Chapter 1047? I Have the Money
Chapter 1048 I have the money
"Will he... be okay?"
At noon the next day, Taraji picked up Shakira and her agent, Estefan, at the Miami airport. While driving, he watched from time to time the Latin woman beside her with a dreamy look in her eyes, who was asking herself questions. star.
I can't help but think back to her, Fergie, Amy...
Her words and deeds are more star-like than before, and her figure and face are more mature.
"You asked the boss?"
Taraji smiled slightly and replied: "He spent the same amount of legal fees as Simpson's time. In the United States... it should be fine."
Shakira: "That car accident...he always said it was an elaborate murder, someone wanted him dead, is that true?"
Taraji: "Of course, the Los Angeles police found 60,000 dollars in the driver's home, deposits and the like... The case is still being investigated."
Shakira: "He also said Mr. Motura was behind the scenes..."
"Ahem...Tommy? No, not likely."
Estefan in the backseat cleared his throat and interrupted, "I like APLUS very much, but his personality...he always overreacts to certain things, otherwise the relationship with Tommy wouldn't be so bad. Neither is Tommy. Someone who can really do that, he is a professional manager, not a mafia."
"I still remember how Tommy Motura used the loophole in the contract to blackmail before the boss released the first post..." Taraji retorted.
"Business is business."
Estefan: "The most men talk harshly to each other. Everyone plays singing, music, and art. The story of buying a murderer is too magical."
Taraji: "There are many musicians who have been assassinated and died suddenly, such as Lennon, and..."
Estefan waved her hand impatiently, "Okay, I know the girl in the record industry better than you, and this business isn't that scary."
Taraji: "Maybe because you are white, you don't feel so much pressure..."
Come, come, old black people, Estefan sneered in his heart: "We are Latino."
"White people.
"
Taraji glanced at the Spanish-born Estefan in the rearview mirror, and raised the corner of his mouth, "Oh, by the way, I remember that many Latin singers are signed to Sony Columbia Records, right?"
Talkative black girl, Estefan lost the mood to debate with APLUS's assistant and third-line actor, turned her head to look out of the car window, if it wasn't for the temptation of APLUS to sing the World Cup English theme song with Shakira, He wouldn't come here at this sensitive time today. Of course, everyone is not a fuel-efficient lamp. At the same time, he also used his promise to help collect a good Spanish theme song, hanging APLUS.
Taraji also kept his mouth shut and drove in silence.
'Anything new? ’ Estefan pulled out her phone to text a friend at Sony’s Columbia Records headquarters.
‘Don’t worry, the winner will be revealed at the afternoon meeting. ’ The other party replied.
After all, the Latin Gang is a bit fringe. Estefan knows that he will not have more information than APLUS. He needs to divide his bets and at the same time brainwash Shakira, the most promising singer under his banner. incitement to violence.
So the only sound of him and Shakira talking in Spanish along the way.
"Here we are, please wait a moment, I'll get your documents first, soon."
Arriving at the destination, Taraji quickly got out of the car and trot into the building.
"Shakira?"
Shakira was looking at the exterior of the building when another car happened to be parked in the parking space next to it, and the one who got off was... Amy Adams.
"Hey, Amy, why are you here?"
The two women looked at each other and scolded the scumbag in their hearts at the same time, but on the surface they immediately stepped forward and hugged like best friends.
"I brought Xiao Lizi to talk to APLUS about some movie affairs, how about you?" Amy asked back.
"I was doing a commercial show nearby, and I stopped by with Mr. Estefan because I have business to do, haha."
Shakira pointed to her manager, "Wait! Did you just say Little Li?"
She looked at Amy's car, and sure enough, another person got off, his complexion was as white as glowing.
"It's me? What?"
Xiao Lizi was pushed out of the car by his manager, stroked his golden parted hair unhappily, and replied casually.
In Shakira's eyes, the little Lizi got out of the car so gracefully, with five fingers passing through the blond hair just right, revealing a flawlessly handsome face, everything seemed to be in slow motion.
