After MJ became the owner of the ATV/Sony rights library, another African-American star, APLUS, suffered a waterloo in the record industry, and he was swept away from Def Jam by PolyGram today. ’

Just entering October, a news story first pointed the camera at the logo of the veteran hip-hop label Def Jam, and then slowly moved down to Hamlin, who was answering reporters' questions, and in the distant background, Song Ya was surrounded by a large group of bodyguards and lawyers in suits and leather shoes, shaking hands with Def Jam President Lyle Cohen outside the company building to say goodbye.

'APLUS's spokesperson Hamlin confirmed that APLUS had liquidated all of its Def Jam shares, claiming that the returns would be great if viewed from an investment perspective, but he also admitted that the union was a short and failed marriage, and that it would be good for both parties to end the pain sooner......

On the top floor of the Sony Columbia Records Building, Song Ya and Daniel watched the news intently, "That's it, that's good, this news angle can save us a lot ......of trouble, this deal can't attract too much attention from the outside world, just like that," Daniel said with his hands on his cheeks and his feet slightly rubbing.

"Have a glass of wine to celebrate?"

Song Ya felt that his mental state was not quite right, and he went to the wine cabinet and poured two glasses of champagne, "This business is your credit from beginning to end, Daniel." ”

Indeed, the shares of Def Jam were persuaded by Daniel to buy them, and the method of clearing the final profits was also taught by Daniel, and the management of Polygram was willing to pay 50 million to buy him and Daniel to leave in order to end his mischief within Def Jam, how much did it cost to take this share at that time? Seven million .75 million, not by the apocalypse, not by selling records, purely by Daniel's power and brains and his own cooperation.

According to PolyGram's announcement, in order to wholly own Def Jam records, they paid $80 million to acquire nearly 30% of the shares held by the remaining minority shareholders, including APLUS, and how much is Def Jam records worth? According to industry estimates of 500 million dollars, they made a good deal. ’

Daniel casually took the glass, still staring at the TV, "APLUS, why don't you invest a sum of money in my personal record label?" He asked.

This guy even has to make up for the five million capital, he bought back five percent of the five million dollars he held from himself, earning 14.2 million, and the remaining 12.6 percent in his hand earning 35 million 800,000, Song Ya took a sip of wine, "It's no problem at all, I'll let Hamlin go talk to your people, he happens to be in New York." ”

"Hmm." Daniel continued to concentrate on the news.

'APLUS and Mariah Carey's marriage also seems to have gone wrong, since APLUS shook off Mariah Carey's hand in public and got into the car alone, they haven't appeared in the same frame at all, although both said in interviews that their relationship is stable, but they have recently been in the new album announcement period, and they are too busy at work......

The footage cuts back to the studio from the 'shake hands' footage that has recently been repeatedly shown by the entertainment station, 'They're lying, aren't they?' APLUS WAS CLEARLY ANGRY WITH MARIAH CAREY, MAYBE SOMETHING WAS GOING ON IN THE BANQUET HALL. The host and guests began to gossip.

'There's a saying that APLUS ...... because she caught Mariah Carey and other male friends behaving intimately,' said one of the male guests.

？

‘Come on！ APLUS's love history is much richer than Mariah Carey's. The female guest interjected and interrupted, "That kid will steal food when he's a teenager, girlfriend's best friend, remember?" Phigie was crying so sadly. ”

The women fought for him. The moderator added.

It's just the publicity strategy of APLUS's new album.,Every time he wants to release a song, he will play this trick.,If I want to say, his acting skills are really good.。 ’

Another guest sneered, 'It's just a blog page, believe me, before the end of this month, he and Mariah Carey will be reconciled and join hands in a talk show or interview......

"You ...... You must reconcile, APLUS. ”

Daniel finally turned off the TV, "I know you're angry with her, and so am I, but we have to look forward, our alliance can't be destroyed from within, or I'm not going to end well, and neither are you." She's the top selling DIVA of the year, and she's not as independent as you, she never follows the trend of her own record label, all song distribution and copyright are all through Sony Columbia, even if you don't have feelings for her, you have to coax him back first, and then control her like Motura did back then, which is good for everyone. It's a big deal that you will each play your own game in the future, and many celebrities and politicians are like this. ”

"To each his own ......"

Song Ya pursed her lips in displeasure, "Let me think about it again." ”

"Don't think about it too long! Don't think about it for too long, APLUS, I smell something different......"

Daniel frantically walked a few quick steps around the room, "I'm not like Motula, and I'm not like the senior managers of Universal Pictures and Columbia Pictures, I'm just a byproduct of your last successful coup, and although I didn't want to admit it before, you have to understand that Sony swept me away at a much lower price!" You're doomed when I'm gone! Don't blame me for not reminding you in advanceAPLUS.,The book has a bad impression of you.,You have your own record company.,Didn't even give Sony 50% of the equity according to the industry rules.,The DTS you participated in the investment belongs to the SD camp.,And Sony and Philips's DVD camp is hostile.,You also invested in VCD manufacturers.,Invested in PC game graphics card manufacturers.,If I didn't know you, I would think you're deliberately working against Sony! Didn't you see that Sony hasn't given you any ads since MD Player? If they don't like you, they're even less likely to like me, and vice versa. ”

Daniel said a lot of tongue twisters, and Song Ya also understood that his words made sense, but he refused to renew his contract in ninety-seven years anyway, what can Sony do with himself? Netscape's stock price is about to break through a hundred dollars, and the shares of his own family are worth more than 200 million yuan, and the book is not good now, the elephant party is still shouting in parliament to force the president to continue the trade war, the copyright library merger case, Sony and MJ are soft and hard, it is nothing more than picking and squeezing for about 100 million cash expenditures......

"What do you mean...... Sony is planning to fire you? Song Ya asked, "What do you think it is?" ”

"I don't know, I should be able to fool around this year."

Daniel shook his head: "After controlling Mariah Carey, you and her don't talk openly about any issues about contract renewal, you talk about contract renewal next year, she is the year after tomorrow, the renewal issue of the two of you is the last card in my hand, and Sony can't be one less person!" ”

Control? Although he is very controlling, and he is also very cruel to Fergey, he feels that he can't do it to Mariah Carey, "The control you mean is ......"

"Coax her first, then dominate, brainwash, monitor, and force! Use all your tricks for women, you can do APLUS, I have confidence in you. ”

Daniel drained the glass of wine, "Newman told her all the effects of that incident, she is feeling guilty now, you take the initiative to hook your fingers to satisfy the woman's sensual heart, she will never dare to act rashly in the future, she is very panicked now, very afraid of losing you, she is four years older than you!" It's hard to find an Nger like you! ”

"Uh, did Newman tell you?" Song Ya didn't feel like she was scumbag to that extent.

“Fxxk！”

Daniel suddenly slammed the glass to the ground, "I can see it myself!" Don't fucking rub APLUS, do you really want me to finish!? ”

"Are you okay? Daniel. "Song Ya has never seen him lose his temper like this.

“Fxxkyou！ Can't understand the hint!? You should have taken care of your women a long time ago! I was miserable by her! Do I have to make it clear? ”

Daniel's head was raised, his eyes were already red, and his emotions suddenly changed from anger to pleading, "Help me, help me get through these two years APLUS!" Maybe Sony will get out of the way, maybe the top management of their head office will be replaced, and I'm not like Doug Morris who retired from Warner Music and turned around and became the president of Universal Music! ”
