Steve. Keith finally agreed.

He promised Li Lin that he would convince the board of directors of AOL to sell ICQ to Li Lin once Li Lin helped him defeat Sony and return to the position of president of AOL Time Warner.

Anyway, ICQ is not as good as it used to be, and under the management of AOL Time Warner, ICQ is trying to find profit growth points, and it is what they seek that brings themselves to the grave.

Instead of continuing to maintain ICQ, it is better to cash out ICQ, and the price given by Li Lin is still slightly profitable for them.

Even if it loses face, it won't lose too much.

After returning to the villa, Li Lin immediately turned on the computer, logged in to his Facebook page, and wrote on it.

"I watched the news today and was surprised to find that Avril had a conflict with Sony, so I bought back the newspapers of the last few days in one go, and finally understood the ins and outs of the matter."

"Although I've only met Avril a few times, which is a general acquaintance, I really want to say that Sony has not done an authentic job."

"As a musician, Avril wants to make her own music, and every album and song is created and selected by Avril herself, which is equivalent to her children."

"Sonny interfered with Avril's choice, which is tantamount to torturing Avril's child, and Avril is so angry, and it is natural for Avril to be so angry."

"I hope that Sony, as a big company, can consider the feelings of the singer, after all, the singer is a human being, don't be a cash cow, she also has her own feelings."

After it is written. Li Lin sent it out.

On the surface, it seems that Li Lin is persuading Sony and Avril, but in fact, Li Lin directly confirmed Avril's accusation against Sony. And on Avril's side.

As soon as he sent it out, an agent immediately called.

"Li Lin."

Steele screamed on the phone, "Do you know what you're doing? You're on the opposite side of Sony, so quickly delete your remarks. ”

As Li Lin's agent, Steele pays attention to Li Lin all the time, so after Li Lin's remarks were issued, he was almost frightened.

Just now, she was still contacting Sony's people. assured Sony that Li Lin had absolutely no intention of going against Sony, and hoped that Sony could let Li Lin go.

As a result, she apologized on the front foot, and Li Lin directly blamed Sony on the back foot. Isn't this a slap in the face?

"Steele." Li Lin kept his ears away from the phone, lest Steele's screams puncture his eardrums, he really didn't know how angry Steele would make such a scream, "I know what I'm doing." Didn't I just say a word for Avril? ”

"What's the big deal?"

"Big deal?" Steele was even angrier. Her voice came from the other end of the phone, "Do you know that because you didn't hold Avril Lavigne at the signing party, let Avril use your field to bombard Sony, which made Sony very angry, and there was a rumor that Sony Music was planning to ban you." ”

"In the future, you don't have to think about Sony's movies and the TV stations, magazines, newspapers, etc. that they cooperate with, how much impact this will have on you, do you know it?"

Steele was simply mad.

As Li Lin's agent. She was running around here and laughing all sorts of things, trying to appease Sony's anger. Li Lin was good, not only was he not in a hurry, but he pulled his hind legs.

"If you don't go up, you won't get up." Li Lin doesn't care, "Sony doesn't have much strength in the American media industry, otherwise it wouldn't have encountered the current situation." ”

"Almost the whole of America is criticizing Sony."

"His ban is just a drizzle for me, Steele, you don't care about it, and I'm working on a thing, if it succeeds, AOL Time Warner will give me the green light, and then you won't have to go through the trouble of contacting newspapers and magazines like you are now."

Universal Music has resources, but the resources are limited, after all, they will not arrange an artist's daily itinerary, at most they will contact magazines and newspapers to inform you, and the rest depends on the agent's own strength.

Your agent has strong self-strength and wide connections, and it is easy to get on various magazines and newspapers, if your own strength is not strong and the network is not wide, the difficulty of wanting to be on magazines and newspapers will greatly increase.

But no matter how powerful and legendary this agent is, it is not as wide and as much as AOL Times Warner.

Why? Because AOL Time Warner is the largest media giant in the United States, they own more than 70% of the American magazine market, own a large number of newspapers, the largest publishing house, in the field of television networks, they also have unimaginable rights, whether it is their own funding or equity to support other television networks, AOL Time Warner has the unimaginable right to speak.

Every time Warner Bros. has a new movie to be promoted, it can immediately form an overwhelming momentum, which other studios do not have.

Whether it's MGM, Sony, or Universal, they don't have such conditions.

