Senator Warren is really direct in private, and he doesn't even pay much attention to political correctness, pointing to the joke of planting cotton by African Americans, and of course, on this occasion, Song Ya doesn't want to express his dissatisfaction.

"Have you ever heard of the smile curve theory? One end and one tail two profit high, the source of raw materials and technology patents, tail sales, brand added value and services are local, other assembly and processing of low value-added dirty work is handed over to others, displayed on the chart, is a bit like a smile curve...... Besides, even if you can keep those jobs in the United States, no one here wants to do them. ”

Unable to go on on with the question of what specific help was needed, Senator Warren shifted the conversation to job opportunities, and Song Ya sold a few theoretical words in a very broad way.

"Did the old guys at the University of Chicago teach you?" The other party asked.

"Well, ...... I saw at the airport bookstore," Song Ya replied.

"Hah!" Warren smiled.

"The original article is about the electronics industry, but there is no problem with using it in the textile industry." Song Ya added.

"Are you really going to make the brand like GAP?" Senator Warren shook his head: "I haven't heard of any celebrities doing this kind of business." ”

"GAP's lobbyists aren't around, are they?" Song Ya looked up.

This time the two senators, Underwood and Sloane were amused, "Most of my clothes are sold through outlets, Walmart, Sears, Target, etc., and I don't have a plan to follow GAP's massive self-owned stores for the time being." Song Ya said.

Warren and McKenn looked at each other.

“APLUS。” Underwood patted Songya on the shoulder and reminded him that it was time to leave, "Sorry, Mr. Senators, APLUS is here to visit the Capitol and can't stay too long." ”

"Bye, you're funny, perfect boy." Warren gripped the steak in front of him again.

"Nice to meet you, Senator Warren, Senator McKenn." Standing up, he followed Underwood out of the dining room, ignoring Ms. Sloane, who was staying inside, "Is there any hope?" He asked Underwood.

"Just do your best, other big companies are also staring at this, don't rush to a prominent position." Underwood reminded, "Doug." "Put him back in Doug's hands.

"Thank you very much, Councillor Underwood, thank you very much." After greeting Underwood, he returned to the choir children with Doug before leaving the Capitol after the normal open house process.

"Ms. Sloan will later list an expense, and then we will pay Ogilvy in the name of public relations, and Ogilvy will pay her lobbying agency in the form of consulting fees, and the rest will not be related to us."

Called Scott, looked back at the towering Capitol, and even if he had completed his task, "Linda, how is the box office of my life?" ”

"Beimi has been in theaters for five weeks, with a box office of about 53 million dollars, and less than 900 theaters scheduled for the sixth week, which has already been considered a long-term screening, and the box office ranking is expected to fall outside the top ten." Linda reports.

"Not bad?"

"It's very good, plus the global box office can easily reach hundreds of millions." Linda laughed, "You've got off to a good start in Hollywood, boss." ”

"A table for the follow-up schedule."

Song Ya has to take a closer look at the table, the long-term screening of the first phase of Universal will last for a whole month, and the number of theaters will be reduced from more than 800 to 500 every week, until their blockbuster Timecop (Timecop) is opened, and then they will conduct another evaluation and decide not to continue with the second round of long-term screenings.

However, the share of long-term screenings is very low, and the producers can't get much, which only helps to pile up beautiful total box office figures, and for himself, it is a matter of personal reputation.

"The starring role of the space-time SWAT is Shange Yunton?"

When Song Ya saw the name on the form, she remembered that the Jedi Shuangzun crew where the other party was located had sniped back to the blue reef, and used the means of exposing Mira's black material and her relationship with herself, and indirectly caused the two to break up.

"Yes, how?" Linda doesn't know about this past, "Shange Winton has developed well in the field of hardcore action movies, and the ultimate target he took over last year received a good response, which was directed by Hong Kong director John Wu. ”

"Is it red?"

"Forget it, although the production cost of that kind of action movie is generally not high, it especially needs a tough guy male protagonist to carry the box office alone, the time and space special police and the strange master in disguise, are all comic films of dark horse comics, and the production cost is 27 million." Linda replied.

Forget it, that incident may not have anything to do with Shang Ge Yunton himself, since he is still popular, then he can't step on it casually now......

Song Ya shook off the thoughts in her head.

The next important decision is to make whether or not to go to the VMA Awards ceremony in early September.

