Chapter 538: The First Hip Hop Music Awards

In mid-April, after finishing her dubbing and supervising editing, Song Ya was ready to leave for Chicago to start school.

During this period, he also asked Peter Flock's wife, Lockhard and Gardner's lawyer Alicia and A+ Audio President DeLay to Los Angeles to officially start working with other DTS shareholders to launch the C round of financing plan, which should be the last round of financing before DTS went public, so they found some venture capital institutions such as Madoff, chairman of the Nasdaq Stock Exchange, Goldman Sachs, investment bank, and Green Fir Capital, to prepare for the listing on the NASDAQ.

Goldman Sachs' only black executive, Smith, came to meet with Song Ya, because the business had not officially started to talk, the two did not talk much, Song Ya showed him the original soundtrack of Dance My Life recorded with DTS technology, and most of the rest of the time Smith was fooling him into investing money in Goldman Sachs' fund projects.

Of course Song Ya doesn't do it, Smith is right to support the Donkey Party, but he has a very similar impression to Johnson, the BET boss who supports the Elephant Party, maybe the black people who can make a billionaire without relying on the two industries of culture and sports are similar, and there are no white people to be trusted at some point. Besides, people on Wall Street are inherently untrustworthy, and Goldman Sachs is especially important.

He was willing to take this opportunity to hook up with the Jew Madoff, I heard that Spielberg made a lot of money in it, but unfortunately the other party did not show up at all, and the fund manager under him pushed and delayed, and he was not happy to send money in the past, and only took out fund projects with low annualized returns to deal with it. He had to seriously plan to find an opportunity to camp into the Palm Beach Country Club and other organizations in the future, Spielberg and David Geffen were already in it, even if they didn't invest, it would be good to expand their network more.

"Don't you participate in the fine cut either?"

Larry Sr., who learns that he is leaving, quickly calls over, and he is excluded from the final editing process by Universal.

"If you don't participate, you can earn some points at Universal." Song Ya said.

"Points?"

"Uh, get some impression points."

Song Ya doesn't want to challenge the power of the distribution company now, and he doesn't want to make trouble with Universal because of this kind of thing, and it depends on them to dance the finalization, film arrangement, and publicity of my life, "Anyway, I watched the near-finished version, and you have done it perfectly, Universal will not cut it randomly, so it will not be good for them." ”

"There were several shots of social and racial issues in there." Larry Sr. said worriedly.

These two parts of the content are more than in the original version of Dancing My Life, because the protagonist has changed from white to black, so if you don't add something, Hollywood equality activists led by Spike Lee will definitely not say good things, theaters close to black ghettos are the basic plate for this movie to make box office, even if it fails to be accepted by white audiences, at least it is expected to get the box office of the black group like the block boys, in fact, there are a lot, the box office of the block boys is nearly 60 million.

"Few, don't worry Larry, we've gotten to this point, it's time to put our energy into thinking about the box office." Song Ya persuaded him.

There are really few, except for one or two sentences of complaint that came out of the mouth when the protagonist and the two male brothers talked, that is, when the male protagonist sent the female protagonist home, he was looked at by the neighbors with unfriendly eyes at the door of a high-end residence in the white community, and the degree of this 'blackness' is already very light, and there is even beautification.

In reality, those neighbors may have called the police, and the police station in the upscale white community is quick to call the police, and the police officers will generally come forward to interrogate strangers when they see strangers, and if they find a little bit of stubble, they will immediately take them to the bureau for interrogation. Some white communities in the country now have their own private police or volunteer police, and some local police with insufficient budgets will subcontract their jurisdictions to private companies or patrols organized by community residents, and those guys treat blacks more harshly.

Of course, there is a clear distinction between the communities in the United States, and most of the blacks don't go there for no reason to do good things.

"I can't do anything at the box office, I don't have box office appeal, and the other actors are also newcomers, it's all up to you." Larry Sr. said.

"I know, of course I'll do my best."

Song Ya calmed down the worried old man and hung up the phone.

"I feel like if the box office fails, Larry Sr. will be in the ICU." Hopping on the private jet, he smiled at Mariah Carey, who was beside him.

Mariah Carey didn't hear him, and was concentrating on the guest list for the engagement ceremony with her assistant.

In the new school season, Song Ya enrolled in three classes, and a week after re-entering the campus, Mariah Carey made an excuse to run back to New York, saying that she was going to keep an eye on the construction of Bedford Manor, but Song Ya felt that she was purely bored in Chicago and to avoid the task of exercising.

On the 25th, Song Ya took a large number of singers such as Ale, Dion Wilson, Common, and William Adams's group under A+ Records, as well as a large number of bodyguards such as Big A, Mawota, Tony, and Silencer, and went to New York to participate in the first hip-hop music awards held by TheSourec magazine.

Prepared in advance, the group was placed in the leftmost area of the theater, far from the right-hand side of the braggart daddy, and the Jewish owner of TheSourec magazine arranged different entrances for the two groups.

They and the West Coast group led by Death Row Records are also separated by southern rappers such as Huang Yuan, and CoolJ's people will also help take care of it, so it should be foolproof.

"Oh my God, it's like the five mafia families are having a national convention."

