Chapter 1206: Earlier Than Expected

All front-line endorsement negotiations are progressing earlier than planned, mainly because the French are too annoying. They came to support your family in the World Cup, but unexpectedly they were caught by the host media? How impatient are you with Americans?

Then Song Ya became popular all over the world at an extremely fast speed. Neither he nor the brokerage company William Morris wanted to be sidelined by any more incidents, and first-line brands were also happy to win this genuine global superstar earlier.

"Hahaha, I am a loyal user of your family."

In the French city of Nantes on the 25th, Song Ya reached an endorsement agreement with Mercedes-Benz again, and the 'effort' to let the Mercedes-Benz logo appear with her for many years finally paid off, and a contract was negotiated in early July.

"Yes, we have noticed you Mr. APLUS for a long time. In the Bahn case, the row of Mercedes-Benz cars parked outside the court by you and the legal team left a deep impression on the company's executives and investors."

The people from Mercedes-Benz held his hand and complimented him, the world's richest man, the youngest self-made billionaire, the richest African-American, and also of Chinese descent, it is impossible for Mercedes-Benz to win the endorsement of the other party. The downgrade of the brand is also conducive to opening up the international market.

"Haha, my car is also your bulletproof model..."

"Yes, we noticed that too."

"Will you customize a new bulletproof car for me in the future?"

"Of course, we can talk about it in detail when you visit our design headquarters next month."

"OK!"

"Uh, also, our merger with Chrysler has encountered some resistance from your government, can you help us publicize your friend?" The people from Mercedes-Benz glanced at Tom Ford and others who were busy around the big star. , whispering in a low voice.

"Tens of billions of mergers and acquisitions... okay, I will try my best to help, and we will be a family in the future, haha, I am tired of logging!"

Song Ya, who has received a high endorsement fee, is easy to speak.

"Hayden, deliver it for me."

He can't move, and now he is standing on a small table to take various measurements from Gucci tailors.

"A Mercedes-Benz goes just fine with our suits."

Tom Ford, with a tape measure hanging around his neck, changed into a suit from the Gucci Spring Show in 1998 while talking and laughing, "Try it."

This year's men's suits of his family are mainly black, with close-fitting Italian tailoring, and Tom Ford's strong waist design. Song Ya put it on, and the effect was perfect, "This year's feature ah?"

He tidied up the slightly exaggerated patchwork windbreaker collar, using a different black color from the suit fabric, bigger and darker, brighter and more crisp, shining brightly under the light, "Very good."

"Pants are fine too."

It's also the show style. His trousers this year are also black, but they are looser than normal suit trousers. They have wide legs and even have a touch of flared trousers from the 1980s. The silk fabric has no creases at all.

It's smooth all the way down from the waist and should be able to be blown by the breeze.

"Uh... isn't it a little girly?" Song Ya hesitated in the mirror.

"Don't you like it?" asked Tom Ford.

"It's okay to wear performance clothes occasionally...Emmm, just wear this when performing in the afternoon." Song Ya and Shakira are going to perform in the last group match of the US team in the afternoon. Against Serbia, the US is threatening a military strike nation.

"We also have designs with narrow legs."

"Then change it."

It's more normal to replace it with one. It may be his style to try to fit as close as possible. There are no major problems except that it is a little tight.

"We also have a double-breasted suit, which is also very suitable for you."

"OK."

The people of Gucci continue to work around him. The first-line Italian fashion team, top designers are waiting for me alone, as well as German cars and Swiss watches. Is this a small blessing? Song Yamei thought to herself, let them play around with them.

"Mr. APLUS's figure, wow, it's top-notch to be a male model..." the tailor complimented in English with an Italian accent.

"hey-hey……"

"Hahaha!" At this time, Shakira carried some clothes and walked in with Gloria and Estefan laughing, "Put them on and show us..." she urged.

"What?"

