Chapter 166: The Night Before
No Vaseline uses the form of underground CDs (disc records that are not officially released), and distributes them completely through the DJ network. This has become a good opportunity for those small and medium-sized DJs to show off their communication skills. Brag to your audience: "Hey, I got you guys a cool thing today."
This led to shortly after No Vaseline was released, all radio stations concerned with gangster rap music in the whole meter were talking about it. DJs who couldn’t get No Vaseline discs would be embarrassed, so they had to borrow them everywhere.
Atlantic Records sent out a lot of promotional releases and media promotions for "I, Little Lowry", but all of them had little effect. The crash was too serious, and he was completely submerged in this wave of media carnival. Because of the lyrics, his The single failed to make it to TV and the mainstream media, so the situation was not optimistic.
This is of course what Song Ya is happy to see, but it is a pity that in Chicago and the surrounding areas where he has the strongest control, the DJs will give Little Lowry and GD face and give them a proper push.
"I didn't say, Escouber is a villain, pure, full of lies, I don't believe a word he said... Wait, I got the latest news! Big E told reporters that he will deal with this, will deal with it What does this... mean? He didn't intend to send a song DISS back, but he wanted to give Escoub something ruthless? Cool! It's time to deal with Escoub, he M-FXXK is a scourge ..."
N.W.A diehard Big A is still holding his ground, attacking Escube frantically, "Okay, I'm a little tired, I've been broadcasting for more than ten hours since this happened, sorry, let me take a break, I really so pissed off. play y'all some song one of my buddies lowry Jr. has a new single out too thrift store remember? he's one of us in chicago this song is pretty cool straight gangsta Rap style, you guys will like it..."
The music starts and Taraji turns off the radio.
"I can let the DJs push something, but I can't make them not push anything." Song Ya smiled wryly.
"The former is as long as he has the money and the way, while the latter needs real power, strength, power." Hayden said.
"indeed so."
Song Ya obviously does not have this kind of power now, "What about the silencer? Did you give him the money?" He asked Taraji.
"The money is given." Taraji performed a body language, staring straight ahead in a daze, beating his chest, and giving a thumbs up...
"Haha, it's still the style of 'silencer', you've learned it pretty well." Song Ya understood, "It seems that he's doing well in there."
Little Lowry still has nothing to say on this point,
It's very righteous, he spent a lot of money to get the lawyer to apply to transfer the "Silencer" to a prison where the New York gangs can't reach, this is very necessary, otherwise the "Silencer" will not have a good life in prison, not to mention other dangers, The sentence of fighting and fighting in it can easily change from one year to two years, and from two years to five years...
"Yeah...ahem." Taraji lowered his voice as much as possible, learning to speak through a silencer, "Yeah..."
"That's it!" This time Hayden also followed Song Ya and laughed.
The old Mike drove very steadily, and the group returned to their Hayden Park home. The tailor had already delivered the new dress, which will be used at the premiere of Mira's Return to the Blue Lagoon on August 1st.
"Empire Magazine: A remake of a classic film, still handsome and beautiful, still beautiful island style, the heroine Milla Jovovich has become a popular lover with a song to De Klerk, the world's expectations for her have already Not just Brooke Shields, but Madonna. Finally, there is a film that can make the audience appreciate her youth and beauty. Except for Condor and Terminator 2, other movies released next week seem to pose no threat to it. The weekly box office is predicted to be 800 to 10 million dollars, ranking third."
"Hollywood Report: The heroine is Milla Jovovich, and the PG-13 rating (free viewing for over 13 years old, accompanied by parents for viewing under 13 years old) seems to suggest that this island youth film has something to watch. The first week There are 1,280 movie theaters, which is slightly different from the more than 1,300 theaters that the media got at the beginning, but it is understandable that the unexpected explosion of the boy on the block, who is also Columbia Pictures, has affected his family’s follow-up movie schedule. The only thing that is The question is the 21-year-old male protagonist Brian Krauss, isn't his age a little too big?"
"Wall Street Journal: Columbia Pictures has been picking up a bit recently. It seems that they have finally come out of the chaos after the acquisition of the book. Following the classic case of the boy on the block, the production cost is only 11 million and has returned to blue. Color Coral Reef is about to be released again, they made a good deal, signed the heroine Milla Jovovich who was just a model when she was just a model, and by the eve of the film's release, the hairy immigrant girl had regained her fashion The love of the world, the career of a singer is also very smooth."
"Louis reports: South Pacific, young widow, young man and widow, if you want to know the plot, rent Coral Island of Youth! Columbia Pictures can't make money, I really don't understand the point of remaking a film that is only ten years ago ? Both are fifteen years old, who looks better, Milla Jovovich or Brooke Shields? People with normal aesthetics have the answer in their hearts."
While Song Ya was trying on the dress, Taraji read all the reports about Mira's new movie in entertainment magazines for him.
"What the hell is Louise reporting?" Song Ya frowned, "Gossip tabloid?"
"Probably." Taraji shook the colorful newspaper, the cheap paper betrayed its style.
"Next time, don't read the gossip tabloids, it will affect your mood."
Song Ya adjusted the bow tie slightly in front of the mirror, "No, don't buy it at all, and don't contribute a single sales volume to them."
On July 31, Song Ya arrived in Los Angeles. He first participated in a local African Women's Day charity event. Mira was also there, but the two had no interaction except for eye contact. Mira was in the middle of a high-intensity publicity exposure Under the circumstances, there must be no accidents at this time.
The small-scale riots in Los Angeles have never stopped, and all the sources point to the movie "Neighborhood Boys". On the one hand, it shows the reality of the black community naked in front of the black people at the bottom, and reminds them of the Rodney King case not long ago. He filed a case with the Silla shopkeeper, and then took to the streets to make trouble again. On the other hand, the vendetta between the two gangs in the film clearly hints at the Lame Gang and the Blood Gang. Cooper's character's passionate revenge at the end aroused the "bloodiness" and old and new enmity between the two gangs. , A series of conflicts and shootings broke out in the black district.
These bloody incidents had no impact on the film, and Columbia Pictures hardly lowered the film schedule, while the 23-year-old rookie director John Singleton became famous, and countless film invitations poured in. There were even rumors that he would be nominated for an Oscar for this film.
"You are not in a good condition during the day, are you too tired?"
Back at the hotel, Song Ya called her.
"I'm under a lot of pressure..." Mira said, "I haven't slept well for a few days. As soon as I touch the pillow, I hear countless people laughing at me..."
"It's no big deal, it's just a movie with an investment of 10 million yuan." Song Ya persuaded, leaning against the floor-to-ceiling windows of the hotel, overlooking the beautiful night view of Los Angeles.
"That's all?"
Mira sighed, "I still like to sing. I was never so nervous before the premiere of To de Klerk."
Song Ya smiled, "People don't necessarily know what they really like. Maybe you like movies more when it comes to music. Otherwise, why are you more nervous now than when you released the single?"
"Maybe."
Mira was silent for a while, "I miss you."
"Didn't you just see it during the day?"
"I want you to come here now and appear before me."
"Stop making trouble, there are a bunch of reporters and paparazzi in front of your house."
"Hmph, don't love me, don't obey me."
"..."
The two were chatting casually, "Mira, it's time to go to bed, do you want some vodka?" Mrs. Jovovich's voice came into the microphone.
