Chapter 241 Celebration Party

What is the most important factor?
music.

It can create a warm atmosphere, bring together unfamiliar and reserved people, stimulate guests' energy and interest, and create unforgettable happy memories.

Of course, the premise is that the music suits your taste.

There are hundreds of people, all kinds of people.How to choose just the right music for your guests who claim to be unique, extremely picky, and eccentric according to different times and venues is a complex knowledge that requires time to ponder and refine.

Just like you need a good lawyer to help you draft a divorce agreement, a good DJ is essential if you want to play good music that everyone will praise.

Han Music’s After Party features the most popular DJ in the world.

Not one, but a group.

At the party at Republic Records, the DJs are all from Up&Down nightclubs. They are good but not well-known.Coupled with the presence of an amateur like Joe Jonas who is both good and fun-loving, the overall music atmosphere is almost the same as that of an ordinary nightclub.

As for Jeremy Scott's party, more attention was paid to the decoration display and the clothing matching of each guest.After all, Moschino is a fashion brand, and visual pleasure is the most important thing.It’s not that he didn’t put much thought into the music, he just didn’t spend much. Jeremy Scott asked Made Event, the organizer of Electric Zoo, a large electronic music festival in New York, for help and booked some local DJs that fit the brand’s tone to play Techno on site. and Tech House.

In 2016, no more than in 2023 after the epidemic, Techno music is far from mainstream in the United States, and the music genre itself has not yet developed enough popular characteristics to attract a wide audience, such as Anyma, ARTBAT and Space Motion. The representative artists either haven’t debuted yet or haven’t become famous yet.

Therefore, although the music of Jeremy Scott After Party is very stylish and fits well with the consumption scene of Moschino flagship store, it still inevitably makes people feel...a bit boring.

So, what about the After Party held by Han Music?
From the perspective of planners alone, One57’s penthouse party is much better than its competitors.In terms of live music, Han Yi was completely in charge of Diplo. Diplo, a partner of Mad Decent and currently one of the top five electronic music stars in the world, selected the guests for the night.

If nothing else, Diplo only needs to put his and Major Lazer's names on the performance schedule to declare victory. The quality of the sets may vary greatly, but the competition is still about the number of fans, and the total number of plays. All the DJs at Republic Records and Jeremy Scott's party combined can't beat Diplo by a little finger.

When it comes to playing music, would you rather watch a grassroots DJ who lives next door to your apartment, works during the day, and plays DJs part-time at night, or the creator of Spotify's historical play record?
The answer speaks for itself.

The icing on the cake is that when the company was founded, Han Yi attached great importance to the layout of the electronic music sector.In fact, Han Music initially made a name for itself in the industry by acquiring a majority stake in Mad Decent worth US$3600 million.

After acquiring Diplo and the master tape copyrights he controlled, relying on the other party's deep foundation and strong influence in the electronic music circle, Han Yi struck out everywhere, using Mad Decent as a platform, and signed a number of internationally renowned top [-] DJs in the world. , or a potential stock that will become one of the top [-] DJs in the world in the future.

Nicky Romero, Jonas Blue, Marshmello, Lost Frequencies, Cheat Codes, Grey, these electronic music producers will definitely become more and more popular as time goes by. They are the indispensable core engines of Han Music and Han Publishing.Only by relying on their continuous output can the music empire built by Han Yi be able to purchase and replenish the ammunition arsenal while having a stable internal hematopoietic mechanism to provide support in both directions, forming a healthy and sustainable ecological chain.

The performer is the body and the producer is flesh and blood.Acting agents and live events do brains for siblings, record labels and copyright distribution.Han Yi, who is well-funded, has not left any strengths or weaknesses for his music business group from the beginning.

Every board is equally strong and equally strong.

Therefore, when competing for VMA invitations, Han Music does not treat them differently. Its three major groups, pop artists, hip-hop singers, and electronic music producers, are treated equally. As long as they are in the United States or there are no scheduled performances on the day, all arrangements will be made. Came to New York for the awards show.

The result of this operation is that almost no electronic music artists from the three major music groups attended.The Chainsmokers and Calvin Harris from Sony Music Columbia, Afrojack from Def Jam's "Summerthing!", that's it.No one was associated with Republic Records or was close friends with Jeremy Scott.

