Calculating the time, it should be two in the afternoon in America. Xiao Yunhai dialed Raúl's number and asked him to check Brie Mestre's manager's number.
In less than ten minutes, Raúl sent the number to his phone.
Xiao Yunhai didn't say anything and directly called. The call was quickly connected.
"Hello, I'm Brie Mestre's manager, Adele Brightman. May I ask who you are?"
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Hello, Ms. Brightman. I'm Xiao Yunhai."
"Xiao Yunhai?" Adele Brightman found the name familiar. She hesitated and asked, "Are you from Hua Xia?"
Xiao Yunhai stared blankly. He didn't expect that this manager didn't even know him. He said, "Of course I'm from Hua Xia. People overseas call me Kungfu Xiao. "
"Ah!"
As soon as Xiao Yunhai's voice fell, Adele Brightman's scream was heard from the phone. She seemed to be in disbelief.
After a while, Brightman said, "Mr. Xiao, I'm sorry. I lost my composure just now. Both Brie and I are your biggest fans. We were a little excited when we heard your name. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Just don't doubt me. Ms. Brightman, I'm calling to ask if Miss Mestre has time to come to Beijing in the next two days. "
Brightman didn't even think about it and said, "Yes. Mr. Xiao, what's the matter? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "I want to invite her to come and audition the theme song of the Olympic Games, 'You and Me'."
Brightman was overjoyed when she heard it. She suppressed the joy in her heart and said, "Okay, I'll tell her right away. I'll take a flight to Beijing tonight. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Ms. Brightman, please don't get too excited. This is just an audition. We won't necessarily choose Miss Mestre. I hope you can understand. "
Brightman said, "Of course we understand. Mr. Xiao, thank you for giving us this opportunity. I'll inform her right away. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Thank you."
After hanging up the phone, Adele Brightman didn't have the slightest trace of her usual dignity and elegance. Instead, she jumped up in joy.
She swung her arm fiercely and ran to find Bree Meester.
At this moment, Brie was in a terrible mood.
As a second-tier singer, Meester didn't have a high status in the United States. He was often bullied by some stingy singers.
She and Adele Brightman had come to Warner Television to record a gala, and she needed to sing a song on stage.
According to the schedule, it was supposed to be her turn to have her makeup done. However, as soon as she entered the dressing room, before she could even sit down, a group of people rushed in, led by Robbie, a big star from the same company as her.
Robbie had repeatedly harassed her, asking her to go to bed with him, but Meester didn't pay attention to him. This caused Robbie to hold a grudge and often find ways to cause trouble for Meester.
He must have done it on purpose again.
But knowing was one thing. Her status was not as high as his, and the television station would not stand up for her.
After quarreling, Meester was very depressed and was invited to a small dressing room by the staff of the television station.
Brightman searched for a long time before finding the dressing room.
Seeing Brightman come in, Meester said unhappily, "Adele, why are you so late? I was just kicked out by that bastard Robbie. "
Brightman said, "I'm sorry. I just received a very, very important call. Robbie is a bastard. We don't have time to deal with him now. "
Meester frowned slightly and said, "A very important call? How important? It's not some performance, is it? "
Brightman said excitedly, "No, it's not. Bree, there's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in front of you. Do you know the Olympic Games? "
Meester said unhappily, "Of course I do. My idol, Mr. Xiao, is the director of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. But what does this have to do with me? Don't say that Mr. Xiao wants to invite me to perform. That's too much of a fantasy. "
Brightman smiled and didn't say a word. Instead, he looked at Meester with a very special expression.
Meester was stunned. His beautiful eyes shone with disbelief. He suppressed his excitement and asked tentatively, "Adele, is that true?"
Adele shook her head and said, "Of course not."
Seeing the disappointment on Meester's face, Adele continued, "But the call just now was from Mr. Xiao himself. He invited you to audition the theme song of the Olympic Games. If he's satisfied, you'll be able to sing in front of billions of people at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. "
Meester stood up with a bang. His beautiful lips trembled slightly and tears flowed down his cheeks.
His excitement was evident in his words.
Brightman knew how difficult it was for Meester to enter the entertainment industry. He walked forward and patted him on the back. He said, "Bree, I'll book a ticket to Beijing right away. I'll leave tonight. Remember, you just have a rare opportunity. It doesn't mean that you'll be the one to sing the theme song. What you need to do is to prepare well and try to win this song. Do you understand? "
Meester wiped his tears and nodded heavily.
With Xiao Yunhai's invitation, Mestre no longer cared about Robbie snatching her dressing room. Even if Robbie deliberately swaggered past her, she didn't have any reaction.
Compared to the audition of the theme song of the Olympic Games, this matter couldn't be any more trivial.
Robbie was like a clown. He didn't care at all.
That night, Meester and the others took a plane to Beijing.
When they arrived at the airport, two staff members of the Olympic Games took them to a luxury business car.
"Excuse me, where are we going now?" Adele Brightman asked.
The staff member smiled and said, "To the Olympic Stadium. At this time, they should be rehearsing there. "
Meester asked, "Is Mr. Xiao there too?"
"Of course. He's the director. He's the last one to leave every day. "
"Do you know who I'll be singing the theme song of the Olympic Games with?"
"Originally, Mr. Xiao and Ms. Zhao were going to sing. But Mr. Xiao was very busy as the director that day. He didn't have time, so you and Ms. Chen Huan were going to sing. "
"Ms. Chen Huan. That's great. I like her voice very much. "
As they chatted, the car soon arrived at the Olympic Stadium.
As soon as they walked in, Meester and the others were attracted by the more than 2,000 young people in white exercise clothes.
"That's spectacular." Brightman's mouth was wide open. He couldn't believe it.
Meester nodded and said, "Yes. With so many people relying on music, their Taiji Fist movements are actually as one. It's too shocking. "
"Mr. Xiao is in front. I'll take you there."
Meester and Brightman followed the staff member and saw Xiao Yunhai with a serious face.
"Mr. Xiao, nice to meet you. I'm Meester, and this is my manager, Brightman."
Xiao Yunhai turned to look at them and smiled. "Ms. Meester, Ms. Brightman, thank you for coming all the way to Beijing to audition the theme song of the Olympic Games."
Meester shook hands with Xiao Yunhai and said, "Mr. Xiao, I should be the one thanking you for giving me such a rare opportunity. But I don't understand. There are so many singers out there. Why did you choose me? "
Xiao Yunhai was stunned. He chuckled and said, "I did a search on the Internet for second-rate American singers. I felt that your voice and Ms. Chen Huan's voice would be very good together. That's why I called Ms. Brightman."
Meester nodded and said, "So that's how it is. Mr. Xiao, when can I audition? "
Xiao Yunhai thought for a moment and said, "Tomorrow morning at nine o 'clock. I'll get someone to take you to see Ms. Chen Huan. She has the song. As for how you'll sing it, you can decide. I want to listen to it tomorrow night. "
Meester nodded and said with a serious expression, "Okay."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "The hotel has been booked. You can have a good night's rest and get over the jet lag. Xiao Wang, take Ms. Meester to the hotel. "
Xiao Wang nodded and left with Meester and the others.
