American Life

Chapter 152 Hall of Fame

"Why are you two here?" Ivanie looked at the two of them with a smile on her face, looking like they were gossiping.

"Come over with Taylor." Charlie put his arms around Taylor's shoulders and leaned towards him.

Taylor seemed a little at a loss for a moment. She knew that Ivanie was Charlie's subordinate. The previous relationship between the two was more revealed to the people around them. At least at the public level, Taylor was currently only a singer favored by Charlie.So, even though this was an unspoken thing, it still made Taylor look a little panicked.

"Hello, Ivanie," she greeted politely.

"I thought you were back in Chicago." Charlie asked casually.

"I am not a work machine. I am currently on annual leave, 20 days in total." Ivanie raised her hair and deliberately mentioned this matter, fearing that Charlie would think that she was fishing while on a business trip.

"I'm not that stingy with great heroes." Charlie quickly clarified.

"By the way, why did you choose to take annual leave at this time?" Charlie asked curiously.

"There's...no choice. You can take a break if you want. Besides, I'm really a little tired." Ivanie pondered for a moment and then explained.

Charlie knew as soon as he heard that she was hiding something from him.

As a boss, he must care about his subordinates. This is called the boss's humanistic care, so he continued to ask:

"Is it because of the matter with your father?"

Ivanie was a little tongue-tied for a while, complaining in her heart how this guy is like a roundworm in her stomach, he knows what he thinks.

After such a long meal, I could only admit helplessly: "Because of your matter, I had a big quarrel with him. I want him to agree to your conditions. This may not generate enough profits, but it can win A good reputation, he also understands this truth, but he has some criticisms about working at PB Company. I had serious differences with him and said many harsh words."

It turned out that Meili Resort Group would agree to her conditions at that time, and Ivanni played a key factor. She actually didn't tell her about it. She must have been troubled by her father's relationship.

"Well, why don't you join us? We just have to take a trip around Tennessee." Charlie said immediately.

At this time, it was naturally his turn to take action to persuade Ivanni, or to comfort her. In short, she could not be allowed to leave the company, even if there was a small chance, it should be avoided.

"Isn't this not good?" Ivanie looked at the two of them, feeling like they were on their honeymoon. If she, an outsider, joined in, wouldn't it dampen their interest?

Before Charlie could speak, he smiled and said this time: "It's nothing. I was looking for friends to join this trip before, but none of them are in Nashville."

"Come on, what can you do alone? At least I can look after your safety." Charlie said with a smile.

"Why do you listen to your tone? I'm like a child. But don't forget, without me before, you couldn't handle the financing problem. And this time." Ivani quickly mentioned the previous time at this time. things.

"That's natural. Of course I will never forget these kindnesses, so you have to give me a chance to express your gratitude and make up for it, right? You can't just not give me this little face, right?" Charlie said again.

After Charlie's repeated persuasion, Ivanie finally relaxed.

"Come on, let's go inside and walk around."

The three of them mixed in the crowd and walked through the winding semi-circular dome corridor like a space-time tunnel. Suddenly, there was a huge exhibition hall in front of them, which was the core area of ​​the Country Music Hall of Fame.

The name is called the Hall of Fame, and naturally the celebrities who have made outstanding contributions in the history of country music are on display.

"Harkent Williams is considered the father of country music and wrote many classic country music songs such as 'Where's Your Laughter' and 'Sad Rose.'

Known as the "Voice of Country Music," George Jones is a legendary performer and songwriter known for his soulful singing and passionate lyrics, including "Take Me Back Home" and "White Lightning." .

Jazz Pert is an outstanding guitarist and music producer who has produced records for many famous artists, such as Elvis Presley and Jimmie Rodgers.

Johnny Cash is known for his soulful vocals and lyrics about love, loss and life, such as "Walk the Highway in San Antonio" and "Step by Step."

As the three of them walked along, Taylor Swift was like a tour guide in the Hall of Fame, introducing them endlessly.

Charlie had only seen Taylor's talent before, but now he could gradually feel that behind her dazzling talent, she was actually inseparable from hard work.

"Would you like to make a wish?" Charlie turned around and asked Taylor while walking backwards.

"That's right." Taylor immediately closed his eyes, gestured to the cross with both hands, and made a wish to a certain god.

Those who didn't know thought she was still a devout believer, but they didn't know that this was just cramming.

"I'm very optimistic about you Taylor. I think you are the most talented country music singer in the new century." Ivanie looked at Taylor, her eyes suddenly became a little envious for some reason.

She could feel the exuberance on Taylor's surface, and she could also recognize the conviction in her heart.

She is a determined mover, compared to herself, she is just a wandering wanderer. Her eyes are full of fog and the future is uncertain.

Compared to Taylor's freedom, she is just a canary that has been locked in a cage with her last name.

On the other side, Charlie suddenly thought of another thing. He thought of Taylor's future. He knew that Taylor Swift's style would gradually change in the future, from country music to pop style.

This way of course can earn more dollars, but it also loses her reputation in the country music industry. When people mention her in the future, they will only say that she is a pretty good country music singer, and she is as good as the real big dippers in the country music industry. There is quite a distance.

That's all, she can do whatever she likes. At this point, money is no longer the only deciding factor, inner comfort and smoothness are the most important.

Charlie looked at Ivanie next to Taylor and saw that she didn't know if she was affected by Taylor at this time. She closed her eyes directly, crossed her hands on her chest and prayed devoutly.

"What wish did you make?" When she opened her eyes, Charlie Rossi couldn't help but ask.

"It won't work if you say it. How about you, maybe one?" Ivanie smiled.

"I only ask for the gods in the east, but it's a pity that this land is not under their jurisdiction." Charlie turned and walked forward.
