Chapter 49 The trembling pain in her palms made her frown, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
An Ran tried hard to control her emotions and wanted to escape from here, but knew that she couldn't yet.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Mrs. An and An Tu to lead a foreigner wearing a gray suit, brown hair, handsome three-dimensional features, and an unfamiliar-looking young man over.
An Ran stood up from the piano and walked to the Antu couple and the two men.
The foreign man looked to be in his early thirties, had a pair of beautiful chocolate-colored eyes, and had a strong scent of perfume, which was not unpleasant.
The other young man is not tall, only about meters tall. He has an Asian appearance and looks a little older than the brown-haired foreigner.
"An Ran, this is Mr. Joseph, the A&R responsible for signing musicians at Universal Records. Next to him is his assistant Mr. Toku." Mrs. An introduced with an elegant smile, "Joseph, this is my daughter, An Ran. "
After hearing Mrs. An's introduction, An Ran knew that the short young man was Japanese.
The foreign man named Joseph was looking at An Ran unblinkingly with his warm chocolate-colored eyes, full of admiration and amazement.
"I'm sorry, I couldn't help but notice you, you look so beautiful today."
Enron knows the abbreviation of A&R, Artists and Repertoire. They are responsible for discovering and exploring potential musical talents, signing contracts with them and promoting their music works.
A&R personnel play a very important role in the music industry. They need to have an in-depth understanding of music market trends and be able to discover and cultivate artists with creative and unique musical talents.
"Thank you!"
When the other party heard her answer in English, the expression on her face became more and more animated, "You have a natural charm that is simply irresistible. Your presence brightens up the whole room."
"Thank you again for your lovely compliment." An Ran endured the pain and looked at Joseph with a smile.
Seeing that Joseph praised An Ran so highly, Mrs. An was filled with excitement and expectation, and her expression was confident and proud.
She pointed to Joseph a seating area with a sofa, "Joseph, it's quieter over there. Let's go there and chat."
Joseph happily followed Mrs. An to the rest area and sat down.
After sitting down, Joseph looked at An Ran intently and expressed his appreciation for her musical talent and potential, "Your music is really refreshing. You have a unique music style and talent. We admire your work very much. And hope to cooperate with you.”
An Ran felt Joseph's recognition and appreciation, and a face as smooth as jade showed surprise, "Thank you very much for your recognition and support of me. I have always had a firm passion and pursuit of music."
Even if she doesn't want to release an album now, there's no need to offend people at this time. Who knows what she will encounter in the future, and will this road in front of her be another way to survive? Joseph smiled and nodded, "We believe in your potential and talent, and we are willing to sign a contract with you for a Chopin album. We will provide the best resources and support to help you develop and promote your music."
"I very much hope to bring my music to a wider stage through cooperation with you. This is the result of my many years of hard work. I will make every effort to create the best music that will move everyone. ." An Ran's face showed deep surprise, but soon became nervous and embarrassed, "I wonder if you have ever heard such a sentence?"
"What?"
"Love is not a game, it is firm and honest."
The expression on Joseph's face became even more moved, "Beautiful girl, what can I do for you?" An Ran's clear eyes revealed a touch of sadness, "After I won the award, many people suddenly wanted to listen to my performance. , I'm afraid that I will become the target of public criticism, which makes me feel a lot of burden. Before that, I have to be as physically and mentally prepared as possible."
"Of course! The first Chopin album must have the most substantial tracks." Joseph really had great expectations for An Ran, and he expressed his understanding of her generously without thinking about it for long, " I believe you will do a great job. We will arrange a professional team and producers for you to ensure the quality and success of the album, and you just have to do your job well."
"No matter how long?" As if because of the support and encouragement from Joseph, An Ran instantly became happy and smiled slyly at him.
When a girl as beautiful as a doll acts like a baby, almost no man can stop her, and Joseph is no exception.
"No matter how long it takes."
He stood up excitedly and gave An Ran a warm hug, "Congratulations, welcome to the Universal Music family. We look forward to your album release and letting the world hear your voice."
An Ran also responded passionately, "I will definitely live up to your expectations of me!"
Mrs. An and An Tu saw this scene and smiled at each other.
They were very happy that Enron could sign a contract with Universal Music Group, and they also looked forward to Enron's further glory in the future.
However, everyone present that night didn't know that Joseph's short promise meant that he had been waiting for three years.
It wasn't until October 08 that An Ran entered the recording studio to record his first Chopin album.
……
After finalizing the contract, Mrs. An's heart dropped. When Joseph and An Ran were almost done talking, she guided him to meet other people.
An Tu did not follow her anymore, but walked one step behind An Ran and asked with concern, "Why is your forehead so sweaty? Are you nervous just now on stage?"
"Don't be nervous." An Ran instinctively wanted to stay away from Antu.
If it were before, she might have disguised herself to win his support for her in this family, but now she doesn't think so.
And she did hide further away from Antu and covered her nose, "Dad, have you drunk a lot of wine? You smell so bad. It smells terrible. Stay away from me."
An Tu's chubby face looked stiff, "It's just alcohol, how can it be as exaggerated as you said?"
"If you don't believe me, just breathe and smell it yourself. If I don't smoke you to death, I will take your surname!" An Ran rolled his eyes at An Tu in a very unflattering way.
An Tu also wanted to be shameless. Of course he couldn't do such an unseemly thing in public. He could only shut his mouth and criticize An Ran angrily, "You're a girl, don't do such indecent actions. It doesn't look good! Fortunately, your mother Not here, if she were here, you would be beaten again tonight."
"Hit me. It hurts even if I don't hit him." An Ran said angrily.
Seeing her like this, Antu came over and asked, "What's wrong? Who made you angry?" 1314 (End of this chapter)
