China Entertainment 1997

Chapter 311 Evolution from Diamond King Lao Wu to Tang Monk Meat that Everyone Covets

26-year-old Cao Xuan was sitting in the first-class seat on the flight back to China. However, there were no female students returning from studying abroad opposite him. Instead, there were one after another flight attendants.

One moment, he would send a blanket, another moment he would ask about lunch, another moment he would ask if he was thirsty or if he had something to drink, and another moment he would ask what services he needed.

The little green lights coming out of the stewardess's eyes made Cao Daguan, who was not afraid of even the Colombian brothers, feel a little scared.

"Ahem, can you give me a domestic magazine or newspaper? I want to read the news."

Cao Xuan really couldn't stand the feeling that Tang Monk had entered the Pansi Cave, so he asked for a magazine as an excuse, mainly to remind the stewardesses that it was almost done.

"Okay, Mr. Cao, do you need entertainment news, sports news, financial news or social news..."

A flight attendant with an oval face squatted gently in front of Cao Xuan, outlining a perfect curve just right, with a gentle tone and a friendly smile.

It's a pity that Cao Daguan has seen so many beauties that he doesn't pay attention to this temptation at all.

"Entertainment news is fine, preferably domestic news."

"Okay, please wait a moment."

The flight attendant left disappointed. Not long after, another sweet-looking flight attendant handed two magazines to Cao Xuan.

"Mr. Cao, the magazine you want."

"Thanks."

Cao Xuan nodded, took it and opened it, and found a piece of paper inside with a phone number and even an address. When he looked up, the stewardess looked at him with hot and expectant eyes.

"Thank you for your service. I think you know me. I'll give you an autograph."

Cao Xuan took out the signature pen he brought with him and directly wrote his signature and words of thanks.

His pen was unique, a bit like an oil-based marker, and his handwriting was thick and heavy. He directly covered the words written by the flight attendant, and then returned the note to the flight attendant.

The stewardess was quite frustrated, but she still thanked Cao Xuan for taking care of her face. At least she got an autograph.

After the stewardess left, Cao Xuan finally calmed down for a while, opened the magazine, and saw himself on the front page.

"Creating Billboard History, Cao Xuan Appears on the Cover of Time Magazine Again"

The picture is accompanied by the ranking of the Billboard Hot 100 singles list. The two songs that Cao Xuan ranked in the top ten are marked. Anyway, the content of the article shows that Cao Xuan is about to become a Chinese hero who conquered the European and American music circles.

To be honest, the praise made Cao Xuan blush a little, but he still felt quite happy. After all, everyone would be happy to hear good words about themselves.

The front page is of me, and the second page is also of him. It talks about the day before yesterday when he held a celebration party, certified a platinum record, and made a emphatically statement about Shakira.

However, what is not very ethical is that Shakira's boyfriend was present at the time, and the reporter deliberately ignored it when writing about it, deliberately setting up the scandal for Cao Xuan.

Cao Xuan was also used to these routines and was too lazy to care. He continued to scroll down, and his eyes lit up. He could finally eat other people's melons.

In early April, Xie Feng officially announced his breakup with Wang Fei, and Feng Fei-Zhi's love triangle became a top-notch incident in the entertainment industry.

This matter cannot just be viewed as a scandal. It contains many things. Since the end of March, it has been highly concerned by the Hong Kong media. Three top artists were brought in and staged a wave of public opinion carnival.

Behind this carnival, all three people were negatively affected to varying degrees.

Wang Fei was in love, and Zhang Baizhi was officially dragged into the love triangle. Fans from both sides were very angry, and they even continued to tear each other twenty years later.

The person who suffered the most negative impact was Xie Feng. Before this, he was a well-known Asian little king with strong momentum, so he was forced to keep a low profile for nearly a year, and his career development was also affected.

What's even worse is that when Xie Feng left, Cao Xuan was wreaking havoc in the American music scene.

When Xie Feng's accident happened at the end of March, Cao Xuan also began to prosper, and good news spread to the country day by day.

Comparing the two, it is difficult for everyone to connect them.

Obviously they are not much different in age, but they are also representatives of the new generation in the music world and even the entertainment industry. Previously, the Hong Kong media had always praised the so-called "Southern Xie Bei Cao".

But now it seems that one is full of troubles and scandals, while the other is famous overseas, making history and bringing disgrace to the entire entertainment industry.

Even if you are as cunning as the Hong Kong media, you have to admit this time that there is indeed a big distance between Cao Xuan and Xie Feng.

The people of Xiangjiang stick together to protect their weaknesses. At least the entertainment circle and Hong Kong media in Xiangjiang have always been supportive of Xie Feng and can make them bow their heads. This shows how much Cao Xuan's trip to the United States has shocked them.

In fact, from the day Cao Xuan's announcement on the Billboard Chart came back to China, Cao Xuan became the center of the entire Chinese music scene.

As his ranking went higher, good news continued to come from across the ocean, and the media began to follow up, creating a lot of publicity and momentum. The US Billboard chart also became a new knowledge point in 2002.

Many people who had never heard of bulletin boards a month ago now know the rules and conditions of bulletin boards by heart.

In this era when Americans are the best in the world, being able to conquer the European and American markets is definitely an extremely remarkable achievement for Chinese people who lack confidence.

They didn't care about anything else. They only watched Cao Xuan's ranking on the Billboard getting higher and higher. He became the first person in Chinese history, the first person in Asian history, sales in the United States exceeded 1 million, and he was listed in "Time Magazine" and became a recognized supernova. ………

Even Cao Xuan himself doesn't know how terrifying his reputation is now in the country. The national hero may be a bit exaggerated, but it's not much worse.