"Hold... sorry, I'm just... can you sign for me? I really like Romeo and Juliet played by you and Amy. I just watched it a few days ago, several times." Shakira felt her face When I have a fever, I am a little incoherent.
"Of course, no problem. Uh...give me a pen and paper."
Xiao Lizi put on a movie star look, asked his manager to take out a pen and paper, and smiled to sign autographs for female fans, Latin girl? Good looking, he lifted his eyelids and glanced up and down while discharging.
"Thanks."
Shakira happily took the other party's signature, and found that there was a hotel room number on it...
"If you want his autograph, just call me, there are as many as you can." Amy said to Shakira, glaring at the stinky little Li.
"I don't know. You..." Shakira pointed at the two, "Together?"
"How is it possible!" Amy detested this misunderstanding.
"No, no, hehe..."
Xiao Lizi doesn't dare to offend Amy now, for fear that she will sue in front of APLUS, "I seem to have seen you somewhere..." The more he looked at Shakira, the more familiar he looked.
"Let me introduce for you, Shakira, the queen of South America." Amy helped the two introduce, "This is Xiao Li..."
"No, no, don't talk nonsense, it's still far away." Shakira quickly waved her hand to deny it.
Estefan and Xiao Lizi's agent also shook hands and chatted. The group waited for a few minutes before Taraji ran back and distributed the documents he had prepared to them.
"Is there no shooting task today?"
Xiao Lizi followed the two girls holding hands and chatting with his hands in his trouser pockets. He was very familiar with this environment since he was a child on the set, and soon found that the doors of the adjacent football stunner and Apu's true story were closed. It doesn't look like it's working.
"They're all on location."
Taraji replied, guiding the two groups into their respective rooms.
"APLUS is also on location? When will you be back?" Xiao Lizi's manager asked.
"It's three to four in the afternoon, that's the plan."
Taraji replied: "He asked you to wait here for a while, there are too many extras on location, it's messy."
"Okay, let's wait."
Xiao Lizi's manager put down his briefcase and lay down on the sofa exhaustedly. It took nearly a day to fly from Milan, and it took nearly a day to make a connecting flight. It was very hard, "You take a shower first? Change clothes."
"OK."
The same is true for Xiao Lizi. He observed the backstage lounge that was used to entertain him. Looking at the layout of the dressing table and the layout of the suite, he knew that it was for the protagonist. The environment and facilities are very good. Amy didn't come in. It should be Xia Kira's room is up.
It's already here, he didn't bother to think too much, stretched his body relaxedly, yawned and walked into the shower room.
"Miss Taraji, APLUS..."
Manager Xiao Lizi fell asleep unconsciously. When he woke up, he found that it was already four o'clock in the afternoon, and APLUS was still missing. Xiao Lizi was sleeping on another sofa. He pushed open the door and saw Taraji who was talking in the corridor. and Estefan.
"The boss's filming progress is delayed, and he may have to come back later." Taraji said to the two.
"how long?"
Estefan was a little displeased. He picked up his cell phone, and the insider at Sony Columbia Records headquarters just sent a new text message, saying that the meeting over there was going on, but Howard Stringer had to come later because he had something to do. Involved in the new president candidate.
"Maybe another two hours or so, maybe later," Taraji replied.
"Aplus isn't there?" At this time another white man who was surrounded by others appeared in the corridor.
"Mr. Linton!"
Xiao Lizi's agent recognized that the other party was Linton, the president of Hollywood Pictures, and immediately went over to shake hands enthusiastically and introduced himself.
"Oh? Little Lizi is here too, to visit the class?" Linton pursed his lips and held back his natural smile.
"Yes, I heard that APLUS will be back in about two hours." Xiao Lizi's manager pointed to Taraji and replied.
"I know where he is, let's go find him together."
Linton is here to inspect the crew of Apu's True Story, and he knows that the two projects are sharing the stadium location today.
"That's the best, I'll call Xiao Lizi!"
Xiao Lizi's manager is eager to go with Linton. After producing blockbuster movies such as Cat and Mouse Game and Into the Deadly Island, the company has shaken off its box office poisoning label in the past two years. The film critics are also very good, and he is a film company boss whose status in Hollywood is rapidly rising.
