America's Top Player

Chapter 93 Diddy's Woman

Three days later, Leon, Ariana, Phil and others appeared at Kennedy International Airport, heading to Miami.

In the first-class waiting room, songs from Li Ang's new album were playing on the radio.

He subconsciously turned up the lapels of his windbreaker and pushed up his sunglasses to avoid being recognized.

The impact of Billboard TOP3 on him was real, and his life rhythm was completely disrupted.

A group of paparazzi often gathered downstairs of Leon's residence on Henry Street, and the bolder ones would even wait directly at his door.

He wanted to beat up these hateful paparazzi several times.

Fortunately, he had the bad reputation of "Street Coconut Crisps", so every time before he could take action, the reporters would flee in panic like stray dogs.

Now he was extremely glad that he had rented the top floor, otherwise the nude yoga class he taught Bonnie would have been monitored by these paparazzi.

In addition, his mailbox is often filled with gifts from fans.

Most of them are some unpacked underwear, second-hand fake eggplants and other strange things.

Street Coconut Crisp maintains its popularity by relying on black traffic. Among his fans there are many freaks and crazy people, especially die-hard fans.

This seriously interfered with his normal life, so he decided to release several more versions of the "Demons" album to reap the profits.

Sales reached 50 copies, and a gold commemorative edition was released.

Sales reached 100 million copies and a platinum commemorative edition was released.

They even released a commemorative edition one year after the release, doing everything they can to drain the wallets of these fans!

While waiting for the flight, Phil held a magazine he picked up from the bookshelf.

He watched intently and cursed, "Fuck! Look at this bitch's ass! It looks flawless, but I don't understand how it can be worth $3.5 million in insurance!"

Those business elites in suits put down their newspapers and stared at Phil with disdain.

"Keep your voice down! Have you never seen a woman before?" Leon rolled his eyes at Phil and leaned closer, saying, "Let me see."

Ariana's curiosity was also aroused, and she quickly came over, "I want to see it too!"

"Don't look at that, kids!"

The cover features a plump, curly-haired girl, half-naked and with a provocative expression.

This is the consistent style of shooting for marginal magazines.

It is worth mentioning that this woman has a distinct Latin look, but also has some white features.

Although she wore heavy makeup and had been modified with Photoshop, you could still tell from her eyebrows that she was an old woman, a typical American Milf.

Li Ang studied her and commented, "Is this Jennifer Lopez? She has a nice figure, but she's a bit old."

"That's why I said you're still young. Women are like wine; the longer they age, the more flavorful they become! Milfs are a cultural symbol of America!"

Li Ang spread his hands, showing no intention of refuting.

There is a saying circulating around the world: men of any age like 18-year-old girls.

Whether this statement is accurate remains to be seen.

Take the small films produced by the Buzzards Film Studio for example. The Milf-type actors have always been at the top of the sales charts, leaving the little girls far behind.

In terms of looks and figure, there are many actresses in Hollywood who are better than Jennifer.

Even her proud buttocks are not as visually impactful as Beyoncé and Kardashian.

This butt is worth 3.5 million US dollars?
Old Phil looked at the photo of Lopez and swallowed. "We met when she was young. Jennifer wasn't mature yet."

"Tsk tsk. After all, she's the woman Didi can't forget. She's so perfect."

Li Ang was originally not interested in this mature woman in her 40s, but when Didi was mentioned, he immediately became alert.

There has been a rumor recently in New York's black district that Didi often invites gangsters to his parties.

Many of them are hardened gang members with long criminal records.

Didi must have some purpose in letting such a group of desperadoes sneak into the parties of celebrities and wealthy businessmen.

He is very skilled at hiring gunmen to carry out illicit operations.

After all, he has been doing this kind of thing since the 90s.

At present, with Didi's popularity in the hip-hop circle, he no longer has any obvious enemies.

Those rich men like him were all good friends who fought together in the silver party;

Most of those who had enemies with him had already tasted the bullet in the 90s.

Looking for a gunman at this time, Li Ang knew he had to be vigilant.

There is a high probability that this matter is directed at me.

Fortunately, Florida is a stronghold of Latinos, with more than 250 million Latino immigrants.

If illegal immigrants are included, the number would probably be much higher.

Aisha has a mysterious connection to the Latin gang, so Leon believes his safety in Florida can be guaranteed.

