Back in Chicago, the vocal cords were swollen a little bigger, and he asked Linda to find the best local throat doctor and vocal teacher, and began to take it seriously.

"You've got to change the way you speak APLUS."

After the joint consultation, the vocal teacher suggested: "For singers, you can't go far, you used to sing purely by your voice talent, and the tail note of such a high sentence is too thin and too high, and every time you sing it, it is a harm to the vocal cords, and sure enough, now the evil consequences have exploded." ”

"So what to do?" Linda asked on his behalf.

"Calm down and practice honestly." The other party prescribes medicine.

"I'm nineteen." Song Ya said.

"Perseverance, the vocal cords are too fragile." "You can't put your hopes in luck," the doctor said. ”

"Okay." Song Ya replied helplessly, he is a little embarrassed now, in order to catch up with the progress of the entire school season for filmmaking, he can apply for four core courses this season, and he doesn't have much free time......

It seems that the matter of the soundtrack has been brought forward, at least let Dion Wilson and them evaluate which songs must be treated with caution in their voices, but fortunately, the new apocalypse songs do not have such perverted tailnotes as Want to Want Me.

Signaled to Linda and asked her to show the vocal teacher the dozen or so lyrics and music scores with dense notes.

"You wrote all this?" The vocal teacher asked in surprise.

"Yes." Linda replied on his behalf.

"Wow, you're such a genius......" the other party looked at it carefully for a long time, "I'm lucky, it's not as difficult as Want to Want Me, only the way Say Goodbye is expressed may need to be improved, you have to avoid this thin voice in the future." ”

"So we hired you." Linda said.

"Well, I'll make a detailed recovery plan and go to Highland Park regularly to give APLUS lessons." The vocal teacher nodded.

In addition to school and vocal lessons, Song Ya also has to practice dance, polish her acting skills, and her daily time is full, but it just so happens that Mariah Carey is running around the world for the new album, and the lonely days without women are gone.

Two days later, when MJ's case was still at a fever pitch, Daniel and Def Jam president Lyle Cohen visited Highland Park.

"APLUS, IS YOUR VOICE BETTER?" Daniel asked with concern as he knew about the problem with his vocal cords.

Song Ya shrugged and made a gesture that was okay.

"Now is our best chance." Daniel cut straight to the point, MJ's manager is Motula, and he doesn't care much about where the case goes.

"Yes, Russell Simmons has to go." Lyle Cohen added that he teamed up with Russell Simmons to get rid of Def Jam's founder Rick Rubin, and now he is going to join forces with Daniel and himself to get rid of his close friend Russell Simmons, and he is a cunning guy who will do anything for profit.

"Cool."

Song Ya has now gradually and completely entered the inner world of the male protagonist.,In fact, there are no men.,The male owner's background is similar to that after he crossed over.,If it weren't for the apocalypse.,It's estimated that his life and the male protagonist's life won't be much different.。

The two on the other side glanced at each other, and they both smiled helplessly, they both needed to borrow Song Ya's money, and at this time, the endurance of the elves could definitely get full marks.

"Tell me about the specific plan, shall we?"

Hamlin closes the door to his study, and this time Song Ya only allows Linda to participate in the secret conversation with him, and basically, the division of his division with Goodman is that he favors the New York business, while Goodman focuses on Chicago.

"I've given Russell Simmons an ultimatum inside Sony Columbia Records that if he doesn't leave Def Jam, we're going to get all the Def Jam singers in the neck on the release." Daniel said.

"I did it inside Def Jam, and the result of the meeting was that he had to go, for the sake of the record company, and he's now focused on those side hustles anyway." Learcohen added.

Hamlin sat down on the couch and put his hand on the backrest casually, "He's not going to be restrained, is he?" ”

"What else can he do, Def Jam hasn't sold platinum records in a long time." Lylcone said indignantly.

"You're the president." Hamlin questioned.

"He has 20 percent of the shares and is the majority shareholder, although Sony Columbia Records accounts for 50 percent of the shares, but during the Motura period, he basically didn't ask about the specific operation of his label." Lylecohen replied that in fact, this is the rule of the record industry, and the majority of the shares held by the upstream distribution company are for the purpose of binding the label distribution contract, and generally the contract at the time of acquisition will sign a clause not to intervene in the specific operation, otherwise others will not let it be acquired.

