Chicago 1990

Chapter 27-Week 4

Old Qiao was tempted, but after he lived such a long time, he still had some concentration. After all, he was not as unbearable as Song Ya and got on Daniel's boat on the spot.

But Daniel did not wait long.

On Sunday morning, Qiao visited a well-known public relations firm in Hollywood, and the quotation from the other party was too far apart from Qiao's psychological expectations, and no cooperation was reached.

In the afternoon, Pablo also came to Los Angeles. Together with the negotiators of Warner Records, he officially showed off to Joe.

This move completely angered Old Joe.

Moreover, the negotiator was just a middle-level producer in Warner Records, and his attitude was quite arrogant. Comparing the two, Old Joe made up his mind that night. He took the initiative to contact Daniel and agreed to cooperate with SBK Records.

Lao Qiao revised the fourth week's publicity schedule and sent out Lori and others, while he was based in Chicago and concentrated on negotiating with SBK Records. It would take about a week to get a specific contract.

Knowing that he was giving the'God Assist' Pablo was madly mad. Like a headless fly, he began to try to reverse the situation with certain'outside moves', such as contacting the Hell Bobcat boss again for a ruling, passed The small actions gave SBK Records a'warning' to the negotiators who came to Chicago, still not giving up hope for Warner Records, etc.However, all these efforts ended in failure except for a little scare to the staff of SKB Records. The big guys who were dedicated to the gang cause did not have so much idle time. Warner also kept restraint after learning that SBK was cut. After all, SBK belongs to EMI. , And this kind of competition is too common in the recording industry.

Fortunately, he didn’t know Song Ya’s role in this matter. At this time, Song Ya had a check of $10,000 in his pocket, as well as the expected income of $150,000 from the gambling agreement. Los Angeles returned with a load.

At school, he still has many things to do.

On the BMI side, after receiving the protests from the affirmative organization and the'interrogation' from Congressman Underwood, as Daniel said, the progress was accelerated, Song Ya's membership was quickly completed.

But this is no longer a problem that can be solved simply by mailing a membership certificate.

Principal's office.

A black female assistant in the office of Congressman Underwood came to visit and she needed to communicate with Song Ya about the specific process of Friday night's'ceremony'.

"People from BMI will definitely come, right?"

The female assistant was very serious and confirmed one by one, "Then the principal will speak first, and then BMI will give Mr. Song..."

"Call me Alex, or APLUS."

"Okay, after APLUS accepts the membership from BMI, there is..."

"There is also a small award, it’s my agent..." Song Ya is pushing everything to Hayden now. If BMI settles later in the fall, he will also push Hayden out. Misunderstandings are all misunderstandings. Don't correct me. , "He came from PR, probably behind BMI. The award-giving person, uh... is actually my agent, because no one knows him, so..."

"That is your agent will pretend to be the award-giving party?" The female assistant grasped the key to Song Ya's hesitation.

"Yeah, yeah."

"This should be no problem, the next step is APLUS, you give a testimonial, have you finished the speech?."

"Uh, not yet."

"What about the outline?"

"Here, I brought it." Song Ya handed over the speech in his hand.

"Emmmmm............" The female assistant focused on reviewing the manuscripts, one by one, "Thanks to BMI......Thanks to the awarding party magazine...Thanks to the music teacher...Thanks to the math teacher...Thanks to the principal...Thanks...Thanks...all of these There is no problem, but the part of expressing gratitude to the congressman needs to be placed in the most emotional paragraph of the whole speech, so..." He used a reverse symbol to change the part of gratitude to the congressman to a satisfactory position.

Song Ya looked at the principal, and the principal nodded with a smile, "No problem." He agreed, "Uh...Would you like to give me a sample thank you congressman, can I copy it?"

The female assistant drew a piece of paper from the bag and handed it over. "The councillor's office will not admit to providing this."

"It turned out to be..." Song Ya secretly complained, "I understand, I understand." Take the things and put them away.

"The congressman will speak at the end and will stay at your school for thirty to forty-five minutes. The whole process will be photographed. Some media reporters will follow. Please do your work well." The female assistant said to the principal.

"I understand, I understand." The principal continued nodding.

"Okay, let's confirm the specific itinerary next. The congressman will shake hands with you after the speech. Your school staff should line up with the camera coming from the side like this..."

According to the principal’s private disclosure, Mr. Underwood of Illinois is preparing to run for the Federal House of Representatives. As a white, black votes are his shortcomings. The'BMI discrimination incident' he created is a very good exposure for him. opportunity.

Song Ya felt that there must be some private transactions between the principal and the councillors, but those were not what he could understand.

The congressman’s ambition made Song Ya very busy this week, so she had to leave Ellie in the cold for the time being.

But Ellie was not idle either. Not only did she brag to her classmates about the experience of being taken to the studio by Song Ya to record songs (actually not), she also talked to her girlfriends about the details of their affairs...

Deduct points, deduct points again!The rumors spread to Song Ya's ears, and he felt very dissatisfied, but he didn't have the energy to deal with them right now. After all, a genuine girlfriend could save him a lot of things in school.

Busy, various preparation activities are coming to an end, and Friday is almost here.

At this time, Eric found home.

"The boss wants to send you to talk to Pablo and make peace." Eric conveyed what Old Joe said, "The cooperation with SBK has been negotiated, and it will be no good for Pablo to do anything like this. "

"Why let me go!" Song Ya didn't want to be troubled.

"The boss said that your kid is very talkative, and isn't Tony following Lori?" Eric said, "Would you like him to talk to you on the phone?"

"Don't, forget, I'll go find Pablo, but there is no guarantee of success!"

Song Ya had no choice but to dial Pablo's cell phone.

He wanted to call Tony first, but when he talked to Tony on the phone last week, the elder brother kept keeping secret about the whereabouts of Lori and Pablo. He simply fulfilled Tony’s loyalty and tried not to make it difficult for him. .

Pablo quickly answered the call.

"Mr. Pablo, I want to talk to you in the past, is it convenient now?" Song Ya tried to ask after a simple greeting.

"Old Joe asked you to come to me?" Pablo asked back.

"Yes, the boss said he wanted to make peace."

"All right, then make peace."

"?" Song Ya was very surprised, "Uh... you just agreed?"

"I lost, I lost thoroughly."

Pablo was in a calm mood: "Before the cliff, the victor handed out his pitying hand, either accepting it or falling into the abyss."
