"Why do you look at me like that?"
Michael Jackson asked strangely.
Martin came back to his senses and scolded secretly.
"Madafu...., just now I was immersed in Huaxia Martin's memory, and my emotions were affected, so I should pay attention to ~ intentions in the future. "
On his face, he smiled and said: "Michael, I'm just thinking, can your body withstand concert after concert?"
Michael suddenly realized that the other party's pity and sympathy came from here, and at the same time, his heart was still a little happy.
The concern from Martin also put a smile on his face, and he liked the feeling.
"Thank you, I do feel tired, but it's also worth it, and the thought of so many people getting help makes me feel refreshed. "
"You are a great man!"
"No, I'm just ordinary people who do what I can, and those who give everything to help others are the most respectable. "
"There are so few of them. "
"yes, too little. Michael Jackson sighed.
But soon, this man collected his mood, calmed down, and asked Martin: "So Martin, would you like to go to my concert?"
"Of course, my pleasure!"
"Great!"
Michael Jackson clapped his hands excitedly again.
"Do you sing 'Unstoppable,' I love that song, it gets me all excited. "
"Can you tell me how that chorus came up with it, it's fantastic. "
"Oh, and 'That girl', the melody is so beautiful. "
"Uh-huh, and the second track from Martin 1.0, that music reminds me of one of the few happy times in my childhood, how did you do it?"
"I mean, just using your mouth to show so many different styles of instrumentation is also an emotional expression. "
Martin can see that this person's heart is indeed a little like a child, joy, anger and sorrow are on his face, and his emotions change quickly, and he is shocked.
"A little ventriloquist, you want to know, I can teach you." "
"Really, that's great. "
The two chatted enthusiastically.
The excitement of the three girls seeing the pop idol quickly faded.
"Martin and Michael had a great time. "
"They seem to have forgotten that we are also there. "
"I'm not happy!"
"I know there's a dessert shop downstairs, let's go and sit there." "
"I didn't bring my wallet. "
"I brought it, I treated!"
"Oh, Jessica, you're amazing, I love you to death!"
The three girls went downstairs, and neither Martin nor Michael Jackson seemed to notice.
Michael's bodyguard noticed, but said nothing, it was not his duty.
But did Martin really not notice?
Just by seeing that he quietly made a gesture behind his back, Gordon, who was sitting at the door, followed, and his attention to Michael was far less intense than it seemed.
He was just deliberately closing the distance between him and Michael, because… He coveted the music rights in Michael's hands.
The emperor superstar is a copyright collector.
To tell the joke, the Beatles sang their own songs and paid Michael Jackson royalties.
In 1985, Michael Jackson spent $47.5 million to acquire the ATV music library (which mainly included the rights to songs by The Beatles).
In 1995, Michael Jackson merged the published music library of ATV Sony to found Sony/ATV Music Publishing, which owns the song rights of many popular superstars, and he and Sony each own half of the copyright.
So far, this copyright library contains the music rights of Elvis, Steve Wonder, The Beatles, Marvin Gay, Rolling Stones, Mariah Carey and other singers, with a total of more than 400,000 songs worth more than 1 billion US dollars.
In the future, Martin will have a chance to get these rights.
Two and a half years later, in 2002, Michael Jackson ran out of cash flow due to huge expenses and failed investments.
During this time, Sony/ATV continued to acquire other music libraries, and since Jackson was also a half-owned joint venturer, he was forced to continue to invest the same amount of money as Sony to keep his shares unchanged, which also added a heavy financial burden to him.
For this reason, he had to release his new album "Invincible" in advance.
However, the release of the album was met with resistance, and the Columbia Music Company of Sony rejected the release proposal because the album was not perfect and did not meet the distribution standards.
Michael Jackson insisted on an early release, and Sony Columbia had to compromise, but was somewhat negative in publicity and sales.
Michael Jackson fell out with Sony Columbia Music for this, angrily saying that Sony wanted to get back half of the copyright to his songs, so he retaliated by sabotaging the promotion and sales of his new album "Invincible".
He believes that if the new album does not sell well, his cash flow will be in trouble, which will prevent him from paying off the loan on time, and Sony Colombia will be able to seize the rights to his songs.
Martin is targeting this opportunity.
Once Michael Jackson and Sony Columbia's copyright battle begins, he can take the opportunity to intervene, and then the magic in his body should be stronger and he can do more…
Whether he was on the side of Sony Columbia or Michael Jackson at that time, it didn't hurt to have a good relationship with Michael Jackson in advance.
The little by little influence of the power of seduction on the human heart, after three years, will accumulate into a terrible force and become its most decisive means.
And the influence on Motula, Martin also began to do it a long time ago.
After some small talk, Michael offered to take his leave.
"Martin, your ventriloquist skills are very interesting, I will practice it well when I go back, I just don't know if I can catch this concert, otherwise I will definitely surprise the fans." "
Martin was secretly amused, and said in his heart: I'm sorry, you can't learn it for a hundred years, it's not ventriloquist, it's magic!
Martin sent Michael to the door, and the two said goodbye.
Michael went downstairs and Martin went back to continue recording.
In the elevator, Michael Jackson suddenly touched his chest, revealing surprise.
"Paul (bodyguard), did you see my brooch, that Micky mouse's?"
"Boss. I didn't pay attention. "
"Oops, it must have been lost in Martin's studio, let's go back, that's my favorite brooch." "
Go back upstairs.
Paul, the bodyguard, knocked on the door.
The staff inside looked in the cat's eye and saw that it was Michael and his bodyguard, so they let the two in.
As soon as the door opened, a melodious music came out.
The staff said to Michael apologetically: "Sorry, because Martin's song is so good, and we don't have enough headphones, so we turned on the outside so that everyone could hear it." "
Michael Jackson didn't speak, put his fingers up, and made a "shh" motion.
Then he tiptoed into the door, asked the bodyguards to close them, and closed his eyes and listened quietly.
Creation is hard, cheer me up!
