You know, Thriller was the biggest album in the world,
迈克尔是最重磅的明星
Michael was the biggest star,
他想要为《颤栗》开展巡演
and he wanted to go out and tour Thriller.
但是约瑟夫 也就是 杰克逊先生
But Joseph, you know, uh, Mr. Jackson,
却有其他想法
had other ideas.
他想把全家人重新聚在一起

他请了唐·金作为巡回演出的推荐推广人
He brought in Don King as the recommended promoter of the tour.
他拉来了兄弟们和杰克逊夫人 凯瑟琳
And he got the brothers and Mrs. Jackson, Katherine.
所有人都表示支持
Everybody was all for it.
但说实话 迈克尔反倒很犹豫
Michael was hesitant, to be honest.
他觉得自己独自创作出了《颤栗》
He felt like he had done Thriller on his own,
他想以独唱歌♥手的身份巡回演出
and he wanted to tour as a solo artist.
但最终他还是被说服去和兄弟们巡演
But he was persuaded to go along with it.
这次巡演是一次营销的大丰收
This tour is a bonanza of marketing,
每个赞助商都想来分一杯羹
so everybody wants to get in on this.
桂格燕麦公♥司♥ 他们做了笔交易
And Quaker Oats, you know, they had made a deal.
他们与杰克逊一家达成了一项初步协议
They had a tentative deal with the Jacksons
成为了这次巡演的赞助商
to be the sponsors of this thing.
