Chicago 1990

Latest URL: Batman Forever This movie...just the usual routines of rice-style blockbusters, handsome men and beauties, actions, special effects, amusement, horror, and emotional drama are all a bit, well-regulated, full acting online, and comic superheroes The bonus.

Song Ya felt that the reason why the film critics criticized the film and the director Joe Schumacher was that they liked Tim Burton's dark gothic style. Anyway, he had no preference. Speaking of conscience, he looked good.It’s really not as good as the first Batman directed by Tim Burton, because there is Nicholson’s Joker, but it’s not necessarily worse than the second Batman’s return. At least Kim Carrey’s Riddler is very brilliant, Nicole Kee Deman is also more eye-catching than the catwoman Michelle Pfeiffer in Batman Return.

It’s a pity that Americans really don’t want to see an Australian white girl. She has become one of the key points of verbal criticism. She said that Michelle Pfeiffer’s catwoman learned taekwondo for the previous movie and she wore a sexy black tights and worked hard in the show Acting in play, and in this movie, she is just a beautiful vase.

But soon, it turned out that Song Ya’s judgment was problematic. It was only in the second week of the painting. The production cost of this over 100 million Warner masterpiece was announced and released. The main melody was so that the main melody of Apollo 13 could not be reached. Squeezed directly from the top of the box office rankings.

Like last year's Forrest Gump, the summer file, the main theme, starring Tom Hanks, and the familiar three magic weapons, the only change is that the publisher has changed from Paramount to Universal, and the budget is only half of the eternal Batman.

"Mr. Simberg, congratulations, the global Apollo 13 box office is a big hit. I heard that the global box office is likely to exceed 500 million in the end?"

Song Ya, he called Simberg, the president of Universal, and said he was happy to say that the sequel to my life had just been closed after shooting for nearly three months, and the issue of schedule was on the agenda.

But Simberg seems to be in a bad mood, "Maybe, uh, APLUS, I’m a little busy lately, you know, the future Water World will start painting in late July, and I’ll show you the sequel to my life. Talk to the executives about the matter."

"OK, then I won't disturb you Mr. Simberg."

Song Ya hung up the phone strangely, "What's wrong with this old man?"

The others present all smiled and shook their heads.

"You guys made the battle a little bigger today, not the same as I thought, Mr. Roberts Jr."

Song Ya smiled to the CEO of Comcast next to him. Today, he came to the Comcast headquarters in Philadelphia to formally sign the contract. The other party organized a grand press conference and invited many reporters to the event. There was a media dinner in the evening.

"I want to say to the outside world that we welcome you to join the Comcast family,APLUS."

The Roberts family actually doesn’t have much Comcast shares, but they still control this behemoth that spans television, telecommunications, networks, cables and other industries very firmly, because his family owns almost all of Comcast’s With high voting rights in B shares, Roberts must be regarded as the industry's top tycoon, although his personal worth is far less than that of another tycoon, John Malone.

"I'm honored, but...really I'm a little flattered."

Song Ya felt that the other party was deliberately making a big fanfare, putting herself in front of the media, and then forcing herself to invest heavily in the new TV station for the sake of face...

Hum, I don't want to face much, Song Ya sneered silently in her heart.

"It doesn't matter, the basis of our cooperation is all here." Little Roberts didn't know his psychological activities, and smiled while holding the thick contract text on the table with one palm.

"Yes."

Song Ya looked back at the back. The wall was cross-posted with the logos of Comcast and A+CN. It was very formal. Alicia wore a decent professional attire. She restrained her excitement and stood on her side. Immediately after making a look, he gave a thumbs up quietly.

This time, with the joint help of Morningstar, Yongdao, and Alicia Law Firm, we negotiated with Comcast about a moderately exclusive broadcast contract. The trial broadcast ratings data are divided according to gradually increasing duration, and each milestone node Each gear of Comcast corresponds to the different channel resources given by Comcast. The risks of both parties are controllable. The worst result is that Song Ya spends a lot of money to get a small channel with little influence. Comcast also In this way, the worst thing is to get another bad channel, anyway, every cable TV operator has no shortage of bad channels.

"Two gentlemen, let's start." Comcast's staff came to remind.

"Ok."

The two men converged their smiles and arranged their suits together, sitting straight up, opening the beautifully bound folder in front of them, and the cameras of the reporters in front began to work frantically.

"Here, here." Alicia leaned over slightly, and softly pointed Song Ya to sign all parts of the contract, "Okay, now and Mr. Roberts..."

Song Ya put down the signature pen, turned his head and exchanged a smile with little Roberts, the two stood up tacitly, and passed the contract text to each other's hands, and then held this posture side by side, facing the reporter's camera, as bright as day. Flash smile...

"What conditions did you give Gordon to make him willing to leave BET?"

After speaking some scenes and answering the reporter's question, the two reunited at the media dinner that night, and Roberts was most interested in Gordon's job-hopping.