Therefore, when Horsch sent the live B2B event to Andrew from The Chainsmokers, within a quarter of an hour, the two set off from the hotel and arrived downstairs at One57.Later, Calvin Harris and Afrojack came one after another, and also brought along many friends such as John Newman, 6LACK, and Florence Welch.

This gave the Han Music After Party, which was originally more of an internal party, a bit more of a celebrity from outside the group.

With Diplo taking control of the situation, the music at the party was really on point. Mad Decent’s contracted DJs took turns to perform, including Electro House, Progressive House, Deep House, Drum n Bass, Dubstep, and even Hard Dance, Chill Out and Hip-Hop. Han Music’s electronic music producers fully demonstrated their vast ocean of Rich music library.

According to the atmosphere of the scene, under the premise of ensuring popularity to fit the VMA theme, various unexpected fresh drops were bombarded in turn, which kept the enthusiasm of the scene high and made the insiders who originally only planned to come to have some drinks feel itchy. .Diplo didn't need any effort to persuade. With a hook, Calvin Harris, The Chainsmokers and Afrojack were standing in front of the disc player.

Four CDJ-2000s, the second and third channels are the main ones, and the first and fourth channels are the backup. In the midst of laughter and laughter, the producers started a USB control war, competing to see who could perfectly catch the song with their own prepared tracks without any preparation. One man's music.

This kind of grand occasion, which cannot be seen even in Ultra and EDC and is worth a lot of money, is worthy of all the guests present taking out their mobile phones and recording it in the form of photos or videos.For a time, any user who paid a little attention to the European and American entertainment circles was flooded with the video of Han Music’s celebration party.

"Legendary B2B Legend."

This is a short video posted by Billie Eilish on Instagram Stories. Her number of followers has skyrocketed recently and she is quite active on social media, maintaining a rate of one or even several updates per day.

In the video, Billie yelled and rushed to the DJ booth off-screen, filming the tacit cooperation between Diplo and Calvin Harris.Although friends, the pair have never performed on the same stage together and never will in the future.Therefore, this scene in the same frame is extremely precious.

The music festival organizers couldn't even put together a combination for a million dollars, and it was just a sideshow in Han Music's celebration party.

"No way, are they DJing together?"

Leaning in front of the sink in the Up&Down bathroom, Hailey Baldwin pressed her thumb on the screen to freeze the video posted by Billie Eilish, and laughed out loud in surprise.

At the end of August 2016, Hailey Baldwin had not yet become the well-known Mrs. Bieber. She attended the VMA awards ceremony alone, and she was still the same person. No one knew what she had photographed, but the media always called her A so-called supermodel who is a fashion star.

"Who's DJing with whom?"

Taylor Hill asked casually while adjusting her hair.Compared with Hailey, her modeling resume is much more brilliant, and she has been a Victoria's Secret Angel since at least 2014.

"Diplo...and Calvin Harris." Hailey jumped out word by word, with an extremely obvious emphasis.

"Wow." Taylor Hill instantly stopped what he was doing. He still has the acumen of insider information in Hollywood. "So that thing is true...the person who said bad things about Taylor in front of Calvin. , it’s Diplo!”

The Taylor Hill is referring to is naturally not herself, but Taylor Swift, who broke up with Calvin Harris just two months ago and caused a storm in the city.

At first, both tried to deal with the end of the relationship in a low-key manner, but after the media revealed that Taylor used the pseudonym "Nils Sjoberg" to participate in "This Is What You Came For" and was confirmed by Taylor's public relations manager, Calvin- Harris fired off seven tweets.

"She's a great lyricist and is as successful as ever. But I feel hurt that she and her team have chosen to go to such lengths to damage my image at this time."

Calvin wrote.

"I think if you're happy with your new relationship, then you should focus on enjoying the moment instead of looking for opportunities to try to tear your ex to pieces. I know you just got off tour and desperately need someone new. Bury, like you did to Katie, but I'm not that person. Sorry, I won't allow it."

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, especially when Calvin Harris publicly mentioned the conflict between Taylor Swift and Katy Perry, which caused an uproar in Hollywood public opinion.

