Chapter 824: Failed Listing
"Be careful of Lee Phillips, you shouldn't have come to him, the appearance of him plus Sandy Glenn means that David Geffen behind them will most likely find a way to meddle in your public and private affairs, remember what happened to MJ? In order to get rid of them, David Geffen was finally paid a large 'breakup fee'. ”
Sutton's family is a neighbor, and it will take a while to drive over, taking advantage of this time alone, Song Ya gave her own advice, although she has a good relationship with David Geffen, although she has a holiday with MJ, but there must be hidden dangers for top singers to be controlled by a group of fellow party agents, MJ's last choice is to rather lose some money and sweep them away, although partly because of the anger of the 93 case that was messed up.
"At least for the time being, they are willing to help my Star Dream Tears." Mariah Carey replied.
"I would too." Song Ya said.
"Hmph, the more people who contribute, the better." She chuckled.
It seems that she is also taking advantage of the other party, Song Ya recalled the time before the two had a public relationship, she felt much more shrewd at that time than later, especially after marrying herself, and now everything seems to be back to the original state, she is not stupid in the first place...... Maybe it was because I loved myself so much at that time.
But......
"Don't be too confident in yourself, I don't think you can play them." Song Ya glanced at Sandy Glen's car through the back window, "I didn't say that because of Lee Phillips's attitude towards me just now. ”
"You mind your own business."
"Well, during pregnancy...... Have you found all the professionals? Listening to your high pitch will have an effect on the fetus. ”
"Well, I found it. Actually, I don't know if it's because of estrogen levels, but I feel like I've been singing very well lately, and my voice is very moist......"
Chatting and chatting old Mike stopped the car, she stepped out first, there were many reporters at Sutton's door, and she began to face the flash lights and pose, sweet and stylized laughter.
"Mrs. Song, Miss Kelly, let's talk about your new movie!"
"You and Boyz II man's new song will also be airborne on the B chart this week, right? Rumors that it will win the championship directly? ”
"Tell us about your collaboration with Boyz II man, who do you like the most among the four?"
Her new single One Sweet Day began to hit the charts after the momentum was overwhelming, one of the most popular DIVA plus the most popular men's group, joined forces, the quality of the song itself is also high, or a positive commemoration of old friends and lyrics with religious elements, in North Mi has a posture of killing everything.
"APLUS, HEY." When Song Ya appeared later, the reporters all laughed, "Do you feel the pressure from your wife?" ”
"Congratulations, the first concert was a success!"
"What's new at the Seventh's show here in New York?"
In everyone's eyes, the two are still the undoubted number one money-grabbing couple in the entertainment industry, both of them are full-time at the end of the year, they both have film projects, you chase me after the results, build momentum for each other, and have a perfect image, "Can you stand closer?" ...... to the
The reporters coaxed the two to hug each other, and she pursed her lips as usual, wrapped her arms around Song Ya's neck, and her lips printed on her cheeks.
After being "bombed", the two walked into the Sutton family's manor arm-in-arm, as the richest of the old men in the Manhattan gang, Pacie Sutton still saved some assets, which did not conflict with the fact that the inner city radio company was on the verge of bankruptcy before he became the owner.
"The first time I came to Manhattan from Chicago was still wearing second-hand clothes......"
Soon after entering the door, he was arched by everyone to speak again, his classic narrative of the poor boy realizing the dream of the United States is becoming more and more proficient, not completely re-reading, every time there are small additions and iterations, and will say different beautiful things according to different occasions, "I have great respect for Mr. Persissatton, and Pierre, which is why I invested in the inner city broadcaster, I firmly believe that African-American media has a bright and ambitious future......"
To the attention of the crowd and applause, he ended his speech, "All right, now I will leave this to my wife, Mary, who is in charge of all my affairs." He then plagiarized a meme that Underwood liked to use to introduce his wife, Claire.
"Thank you, thank you." Mariah Carey took the center spot with a gimmicky look, "I'm a New York girl, and I always have been, ...... when I was a kid."
Her speech is not bad, but now she feels more like a social machine that never makes mistakes, more perfect, and more emotionless. Actually, that's not bad? Song Ya smiled and listened and secretly thought in her heart, is it really impossible to have a woman who loves herself but makes all kinds of trouble, and a woman who doesn't love herself but always accompanies her in a perfect state?
"APLUS, DTS's roadshow results are terrible, maybe we should plan for the worse."
After fulfilling their mutual obligations, the two separated, and she went to pester, the famous business director, Spielberg, while Song Ya was dragged into the study by Dilley, Smith, a black executive at Goldman Sachs, and Terry Beard, the founder of DTS.
"What's worse?" Song Ya asked.
"The issue price will be lowered a bit, and the total market value of DTS will only be 200 million after listing, or 200 million yuan."
Goldman Sachs initially expected less than 300 million, in the range of 270 million to 200 million, which is not a ......
