Chapter 399: A Thousand Clues
Song Adam immediately called Xue Linfen to inform her of these two good news, but she still didn't take it seriously, and she happily coaxed a child to deal with it as happily as last time.
"Hmph, Sherlyn, don't underestimate me, let Tim contact Geffen Films and Amperin Entertainment as soon as possible." Song Ya stopped giggling with her, and hung up the phone directly after saying it.
“APLUS。”
Goodman came, and Song Ya gave him the task of finding an old man who was proficient in criminal investigation simulation portraits, "Okay, I'll figure it out." He jotted it down, but didn't ask much, "Well, there's something for you." ”
Goodman brought bad news, in the fluorescent agent poisoning case in New York, the vulture lawyer hired by the other party began to make trouble, and kept applying for more witnesses to be present at the trial, which were basically the people present during the filming of the fluorescent party clip of Where Is The Love MV, including director Larry, as well as the producer of Sony Columbia Records, the cameraman, assistant director and other staff, as well as actors such as Ferggy, Amy, and Al.
"These bastards."
Song Ya knows that this is a common routine of relying on litigation to force celebrities to choose heavy settlements, and their goal is not to win the lawsuit, but to try to make the lawsuit as big as possible to embarrass the celebrity, for example, at this time, applying to subpoena Phigie and Amy to testify in court is a good news breaking point.
Then harassing celebrities' social circles is also their forte, such as Larry and others who have been asked by themselves to do publicity for fluorescent agents, and they will have to face the entanglement of whether to commit perjury for themselves when they go to court. Although he did not put pressure on them, and the court would not agree to call so many witnesses, a person like himself who brought trouble to social relations would definitely be alienated by social relations in the future, after all, everyone was very busy and did not have time to wipe the ass of other people's faults.
As a busy star, of course, he is even more reluctant to appear in court, in addition to the cost of time, every time he enters and exits the courthouse, it is a damage to his reputation.
"They got the settlement down to eight million." Goodman said.
"Let them die." Song Ya scolded.
"But you'll have to prepare a psychological price." Goodman said: "Hamlin suggested that we could compromise as long as the total settlement amount did not exceed one million......
"I'm not going to let those fools get their way." He thought about it calmly, "If you ask Yeremov to let out some news, just say that I am young and have more money, and I would rather give the money to the lawyers to earn than lose them a dime." ”
"I know that, but we have to have a preset bottom line, right?" Goodman asked.
"Last time, Ford paid those plaintiffs $7,500 each, right?"
Song Ya replied: "At this price, the plaintiffs who were poisoned at the party are 7,500 dollars each, and my stupid 'fan' organizer can give a little more, and this money is not a lot, and the fluorescent agent used by their M-Fxxk doesn't even have anything to do with me!" ”
Goodman calculated, "Then our bottom line is about 200,000 dollars?" He said: "Those vulture lawyers will never agree to this price, and they themselves will probably lose money to go in." ”
"Either lose money, or leave the market with a small loss, let them choose for themselves. If you dare to harass me, you have to be prepared to pay the price. Song Ya said: "After Ford spent a huge amount of money to win that lawsuit, did it have a lot less porcelain lawsuits? I'm going to do the same, to make an example of the monkeys. ”
"Kill what? Never mind. Goodman didn't dwell on the Chinese idiom that came out of his last words, "Okay, let me inform Hamlin, you also have to be mentally prepared to go to court in New York, and they will definitely test your resolve." ”
At this time, the phone rang, it was Mariah Carey, Goodman was gone.
"Hello ......"
She pinched her throat and deliberately spoke coquettishly, "I've been waiting for your call." ”
"Just broke up, and there are a lot of things to deal with." Song Ya smiled: "I didn't lie to you, Mimi, I did it." ”
"Uh-huh." She was visibly happy, "Are you still busy?" Why don't I play later? ”
"No...... You wait. ”
Just as I wanted to continue talking, there was a knock on the study door, "Come in." He had to put people in first, the general manager of Bath and two executives.
"There are so many reporters out there, I just saw Goodman, is the case in New York okay?" The other party put a stack of documents in front of him, "The factory needs to continue to add people when it reaches full capacity." ”
"Then you are busy, call me again when you have time, I will wait for you any night." Mariah Carey was rarely so gentle and considerate, and took the initiative to hang up the phone.
"The case in New York is going to be fought for a long time. And more manpower? ”
It's easy to add people and it's hard to lay off employees, Song Ya had a headache when she saw more than 30 vacancies on the recruitment plan document, "How are our products selling?" ”
"It's nice, especially in New York and here."
The general manager of Bath also knew to bring something more persuasive this time, and an executive took out a videotape, and after getting permission, stuffed it into a video recorder to play it, and the picture showed a fluorescent carnival in a nightclub, accompanied by intense rave style music and lights, men and women dancing wildly, and the fluorescent substance on their faces and hands drew green lines in the dark.
"There are a lot of nightclubs that now have that kind of regular fluorescent nights, and it's a trend, and customers are buying it." The general manager said excitedly.
"What did I tell you last time?"
Song Ya casually threw the document back on the table, "Raise the price appropriately before running at full capacity, improve our profit margin first, and at the same time develop different colors to maintain the leading technology." ”
"That?" The general manager was a little hesitant and pointed to the recruitment plan on the table, "If the price is raised, it will be a big blow to the current sales momentum." ”
"Don't recruit people first, the fluorescent agent factory used to be only more than 50 people, after undertaking the after-sales service of Barn company in Huaguo, it has increased to more than 60, and last time more than 20 front-line workers and clerical and technical personnel were recruited, and now there are almost more than 100 people. It didn't take long for more than thirty more ...... to be added."
"I'm desperately bringing goods and taking on lawsuits, who is working for whom?"
Song Ya was unhappy when she thought of the lawsuit in New York, "Profit! Profit! I want profit! If I see the loss of the financial statements of 93 years, you will all fuck me off! ”
This sentence is too deterrent, "Okay, okay, let's make a new plan." The three of them hurriedly retrieved the documents and videotapes and left in fear.
As soon as the people left here, Scott's call arrived again, and the second batch of containers from Huaguo Garment Factory had already arrived at the port.
"In the future, we will maintain a long-term cooperative relationship with dealers at all levels, this time the volume is very large, and we are ready to distribute the whole rice. Due to the pressure of repayment, A+ clothing is still short of 3 million liquidity, and we need a loan. ”
A+ Apparel is also in arrears with its joint venture garment factory in China, so it needs a soft sister currency loan to maintain production, and it also needs a loan to maintain the operation of the growing company.
"Yes."
The stall is getting bigger and bigger, and things are complicated, but Song Ya doesn't want to be separated from his business by a layer of senior managers and the like, so he does everything himself, "Can you get a loan?" He asked.
"No problem, our last sales momentum was so hot."
Scott also asked about the case in New York, after the fluorescent agent case on the sales of Barn's products according to Eli's method of public relations, the effect is now positive, but the ready-to-wear is often mentioned with toxic fluorescent agents is certainly not a good thing, so Scott is more worried.
"It will fight for a long time, and I don't plan to reconcile easily." Song Ya replied: "It's still the same sentence, I will repeatedly deepen the impression of the public in the media, and you must also control the quality and don't make big mistakes." ”
"Don't worry."
The two began to coordinate the publicity plan and the allocation of the company's resources, and chatted until late.
