Chapter 200 Ultra Music Festival Insider

"You left me alone in Los Angeles. You came over when you needed me, and left me there when you didn't. I am also a woman, and I also have emotional needs. When Taylor is not at home, I accompany you. When she is at home, I am just your neighbor. This is all I ask for." When she was moved, her eyes were slightly red.

To be honest, she didn't have much "awareness" and didn't really know how to advance or retreat. However, she could say these words because she really felt lonely. Ryan had passed by Los Angeles before and didn't see her, which exacerbated her loneliness, so she took the initiative to come to her house this time.

She is still just a small actor now, but that may not be the case after "Bankrupt Jimei" is broadcast. She will most likely become a small celebrity.

Ryan held his forehead, was silent for a moment, and slowly said: "I can let you live nearby..." Then he knocked on the table twice: "But don't come here."

"Then I'll only come over when Taylor's home, are you satisfied with that?" Daddario shrugged.

No, just pretend I never said that.

"Anyway, don't do it," Ryan said. What if the neighbors saw it? What if there were any clues left? This was playing with fire.

I can't build a tunnel connecting her house to my own, can I?
At this moment, I heard the sound of Taylor's footsteps coming down the stairs.

Daddario immediately wiped his eyes.

When Taylor went downstairs again, she had changed into a one-piece dress with a knitted cardigan on top, put on some light makeup, tied her hair into a ponytail, and pulled it in front of her body, hanging down from her shoulders. She looked like a housewife.

Ryan's eyes lit up. It was the first time he saw Taylor dressed like this. She really had the charm of a young woman.

"Why are your eyes red?" Taylor, who sat down again, immediately noticed Daddario's change.

"It's about the crew. Amber saw that Daddario has a soft personality, so she always steals her limelight, which makes Daddario very upset. So she came to me to complain." Ryan spread his hands.

"Don't mention it, I hate Amber so much..." Daddario took the opportunity to open up the conversation and revealed all of Amber's outrageous actions, which was not fabricated.

Taylor was stunned: "This woman is really hard to deal with."

"Let's not talk about her, it's unlucky. The real reason I came here this time is to find a house nearby. I heard that this is one of the best places to live in the United States." Daddario continued.

Taylor nodded immediately after hearing this: "You are absolutely right. The climate and environment here are good, and it faces the sea. There are no disadvantages except that the houses are expensive."

After hearing this, Daddario looked at Ryan meaningfully and said, "Don't worry about it. My fiancé still has this little money."

"Yes, the man you like must be very outstanding."

"It's just so-so. It can't be compared with your Ryan."

"You're too flattering. Ryan is just luckier." When Taylor heard others praising Ryan, he felt as proud as when others praised himself.

"Since you two are not short of money, the real estate agent who introduced the house to us last time is quite suitable for you and your fiancé. I'll ask Ryan to give you his phone number. Ryan can accompany you to see the house in the next two days." Taylor thought of something.

"Really? That's great. I must choose the most expensive one!" Daddario nodded quickly.

"Hehe, as an actor you don't earn much now, and your fiancé will have to pay for the house. You can't put too much pressure on him, right?" Ryan said quickly.

If I don't speak up now, I won't be able to stop.

"I have money, you don't have to worry about me." Daddario raised his eyebrows at Ryan.

After breakfast, Ryan talked to Taylor about promoting his new song at the Ultra Music Festival, mainly to arrange a time with Taylor.

"Are you sure you can set up a sub-stage at Ultra? If you are sure, I will ask Robert Allen (tour manager) to change the tour time in advance. Set aside two days specifically." Taylor lay sideways on the soft sofa with his knees bent. As he spoke, he picked up the grapes on the sofa and stuffed them into his mouth.

She looked like the hostess just now, but now she has turned into a naughty little girl. She is always like this at home.

It can only be said that she has not yet fully adapted to the identity of "housewife".

Daddario, who was sitting next to her, was sitting much more properly. She would pick up Taylor's grapes from time to time, eating them while listening to the two people's conversation.

"Even if there is no stage, you still have to come. Ultra will never unwelcome you. You can inform Alan Robert later."