"Okay, right? I'll try to brag about it tomorrow Donu, will there be a miracle? ”
They are all professionals, and Song Ya himself rarely interferes, not to mention how many shares he has, 3.2% of the voting rights after listing, 5% of the voting rights, and one director.
Tomorrow is the day before the listing, do your best, and then resign yourself to fate, "Netscape's issue price is only twenty-four, and the final opening price is seventy-two ......"
"DTS is not an Internet stock, and those Internet stocks are crazy now." Smith complained, "Including Netscape, the seven Internet stocks listed in '95 were called the Seven Sisters by some people on Wall Street, which is disgusting." ”
Smith is a chemist by training, and he is more inclined to the industrial field, so he did not catch up with this wave of the Internet.
"Anyway, let's end this as soon as possible, I'm content to be listed." Terry Beard doesn't have a big idea, even if DTS only has a total market value of 200 million, then his personal worth can be tens of millions, although there is a big gap from the previous expectation of becoming a billionaire in one fell swoop.
"Mr. Spielberg...... "Song Ya wants to bring Spielberger over to talk."
"He seems to want to sell part of his shares as soon as the six-month lock-up period expires, which is not small, and Wall Street and investors have probably heard some relevant rumors, otherwise why do you think the issue price has been depressed again." DeLay said.
It seems that everyone else is very dissatisfied with Spielberg's approach, it turns out that the big director wants to cash out, unless it is a highly sought-after bull stock, and the rumor that shareholders are trying to cash out in large quantities will undoubtedly give the market a clear bearish signal.
"He's not going to say that to the outside world, is he? Isn't it still in the quiet period? Song Ya asked.
"Who knows, someone said so anyway, of course he won't admit it." The man in the green shirt said, "What about you? APLUS, is it right that the lock-up period for your shares in Netscape will be in March next year? Are you ready to cash out a lot of money by then? ”
"Well, that's inconvenient to reveal." Song Yaxin said what's wrong? Want to do a surprise attack on me? Hmph, no way! "Anyway, I won't cash out DTS shares, don't worry, my board of directors is still something that Ms. Alicia Flock has managed to win for me, from you. Oh yes, Alicia is now the Governor's wife. ”
"We know that she just called me and apologized for not being there in person." Terry Beard laughed.
Joining forces with Spielberg, after a day of trying to help DTS for a good day, Song Ya participated in the Nasdaq's IPO bell ringing ceremony for the second time.
However, this time everyone's interest was not high, Spielberg did not even show up, and DTS fell below the issue price during the call auction, and after a brief increase in the opening market, it turned around and pulled out a negative line that was about to die.
"170 million ......"
The group left in batches after participating in the closing event and taking group photos with smiling faces, Terry Bilder could accept it, Spielberg, who was not present, seemed to have decided to go, and it was a bit of a failure for Goldman Sachs and Green Shirt Capital, which were very enthusiastic and expected at the beginning, and DeLay was not happy, "How much is our 3.2 percent worth?" Five million! Originally, I was going to use this part of the shares to pledge the hardware investment of the America music website next year. ”
"By the way, Dile, what are you going to do to launch the American music website the year after tomorrow?" Song Ya also knows that next year is the last year before Delai gets the 15% equity incentive, and he will not go public next year, "The situation of Internet stocks should be very good next year, but it may not be the year after next." That website can't find a profit model now, don't play with it. ”
"Don't worry, no, none of the Seven Sisters can make a profit, and now it's not popular on Wall Street to look at multi-year profit records, especially for Internet stocks." Delay replied confidently.
"I'm willing to give you that equity incentive, I promised." Song Ya reiterated her position, "You don't have to take risks because of this concern when you think about business, I don't want to lose a seat on the board of directors of DTS, you know I was optimistic about the future of surround sound from the beginning, ......"
"I understand APLUS, if I mess up, you can punish me and drive me away. I know how rich you are, and A+ Audio will never get out of your control. "Dileli military order.
The divorce just lost a lot of real estate, and then I have to bear the burden of Charis's children, and next year A+CN will smash a lot of money, Song Ya shook his head, and didn't say anything more to the old brother, this year's second college, Beckie's second college is selling well, and the cash cow of A+ records is still very stable, just wait for the settlement at the beginning of next year.
She even gets a share of the songwriting revenue from Mariah Carey's record sales, as she stuffs the Malibu she gave her into her new album Daydream, and Step Up and A NO NO into the Stardream Tearstained Soundtrack.
"Honey, are we going back?" Mariah Carey approached affectionately and naturally took his arm.
"Yes, how was your conversation with Mr. Spielberg?"
In front of people, the two were still so sweet, talking and laughing and saying goodbye to various VIPs, and then got in the car and returned to Bedford Hills.
"Get back to your Tribeca." Old Mike drove into the manor, and when she got out of the car, she closed the door before her 'husband' could come out.
