Back at the hotel, taking off his stranquillity gown and breathing much more easily, Al handed him his cell phone and pager, which already had a lot of missed calls.

Song Ya called back separately according to the importance of the willgardner had been in contact with AW Investments, and he suggested that Song Ya go to New Jersey and leave all the negotiations to him, because there is a stereotype of black stars in society who spend lavishly, and if AW Investment finds that they can call the shots, they may sit on the ground and raise prices.

The interests of both parties are the same, and the lower the price, the more the other law firm will earn, and Song Ya agreed.

Lao Qiao also called, and he asked Song Ya to go back to Chicago to find him, without saying why.

And then there's Mira, "I saw you on TV, and you did pretty well when you were interviewed. She said in an old-fashioned tone.

"Colombia had suggested that I bring a female companion, but I refused." Song Ya pleases her.

"Uh-huh, yes."

Mira was satisfied, she, like Song Ya, had failed to win a Grammy this time, and because William Morris had high expectations for her, she didn't want him to surrender himself to the award ceremony without nominations. Her film will be closed in early March, and when the time comes, she will come to New York to record an album, and the two will have more opportunities to meet.

After cooking on the phone for a while, Song Ya coaxed the reluctant Mira to hang up the phone.

The rest of the calls were from acquaintances who saw the interview with him before the awards show on CBS, and they congratulated him, and he went back one by one to express his gratitude.

The last call came from Halle Berry, who was also the only one who didn't call Song Ya back.

After doing these things, he made a preliminary analysis of the fifth song that the apocalypse, or the fifth and sixth songs, this song called 'Empire State of Mind' has two versions, the first version is a male and female chorus, the female singer is responsible for the chorus part, using rhythm and blues and soul singing, and the male singer's RAP part talks about his history of drug trafficking, black rentals, etc., and then brags about his success, using a lot of stalks that Song Ya doesn't understand, also considers himself a member of the lame gang, a typical gangster rap style, and it seems that the lyrics are going to be greatly changed. Although the MV is simple but very interesting, Song Ya can see at a glance that there is no World Trade Center in New York inside, what is going on? And there are also immortal words about the World Trade Building and the Statue of Liberty in the lyrics, which is very strange, according to the feelings of the Chinese people, shouldn't the Empire State Building and the Statue of Liberty be immortal?

The second version is the piano solo and solo of the female singer who sings the chorus in the first version, the lyrics are much more normal and inspirational, and the singing skills are top-notch, but Song Ya doesn't plan to use it, if it does, the songs sung by the female singer can't be included in his album, and he is worried that he can't make up ten songs.

It was not the time to study this in detail, and the next day, he slept until noon, then went to buy a business suit, took Al with him, and called Roberto Claywell, who had said hello, to Bayon, New Jersey, across the river, to meet Hayden and DeLay.

"There used to be a lot of military industry and shipyards here, so the union was very strong." Cadillac Wood drove to downtown Bayon, Roberto Clever said.

Indeed, not far from New York, there are traces of large and heavy industry, which of course are now in decline, with many factories closing, evacuating, and land and factories being converted into residential areas.

Song Ya was in no mood to care about this, his attention was completely on the Warren Brothers Synthesizer Company, if nothing else, after a year of hard accumulation, he would basically be invested in it.

Roberto Clevell has not revealed his thoughts, it stands to reason that Song Ya's acquisition this time has no interests with him, a minority shareholder of the Warren Brothers synthesizer company, AW Investment Company has sorted out the ownership relationship of the synthesized sound copyright library and other assets of the company, they spun off the land and factory and sold it at a good price, and the Warren brothers and Roberto Clevell have actually taken the money and left the market first.

Will Gardner is arriving tomorrow, and Songya and the two white bosses of AW Investment Company meet to formally announce their intentions to acquire.

"No, I'm not involved in the negotiations, I've entrusted this matter to Will Gardner."

The other party invited him and Roberto Clever to dinner very enthusiastically, and Song Ya's tone was very tight during the banquet, and he couldn't help but be cautious with millions of business.

"Those trade unionists are not easy to do."

"yes, what's that called, what Whiter's deputy manager, it's a cockroach, and last week he organized a protest of nearly 1,000 people, which scared the local councillors."

"Yes, APLUS, you have to be careful of that person after you buy the factory."

"We're putting money into it every day now!"