"What's going on between Jennifer and P. Diddy? Tell me in detail."

"You didn't know that?" Phil said, surprised. "Didi and Jennifer started dating in 1998 and have been together for over two years, which is quite rare for someone like Didi."

"You forget that I was only 1998 years old in 8."

"Jennifer happens to be in Miami too, recording the MV for her new song with Pip Paul." Phil said while swallowing.

"So? Does this have anything to do with us?"

"Hasn't Didi always wanted to take revenge on you? I think if we take down Jennifer, Nico will be furious!"

Li Ang's face was filled with speechlessness, and Lao Deng only had Puxi in his mind.

Phil went through a lot of research on Diddy's love history. Although this guy has never been married, he has dated more than 30 famous "girlfriends" in the entertainment industry.

These people include both men and women.

Among them are Fossey Brown, Mariah Carey, Mary J. Blige and other big names.

Li Ang jokingly said, "Does this guy want to sleep with all the famous black female singers in the entertainment industry?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he received a disdainful look from Phil, "Isn't it the same with you? When Didi was 20 years old, he might not have played as well as you."

Then he changed the subject and continued, "Jennifer must still be in love with Diddy. I wonder how many times that perfect buttocks has been ravaged by that guy."

"How did you know?"

Phil smiled obscenely and said, "Don't you understand this? It's impossible to completely separate bitches and scumbags. Don't hold out any hope for it!"

Li Ang deeply agreed.

He turned his head and continued to listen to the radio while scrolling through social media.

The star host of Z100 radio station and the famous music critic Calvin were praising and teasing each other in different ways about how excellent the album "Demons" was.

"Calvin, what's your favorite song on the entire album?" the host asked.

"Fuck you, you're really giving me a hard time! If I put the paintings of Paul Gauguin, Cézanne, and Van Gogh side by side, can you tell me whose work is better?!"

After hearing this, even singer Li Ang couldn't hold back his excitement.

Calvin directly compared his own work to the great masters of art history, which easily achieved the opposite effect of "high-level black". However, the more outrageous thing is yet to come.

The host replied, "You're right! Now when I work out, I only listen to Li Ang's music. This powerful music even helps me break through my bench press bottleneck!"

Calvin immediately exaggerated, "That's nothing. Now I listen to Radioactive for a while before I connect with my wife!"

"I feel full of energy every time. My wife also gave this album a full score!"

"You know what? I have something to announce here!"

"Z100 listeners, New York music fans, my wife is pregnant! We are expecting our second child!"

"If you want to uphold traditional American values and have a happy family"

"Listen to me, go to the record store now and grab this great album 'Demons'!"

Can you get pregnant by listening to music?
Leon was silent, while Phil laughed out loud, clutching his stomach. "These music critics are a bunch of bastards with no moral composure. I wonder how much money ROC Kingdom has given them."

Due to Li Ang's successful performance in the NBA Christmas game, he has fallen out of the top 3 on the billboard.

However, sales of the "Demons" album soared again in the third week, reaching 15 copies, the same as the first week.

It is very rare for an album to surpass its first-week sales three weeks after its release.

This is partly because the quality of the work itself is very high, but more importantly, a lot of money was invested.

Social networks, music magazines, TV channels, music radio stations.
ROC Kingdom has spent more than $100 million on publicity.

According to the contract that Li Ang had signed with JAY-Z in person, as long as the sales of the first album exceeded 50,000 copies in the first week, Li Ang would receive 30% of the sales share.

This caused ROC to be hesitant about distributing dividends for the first time, as this was no small amount of money.

JAY-Z must be regretting the decision he made casually at the time, as the contract is a fact that cannot be changed.

But as a shrewd businessman, JAY-Z found other ways to exploit Li Ang.

When the two parties signed the contract, the streaming media sales aspect was very vague.

Originally, Li Ang should have received 10% of the copyright revenue from streaming media, and 30% of the revenue from physical record sales.

But JAY-Z was only willing to give a total of 25% of the share according to the original agreement.

Even if Li Ang was unwilling, he had no choice but to accept it.

As long as the master rights are in JAY-Z's hands, he will most likely lose the case if he goes to court.

By integrating the sales of vinyl records and CDs, Li Ang ultimately made a profit of $150 million before tax from the physical record sector.