"Mr. Estefan, are you not coming?" He asked the indifferent Estefan again.
"Forget it, Shakira needs to rest, we will wait for APLUS here."
Estefan shook her head and declined. She had been waiting for so long, so she simply waited until the results of the meeting at Sony Columbia Records before meeting with APLUS, so that she could make a choice.
"Okay, let's go then."
The agent called out Xiao Lizi who was also catching up on sleep, and the two chatted and laughed with Linton and others and rushed to the location.
Amy, who was deliberately forgotten by him, curled up on the sofa and fell asleep while chatting with Shakira. Estefan pushed the door in and told Shakira who was bored, "APLUS may not be back until night, we continue to wait."
"Um."
night……
Shakira looked at Amy who was sleeping soundly, subconsciously moved her buttocks and legs, and changed her sitting position.
The stadium where the location was filmed was not far away. Linton led Xiao Lizi and his agent over there, and walked unimpeded all the way into the dedicated channel for the main actors and actresses.
"Is that...Leonardo...Leonardo DiCaprio?! Ah! Ah! Leo!"
On the way, she was accidentally seen by a female staff member of the stadium. She immediately screamed nympho, and then quickly attracted more people.
"Don't interfere with the shooting." Linton looked at Xiao Li who was instantly surrounded by women with a smile, and told his manager.
"No." The broker promised.
Little Lizi was squeezed to and fro, but still maintained her demeanor, patiently signing autographs one by one, or agreeing to other requests.
A few minutes later, security personnel came to rescue, and a group of people walked out of the passage to the top stand overlooking the whole situation.
The group performances that filled the entire stands, as well as the actors who played the stadium security, staff, mascots, both teams, cheerleaders, etc., if it weren’t for the camera rails, equipment and busy crew members laid by the stadium, this place would be like a Have a real ball game.
"Today's scene is very grand..."
Manager Xiao Lizi sighed.
"Yes, today is the most money-burning day." Linton nodded, otherwise he would not have come here from Los Angeles in person.
Seeing that his ex-girlfriend Alicia Silverstone was there, Xiao Lizi immediately shrank his neck and sat in the crowd.
APLUS is in the middle of the field, half of his face is painted with the color of the middle school emblem. American high school varsity games sometimes wear this kind of attire compared to middle school, which is in the original film of Apocalypse.
This is beneficial to him, not to mention acting skills, just be a good background board.
The focus of the crew's shooting is still Mira, "I'm not a man, I'm a woman!" She defended herself loudly to the camera. In this scene, she was misunderstood by the principal and the villain as a twin brother.
"She...he's a man!" The actor playing the principal announced to the audience with a loudspeaker.
"What... what?" Song Ya looked at Mira with unacceptable eyes, "Impossible! He lives in the same dormitory with me, it can't be a woman!"
"Do you want me to prove it? OK!"
Mira pursed her lips and lifted her jersey boldly, exposing her chest to prove herself.
"WTF!"
All the actors and actresses stared at it, some exclaimed, hugged their heads, covered their mouths, and some took the opportunity to feast their eyes. Since many of them are not professional actors, it is difficult to shoot the photos of all living beings, and they are frequently NG. Now.
Of course, the expressions of the actors are all faked. There are protective measures under Mira’s jersey, and the screen will only be shown above the chest, otherwise it is impossible to get a PG-13 rating.
"Card!"
Old Larry called to stop, and finally expressed his satisfaction after this discussion, "That's all for today."
The whole crew cheered, the actors dispersed after get off work, and the staff began to pack up the equipment and clear the venue.
"APLUS!"
Linton greeted loudly.
"Hey, Mr. Linton, little plum..."
Song Ya waved to him, chatted with Mira, old Larry and others, and then ran over, "Where's Amy?" He didn't see Amy, and he asked when shaking hands with Xiao Lizi.
"Rest on set." Xiao Lizi withdrew his hand.