It seemed to be a short-sleeved T-shirt. Song Ya took off the rest and put it on her head. It didn't feel right after she put it on. It was too light, like a thin layer of black and gray gauze. Looking down, okay, and Women's clothing can be seen through at a glance, and wearing it is equivalent to not wearing it.

"Very annoying, hahaha!"

Shakira and Gloria laughed wildly, "And this..." She hooked another pair of underwear with her fingers.

It's still a hot style, almost catching up with the women's T-shaped style. It's fuchsia and inlaid with reflective materials. The BlingBling is extremely delicate.

"What the hell... stop messing around."

Song Ya doesn't want to be seen wearing this kind of clothes, the persona will collapse, and in private... huh? What are you thinking? "Don't wear it, don't wear it!"

"This is designed by Mr. Tom Ford this year." Shakira said.

"Well, I'm not saying it's not pretty..."

So when I set off to the stadium in the afternoon, Song Ya was dressed in a fashionable and steady Gucci black.

Short-sleeved T-shirts, suits, trousers, leather shoes...all belong to him. Of course, the T-shirts are normal styles that are opaque, and Tom Ford insisted on reducing the cumbersome big gold chain bracelet to one. The spring movement on the wrist The watch was replaced by the San Marco Minute Repeater series, which is also owned by Athens.

He is a good clothes shelf, and now the French fashion circle should not be able to find fault. Gucci and William Morris will also strengthen public relations. It should probably be "Save the taste of APLUS in one fell swoop, after Tom Ford's personal transformation, he will change his clothes in seconds." It doesn't matter if you write a draft like "Yi Daren".

In short, endorsement takes money, but it also has to fulfill many obligations, at least you can't wear it in public in the future.

As for A+T-shirts... he now feels that he has entered a bottleneck period. As a design, it is not the cheapest low-end brand. If he wants to make a difference, he will expand in a large area. It is not a problem to shrink in some Wal-Mart. However, the investment in an expandable exhibition store is astronomical, and he dare not rush in. The weak product line cannot support a self-owned store, and the plan of franchising chains cannot be implemented.

Anyway, I’m still making money, so don’t rush it, and I’ll talk about it later if I understand more about it, and I can’t always wear a T-shirt to endorse and can’t do anything. Gucci is undoubtedly more suitable for me now, so I changed decisively.

However, the U.S. team is really stretching their hips this year, and lost to Serbia 0-1. They lost all three games in the group stage, and they are likely to win the last place among the 32 participating teams...

The whistle sounded at the end of the 90th minute, and Song Ya, who had already completed the performance task and stayed at the scene with Shakira to cheer, looked at the players of the US team who left the field dejectedly, and suddenly couldn't help but want to laugh. He hurriedly covered his face with his hands, He shook his head 'painfully' while laughing, as if he couldn't accept the result.

"Don't be sad, come back in four years."

Shakira comforted gently beside her.

"Yeah!" Song Ya agreed, rubbing her face with her hands.

It's a pity that the two covered their faces at the same time the next day. Colombia also fell into the hands of England and failed to qualify for the group stage just like the United States.

"It's okay. Without the home team, we can relax a little bit. We don't have to suffer in the stands anymore. We will disappear after the performance."

Shakira was really sad, this time it was Song Ya's turn to comfort her.

"APLUS, something serious happened."

Hayden, who came to pick him up, reported in a panic, "When you were at the stadium, Polygram suddenly announced the suspension of stock trading on the London Stock Exchange, and the press conference is already underway."

"Not so fast, is it?"

The tens of billions of mergers and acquisitions... Could it be that Warner has caught up from behind? Then it's not so fast, is it?

The hotel was nearby, and the group hurried back. Linda was already paying attention to relevant news in the suite.

It is impossible for PolyGram's London press conference to be broadcast live. At present, only the latest news from the on-site reporters is released through the media.

"Is it about the M&A case?" Song Ya asked Linda.

"It should be. People from Universal are here, and Mr. Bronfman Jr. is also there." Linda replied, she only knew so much for the time being.