Diplo, who was originally out of reach of Taylor, was also involved in the controversy because he was Katie's boyfriend when they had a bad relationship with Taylor.According to gossip media speculation, Diplo tried his best to dissuade Calvin Harris from dating Taylor Swift and said a lot of bad things about Taylor.

"Then shall we go..."

Taylor-Hill drawled, the second half of the unspoken sentence self-explanatory.

"must go."

Hailey Baldwin is determined. She knows that although Taylor Hill cannot be considered a member of Taylor Swift's best friend group, like Barbara Palvin, she can talk to each other and play together. Friends.If she wants to enter that circle and get on Swift's supermodel bus, Hailey must find a topic that is enough to arouse the other person's interest.

What could be more exciting for Taylor Swift than an ex-boyfriend?
"I'm going to say hello to Ari and then rush over there right away...wait, where is this party coming from?"

"One57." Taylor-Hill replied, "Stella and the others have already taken the lead and arrived there."

“One57…”

After repeating this place name, which just sounded like money, Hailey Baldwin's eyes suddenly became hot.

"I didn't expect Chance the Rapper, Ty Dolla Sign and Flo Rida to come too."

Twenty minutes later, Hailey, who was huddled in the corner and observing carefully, sighed.

"It feels like most of the VMAs are here today."

"They will definitely come. Snoop is here. Any rapper who has no grudges will come and say hello." Stella Maxwell, who was whispering affectionately to Taylor Hill, is a girl who has seen big scenes. "I heard that Kim and Kan Yay is on the way too.”

"Aren't Jay-Z and Beyoncé coming too?"

"No." Stella denied decisively, "Jay has never invited Snoop to his Grammy After Party, nor the Roc Nation brunch before the ceremony. There is obviously no beef, but the two of them are strangers. Interesting...so that couple is definitely not coming."

"That's it."

Hailey nodded with a hint of admiration. Stella Maxwell, who was well-versed in both the fashion and entertainment circles, had always been the object of her envy, jealousy, and efforts to catch up.

"But it's already... grand. I've never heard of this company. I didn't expect so many people to be invited." Taylor-Hill used her eyes and fingers to pick out familiar faces in the crowd. , "Nick Jonas, Nicki Minaj, Heidi Klum, Michael Phelps, DJ Khaled, 2 Chainz..." "You haven't heard of Han Music?"

Hailey glanced at Taylor sideways and asked in surprise.

"Should I have listened?"

“It’s been very popular recently, ‘Cold Water’, Diplo, Madison Beer, they’re all from them.”

"Madison...this name is so familiar." Taylor-Hill put his index finger to his lips thoughtfully.

"Before, I was hanging out with Ariana and the others, the little singer signed by Scooter."

"Oh, her." Taylor raised his eyebrows, "Didn't I hear that she has been abandoned?"

"Isn't this picked up? It became the Billboard No. [-]." Hailey Baldwin's words had a hint of sourness. What she envied was not Madison's achievements, but that someone was willing to praise her. To this point.

At the age of 17, he won the Billboard No. [-] spot.

What Ariana Grande has not yet accomplished, Madison, who changed her career, accomplished it in less than half a year.

When will it be my turn for such a good thing?

"I don't know where this Han Music... came from, and why so many people are willing to hang around it."

"Because you are ridiculously rich." Stella Maxwell smiled, "Do you think this apartment is a rental venue? Who would rent out a penthouse apartment worth tens of millions of dollars to others for parties? This is Han Music The boss’s own house. And…I just found out his true identity from Monte today.”

"Whose true identity is it?" Taylor Hill asked curiously, "The boss of Han Music?"

"Uh-huh." Stella nodded slightly, put her hand over her mouth pretending to be mysterious, and lowered her voice, "Do you know which company he invested in a few months ago?"

"Which one?"

"UTA, ​​$1.9 million."

"What?!"

"Otherwise, why do you think DJ Khaled and 2 Chainz didn't go anywhere, just changed their clothes at the hotel and came here? Khaled likes to hang out so much... He is such a lively person, how could he not go to Rihanna under normal circumstances? Are they getting close? It's precisely because he knows the boss is here that he doesn't run around."

