American Entertainment: Taylor Swift wrote a song for the beginning

Chapter 174 New gathering, old friends (please subscribe)
"Why did they start fighting again?"

"Isn't it because of Ryan again?"

"Aren't they both engaged?"

"Yeah, what on earth is this grain of wheat thinking?"

The onlookers were standing not far away, whispering to each other.

"You must explain it clearly today!" Taylor was pressed against the grain of wheat and got a little anxious. Just like last time, he raised his hand to hit.

Ryan reached out and grabbed Taylor at this time. Unlike the last private gathering, this was the backstage of the Grammys. If the dispute escalated into a fight, it would definitely not be good for Taylor.

"Let go!" Taylor shouted in a low voice in desperation.

After a moment of stalemate, Mai Li seized the opportunity, rushed out, and fled the scene without saying a word. Her team members also came to help.

"Okay, that's enough. Now let's go find the relevant people and explain the situation." Ryan whispered to Taylor.

Taylor then put his hand down, turned around, and went straight to the assistant director with Ryan.

"I will never perform with Mai Li!" Taylor cried as she talked about what happened: "I went to the bathroom and she took Ryan to the small room again."

As for Ryan, he was very quiet and let Taylor perform the whole show. At this time, if he spoke, it would only add fuel to the fire.

The assistant director looked at Ryan.

"I held the bottom line!" Ryan nodded immediately. As a time-tested fighter, of course he had a bottom line, but it was more flexible.

Seeing Taylor getting more and more excited, the assistant director felt a little sorry for him, so he took the two of them to find the director again.

After understanding what happened, the director seemed helpless and finally looked at the producer sitting next to him.

"The order and time of the performances, including the guests, are strictly controlled, accurate to the second. They cannot be changed at will by anyone." Producer Kenneth Ehrlich frowned immediately after learning of Taylor's request.

"How about I ask her to come over and apologize to you again? Maybe this is just a misunderstanding." The director also spoke at this time, still wanting Taylor to let it go.

Seeing that the matter was about to be brushed aside, Ryan immediately spoke up with a heavy expression: "This is also my fault. I didn't keep the proper distance from Mai Li. She took the initiative to find me to discuss cooperation and even asked me to step aside to talk. That's why what happened later..."

Ryan's words confirmed Mai Li's behavior and added fuel to the fire. Taylor even burst into tears.

This left the assistant director, director, and producer all at a loss as to what to do.

"If you need to make adjustments for personal reasons, that's not impossible, but you have to know that if you change one thing, the others will have to change, and it may eventually cause you to lose performance opportunities." Kenneth Ehrlich went on to remind, which was considered to be a businesslike approach.

Taylor immediately mentioned the response technique Ryan had taught him: "Anyway, I really can't perform on stage with Mai Li again."

"Then we'll discuss it further and let you know the result within a few days," said Kenneth Ehrlich.

·
"Why didn't you let me do it? Did you feel bad when I hit her?" Taylor and Ryan talked about this matter gloomily on the way back to the hotel.

Still thinking about this?
"If I really let you do it, Kenneth Ehrlich will definitely not let you perform on stage this year," Ryan reminded.

"She pinched me first, look." Taylor pulled down his collar to show Ryan that there was actually no scar.

"I'll pinch it back for you."

"How dare you!" Taylor muttered.

"You must never protect her from now on!"

"No problem. I will never stop you in private. I will also help you hold her hands so that you can do whatever you want." Ryan said.

"You can't have any contact with her either!"

"I can never work with her in my life!"

Taylor made a few more requests.

"Why should I cooperate with her? She has an unpleasant voice, is not pretty, and has all bad habits." Ryan nodded repeatedly.

"That's more like it!" Taylor smiled again.

Backstage, the producer and two directors were discussing about this matter.

"It's understandable that Taylor doesn't want to work with her. Mai Li has done this more than once." "What about the revisions?" producer Kenneth Ehrlich then asked the two directors.

"In the original performance plan, Mai Li was just a temporary guest appearance. 'Fifteen' is Taylor's own song. However, if Taylor sang it solo, the theme of friendship of the song would not be highlighted. I think we should let Taylor change the song." said the assistant director.