The two bosses of AW Investment Company sang and harmonized, but they did not hide their current predicament, but this is not surprising, after they split the company, the income from the sale of land and factories alone offset the acquisition costs and the company's debts and make a profit.

Song Ya felt that it was wise for him to leave them dry for so long, and the other party was obviously in a hurry to make a business.

Roberto Clevard is very angry with the stupid decision of the Warren brothers, he thinks that it is cheaper to sell, but the capitalist society is like this, you lose money in business, and others can make money by buying and selling land, that is someone else's ability.

"Nearly a thousand?" Song Ya was stunned, "Isn't there only about thirty employees in Warren Synthesizer Company?" ”

"One employee, three or four family members, as well as workers and family members of suppliers, plus members of nearby trade unions and family members, and some stupid hats who came to join in the fun......"

After dinner, the two bosses took Song Ya to visit the Warren Brothers synthesizer company, an old two-story factory with outdated equipment on the first floor, and even the old cast iron machine tools from decades ago, with no workers at work and all kinds of tools thrown in a mess. Only a black security guard guarded the storeroom, and some of the unsellable synths were in boxes with the Warren Brothers synthesizer company printed on them, or some were stacked in the corner, dusty.

The equipment on the second floor was much newer, and Song Ya even saw a few computers in a small office, where two white men in plaid shirts with the same hair as chicken coops and thick glasses were typing keyboards on the monitor.

"What is this?" Song Ya saw the graphical interface on the screen, and a familiar feeling rose in her heart, so she simply walked in and asked directly.

“WINDOWS 3.0……”

A man in a plaid shirt replied: "It supports the new MIDI standard that came into effect this year, and in the future, you can edit audio files through this operating system, which is much more convenient, and it can be used on almost all MIDI devices that support the new standard." ”

He pointed to the synthesizer and pedal connected by a data cable, our company spent a lot of money to upgrade the equipment, just to adapt to the new standard, I didn't expect it......

"Still working? Andrew ...... "Roberto Claywell knows them, came in and greeted him with a smile, "And Hunter, you two don't work around, the company is bankrupt." ”

"We're just having fun." Hunter smiled embarrassedly and pushed his glasses, "People who don't work are in the big conference room, you go find them." ”

Song Ya followed the two AW bosses into the large conference room, where about thirty employees in work uniforms were gathering to chat, most of them white, only two black faces. Song Ya stood in front of them, "Introduction, Mr. APLUS is interested in buying the company, you all know him, right?" Maybe he'll be your boss in the future. "It was up to the AW boss to introduce himself to them.

"No matter who buys the company, we just need to work!" A middle-aged white man with short blond hair took the lead and shouted.

Song Ya looked at him, it should be the cockroach deputy manager of AW Company Yes, the work clothes are very clean, the voice is crisp, and he is very motivated.

"Yes, we're going to work!" Everyone else shouted.

The first meeting could only end hastily, and Song Yaxing's identity could not make the workers bow down.

Today's task is to make a showmanship, which Will Gardner calls 'real estate tactics'.

In the era of dequarantine, blacks poured into white neighborhoods, bringing about a deterioration in community security, and naturally housing prices in the area went all the way down. There is naturally no shortage of smart people in a capitalist society, and when white owners find signs of an influx of blacks in their neighborhoods, they will decisively sell their houses and move out as soon as possible, escaping the loss of falling housing prices.

But the disadvantage of the capitalist society is that there are too many smart people, and this stop-loss strategy has developed later, as long as a black family moves in, the white people will immediately start to sell the house, and the house price will fall more sharply, resulting in the cost of black people moving in lower, but the influx is faster.

Later, the cunning capitalists also saw this, they would deliberately bring some blacks to move into the white community, and then create the illusion that the blacks moved in en masse, and the white owners who thought they were smart cut their flesh and cut the loss, and the houses were taken by the real estate developers, and then the blacks moved out, and the housing prices in the community rose, and the real estate developers made a lot of money from it.

Will Gardner let Song Ya appear first, and also took advantage of this 'ancient' strategy, many white people don't say it, but in their hearts they are very reluctant to work under the hands of black bosses, as long as they can force these people to agree to the repatriation, Song Ya's acquisition plan can save a lot of money.

At present, Warren Brothers Synthesizer Company has 35 employees, and as long as more than half of the eighteen people agree to be dismissed, and then the local councilors are dealt with, even if Whither jumps up and down, there is nothing to stop it.
