Chicago 1990

'Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!'

On the weekend, Song Ya was carrying a bag and saw Cassiti as soon as she entered the gymnasium. She was swinging the racket alone, and the white badminton was flying up and down in the air. The sports skirt seemed to be specially shortened. , The beautiful hip line flashes from time to time with exercise.

"Hey, come to practice on weekends?" Song Ya said hello as he walked into the squash court.

Cassidy immediately dropped his racket and followed quickly. At the door, he slowed down slightly and observed the old Mike who was leaning against the door looking down at the newspaper, and then ran into the door with a smile, "I know you will come this weekend." She took the initiative to hug Song Ya's neck and tiptoe.

She had just changed from a girl to a woman and she was very enthusiastic. She stuck her body to Song Ya desperately during a long kiss. When she noticed her big hand stroking her short skirt, she immediately uttered a groan of ecstasy.

"I'm going to prepare for the game, how about you? Will the badminton team also practice on the weekend?" Song Ya put his head back and looked at her meaningfully.

"I just want to be with you." She confessed emotionally.

"You are very brave, Cassidy." Song Ya put her down, opened the equipment bag, took out the racket, and threw one to her, "Play squash with me?"

"Okay, I'm not very good at it."

"I teach you."

The two laughed while practicing like a couple who had been together for a long time, "So you want to quit the orchestra?" Song Ya asked.

"Yes, I... um... I'm afraid of getting you into trouble. You know, those girls have terrible observation skills." Cassidy said, "And I don't want to bear their cold talk anymore."

"Actually it doesn't matter, I'm used to it anyway."

"Uh, how are you going to tell Fergie about us?"

"Huh?" Song Ya stopped, "What's the matter with us?"

"It's us... you, me, what's up with us?" Kasidi pointed to Song Ya and then to herself.

"Cassidy, aren't you?"

Song Ya said clearly, "As I told you, the love affair of singers is only for the outside. Isn't it good for us to maintain this relationship?"

"Keep it..." Cassidy understood, and she bit her lip. "Like those girls around rock stars?"

"Yeah, I like you Kasidi very much." Song Ya pulled her hand and was evasive.

"I thought……"

"Come on, we are all eleventh graders. It's time to think like adults. When you came to me so actively, did you come to be my girlfriend?"

"I...I..." Cassidy shook her head, tears streaming out, and it happened that the other students were talking on the court outside, "I'm leaving, they will gossip."

The girl covered her eyes with the back of her hand and rushed out of the squash court in despair.

Song Ya sighed. At that time, looking at Cassiti in the parking lot under the rain, there was an apocalypse. It was the same as the last time I got a clip from a certain movie by Xiao Lizi. This time it is a two-minute movie clip. It's about a middle-aged man who drove to strike up a conversation with a good white girl who was caught in the rain on the side of the road. Song Ya did it, and he really succeeded. He also completed the last time that her dad Vic McGee led the stormtroopers on the A+ record. The oath made at the time.

"You think too much, Cassidy."

Forget it, he is not the kind of entangled person. He picked up the ball and the racket that Cassiti dropped. He focused on high-intensity exercises in accordance with the training plan given by the physical education teacher.

Cassiti really quit the orchestra later, and the intersection between the two seemed to disappear, and Song Ya didn't have time to manage, because the deadline for Sony Columbia Records to release i hate u i love u was getting closer.

In early November, Song Ya arrived in New York with the strongest lineup he could currently have.

Sony Columbia Records headquarters, "It's been a long time since I went back here." Song Ya and others were arranged in a small meeting room, and Motula couldn't see them naturally. Their opponent was only a lawyer who had never met.

"We are here this time to perform the notification procedure. After one working day, if Mr. APLUS and Ms. Fergie’s i hate ui love u are not officially issued by you, Goodman and Howard Law Firm will represent Mr. APLUS and The two clients of Miss Fergie initiated related lawsuits against you."

Goodman read to the manuscript.

"OK." The lawyer agreed indifferently, got up and left, leaving everyone in the conference room.

"Now Motula has three choices. We will not issue i hate u i love u. We immediately filed a lawsuit and absolutely won. We have already prepared the relevant evidence very well. Of course, the court may drag it for a while."