"Or, we can find a new partner for Taylor temporarily." The director followed.

"If we want to highlight the theme of friendship, we need someone who is about the same age as Taylor. Where can we find such a new collaborator at this time?" The assistant director seemed helpless.

Kenneth Ehrlich thought for a moment and said, "Let's see if we can find a new partner. If that doesn't work, let Taylor change the song."

·
As the Grammy Awards draws closer, Taylor seems a little nervous.

"Why is there still no news?" This sentence came out of her mouth more and more.

"Maybe they are discussing it," Ryan said, closing his computer. The production of the new song "Weekend Hymn" was already halfway through.

"How about I ask Scott to help you?" Ryan tried.

Scott had previously taken the initiative to use the connections of his old colleagues to do public relations for Ryan's award, and he has been very busy during this period.

Taylor nodded.

About an hour later, Ryan received a response from Scott.

"The assistant director said that the director is looking for your new partner, but there is not much time left. You have to try to prepare a new performance repertoire." Ryan said.

"Great!" Taylor jumped up excitedly immediately. The plan Ryan mentioned before had obviously succeeded.

"Just sing Superman and I want to confess my love to you on the spot!" Taylor touched Ryan's cheek.

As long as this song is sung, it is enough to sweep away the outside world's doubts about the difficulties in their relationship and the shadow of conspiracy theories.

In the next few days, Taylor began to prepare new songs and contacted Nathan Chapman to start a new arrangement, with a style that leaned towards country music versions of other songs in Fearless.

·
"Taylor, we both received an invitation. Clive Davidson is holding a private party to celebrate the Grammy Awards tomorrow night." After Ryan finished the call with Scott, he turned to Taylor and said.

"Who's invited?" Taylor came over with a facial mask on his face.

"Almost everyone, every artist attending the Grammys, including several record industry executives in Los Angeles," Ryan said.

The Grammy Awards is an annual industry event that not only has a post-party, but also a "pre-party".

"I'm not really interested, so why not not go?" Taylor thought for a moment. She didn't really like this kind of occasion. It was boring. Besides, she became famous more because of her creative ability rather than her connections with the bigwigs. She didn't want to be like a politician, welcoming and seeing off guests.

"But I think you have to go, Ryan," Tyler tried.

"Aren't you afraid that I won't come home all night? I have to remind you that Mai Li might also be there." Ryan said casually.

"Then I'll go! What time tomorrow? I'll get dressed in advance." Taylor immediately changed his mind.

·
"Who is Clive Davidson? Do you know?" In the car, Taylor closed the makeup mirror.

“He’s a well-known producer, A&R manager, record company executive, and just took over as Chief Creative Officer of Sony Music Group this year,” Ryan said.

Clive Davidson is no ordinary person, half a level higher than Jimmy and LA Reed.

"Aerosmith, Pink Floyd, Whitney Houston, Gunslinger, Westlife were all discovered by him, as well as many top rock bands in the 1960s and 1970s. He is known as the 'Golden Ear'. You have also heard of his current flagship female singer - Leona Lewis!"

Leona Lewis's promotion in the US market is handled by J Records, owned by Clive Davidson.

"In that case, Leona and Simon will also be here tonight? That's great, you can continue talking to her about the cooperation." Taylor nodded.

Ryan and Taylor arrived at the party venue, which is Clive Davidson's private residence. It is as luxurious as a classical palace and can accommodate all the guests attending tonight.

The person responsible for welcoming Ryan and Taylor was somewhat unexpected.

"Mr. Rivers and Mrs. Rivers, welcome," Scout said with a smile.

　Dear godfathers, there are only two chapters today. I didn't write yesterday. Sometimes the only thing I can do is to comfort others. I can't do anything else. I will still reply to criticism later. Thirteen chapters of the leader, plus the monthly ticket of 500-900 last month, plus one less chapter today, a total of nineteen chapters, minus the 7 chapters I have already updated, there are still 12 chapters to owe, I will resume tomorrow, at least 4 chapters.