At this point, Stella touched Taylor's arm and motioned with her eyes for the two of them to move to DJ Khaled with her.

"See Central Park behind me?"

The huge DJ Khaled is broadcasting the life of a wealthy celebrity to the fans who, for some strange reason, pay attention to him.

"Have you seen the park? There is nothing better than the park. Praise the boss, bless up."

"What the hell is he talking about?" Taylor Hill frowned and almost laughed.

"That's what Khaled is like. He's so stupid to get attention, but he's actually very smart. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many singers willing to collaborate with him... I call him a music pimp." Stella Maxwell put her face next to Taylor Hill and Hayley Leigh Baldwin said in her ear, "But you should have heard his last words. The word "boss" can already explain everything."

"If what you said is true, then the founder of Han Music..." Hailey Baldwin rolled her eyes, took out her phone and started searching on Google.

"He has a net worth of at least 10 digits, if not higher." Stella added Hailey's unspoken words, "And he himself is no more than 30 years old. Sisters, Hollywood has not seen such a person for many years. Already? Single, billionaire, not too old to lose appetite.”

"George and Leon..."

"Oh, come on. You know I'm talking about the real billionaires who do their careers just for fun, not the beautiful skins who still need to make a living from their faces." Stella pointed out the error of her concept to Taylor, "Then Someone goes to Saint-Tropez to rent a mansion for the winter, and the former owns those mansions and the land under the mansion, that's the difference."

"You mean... Han Capital and Han Music are the former?" Haili quickly found the photo of Han Yi surrounded by Jeremy Zimmer and Douglas Le Pen.

"It can't be the case anymore. Think about it, even Monte Lipman, his boss, and his boss's boss can't find this person's background information." Stella Maxwell relaxed slightly His tone was, "How rich do you have to be to avoid Universal Music's radar, or in other words, so that Universal Music's radar doesn't dare to scan him?"

Stella Maxwell's conjecture is a bit exaggerated, but human beings are hopelessly fond of such legendary stories of hidden families and wealthy people off the list, both at home and abroad.Moreover, the speed and intensity of Han Yi's spending can also add credibility to this originally baseless anecdote.

Hundreds of millions of dollars can be invested in a casual investment, and money is flowing out continuously from capital groups such as Parkway and Carlyle. No one has been able to find the source of the money. What other reasons can be used to explain this situation?

It couldn't have fallen from the sky, could it?

"Is this person here today?"

"What, can't hold it anymore?" Stella teased.

"No, I'm just asking...out of curiosity."

He said this, but Hailey's eyes were already patrolling the salon area of ​​this apartment, looking for suspicious targets.

If Madison has it, doesn’t she have it too?

Madison can do it, but she can’t?

"Sometimes I'm so glad I'm not on the same track as you."

Although Taylor-Hill didn't speak, her eyes were wandering around uncontrollably. Once a woman's curiosity is aroused, it can become the most powerful driving force in the world.Stella Maxwell smiled and shook her head, pointing the direction for the two of them.

"See that man talking to Nick Jonas? There he is."

"It seems a little stronger... than in the photo."

Hailey Baldwin murmured to herself that she had no special interest in Asians. Growing up, this option had not appeared on her mate selection radar.

But fame and fortune have always been her first choice.

Fame and wealth are the best filters.

Yellow, white, black, a set of filters, all golden.

"Since you saw it, go and say hello. It's really rude to attend a party and not say hello to the host."

Stella Maxwell turned sideways to make way for the two girls.

"Go ahead and remember to play fair, sisters."

"you first?"

Hailey Baldwin turned to look at Taylor Hill, her eyes filled with excitement.

"you first."

Taylor Hill pursed his lips and smiled, no need to say anything more.Two people who ultimately pursue the same goal can sign a gentleman's agreement with just one look.

Help each other to raise their status, spare no effort to show themselves, do everything they can to win over the target, and accept the reality with a calm mind.

Except for the last point, Hailey Baldwin and Taylor Hill, who were walking towards Han Yi, as well as the celebrities and beauties scattered throughout the scene with the same calculation, were fully mentally prepared.

"Hi."

"Nice to meet you."

"You are...the founder of Han Music, right?"
