The Best Actor in the Vase of Meiyu

Chapter 1465 The Sound of Mi Mi
Amid the hustle and bustle of attention, Anson and his three companions re-entered the elevator. Those burning eyes watched reluctantly as the elevator door slowly closed.

Even before the elevator door was completely closed, leaving only a gap, the eyes of the entire floor were once again focused on Mike Donovan's office.

The assistant reappeared at the office door with a dazed look on his face, as if he had just experienced a storm and his soul was left in the chaos, unable to return for the time being. Only a body staggered towards his seat according to body instinct, but before he could sit down, he was surrounded by rustling sounds.

"Hey, hey! What's going on?"

"Anson? Is that really Anson?"

"I've never met Anson in person."

"In the end what happened?"

"Did we get Anson's contract?"

"Solo album, what does that mean? Is Anson planning to release a solo album?"

Chirping and noisy.

Not only the thirty-seven floors, but the entire Warner Records was paying attention to this matter; and not long after, Universal Music also heard about it.

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

One small detail can show that Anson is no longer the same as before, and he still has a strong influence even in the record industry.

Even Anson himself did not expect that a random action this morning would set off a storm centered in New York, spreading across North America. In a short period of time, even Los Angeles' attention was focused on him. Things had already gone off track.

Anson Wood renews contract with Warner Records and prepares to release a solo album?
So what about August 31st? What happened between Anson and the band? Is Anson going to continue his solo music career?

What about the actors? Does the establishment of Forest Pictures mean that Anson is ready to fully switch to the field of film production? Does it mean that this is a signal of Anson's full expansion?

The amount of information is too much to digest all at once.

The discussion simply couldn't stop.

The vast world outside is like this, and it is also like this in the small, intimate space of the vocal room, shocking and causing huge waves.

To be honest, Mike and Dustin were prepared for this.

Anson may change his personal musical style.

The reason is not complicated.

If Anson continued to stick to his original musical style, he could have continued with the band August 31st.

Because Miles and his band were planning to continue the style of August 31st and integrate classical instruments into rock music. The impact of changing a lead singer and a songwriter on August 31st would be immeasurable. There was no need for them to make such a fuss, especially since they had not fallen out.

The disbandment was entirely due to differences in musical concepts, and each group embarked on their own paths of exploration.

In the music world, bands' parting ways are often covered up in official press releases with universal excuses such as "differences in musical concepts." The real reasons behind this are only known by the band members themselves, and even the record companies are not quite sure.

But this is indeed the case with the band on August 31st.

To this end, Mike and Dustin have reached a consensus that the focus is not on Anson's change, but on how and where Anson will change?

To be precise, Dustin was not worried. Not only was he not worried, but he was also looking forward to it. In the process of cooperation between Anson and Miles, amazing inspirations such as "Wake Me Up", "Long Live Life", "Another Light" and so on were born. It is not just about simply integrating the cello into the performance, but more importantly, it is about showing the charm of the instrument and making the instrument the protagonist of rock music.

Retro and trendy.

Shocks and impacts, layer upon layer, come at you.

Dustin has confidence in Anson and is full of expectations.

However, things were not that simple. Although Mike and Dustin claimed to be mentally prepared, the actual situation was completely unexpected.

This seems to be beyond the scope.

After playing "All-I-Want" and "Be-The-Song", Anson took his hands off the black and white keys of the piano and turned to look at Mike and Dustin in front of him. He could see the panic and astonishment on their faces at a glance.

Anson, however, was not surprised.

From the rock and roll of the August 31st band era to a completely new musical style, this is not just a 90-degree turn, but a 180-degree drift. You can imagine the impact of Mike and Dustin with your toes.

In 2002, Norah Jones emerged with the album "Away", which not only swept the four major Grammy awards, but also triggered a phenomenal market effect, reawakening people's attention and love for jazz.

In 2004, Norah Jones released her second album "Like Home", which turned to a country style, causing an uproar and shocking the entire market.

Of course, "Like Home" is not 100% country style, but a mixture of jazz and pop country style, but it still shocked everyone.

Nora said in an interview that the Jazz's success was an accident and a coincidence.

In fact, she never considered herself a jazz singer. The success of "Fly Away" far exceeded her expectations and imagination. She is still exploring music and believes that she is closer to the pop style. She will continue to explore the music path and does not want to be trapped by the jazz label.

It's not just Nora. Many years later, when Taylor Swift switched from country to pop, the entire industry was full of complaints and criticisms, and the scolding was overwhelming. The situation was the same.

Now, Anson has prepared himself mentally. It's the same as an actor. A vase suddenly decides to challenge his acting skills, or an actor in independent art films suddenly decides to star in a popcorn movie. When people try to break labels and constraints, the accompanying strangeness will cause controversy.

So, Anson didn't rush to explain himself, but let the music speak. After the performance, he gave up the space and waited for Mike and Dustin to express their true thoughts.

After all, while waiting for the music to actually come out, the situation they need to face may be more serious, and it will not be as simple as just two people.

Mike noticed Anson's gaze. He looked at Dustin, trying to urge Dustin to speak first, but found that Dustin was completely stunned. He couldn't help but have a headache and his temples began to throb. He had to force himself to speak. He just opened his mouth, but his mind was blank -

What should he say?

The words seemed to be rolling around in my throat, but no sound came out and I couldn't form any words.

In the end, it was Dustin who was the first to get rid of his shock and confusion, and without thinking, the words came out of his mouth reflexively.

"……ballad?"

Dustin was completely unable to conceal his surprise, and his voice rose at the end.

Anson didn't think it was a simple ballad, but he didn't deny or confirm it. Instead, he looked at Dustin and encouraged him to continue.

Dustin took a deep breath and said, "Anson, are you really going to sing these lascivious songs?"
