Chicago 1990

The three-threat stance was already ready, and it was time to strike the first heavy punch, right in New York, right in Manhattan.

The application for the protest route has been submitted to the city government. The more people who organize this "large-scale event", the better. You need to contact in advance. The time cannot change, just after Christmas and before the New Year.

Song Ya will be busy with the last tour in the south and will not attend in person. In fact, until now, he has not attacked Motula publicly, in order to leave some room for mutual retreat with Sony.

"It premiered on the night of the 21st. I changed the premiere to New York." Mariah Carey called. "I think there should be more supporters in my hometown."

"Okay, I will be there." Song Ya, who was busy, agreed casually.

"Yeah." She didn't immediately hang up.

"What do you say about the 20th Century Fox Palette?" It seems a little bit sluggish?Song Ya could imagine her pouting arrogantly on the other end of the phone, so she asked again.

"About eight hundred houses," she replied.

"I understand."

With the current momentum of Whitney Houston in the movie circle, the 1,000 theaters line up for the bottom line. After the Christmas file, the New Year file is connected. The competition is second only to the summer file. The intensity is very high. It will open more than two dozen consecutively. Ten large and small movies, the first week of the 800 series of films, is not bad for Xingmeng's own quality, but she should not be able to accept it with her heart.

"I can help contact about thirty-five theaters here. Let your people contact Yeremov. I'll call him." This is the network of theater connections that I have accumulated from dancing to my life. It is my biggest energy in the distribution field. It is composed of theaters in some Chinese-inhabited areas throughout the meter and a small number of black theaters in South Chicago, all of which are relatively shabby and backward in equipment.

"Humph, thanks."

"Yes, don't tire yourself and your children too much."

Song Ya hung up the phone, "Protest that Sony’s t-shirts can be worn, but don’t target Sony with slogans, boss speeches, and interviews. Don’t target Sony. Reject the few white organizations that target the notebooks. The target has always been Motura." He confessed to Pierre Sutton beside him.

"When the protest team appeared downstairs in the Sony Building, neither they nor the white media could be ostriches."

Pierre Sutton deleted and changed the plan as ordered by the chairman, "Do you think they will keep doing this?"

"Who knows, just do our job well anyway, let me know in advance if there is any trouble." Song Ya replied.

"Oh, yes, is this Dr. Chen, Morningstar, Linda, and the governor's wife next year's rectification plan for the Inner City Broadcasting Company?"

Pierre Sutton pushed a document over, "These radio stations and the TV station's shares cannot be moved, and the dismissal plan of some personnel needs to be considered."

Song Ya glanced at him, feeling that he was taking the opportunity to bargain with him, "Reason?"

"You know, my father and I, as well as Mr. Dingkins, have long expressed our attitude. Some operations that are not profitable or seem to be unprofitable have their own non-humane reasons, such as these people... "

He pointed to the roster, "Although it usually seems useless, they can't be played without your protest this time. You should understand the logic behind it, aplus? We don't have to turn around these activists and stir up If you drop them, the sequelae will be great."

Song Ya lay back, leaning on the boss chair and looking at Linda and Dr. Chen next to him.

Dr. Chen didn't participate too much in his own war, and it was difficult to express his opinion. Linda had to help the boss complain to Pierre: "This has already been decided, isn't it? As long as it is approved by the board of directors."

"But who knows that at the end of the year, I will suddenly fall into this kind of thing?" Pierre Sutton asked, "our inner city broadcasting company needs to burst out more power, so we can't weaken ourselves like this."

"This is very good for next year's financial situation, you are the general manager." Linda retorted.

"Aren't we in the first place to help aplus win this war with Sony?"

Pierre said, "I said long ago that this company's existence is not limited to making money, it is not even a strictly private company. Its influence has been perfectly verified in this incident. I think aplus also agrees with me."

"Okay, let me think about it."

Song Ya stopped his subordinates from continuing to quarrel, studied the document carefully under their watch, and then decisively picked up the pen and signed the document, "I can give you another year for these companies and individuals, Pierre. "

"Thank you, aplus." Pierre happily left with the file.

"In this case, there will be about two to three million losses next year that cannot be suppressed." Dr. Chen mentally calculated a little.

"I need these companies and individuals that lose money but are useful," Song Ya replied.

"It's worth it, boss." Linda actually agreed with Pierre. After Dr. Chen left, "These African-American media and individuals need money to maintain their existence. What they do is not profitable but meaningful."

"Ok."

Song Ya has a very thorough understanding of their mentality, "Anyway, let the wind out first, so Sony can't even pretend to die."

Sony did not pretend to be dead anymore. After receiving news of the protests, Song Ya did not wait for any signal to make peace, but waited for the news from William Morris.

"The reporter who wrote the Sinaloa special report by the New York Times, the report that we suppressed through some means, the person and the related information, have been transferred to cbs, if this matter is operated by Howard Stringer nodded , I think it will be difficult for us to stop cbs from publishing this report."

Donovan came to New York in person, "New York did not break its promise, but... I think they deliberately let me get this news in advance and they are also sending you some signals."

"It's a clear signal, so I should take the initiative to bow to Sony now, right?" Song Ya smiled flatly, "No, never."

"not only that."

Ms. Sloan was also there. "The New York City Commissioner of Police told me that the media had come to request the full text of the wiretapping case. The police department would not provide it due to privacy. But he warned not to expect too much of the conduct of some police station employees. , There are endless cases of similar leaks, as long as the other party can afford enough."

"Wow, do both." Song Ya applauded.

"If the recording was all revealed, your wife's reaction to Motula's words of discrimination was very problematic. Given that she is of African descent... She should protest on the spot, but she did not." Linda said worriedly. "If these are hyped up, then she is in the black community... She and boyz ii man’s one sweet day is on the b list in a row, her star dream tears in the Christmas file is released, and the old black singer Patty Rabel plays her mother. Because professional film critics are not very optimistic, it has just increased its publicity in black areas."

"Ok……"

Song Ya scratched his head, "Prepare to make an appointment with reporters. Then I will personally stand up to protest against Motortura's discriminatory behavior before the incident, and force all black singers under Sony Columbia Records to stand in line. The speech is already prepared. I."

"This can't stop the two moves they have prepared. The influence of cbs is not comparable to media such as Inner City Broadcasting Corporation." Linda warned.

"When they do, they will be overwhelming. They will ruin you and your hapless wife who follows you." Ms. Sloan also said.

"Leave aside this, what happened to the Apollo Theater?" Song Ya asked Sloan.

"We blocked the relevant proposals in the New York City Council. The victory is of course temporary." Sloan replied: "This will be a protracted struggle. Currently, the Donkey Party still has an advantage in New York, although the mayor belongs to the Elephant Party. "

"Very well done, Sloan, you go to Washington to find Wrangel, and let the black clan show the prepared proposal in the House of Representatives. He knows what the proposal is." Song Ya ordered.

"What proposal?" Sloan asked.

"As for the increase in tariffs on electronic products, this time we are directly targeting Sony. Of course, it is just a proposal. Let Rangel as soon as possible. I just want the book to come to me on the initiative. I am willing to talk now."