After integrating the single and digital album on the streaming platform, he also received a dividend of 30 US dollars.

In less than a month, he raked in nearly 200 million dollars, making him a top-tier celebrity.

"It's time to board the plane. Let's go." Li Ang said, glancing at the big gold watch.

Phil reluctantly threw the magazine down, "Fuck! The first thing I'll do when I get to Miami is meet those Latin chicks! Did you know that Colombian women are even better than Mexican women?"

Li Ang repeatedly told Lao Deng to control his behavior when he arrived in Miami.

It would be a big trouble if you accidentally rode on a drug dealer's woman.

After more than three hours of flight, the plane landed at Miami International Airport.

As I stepped off the plane, I was hit by a wave of heat.

The average temperature in Miami in December is nearly 12 degrees higher than that in New York, so Li Ang quickly took off his windbreaker.

After getting off the plane, Phil looked around and found that the girls here were dressed much more casually than those in New York.

As a coastal city with a subtropical climate, Miami's trendsetters can wear swimsuits almost all year round.

In this city, bikinis are common clothes for girls.

It's normal for this city to see girls shopping in grocery stores wearing only string swimsuits.

Therefore, this is the first choice for wealthy white men to retire.

It is just a lie that a pleasant climate is conducive to longevity.

No one doesn't want to open their eyes every day with big blonde waves in their twilight years.

Not long after entering the airport lobby, Li Ang noticed some unusual movements not far ahead.

A large group of men and women of different skin colors and scantily clad clothes held up support signs with Leon and Ariana's names written on them.

Even with sunglasses on his face, he was recognized by his fanatical fans at a glance.

"Damn it!"

The fan group picking him up at the airport is Li Ang’s nightmare.

As he frequently travels between New York and Los Angeles, he is often besieged by fans at Los Angeles International Airport.

Those fanatical female fans often take off their bras and throw them at the boys, and sometimes even use more extreme "biochemical weapons".

"Leon! OMG! It's really Leon!"

"Ariana, I love you. You're much prettier than Robbie! You and Leon are so perfect together!"

Leon lowered his head, put his arm around Ariana's shoulders, and walked quickly with his head down under the escort of Davis and Phil, ignoring the screams that were like thunder and lightning.

Phil, on the other hand, was completely satisfied. His rough big hands swept over the scantily clad female fans without stopping along the way.

If you compare the Brazilian girl and the Colombian girl carefully, who has bigger taillights?

"God! Miami is just like the rumors say, it's an ethnic museum!"

The purpose of Li Ang's trip was to carry out a series of promotional activities in Florida to promote the album, the most important of which was to participate in the Miami swimsuit show.

This was also the last swimwear show held in Miami in 2010, and it happened to be held on New Year's Eve.

Miami swimwear shows have always been known for their large-scale content, but in recent years they have no longer been confined to the bikini format.

Many times, designers create swimsuits on the spot for models by sticking tape on a certain part of the model's body.

Such a performance is already full of provocation, and most of the models invited are plump, which is completely different from the Victoria's Secret style.
Therefore, this show is also seen as a "concubine selection scene" for celebrities and wealthy businessmen.

As a heavyweight fashion show on New Year's Eve, it unsurprisingly attracted wealthy people and celebrities from all over the United States to come and choose their favorite pets.

Leon and Ariana Grande were officially invited by the organizers to perform the song "Senorita" together at this fashion show.

Although this song has not yet been released as a physical record, it has only been released through streaming media.

But it’s going viral at an alarming rate.

Especially in cities with a large Latino population such as Texas and Florida, the momentum of this song is no less than that of Katy Perry's "Firework".

Because "Senorita" is a Spanish word, and the whole song is full of Caribbean style.

After finally breaking through the circle of fanatical fans, Li Ang and his group boarded the business car sent by the organizer and headed straight for the Four Seasons Hotel in southern Miami.

"Fxxk! These people are crazy." After arriving at the hotel, Li Ang threw himself directly onto the bed, completely ignoring the charming sea view.

He was scrolling through social media while replying to Robbie's message.

Phil stood on the balcony, admiring the bikini beauties in the pool, and jokingly said, "If I were you, I wonder how many of these female fans would become single mothers."

"Hahaha~ I really don't understand what you're thinking, as long as you wave your hand, those bitches will pounce on your bed like she-wolves!"