Becky also arrived at the scene to meet, and she and her fellow Billkinsley were protected by Song Ya in their own right, and Billy Kingsley complained: "This is the most chaotic awards show I've ever seen." ”

Indeed, the whole theater is very small, and groups of fierce old blacks keep coming in, crowded, and many singers still have a grudge against each other, and there were several small pushes and shoves before it began, and some of the attendants had to come in, but they found that there were no seats, so they stood everywhere. The whole hall is filled with a strong smell of body odor and perfume.

Some of the guys who don't know the rules ran from the backstage to the stage aisle to see the excitement, and found that they could be seen by all the audience in the audience, and they also complacently gestured to the people below with hip-hop gestures.

"This is the world of the rap scene."

Song Ya himself was no better, and the people he brought were not allocated enough seats, but fortunately there was the wall of the theater next to it, and the silencers and Mawota were standing in a row against the wall. Of course, he couldn't complain in front of Pykinsley, so he had to pretend to say something.

"I've heard someone came in with a gun." The big A who was sent to explore the way was extremely excited to socialize with rappers from all walks of life and come back to gossip.

“WTF?” Song Ya felt even worse.

"Definitely, there's not even a metal detector at the entrance." Mike Sr., who was close to him, said, patting his waist, "It's easy." ”

Feelings, he also brought the gun in......

Song Ya couldn't help but be glad she didn't bring Maria Carey, "Wait a little longer when Phigi and I accept the award, keep an eye on the people on death row records and bad boy records." He instructed his subordinates that if it wasn't for the prize, he would have planned to leave early, and now he has no choice but to bite the bullet, and there must be no cowards in the hip-hop circle.

"Understood." Everyone agreed.

"Big E didn't come, Sugnight didn't come either, and Mary Bliget ......" Big A continued to report.

"Really? That's great. "Song Ah is worried about Big E's revenge, Sugnat is crazy, and Mary Bliget is talking nonsense about K-Ci, it's just great that they are not there," Then I'll go over and say hello to Dre and CoolJ. ”

"It should be fine." Big A led the group to hug and protect him, got up and walked to the middle of the theater.

"Look! S……”

"It's a ruthless character, and it's making a lot of money, 100 million, from white people."

"Of course, wait! Is he going to take the initiative to provoke the people of Harlem? ”

"This guy is really not afraid of bragging dad going crazy? He killed K-Ci! ”

"It's not him, it's Lori Jr. who sent someone to do it."

"It's all the same, they're all real bandits, look at those followers......"

"Maybe his henchmen are all richer than me, and just now in the parking lot, I saw that the big A's were all driving Ferraris."

This kind of big battle is also quite bluffing, and with the blessing of urban legends, when passing by the seats of some guests, people's whispers reached his ears.

"Hey, Drey, what's the matter, didn't Sugnight and Snoop Dogg come?" "He hugged and punched Drew.

"Snoop Dogg has a case and can't come, Sugnight has something." Dre looked nervouser than he was, and looked around warily.

"2PAC didn't come because of the case?"

"He's backstage, and he's going to perform on stage later." Dre said.

The two chatted for a while, Song Ya went to say hello to CoolJ again, and Kane's dad was also there, but the momentum had fallen too much compared to back then, Song Ya remembered his old friendship and went to chat with him for a while, and by the way, he took the opportunity to observe the place where the braggart dad and their Harlem singer sit, braggart dad still looked like a big guy, sitting in the first row, and was talking to his subordinates angrily, and he didn't know whether he didn't make eye contact with himself intentionally or unintentionally.

"Maybe you should get Fergie out of this environment."

When he returned, Pykinsley whispered into his ear again.

"I thought that was settled." Song Ya responded very unhappily, "My hip-hop music made her popular and made money. ”

"I'm saying this for her benefit." Billkinsley said.

"Come on, Pat, I've seen a little bit of Hollywood routines, and when I was making a movie, a casting director was working against me, guess what he was for? is to use this way to gain more power for yourself in the crew, I think you are the same now, don't pick topics I don't like to talk about, this kind of trick is useless to me. ”

Song Ya pierced her mercilessly, "What is your true purpose?" The agents of Hollywood superstars usually don't come to this kind of occasion and take risks to talk to me about the impossible. ”

"Well, I can really be the youngest African billionaire, and those words make me start to respect you APLUS."

Billkinsley laughed, "Are you interested in switching to CAA?" With all due respect, your second major may not be a big seller, and I see that you are also preparing to move your career to Hollywood, where I am much more powerful than Donovan and your unknown little role main manager. ”

Song Yachai is like this, "I will consider CAA and you as the object of my next brokerage contract, but until my contract with William Morris expires, you are not allowed to use Phigi to annoy me." Otherwise, I'll let her fire you, who do you think she'll listen to. ”

"OK, I see."

Billkinsley looked back at Becky, who was as well-behaved as a bunny in this environment, bowing her head and concentrating on chatting with her assistant, "Can you send a few people to escort me out?" Over here...... I'm a little out of breath here, uh, I'm not discriminating against anything. ”

"Understood."

Song Ya asks Tony and the silencer to send her out early.
