Chapter 59: Chapter 59 Scarborough Fair



"Jon, do you know, my dream has always been to be an actress and a singer. Now I\'ve achieved both, and I feel very happy."

"By the way, do you have any dreams?" Ava rested her chin on Hardy\'s chest, her big eyes blinking at him.

"My dreams?"

Hardy murmured.

Of course, he had dreams. In his previous life, his family was poor when he was a child, so he grew up wanting to earn more money. After graduating from university, he went into business and achieved some success. Later, he invested abroad, but was unexpectedly killed by some competitors. Otherwise, he wouldn\'t have crossed over.

Hardy thought to himself "My current dream is just to earn a lot of money, And to seek revenge!"

But based on their age from his previous life, those guys probably haven\'t been born yet. Moreover, this world and the world of his previous life are completely different planes, he probably won\'t ever see them in this lifetime.

"Yes, what\'s your dream?" Ava curiously asked.

Hardy hesitated for a moment, his expression very solemn as he said, "My dream is world peace, a world full of love, where doves of peace soar in the sky holding olive branches, spreading the radiance of love across the earth."

Ava looked at Hardy with a bewildered expression.

She couldn\'t believe him, a gangster wants peace.

Hardy didn\'t care whether Ava believed him or not. Holding her face in his hands, he said, "It just so happens you have two days to go and take a set of artistic photos."

"With clothes or without clothes?"

Smack.

Hardy slapped the lower back of the woman hard, making a crisp sound.

"Of course, you have to wear clothes."

The "The Wild Bunch" crew completed preparations and set off for New Mexico. Before leaving, Ava told Hardy to visit her.

After Ava left, Hardy took the record and found Pele, the person in charge of the Columbia Broadcasting Company in Los Angeles, asking the radio station to help play Ava\'s song.

It was a small matter, Pele easily agreed.

In the radio broadcasting studio, the host picked up the record and looked at it. There was a note attached, a new movie insert song sent by the Noah Film Company.

This kind of promotion was very common.

The host didn\'t pay much attention.

This was an evening chat show; the two male hosts, Paul and Finkl, kept joking and entertaining, somewhat like a later talk show, considered the golden time slot of the radio station.

The two of them were a bit tired. Paul spoke into the microphone, "Let\'s relax with a song. This is a new song by \'Ava Gardner\', a newcomer, and the song title is \'Scarborough Fair\' it is an insert song from a movie."

The indoor microphone was turned off, and the host\'s voice could no longer be heard by the audience. Paul turned to his companion Finkl and said, "A new singer with an unheard of name, I haven\'t heard any good song from any new singer lately, this song better be good ."

"There are many songs like this every year. Let\'s not bother with it, let\'s just have a coffee break."

The music played, Ava\'s beautiful voice rang out.

Paul\'s hand holding the coffee froze, the melody was melancholic and melodious, touching deep within.

This feeling was so wonderful.

Finkl beside him was similarly attracted by the song.

Three minutes later, as the song ended, they hadn\'t even touched their coffee.

The song finished.

Paul eagerly ran to the microphone, his voice slightly excited as he said

"Listener friends, I don\'t know how you feel after listening to this song. I was really shocked just now. I dare say this is the most beautiful song I have ever heard this year."

"This is really a rare good song. Let me introduce this song again. The name of the song is \'Scarborough Fair\', and the new singer is \'Ava Gardner\', who should be I\'m a newcomer, this song is from a scene in the movie."

"Oh, it seems like there\'s only so much information. It\'s so irresponsible that I didn\'t even write the name of the movie. But this song is really beautiful. I was really moved by it just now. I, I dare say this song will definitely become a classic, this singer named Ava Gardner has such a good voice, I like her voice very much."

Paul praised the song without hesitation. .

Not only because it\'s his job to help with the advertisement, but because he really liked it.

Just then, the producer\'s voice came through the host\'s headphones. "We\'ve received several calls asking to replay the song; they really loved it."

To be honest, Paul and the others hadn\'t had enough.

Paul immediately spoke into the microphone, "Just now, the station has received several calls from listeners, and even now, more people are calling in, asking for a replay of this song. In response to audience requests, we will play \'Scarborough Fair\' again."

The song\'s voice flowed through the radio, reaching Los Angeles and even thousands of households in California, attracting countless people.

People liked to turn on the radio while driving, and the song drifted out from car radios, lingering on the city streets.

After the second play, Even more people called in to the station.

Many expressed that they still hadn\'t had enough and hoped for another replay.

Ava\'s song became popular, countless people remembered Ava Gardner\'s name and the song \'Scarborough Fair\'.

Of course, many people were curious about the movie it was from, and quite a few had decided to go see it when it premiered.

CBS executive Pele received a report from his subordinates, hearing that the station\'s ratings had increased significantly because of this song, which surprised him.

He had only intended to do a small favor for a friend, he hadn\'t expected this song to cause such a sensation, significantly boosting the station\'s ratings.

He thought for a moment,

Then he hurriedly ordered his secretary to copy a record and send it by plane that day to CBS headquarters in New York, where they would play it there, as the Los Angeles station only covered the West Coast.

Not even two days later, the song became a hit on the East Coast as well.

Many newspapers reported on the song, praising its enchanting melody and the singer\'s perfect performance. At this moment, Ava still didn\'t know she had become a popular singer; countless people wanted to know more about her, but there was no channel.

Hardy felt that the publicity effect these days was good, so he decided to release the second move, completely making Ava famous.

Two days later, The Los Angeles Times and The New York Times simultaneously published a news piece.

The news content is very peculiar. It starts with the simplified lyrics of a song.