Returning to the study war room in Tribeca, Samuel said: "I hate ui love u is issued in name, but it is dealt with by negative means. We have the issue contract, and we will also send relevant evidence to Goodman and Hamm. Lin tried his best to collect, this kind of handle is easy to grasp, but it will take some time, and a lawsuit will be filed later.

"The other is to issue i hate u i love u regularly according to the contract requirements. Then you and Fergie will cooperate. This is beneficial to you. I guess Motura will not choose this route."

Song Ya nodded after listening, "Let's do it, it's up to Motula's actions tomorrow."

The next day, everyone waited in the war room until 24 o'clock, and received no response from Sony Columbia Records.

"This Motula, he really would rather pay five million dollars to destroy me!" Song Ya punched the wall with anger, "No choice, let's go to war!"

In the morning, Goodman and others formally filed a lawsuit in a local court in New York. After being accepted, the Chicago Tribune published exclusive news simultaneously.

'Chicago Tribune, Zoe Barnes column, this morning, the attorney representing APLUS formally filed a lawsuit against Sony Columbia Records, claiming that Sony Columbia Records did not release the single i hate u i love u as required by the contract.According to insiders, APLUS has high hopes for this love song that was signed with A+ Records and his girlfriend Fergie. APLUS and Sony Columbia Records President Motura had a violent conflict over the release of this song. According to speculation, this was the fuse that caused APLUS to be frustrated not long ago, through a lawyer’s statement that it intends to withdraw from the pop music circle... This column will continue to follow the latest progress of this lawsuit.'

The incident did not quickly ferment in the media as expected. Hayden received a lot of interview invitations, but lacked powerful media. Song Ya did not dare to conspired with Motula, such as MTV, to get involved. Hastily accepted their interview.

However, the resolute attitude of both parties strengthened the confidence of other potential buyers, and the offers came in. BABYFACE called again. He raised the offer to five years plus one album, co-produced by A+ Records and LAFACE Records, and released by Alistar Records. .

The same is true for leading Warner Records. They reduced the 49% share of the original A+ Records to 30%.

"FXXK! First-come, first-served, I have said so many times on first-come, first-served, this is not a bargaining business at all!"

Song Ya couldn't get angry with them, so she could only swear to a negotiating representative of a small, savage record company, "Don't fucking bother me anymore, you are out!"

Different from the visit, Sony Columbia Records sent a strong team of lawyers to respond to the lawsuit. In the first round of confrontation, they successfully delayed the oral and written investigation period until November 23. Goodman and Hamlin looked a little ugly when he returned.

"MJ's album Dangerous will be officially released globally on November 24th! At the same time, his; or White's single MV will also be broadcast globally on that day and will participate in the billboard charting! Then it's the Thanksgiving holiday! We There will be no heat at all by then!"

Song Ya was finally anxious, "Doesn’t your mathematical model say that my asking price is a win-win for the next family? Why are they still not acting?" He asked Samuel loudly, "Motura obviously wanted to drag me to death. According to this kind of progress, it is estimated that it will be ninety-three years before the five million is actually lost!"

"Calm down, boy! This matter has nothing to do with the five million!"

Samuel also raised the volume, "Matching bids is only a matter of one second. Now all the senior leaders in the recording industry are absolutely paying attention to your every move. They are enduring, and you must be able to bear it. The image of a capricious and impulsive African-American singer, in the darkness before dawn, you have to show maturity beyond your age!"

"APLUS, Sandy Glenn, J's agent." Taraji pressed on the phone and walked in.

"Hello, Mr. Glenn." Song Ya took a few deep breaths and took the phone.

"I'm continuing to pay attention to your APLUS, the court time has not been determined, right?

"Yes, the investigation deadline is November 23. It is estimated that it will be December until the first hearing. According to my lawyers, Motula will still resort to tricks and appeal to cancel the trial in absentia. Jurisdiction or something, just dragging it off will take months."

"Motura has no energy to deal with you now, so he has to delay. All his attention is now on MJ's new monograph. So are MJ and I. After this period of time is over, maybe we will let Epic Records match your offer. , MJ will go and talk to Motula in person." Sandy Glen said.

"This news is great. When do you think you can finish it?" Song Ya was overjoyed, so that at least somebody had the bottom line, "But I want to explain, if there are other record companies that match the offer before Epic Records... "

"I understand, I'm just telling you first, this is what MJ himself meant." Sandy Glen hung up the phone.
