Chapter 1003

Listening to the chilout music that originated in Ibiza, Spain, Sonya opened the curtains and looked at the party crowd by the hotel swimming pool, silent.

Don't you want to relax

Ms. Sloan came in and asked, "the atmosphere is good downstairs."

"No

Song Ya looked back and saw her rare change into a tropical shirt with a cocktail in her hand. She must have just played around the party. So she casually lifted her bow with the bottom of her shirt and joked, "such a thin and beautiful waistline You shouldn't always be hidden in your professional suit before. It's outrageous. "

"I'm not young, aplus. The atmosphere here... "

Ms. Sloan was very helpful. She twisted her waist and sipped the wine comfortably. "It's so free and indulgent that even I can't avoid being infected."

"Ha, since you are so interested, shall we go to the celestial beach over there? Not far. " Song Ya laughs.

"I don't care. Let's go." Ms. Sloan put down her glass, not at all.

"Forget it."

Song Ya had to say, "I'm kidding."

"It turns out that the owners of this hotel are David Geffen, George Michael and friends of the late queen singer Freddy. They were all present when the hotel opened in 1984. I saw a group photo at that time in the photo wall of the bar." Sloan said.

"Although the carnival atmosphere here is invincible, it is also a high-risk area for HIV. In the group photo you see in the bar, many stars, such as Freddy, have died of HIV and drug abuse in recent years. They dare to play and try anything here."

Song Ya reminds her.

"Of course I know."

Ms. Sloan came over with a smile and looked out of the window side by side with him, "but now it's a bit disappointing to say that Come on, let's get down to business. William Morris just finished with Wesley Naples and sherifen's photographer ex boyfriend

"Well, Hayden called me after I found Wesley at the IRS."

Song Ya nodded, "it's only solved some small problems, but it's not bad, at least things are getting better."

"By the way, who do you think is responsible for being caught and photographed by the Spanish media? Owitz? "

Sloan asked, "is he motivated? With David Geffen, Phillip anshuz and maybe you At the same time, we have a close gathering here to show our strength to the outside world. "

"David Geffen, too. Don't forget that reporter who exposed his art collection just died in a car accident He's a little bit of a mess at the moment

It was supposed to be a very secret meeting, but it was made full of loopholes by some insider. Song Ya was a little angry, but he didn't want to waste brain cells to guess who was the culprit. "In fact, they can suspect me. I'm not motivated to do this, right? Sloan. "

"Well, maybe it's all people's own troubles."

Sloan said with a smile, "how was your talk with owitz? Now that your secret meeting with him has been exposed by the media, how are you going to tell the Disney emperor? "

"Owitz is no longer the agent who can stand on the table and dance to please customers. He can't put his body down, although his words are still very persuasive..."

Song Ya and owitz talked a lot. Their external environment deteriorated rapidly compared with the last time they met. They had a warm foundation. After all, there are only three possible families of a + records, including Warner, universal and Disney. However, owitz was the first to invite Disney to participate in the establishment of a record company that could be comparable with the six major ones. The temptation is not small for the ambitious himself.

But

Owitz is not willing to give advice or help himself out of trouble without a clear guarantee. Song Ya knows that the former boss of the first brokerage company is the best potential helper to solve his current problems. However, if neither side sees a rabbit nor a hawk, there will be no mutual trust.

What about David Geffen

"David Geffen's first choice is to merge a + and DreamWorks records, and the second choice is to sign a distribution contract between geffing records of universal records and a +. But... "

Song Ya dun for a moment, "he offered 60 million yuan on behalf of universal to get 50% of a + records. This is a little better than Quincy Jones' conditions for going to Warner. David Geffen also wants to get some personal interests in this acquisition. Then give me a personal signature fee of about 30 million. "

"I can't accept a valuation of 120 million or 150 million. I'm a superstar with two diamond albums. Fergie and two other movies that dance my life and cat and mouse are all multi platinum. Brenda's platinum sales volume, jazz's and fox Brown's first albums are all above the white line according to the current trend. If al's debut is not counted, common also has gold records And the reviews are excellent, all of which share half the copyright with Sony ATV music copyright. "

"In addition, a + record also has the complete record copyright of old Joe's music, including a part of xiaoluorui's first album. If it is replaced by a relatively old record company, the estimated value will easily reach 200 million, even if the record industry is in recession.""A + also has a whole floor with three studios, which I'll peel off at that time."

How can the record Empire built by myself give up easily? It's all Tianqi plug-in. I enjoy the meal of Tianqi plug-in! Not to mention the good songs of Apocalypse over the past few years, now a + records has a combination of Beyonce, jazzy, Fergie and William Adams, who will become popular in the future. It's not harvest season yet. How much they sell is cheap in Song Ya's mind, because buyers can't pay a premium for "not coming".

"It's something that many white singers dare not even think about, aplus, that own record companies and only give distribution rights to big companies."

