American Entertainment: Taylor Swift wrote a song for the beginning

Chapter 96: Get Started in Advance (More Updates, Please Subscribe)
When Ryan walked out of the lounge, he saw Karlie Kloss, whom he had met before, waiting at the door.

As Ryan expected, the music festival gave VIP access to the after-party, and Carly relied on this to get to the venue.

"Ryan..." She tried to smile.

It’s a pity that she still can’t laugh and can only grin.

She tried to start a conversation, first talking about the after-party, then mentioning Ryan's performance just now, but it was just an awkward conversation.

Ryan looked at Daddario beside him, who smiled helplessly.

She has seen many girls who approach Ryan and take the initiative to talk to him. Almost every time Ryan goes to a new city for a performance, some people will come uninvited and try to establish a relationship with him by chatting. A few of them will directly make hints. In short, they just want to make friends with Ryan, well, in the literal sense.

"Ryan will contact you if he needs anything in the future." Daddario took the initiative to interrupt and end the communication between Carly and Ryan.

"Oh, sorry, your schedule may be busy. Anyway... sorry to bother you." Karlie Kloss realized something and took the initiative to make way.

Ryan then took Daddario around the venue, but found it boring and prepared to leave. At this time, Ryan caught a glimpse of Karlie Kloss, who was standing alone next to the Tintin Band. She seemed to be waiting for the Tintin Band to finish talking with others before asking for their autographs.

Ryan said a few words to Daddario, and then Daddario walked over and took the initiative to introduce Karlie Kloss to the two of them. Not only did he help Karlie get an autograph, he also helped Karlie and Katie take a photo together.

Katie is 1.68 meters tall and Karlie Kloss is 1.88 meters tall. Katie is two sizes smaller than Karlie. In order to take the photo, Karlie could only squat slightly.

She smiled this time? Ryan noticed that she was smiling happily and that there was a mole on the right side of her nose. Her face was small for her height.

After taking the photo, Katie took the initiative to give Carly a small gift, a small pendant for her key chain, and they even exchanged phone numbers, giving Ryan a lot of face.

Carly was a little flattered. She turned to look at Ryan not far away and raised her hand to greet Ryan somewhat embarrassedly.

Ryan nodded and turned to leave with Daddario who came over.

·
"I've got Karlie Kloss's phone number. Can we ask her to come over tonight?" asked Daddario who was driving.

"Does it mean that if I look at a young woman on the street for one more second, that I want to sleep with her?" Ryan laughed angrily. Couldn't he just do a little more?

"What else?" Daddario asked as a matter of course.

"You have a problem recently. It's a big problem. You'd better pay attention to it." Ryan said suddenly.

This is not the first time. During this period, Daddario has always intentionally or unintentionally brought up the topic of other women in private.

"I also like Radiohead, why don't you help me get their autographs?" Daddario muttered.

"You can be jealous of this?"

"How am I jealous?" Daddario stepped on the accelerator.

Entering the room, Ryan turned on the TV, but Daddario did not leave like before.

Ryan waved his hand, indicating that she could go home.

"There's no TV in my room." Daddario grabbed the remote control.

Before Ryan could say anything, his attention was drawn to the party on TV.

This is a one-hour special program broadcast live simultaneously by the three major television networks. It is a charity gala called "Live at Stand Up to Cancer". At this time, the gala has come to an end. 15 popular female singers have taken the stage together and sang "Just Stand Up!" to call on the public to donate.

What a coincidence, this theme song was jointly created by the big names in the circle, BabyFace and LA Reid. BabyFace has won more than ten Grammy Awards and is the godfather of R&B and the golden partner of LA Reid.

The female singers were led by Mariah Carey, Beyoncé, Mal, Fergie of the Black Eyed Peas, Rihanna, Mary J. Blige, Carrie Underwood, Nicole Scherzinger and several other female pioneers of country music, R&B and rock... three generations of people, old, middle-aged and young, gathered together.

Leona Lewis was also included, and she and Fergie were assigned the second verse. The duet between the two completely overshadowed Rihanna and Mai Li, and the two young people were pushed to the edge and stood like minions.

"Where's Taylor Swift?" Ryan asked involuntarily.

"She's too young to get breast cancer," Daddario said with certainty. At least in this matter, Taylor turned a disaster into a blessing.

"Are you still working with Leona on the promotion?" Daddario asked.