"Oh, sit down, let's talk here? Please sit down." Song Ya found the seat on the top row where the camera could not scan.
"Aren't you going back?" Xiao Lizi's manager asked.
"Since you are here, you are not in a hurry to go back." Song Ya said, "It's just a matter of time to watch the filming of Apu's true story."
He couldn't bring Linton back to the set, who visited suddenly, because Ovitz would come at night. Linton is the "direct descendant" of Disney Emperor Eisner. In this internal struggle, he stood firm and was an enemy of Ovitz. .
Linton was originally here for the original story of Apu, and he was the first to sit down. The group performances over there still used the same group of people, but the staff of the main story of Apu began to distribute costumes in the 1970s, Some flags and signs of the marathon were also erected, and several cameras were facing the direction of the stadium gate and the runway, without taking pictures of the stadium.
"Jared Leto came in and you cheered, did you hear that? A standing ovation! Applause! Crowd! With the greatest enthusiasm!"
The assistant director of the crew took a megaphone and told the extras to pay attention.
Jared Leto...
Xiao Lizi narrowed his eyes. This is his formidable enemy in Hollywood. After starring in Cat and Mouse Game, his stardom has become more and more magnanimous. He knows that the true story of Apu is an award-winning film.
Xiao Lizi glanced at Aplus who was chatting with Linton,
This guy's reaction just now was quite normal, neither enthusiastic nor obscene, so he felt relieved and focused on the scene, focusing on observing the details of the shooting.
"The director wanted to wait for the natural light at dusk."
Xue Linfen, one of the producers of Apu True Story, came over with her assistant with a sweet smile, "I only have coffee." I distributed it to everyone.
"No problem, thank you."
"Thank you, Ms. Finn."
Xiao Lizi and the others took the coffee, glanced at each other's swollen stomach, and couldn't help feeling more relieved.
"Where's Jared Leto?" Linton asked Shailene.
"We should be able to see him soon." Xue Linfen replied, then sat next to Song Ya, and reported the specific work of the crew to Linton.
"Mr. APLUS."
Xiao Lizi's agent seized the opportunity and whispered to Song Ya one of the purposes of the trip, to help Fox Films separate its relationship with FoxNews.
"I understand."
There's no need to mess with people, Song Ya pushed the boat smoothly, "But why did Fox Pictures let you... spread such words." He pointed at the other party and Xiao Li.
"It's just a drop in, Leo and I have something else to ask you." Xiao Lizi's manager replied.
"OK, let's talk."
"Well……"
Surrounded by Hollywood film industry, that is to say, people from Disney, Xiao Lizi's manager doesn't want to be heard, "It's not convenient... Let's talk when we go back?"
"OK."
Song Ya shrugged nonchalantly, "Mike, is there any water? Mineral water is fine." Since the morning, he has made thank-you calls all day to those who participated in the strike yesterday, and his throat is still smoking.
Most of the African-American actors who participated in the strike have participated in the movies they have invested in these years. It is the power of money. The money spent is not a one-shot deal, just like the money Song Ya paid to the fantasy lawyers. The lawyers want to win the lawsuit. They will hire investigators to buy evidence that the police have violated the justice of the evidence collection process, and investigators will buy police officers, or paparazzi, private investigators, etc., in order to complete their tasks.
Of course, it also includes film investment. How many jobs does a film provide? The labs, actors, movie theaters, video rental companies, etc. get income and have to deal with the high consumption of Hollywood. The flow and spread of money is like water flowing from a river. It flows into the pond, and then flows into more small ponds, and the influence it brings is exponentially diffused.
Just the A+ film studio, next year there will be more than three films released, including The True Story of Apu, Blade Runner, and Football Stunner. The actors and other related staff used in these three films are willing to respond to the strike, and they can already produce There was a lot of movement.
Um? Where did the thoughts go? Song Ya saw that Old Mike was pointing at the coffee brought by Xue Linfen, indicating that it was drinkable.
"I want to drink water."
"..."
Old Mike had no choice but to send bodyguards to get drinking water.