Taylor nodded and spat out the grape skin.

"You and Ryan are going to perform at the music festival?" Daddario asked at this time.

Taylor looked up and looked at Daddario upside down: "Yeah, how long will you be in Florida? Ask your fiancé to come over and see."

"He's probably going on a business trip. As for me... the pilot episode hasn't aired yet. I have plenty of time now. I really want to go to the music festival. I've never been to a music festival before." Daddario bit a grape and looked at Ryan again.

"Then I have only one suggestion, you must never drink drinks handed to you by strangers." Taylor reminded. "With GHB?" Daddario asked.

“What is GHB?”

"After drinking it, I will fall asleep directly and know nothing when I wake up."

"Yes, this stuff might have been mixed into what I drank before." Taylor nodded immediately.

The two then began to talk about the situation at that time, and Taylor was actually not on guard at all. If someone talked to her, she would keep talking.

Ryan watched for a while, and when he saw that there were no flaws in Daddario's words, he got up and went to the study upstairs alone.

He first called Marvin, asked for the festival organizer's phone number, and then dialed the number directly.

"Ryan! My dear Ryan, you are the most important guest of Ultra this year. Is there anything I can help you with? If you have any needs, just tell me and I will try my best to meet them." The person on the other end of the phone heard Ryan's voice directly and immediately said excitedly.

"What do you call it?"

"Russell Fabisch, you can call me Russell."

Ryan got straight to the point: "If possible, I would like to set up a sub-stage at this year's ultra."

"Why did you think of this? Ryan, this will bring a lot of extra expenses to the music festival... It's not that I think you don't have enough appeal, it's just that Ultra only sells close-in tickets. It seems that there are a lot of people participating, but the box office revenue... is actually not that much." Russell said hesitantly.

"I have several artists under my management who can be put on the separate stages. They can just get a symbolic income." Ryan plans to give Kevin Harris, Ellie Goulding and the two female singers introduced to Taylor before some exposure opportunities. Only with exposure can these people contribute more income.

In other words, Ryan used his opportunity to make money as a bargaining chip.

Russell quickly understood the idea: "Of course you can. It's totally fine if you want to bring in a few newcomers, but there's no need to buy an extra stage."

He felt that Ryan's request was a bit unreasonable.

"What about adding Taylor Swift to the mix?"

"This one……"

"I will be performing my latest single for the first time at the festival, which was not included in the previous contract."

"..."

"I'll be singing the same thing Taylor did at the Grammys."

"..."

"Taylor will also be performing new songs, brand new songs that have never been revealed before!"

"Okay, that sounds good, but you also know the cost issue... If you can bear part of the cost, that would be great." Russell smiled on the other end of the phone.

"No problem." Ryan agreed readily.

"That's so generous of you."

"I can bear part of the cost, but correspondingly, I also have to enjoy a part of the box office revenue of the stage."

“All that was sold were passes.”

"That's not a problem." Ryan is now wealthy, so he is happy to participate when he sees an opportunity to make money. Besides, the music festival is different from other projects. It is his "main job" and he can make good use of his DJ advantages, just like in a nightclub.

"Great! You are worthy of being a star who can cooperate with Dior. Since you are interested in participating, I certainly welcome you. There is no problem with the music festival, but there is one problem... We must get the approval of the Miami Municipal Government. As you know, this kind of large-scale music festival will generate many unstable factors, and the performance venues need to be reported in advance."

"And there is another problem. Since it involves sharing of sales revenue, I must notify my partners and I will be responsible for communicating with them. You don't have to show up at all at that time." Russell continued.

"Do you have any partners?" Ryan asked.

He didn't know this before, he always thought that ultra belonged to Russell Fabish alone.

"That's right, it's a problem left over from the early days. Let me tell you this, I have some disputes with the other party over profit sharing, he feels that he gets too little, but you have to know that he wasn't involved at all, and we also have some differences on the future development direction of Ultra. At that time, he may obstruct your plan to divide the stage. If you do what I say then, it will be done." Russell reiterated.

He seemed reluctant to allow Ryan to have any connection with another ultra music festival founder.
