Chicago 1990

Chapter 1050

'Click!'

The next day, Song Ya was awakened by the gentle closing of the door. He opened his eyes. Amy and Shakira were both present, that is, Mira just left.

The suite in the studio lounge had no windows, and the time could not be confirmed by the natural light outside. He glanced at the alarm clock on the bedside table, and it was just after six o'clock.

But I had to get up. The filming task was very tight. I had to quickly finish filming his scene and return to Chicago. He yawned and got up to wash.

"Today's shooting schedule." In the dressing room outside, Taraji had already prepared breakfast.

"Ok."

Song Ya took a brief look. The director Larry arranged to make up shots of the football match during the day. It was about close-up shots of his own dribbling and shooting. The screen did not need to take care of the stands, which was more economical.

In the evening there are confession and kiss scenes with Mila in the grove.

"Another fulfilling and busy day!" He sighed as he ate.

"There are many media who want to interview you about the new president of Sony Columbia Records." Taraji said.

"Did Rikrubin call me back?"

"No."

"That's all pushed."

Song Ya wanted to communicate with Riklubin before expressing his position.

Motura failed to'restoration', so the current situation is simple. He only has the position of manager of MJ. Since MJ rejected Hayden, preparations for public opinion on his side have begun.

Just so, didn't MJ suddenly marry a white nurse in Australia?This is no less than a bolt from the blue for MJ’s fans, especially female fans. What does the ex-wife Elvis’ daughter say is that she has the same status and value, and the nurse named Debiro not only looks popular, but is also very old. Nearly forty years old!She was born in May 8th!

It was like a flower stuck in a cow dung, and his fans were heartbroken.

One MJ fan vowed to post on the fan page of the American music website, saying that it was definitely not MJ's intention to marry Debiro. He was manipulated by people around him.

This post attracted Dilei’s attention. After discussing with Song Ya, the two and Ms. Sloan quickly finalized and used the opinions of that post as a basis to concoct a conspiracy theory: MJ was indeed controlled by a dangerous villain around him. , The manager Motula is the behind-the-scenes BOSS, the big bad guy, and then reasonably extended the black material of Motula's racial discrimination, monitoring of its artists, and suppression of African stars such as Mariah Carey and APLUS.

Originally, MJ was not seen by tabloids. In addition, there are now many delicious, lazy and "flexible" entertainment reporters who specialize in squatting on the Internet at various gossip sources to copy news. These carefully crafted new posts have been spread through the account of Dilai .

After MJ fans and melon-eating crowds were led, some people began to call him to replace Motula, or expressed that they did not understand why such a person should be kept by his side.

"Since Motura has decided not to go back to Sony Columbia Records last night, I think from today onwards, the mainstream media will have no more scruples."

In the afternoon, after Song Yagang finished a goal and celebrated wildly with his teammates, Ms. Sloan hurried back from Washington.

"hope so."

I still lack influence on the mainstream media. When it comes to another black light, A+CN, Inner City Broadcasting Company, BET and other black media will be'closed on time', and the dishes can only be made as delicious as possible. The initiative is still in the mainstream media themselves.

"Thanks, Sloan, well done." He gave Sloan a big hug.

"Ok."

Sloan stood upright, without responding from his body, and continued to talk about business. "Underwood hinted to me that he put a lot of pressure on Howard Stringer, so it was Rick Rubin who qualified last night. You take the time to call Thank him."

"This guy, after everything is done, he always bluffs and points at himself to ask for credit. In fact, how much effect he really played... Who knows?"

Such things can't be explained to each other, Song Ya expressed distrust of Underwood, a habitual offender of points deception.

"A thank you call will not lose a piece of meat," Sloan said.

"Of course, I will fight. You rest first, and I'll be back soon."

The crew was urging, Song Ya opened the door of his makeup car and ran back to the court to take another scene where he was intercepted by his opponent because he was too alone.

"Pass the ball to me! Didn't you see me running out of space!?"

Mila, a female teammate disguised as a man, rushed over and yelled in her ears and complained.

In this episode, the two are in conflict due to a misunderstanding, Song Ya pushes her away with a stern face, ignoring her, cold and violent.

"card!"

Old Larry yelled to stop, and after a while he made an announcement with satisfaction, "Uh, APLUS, someone called me just now, saying that the people from 20th Century Fox will be here later and visit you." He called to hurried back to the vanity car. Song Ya.

"I know."

Song Ya nodded and said that he knew it. Since yesterday he expressed his intention to invest in the Titanic to Xiao Lizi’s agent, the president of Fox Pictures personally called in the morning. They then found their agent, Donovan, to help. At noon, he simply called Yeremov, who was in Los Angeles, to the Fox headquarters, and made it clear that he was going to pursue a frantic pursuit of himself, a gold master who could potentially save him from bankruptcy.

"By the way, what did the people at Jesse Helms say?"

The Titanic project has burned more than 100 million, and can't wait for the long delay in time. Fox Pictures is in urgent need of life-saving money, so this investment should really enter the negotiation stage and the results should be quick.Although there is a competitor of Paramount Pictures, the initiative is entirely in my hands. I have money and are willing to invest. But in no hurry, let Yeremov talk first and try to get the best investment conditions. , The key is that the box office share and follow-up income are not pitted, 60 million is enough for Hollywood single-shot action blockbusters, this is not a small amount of money.

The leading role of the man with facial paralysis was relaxed and happy. Song Ya returned to the vanity car and continued talking with Sloan. This was her main purpose for going to Washington.

"The softening of the special prosecutor's attitude should be due to the black material of Danburton's extramarital affairs in Gordon's hands."

