Chicago 1990

Chapter 526: Lucky Pig

"The lucky pig on the outlet, the singer and the youngest African-American billionaire APLUS commented on the amazing deal he reached with Dow earlier this year..."

Soon, Zoe Barnes released an exclusive interview in the Chicago Tribune, and then appeared in the financial column of WGN TV as a special guest.

This interview and program unexpectedly caused great repercussions. Soon, CBS and NBC of the three major wireless stations, as well as the cable station CUU, all approached WGN to buy the video of this interview, and still invited her to be a guest on the scene.

After watching her final epilogue at the interview site, the screen cut back to the studio of a financial section of NBC, "Hahaha, the pig on the tuyere, APLUS is really interesting, Zoe, do you agree?" Asked with a smile.

"There is a certain general reason, but I think it is just his self-effacement. Although there is no shortage of similar examples in the real estate and technology industries recently, what I want to say is to find a vent that can make you fly, and how to be in the wind Maintaining flight stability in China requires very high quality and level."

Zoe Barnes wore a decent professional suit and talked to the camera.

This kind of show usually invites guests with disagreements to balance their views and create contradictions and points of view. Therefore, another guest, the middle-aged white man who turned to a stock recommendation expert after an investment failure, immediately refuted, "But this is his truth, isn't it? APLUS is a hip-hop singer. I feel that he has always said something. Although I don’t listen to his songs very much, he really said it honestly. It’s true that he didn’t expect the fluorescent party when he bought the Barn Company. It will be popular, not to mention that the light stick will be used as a concert support..."

"For example, a Texas farmer’s backyard suddenly poured out of oil. Did he do anything? He didn’t do anything, except for luck, there is nothing to say, someone who has never attended college or studied investment and financial management. Suddenly encountering a vent, becoming a huge wealth, flying high... This phenomenon is not uncommon in history and now, around us."

"Cough." The host reminded him with a light cough.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I have no intention of offending Texas farmers." The guest realized that there was something wrong with his words and quickly remedied it.

"Zoe, what do you think?" The host transferred the right to speak to Zoe Barnes.

"I also partly agree that the current U.S. economy does have such problems. You know, many collectibles, such as old comic books from ten years ago, baseballs signed by stars in the 1950s, blankets from Indian chiefs a hundred years ago, All of these have been speculated by the market at incredible prices. This is a clear example of an overheating economy, just like the classic European tulip crisis in history."

Zoe raised the issue of macroeconomics, "That's why Mr. Greenspan suddenly raised the federal funds rate, didn't he?"

"There are many pigs flying in the sky, that's right." The guest just now nodded in agreement.

"But the commander doesn't like this decision of the Fed..." The host followed the topic, and the rest had nothing to do with Song Ya himself.

After twenty days of location shooting, the crew came to Evanston, across the lake from Chicago, where Northwestern University, another famous American university, is located.

The helicopter rented by the crew slowly landed on the periphery of the set, Amperlin Entertainment President Catherine and DTS founder Terry Beard bent down and walked down.

"What is he doing?"

The two walked into the set and exchanged greetings with several producers and directors. Zach Schneider took them to Song Ya's special RV. From a distance, they could see Song Ya standing on the roof of the car with one arm raised.

"Look for a signal." Zach Schneider replied, putting his hands around his mouth and shouting: "APLUS, come down! Catherine is here!"

"Catherine, sorry."

Song Ya climbed down from the RV, threw the phone to Linda helplessly, and shook hands with them, "You can believe that there is no GSM network only 20 kilometers away from Chicago?"

"It's normal." Terry Beard, who is in the technology industry, is more knowledgeable.

"True M-Fxxk capitalism." Song Ya was very upset, "I want to send a text message."

"Uh……"

Catherine did not want to continue this boring topic, "I heard old Larry say you are waiting for the weather to clear, right?"

"Yes." Song Ya was also more helpless, "Either it was windy, or it was raining, and finally waited until it wasn't windy or raining, and dark clouds shrouded the Chicago skyline across the lake."

When shooting location scenes, we often have to fight with God. The crew has been stuck here for two days for the beautiful lakeside dance scene between him and Amy. The helicopters rented for the panoramic view and overhead shooting also burned two for nothing. Days of rent.

"It's normal, can you go in and talk?"