That's really possible...

Song Ya called in the accompanying announcement staff from Universal Music, "Do you know anything?"

"No, we don't know anything about Mr. APLUS."

Universal will not use any means to expressly suppress itself. These middle-level publicity personnel still follow what they should do, and the global distribution channels are generally the same. President Doug Morris is stuck in the way of controlling resource investment, but the company’s operations The inertia is still there, and the middle and lower-level migrant workers don't need to mix in. They can continue to work normally and do what they should do.

"Don't be so nervous Linda, this has little to do with us."

Song Ya noticed that Linda folded her hands on her chest nervously, staring at the TV without moving, letting Hayden keep changing channels, looking for a few words in the news.

"It's not the same as we were with Mo..." Linda was about to say about Motura, and noticed the man in the suite corrected, "It's not the same situation you were in at Sony Columbia Records."

She knew little Bronfman's hostility towards her. If Universal really won Polygram, then Bronfman would have the world's largest music group in his hands, plus Universal Pictures, Seagram Wine, Other media clutter...the popularity of the Bronfmans in the Jewish community.

After today, the rich third generation will be stronger, much stronger, and the countdown to the time until he turns his attention back to internal affairs is even tighter.

"Maybe...well, you guys go out for a while."

Song Ya drove away irrelevant personnel such as Universal, "Honey, we have to do something, you..."

"Yes." Shakira obediently went to do her own thing.

"Sloan, have you heard anything? No?"

"Mr. Geffen, Polygram's London press conference today..."

Song Ya called back to ask people, and refreshed the YAHOO page at the same time. His family's news section was co-contributed by Reuters, and it should be one of the media that can get the news and release it the fastest.

‘News, Seagram Global Group’s acquisition of PolyGram, the dust has settled! '

Click, as the page was refreshed again, a short message came into view, and Song Ya's heart... can't be said to sink, but there is indeed some expectation, some wish, knowing that the possibility of arrival is very high But still have a sense of fluke.

"I thought my troubles were very effective, and I could toss for a long time. Warner just joined the war again, at least during the World Cup, right? I didn't expect..."

He frowned and clicked on the text, and said the same meaning as the title, "Linda, Hayden!" He greeted the two men who were still staring at the TV, "Look here."

"Didn't Universal buy Polygram?" Linda asked.

"Since Bronfman Jr. did not allow Polygram to spin off companies such as Polygram Films in advance, it must be an overall acquisition."

Hayden's analysis: "It's not common to say that the Seagram Global Group should be the main body of the acquisition. It seems that the Bronfman family has gone all out this time."

"Mr. David Geffen." David Geffen called back.

"APLUS, do you have any latest news?" David Geffen asked.

"you are not……"

This guy even came to ask himself, and he didn't know if he was pretending, "I guess I'll be the last one to know about this, isn't it? Mr. Geffen."

David Geffen cursed on the other end of the phone and hung up, as if he really didn't know.

"New news!"

Hayden sent out a new text message, "Super Century Mergers and Acquisitions!" Seagram Global Group acquires Polygram for $11.8 billion! '

Song Ya's eyelids twitched when he saw this number, so ruthless! PolyGram’s listed companies in London do not include all of its subsidiaries, but they must be considered as the main company, with a market value of just over 7 billion, 8 billion knives? He calculated in his mind, adding up the other assets of Polygram Films, at most he could barely touch the 10 billion mark, and he couldn't figure out the number 118.

And Polygram itself is still a master of blowing bubbles, maybe there are other transactions.

Of course, the news is definitely inaccurate now. He clicked on the text, and Reuters didn’t provide text, but only a picture, which was gradually refreshed from top to bottom under the hotel’s slow internet speed.

Yes, the little Bronfman wearing gold-rimmed glasses in the picture is handsome, and is smugly toasting with other people. I don't know whether it is because of drunkenness or excitement, and his face is very obvious.