"Little Lizi?" Old Larry came up after finishing the finishing work, and he saw Xiao Lizi sitting low-key in the crowd at a glance.
"Director Jordan." Li Zi politely stood up and shook hands.
"Come to play? Or..." old Larry asked.
"Yes, come and have a look."
"Uh... are you interested in making a cameo in my show?" Old Larry originally had the idea, "There will be a coming-of-age ceremony scene in two days, and the two roles played by Mira need to appear at the same time. We lack a substitute. You don't even need to show your face."
"Huh?" In that scene, I would arm in arm with Mira's stand-in, showing off as a couple at the coming-of-age ceremony, and Song Ya frowned.
"Well……"
Xiao Lizi looked at the manager.
"Sorry, we are here on leave, and we have to rush back tomorrow to continue the announcement of the modern chapter of Romeo and Juliet."
Xiao Lizi's manager hesitated for a while, but still refused.
Song Ya breathed a sigh of relief, and glanced dissatisfied at the whimsical old Larry.
Old Larry thought he thought he couldn't handle it, "Are you really not coming? I can change that scene to tomorrow."
"It's said that something is wrong with Lizi, why are you forcing him to play a faceless role?" Song Ya felt that Lizi's manager was inclined to agree, so she quickly stopped her.
Linton and the others burst into laughter suddenly.
"Steve! Steve!"
At this time, the sun just fell to the right position, and the evening light filled the stadium. Everything was ready for the crew of Apu’s main story. The director gave orders, and the group of performers in the stands shouted out the legendary long-distance runner Steve Prefontaine name.
Jared Leto, with tanned skin and a bushy mustache, ran in from the gate of the stadium alone. He is now in the shape of a long-distance runner, and he doesn't look like a handsome boy in a game of cat and mouse. shadow.
"Jared is a good actor."
"Yeah, he's very dedicated."
"Is there any chance for this biopic to win an award?"
"There is drama. If you don't go all out, it's a waste of your talent..."
People in the Hollywood film industry discussed optimistically, and some people even recited Prefontaine's famous saying before his death, "Many people still miss him and the 1970s."
Xiao Lizi's mood was even more serious. Jared Leto performed a good performance of the marathon run before the finish line, the body was overdrawn and slightly hunched, breathing heavily, and dragging his feet. He raised his hands tiredly and hit the line with his chest.
Accompanied by jet streamers and cheers, all the extras stood up, and the applause and cheers were deafening.
"good, very good!"
Linton stood up and applauded with satisfaction, and everyone followed suit. Lizi felt a little bit bitter. Now the outside world thought that director Cameron's Titanic, which burned Fox Pictures' countless rice knives, would be an epic disaster movie, and his own As the leading actor, he knew very well that it was actually a bloody love drama.
M-FXXK! If Titanic screwed up at the box office, your career in Hollywood would be over!
And Jared Leto...
He looked at APLUS, this is already the second film he invested in to support Jared Leto, a commercial film and an award-winning film, so fucking caring!
"Actually, I know what you guys are going to talk about with APLUS, the Titanic, right? I can't hide this kind of thing from me. Fox Films has already borrowed a lot of money from Hollywood."
After admiring Jared Leto's wonderful acting skills, Linton was in a good mood. When the group returned to the set, he suddenly kindly reminded APLUS in front of Xiao Lizi's manager in the car that Xiao Lizi very cleverly found an excuse to lag behind and went to another A car, "The truck driver is very dangerous this time, and Fox Films is likely to be dragged down by him to bankruptcy." Linton said.
"Yeah?"
Song Ya looked at Xiao Lizi's manager in the passenger seat.
"Uh... that's about it. The Titanic has a funding gap, which is very important to Leo's future, Mr. APLUS, Mr. Linton."
I don't bother to tell lies in front of real people, and the agent admits it generously.
"How much is missing?"
"Six... sixty million."
"Emmmm..." Song Ya rubbed her chin and thought about it.
"Don't you really want to jump in there!?" Linton exclaimed in surprise when he saw his reaction, "With so much money, it's enough to open two plays just for Xiao Lizi!"
