Chapter 145 Examination

After receiving the invitation from MJ to perform, Link was very excited at first.

MJ is the king of pop music. He is the most accomplished and influential singer in the history of world pop music. He has more than one billion fans worldwide. Even when Britney, Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga, King Zhou and others were at their most popular, they could not compare. Fuck him.

Being invited by him to sing at his concert is more worthy of praise than winning the Grammy Award.

Just after making the phone call, he slowly calmed down again.

MJ invited him to the concert. The main purpose must be to calm the impact of this incident and mend the rift between his and Kanye's two fan groups, not because he sang well enough.

In addition, he remembered that MJ seemed to have passed away this year. He didn’t know the specific time or the reason. Even if he knew, there was nothing he could do. He was not a doctor and could not help him treat his illness.

If MJ passes away before the concert starts, this invitation will be a blank check and there is no need to get too excited.

Link opened Twitter and sent three words ‘Letitgo’ to let everything go.

After posting it, comments from fans came quickly, asking if there are no new songs?

Some people urged him to release new songs quickly. It has been two months since his last album, so it would be best to have a few more new songs like "Givemereason".

Before he could reply, Selena Gomez jumped out and replied: There is a song, and it was written by Link. It is a great song. I am practicing and will release a single in June. Please remember to support it.

Selena has become a little flower in the film industry after filming several Disney movies, and is very popular among teenagers.

Her fans asked her to learn Link and also make a singing video and post it on YouTube so that everyone can listen to the song.

After a while, Selena hung up a video link.

Link clicked on it and took a look. It was Selena sitting on the sofa, playing and singing while holding the guitar. She only sang two lines of the chorus: 'Letitgo, Letitgo, Idon\'tcarewhatthey\'regoingtosay, Letthestormrageon'.

Sounds nice and matches her voice.

Link left a message praising her for singing well.

Selena showed her heart and asked him online how he was preparing for the SAT exam. If you need other teaching materials, mail them to him immediately.

After Selena asked this question, the comment area of ​​the two exploded.

The big star Link is going to take the college entrance examination?

The world boxing champion also came to take the SAT exam?

Many people are asking him whether it is true or false.

There are also people who claim to have perfect SAT scores and can be tutored for free.

Link wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and wanted to knock Selina a few times. He signed up to take the SAT test because he wanted to experience the feeling of the college entrance examination and see how high his current cognitive level was.

In order to avoid failing in the exam, he kept a low profile and only told a few close people around him.

Now that Selena has exposed it, it will definitely be on the news tomorrow and everyone will know about it.

If you fail the exam, you will be embarrassed.

Ding dong~ding dong~

Selena sent several text messages to apologize, saying that she made a mistake and mistook her tweets for MSN.

Link sent a few emojis of banging her head, saying that he would beat her up when he went to New York.

Selena sent three cheering gestures, saying that she believed he would get a good grade in the exam.

Link knew that this girl would be laughing with her mouth open when she sent the message.

The matter has come to this, and there is no other way.

You can only spend more time on textbooks, read more books, and do more sets of test papers.

Yes, in order to prevent accidents, he bought several sets of SAT full simulation test questions from the Chinese training class and implemented the question-sea strategy.

He didn’t believe that he couldn’t get a good grade in the exam.

Ding dong dong!

There were too many things to do. As soon as I put down the phone, Miss Eva called me. “People say on the Internet that you are preparing for the SAT exam? Is it true?”

"Yes!"

Link said resignedly.

"Unbelievable! You are an Olympic champion, a world boxing champion, and a big singer, and you are preparing for the SAT exam like a middle school student? Many young people on the Internet say you are super cool and should learn from you. Congratulations, you have gained a lot of achievements. Teen fans.”

Miss Eva joked.

Link has no interest in teenage fans, "I'm doing real SAT practice tests, and you called me just to tease me?"

“Are you doing mock questions?!”

There was a snort from Miss Eva, and there was a moment of silence. Miss Eva coughed twice and said seriously, "Of course I have something to do with you. Guess how many thousands of copies of "The Fighter" were sold last week?"

“30,000?”

Since entering March, album sales have shown a downward trend.

He remembered that last week it was 48,000 copies, and the cumulative sales in the United States were 1.652 million.

"It's 218,000! The increase in the northern states was not big, only about 15%. The largest increase in more than ten states in the middle and south was more than 210%, quadrupling. According to estimates by Boston Data Consulting, through this incident, your The popularity in the United States has increased by nearly 25%, and many fans and boxing fans have directly become loyal fans.”

Ms. Eva said in a more encouraging voice.

Link didn’t quite understand the meaning of these two data.

“But people like Kanye throwing dirty water at me and calling me a racist will also cause me to lose some black fans.”

“You don’t have to worry about this. Every singer has his own market positioning, and only by accurate positioning can he make money.

Before this incident, most of the people who bought your album were under 30 years old, mostly white and Hispanic women. They liked your appearance and body more than your songs.

After this incident, the number of adult male fans increased sharply, and they were mainly white and Latino, so there is no need to pay too much attention to the missing part. No one can be liked by everyone, not even MJ. "

Miss Eva said.

Link has never been a singer before and doesn’t know much about these things. After listening to Eva’s explanation, he realized that fans can be divided into various types.

“Sounds good.”

"Of course it's good. One more thing. The first month's domestic and overseas dividends will arrive in the near future. It will be about more than 28 million US dollars. 20 million will be used for dividends. I plan to keep about 8 million to buy a recording studio and then What do you think about signing some new singers?”

"I agree!"

  If you want to build the Link Music label into a large-scale music company, it is not enough to rely on just one singer. It is best to select several new talents with potential.

Link thought that if he had time, he could hang out in bars more and maybe meet one or two future big stars.

“Well, finally, Mr. Link, how did you do on the mock test? Do you want me to explain the questions to you? I also took this exam back then.”

Miss Eva joked.

“Really? What’s your score? Take a photo of your transcript and take a look.”

Hunting! The call was hung up.

Link smiled lightly. The media reported that Miss Eva’s SAT score seemed to be 1080.

With a full score of 1600 points, this score can only be said to be average.
