Chapter 1173?
"No, it's fine..."
Sloan writhed and cried.
"What?" Song Ya raised her head and wiped her mouth.
"That's it for today." Sloan ruffled his hair, struggling to reach out to open the small wallet on the bedside table, "here, you don't need to look for it."
Song Ya's eyes instantly froze on the green twenty-dollar bill, "Really? I... don't need to be pitied."
"Who pities you! Do you want it?"
Sloan shook the banknote between his hands, and Song Ya grabbed it.
came back! are back! Dignity, self-confidence...
Sloan's evaluation in this regard was the most pertinent, and he disdained to coax himself the least. He clenched the money in his hand, cried blood in his heart, and the corners of his eyes were wet unconsciously, "But the doctor said that I only recovered 80% .” His tone was also choked up.
"Eighty percent...I feel the same, but your skills have improved a lot."
Sloan brushed back his wet blond hair, half sat up and teased, "Maybe it's because of necessity for the past year?"
"Hmph, this is a good thing. Wouldn't I be stronger when I return to my full state?"
Misfortunes and blessings depend on? It seems that the saying that people's potential is forced out is absolutely true, Song Ya couldn't help but start thinking about it.
"To be honest, the more original you are more interesting, personal feeling."
"Hey, don't believe me." Song Ya buried her head down again.
"Hey! Stop service! Immediately!"
"beg me……"
"Actually, don't worry too much. Little Bronfman is not Motura. He will not devote all his energy to his career. The rich second and third generations like to make 'decisions' while having fun. That kind of person only needs to make decisions. .”
The time has quietly come to April of 1998, and Sloan has returned to the state of a cold professional elite, drinking Siren coffee with red lips, in the president's office of Littman Media in a small town in New York State, to Song Ya said, "They are born with a lot of wealth, and they no longer need to work hard for something extra. In the current economic situation, as long as the decision-making is not too bad, it is easy to make money."
The road show of Litman Media has entered the final sprint stage,
Because the American music website was affected by the second round of advertising ban, many investors retreated, and subscriptions were somewhat cold.
Although American Music has placed very few advertisements in the affected media, it is a subdivided industry website after all, and it is much more negatively affected by this symbolic event than other comprehensive websites that are also in the second wave of bans. .
The behavior of users uploading and sharing songs, which is still in a legal gray area, has begun to be frequently mentioned by the media. Most of the news pictures use screenshots from the American music website.
Some financial studies have begun to calculate the number of visits brought to the website by this behavior, and the capital market has also re-estimated the value of the website after losing this part of the visits.
"The problem is that Jr. Bronfman is considered diligent among the rich second and third generations you mentioned, and even a little different."
Song Ya replied.
Bronfman Jr. really didn’t do too many things against himself. In addition to letting the ban pass, Universal Music also started to contact the whole music website to discuss acquisition matters. , Stay in Europe.
Quanmusic.com is the main competitor of the American music website. The founders have a romantic and pure attitude towards the website. Therefore, when the American music website was caught in the scandal of the former president DeLay and the listing was suspended, they rejected the temptation of Wall Street, but they They are all musicians, and rejecting Wall Street does not mean rejecting Universal Music.
These are two completely different things in the minds of musicians. They look down on Wall Street, but Universal Music is their own.
Moreover, as the new president, William Zhang, began to build his own record database from scratch according to Sloan's order, and burned money to catch up, the sense of crisis among the founders of the entire music website has naturally deepened. Maybe they have begun to regret that they did not Accepting Wall Street's proposal to go public, he didn't take advantage of his illness to kill him, and now even the database reservation is in danger.
"Um."
Sloan also agreed. She showed Song Ya some of the newspapers and magazines she had collected. Bronfman Jr. took a photo with the current president and his wife in Los Angeles. They were very close. The current president, who was caught in the White House intern scandal, currently needs the support and public opinion of Hollywood giants. help.
"It's a good thing he sold the American TV network cheap."
If the Bronfman family with top political and business relations still owns that TV network, Song Ya simply doesn't know how to resist the little Bronfman's turn of events, but the good thing about your son is that he always likes to hold it. He doesn't seem to have whispered to him that day Neither David Geffen nor Universal Music President Doug Morris has publicly commented on himself.
