American Entertainment: Taylor Swift wrote a song for the beginning

Chapter 14 Price
Taylor was pulling Abigail forward in the crowded dance floor when he suddenly felt his wrist being pulled and he staggered.

"Pretending not to see? Don't think I don't know the rules here?" The man in the floral shirt snorted coldly and grabbed Taylor's wrist and pulled him towards his seat.

The girl hired by the promoter tonight was also wearing a long dress similar to the two men, so their identities were mistaken.

Taylor screamed immediately, but she was so thin that she didn't have much strength.

How could Abigail allow her friend to be dragged away? However, she was in a dress and could not move at all. In desperation, she could only shout towards Ryan in the distance.

"Ryan! Come over here and help us!"

“Ryan!!”

However, the nightclub was already extremely noisy, and the lights were dim, so Ryan didn't hear Abigail's shouts at all. Finally, the security personnel in the nightclub noticed something unusual, and several people rushed over immediately. One of them happened to be next to Ryan. Ryan turned around and found that the woman who was grabbed looked familiar. Looking again, he found that the person wearing a green dress next to her was Abigail. Surprised, Ryan didn't dare to delay and walked over quickly.

The security guard seemed to know the man, and although he stopped him directly, he did not help Taylor break free.

Taylor had taken off her sunglasses and kept identifying herself, but in the chaotic situation, no one paid attention to what she said for a while.

Just when Taylor was feeling uneasy, a tall figure squeezed out of the crowd, raised his hand and pried open the hand that was holding his arm.

As a football player, Ryan's physique and strength can be said to be ruthlessly crushing compared to this middle-aged man who has been hollowed out by alcohol and sex.

Ryan then exerted force and directly bend the other person's fingers backwards. The middle-aged man felt pain and his back bent. At the same time, the middle-aged man's friends also rushed over. Ryan, the security guard and the middle-aged man were in a standoff and the situation became more and more chaotic.

When Taylor and Abigail saw that the person coming was Ryan, they immediately turned into fledglings and approached Ryan from the left and right. In this unfamiliar occasion, Ryan's strong physique could bring a lot of security to the two of them.

Ryan was not nervous at all. He had been stationed in the nightclub for half a month and had an average of one conflict every two days. He was already used to it.

The nightclub manager and the guard who was in charge of letting people in at the door also rushed over at this time. During the conversation, the identity of the middle-aged man was revealed. It turned out that he was the owner of a nearby Spanish restaurant. He brought his friends out tonight and had some friendship with the nightclub owner.

As the misunderstanding was resolved, the matter was about to come to an end.

But Taylor didn't want this matter to just let go.

"Did you see my face clearly?!" Taylor pointed at himself, looking unyielding.

Not to mention the nightclub manager, even the middle-aged man apologized to Taylor. Taylor was a celebrity after all, and it would not benefit anyone if he made a big fuss.

In the end, Ryan came forward and took Taylor and Abigail away.

"Why are you two here tonight?" Ryan began to ask at this time.

"We have booked flights for spring break and are going to Panama City first." Abigail talked about another thing.

Abigail invited Ryan many times during this period, and Ryan nodded, which was considered a formal agreement.

On the other side, although Taylor was still a little angry, he remembered that Ryan had just helped him out, so he said gloomily, "Thank you."

I forgive you for playing that song tonight without your permission, Taylor thought.

"By the way, your coat was left in my room last time. I'll bring it to you the day after tomorrow." Ryan suddenly said to Abigail.

"No problem." Abigail nodded and said it very naturally, unaware that Taylor next to her had his eyes widened and looked as if he had seen a ghost.

Taylor suppressed his strong premonition and showed concern on the surface: "By the way, I haven't seen you two for half a month, how are you two progressing?"

Abigail just threw Tyler a smile.

Just a smile made Taylor even more uneasy. He had no idea where to start with Abigail, so he turned to look at Ryan. "Ryan, take me back later." Taylor suddenly said mysteriously.

Ryan and Abigail looked at each other, then signaled with their eyes to the vehicle next to them. Taylor was driving tonight, and it was an automatic transmission.

Taylor wanted to say something, but she saw Ryan and Abigail had already turned and left. She kicked the tire angrily, and then tears came out of her eyes in pain.

"Taylor's reaction just now was so strange," Abigail looked out the window from the passenger seat of the Challenger.

Ryan couldn't help but complain in his mind: Didn't you take the initiative to distance yourself from me? I'm closer to your best friend, why are you in such a hurry?
"Maybe she feels that your presence prevents me from always being with her." Abigail sought an explanation.

Then Abigail talked about some of Taylor's past experiences. After signing with RCA, a subsidiary of Sony, the two sides did not really cooperate. In addition to not reaching an agreement on the release time, Taylor also hoped to get a creative environment without interference from anyone.

The former DreamWorks Records executive Scott was willing to give Taylor this absolute freedom, of course, this was also inseparable from the support of Taylor's father, the other Scott, behind the scenes. Taylor has the right to make the final decision on everything from the creative direction to the lyrics and even the MV shooting, which is different from most singers in their early careers.

"Then what is the price of this freedom?" Ryan suddenly asked, Taylor's experience might be of reference value to him.

"Then I don't know, but Taylor once complained that most of his professional singing career was tied up in a record contract. I think the contract term is more than ten years." Abigail tried.

Ryan was disappointed. Even she had to sign an extremely long contract, and her treatment would only be worse than hers.

A moment later, the challenger was outside Abigail's house.

Before getting out of the car, Abigail waved goodbye to Ryan.

"Then see you at the airport the day after tomorrow," said Abigail.

·
When Ryan got home, before he had time to change into slippers, he saw that Trea was still holding a bank bill in her hand. Ryan could delete the email, but he could not destroy the paper bill.

And before Terry even had the chance to get angry, she saw Ryan pull a small stack of bills out of his wallet and hand it over.

He explains all this to Trae and mentions that the money was earned by being a resident DJ.

This is only part of the total revenue, and paid download channels will bring in some other revenue, but this part is not as much as live performances. And all the revenue added up is far less than Ryan expected. In fact, this single did not make much splash.

"Are you sure you didn't sell drugs in school?" Terry obviously didn't believe it.

"Of course not." Ryan shook his head quickly, and pulled Terry to the study and asked her to put on headphones.

Terry asked many more questions before she was completely relieved.

"You know what, it's quite exciting." Terry nodded repeatedly and asked about Ryan's "work place".

Just after she left, Ryan realized that she had left the stack of money on the table. It was not so much that she forgot to take it, but rather that she had not intended to take it from the beginning.

Ryan didn't bother to be polite with her. He put the money back into his wallet and prepared to continue making electronic music as usual.

But not long after, Terry walked in again, holding her cell phone in her hand.

"Taylor Swift."

Ryan read her lips.

Ryan picked up the phone and answered it, and Taylor started to curse at him.

"You broke your promise, bastard! Who told you to touch Abigail..."