"Single play?" Song Ya turned her head again.
"My gosh, it's crazy!"
The two-way plug that is hard to persuade, Linton held his forehead, and didn't bother to care about it.
According to the apocalypse, if the little plum will become popular, at least the Titanic will not suffer a heavy loss. Because of the long-term cooperative relationship between Fox Pictures and Paramount, I know that Paramount intends to participate in the investment. Afterwards, I was once again proved that if I have a precise vision, I can give the enemy, the president of Paramount Xuelin Lansing a heavy blow, because she missed a very good opportunity.
It is said that the Titanic project has already burned 150 million dollars, plus 60 million, what is the concept of a movie with a production cost of more than 200 million? Not losing money means that the box office will definitely be ranked in the film history, and I will gain both fame and fortune, and I can also beat Shirley Lansing, killing three birds with one stone.
No, more than that, I also saved Fox from fire and water, so can I use it to make a deal with their parent company, the big boss Murdoch, to suppress the FoxNews news station that has always smeared itself?
Song Ya didn't know what Linton was thinking, the more she thought about it, the more benefits she would get.
By the way, there is also the one-off scene that Linton said. Since they pushed Xiao Lizi to beg themselves, it just so happens that the boy next door in the apocalypse movie in his mind has a good boy temperament and Xiao Lizi. Another degraded version of Little Lizi, replaced by Little Lizi as the leading role...
Then I took this opportunity to blackmail him and get a film contract from Xiao Lizi, he will become popular, and Titanic should have been released by then, probably it will become a box office guarantee, right?
"Let's have a good chat, Leo! Haha, last time at the nightclub, sorry, it was all a misunderstanding!"
After getting out of the car, Linton went to the studio of Apu's main story. Song Ya's attitude towards Xiao Lizi and the others became affectionate. He patted Xiao Lizi's shoulder who got out of the back car, and then led him and his manager with big strides. Walked into his own exclusive lounge.
"Yeah, misunderstanding, misunderstanding..."
Really funny? That's 60 million! The manager took a moment to stare hard at the ashen-faced little Lizi, and said with a smile, "Why don't you two talk first?"
"No! Taraji! Come here!"
There are so many benefits, I didn't expect that Fox Films would take the initiative to find me, Song Ya was very excited, money is no problem at all, the sales of A+ records alone are enough, and Taraji was called in, "You call Ye Lemov, let him join our meeting!"
"By the way, you are here authorized by Fox Films, right?" Song Ya asked Xiao Lizi's manager.
"Forget it, a message."
The manager looked at APLUS who couldn't wait, and couldn't suppress his ecstasy. Fox Films has begged Hollywood all over! I knew it earlier... "Leo, sit down!"
Yeremov resisted very much, which is also in line with the current general perception in Hollywood. Later, Xiao Li also found a senior executive from Fox Films to join the meeting. They chatted for more than an hour, but nothing came out. up.
Yeremov's objection was useless. After Song Ya calmed down, she didn't want the other party to find out her negotiation bottom line, and deliberately pretended to be persuaded by Yeremov.
"Leo is very willing to participate in your new project, why don't you have a chat alone? Mr. APLUS."
This little trick was very credible in the eyes of Xiao Lizi's manager. He couldn't help but feel like he had picked up an empty wallet, and made a last effort before Song Ya sent the two of them out.
"No, Mr. Estefan is probably in a hurry, and I will talk about it later when I have a chance."
Song Ya waved her hand.
Estefan was indeed waiting anxiously, but instead of waiting for him, the meeting at Sony Columbia Records was still in progress, and Howard Stringer still didn't show up.
"Shakira, Shakira, Amy, thank you for visiting me."
Song Ya walked into their room and hugged the two beloved forests, "Sorry, Mr. Estefan, I chatted with Xiao Lizi for a while."
"I heard." Estefan replied.
"What did you hear?" Song Ya didn't know why.
"It's nothing." Estefan didn't want to talk about the other party's privacy. The reason why he agreed to let Shaki pull over this time was that he was mainly concerned about the theme song of the World Cup. The previous agreement with Anschutz..."
