America's Road to Wealth

Chapter 404 Abel’s daily life in the entertainment industry



George and his White House staff left California that afternoon.

In front of them, George said that environmental protection is very important and environmentally friendly energy is even more important.

His staff basically knew the meaning of the Shrub Family's leadership.

This allowed Abel's plan to be unanimously approved among them.

It will then be submitted to Congress together with President George's tax cut plan and a series of other economic stimulus plans.

As long as Congress approves it, the plan to support new energy can be implemented in the United States.

At that time, Abel, who was at the forefront, would direct Tesla and step into the storm created by him.

Before evening, Abel returned to Southern California.

But instead of going back to Los Angeles, he went to Malibu.

23762 Malibu Road.

Currently, she is one of the most popular young female musicians in the American music circle.

Britney Spears and the innocent punk Avril Lavigne all live here.

In the living room.

Abel took off his suit, threw it to the maid, sat on the sofa, and smiled at Avril who was standing aside: Are you ready? You will be the guest performer tomorrow.

“Of course!! Of course I’m ready!!”

Avril smiled happily and replied happily.

A few days ago, when Abel came to stay here.

This Canadian girl was a little unhappy and reported to Abel that the Grammys did not invite her or allow her to be a guest performer.

As a result, on the second day, not long after Abel left 23762 Malibu Road.

Grammy called her.

He said he would invite Avril Lavigne to be one of the main performers at this year's Grammys.

Of course Avril knew why, and she was very happy.

When she was happy, she came over without any reservation.

In front of the maid and Britney, the small body threw itself on Abel.

Warmly offer your own fragrance.

Britney was beside her, her beautiful eyes rolled helplessly.

It’s just a Grammy performance opportunity, what’s so surprising about it?

Miss Tiantian, she has been on stage as a guest performer since the 40th Grammy Awards in 1997, okay?

Originally, this year's Grammy also invited her and Michael Jackson to be this year's finale performers.

Britney heard from others that Michael Jackson refused.

After asking the company, she also declined Grammy's invitation.

She will attend, but she will no longer be a Grammy performer.

DreamWorks Music Company has begun to create a style for Britney and has begun to let her develop in the direction of a Diva.

Even if her singing skills are not up to par for the time being, her influence and level of performance will ensure that Britney will align with the Divas in the future.

Bryony has begun to transform.

Okay, okay. Your saliva is making my chin look bigger.

Britney looked at the man and smiled, then put down the panting Avril.

The latter was very unhappy, Huh! I took the initiative to kiss you, but you still dislike me! Don't even think about touching me tonight!

Britney's beautiful eyes couldn't help but roll again.

What you said is so awesome, the first person to surrender in the evening must be you, this Canadian girl!

Britney, who has been with Avril Lavigne for several months, is very familiar with the character of this Canadian girl.

Although Avril Lavigne is very punk, many times, she is a naive girl.

Say one thing with your mouth, think another in your heart, and express another.

After all, his debut time is short and his actual age is also young. At the beginning, there was a big tree like Abel to protect him.

How much social experience can an unexperienced little flower, even a so-called punk girl, have?

Britney, who had been in despair and almost fell completely into darkness, saw many things more clearly in comparison.

Hahaha... let's eat first. It's almost 7 o'clock.

Abel smiled and turned his eyes to the maid and housekeeper.

Okay, sir, I'll prepare it for you right away.

The maid and housekeeper put Abel's suit on her arm and said with a smile, then quickly walked to the living room and started giving orders to the maid.

After dinner, rest for half an hour.

Abel handled some company matters.

At about eight o'clock, he entered the singing practice room in the villa.

Because living here are two professional female singers from DreamWorks Music.

The mansion at 23762 Malibu Road has a state-of-the-art singing room specially redesigned for this purpose.

It has all the best facilities at present, allowing two female singers to practice their voices at home, or record some song demos.

As for the karaoke room, its sound insulation is naturally excellent.

This brings Abel into the future.

No matter it's Britney's unique and fresh voice, full of magnetic charm, it's a voice that you never tire of listening to.

Avril is still sweet and uninhibited, with a clear and powerful scream that is ethereal.