Ang Lee's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, directly defeating many famous directors such as Lao Mouzi and Director Chen.

Yao Ming was the No. 1 pick in the draft and entered the NBA, which led to the explosion of basketball in China and his influence is unparalleled.

Cheng Long became a superstar in Hollywood. His salary alone was more than the four kings combined, and he was officially designated as the "big brother".

So a singer who is the number one in the music industry has achieved great success in the European and American music circles. Just imagine how much praise and attention he has received.

Cao Xuan was almost put on the altar!

In fact, it can be seen from these flight attendants that Cao Xuan has not experienced being approached by flight attendants before, but this is the first time that the entire crew has taken turns to take care of him, so far as to directly throw him into his arms.

Not only because he is handsome and rich, but also because of the popularity of the American music scene, which has given him a halo of honor that brings glory to the country, and has doubled Cao Xuan's own charm.

It’s not that there are no rich people, handsome guys are not uncommon, and although there are few talented people, there are also some.

But when these qualities are combined, they can achieve brilliant achievements at home and abroad, with wealth, good looks, talent, fame, and honor all rolled into one.

It can be said that in the eyes of many women, capturing Cao Xuan is no longer just a favor. They don't care about the future, but come here for a sense of accomplishment.

My life has been worth sleeping with such a perfect man.

If you don’t understand this idea, gender reversal, a top pop diva with wide popularity in the world is also a super rich woman, and she is extremely beautiful. She is the dream goddess of countless men. If you can have the opportunity to kiss her and have in-depth communication , can you blow it for a lifetime...

Let's put it this way, if Cao Xuan was considered a top diamond king in the past, now he has somewhat evolved into Tang Monk meat.

Cao Daguan can be a groom every night by just licking his little finger and loosening his belt.

Looking at it this way, Cao Xuan felt that his moral standards were still very high. He didn't dare to be a role model, but he could still be regarded as a small pacesetter.

………

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, the plane landed at Beijing Airport. Cao Xuan was left by the flight attendant and the captain to take a group photo with all the maintenance staff.

Then, with the reluctant eyes of the stewardesses, he got off the plane with Zhu Jiang and Zhang Chong.

As a result, Cao Xuan was stopped by airport staff not long after he got off the plane.

"Sorry Mr. Cao, there are reporters and fans outside now. For your safety and airport order, please leave through the VIP channel."

"No, my trip is confidential."

Cao Xuan frowned, and the airport staff glanced at him and whispered a reminder secretly.

"Starting from about the 15th, media have been stationed at the airport. There are only a few flights from the United States to China every day. As long as you know the approximate time of your return, it is still easy to get stuck."

The airport staff pointed at Cao Xuan's face, which few Chinese people would not recognize.

As long as someone sees it before getting on the plane and makes an overseas phone call, they will get the news and come directly to block people.

If the news leaks out, given the professionalism of the reporters in the capital, it is estimated that half of the capital will soon know that Cao Xuan is returning to China.

Cao Xuan was a little speechless. Being famous sometimes makes you really non-stop.

In desperation, he could only leave with the airport staff, and on the way he asked if there was any private jet parking and maintenance business at the airport.

Airport staff were put on display.

Is this the arrogance of a big boss? After being blocked once, he is ready to buy a private jet?

Cao Xuan ignored the complaints from the airport staff and was really thinking about this issue.

In the past, when I was doing domestic activities and the distance was short, I didn't mind buying a private jet because it didn't cover the maintenance costs. But in the future, it's obvious that I will go abroad frequently, so having a private jet is relatively more convenient and safer.

As for money, Cao Xuan really doesn't pay much attention to it. Let's not talk about "Legend of Hot Blood", just this trip to the United States.

The income from all aspects has already reached several million US dollars. If the follow-up goes well, Cao Xuan's guaranteed income from the "Chris Tsao" EP alone will be more than 20 million US dollars.

The United States is very strict about all aspects of copyright. The income from the sale of a record is sometimes called royalties, and producers, creators, singers, agents, and distributors all have their own share ratios.

Although the singer's share is not high, usually between 10 and 20%, don't forget that Cao Xuan's songs are produced by himself, and the share of the creator + producer belongs to him. In total, Cao Xuan almost occupies Between 30~35%.

The rest belongs to the agent + publisher, that is, Warner. Of course, there are also recording costs and channel fees.

It is worth mentioning that this is only the income from the sale of the record. Cao Xuan himself still owns the copyright of the "Chris Tsao" song.

Copyright is different from royalties. Royalties are just the proceeds from the sale of this record, while copyright is the ownership of the song.

Cao Xuan is the copyright owner. Anyone who uses these three songs must pay copyright fees to Cao Xuan.

Of course, since this place is mainly operated by Warner, Cao Xuan has to give part of it to Warner as management fees.

But even so, this copyright fee is likely to exceed the royalty income of "Chris Tsao". After all, this is a long-term business. Even if Cao Xuan dies, his children can still receive money.

The above-mentioned US$20 million is only an estimated royalty and a small part of the copyright income. Warner will distribute the goods in South America and Europe in the future. If it explodes, the revenue is likely to increase.

This is one of Cao Xuan's motivations and purposes for buying a private jet. He is not trying to show off his wealth, but to make better money.

The European and American markets are so rich, so rich. The money earned from one EP is almost as much as the Stars trilogy.

Once the operation is done, Cao Xuan will release an English album and may directly build the Fanxing Company building. How could Cao Xuan not pay attention to it.

Compared with this, a mere private jet is nothing. Cao Xuan was so anxious that he bought two of them, one for driving and one for escort...
