[US Entertainment] Crossover superstar

After Jeffrey returned to Los Angeles after filming "The Chronicles of Narnia 1" in New Zealand, he immediately entered Pilgram School to continue his high school life.

However, during the period when Jeffrey was in school, he spent most of his time outside of school with Justin in the music room at home, screening songs, and these songs were followed by Jeffrey. Usher wrote it himself since he studied music.

After a period of careful selection and arrangement, Jeffrey has prepared five songs that he and Justin are more satisfied with, and these five songs are: "d/goodbye childhood", "her/with mother Peers", "d/friends", "younglove/Sentimental Love" and "growingpains/growth troubles".

Except for the first song which has the same name as the album name that Jeffrey thought in mind, the other four songs describe the relationship, friendship, love and growing up between "children-teenagers". trouble.

The reason why these few songs were selected from the many songs, Jeffrey also had his own considerations in mind.

Because Jeffrey feels that these songs can not only arouse the emotional resonance of his peers, but also the content of the songs is very suitable for his current age of fourteen or fifteen.

Although these five songs are far from enough to make up a whole album, Jeffrey has no choice but to wait until he signs a contract with the record company, and then ask the record company to help collect some demos.

Meanwhile, Ryan has not been idle during this time.

After accompanying Jeffrey to Disney and talking to Dick, Ryan was busy handling the daily company affairs in UTA United Elite Brokerage Company, and at the same time was busy introducing Jeffrey's personal information to Jeffrey. The tapes were sent to major record companies.

Of course, Ryan's first consideration was some record label companies under the Universal Music Group.

After all, Disney itself has some close ties with Universal Music Group, and if it weren't for Universal Music Group's Walt Disney Records, it would not be very suitable for Jeffrey's long-term development, and neither Jeffrey nor Ryan Will do this again.

Not long after, Ryan sent Jeffrey's profile introduction and audio tapes to polydor, mca, decca, philips, mercury, island, , motown, pe, dreamworks and a&m, etc. company.

At the same time, in case Jeffrey was rejected by Universal's record label company, Ryan also made a relatively thorough preparation. He also sent some Jeffrey's personal information and recordings to bmg (Bertelsmann), emi ( EMI), sony/cbs (Sony/Columbia) and wea (Time Warner), some of the record companies under the four major record groups that are as famous as the world.

After Jeffrey's personal information introduction and audio tapes were sent out, in less than half a month, more than a dozen record companies expressed interest in Jeffrey's person and singing voice, and tried to get along with Jeffrey. Li and Ryan had a detailed talk face to face.

However, Jeffrey and Ryan did not rush to make a decision, they still wanted to wait and see.

After more than a month, Ryan received a total of replies from 35 record companies, and these 35 record companies also belong to different record groups.

In the end, after Ryan had a serious discussion with Jeffrey and consulted Usher and Dick, Ryan went to Island Records again, but this time he did not bring Justin, It was Jeffrey.

In this way, although Jeffrey is not a signed artist under Universal Music Group, Jeffrey has signed a five-year record album contract with Kojima Records under Universal Music Group. All the albums in the album are produced and distributed by Kojima Records.

In fact, in Jeffrey's opinion, it doesn't matter which record company he signs with, as long as it allows him to make and release albums well.

However, after Jeffrey signed a record contract with Island Records, Ryan and Justin were very happy.

Justin is happy that Jeffrey will be in the same record company with him in the future, so the relationship between him and Jeffrey will be closer;

What Ryan was happy about was that Jeffrey and Justin were both signed to the same record company, the same record company and the same manager, so his future work would be easier.

"My love...everything..."

"........."

"I will love you..."

"........."

"..."

"........."

Hearing bursts of singing coming from the music room, Justin, who had been staying in the study doing his homework, immediately put down his pen and followed the singing to the music room.

"Jeff, what song are you listening to? Why does it seem that I have never seen you listen to it before..."

Justin found that neither of them had heard these songs that Jeffrey played before, and he looked at Jeffrey with a little curiosity in his heart.

Seeing Justin entering the room and talking to him, Jeffrey immediately lowered the volume of the song.

"Justin, you must have never heard these songs before! These are some demos that Ryan took from the island record company, but these demos all have lyrics and music, so I will listen to them first. After a while...the other demos are all individual words or songs, I haven't had time to listen to them one by one..."

Because the chairman and CEO of the Island Music Group, Antonio Reid, has a relatively close relationship with Usher, and Ryan has been acquainted with people from the Island Records Company when Justin signed with the Island Records Company before. stand up.

So after Jeffrey signed a record contract with Island Records, he was immediately taken care of by Island Records.

Therefore, when the upper management of Kojima Records learned that Jeffrey wanted to release a personal album and that he had already prepared several songs, Kojima Records immediately went to collect some demos for Jeffrey.

The demos that Jeffrey is listening to now are all specially collected by Xiaojima Records for him, and they are all songs, words or tunes that are more in line with the theme of 'd/goodbye childhood' in Jeffrey's mind.

What Xiaojima Records meant was to let Jeffrey listen to the collected demos first, and then let him choose the ones he was satisfied with, and then go to the company to have a meeting with the music producer to discuss.

"Demo? The company collected it for you? Jeff, are you going to release a single or album soon..."

After Justin heard Jeffrey's explanation, a look of envy immediately appeared on his face. He raised his head and blinked at Jeffrey.

Jeffrey smiled lightly and shook his head when he heard the words: "Justin, how can it be? How can you think so fast! I guess it will take a long time!"

Seeing the unconcealable envy on Justin's face, Jeffrey paused and said: "Justin, you have to work hard to learn from usher, and practice hard at home on weekdays! If this is the case, you will not pass How long will it take for you to make your debut, then we can sing together..."

"Really? Jeff, I can really make my debut? But, don't you all say that I am still young..."

Hearing Jeffrey say that he will debut soon, Justin's beautiful eyes lit up instantly.And when he heard Jeffrey say "we can sing together after debut", Justin showed a look of yearning on his face.

"Hahaha... Don't you know that you have to be famous as soon as possible? Your senior brother and I also started filming at the age of seven, of course you can debut earlier! However, if you want to debut, you have to be a teacher first, and you have to satisfy Usher first... ..."

Jeffrey smiled and touched Justin's head. He lowered his head and stared closely at Justin's eyes, raised his eyebrows and encouraged him with his eyes.

In his previous life, Justin Bieber was only discovered by his agent in 2008 and then cultivated by usher, and then he released his first solo album in 2009.

Now, Justin Bieber was discovered in 2004, more than four years earlier, and Justin has been studying under the guidance of usher for a long time.Although Justin is a little younger now, Jeffrey is certain that: Justin's debut time will definitely be much earlier than in his previous life!

Thinking about this in his heart, Jeffrey looked at Justin with softer eyes.

Afterwards, Jeffrey took Justin's hand and asked Justin to sit beside him, and asked Justin to help him listen to the demo samples collected by Xiaodao Records.

Songs sounded from time to time in the music room, while Jeffrey and Justin sat side by side and listened carefully to the words and melody of the song...

Amidst the sound of music, the tall and short figures sitting side by side looked extremely harmonious.
