Chapter 581: A private interview with Weifu
In early September, MJ and his new wife, Lisa Pressley, appeared at the VMA Awards and gave the opening speech, a move that officially announced to the world that he had gotten rid of his disgraceful lawsuit and continued to make demands in the record industry.
In addition to merging with Sony Music Rights, he plans to release a two-disc album with new songs and a selection next year.
With the acquisition of the copyright library, his business empire was revealed for the first time hidden under the fog, and the ATV copyright library purchased in the 80s has grown a lot in the past ten years as he has continued to expand, and even its value exceeds the entire collection of the giant multinational company Sony. What an astonishing fortune, his investment in music has shocked the jaws of the entire industry, you know, many songs will only be popular in the era when the song was released, and it is normal for them to be forgotten by the public after ten or eight years, but MJ can choose those classics that are worth turning out and savoring in ten years, twenty years, thirty years or even fifty years.
Since the Simpson case continues to burn, now the tabloids in the United States are too lazy to fry cold rice for the time being, and MJ seems to have carried it.
And Song Ya and Mariah Carey also began to respond, the two jointly hinted in public that they didn't like the change in the copyright ownership of their songs, and also met with Sony Beimi President Schuff Hall in New York, and expressed a resolute attitude, opposing the inclusion of the two's music rights in the deal, Schuff Hall did not say much under Daniel's persuasion, and agreed to this request in principle.
He knows that he can't repair the estrangement with MJ, and in the nearly year-long lawsuit, MJ himself probably has a judgment in his heart, Elizabeth Taylor, Lisa Pressley and Elton John are the three people who really firmly supported him in the most dangerous times, Brooke Smalls, Macaulay King withstood the pressure and did not fall into the ground, and Marlon Brando and so on gave him varying degrees of support, but Marlon Brando's motives are difficult to say, his son is now working under MJ.
The two sides certainly can't be considered friends.
MJ turned over, and everything went smoothly on Song Ya's side, except for the three founders of 3DFX, who were dazzled, and it was difficult to decide which investors to accept for a while.
"Isn't Jim Clark interested in investing?" Song Ya called and asked, "It stands to reason that 3DFX has a founder from SGI, and he should keep in touch with the former boss of SGI, right?" β
"No, maybe it's that Jim Clark doesn't want to be distracted before Mosaic Browser launches."
Jimmy replied: "It's like money isn't money in Silicon Valley right now, and the acceptance conditions for 3DFX must be very harsh. β
"I see, keep following up."
No way, although the Federal Reserve continues to gradually raise deposit rates, investors in the United States are still willing to invest their money in technology and investment products with more amazing returns, but the world's rice knives have begun to return.
"Hey, shhhhh In the front row, Lao Hei was dissatisfied with him chatting on the phone in the movie theater.
"I'm sorry." Song Ya touched his fake beard and turned off his phone.
"It's begun, it's begun."
The opening of the dance of my life appeared, and the other party turned around and rubbed his hands excitedly with his brothers, "Right away, right away, oh...... Hurry up, get out of here! They seemed to be expecting something, and Adam Sandra was scolded as soon as he appeared.
"Where's Taylor?"
"Where else?"
Adam Sandra ended the conversation with Chubby Dun, and the scene shifted to the downstairs of the nightclub, where the male protagonist played by Song Ya was dancing with Halle.
"Wow, wow!" They started howling and whistling at Halle on screen, "This woman is so hard, I want to sleep with her." The black buddies who disliked Song Ya's mobile phone before called out in a daze.
"Hey! Can you keep your voice quiet?! "This time they were disgusted by the girls in the front row.
Song Ya looked at the environment in the screening hall, this is a theater located near the black neighborhood of Washington, and it is also one of the theaters participating in the screening of the dance out of my growth line, the current attendance rate is about less than 30%, and after the summer file, the film schedule is also compressed quite ruthlessly, focusing on the evening and midnight files when young people have time to watch movies.
According to Universal's calculations, now there are still 100,000 and hundreds of thousands of box office in my life, located in the second half of the list, and his family's little naughty has also slipped down, and he is in an embarrassing period when there is no film to pick up, so he moved Jurassic Park, which set a box office record in film history, back to the theater, but the effect is average, and the modern stone family who still insists on screening is in the bottom.
Forrest Gump is back at the top of the box office, which shows how much the mainstream people in the United States like this film.
"Hey, are you coming to see it too? How many brushes? β
The black boys were not angry but happy, they switched their seats to the back of the girls, and began to talk with dead faces.
"I've seen it five times."
"Six times ......"
"We also watched it three times......"