"I can't tell."
There is no way around this matter, Song Ya can only do his best, "My lawyer team will find a way to change the bail conditions before the second half of the year next year, or directly win the lawsuit, there is hope." He said.
"theme song……"
"I know, by the way, Mr. Estefan, I'm not satisfied with the spare Spanish songs you arranged for me, Linda is not satisfied, and the music director of A+ Records, Deion Wilson, is not satisfied. I also found some Senior Latin musicians help to study and judge, those songs are hard to become popular in the world." Song Ya turned against the generals and was really dissatisfied. Estefan's songs for himself were suspected of coping with things, most of them were Latin dance music with accelerated rhythm. , filled in some lyrics to deal with football themes.
And the We Are One I produced is an apocalyptic song. According to the lyrics and MV, it is obvious that it will be selected for the World Cup in Brazil in a certain year.
"I've tried my best. The World Cup theme song doesn't need a clever arrangement." Of course, Estefan found an excuse to explain.
"I don't think so, at least ask a famous Latin artist to make an appointment? The money is no problem, I will pay enough." Song Ya said angrily.
Estefan: "The problem is your current situation. The famous people are well-informed, and I can't help it."
Song Ya: "So that's it, you are afraid that I can't handle FIFA?"
Estefan: "FIFA will not use singers who cannot leave the United States."
Song Ya: "The World Cup will be in 1998."
Estefan: "Simpson is still fighting a civil case, and it is likely to lose his fortune."
Song Ya: "Don't compare me with him, Mr. Estefan."
Estefan: "I didn't mean that, but reality is often cruel."
The two chatted back and forth in a somewhat non-speculative sense, "Anyway, we agreed to exchange theme songs last time, and the exchange should be equivalent." Song Ya's eyes turned cold.
Perhaps feeling the atmosphere here, Shakira, who was chatting with Amy, looked over.
"Shakira, go over there and talk."
Estefan sent her and Amy away, "Another way, your We Are One, I will pay for it, how about trying to come up with a price?"
"You want to do it alone? We Are One is a duet song, and you want someone else to sing with her? Who?"
"I don't have a goal yet. It's more suitable for a popular Latin male singer to sing in Spanish." Estefan said, "The premise is that you sell that song to me."
"Hehe." Song Ya sneered and shook her head.
"Most of Shakira's singers have appointments with Sony Columbia Records APLUS. I want to think about her future. Don't you think about her?" Estefan changed the angle of persuasion.
"So what about Sony Columbia Records? Can't you Latin gang protect your own people? My ex-wife is here, and it's not good."
Song Ya stared at the other party's facial expression, and finally guessed what the other party was worried about, "Don't you think...you also know that there is a meeting there today, right? You bet that Motura will return to Sony Columbia Records? So before Those rubbish songs are really perfunctory and fooling me..."
"According to the information I got, there is indeed a very high possibility, about 70% or so." Estefan did not deny it.
"He won't go back to that seat, I can bet you."
Song Ya leaned back, leaned lazily on the sofa and said: "I won. You found me the best song and continued to help me win the World Cup theme song. You won, and so did I, no, We Are One me Give it to Shakira without charging you a penny."
"Your winning percentage is not high." Estefan was moved.
"Come on, Motura didn't beat me. Taraji!"
Song Ya called the toolman Taraji in again, "Let Jimmy come over and help me draw up a contract. Where's the phone? Give it to me."
After giving the order, he turned back to Estefan and said, "But this time your credibility is gone, so we must write in black and white."
Then he put the phone on the table between the two of them, "Is Sony Columbia Records still having a meeting? We're waiting for the result here."
"Can."
The two stopped talking, and when Jimmy finished drafting a simple gambling document, Estefan signed it silently after the review.
'Drip...'
Song Ya had just signed, when the text message on the phone on the table rang, and the phone in Estefan's pocket also rang.
'The candidate for the president has been confirmed, and to everyone's surprise, it is Rick Rubin. '
He took it out and saw a line of short words.
