Chicago 1990

Shirley Fleming is a failing businessman. When she really talks about specific topics, Song Ya's bottom line seems to have been quickly figured out. Now she does not resist change, and she has experienced so many failures. As long as she can'save' the magazine back from Litman's hands, her concession will be very large.

For example, instead of pursuing controlling rights, replacing magazine covers with popular stars, putting most of the pages and color pages on content that young people like, adding gossip news appropriately, recalling only a few original magazine editors, and greatly reducing costs. Put obituaries and other content in inconspicuous corners.

In order to save the face of Old Money, the editor-in-chief must still be her, but she can transfer part of the power to Song Ya's people.

"The front page of the inside page must report major events in the opera, musical or classical music industry."

The conversation was basically completed by Barenboi's car. Before saying goodbye, the old lady said: "There are still some old friends' columns to be retained..."

"I see, Ms. Fleming, I will take care of it. My accountant suggested that we temporarily set up an investment company dedicated to acquisitions, and clarify all future rights and responsibilities through legal documents." Song Ya does not want to be in the future. Tormented with an old white lady who has many friends in the music circle, "Once this investment company is established, the media will publish relevant reports as soon as possible, okay?"

Shirley Fleming looked at Barenboi next to him, and Barenboi considered it and nodded slightly.

"Well, let your people contact my personal advisor as soon as possible." Shirley Fleming agreed.

Hayden handed the recovered video tape to Barenboi, and the other party shook Song Ya with a smile, and got into the car with Shirley Fleming.

"Let the people of Yongdao follow Goodman to talk together. For tomorrow, what the old woman said just now does not necessarily count. The old money’s personal consultants will not be fools. Let the financial newspaper that we worked with last time have a news page in advance. , We want to spread the news as much as possible before Quincy Jones."

Song Ya called back the old Mike who was not far away, and the three returned to the car together.

"APLUS, I have given up praising you in words. You are a natural musician and businessman." Hayden smiled and shook his head and exclaimed, "What if Quincy Jones is willing to join instead?" he asked.

"Then partner, enter the bidding is a lose-lose for us, it is the best for Litman, as long as Quincy Jones is not too much..."

Song Ya said: "Conversely, if there is no good price, Litman will not necessarily sell. He has already completed the layoffs and stop losses. If there is no huge financial pressure, there is no need to rush to sell the iconic American Music Magazine. Of course, the action of layoffs and stop losses shows that he is not completely without financial pressure."

The next morning, Samuel's phone came in.

"Just ask the company accountant who is based at Sony Columbia Records and Goodman to see Shirley Fleming together, can you? Okay, I have only one question."

Hayden has already explained to Samuel about yesterday’s new developments. He asked: “The famous figures in the Chicago music circle will not be completely out of touch with each other. Hayden said that yesterday next to Shirley Fleming was the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. Barenboy, have you ever wondered why he appeared at that time and where? Don’t forget, Quincy Jones is also from Chicago."

"You mean, Shirley Fleming, like Litman, is testing a better offer between Quincy Jones and me?"

Song Ya was awakened by a word. He probably still took Shirley Fleming and Barenboi too simple. He remembered that yesterday Shirley Fleming would consult Barenboi before agreeing to some conditions. .

"Yes, it is very likely. Quincy Jones has a better relationship with her, isn't it? Quincy Jones wants to buy that magazine and has ample motivation to leave you alone, but there is no reason not to say hello to Shirley in advance. Fleming fights. Quincy Jones has been in the music circle for many years and will not be so stupid to offend Shirley Fleming and her friends.

"Shirley Fleming should not value money. Apart from having to regain the position of editor-in-chief and face that Litman played with, she must have other things that value. I see."

Song Ya smiled bitterly. "She is still unwilling to be a puppet editor. Whoever can give him the more power she will cooperate with. The conditions she promised me yesterday are all tentative. Actually, Quincy Jones and I Bidding is already underway."

"You have a sense of smell APLUS beyond your age, what do you think next?" Samuel asked in a guided manner.

"Quincy Jones is a long-famous black musician and record company owner. The acquisition partner Russell Simmons is also similar. They are not going to go shopping blindly together. Buying a family apart from a long history and a good name Magazines with nothing, must have their specific, long-term ambitions and business ideas. They may not be more tolerant of Shirley Fleming’s old brains than I. For Shirley Fleming, facing them is better It’s more vulnerable to me, and it’s better to cooperate with them than with me."

Song Ya thought about things more thoroughly, "So, I may not be behind them in the competition against Shirley Fleming."

"Please note that Litman is not Shirley Fleming who will definitely sell the magazine to, so she shouldn't be a worthy object to fight for." Samuel asked, "What do you think of Quincy Jones they?"

"Financial resources, I am definitely not as rich as those two people. Then, in public opinion, if I cooperate with Shirley Fleming, they will definitely be attacked. With their resources, the intensity will not be low. So I must immediately I intend to disclose the news of Amerika magazine to the media. I must not wait foolishly to negotiate terms with Shirley Fleming, or wait for the day of the party before getting started. If Quincy Jones, they find out about my actions, they choose to first publicize the acquisition intention , Then I will be passive."

"OK, I have no doubts." Samuel hung up.

"Hayden, does that financial newspaper have a page today? I want to disclose the news immediately."

"Today?" Hayden was a little surprised, "This will violate the previous agreement between you and Shirley Fleming, right?"

"To deal with old money, Litman's method is the most effective, not too trustworthy."

They called Yeremov and they discussed the copy. The financial newspaper had to wait until tomorrow to reply. Song Ya couldn't wait and contacted directly through Hayden's change of gossip tabloid.

'The next goal of APLUS, the upstart in the recording industry!'

Before the evening, this evening paper appeared in some newsstands on the streets of New York. "APLUS is not only a popular singer, but the 17-year-old also owns his own record label and signed a distribution agreement with Sony Columbia Records.