If they want to form the momentum of Warner, the investment is at least more than double that of AOL Time Warner, which is one of the reasons why Warner Bros., a subsidiary of AOL Time Warner, is getting more and more alive in Hollywood.

Compared with the bitter MGM, the Luen Mei Company that was swallowed up by MGM, and the Paramount that gradually fell into exhaustion, Warner Bros. is getting more and more alive, and with the resource support of its parent company AOL Time Warner, it can easily obtain media resources that other film companies dare not imagine.

"AOL Time Warner." Steele exclaimed on the phone, "Do you mean it really? Will AOL Time Warner help you with advocacy and invest resources in you? ”

She couldn't believe it.

In the eyes of AOL Time Warner, Warner Bros. is the core industry, as for music, compared to movies, music is a fart.

Now Li Lin actually said that he can get the resources of AOL Time Warner.

It's unbelievable.

It's like someone who says they've seen God, and no one will believe it. But the person who spoke was Li Lin, but there were more possibilities.

She knows Li Lin's identity very well, she is a singer. But he is even more rich, the resources he holds in his hands are not something that ordinary artists can imagine, maybe he has some cooperation with AOL Time Warner, so it is not impossible for the other party to provide him with resources.

"You mean really? Does AOL Time Warner really intend to throw resources into you? ”

Steele suppressed his joy.

With the dominance of AOL Time Warner in the American media industry, Li Lin will not have to worry about the layout at all in the future.

"But I'll have to wait until I've done something." Li Lin replied cautiously.

"Does this have anything to do with Avril?" Steele felt like he had grasped a glimmer of truth, but quickly. She denied herself, "Impossible, what can Avril have to do with AOL Time Warner?" ”

"Alright. You don't have to worry about that. Li Lin shook his head and said: "The reason why I sue you is because you don't want to be influenced by Sony and be afraid to do things." ”

"Do what you have to do. You just need to know. For me, Sony's accusations or bans are useless at all. ”

"Okay."

Steele's heart was also put back, with the support of AOL Time Warner, Sony's ban was like a joke, in the United States, AOL Time Warner's name was much bigger than Sony's.

Although AOL Time Warner has always made it its goal to be international, it can be seen in its annual statements. Eighty percent of their profits come from the United States, and they are not an international group at all.

Li Lin almost openly supports Avril on Facebook. It was an immediate sensation.

For Avril's fans, it is naturally joyful, because this is the first artist to publicly support Avril, and Li Lin is the first artist to publicly express his support for Avril under the name that all other artists are afraid of Sony.

"I've heard Li Lin's name before, but I haven't listened to Li Lin's songs, for me, Li Lin is more like an idol artist, who will disappear with the wind anytime and anywhere, but now, I think I'm wrong, how can an artist who dares to publicly support Avril be an idol artist." - Vivi's eternal supporter.

"Support it, I like Li Lin's songs, but I like Avril even more, and now that Li Lin supports Avril, I don't want to mention how cool it is." - Evie Weiwei.

"What about the other singers? What about Avril's best friends in the circle? Why didn't you all come out to speak, but a singer who had only known the little princess for a few days stood up to speak for Avril, don't you think you are sorry for Avril? "—Little Princess.

Avril's fans have supported Li Lin, and some fans have questioned Avril's friends in the circle.

Those friends usually have a good relationship with Avril, and when Avril has a problem, they immediately fall silent, yes, Sony is a big company, but this approach is too chilling.

If Li Lin hadn't stood up and publicly supported Avril, it would have been fine.

Now Li Lin, an artist who is a general acquaintance, has come out to support Avril, but those artists who are usually close to Avril are all taken by the majesty of Sony and dare not come out to speak, these fans can't stand it.

They even rushed to the Facebook of those artists to leave messages, hoping that those artists would stand up and speak, which made these artists not to mention how embarrassing they were.

Do they want to stand up and speak? Absolutely.

Of course, they were sincere in making friends with Avril, but the question was that they dared to stand up and speak? Of course not, not everyone has the guts to challenge the majesty of Sony.

Americans are also human beings, they will also seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and they do it thoroughly, there are hot-blooded and impulsive young people, but they will definitely not exist in the entertainment industry.

Even MJ, who is known as the least sociable by his own fans, has learned to remain silent under Sony's lure.

How dare they support Avril and make enemies of Sony at this time?

And now, they have been criticized, and Li Lin was classified as the culprit at the first time, if it wasn't for Li Lin, how could they have been attacked by Avril Lavigne's fans. (To be continued......)
