Entertainment: Start with a gold medal supporting role

Chapter 358 Music Knows No Borders!
"Country type songs?"

The meeting room of Big Machine Records.

The planning department, marketing department, and the company's vice chairman are all there.

At this time, their eyes were all on Taylor Swift.

Just now, they listened to the single "Love Story" recorded by Taylor Swift, and they looked at Taylor Swift with doubts in their eyes.

"Twife, I hope you don't decide to release this "Love Story" or even take it as an award-winning work."

"Yeah, Taylor Swift, country music is not a good genre when pop music is booming."

"And if you're going to win awards, I don't think the country genre is going to work."

"The most important thing is that the songwriter turned out to be a native of the Xia Kingdom. This will definitely not work."

"Your fans won't buy it either."

Hearing what they said, Mio Miao looked serious: "I really want to regard this song "Love Story" as an award-winning song. After the MV is shot, my plan is to focus on releasing it."

As soon as the words came out, everyone kept shaking their heads.

"Taylor, you need to know what mainstream is. Although there are some country music in the current music market, compared with pop music, it is obviously too small."

"Taylor, I hope you can think about it clearly. Although this song "Love Story" is very good, it is not considered a popular genre after all. It will be very difficult to win an award."

"Yes, as the head of the marketing department, I still suggest that you reconsider and choose pop music."

"Also, although this songwriter is well-known in the Xia Kingdom, don't forget, Taylor Swift, your music is sold all over the world, and the Xia Kingdom's songwriter is only average in the world."

"And to take a step back, even if your fans have no complaints about this songwriter, it will inevitably arouse some speculation from the outside world. Why didn't Taylor Swift choose a songwriter in the company instead of a person from the Xia Kingdom?"

When the words came, Taylor Swift continued: "It is because most of the current music market is pop music, which means that if you still choose pop music, it will be more difficult to win awards."

"In this case, why not choose a relatively unpopular country music?"

"Furthermore, no matter what genre, isn't it all about the quality of a song? What does it have to do with the genre?"

"As for the songwriters, don't you know the talents of the Xia people? Could it be that Xia's 5000-year culture is fake? Why can't the Xia people write lyrics for me?"

"Since when does music have national boundaries? Isn't it better to choose better ones?"

When Taylor Swift's words fell, the vice chairman of Big Machine Records spoke.

"I don't agree with the release of "Love Story" as an award-winning single. If you insist on releasing it, I suggest it be just one of the album."

Taylor Swift didn't respond, but the determination on her face represented everything.

Seeing this, the vice chairman continued: "I know that every creation you make now is for the Grammy Awards."

"But I also hope that you can understand that you can think about it from our standpoint. For us, whether you can win an award is secondary. The main thing is how much benefit you can bring to the company."

"After all, there are so many people in the company, is it because you want to win the prize that you give up the income?"

"To put it bluntly, the company has poured a lot of resources into you. If it can't bring you monetary benefits, how will the company's resources to cultivate you be rewarded?"

"I understand your thoughts very well, but please also think about it, we are a company, and there are many singers in the company, not just yourself."

After the vice chairman's words fell, the entire conference room fell silent instantly.

The meaning of what he said is very clear. No matter what Taylor's thoughts are, as the vice chairman of a company, he must put the company's interests first.

As for the so-called Grammy Music Award, it is just icing on the cake. It would be better if it was there, and it would be gone without it.

At the same time, everyone understands the meaning of the last sentence of the vice chairman, that is, if the company can cultivate a Taylor, it can also cultivate a second Taylor and a third Taylor.

When everyone is silent, Taylor Swift will definitely not be silent.

Taylor Swift looked directly at the vice chairman and said, "According to what you said, if "Love Story" wins an award, wouldn't the benefits be higher?"

"A single that won a Grammy Award, I think it's going to be a big hit."

The vice chairman shook his head: "What you said is what if, in my opinion, the chance of winning the song "Love Story" is very small, very small."

"Although the rewards are higher after winning, I will say that this is a gamble, and I would not choose to gamble."

The vice chairman paused and continued: "Of course, if you insist on releasing it, you must agree to one condition."

When Taylor Swift heard it, she said directly without any hesitation, "Say it."

"You have to release an album with at least ten songs within two months of releasing Love Story."

"hiss!"

The sound of gasping for air continued to be heard throughout the meeting room.

Ten songs in two months. If you add "Love Story", it will be eleven. Although it doesn't sound like much, it is ten songs that need to be recorded and arranged one by one, and I even have to participate in writing lyrics. song.

Normally, it takes at least half a year to prepare an album, but now Taylor Swift is required to complete it within two months, how could they not be shocked.

They also understood that this was clearly intended to deliberately create difficulties for Taylor Swift to let him give up "Love Story".

However, compared to their shock, Taylor Swift nodded: "I will do it."

As he spoke, he got up and left directly.

When he left, the voice of the vice chairman came again.

"I hope you can understand that the ten songs I'm talking about are the normal ten songs, not the ones you recorded to fool the number."

The voice came into Mildew's ears, and Mildew turned around and looked at the vice chairman with a serious expression on his face: "Please rest assured about this."

"Music is life to me, and I won't fool around with my life."

After saying a word, Taylor Swift left.

As soon as he walked out of the conference room, the managers surrounded him and asked with worried faces.

"Did they disagree?"

Mildew slightly nodded.

The agent sighed: "Oh, I knew it."

"But having said that, this song "Love Story" is really nice, but I think it should be put on your album."

"Taylor Taylor, it's not that I don't believe in you, it's mainly because the current music market is like this."

After hearing the words, Meimei nodded again and said nothing.

"Buzz."

The phone vibrated.

Taylor Swift glanced at the information on her phone, and a smile appeared on her pretty face.

"he came."
