"You're planning to start expanding your sales next year, right?"

At this time, Song Ya was also dealing with politicians, and he asked Scott, the general manager of A+ Clothing.

"The current plan is like this, but the textile quota we have allocated to China is not enough, and I think we should join forces with major importers such as Walmart to go to Capitol Hill for public relations." Scott replied: "I heard that next year the General Assembly will abolish the multi-fiber agreement and replace it with the textile and clothing agreement, and the tariffs on Chinese textiles can be reduced, but the quota is still a problem." ”

"Really?"

Of course, Song Ya is willing to do this kind of thing, but he doesn't want to make the mistake of Barn Chemical's technical information, so that the professional manager feels that he is deliberately helping Huaguo, "You let it go, didn't we sign Ogilvy Advertising Agency to help with public relations?" ”

"We also have to move social relations as individuals." Scott hinted.

"Looking for a politician? Who can help? Song Ya lured him to take the initiative to bring up the words.

"Gorgo." Scott replied: "The deputy leader has been a senator for many years, and he is still very appealing. Mr. Underwood can help us connect with some of the MPs on Capitol Hill, plus the Elephant Party local councillors from the cotton-growing region......"

"Hey, wait, wait, wait." Song Ya hurriedly stopped him from dreaming, "This kind of thing shouldn't be led by a little shrimp like us, what does Walmart say?" ”

"They? Hehe...... No matter how small the plate, there's always something for them to eat, isn't it? Scott smiled wryly.

"yes, that's a problem......"

Song Ya understood, Wal-Mart is motivated to do this, but if the cost-effectiveness ratio is not cost-effective, with their energy, it is better to grab food in the original quota pool, but small enterprises like A+ clothing are not so well treated, "How much is the quota expansion beneficial to us?" ”

"Two percent of the current quota is enough."

"Can we eat it?"

"If we have a quota of energy, why can't we eat it? You're a billionaire, boss, how many billionaires are there in the United States now? ”

"It's also ......" Song Ya nodded in agreement with Scott's words, there is nothing embarrassing for a billionaire to ask for help from politicians, can you say something else, he immediately called Ogilvy.

Underwood, who was sitting in Washington, quickly smelled the rumors, "Doug, do you know about next year's Textiles and Apparel Agreement?" The part about quotas...... "The assistant who likes to hide in the shadows called, and Song Ya had to ask him, and then went to meet Underwood's wife, who was staying in Chicago.

"How's your movie going? I heard that the box office performance this week was average? "Claire is used to talking about something else first.

"Ranked seventh, I'm satisfied, Jim Carrey is too popular."

Song Ya replied.

Jim Carrey is so red and purple, his performance method is very appetizing to the audience in the United States, exaggeratedly, the audience in the cinema will not help laughing when his facial muscles move, this year he starred in three plays a year, all of them carried the box office alone, and the two currently released are big hits, and the cost of comedy is not too high. So now various Hollywood studios are waving film contracts and kneeling to beg him to take over the role, and he has only picked Warner's superhero blockbuster Batman series 'Batman Forever' to play the villain, Riddler.

The disguised monster unexpectedly drove Forrest Gump off the first place at the box office in the first week, and this week there is also a captivating story starring Nicolas Cage, and the box office and film schedule of Dance My Life both fell, and it is expected to end this week's screening with a score of about 9 million.

Of course, the baseball angels are still suppressed after struggling, and the current rankings are Strange Heroes in Disguise, Forrest Gump, True Lies, Client, The Lion King, Allure Story, Dance Out of My Life, and Baseball Angels.

The summer season was bloody but also delicious, with a box office base, and except for the slight noise from the critics, all the film media thought that his first 'electrocution' had been a great success.

And this kind of purely commercial film for young people does not need to deal with professional film critics, and they should advertise more than spend a lot of money on public relations.

"So you want to increase China's textile quota by another five percent?"

The two of them talked back and forth for a while, and Claire asked.

"Yes, my clothing brand is selling well this year, and professional managers want to do a big job next year." Song Ya replied.

"The total value of this quota is fixed, the more you have, the less others have, and there are different ...... Powerful people are involved. Claire said.

Song Ya shrugged, "Anyway, I want to try it, my company can't run out of goods to sell next year, and next year will be 95 years......"

"I understand."

96 is another election year, Claire smiled, neither of them talked about her charity, and now the two sides have a tacit understanding.

However, this matter cannot be done without the participation of the Elephant Party, the local forces of the Elephant Party in the cotton producing areas are potential allies, and the United States itself has no textile manufacturing industry, and the main enemies are importers from other Latin America and Southeast Asia and other origins, as well as the lobbying forces of the country of origin in Washington, such as the former Wal-Mart, fortunately, now Wal-Mart has begun to turn back.

"Gore received a million donations from you in '92, he'll help, right?" Goodman asked during the meeting.

"It's still the Underwoods, they like to take my business and sell points everywhere." Song Ya smiled bitterly, "Gore and I have never been able to establish a more intimate and direct connection. ”

"Perhaps that's the most comfortable thing for Gore, who has been targeting radical billionaires lately, like Perelman and John Malone." Goodman said.

"It didn't work out, maybe he didn't really plan to do anything to those business tycoons." Song Ya complained.

"What are you going to do with the elephant party?" Goodman asked.

"Senator McKenn of Arizona, it's almost enough to get him." Song Ya replied, "The others are tall ones like Wal-Mart." ”

"Continue to find John Liu as an intermediary?"

"No, McN has a very general relationship with Cheney and others served by John Willow, and I don't know the specific reason, but John Willow can't help."

"I've heard that this McCahn was nearly discredited by bribery allegations, and that he recently formed a faint cross-party coalition in the Senate, and that this kind of person is dangerous, and it is dangerous for him to maintain his position, and the guy who dares to act like this must be very ruthless." Goodman reminded with some concern.

"yes, so Ogilvy wasn't going to come out personally, they hired a good guy from a Washington political PR firm, a woman named Sloan."

"Female lobbyists? You're not going to see her either, are you? ”

"I'm going to have to hide myself a little deeper, it's not something I'll be able to do in a moment."

After starting the quota matter, Song Ya started his promotional itinerary in several big cities with black populations in the United States, and next week Universal's own little naughty will start painting, and the theater resources of Dancing My Life will drop sharply again, and his main goal now is to consolidate the movie-going community near the black and Asian communities before moving to long-term screenings, so as to reassure those theater owners who participate in long-term screenings.

"MR. ALPLUS, I HEARD THAT SEVERAL ART SCHOOLS IN CHICGO ARE VYING FOR A SCHOOL PROTOTYPE IN YOUR MOVIE? Can you tell us about which school you were inspired from? ”

At the Baltimore airport, a reporter asked, due to the influence of Dancing My Life, the number of applicants for several art schools in Chicago in the fall has increased significantly, so that the Art Institute of Chicago has to come out to clarify that his family does not have a dance major, and DePaul University, Lincoln Park and Columbia College, two major beneficiaries of related majors, reacted on the contrary, and they fought with each other over who was the prototype school of the film in order to compete for students.

This unexpected situation made Song Ya herself cry and laugh, and the social influence of the film can be seen, "I didn't go to art school, and of course it won't be the University of Chicago I attended." ”

The answer sparked laughter from reporters, "I know Baltimore has the Maryland Institute of Art." Song Ya went on to say that the original movie clearly placed the prototype at the Maryland Institute of the Arts anyway, "Maybe the story I wrote took place in Baltimore?" ”