They couldn't communicate to the outside world from the well-soundproof singing studio.

It's useless to really shut down the throat.

The next day, Abel was not idle during the day and continued to handle some company affairs.

It wasn't until 4:30 pm that Abel's motorcade drove into another villa in Los Angeles.

The address of this villa is 613 Conner Road, Beverly Hills.

It has a total of 8 bedrooms and 14 full baths.

It certainly belonged to Abel as well.

Abel really had too many things like houses.

If you have money and vision, buy them when they are at their lowest value.

Even if he doesn't live in it himself and just uses it as an investment, he can still make a lot of money now.

Britney and Avril Lavigne are two people, and they enjoy two accommodations.

23762 Malibu Road is Avril Lavigne’s territory, and 613 Conner Road in Beverly Hills is Britney’s territory.

The relationship between the two is very good, so they can live wherever they want.

At noon today, Abel returned to Los Angeles to handle company affairs.

The two female singers dragged their energetic bodies after waking up to Beverly Hills.

Tonight, they will attend the Grammy party.

Malibu is a bit far from Staples Center.

It's directly here in Beverly Hills, past the Staples Center, it's much closer.

Didi——

Click——

The vehicle at the head of the convoy honked its horn twice.

The door of the villa opened, but Abel did not go in.

23762 Malibu Road, it's still relatively secretive.

But 613 Conner Road, Beverly Hills, where Britney now mainly lives, has long been known to paparazzi.

In addition, Avril Lavigne, her pure punk best friend who has become super popular in the past two months, also often lives here.

Britney's 613 Conner Road in Beverly Hills has been listed by many paparazzi reporters as one of the places they must visit every day.

Around the motorcade, you can see many paparazzi reporters.

This is also the reason why Abel rarely comes here.

Although he can use his influence to suppress the scandalous news that is not good for him.

But except for the media controlled by Smith Media itself, or friendly media.

Let other paparazzi entertainment media not report entertainment news related to Abel.

It mainly relies on Abel's connections, or his lawsuit storm that makes people very helpless, frightened and angry.

These two are fine occasionally, but not suitable if used too much.

So sometimes, even Abel, in front of these guys, can be spared one thing or another.

We are both engaged and can no longer be as unscrupulous as before.

He did not enter 613 Connor Road, Beverly Hills, but waited directly at the door.

The paparazzi who were squatting on Britney and Avril discovered his motorcade.

They all experienced changes in mood including curiosity, surprise, astonishment, pleasant surprise, and finally overjoyment.

The world's richest man, Abel Smith, who was at the height of his power, actually appeared at Britney's door openly!

There were rumors earlier that Abe Smith and Britney were having an affair.

Even Britney's rumored ex-boyfriend, who was banned from the American entertainment industry, was allegedly the work of someone.

On the eve of the Grammy party, Abel showed up at Britney's door.

Isn't this just confirming this rumor?

What makes the paparazzi even more excited is that they know that the innocent punk Avril Lavigne is now living in this house!

Is Abe Smith coming here to see Britney Spears or Avril Lavigne?

It would be easy to find the former, as the two of them seem to be a good match, handsome and beautiful.

It's not like Britney doesn't talk about her boyfriend's character. It's normal to have some scandals with the super playboy, the richest man in the world.

But if it were Avril Lavigne, it would be a lot of fun.

That's pure punk Avril Lavigne.

She is a ruthless girl who publicly vowed to remain chaste until marriage in front of the media and the Archpriest of the Ecclesiastical Province of Atlanta!

This method has earned her the love of a large number of middle-aged conservative fans.

If Avril Lavigne had some scandal and it was confirmed to be a real incident.

That is complete social death!

The paparazzi reporters surrounding 613 Connor Road in Beverly Hills went a little crazy thinking about the various possibilities here.

Fortunately, the name Abel Smith.

It has become a taboo and taboo to some extent among entertainment media and entertainment reporters.

Even if they become crazy, they will suppress it in their hearts and not dare to do anything too extreme.

Because something will really happen.

Although he didn't commit suicide by being shot eight times in the back.

But no paparazzi reporter would be willing to risk going to jail for doing something irrational.