Catherine said, with Terry Beard, she must not have come to visit the class.

"bring it on."

Song Ya and Linda took the two into the interior of the RV that the crew used as a lounge and dressing room for him. The interior was very spacious, and there was more than enough for four people to sit down and chat.

"Mr. Spielberg was a little surprised by your change of mind on the DTS listing plan." Catherine was straightforward. "You should say hello to us first."

Terry Beard also nodded.

"It doesn't affect it? I'm just a suggestion. The shares of David Geffen and I are not enough to affect your decision, aren't they? I can actually do it. I will support any decision you make." Song Ya replied.

"But Terry and Mr. Spielberg don't want to contradict the views of all other shareholders."

Catherine asked: "APLUS, how did you think about it? Your recent pig theory on the frontline has caused a lot of repercussions in the financial world. Many upstarts feel that they are implicated by your words..."

"Uh, I didn't think so much." Song Ya was embarrassed.

"You mean DTS's listing?" Terry Beard asked.

"Oh no, I mean the pig on the tuyere." Song Ya replied.

"Let's talk about DTS." Catherine said.

"Then I have something to say, it's like this..."

Song Ya relayed what he had heard about Jim Clark’s "Gladiator's Arena" remarks, "DTS also survives in Silicon Valley. The investment tycoon over there, as a bystander, commented that our listing progress is as slow as a snail. It feels quite reasonable. If we drag on like this, it might become their laughing stock."

Terry Beard nodded thoughtfully.

"But wait until the next wave of movies using DTS technology is on the market, and the number of theaters increases by one more round, is it not good to ask Wall Street to intervene? It has been a few months." Catherine must have represented Spielberg's opinion, "We wait. If you can afford it, then you can get more initiative in the hands of Wall Street, right?"

Terry Beard nodded again.

"I don't have a problem, or that sentence, I can do it." Song Ya shrugged, "In fact, I have all the power to manage the investment of DTS to A+ Audio President Dilee. You go talk to him?"

"Dilly is not listening to you yet." Catherine said.

"I can do..."

Song Ya really doesn't have to fight with the other party for this kind of thing. His movie still needs to rely on Amperin Entertainment and Universal Pictures, and no one can offend Spielberg.He looked at Catherine's attitude, Spielberg should still stick to the original listing plan, although the decision on this matter is in the hands of Terry Beard, who has the most DTS shares, but Terry Beard has always been more hesitant to do things.

"Well, your final opinion is no opinion?" Catherine asked.

"Right." Song Ya nodded.

"APLUS! The clouds are gone, hurry up!" Zach Schneider exclaimed excitedly from outside the RV.

"Sorry, I have to race against the weather."

Linda hurried to open the door for him. Song Ya apologized and walked out, "Are you going to my house to attend a party at night? I have a party in Highland Park at night, and we will talk in detail when the time comes."

"What party?"

"Celebrating my accountant, Samuel, who is also the midwest managing partner of Yongdao Firm, is promoted. He is going to New York to become vice president of customer service."

"Which guests are there?"

"The whole crew, as well as some of my local political and business friends in Chicago with Samuel, Dile will also go, and yes, there are senior Dows."

"Well, we will go." Catherine and Terry Beard agreed.

Song Ya hurried to the pier. According to the plot, at this time, he and the heroine played by Amy had a very good relationship, just the layer of window paper, so this romantic dance on the lakeside dock has a big boost. , Old Larry paid special attention to it.

No one cares why the heroine just invited the hero out in Chicago, and then came to Evanston across the lake in the next second. It was too entangled in authenticity, and most movies could not be seen.

Wheni'mwithyou...

Under the official UMustBe accompaniment recorded by Donnie Breston and the beautiful city skyline across the lake in Chicago, Song Ya and Amy danced together, the helicopter hung overhead and circled, and there were people flying outside the camera. A few lake gulls, everything is to create the atmosphere of the most romantic scene in the whole play.

The two of them had already taken the time to complete the filming in the two days they were waiting for, and only the most time-consuming one was left. At the end of the dance, Song Ya completed the lifting action and put down Amy, who was bowing her body.

The boy hugged the girl’s waist, while the girl’s hands were still around the boy’s neck. The affectionate man and woman breathed and heard each other, before kissing, and held each other. The photographer moved the camera closer and framed the falling sunset to the two of them. In profile, give a close-up.

