang An's words. Instead, he stared at Li Xuan. This time, Mike's heart, which had not wavered for several years, beat again. He had the idea of nurturing Li Xuan.
Wang An said to Mike," Mike, I know that you won't accept it even if it's just charity. That's why I want you to invest in making an album for this child and let him debut in the United States. I can guarantee that his value won't be comparable to yours, but it will definitely ease your debt a lot.”
At this moment, Mike's debt was already as high as 500 million (2009 data) USD. Indeed, as Wang An had said, if he could nurture Li Xuan, it would also reduce Mike's burden.
As for Li Xuan, he did not expect to earn much money from this trip to the United States. He only wanted this name. As long as he had fame, his future would be smooth sailing. After all, Li Xuan was only fifteen years old at the moment. There were still many possibilities for his future. Therefore, for his goal, he could give Mike all the money he would earn in the United States in the future.
Mike was also very tempted by Wang An's words. Although he didn't care much about money, he couldn't do anything about his debts. So he said to Wang An,"Wang, I want to talk to this child."”
When Wang An heard Mike's words, he immediately smiled and said,"Alright." After saying that, Wang An waved at Li Xuan, gesturing for him to come over. Li Xuan had been secretly observing the two of them, so after seeing Wang An's gesture, he immediately stood up and walked towards where he and Mike were.
When Li Xuan walked into the distance and saw Mike, he remembered the time when he was chasing after stars. He had taught himself English and his songs. Li Xuan's eyes could not help but moisten.
When Mike saw Li Xuan's eyes, he knew that this child was a very competent fan, so he took off his sunglasses. Li Xuan saw that Mike's face was very pale and slightly haggard, but he had a pair of very bright eyes.
Li Xuan said to Mike,"Hello, Mike." My name is Sun. I'm your fan. I've liked you for seven years, eight months, and twelve days.”
Mike's eyes immediately froze when he heard Li Xuan's words. He did not expect Li Xuan to be so concerned about him. He could even be so meticulous about liking him, and he had blurted it out.
Mike asked Li Xuan,"Child, did you really learn your English by yourself?"”Li Xuan smiled and said,"Without you, I might not be like this."”Indeed, if not for Mike, Li Xuan might have been active in the country, so he would not have come into contact with English.
Mike nodded at Li Xuan. After all, Mike liked children very much. Although Li Xuan was no longer a child, he was only fifteen years old. This made Mike not guard against Li Xuan at all.
Mike said to Wang An,"Wang, come back to America with me tomorrow."”Wang An immediately smiled and said,"Alright."
Mike then put his hand on Li Xuan's shoulder and said,"Child, I know why you came to me. I will make you a rising star.”Mike said this completely because Li Xuan was his fan, and he was so passionate about music, which touched Mike very much. After all, Mike was not passionate about music. Otherwise, he would not have released so few albums. However, Mike knew the charm of music, so when he saw that Li Xuan was so passionate about music at such a young age, he loved him.
Li Xuan did not say anything the entire time because this was the first time he had met his idol. He had a lot to say, but when he saw Mike, he suddenly could not say anything. He could only be a competent fan.
The next afternoon, the three of them flew directly to the United States in Mike's private jet. Dice, who was in charge of picking up the plane, saw that Mike was in a good mood, so he gave Wang An a thumbs up and said,"You have a way. I called him several times, but he never came back.”
Wang An smiled and said,"In order to get him back, I sacrificed a living person."”
Hearing Wang An's words, Dyze looked at Li Xuan at the side and said to Mike and Wang An,"This is?"
"This is my boss," Wang An said with a smile.”Li Xuan was indeed his boss. Mike said,"This is my student."”
This time, Li Xuan and the other two were all shocked. Back then, when Li Xuan and Mike were on their way back, he did not say this.
"Mike, have you thought it through?”He knew that anyone who got involved with Mike would definitely become famous, whether they had a purpose or not. Li Xuan looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, which made Dyze somewhat wary. After all, it had only been a few years since Mike had been sued for child molestation. Moreover, the other party was also a teenager.
Mike said to Dice,"Don't worry, I've already thought it through this time."”Dice saw that Mike had made up his mind, so he nodded and brought them to Dream Manor.
After arriving at Dream Manor, Mike arranged accommodation for Li Xuan and Wang An. There was a full set of recording equipment in Dream Manor, so after Li Xuan settled down, he was called over by Mike to record.