Flatterer Universal Pictures President Ron Meyer actively began to compete for the right to adapt the Cold Mountain film, and publicly ridiculed a black man for wanting to shoot a story from a southern perspective. , the sequel project of Blade Warrior, which has entered the pre-research of special effects, is also in a state of hesitation. Ron Meyer, who holds the distribution rights, deliberately hangs on and refuses to give a happy word. Headless flies.
"We don't have a lot of good news."
Sloan handed over the prospectus, "We can only add legal risks, and warn investors that after the passage of the Digital Millennium Act, it is likely that they will no longer condone this behavior of users, because by then it will no longer be in a gray area and will be illegal. .Then it means losing a lot of traffic.”
"In short, don't be suspected of false disclosure, thank you for your hard work."
Song Ya flipped through it casually, "It's hard these days, isn't it? Sloan."
"It's okay, there are a lot fewer people around at the Wall Street reception."
It is inevitable that the valuation will be tens of millions less. Sloan has taken the initiative to lower the issue price. This is all real money...
But she still shrugged calmly, "However, and the Internet industry delegation who is willing to let us join in the formulation of the Digital Millennium Act, their stock prices have been slightly affected by the advertising ban, and they are dissatisfied with Universal pushing the ban."
"Never mind their attitude, this wave is tantamount to exhausting all negatives for Hehe, and the stock price has risen even higher afterwards. What is sought after is still sought after. This is a matter of market confidence. Where can we reason? Forget it, it is better to ask for help. Please, when I go to Huaguo, I might be able to bring back a big benefit, but don't hold out too much hope."
This is the only way to go. There is also news that the new Chicago headquarters of Litman Media will be opened as scheduled, which is a little bit good. "See you in Chicago in a few days? Governor Peter Flock and the others will come to the opening ceremony. Prepare a great speech."
"."
After leaving Sloan, Song Ya was in a very good mood, walking vigorously.
", when will you come back? Our new song has been played simultaneously all over the world, and the assortment album of the two songs has also been released by Sony Columbia Records. Do you mind if I play football?"
Shakira's agent, Estefan, was grinning from ear to ear on the phone. After taking some reshoots with the stars in Europe, through the global influence, the theme song of the World Cup must be actively played and discussed by member countries.
"Really? Haha, that's good."
Isn't this the purpose of my hard work for the theme song? Although I haven’t received specific feedback yet, how can I say that it will definitely increase my global exposure, and this bonus is free. From now until the end of the World Cup in June, sports and football channels from various countries Playing your own is indispensable, and there are works in the English-speaking and Western-speaking regions.
"Well, I'll go to Bedford Hills to see little Rhaegar first, and then come back to Chicago on the same plane."
Touching the twenty knives in his pocket, he was full of pride, feeling that the world could go anywhere, Charis let go, and Mira resolutely left, and his heart became more and more uneasy.
"It's Daddy."
Mariah Carey was at home watching TV with little Rhaegar, who was almost two years old. Little Rhaegar clapped his hands, twisted his buttocks with himself on the screen, and sang.
"His voice inherited from me." Song Ya watched this warm scene with a smile after entering the door.
"No way, that would be too bad."
The ex-wife rolled her eyes, she never looked down on her singing skills.
Little Rega was a little shy of strangers, but when he saw that he was not active, he hid behind his mother.
"Look what I brought you? Rhaegar, it's early education."
Song Ya took out a gift from behind and lit it up, and her son curled his mouth, wanting to cry or not.
The family of three played happily for a while, "Sandy revealed something to me. He said that Mr. Bronfman hates you very much now." Mariah Carey asked her son with concern when she settled her son down and took him upstairs, "Yes? Because of that day in Holland?"
"Know and ask!?"
Song Ya scowled and became very cold in an instant.
She pouted, "Why? You're so narrow-minded. I told you I just wanted to help."
"Hmph!" Song Ya pushed her hard.
"Oh! You... what do you want!?" The ex-wife, who was on high heels, staggered a few steps and turned around to curse, but immediately lost her confidence when she met the man's fierce eyes, and her tone softened into a questioning one.
Song Ya continued to push.
"Woooo..." Her body also went limp, and she groaned and grabbed the door frame, "I don't!"
Song Ya put one arm around her waist, roughly dragged her into the room, and closed the door.