"Now we can say about it. Actually..." Song Ya blinked, "He came to me on the initiative, otherwise I don't have the thought of being an African news station."

"Oh, I see, because Johnson let BET focus on entertainment content, is Gordon dissatisfied?" Roberts Jr. clearly understands BET.

"Almost, and he also hopes that his career plan will enter the field of TV station management. For this reason, he will leave the powerful BET and start all over again." Song Ya nodded, "And I give him better treatment than BET, President of A+CN , The producer, regular host and editor-in-chief of the evening news program, with a four-year guarantee of 10 million yuan, a salary of up to 20 million yuan according to the ratings, and some option incentives."

"Four years is a bit short, isn't it?" Little Roberts asked: "The industry's leading host with choreographing ability usually signs super long contracts, otherwise the job-hopping after four years will cause a lot of audience loss."

"He refused, and I... hesitated."

Song Ya told the truth, “In the preparatory stage of the TV station, he did almost nothing. I also devoted my energy to help him comfort Johnson. Therefore, I had to urgently introduce Morningstar’s professional services and spent a lot of money.”

"Well, it's an ultra-long marathon to run a TV station. Who else have you dug?" Little Roberts asked.

"It's not convenient to disclose for the time being, and it's not in a hurry? Our first phase of the pilot program only has evening news, and it will be the end of the year." Song Ya asked rhetorically.

"Well, don't save money on strong male news anchors. This is my advice."

Little Roberts kindly reminded: "This kind of person has the ability to write and direct and is the mouthpiece of the TV station. The audience will not control the staff behind the scenes who write the manuscript. They will only put all the glory and trust on them. Everyone is a TV station. If the money is not enough, they will inevitably use their influence on the people to cash out from other places, which will cause more damage to the reputation of the TV station."

"I give Gordon..."

Song Ya feels that he has given Gordon a lot, and his influence is limited to the black group, and he is completely unable to interact with the three major wireless news host and talk show bosses who have been awarded top-level contracts for many years. compared to.The annual salary of up to 5 million yuan, as well as management positions and option incentives must be interesting...

We must know that Will Smith, who became popular again in April this year with the upset of the Jedi Men’s box office, has won two Grammy Awards and played in ABC TV series for six years. His handsome and handsome audience is also very wide. It was only after the Jedi Men were finally able to get a five million salary offer in Hollywood.

"Gordon’s treatment is okay. I just kindly remind you. In addition to money, you have to be careful to tolerate the quirks of male hosts. In top big Western media such as NBC and BBC, some well-known hosts or TV stations Seniors will do very dirty things privately. Everyone is used to helping cover the covers. As a new player in the industry, you must also stick to the industry's tacit understanding, at least not have naive heroic ideas." Little Roberts said.

"I know, CNBC's Roger Ailes..." Song Ya also knows something. Now there is a lot of rumors in the industry. The female staff and hostess in that guy's crazy hidden platform, even the boss behind NBC, GE, is going to cover up. Can't help it.

"Ah, you need to pay attention from now on." Little Roberts raised his glass.

"Okay, I see." Song Ya clinked glasses with him to show that he was taught.

"Mr. Roberts, APLUS." Philby, a well-known music critic who had been mixing in Philadelphia, came over to say hello.

Little Roberts briefly exchanged a polite greeting with him and disappeared from the dinner party.

"The world is changing too fast, right, APLUS?"

Philby has always been acrimonious when he writes, but he leaves the pen and the keyboard a lot of people who will be counseled. "Who would have thought that the MJ brothers and sisters airborne the fourth new album on the B list and lost one in the second week!"

"Ha ha……"

Song Ya didn’t answer his question. It was Biggie who squeezed the MJ siblings down. He actually contributed the rap part in a song in the new MJ junior high school, but... the One More Chance in his first album last year suddenly rose. Let MJ go.

But the magic of this thing is that in the song One More Chance there is the voice of Biggie’s wife Feith Evans, ore chance', although the original intention of the song was definitely not to ask Biggie for the fact that she was slept by 2PAC. Begging for'give me another chance', but combined with the triumphant boasting and revelations of 2PAC before, the popularity of this song at this weird time point is too disturbing.

"Those African-American DJs are so bad, Biggie may be angry that his song hit the top of the B chart for the first time now, right?"

Philby smirked: "2PAC also releases songs one after another in the prison, the war between the hip-hop circles on the east and west coasts, and the public accusations of top politicians in the Elephant Party will not delay them from making a lot of money. But Biggie makes a lot of money It’s too uncomfortable. If I were Biggie, I would just figure out a way to kill 2PAC in jail, otherwise I would be laughed at for a lifetime."

"Hey! Hey!"

Song Ya hurriedly retreated away from this big mouth, "Don't talk nonsense, I didn't hear anything just now."
