Chapter 457: Conversation Outside the Neverland Manor

"MJ said he didn't have to be treated sincerely, and in front of such emotional people, maybe I should give up saying those things that are staked and choose to cry and beg for help."

On the way out of Neverland, Song Ya complained.

"Will you?" Donovan asked.

", of course I can't do it." Song Ya rolled her eyes.

Old Mike, who was driving, suddenly reported, "There's a car following behind." ”

The two people in the back seat turned their heads to look through the back window, "It's okay, it's Sandy Gren's car." Donovan said.

"They're flashing lights, do you want to stop?" Old Mike asked.

Sandy Glenn's headlights flashed, "Stop." Song Ya looked in front of him, not far from the roadside guard post outside the Neverland Manor, "Stop there." ”

Old Mack pulled over in front of the sentry.

"You're out of the game, Sandy." Donovan smirked and stepped out of the car and said to Sandy Gren, who got out of the back car, "I think APLUS made it very clear just now." ”

After meeting MJ, the disappointed Song Ya was very dissatisfied with Sandy Glenn's failure to help attract support, so naturally he would not ask him to marry Kelly's agent again.

"Congratulations, but I didn't come here for Mariah Carey's brokerage."

Sandy Glenn and Lee Phillips also got out of the car, "Mr. David Geffen was on the way ahead, and I told him you were there and he was going to talk to you first. ”

"Let's talk here?" Song Ya asked as he poked out of the car.

"That's it."

"Okay." The California sun was strong in mid-July, but the private driveway was on the edge of the Padres National Forest, and a few people took refuge in the shade of the trees nearby.

"APLUS, WHAT DID YOU JUST TALK TO MJ?" Sandy Glenn asked.

"Didn't he tell you? You are his agent. Song Ya asked rhetorically.

"You see, that's the problem." Sandy Glenn and Lee Phillips looked at each other, a little worried, Lee Phillips took out the delicate cigarette case and gestured, everyone waved their hands, and he lit it himself and smoked.

The conversation was interrupted and could not continue, and soon, a Rolls-Royce Phantom 6 drove in opposite directions, and David Geffen arrived, "Hey, Sandy, Lee, Donovan." "The tycoon wore a Hawaiian flower shirt, like he had come on vacation.

"APLUS, HOW'S THE MOVIE GOING?" He looked for words to greet.

"Uh, it's hard to say, it's a lot more complicated than making a record, I'm trying." Song Ya shook hands with him.

"Haha, yes, I had the same experience as you." David Geffen tilted his head and gestured, "Follow me." ”

The two of them chatted as they walked into the distance, "What will Motura do to you?" He asked.

"I don't know, behind our Mr. President, the imagination is always rich." Song Ya humored.

"Haha, I appreciate your mentality, keep it up." David Geffen smiled, "You pried her woman away." ”

"Mimi is free."

"Yes, she's free, but everybody knows she's Motula, and that's going to make him embarrassed."

"Wow, your words are a bit discriminatory, women are not anyone's property." Song Ya said.

"OK, when I didn't say it." David Geffen's personal image is that of a pioneer of same-sex equality, and of course, it does not affect the potential of this two-way plug in Hollywood and the record industry.

"Sorry, I'm overreacting."

"It's okay." David Geffen smiled and waved his hand, "So...... You're coming to MJ for support, right? ”

"Yes, I need support, maybe you can help me when I start a rebellion or something." Song Ya said.

"We're willing to do anything that would make Sony Columbia Records unlucky." David Geffen also made no secret of the fact that most of his business is with Universal, including Universal Pictures and MCA Records, "but it must not hurt MJ." ”

"I understand that I am friends with him, and besides, I need his help." Song Ya nodded, "He is the king of pop, and I am just a rookie singer who has just released a specialty." ”

"Hah! New Singer ......" David Geffen gave a short laugh, "Maybe we will have a chance to work together when you look for your next job, and remember, the door to Geffen records is always open to you." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Geffen." Song Ya heard that the other party was not optimistic about the rebellion he launched, but he still didn't want to reveal the matter of the tape, this kind of big guy was an absolutely uncontrollable factor.

"You don't like men, do you?" David Geffen turned back and walked towards the car.

"Of course." Song Ya followed him.

"That's good, no one likes to pry their own women and plot to overthrow their own men, and I have no scruples about that." David Geffen winked at him, "Maybe you'll find that you don't have many options then." ”

"Maybe."

Song Ya smiled bitterly, the other party was not very polite today, but what he said was not unreasonable, if he failed in the rebellion and was driven out of Sony Columbia Records, it would be difficult for the other five major record companies to dare to accept such a thorn in his face.

"OK, that's all."

David Geffen patted him on the shoulder, sat back down at Rolls-Royce, and went to Neverland with Sandy Glenn.

"Donovan."

Song Ya didn't rush to get in the car, looked at the taillights of the two cars and asked: "MJ was inside just now, and told me that he was tired of being told that there were always people saying win-win things in front of him, among which David Geffen and Madonna were given as examples, is there anything to say?" MJ doesn't seem to trust him much. ”

"Him and Madonna?"

Donovan thought for a moment, "Madonna has her own record label under Warner, and often helps Warner recruit singers, and David Geffen is similar, he also has a profit in MCA Records after selling Geffen Records to Universal's MCA, so both of them have the motivation to try to seduce the King of Pop to their side." ”

"Sony gave MJ such a big contract, and the liquidated damages must be sky-high, so others can't dig it, right?" Song Ya asked.

"Who knows, David Geffen helped MJ get rid of his former agent Di Lio, marginalized lawyer Blanca, and in return, MJ gave MCA the management rights of the North Mi tracks from the ATV rights library, which used to belong to Momoyo."

Donovan recalled: "MJ also forced Sony to oust the homophobic Yatnikov, the former president of Columbia Records, and Sony chose Motula, who in some ways was a direct beneficiary of the feud between David Geffen and Yatnikov. ”

"They're not friends, are they? David Geffen was watching the play when I was fighting Motura in '91 and taught me a lot of things. Song Ya asked.

"Friends? Hehe, it doesn't matter if you are a friend in front of interests, he has interests in MJ, but not in Sony Columbia Records. Donovan replied: "Of course, I don't know how they do it in private, it's hard to say, MJ controls his business very well, and the distribution of benefits is extremely complex and delicate, like a fog, no one can tell how this huge empire works." ”

"Anyway, David Geffen is his ally, right?" Song Ya asked again.

"But as you saw just now, MJ shut out several of David Geffen's friends, Sandy Glenn, Lee Phillips, and Botfield, leaving only Aaron Grubman, who has a shallow foundation and is more detached." Donovan said.

"Political balancing act?"

"Anyway, I guess it's time for MJ and David Geffen to come to an end, and MJ won't let the people around him be friends with another industry tycoon." "MJ has a clear vision, he's going to build his own record empire, and he's going to get rid of all the people who are trying to control him, Dirio, Quincy Jones, and now it's David Geffen's turn," Donovan said. ”

"Fxxk, then he won't help me deal with Motula." Song Ya scolded.

"What are you going to do?" Donovan asked, "This rebellion is on your side William Morris, if it fails, many of my agents' singers may also be liquidated by Sony's Columbia Records Department, and Tula's character will definitely do it." ”

"Don't worry, I will renew my contract with you next year, and you can also negotiate Mariah Carey's brokerage contract, and I will also provide support."

Song Ya reassured him.

At this time, the mobile phone rang, and it was Gao Shu, "Come to the headquarters, Mr. Schulhoff wants to see you." ”
