Chapter 1093 1093 Criminal Alliance

Hugo's idea is simple to say, but not so easy to implement, because it is a Grammy Awards ceremony, not a temporary show on the roadside.

At large awards ceremony like Grammys, the order of performance, performance time, and performance content are all in particular. Just like after Grammy planned the project to mourn the Cote Copper, the bands participating in the performance must rehearse in advance; and after the project is cancelled, Grammys must re-arrange the performance content in advance, for example, the performance time allocated to Glory to Death is eight minutes. If it is a special program similar to the countdown for the New Year, it must be accurate to seconds.

Therefore, it is not that easy for Honor to steal the day and change the day during the performance.

If it is a singer who uses the master music, Hugo's plan is impossible to implement, because they must hand over the soundtrack to the organizing committee in advance, and the staff will make repeated confirmations to ensure that the wrong soundtrack will not be played during the performance. Fortunately, Honor to Death is the band. Although there are bands who also choose the soundtrack to avoid mistakes in live performances, Honor to Death choose live performance, which also makes Hugo's plan feasible.

However, things are still not simple, because this is a live performance. Not only is Hugo, the lead singer, needed to sing a microphone, but the instruments played by the members also needed to be connected to the speaker. When the singing of Glory to Death deviates from the track, the director in charge of the program only needs to order the speaker to turn off the speaker or cut off the microphone to control the situation. Of course, then the Grammy will need to face a live broadcast gap at that time, which is an absolute live broadcast accident.

Although it is a good choice to face a live broadcast accident in Grammys, the goal of Hugo's plan is obviously more than that. If the glory to death version of "Young Spirit" cannot be appreciated by the audience, then this plan will be meaningless.

Therefore, glory to death requires a crime alliance.

After Henry listened to Neil's explanation, his lazy and casual expression paused for a moment, and then raised his eyebrows slightly, "So... what you mean is that you want to embarrass the Grammy when it is broadcast across the United States."

"Uh... it's better to say this. We want to express our dissatisfaction and persistence in this way, and express the rock we love... Of course, we have always admired Nirvana. It's rare to have such an opportunity to show our understanding of their music." Henry's reaction was really beyond everyone's expectations. Neil looked at his teammates standing around him in a panic and said intermittently, "Playing with Grammys can only be considered an additional gain."

"Add?" Henry's lazy mouth slightly pursed his inner disagreement.

"Henry, aren't you surprised?" Pedro was puzzled by Henry's reaction, and was also a little curious. "Don't you want to stop us? Isn't it what the agent should do?"

The agent's task is to maximize the interests of the artist and minimize the losses. This is the simplest summary.

Henry pondered for a moment, dragging the ending tone, "Should I be surprised?" Henry's eyes fell on Hugo, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he wanted to see through Hugo. Hugo looked calm and calm, and he was not guilty at all, which made Henry's mouth slightly pull, "I don't think so, this is you, right?"

What Henry didn't say is that before working with Glory to Death, he had observed the band for a long time. Now the two sides have collaborated on two more albums. He has enough knowledge of this band. This is a very pure rock band at least so far. So Glory to Death would reject Grammys last year, so Henry would insist on his own opinion when discussing the renewal of the contract with EMI. Naturally, today, after hearing the band's plan and a small accident, Henry accepted it calmly.

This is the glory he knows to death.

"Can I stop this again?" Henry stared at Hugo's eyes and said this, which made Hugo smile.

Henry is indeed very familiar with the band. In this band, Hugo, Fokin, and Neal are actually hard-working, and it is easy to change after making a decision. Although Pedro and Alfonso are easily shaken, they often make the same decision as the other three people after hesitation, which makes the five people come together. This is especially true for matters involving the band's soul and spirit.

This is how it is this time.

The players who originally had the Glory to Death thought it would take a lot of effort to convince Henry to become their criminal alliance. After all, from the perspective of the agent, Glory to Death's behavior is not only a rebellious act, but also a play with fire. Instead of directly provoking the authority of Grammy in performance, it would be better to withdraw. At least not put everything on the table, and everything is possible to be restored.