As expected, Sloan said: "I have also asked Gordon to postpone the revelation, but the investigation still has to continue and strive to dig more. This means that we have a nuclear bomb in our hands."

"I knew I wouldn't spend so much money to hire a lawyer..."

The wonderful unfolding, Song Ya and Sloan had never expected that Jesse Helms would do so much for Dunburton before, and could not help but regret it a little.

"What?" Sloan didn't hear his murmur.

"Nothing." Song Ya shook his head.

Filming continued, and the two took time to chat. After communicating important matters, Sloan asked about his meeting with Ovitz last night.

"Ovitz did not bring me any surprises."

Ovitz arrived very late last night, and the two chatted for a long time. They were not as good as Song Ya. He guessed that it was because Ovitz had planned to return to Sony Columbia Records after getting Motula. The posture of the savior came to occupy a strong position, but all this fell into vain with the appearance of the dark horse Riklubin.

So Ovitz talked about the good relationship between him and the top executives of the headquarters all night. After all, it was he who facilitated the acquisition of Columbia Pictures, Sony Columbia Records and Universal by Sony and Panasonic. It's not surprising that the relationship there is close.

But Song Ya doesn't need it very much now, and they are scattered with Sony, and the high-level over there will not reconcile himself for Ovitz's face.

"A CEO who has just been swept out by Hollywood's Seventh Day has come to see you across the U.S. at such a critical moment, which shows how important you are in his mind." Sloan said.

"Well, Disney Emperor Eisner gave him 140 million severance pay, but at the same time he also signed a non-competition clause not to hold positions in other companies in the film industry, so the other six major Hollywood companies are gone, CAA and William Morris. When the major brokerage companies join forces to block him again, a star like me is hard to find now."

Song Ya agreed with Sloan, "The problem now is: Ovitz sticks to me and I don't want to leave. He must get something from me, and his use of me is not of high value, I think he will also Understand this, so now he is a bit annoying."

"How to say?" Sloan asked.

"The one hundred and forty million Eisner promised him still has a turning point. Disney's board of directors passed it, but shareholders disagree. They want to initiate a lawsuit against the board..."

The reason why Eisner can be called the emperor is that Eisner’s control over Disney’s board of directors reached its peak after successively driving out Katzenberg and Ovitz. He bought many directors and senior executives with options and super high salaries. In fact, The contract he and Ovitz gave during the honeymoon period was also very good, so Ovitz was able to use Eisner to drive him away and dig up to 140 million.

However, the shareholders did not want to continue to bear with them. Their shares were diluted year after year by the options and super high salaries that Eisner gave him and the executives. If they didn’t do anything, they would be doomed. They began to build Eisner and The board of directors replied, claiming to initiate a lawsuit.

Therefore, it is not certain how much Ovitz's 140 million can get in the end. It depends on the outcome of the suit between Disney shareholders and the board of directors. This is 140 million, and the lawsuit is likely to last for many years.

"Ovitz desperately showed me that his contacts are vast. He revealed that the world's second richest man, legendary investor Warren Buffett, and Apple founder and Pixar animation owner Jobs were all backing him against Eisner. Behind Jobs is Larry Ellison, the founder of Oracle. Barabara..."

Song Ya learned Ovitz's tone and said to Sloan.

"Those big guys supported him at the time, they were just happy to see him drive Eisner away, right?"

Sloan laughed and said: "But he failed, so he lost the use value of those tycoons, otherwise, why should he chase you like crazy?"

"Yes, he has made the social circle so much that it doesn't make any sense to me. After all, I don't plan to change the brokerage company for the time being. He is not the original broker who can consider carefully from the customer's point of view. He is now in his hands. Billionaires who are rich but can't find a new career direction."

Song Ya said: "He wants to get more from me than I thought, because we lack trust in each other... It seems that I want to hold on to some of my handle, so I just said he became a little annoying ."

"Handle? If you don't cooperate with him, will he be your enemy in the Barn case?" Sloan asked.

"It's not that if he dares to threaten so, he will immediately become my enemy."

Song Ya shook his head, "It's still the one hundred and forty million. He hinted to me that Disney's payment method may not be entirely cash. Maybe he will bring the Metropolis record discount out of Disney, because he can't go back to the film company because of the terms of competition. But you can join the recording industry...maybe there is also journalism. Do you remember that he once said that he would take some ace newsmen away from ABC? Without Disney’s distribution system, Metropolis Records is worthless to me. The potential of signed singers prepared by record companies will be buried."

"That means we have one more game object."

After all, it was Ovitz, who used to call the wind and rain, Sloan was a little worried, "If he has a bad heart, the destructive power will be amazing."

"The constant fighting with people makes me feel a little tired, Sloan..."

Song Ya didn’t want to add an enemy of Ovitz’s level to fight back and forth. Motura, the former president of one of the six major record companies, is still alive and well. “Anyway, I decided to skip the stage of mutual trial and game. , First do business with him and become friends and partners."

"what business?"

"The publishing house, Litman also called me today. The news that I intend to spend 60 million to invest in the Titanic spread quickly. Litman was afraid that I would change my mind. He said that he had already divested the asset package. For those conservative media, the acquisition negotiations can start again. And I will sign a betting agreement with Ovitz, and he will be responsible for the acquisition on my behalf. Goodman and Hamlin’s law firm assisted and supervised, from If Litman keeps down more prices, Ovitz can get more commissions. This is his old business, and it is also his first trial and cooperation."

Song Ya replied: "It just so happens that I don't have the energy to play a marathon negotiation with Litman, so I'll hand that guy to Ovitz."