"Shh
The current audience composition is ...... Song Ya took a look, about one-third of the die-hard fans, these people tend to be in groups, one-third of couples, and one-third may be idle people who aim to pass the time casually, and most of the moviegoers are black.
When Amy appeared, the boys screamed again, "I can do this white girl too." β
"She is a Bichi in reality, relying on her physical superiority, she is not worthy of APLUS." A girl in a couple whispered, "She also betrayed her good friend." β
"What's the matter, APLUS dumped her after playing." The boy retorted, "She got the role too, and it was just a deal." β
"Are you serious?" The girl was upset and pushed her boyfriend's arm around her shoulder, "You think this is normal?" β
"Hollywood......" the boy said.
"She's not worthy of APLUS anyway."
"yes, APLUS isn't engaged to him either."
"You have to fight me, do you?"
"How can I have, aren't we talking about the same thing......"
The movie played the plot of Song Ya, Adam Sandra, and Little Fat Dun stealing a car, Xiao Fat Dun nervously reached into the car window with an iron bar, poked open the old-fashioned mechanical door lock, and then got in, pulled out the wire, and then naturally it was the most classic lighter and stealing a car in the United States film and television drama.
"APLUS must have done it before, look at his skillful appearance next to him......"
The black lads continue to give their opinions.
"Don't say that about him!" The girls excitedly maintained, "My APLUS won't do such a thing, it's all the white guy brother who brought him badly......"
"Yes, he just loves to dance, sing......"
The plot came to the most romantic dance on the pier, and the couples hugged each other and nibbled together.
The atmosphere in the theater was good, although the blacks were slightly fried, but the audience's reactions basically followed the plot, and as soon as the final ending song Be What You want Be Be came out, the girls in the front row sang along.
"Let's go."
The results of the private interview with Weifu matched the data collected by Universal, Song Ya let go of her worries, and left the theater with Linda without waiting for the easter eggs, "Did you give an explanation to Universal in the second round of long-term screenings?" β
"At present, there are more than 300 theaters near the black community, 35 theaters near the Chinese community, and about 200 other theater chains." Linda said: "I said, your movie-watching base is still black. β
"Well, so Universal wants to replace the male and female protagonists of the sequel with white ones." Song Ya knew that his decision to play the male lead in person was still a bit of a drag on the box office, and he didn't know the era when the original film was released, but now the white people in the United States still can't accept this kind of idol-style black male lead.
"Okay, if it had been twenty, not fifteen years ago, this kind of movie would have been shot by white supremacists." Linda said.
"Huh."
Song Ya smiled and continued the rest of his trip, where he met the two Elephant senators again at a yacht charity dinner in Washington.
Ms. Sloan said that it was almost done, and A+ Apparel paid Ogilvy about 150 public relations fees, as for how much can really flow into the network of the two senators under the layers of public relations firms, lobbyist companies, and Sloan himself, it is difficult to say.
Again, John Warner was in charge of speaking, and McCain was in charge of quietly observing.
I won't really talk about quotas.,"Book,Book is more annoying.γ In front of the cold food table, John Warner saw Song Ya, who had just finished the performance, and said loudly: "They haven't really given in yet, you know, they have been tough on the auto trade negotiations with us recently, and the little white face of the donkey party has nothing to do." β
After the square agreement, the United States has made a lot of moves against the book,The book is basically submissive,The competitiveness of many industries has plummeted,But in their core industry:Automobile,The local enterprises of the United States still did not gain an advantage after getting a lot of preferential policies,The general leader last year "seriously requested" several major automobile companies in the book to "voluntarily" promise to buy a certain number of memetric-made auto parts every year,Open the local market,Otherwise, 100% punitive tariffs will be imposed on the book,Officially kicked off the third round of automobile trade negotiationsγ
I didn't expect the book to be done this time.,They were really forced to be anxious.,The reaction was unexpectedly strong.,And a lot of countermeasures have been launched.γ
"Dare to resist!?" John Warner exclaimed, "If our previous Grand Commander was in power, they would never dare to be as rampant as they are now." β
"We should just punish them." Song Ya agreed.
"Yes, you can't be polite to them." John Warner said a few more words, "APLUS, I heard that Congress is preparing to completely ban the import of light weapons from China recently, do you need our help?" β
βWhatοΌ That ...... "That relationship is good, Song Ya didn't care about this at all, but it's always a good thing to be able to help Hua Guo export more things, and he was about to agree casually, when he suddenly met the somewhat different kind of concerned gaze of McKenn on John Warner's side.
"That's there...... Are there any opportunities to make a fortune? Alarm immediately rose in his heart, and he immediately turned his words back.