When an agent hears this, his first reaction should be to stop persuasion and kill all possible bad situations in his infancy.

But Henry was not panicked, that could be explained by his knowledgeableness. He even looked like "I can help too", which was incomprehensible. Looking at Henry's lazy and casual expression, it was not surprising that he would fan the flames in the next second, "You will be more exciting."

So, the members of the Glory to the Death couldn't help but look at each other. However, Hugo looked calm and he knew Henry enough. He might have been a little surprised, but it was still reasonable. There is obviously a reason why their cooperation has been smooth for the past year and a half.

"So, what you mean is, I hope to get those eight minutes of performance without interruption." Henry summarized it briefly, and Neil obviously hadn't come back to his senses, so Hugo nodded and gave affirmation.

Henry held his chin and thought about it carefully, "It's actually not difficult, it only takes a beginning. When you are singing 'Youthful Spirit', the first twenty seconds or... I'm not sure, thirty seconds, the director will admit this mistake if he doesn't succeed in stopping you. If I do it well..." Henry stretched his tail, looking like he was calculating others, and with that lazy expression, it was really wonderful. "We can even let the Grammys take the initiative to admit that you sing the song of Nirvana, which they arranged."

Hugo knew what Henry meant. If the director of the night did not stop the band in the early stage of "Youthful Spirit", then the director would face two choices: the first is to forcefully terminate the performance, which would lead to a live broadcast accident. After the award ceremony, the Grammy would have to break up with Honor until death, and the matter would become bigger and bigger; the second is to let Honor continue to perform until death. The Grammy said on the surface that this was the result of their arrangement, and then put the post-processing in private: for example, banning Honor until death, so that they would not be able to appear on the Grammy next year.

For Grammys, it is actually not difficult to choose. They refuse to recognize the historical status of grunge and new metal rock because of their conservatism. They canceled the memorial session of Cote Coburn because of their conservatism. Obviously, they will also choose to swallow the accident and deal with it privately because of their conservatism. Otherwise, it will become a scandal and Grammys themselves will not be comfortable.

So, how can you make the Grammy swallow your anger? It is crucial to start twenty seconds of "Youthful Spirit".

If Honor begins singing "Young Spirit" until death within twenty seconds, the director team will respond in time and cut off any link such as lights, microphones or audio, they can completely blame the on-site equipment failure, and then lightly cut off the performances after Honor until death.

Or cut off the screen as soon as possible so that the audience in front of the TV cannot see the live broadcast, replace it with videos such as music videos, advertisements or Grammy promotional videos, and then give the program team plenty of time to handle the live.

This is a difficult task, or even an impossible task. It is almost impossible to convince the director to cooperate with Glory until his death. It can only be to find breakthrough points from the person in charge of specific links, such as persuading the sound engineer, do not cut off the microphone sound when receiving the director's notification.

Because at such a large party, the directors and managers are only responsible for the control behind the scenes, and the actual number of people performing the work is very large. If you can find a staff member who is willing to cooperate, control several main links, and spend the first twenty or thirty seconds, things will be done.

But this is obviously not easy, because these willing workers may face unemployment in the future.

Henry gently lit his chin a few times, looked up at Pedro and Alfonso, "You are sure you want to do this, and you know the consequences? The Grammy is not that easy to mess with." Compared to Neil, Fokin and Hugo, Pedro and Alfonso are more likely to fluctuate, and are also the objects of Henry's concern.

But this time, Pedro and Alfonso obviously made up their minds. After Henry received a positive answer from both of them, he confirmed that Glory really wanted to do this until death. So he nodded and flattened his hand, "Okay, I understand, leave the matter to me. You are responsible for doing the rehearsal work well. It is best to surprise me with the performance that night, otherwise my work will be in vain."

Watching Hen use his lazy expression to warn him, Pedro and Alfonso chuckled. Henry glanced at Hugo meaningfully and said, "You must know, I need to ask for some help from Rick." The subtext is that this is a big project, and you must know the hardships and difficulties in it.

The smile on the corner of Hugo's mouth couldn't help but bloom, "Welcome to join the pirate ship of glory to death, I just hope that our end is not death, but glory!"