This is different from the situation last year, at this time last year, Lei Shidong had not yet won Paramount, and he had no conflict of interest with himself who was close to the world, and he asked MTV's Lesgarand to express his stance in front of him, this year...... But there is nothing, she and Mariah Carey have no awards to receive, and the VMA awarding party still likes to make trouble so much......

"Fergie was nominated for Best Rap Music Video for London Bridge, but it's unlikely to win." "I heard that MJ and Lisa Presley would be going, and this was his first appearance out of a criminal case," Linda said. ”

"Then we won't go, just go alone."

I don't want to accept the award, but there are still cooperation projects with MTV, and now most movie soundtrack MVs will be recorded by using the movie's wonderful plot clips interspersed with singers' pictures, saving money and trouble, and you can also borrow the movie's own picture and popularity.

There is no official MV to copy for this series of apocalypse music, Song Ya simply wrapped the music video to the production department of MTV station, which can be regarded as fulfilling his promise to Lei Shidong, after all, the original MV of Lightning Dance, which helped MTV a lot back then, was played in a loop at his house in this way, Lei Shidong also said that if I dance my life well, I will give some resources, but the old man doesn't seem to remember it.

At present, MTV is negotiating with Universal Pictures and Sony Columbia Records, both of which are large companies, and this kind of cooperation has certain rules and regulations, and it should be negotiated immediately.

"Then it's not far from the day you start school."

The summer vacation is over, and the summer vacation is over, "You run back to Chicago to go to school, Miss Kelly will definitely lose her temper, do you want to take another school season?" Be What You want Be is still at the top of the B chart, and we also need high-intensity publicity to consolidate the album's popularity. ”

Linda knew he didn't want to interrupt his studies again, so she carefully persuaded him.

"What does Daniel mean?" Song Ya asked.

"Of course he wants you to sell more records, and this is his first year at Sony Columbia Records." Linda said.

"Hey, Daniel." Song Ya called the other party, "How are my soundtracks selling?" ”

"Very good...... Uh, uh......" Daniel on the other end of the phone seemed to be in a trance, "we need you to keep up the rhythm of the announcement." ”

"What's wrong? Is something wrong? Song Ya asked.

"There was a very unexpected circumstance...... "it seems that MJ wants to take ownership of Sony Music Rights......

“What？”

Song Ya was even more surprised, "Becoming the master? Is Sony willing to sell? That's the core asset of a record company. ”

"MJ offered to merge his ATV music rights library with Sony...... Daniel said.

This is shocking news in the music market, "ATV owns the rights to many of the Beatles' songs, right?" Song Ya asked.

"Sony also has ...... from Elvis Presley, Barbra Streisand, Kelly King, Michael Burton, etc." Daniel said, "and your ...... with Miss Kelly"

"Hah! So if the merger is completed, won't I have to pay MJ for singing my own songs in the future? Song Ya smiled, "Same as Paul McCartney." ”

"It's a joke, but it's not wrong to be serious......"

"As soon as MJ got out of the case, he couldn't wait to show the music market his power as the king of pop," Daniel said. ”

"It's none of your business, right? Anyway, Sony Music Copyrights exists independently of Sony Columbia Records. Song Ya asked.

"It's not true, but I finally understand why Lisa Presley married him."

Daniel said: "For historical reasons, Elvis Presley's Song Rights Management Committee has a lot of say in Sony's music rights library...... So MJ teamed up with Elvis Presley's daughter this time to make the entire Sony very passive. ”

"Political marriages? I see! Song Ya gasped, "Lisa went to accompany MJ who was caught in a lawsuit last year, right?" ”

"Yes, the woman may have gone with a mission, the Elvis Presley Copyright Management Committee behind her, and the Scientology ......"

"No wonder Elizabeth Taylor said before that Lisa Pressley had ulterior motives and took the initiative to come to MJ's most difficult and helpless time, if it had been planned, it would have been too calculated." Song Ya sighed, "She wasn't divorced at that time, right?" ”

"Yes, but the woman's mind is not so bright, and she doesn't fully grasp Elvis' copyright assets, so the idea will only come up with the committee behind her, and this deal is in their favor, because Elvis Presley's copyright committee has a lot of say in Sony's copyright library and can profit from ......the deal," Daniel said.

The mall is like a battlefield, these people really do everything, and even marriage can be used for trading.

Song Ya hung up the phone, and couldn't help but feel a little pity, if he had promised Elizabeth Taylor before, he might be able to influence MJ in this transaction and seek benefits for himself......
