Coming back from Old Joe's record, "Uh......" Song Ya looked around from the people around her, and still picked his brother Tony, "Tony, you will accompany Goodman to negotiate the contract with Old Joe tomorrow, keep an eye on it, don't make the scene stiff, and finalize it if you think it's almost over." I don't want to do a good job, but in the end, I can't write a few songs a year because of money, you know. ”

Tony can handle the relationship with people like Old Joe by his side, although Al has untied the knot with Old Joe, but it is not as good as Tony to ease the atmosphere.

"Don't worry, Ali, wrap it up with me." Tony was happy, "I bring a silencer?" ”

"Yes, don't cause trouble."

The next day, Song Ya and Fei Ji appeared at the gate of the campus, Song Ya wore a leather jacket on her body, a pair of school uniform pants underneath, and a schoolbag on one shoulder, while Fei Ji was dressed in a campus style, holding a few books in her hands. The two acted affectionately and laughing, in fact, humming 1, 2, 1 in their mouths to coordinate the steps, and Yeremov thought that the same pace best reflected the couple's sense of love.

After walking back and forth for more than ten minutes, when the invited street photographer was satisfied, the two got into the car and went home? I'm too busy before the bill, so let's talk about it when I have time.

"How's the prize going? Hayden. ”

Walking into the study, Song Ya saw Hayden sitting in front of the TV silently, as if he was struggling with something.

Hayden didn't answer, and pressed the remote control in his hand.

"BET News, I'm Gordon, welcome back, about the Grammys ......"

"We've noticed a recent rumor that in the Best Single of the Year category, since only APLUS and Mariah Carey are black in the five groups of nominees, the majority of black judges should vote for them. Well? Wait, let's not talk about their much fairer skin color, just in terms of this logic, I also think it is completely unreasonable, music knows no race or national borders, and the award selection should be even more ......"

BET's full name is Black Entertainment Television, black entertainment television, founded by Robert Johnson, a senior black media person, and the target audience is also black, it is the first all-black cable television station in the United States, and it is also the first black-controlled listed company on the New York Stock Exchange. Because of the relationship between the cable station, his coverage is not large, but his influence in the black community is getting higher and higher, especially since his listing last year. The TV station also has a certain influence in the music industry, because he started by broadcasting various music videos for free to attract subscribers.

“WTF？”

This backstab made Song Ya inexplicable, "Because of the relationship between Quincy Jones and Russell Simmons, I couldn't get many black votes in the first place, but now I'm being attacked because of this?" ”

"Completely disregarded for the facts, but deadly, if this rumor spreads, oh no, it has already spread, and the black judges will think before they vote, and the white judges will hate you." Hayden rubbed his eyebrows, "I called Donovan, and he admitted it was tricky. The main BET, a television station that speaks for black people, is more credible for them to take the initiative to say this kind of statement. ”

"Even if I can refute the rumors, it's too late, right? The judges will be sending out ballots in two days. Song Ya's face turned cold, "Can I sue this TV station?" ”

"I can't sue him, even if I name and spread rumors to win, it will take a long time, not to mention that he hasn't yet."

"I called Yeremov and Eli, and they came right away, and now it's time to use crisis PR," Hayden said. ”

Taragi rushed in, "Motula. ”

"Hello Mr. Motula." Song Ya picked up the phone, "I don't have it, I won't use that kind of canvassing method, I'm not a fool!" ”

"Really?" Motura was upset, "You kid know the cost of deceiving me, don't you?" ”

Belch...... Dude, I didn't just deceive you......

"I know, I wouldn't do something that stupid!" Song Ya said: "I'm completely inexplicable now! Not only have I never dealt with BET, but I'm not going to spread the stupid stuff that black judges have to vote for black people. You know, I didn't expect any black judges to vote for me because of Quincy Jones and Russell Simmons' relationship! ”

"Hmm. BET's president, Roberto Johnson, attended the University of Illinois, and host Gordon also got his start in the Detroit media, and they have a good relationship with Quincy Jones. ”

Motura said, "I'll talk to Johnson, this time Quincy Jones crossed the line!" He hung up angrily.

Songya called Hamlin over as well, and when Yeremov and Eli arrived, they immediately began a meeting to discuss.

"Reverse manipulation of racial issues, but I have to admit that Quincy Jones has a beautiful hand, very beautiful."

Eli couldn't think of any good way for a while, "Do you have to win this award?" APLUS？ ”

"It's just an award, I'm still young, and there are still many opportunities in the future, so I have to win it."

Song Ya replied: "But if you want to take it, then I really want to take it." ”

"Anyway, let's make a statement to clarify." Hamlin suggested.

"Nope." Hayden disagreed: "Have you forgotten about the Rodney King case? The reversal news of the most influential cable station CUU has not caused much turmoil under the deliberate ignorance of all parties, and the coverage rate of BET is even lower, as long as the wireless station and the paper media do not reprint it on a large scale, the public opinion turmoil caused by it can still be controlled, if we take the initiative to clarify, then this news will attract the attention of the public, and the gains outweigh the losses. ”

"Playing dead?" Song Yazhi shook his head, "This is not a good strategy for crisis public relations. ”

"Sometimes it's the best way to cope."

Eli snapped his fingers suddenly, "The current situation is like this, the entry point of the other party's smear is very powerful, we are really not easy to deal with, clarify?" will amplify the impact, and what do we clarify? Didn't carry out that kind of PR rhetoric? Not many people will believe it, after all, it is like something that African Americans can do. Fighting a PR war? What's the use? Our goal is to win the Grammys, and even if the PR battle is out, the judges' votes will already be sent. Therefore, the target of our public relations must be BET, as long as they do not authorize other media to reprint, and then issue a false statement to minimize the negative impact. If you run away some tickets, you can only admit bad luck. ”

"Is BET boss Johnson a member of the Donkey Party?" Song Ya asked.

Hayden called Donovan, "William Morris will fax his information." ”

It didn't take long for the fax machine to start creaking, "Wow...... With a bachelor's degree from the University of Illinois and a master's degree from Princeton University, Johnson was an elephant party in the context of such a donkey-leaning education. He has a very good relationship with John Malone, the godfather of cable TV and CEO of TCI, and is considered the most successful black man in the business field in the United States. ”

"FXXK, there aren't many blacks in the elephant party, but none of them are easy to deal with......"

Song Ya's social relations are all useless, in this era, like the black people in the party, they have a tough personality, conservative political tendencies, and they don't have much affection for the black compatriots who make profits through the issue of equal rights, and they are more willing to integrate into the white system and rely on personal struggle to get to power, so they are often scolded for being black-skinned and white-hearted, such as Condoleezza and Colin, who are currently serving in the Elephant Party government. A black police officer scolding in FXXK tha Police.

He remembered that Michelle had also attended Princeton and made a phone call, but the other party and Johnson were not familiar with each other.

It was Motura who solved the problem, "APLUS, go to Washington, Johnson is a little interested in you, let's talk to him in person." ”