Diss, Mike, and Wang Anquan were all present. Then, after Li Xuan saw Mike's gesture, he put on his headphones and prepared to sing. Li Xuan first sang Youarenotalone, then Earth Song, and then Madona's La Isla Bonita. This was probably a song that most people in China were very familiar with.
The lyrics of the first song, the helplessness of the second song, and the exotic atmosphere of the third song were all vividly reflected on a fifteen-year-old youth.
When Li Xuan sang, Mike clenched his fists excitedly. On the other hand, Wang An was a little proud. He knew about Li Xuan's heaven-defying talent, while Dyze said in shock,"Oh my god! Was this really sung by a fifteen-year-old child? This is unbelievable!"
Then, Deus said to Mike,"We must get the agency to sign him. When the time comes, we'll do our best to nurture him. I don't dare to say that he'll be like you in the 80s and 90s, but he won't be weaker than Britney.”
Mike smiled and said,"I'll leave everything to you."”
On the same day, Dyze took the demo and video of Li Xuan's singing and went straight to Motown Records. When Dyze arrived at Motown, he went straight to the boss 'office. When the boss saw Dyze, he said,"Dyze, you're here. What's the matter?”Although Mike's morale had fallen in the past few years, Dice was undeniably a top-notch agent. Moreover, Dice had worked in Motown for 30 years, so the owner of Motown respected him very much.
"Boss, I found a treasure!" Dyze said to the boss.”Then, Dyze handed Li Xuan's video to the boss. After the boss saw it, he used the computer to play it in confusion.
After watching Li Xuan's video, the Motown boss asked Dyze,"Where is this person?"
"At Mike's Dream Manor, and this child has also been acknowledged by Mike as his student," said Dice.”
The boss immediately asked in surprise,""Really?" Dyze nodded. The owner of Mocheng was a little happy. Ignoring Li Xuan's singing skills, just the gimmick of Mike's student was enough to make Li Xuan famous.
But then, the boss frowned and voiced his concerns." But this child is from China after all. The United States might not recognize such a singer.”Although the purpose of Motown Records was to break racial discrimination, and most of the signed artists in Motown were black, these were real Americans, so it was still very easy for the country to accept them. However, Li Xuan could not guarantee it.
At this moment, Dyze smiled and said,"Boss. First of all, you have to see how much profit Sun can bring us. His singing skills are enough. As far as I know, he has other skills. It's definitely worth signing him. Also, Boss, don't forget that Sun is from China. This way, we can open up China's market. That's a superpower with a population of 1.3 billion! I think China's market alone is enough to sign Sun.”
The Motown boss's eyes lit up when he heard Deese's words. He knew that this situation was definitely worth it. After all, Yao Ming was at the height of his power in the NBA. Just this one person had driven the development of the NBA in China, and it was explosive. The NBA was earning a lot of money in China.
The boss said to Diss," We can sign Sun, but it won't be too long. We'll sign for two years first and then renew it. To show our sincerity, we can take less from the distribution of benefits.”
Dyze immediately said,""Alright, I'll go and draft the contract now.”After saying that, Dyze left. After Dyze left, the Motown boss watched Li Xuan's video again and then smiled in satisfaction.
At this moment, in Fantasy Manor, Mike was accompanying Li Xuan and Wang An on a tour. Although Wang An was friends with Mike, he had not seen the entire Fantasy Manor. The main reason was that this place was too big, and the amusement facilities inside were completely comparable to that of Orlando. Some places were even better than Orlando. The annual maintenance cost alone was already as high as five million dollars.
When Mike brought Li Xuan to the movie theater of Dream Manor, Li Xuan saw a tabletop piano. When Li Xuan saw it, he was excited. He went forward and gently stroked it, muttering,"Stanway! It's really a Stanway!"
Stanway was a piano production brand. In 1978, this brand was ranked first in the world's top ten piano brands, and now it was also ranked in the world's top ten piano brands. It could be said that this piano was Li Xuan's ultimate dream, and even now, he had not realized it.
When Mike saw Li Xuan's expression, he asked in confusion,"Sun, you know how to play the piano?" Wang An smiled and said,""Not only does he know how to play, but his piano skills are also at the palace level.”
This time, Mike was also shocked. At this moment, Li Xuan asked Mike,"Mike, can I play it?" There was still a lot of anticipation in Li Xuan's eyes.