The media behind them don’t want to offend the world’s richest man.

So when facing Abel, the craziest entertainment media reporters in the United States tend to behave themselves.

Fortunately, today, Abel had deliberately stopped at the door of No. 613 Connor Road, Beverly Hills, and not gone inside the villa.

It's just acting, for guys like them.

Give them some photo opportunities and legal and normal opportunities to hype up some entertainment news.

As long as it is safe, these entertainment media reporters can also shoot some content that Abel allows them to shoot from a distance.

For them, this is a little bit easier to explain.

The entrance of the villa.

Abel, who was standing in front of the car, saw the door of the villa open.

Appearing in front of him, Britney was wearing a white T-shaped embellished dress. She changed her previous image of a sweet and sexy little girl and became as elegant as a Greek goddess.

The specially prepared beautiful hairstyle made Britney look very beautiful. She used braids as hairpins to create a coordinated yet lively look.

In terms of makeup, shiny orange lipstick made her look more full and sexy.

Looking at Britney, whose eyes were shining, the corners of her mouth were raised, and her smile was very sweet, Abel smiled and stepped forward to shake hands with her very politely.

It looked strange and ordinary, nothing like last night.

The familiarity with which she rode.

Not long after Britney came out, Avril Lavigne also came out happily.

When the punk girl saw Abel, she was so excited that she wanted to throw herself into his arms.

Abel coughed lightly and secretly stretched out his hand to make a downward movement to stop her impulse.

You know, as one of the most popular female singers nowadays.

His personality is pure, and he even did cruel things like swearing in front of the priest.

If Avril Lavigne is photographed with an intimate photo of her and herself, there will really be a big fuss.

Avril also realized the problem. She frowned slightly, curled the corners of her mouth, held up her skirt, and walked elegantly to Abel.

Abel held Avril's little hand with one hand and held Britney with the other. He very gentlemanly let the two girls sit in the car first.

Hmph! Ahhhhh... I knew that it would be very troublesome later to come up with that kind of pure and badass female character! Look, I can't even take the initiative!

As soon as she got into the car, Avril's foxy eyes gave Abel a hard look at Abel who was sitting in the passenger seat in front of her, and she screamed in annoyance.

Abel, the co-pilot, flattened his seat and slipped into the trunk.

He squeezed in between Britney and Avril, hugged them from left to right, and raised the partition.

The 45th Grammy Awards ceremony was held at the Stamp Center in Los Angeles, USA.

There are two main venues for it, one is Los Angeles and the other is New York.

Basically every two years, it changes venue.

The red carpet of the Grammy Awards is always full of glamour, and they will never lose to the actors at the Oscars.

Even compared to Hollywood, these guys at the Grammys will be more radical.

Naturally, on the Grammy red carpet, you will of course see some horrible fashion choices by some stars.

The most famous one is Reddy Gaga who has not yet debuted at this time.

Many of Reddy Gaga’s early looks became popular.

However, none of this appealed to Abel.

He just met with the country's managers yesterday and persuaded them to accept his economic development plan.

Compared with those people, the Grammys and Hollywood are really just small scenes.

These singers and actors dream of it, and some are even willing to do anything to attend an awards show.

To him, it was just a small pastime when he was bored.

When he took Avril Lavigne and Britney onto the red carpet, he listened to the shouts and cheers from reporters and fans that filled the sky, as well as the free shutter sound, and the flash lights that turned the night into day.

Abel, Avril Lavigne, and Britney looked at each other and smiled. They did not stop on the red carpet, but walked towards the Staples Center without stopping.

Are you confident that you will win the shortlisted awards tonight?

Abel held Avril and Britney's slender waists, and asked Avril with a smile while walking.

Avril Lavigne is nominated for two awards tonight, one for Best New Artist and the other for Best Album.

Fortunately for the former, the Grammys have privately hinted that this year's Best New Artist will definitely go to Avril Lavigne.

This is the benefit Abel brings to Music DreamWorks by attending the Grammys in person.

But in order to ensure credibility, even if Abel attended in person.

The Grammys cannot guarantee that they will also award the best album to Avril Lavigne.

