Chapter 396: Extinguishing the fire, it's not that easy

The next day, the content of the MJ press conference was widely reported by the media around the world. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The news has been published or reprinted in the media in almost half of the world's countries.

Zheng Xiao attended the press conference because he attended the press conference with MJ, and at the press conference, MJ said that his Chinese concert will cooperate with Zheng Xiao, and Zheng Xiao will also be the guest performer of his concert. This also made Zheng Xiao a big focus of public opinion.

This also contributed to the continued popularity of Zheng Xiao's English album around the world.

But for Sydney, which is on the cusp of public opinion, this public opinion storm is a huge blow to them, and many people are accusing them of unscrupulous means for profit.

This made Sydney very embarrassed.

Stringer, the CEO of Sydney Records, is very passive.

Since MJ held a press conference in China, and the content of MJ's furious rebuke caused by the brain-dead reporter of Poison Weed News was interpreted by the world, many phones at Sydney Records' New York headquarters have been ringing non-stop.

Many fans of MJ called and abused the employees of Sydney Records, and many people even launched a boycott of Sydney Records on the Internet, and many people responded.

Stringer knew that if the crisis was not resolved soon, it could lead to a global wave of opposition to Sydney.

In that case, he would be more passive.

So, something had to be done as soon as possible.

First and foremost, Stringer believes that he must contact MJ and convince MJ to stand up and make some clarifications for Sydney.

However, this estimate is also difficult.

Since the beginning of 2000, in fact, Sydney has had a very stiff relationship with MJ, and MJ has even spoken many times that he wants to boycott Sydney.

It is probably not easy to get MJ to say good things about himself.

Stringer is very clear about how Sydney used to calculate MJ. Although he is not the specific operator, he also knows that in order to fight for copyright, Sydney must have promoted the MJ child molestation case behind the scenes.

Although the two sides have not been torn apart on the face.

But in essence, it has already been detached!

But even if it wasn't easy, Stringer had to make a personal effort, and he dialed MJ's phone.

The phone was quickly connected, and it was MJ's assistant who answered the phone.

"Hello! Mr. Stringer, do you have any advice? MJ's assistant asked in a businesslike tone of indifference.

"Haha! I approached MJ to say something important, and I'm sure MJ would be willing to answer my call. Stringer laughed.

"Then wait a minute, I'll ask MJ what he means." The assistant said.

"Okay." Stringer said.

Not long after, MJ came over and answered the phone in person: "Hello! Mr. Stringer, I'm MJ, what is your important business for me? ”

"MJ, we've noticed the media reports that have had a very bad impact on us, and I hope you can come forward to clarify and don't let the whole world wonder what Sydney did to you." Stringer said with a smile.

"Mr. Stringer, I don't quite understand what you mean by that, but I don't mention Sydney at all, do I? How can it have a very bad effect on you? MJ sneered.

Stringer wiped his forehead with the back of his hand and smiled: "You really didn't mention Sydney, but many people are speculating that you are referring to Sydney, and you think that Sydney is framing you behind your back." ”

MJ laughed: "Haha! Stringer, this has nothing to do with me, does it? After all, I can't stop other people's speculation. ”

Stringer smiled bitterly: "MJ, I think, there must be some misunderstanding between you and Sydney, I think, maybe we should sit down and have a good talk and solve the problem, what do you say?" ”

MJ was sitting on the couch in his room at the moment.

When it came to Stringer's call, he wasn't surprised at all.

Because of his remarks at the press conference, the media around the world have done a lot of interpretation and reporting, and people from all over the world have been shocked by it.

He was thinking, perhaps, it was time to end the copyright cooperation with Sydney, right?

He is now tired of cooperating with Sydney, although this cooperation has brought him great benefits, but as Zheng Xiao said, if this cooperation will endanger his life, then forget it.

"What problem are you trying to solve?" MJ asked coldly.

"Those misunderstandings between us." Stringer said.

"I would like to ask what these misunderstandings are." MJ asked again.

"That's it, it's you who accuse us of framing you for copyright, MJ, I can assure you that it never happened, everything is your imagination." Stringer said.

"Really? So, Sydney never framed me in any way? Do you dare to swear to God with your hands on the Bible? MJ asked coldly.

"It's ......," Stringer didn't know what to say.

"Mr. Stringer, perhaps, there are a lot of things that you don't even know, right? But as long as you have a normal mind, I believe you will be able to deduce why Sydney has become the number one suspect in framing me, all because of interests! That huge copyright interest made Sydney want me to disappear from this world immediately! Am I wrong? MJ said sharply.

"MJ, I'm not a boss, I'm just a professional manager, so I really don't know about those things that are too secretive." Stringer said weakly.

MJ sighed, and then said: "You can bring a letter to your boss and tell him that our cooperation may be terminated, and my conditions are as follows: First of all, I will take back my personal song copyright and the copyright of Elvis Presley and the Beatles, which is not negotiable!" Secondly, in addition to the value of the copyright I just mentioned, Sydney will have to pay me a billion dollars in cash. If these two conditions are met, we can say goodbye amicably. ”

The rights owned by Sydney and MJ's partner company are now worth $3 billion.

According to the agreement, MJ owns half of the equity of the cooperative company, which is $1.5 billion, and MJ calculates the music rights of himself, Elvis Presley and the Beatles as $500 million, which should be a relatively normal or even slightly higher valuation, and it is more reasonable to ask Sydney for $1 billion in cash.

However, Sydney is never willing to pay such a high price.

Why? Because they have suffered a big loss! Cooperating with MJ, I originally wanted to encroach on MJ's own music copyright and his hands, but now it's a good thing, the stealing didn't succeed, but it cost money, and they naturally find it difficult to accept the result.

They also don't want to lose the rights to the songs of MJ, Elvis, and The Beatles!

All three of these are copyrights that can bring huge benefits, and they are artistic treasures that Americans regard as national treasures! (To be continued.) )
