Xu Can didn't expect to meet Taylor in Sony's annual meeting.

Taylor Swift, it seems she signed with Universal Music later, right?

In his past life, he only listened to songs and didn't know much about Taylor's situation.

If asked who he likes most among Western pop female singers, Xu Can's first reaction would definitely be Taylor.

He had been listening to her songs since his student days.

Unexpectedly, he could meet her like this in the parallel world.

"Can we take a photo?"

"Of course!"

Xu Can took out his phone and took a photo together.

Because his phone was a Nokia N95, the front camera frame was relatively small.

The two needed to get very close to take a full picture; Xu Can felt Taylor's cheeks were almost sticking to his, and the faint fragrance of her Chanel shampoo hit his face.

"Ok, let's add a Face friend, and I'll send it to you later."

"Too good!"

Taylor was like an ordinary little girl, excited and jumping.

"By the way, did you sign with Sony Music? Why are you here for New Year's Eve?"

"Uh, actually I was brought by my agent, I didn't sign with a big record company."

Taylor smiled awkwardly.

After chatting, Xu Can learned that Taylor didn't sign with Universal this year, but signed with a "Big Machine Records."

Other big factories would interfere with Taylor's creation, and this small company only had Taylor as an artist, so they would respect her free creation.

Taylor's father even participated in the investment and became one of the shareholders.

"So that's it..."

Xu Can remembered, Taylor seemed to have been deeply involved in an album copyright dispute for a while.

Big Machine Records boss Scott Borchetta was a profit-seeking businessman; after Taylor's success, he turned around and sold the album to Scooter Braun.

In this resale, Taylor was completely kept in the dark, so much so that she lost the ownership of all her albums and couldn't sing her own songs!

Later they also planned cyberbullying against Taylor, causing netizens who didn't know the truth to attack Taylor crazily.

That period was really the darkest time in her life, fortunately she survived later.

As for the current parallel world, Taylor just released her first self-titled album *Taylor Swift* this year.

The album included songs like "Tim McGraw," "Picture to Burn," "Teardrops on My Guitar," etc.,

and won 19th place in this year's Billboard 200 albums.

For a newcomer, this was already a good result, enough to prove Taylor's talent.

So her agent wanted Taylor to come to this Sony annual meeting to get familiar,

if she could hook up with a famous producer or cooperate with a famous singer, Taylor would soar and explode quickly.

"Taylor... if you don't mind, I'll call you that..."

"Of course, we are friends once we meet." Taylor's smile was very bright.

"Mm, Taylor, although it's not very pleasant, I have a suggestion, you can refer to it."

"Good, what do you want to say?"

Xu Can had a kind of neighbor brother's affinity, making Taylor naturally trust him quite a bit.

"I heard some rumors before, your company's Scott Borchetta has some problems, I'm afraid he will ignore your development later and do some profit-seeking actions."

"Ah? Really?"

Taylor covered her mouth in surprise.

She thought Xu Can was just chatting with her and flirting with her.

Unexpectedly, they just met, and he talked to her about such a serious topic.

But Xu Can's eyes were very clear, not the kind that had ulterior motives; he seemed to really want to help her.

And after a period of observation, Taylor also noticed that Scott Borchetta was relatively snobbish, and there were some frictions during the cooperation process.

It's just that Taylor was naive at the time, thinking the boss would help her and be good to her.

Now thinking about it, what Xu Can said was not unreasonable.

"Of course I'm just saying, I don't mean to interfere with your singing career."

"It's okay, first time meeting, you can seriously care about my development, I'm already very moved."

Taylor herself was a person whose sensibility was greater than rationality, otherwise she wouldn't have had an explosive desire to create after breaking up, writing so many popular songs.

Xu Can's move to care about her actually made Taylor feel a bit warm in her heart.

"I will pay attention later, I have been creating a new album recently, and often quarrel with him. If it feels wrong, then I will just leave hahaha."

Taylor Swift chuckled.

"That's good, if there is a problem, you can contact me, I will introduce you to Sony Music."

Xu Can was already very familiar with Sony Entertainment Chairman Stringer, and he was Sony Entertainment's signature figure.

Introducing a female singer to a Sony-affiliated record company was not a big problem.

Or Xu Can could start a record company himself, let Taylor sign with himself, and include the future Western diva in his harem... no, include her under his command.

"Xu, my agent is calling me, excuse me first, very happy to be friends with you."

"Me too, very happy to meet you."

Watching Taylor's excited back as she left, Xu Can couldn't help but smile knowingly.

Unexpectedly, he could meet that Taylor Swift like this.

Speaking of which, she doesn't seem to be in love yet, right? The first partner was in 2008, dating singer Jonas.

Then it was out of control, dating one and breaking up with one, and a song was born like this.

Xu Can suddenly remembered the moment when they took a photo just now, Taylor's cheeks almost stuck to his, and his heart couldn't help but ripple a little.

The filming of *John Wick* was in progress.

After New Year's Eve, it was already 2007.

Compatriots in the country were enjoying the New Year's holiday, while Xu Can was still filming the film arduously.

Originally in director David Leitch's plan, Xu Can needed to participate in systematic training such as combat training, firearms training, CQB tactics, etc.

Keanu Reeves underwent strict special training before filming the movie,

and the fighting and shooting in the film were all completed by him personally.

He could even achieve certain good results in competition-level CQB shooting,

if he really took a gun against a group of gangsters, maybe Keanu Reeves could really cause a lot of casualties!

As for Xu Can, he naturally didn't need to train in advance.

From the moment he awakened the character, Xu Can could transform into the legendary killing god, John Wick, at any time!

Therefore, the film's filming progress was even faster than *Spider-Man*!

In just a few days, Xu Can had finished filming the plot of the gang boss's son coming to provoke.

About to enter the revenge link of the protagonist John Wick!

"John, I'm sorry to hear about your wife's passing, please accept my condolences. Perhaps it was just a coincidence, we met again in this way."

"..."

"John, let's not be blinded by impulse, let's solve this matter rationally like civilized people..."

*Snap!* The phone hung up mercilessly.

John Wick didn't say a word, acting as calmly as a robot.

Only from the slight light in the dim room could one capture the monstrous anger in his eyes!

The gang boss was facing a great enemy.

"Prepare the manpower."

"How many people?" **CHAPTER 64**
