Chicago 1990

Chapter 506 The 3rd Chicago Conference

Roberto Clerville is very dissatisfied, but he is only a minority shareholder. The two companies under Song Ya, A+ Copyright and A+ Pedal Company, own a total of 76% of A+ Apparel, and the remaining% Twenty-four belong to Mariah Carey, Hayden and Song Asheng, Roberto Clerville and David Cole, and the three groups each own 8%.

On the same day, Song Ya and Ogilvy signed a series of long-term brand promotion and public relations management agreements. Except for the 1 million dividend, the net profit of the basic A+ apparel in the first year was all spent on the plan provided by the other party, including payment Commissions for Ogilvy, access to some fashion awards and public relations expenses for shows and industry associations, sponsorships for cotton research in California and Arizona, and deposits for signing long-term acquisition agreements with local farmers, etc.

One of the advantages of making profits is that you can pay less dividends and pay less taxes, and lay a solid foundation for the real long-term business.

"In fact, Wal-Mart can also do this for us."

At the end of the meeting, when Ogilvy's people had just left, Roberto Clerville also picked up his bag and said angrily: "I hope you don't want to transfer our profits to your own hands."

"I won't. Indeed, the endorsement fee for me and Mimi next year will be substantially closer to the market price, but I will not treat you badly in other respects." Song Ya said to him: "We are friends, and I am not the same. People who like to do little tricks."

"I will stare." Roberto Clever pointed to his eyes and strode away.

The others all left one after another, only Scout stayed.

"APLUS, this is the final product."

He took out an exaggerated belt, the belt buckle was replaced with a rectangular seven-segment display, that is, the kind of Arabic numerals and letters displayed by seven light tubes, which are mostly used on indicator lights and neon light boxes. For example, the real-time data marquee outside the Nasdaq Stock Exchange is.

He pushed aside the button on the side, and a string of red letters "APLUS" flashed across the display.

"The red LED bulb and the display part are produced by Fairchild Semiconductor, and the control part uses low-end chips from Texas Instruments. If mass production, the rest of the belt can be produced and assembled in China." Scott put a very thick belt. The buckle turned over and showed him the battery compartment on the back, "It just consumes a lot of electricity and requires four AAA batteries."

"Yes, you can give it to the crew, and let Xiao Pangdun wear it when the movie is shot. Of course, don't use the letters APLUS on it."

In the original movie, the second male brother wore a similar belt when he appeared on stage. It was interesting. Adults would definitely disdain to wear it. The main target group should be the second male brother who likes to show off personality.Song Ya had long given this idea to Scott. A+ clothing has only now been made in real objects. In addition to the high cost, it is also very low in practicality. It can only be used as a toy or personalized wear. I don't know if it will become popular.

After straightening out the work of A+ costumes, he continued to devote himself to rehearsals.

On the 20th, the district attorney of the jurisdiction where Dreamland is located, Tom Sneden, smashed the nearly crazy resistance of the MJ lawyers, and took people to Dreamland to do a physical check on MJ and take a photo to leave.

On the 22nd, MJ issued a personal statement, first acknowledging that he was taking painkillers and was dependent on drugs, and clarified the fact that he was concocted by the media to become addicted after a physical problem in the UK.Then he attacked the mass media, especially the random rumors of the tabloids, and firmly stated that he was innocent.

He also said that the physical examination he received was inhuman and insulting. It was the most humiliating treatment he had ever received in his life, and it was a pain that no one should endure.

"What's the matter? Since the little boy described his private parts to the police, it is inevitable to receive the police's physical examination and verification, right?"

After reading the news, Song Ya complained, "If the little boy is wrong, isn't it his best proof of conviction? This is a good thing.

"What if the little boy is right?" Goodman asked.

"Impossible, if you are right, the local prosecutor who seems to want to arrest MJ right away hasn't held a press conference right away?" Song Ya said.

"What if the little boy said something was taught by others? For example, MJ's sister must know the characteristics of some of MJ's private parts?" Goodman asked again.

"MJ has vitiligo, and his sister certainly doesn't know the recent development of his vitiligo." Song Ya shook his head.

"Or some of the staff of Dream Manor, have they seen it when they are serving MJ? There are quite a few traitors over there recently for money..."

"I'm not referring to this matter. I don't quite understand MJ's particularly aggrieved attitude. This kind of inspection is inevitable, and the photos will not circulate. There is no need to entangle this matter. It is consistent with what the little boy said or not. If you agree, you can’t change the result. The more entangled you will only make others feel that you are more guilty.” Song Ya said.

"MJ has been very popular since he was a child. He has been popular for so many years. He has already regarded himself as the real'king'. The dignity of the king of fashion is beyond your imagination, remember? Even you, every time you want to see him On the one hand, the difficulty is no less than seeing a real king." Goodman said.

"After all, he is just a singer, although he is the most popular one."

At this point, Song Ya doesn’t sympathize with MJ very much, “This is torturing himself with the minutiae that he doesn’t need to care about. What do you think of his state in front of the camera? He is too weak and sensitive. No wonder the recent The media would suspect him of sucking."

He pulled the elastic band of the big pants. "If the prosecutor wants to take pictures of my private parts, then just take them for them. What's the big deal."

Goodman shook his head and smiled, "Stop talking about this, let's go."

They rushed back to Chicago to spend Christmas together, and then, in the gap between the Christmas holiday and the New Year's Day holiday, he hosted the third Chicago conference.

Singers have the most opportunities for business performance during holidays, and there will be more favors to bring people to Chicago, and the second meeting was held in April this year.But there is no way. He will enter the group next year, and there will be an awards season where there will be no money but people must be there to collect points. After the film is closed, he will immediately return to school to follow the progress of the suspension, let alone spare time.

"Let me introduce..."

He threw a grand party at his home in Highland Park, and then found an opportunity to call relevant people into the study.

"Dre of the West Coast, Escobe..."

He pointed to the two gangster rap bosses, "And Knight Dog..." Snoop Dogg didn't come, but let his good brother, also a high school classmate who signed on death row records together, represent him.

"East Coast, NAS..."

The arrival of the Chicago Conference has greatly improved the East Coast coffee position, and people in other regions also feel more respected.

"BABYFACE in Atlanta."

BABYFACE had a lot of opinions on the Chicago meeting at the beginning of the year, mainly because of Sugnet’s non-cooperation. Fortunately, Derry paid for him to appease him, and Donnie Breston is recording UMustB on a+ records, so he is here today. .

"Miami..."

Huang Yuan is very excited to be able to participate in this level of big party gathering.

"My brothers Al and Dion Wilson, we all know each other. Next, let's talk about the joint publicity plan for 1994."