Ms. Sloan advised, "the reason why this phenomenon is so common in rap circles is that you know better than I do. In the eyes of early record industry executives, rap music was originally a mosquito leg that could not sell many records. Moreover, rap singers born at the bottom of the line had the balance weapon of street violence. Executives didn't want to spend too much effort or take personal risks to suppress control. Therefore, mchammer can achieve historic achievements through various causes, but.... "

He went on to say, "from him to you, to death row records, rap music has gradually risen in recent years. Even if you are not a pure rapper, is 2pac always? According to the trend after his death, his album will surely have sold diamond line before he died. No executive will take hip-hop brand lightly any more. Right now, you're the best record company, right

"I know, I know, I just feel like..."

Song Ya murmured, "I can be the exception. I have made a lot of efforts for it. Those political and business relations..."

"You need the help of big companies, aplus, and the storm of public opinion. If it goes on like this, you will probably die soon like Paula abadu. I asked Linda to do a questionnaire survey a few days ago, and the result is that compared with the first half of the year, your bad feeling in the eyes of the American public is rising rapidly."

"Judging from Mr. Phillip anshuz's attitude, anshuz can even accept that you are not popular in beimi, which is just a promise that we can reduce the burden of next year's tour and cut the number of beimi shows. After this ticket is sold, they can talk about it according to the situation."

"I don't really care. I can retire behind the scenes."

Song ya really doesn't matter. The record industry's task of making a bucket of gold for the walkers has been perfectly achieved. Now it's not even the largest proportion of his own assets, "but I don't want to share half of the future with others."

"Half of the future?" No matter how smart Ms. Sloan is, she can't understand the certainty of the owner of Apocalypse plug-in.

"Literally."

Song Ya waved his hand and didn't want to explain it any more. He couldn't explain it to others.

There was a knock at the door, "Mr. lesgarland." Old Mike said outside.

"Come in! Hello, les. "

For the paramount faction that is currently suppressing itself, the most important thing for Lei Shidong, the boss of Viacom, is his investment courage, artistic vision, media influence and the witness of his career take-off: MTV.

What paramount, Simon Schuster publishing house and blockbuster were later involved in leveraged buyouts, while the cinema and other industries were his father's legacy and brilliant report card. Only MTV station accompanied and supported his evolution from the second generation ancestor of the cinema line to the media tycoon. There was no business comparable to it. This is an open secret.

Moreover, large enterprises such as paramount, Simmons Schuster and blockbuster have been acquired by Viacom group for a few years. Even as the boss, his control power is not enough. At present, he is still playing power games in the integration and balance of the mountains. MTV station is the only one who really commands and personally inquires. He has met with lesgarland, the senior manager of MTV Probably more than sherry Lansing, President of paramount.

"How did the photos we met get exposed by the media?"

Different from himself or David Geffen and orwitz, being exposed by the media on Ibiza island will only bring negative effects to senior workers like lesgarland. He is now more angry.

"It has nothing to do with me."

No matter whether he believes it or not, song Ya wants to get rid of it, and he is not doing it himself.

"Well, let's finish what we're going to talk about. I'll fly back to America tomorrow."

Lesgarland said. He had a good relationship with mantula, but this meeting was made by William Morris, who finally got in touch with lestone, and was ordered by the boss himself. He had to come.

"Les, it's the same thing. We want to ask for peace." Ms. Sloan lowered herself.

"I'm just a producer on MTV." Lesgarland refused.

"You've got a funny show where you've shown the black material that mantura has prepared to crack down on aplus." Ms. Sloan reminds me.

"The scene of the concert crash? What's this? You're not an aplus singer who depends entirely on singing skills. You've even begun to develop into singing and dancing artists. It's not a big problem for you. You should have the spirit of entertainment. " Lesgarland said.

"But at this point in time? You became part of the plot. " Sloan pressed.Lesgarland waved impatiently, "I don't know, and I don't want to hear any conspiracy theories. Many artists always think that the reason is that the whole world is plotting against themselves. In fact, it is It's that the taste of the audience has changed. "

"Don't worry about this, les. I respect Mr. Lei Shidong very much. Er, maybe I'm not so active in participating in your MTV activities, but I think I've done what I should do in these years. I don't know why paramount TV network slanders me so strongly as it is now. It's not reasonable. It's not in line with Mr. Redstone's interests, is it? Viacom doesn't play in the recording industry, and I don't refuse to work with paramount in Hollywood in the future Song Ya said.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

Lesgarland replied, "well, since the boss has asked me to come, I'll take care of bringing the message to you. That's all."

"Just for you to come?" Sloan asked.

"Just let me do it." Lesgarland nodded.

"Well then..."

Song Ya and Sloan looked at each other a little disappointed, "it's hard for you. Please tell Mr. Lei Shidong for us..."
