Chicago 1990

Returning from Old Joe Records, "Uh..." Song Ya looked around from the people around him, and still picked his brother Tony, "Tony, you accompany Goodman tomorrow to discuss the contract with Old Joe, stare , Don’t make the scene stiff. I think it’s almost done. I don’t want to do something kindly, but in the end it turns into an enemy because of money. I can’t write a few songs in a year, you know.”

By his side, Tony can handle the relationship with old Joe. Although Al has solved the knot with old Joe, it is not as good as Tony to ease the atmosphere.

"Don't worry, Alex, wrap it on me." Tony was very happy. "Should I bring a silencer?"

"Yes, don't make trouble."

The next day, Song Ya and Fergie appeared at the entrance of the campus. Song Ya was wearing a leather jacket, underneath a pair of school uniforms and pants, carrying a schoolbag on one shoulder, Fergie was dressed in a campus style, holding a few books in her hand. book.The two acted affectionately and jokingly. In fact, they were humming 1, 2, and 1 to coordinate their pace. Yeremov believed that the same pace could best reflect the two people's sense of love.

After walking back and forth for more than ten minutes, when the street photographer was satisfied, the two got into the car and went to school?I was too busy before issuing the bill, so let’s wait for time.

"How's the prize redemption? Hayden."

Entering the study, Song Ya saw Hayden sitting silent in front of the TV, seeming to be struggling with something.

Hayden didn't answer, and pressed the remote control in his hand.

"BET News, this is Gordon, welcome back, about the Grammy Awards..."

"We have noticed that there has been a remark recently that in the Best Single of the Year Award, since only APLUS and Mariah Carey are among the five nominated singers, the majority of black judges should vote for them. Huh? Wait, let's not discuss their much fairer skin color. From the point of view of this logic alone, I also think it is completely unreasonable. Music does not distinguish races and borders. The award selection should be so... "

The full name of BET, the black entertainment television station, was founded by veteran black media man Robert Johnson. The target audience is also black. It is the first cable television station in the United States to have all-black programs and the first listed company on the New York Stock Exchange that is controlled by blacks.Because it is a cable station, his coverage is not large, but his influence in the black community is getting higher and higher, especially since it went public last year.This TV station also has a certain influence in the music industry, because it started by playing various music MVs for free to attract subscribers.

"WTF?"

This back stabbing made Song Ya bewildered, "Because of Quincy Jones and Russell Simmons, I could not get many black votes, but now I am being attacked for this?"

"It is completely disregarding the facts, but it is fatal. If this rumor spreads, oh no, it has spread. The black judges will think about it before voting, and the white judges will hate you." Hayden rubbed his eyebrows, "I give Donovan has called, and he admits that it is tricky. The main BET is a TV station that speaks for black people. They take the initiative to say this kind of remarks more credible."

"Even if I can dispel the rumors, it's too late, right? The judges will send out votes one after another in two days." Song Ya's face became cold, "Can I sue this TV station?"

"I can't tell, even if you name Dao and surname you want to win, it will take a long time, let alone he hasn't."

Hayden said: "I called Yeremov and Eli, and they came over right away, and now they need to use crisis public relations."

Taraji rushed in, "Motura."

"Hello Mr. Motula." Song Ya picked up the phone, "I don't have one. I won't use that kind of canvassing method. I'm not a fool!"

"Really not?" Motura was very upset. "You kid know the price of cheating me?"

Uh... bro, I have not only deceived you...

"I know, I won't do such stupid things!" Song Ya said, "I'm completely baffled now! Not only have I never dealt with BET, but I don't even spread the stupid remarks that black judges must vote for black people.

"Well. Roberto Johnson, the president of BET, studied at the University of Illinois. The host Gordon also started in the Detroit media. They have a good relationship with Quincy Jones."

Motula said: "I will talk to Johnson, this time Quincy Jones has played the game!" He hung up angrily.

Song Ya called Hamlin over, and when Yeremov and Eli arrived, they immediately began a meeting and discussion.

"Reversely manipulate racial issues, but I have to admit that Quincy Jones is very beautiful, very beautiful."

Eli couldn't think of a good way for a while, "Do you have to win this award? APLUS?"

"It's just one prize. I'm still young. There are still many opportunities in the future. I have to get it."

Song Ya replied, "But if you want to take it, I really want to take it."

"Anyway, let's make a statement to clarify." Hamlin suggested.

"No." Hayden disagreed: "Have you forgotten the Rodney King case? The most influential cable station CUU's reversal news has been deliberately ignored by all parties, and BET's coverage rate is even higher. Low. As long as the radio stations and paper media are not reprinting on a large scale, the resulting public opinion storm can still be under control. If we take the initiative to clarify, then this news will attract the attention of the public, and the gain is not worth the loss."

"Playing dead?" Song Ya shook his head, "This is not a good strategy for crisis public relations."

"Sometimes it is the best way to cope."

Eli snapped his fingers suddenly, "The current situation is like this. The entry point for the other party to discredit is very powerful. We really can't deal with it. Clarification? Will expand the impact, and what do we clarify? Didn't make that kind of public relations rhetoric? How many people believe that, after all, it was like something that African Americans could do. Fighting a PR battle? What's the use? Our goal is to win the Grammy Award. Even if the PR battle is a result, the votes of the judges have been sent out early. . So the target of our public relations must be BET, as long as they do not authorize other media to reprint it, and then send a false statement to minimize the negative impact. If you run away some votes, you can only admit it is bad luck."

"Is BET boss Johnson a member of the Donkey Party?" Song Ya asked.

Hayden called Donovan, "William Morris will fax his information."

Before long, the fax machine began to squeak, "Wow... a bachelor's degree from the University of Illinois and a master's degree from Princeton University. Under such an education background that favors the donkey party, Johnson is actually an elephant party. He and the cable TV godfather, TCI CEO John Malone’s relationship is very good. He is considered to be the most successful black man in the American business field.

"FXXK, there are not many blacks in the Elephant Party, but they are not easy to deal with..."

Song Ya’s social relations are all useless. In this era, like blacks in the party, they have a strong personality and conservative political tendencies. They don’t have a lot of favor with black compatriots who profit from equality issues. They are more willing to integrate into the white system and rely on personal struggle. High-ranking, so they are often scolded, such as Condoleezza and Colin who currently serve in the Elephant Party government, such as the black police officers scolded by NWA in FXXKthaPolice.

He remembered that Michelle had also read Princeton and made a phone call, but the other party and Johnson were not familiar.

It was Motula who solved the problem, "APLUS, traveling to Washington, Johnson is a little interested in you. Let's talk to him in person."