Hamlin immediately debunked this.

"Not now, now we have huge losses year after year, and it will be too late if we don't change." Learcohen complained.

"Russell Simmons brought in PolyGram to compete with us, and he wanted PolyGram to buy 50 percent of Sony's Columbia Records." Daniel said, "PolyGram is backed by Philips, which has a lot of money, and they have always wanted to break into the American hip-hop music market, and the background of Def Jam records is very suitable for them." ”

"So we ......," Song Ya asked herself.

"We don't resist selling to Polygram, in fact, it's just right, we won't sell it if we don't solve Russell Simmons." "Minority shareholders are on my side. ”

"I'm putting a lot of pressure on Def Jam to buy the shares of minority shareholders who want to exit immediately, a total of eight to nine percent."

Daniel gave a document to Hamlin, "We've got you all ready. ”

"You come in and join us to force Russell Simmons to give up his position as a major shareholder, and 10 percent of him will be eaten by you." "I'm going to personally buy a little bit and get more than 10 percent of my shares." ”

"If he wants to sell it all, then you can eat twenty percent of him, but I don't think so." Daniel said.

"Money? Time? Song Ya asked.

"Twenty-four hours." Al Cohen looked at his watch, "At twenty-eight percent, you'd better prepare 10 million funds." ”

Def Jam was a company of about the same size as SBK a few years ago, when Daniel's SBK sold for $300 million, and Def Jam's valuation was similar, so Russell Simmons, who accounted for 20% of the shares, was worth at least 60 million at that time, not counting his side businesses. But now, Song Ya is ready to take 28% for 10 million, which is a good business, even if Def Jam can't do it now.

"I'll reply as soon as possible." Song Ya stood up and held out his hand to them.

"We'll talk about it alone."

Daniel didn't plan to leave, and sent the others out, "APLUS, I'll be straightforward, if you get twenty-eight percent, you're going to transfer eight percent to me at the right time and at the right price, and if you get eighteen percent, then five percent." This deal will not lose money, don't hesitate any longer, when I resell Def Jam to PolyGram, your shares will immediately increase in value, PolyCrystal will pay at least $50 million for 50% of Sony Columbia's shares, I just didn't tell Lylcone about them. ”

Song Ya understood that the senior manager's upheaval of the corner of the owner was nothing more than these tricks, and the part of the shares demanded by the other party was held by himself.

"No problem." He still replied with the attitude of the male protagonist Taylor who didn't care about anything.

"Shall we say so?"

"That's it."

Daniel was satisfied, and he pointed to the 'barbarian at the door' on the shelf in the study and said, "Nice book, you're reading it too?" ”

Song Ya nodded.

"In this matter, we are savages, breaking into Russell Simmons' house and killing him." He laughed.

Song Ya grinned as well.

The two left, and they would rush back to New York overnight, according to Daniel, while everyone's attention was on MJ's side, and quickly get rid of Russell Simmons, so Lyle Cohen said that there were only twenty-four hours.

Song Ya, who had sent someone back, walked to the living room and saw Linda fiddling with a black box like a video cassette.

"What is this?" He saw the Chinese character 'Wanyan VCD' on the box and remembered that the product he had invested in three million was finally available, and he sent the prototype over.

The random device also comes with some Chinese movie discs, VCD format.

Let Linda start playing, the effect is not bad, the sound quality and picture quality are average, but it is already a very new thing.

Fast forward, play at double speed, Song Ya fiddled with interest, very satisfied, this is much more reliable than Palm's PDA, although it is difficult to solve the problem of film source in developed countries, but it should be very marketable in areas where piracy is rampant.

"Wait, VCD? I think I've seen this word somewhere. Hamlin leaned in, "I'll look for it." ”

He took out a financial magazine from his bag and flipped to the inside page, 'Sony, Philips, JVC, Panasonic and other companies have teamed up to launch a VCD format standard. ’

“WTF!?” Song Ya couldn't help but exclaim when she saw this line of words, and a tingling pain immediately came from her vocal cords, "Pain!" It hurts! ”