Amy slowly relaxed her hands, slipped from Song Ya's neck, pressed it on her chest for a few seconds, and then reluctantly retracted it, using a light stroke of her hair to try to resolve the ambiguity and gaffe caused by estrus just now.

"Ka, great, do it again, hurry up." Old Larry was more satisfied.

Amy took the opportunity to peck his lips lightly.

"No kiss scene!" Old Larry warned.

Both of them ignored the old man, silently returned to their respective makeup artist, stylist and assistant, and they still arranged the styling.

"Did the shooting go well today?"

In the evening, Catherine asked at the high-end reception at the Highland Park home.

"Look at their emotions." All the actors and crew members of Song Yachong's rave, raised their glasses and laughed.

"That's good, the filming has come to an end, and our budget is just right." Catherine knows the crew well.

"Yes, this scene will definitely be overrun for a few more days." Song Ya nodded and agreed, "Oh, let me introduce you." He saw Samuel and Dow's people approaching with a smile, "This This is Catherine, the president of Amperin Entertainment, and this is the vice president of Dow..."

"Your remarks were wonderful, and they brought a very good publicity effect to our products."

The vice president of Dow is very satisfied with the recent performance of the product spokesperson, "Look, our product is about to be officially launched." He asked the attendant to take out a light stick and bend it all by himself. The light stick slowly glows beautifully in various colors. Light.

"Wow, the R&D capabilities of large companies are strong." Song Ya sighed, and deliberately glanced at the general manager of Barn Company who was following them, "If it was before, I am afraid it is only green now."

The general manager of Barn Company lowered his head and smirked embarrassedly.

"We will send you our marketing plan soon."

"Okay, I will let the assistant arrange the schedule."

Song Ya cooperates very well with money.

The vice president patted his arm boldly, "I'm right? Now our stock price has stood at $25. Those 2 million shares are worth more than cash. You were still unhappy at the time."

"Haha, it's up to you." Song Ya clinked glasses with him, and they laughed and drank.

"You are here too, Mrs. Underwood..."

The vice president saw Claire who had just entered the door, put the light stick into Song Ya's hand, and said hello.

"Mr. Spielberg wants to talk to you." Catherine handed the phone to Song Ya.

"Okay, I'll find a quieter place."

Song Ya took her and Terry Beard into the study.

"Mr. Spielberg..."

Spielberg, who was busy scoring for Schindler's list, did not express his attitude, and only asked a few simple questions about DTS. Song Ya still relayed Jim Clark's remarks.

"Okay, goodbye." He returned the phone to Catherine. "Mr. Spielberg said he would consider considering..."

"APLUS! Come on!" Linda appeared at the door at this time and shouted very anxiously.

"What's the matter?" The three people in the study followed her out and saw a large circle of people outside. The vigorous vice president was lying flat on the ground...

"It's a heart attack! His medicine is usually placed in the inner bag of a suit!" His entourage rushed over and shouted, and immediately someone knelt beside him, digging out his pocket for medicine.

"How did this happen?" Song Ya asked.

"Look..." Samuel pointed to the small TV in the corner.

'A doctor of medicine in the book published a paper in the New England Journal of Medicine, demonstrating the carcinogenic hazard of a certain polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbon, which is often used as a catalyst by chemiluminescence products...'

Song Ya looked at the general manager of Baen Company, and nodded to herself with a grimace...

'Omniglow, a manufacturer of chemiluminescence products in Massachusetts, confirmed that the Cyanamid fluorescent agent products they just acquired did not use such catalysts because the reaction came from...'

As the news continued, Song Ya felt that everyone’s eyes were on his face...

"Uh, I'm going to call 911..."

Song Ya hurriedly fled the scene, rushed back to the study, picked up the phone, and thought quickly while calling an ambulance.

"We don't have any legal responsibility! Barn & Company has completed the transaction, according to the contract, now it's Dow's fucking trouble!" Goodman rushed in and said excitedly in a suppressed voice in his ear.

"Really?"

The ambulance in the wealthy district came so fast, Song Ya watched the hapless vice president be carried away, his eyes turned straight.

"Uh, APLUS, I think your opinion is reliable, maybe we DTS should speed up the listing process." Terry Beard came behind him and said in a low voice.