"I've postponed it to next month, and then I'll attend the Top 100 DJ Awards Ceremony," Ryan said.

Previously, either Ryan had something to do or Leona had work arrangements, so they could only postpone it to next month. At the same time, DJ Magazine has started selecting the top 100 DJs this year. This month's monthly issue will include a voting receipt. After readers select the best DJ of the year in their hearts, they can mail the receipt back to the magazine. This old selection method has gradually become outdated. It is said that the magazine will switch to online voting next year. At this time, Ryan's phone rang. Under normal circumstances, only Taylor would call at this time.

"How was the show?" But this time it was Scooter who called.

"Same old story. You know large-scale live events are the home of electronic music. Those people playing in bands standing backstage were all stunned." Ryan laughed.

"Perfect, I knew you could do it, Ryan, I wasn't wrong about you." Scooter was also very excited. From the sound of noise over there, he was organizing a party again.

"But I have something to tell you... I will hand over next year's nightclub tour to another company, a new company." Ryan mentioned.

Performance arrangements are usually not included in the artist's contract with the record company, which is a big part of many artists' income.

When signing the contract, Jesse deleted all the clauses related to performances from the contract.

However, Scooter later took the initiative to find Ryan and took on this additional business.

"Why? Ryan, do you think the price is low? Man, I tried my best to help you negotiate. Don't you know how much hard work I put in behind the scenes? Or are you not satisfied with other aspects? Everything can be negotiated as long as you open your mouth." Scooter immediately began to dissuade.

"I am very satisfied with your arrangement, everything is fine, but I have a new partner."

"Let me guess... AEG told you something, right? But they know nothing about electronic music, you can't be fooled by them." Scooter knew that the music festival Ryan attended was hosted by AEG, and he immediately thought of something.

"Let's not talk about this topic." Ryan said immediately.

"Why can't we talk? Ryan, listen... I've given you unprecedented favorable conditions, I treat you like my own brother, I made you famous, I gave you everything you have now, now you're getting cocky and ready to kick me out, right?!" His tone changed in the blink of an eye, faster than turning the pages of a book, his voice was a little choked up, Ryan could smell the alcohol coming from the receiver.

"During the contract period, our cooperation will continue as usual." Ryan's tone remained unchanged. He had a vague feeling that this call might not end well.

Daddario was watching TV, and immediately turned his head to look at Ryan.

"Really? This is not the attitude you should have. I'm giving you two choices now. Either you take back what you just said and I'll pretend nothing happened, or you terminate all activities. All performances, all promotions, and all singles will be removed from online stores starting tomorrow."

Ryan's tone was very harsh, and Scooter's tone was even harsher than Ryan's, because he was drunk.

"You don't think of me as a fourteen-year-old kid, do you?" Ryan said.

"I was a little drunk, but I'm sober. I own the master rights! You'll never perform your tracks in public again, jumping around like a fool."

"Really? Then why don't I remake it?" Ryan asked. He thought to himself that it was a good thing that he had listened to Taylor's advice.

"Are you kidding me?!" Scooter was a little annoyed.

"Also, if my track is removed tomorrow, then we will terminate the contract immediately." Ryan simply told him.

"Then you have to tell the judge. Unless you can pay the penalty now, it's not a small amount, millions."

"Why not?" Ryan now had food in his hands and was not panicked at all.

"Where did you get the money? Did Taylor give it to you? What do you two want to do... I know, it must be that old fox Taylor's father who gave you two advice." Scooter suddenly realized.

It must be said that Scooter has a strong ability to associate and is very thoughtful. He interpreted Ryan's resistance as a secret instruction from Taylor's father, which was very reasonable in his opinion. He did not forget that Ryan's lawyer at the time was a friend of Taylor's father.

Although he guessed the wrong mastermind, he was accidentally involved in another plan of Ryan, and Ryan had not discussed this matter with the boss of Big Machine.

"So you two have been in the same group for a long time. Okay, very good. Since you two want to play this way, let's try another way to play."

Scooter hung up the phone directly.

Ryan put down his phone and immediately called Taylor's father.

"What happened? Ryan." Daddario leaned over. She had just faintly heard Scooter's roar.

"We have to start now..." Ryan frowned slightly, looking a little worried: "Scott, there is an emergency now. Is Taylor home? We have to prepare for the follow-up arrangements in advance..."