As for Britney, she took a break for most of last year and did not release a new album.

This year she mainly served as an award guest, so she kept a relatively low profile.

Tonight's Grammys have little to do with Britney.

She is a regular at the Grammys.

Avril Lavigne is different. Avril Lavigne just made her debut at the end of last year.

This year's Grammy is Avril Lavigne's first Grammy.

It means something different to Avril Lavigne.

Avril Lavigne and Britney also knew this, and knew that Abel was asking about the Grammy Award for Album of the Year.

I'm afraid it's difficult.

Speaking of the issue of winning awards, Avril raised her eyebrows slightly and whispered with an unhappy look:

Many musicians have ridiculed my creations as if they were children's songs, haha.

Blainey immediately comforted her: That's because they are deaf. Don't listen to them. In my mind, you are one of the best music creators!

Haha, Britney is right. Don't worry about those jealous mediocre people. Your emergence has made punk music, which has been declining in the past two years, come back again. Especially among the middle-aged group, the click rate of punk music There has been a significant increase. This is your contribution and no one can ignore or deny it!”

Also, almost all the media believe that you are a 'clean' good girl...

Abel raised his eyebrows and winked at Avril playfully.

Avril rolled her eyes at Abel angrily, snorted slightly, raised the corners of her mouth, and a blush appeared on her cheeks.

Haha... It's clean. If it's clean, why did you fight with me last night?

Britney, who was talking to Avril just now, immediately whispered when she mentioned this matter.

Hmph! Avril responded decisively: This is my character. What's wrong? In the eyes of ordinary people, I am just cleaner than you!

Indeed, in the past 20 years, the American pop music world has been popular about strong girls.

From Madonna to Mariah Carey, even to Britney Spears.

The queens of pop music never lack a variety of lively topics.

But what is eternal is that scandals always appear after they become successful, and during the stage of working hard, they always like to hide themselves behind the mask of purity.

Avril Lavigne's situation is a little different. With the power of Smith Media's connections and the wonderful guidance of David Geffen.

All American media that have reported on her agree that she is a good girl.

And this good girl style is exactly in line with the stay-at-home economy that is becoming increasingly popular in the world today.

This is also the main reason why Avril Lavigne is so popular!

The country that buys her albums the most, besides the United States, is the neon otakus!

Pure and punk, it can really arouse men's interest.

The plot of persuading women to do good deeds. Men all over the world have it.

Avril Lavigne’s character is an expansion of this plot.

Even Britney’s character is.

After the award ceremony began, Abel, who was sitting in the front row, watched the awards being handed out one by one.

He had to sigh, after entering the 21st century. As the purchasing power of the younger generation increases, Grammy, which used to be extremely popular, has to bow to reality.

The younger generation is starting to become mainstream.

Perhaps the extremely lively Grammy Awards ceremony will have good ratings. But this cannot change, nor can it resist the trend of the global traditional record industry, which is over.

In two or three years, with the popularity of Internet piracy, the traditional record industry in Asia will almost be wiped out collectively.

Europe and the United States have complete copyright protection, which is slightly better.

But the sunset on the west mountain is also visible to the naked eye.

Grammy is not a fool, and they can see that.

In recent years, Grammy has begun to work hard to retain the segment of consumers with the most purchasing power.

As a result, the Grammy awards were given to some veterans in the music industry.

Grammy naively believed that middle-aged music fans would not download online, but would just buy records and play them on the record player at home.

However, the economy is in recession, and middle-aged people have been laid off and lost their jobs.

Not to mention buying records, food and housing became a problem, the old gun failed, and the record market was in a bleak state.

Only then did music critics observe that the sales figures of electronic records were rising instead of falling.

It took the pop music industry nearly ten years to go from rejecting digitalization to embracing it.

The Grammys have not yet begun to realize this.

But this has nothing to do with Abel, he is just a passer-by to Grammy.

Tonight was purely for leisure, watching the fun, and at the same time getting a few more medals for the Music Dream Factory.

Originally, according to the outline, there were some sensitive contents at the end, but because of some idiot, maybe the Internet article needs to be cleaned up again, so I revised the outline to observe the situation.
