Chapter 186

Pablo's phrase "speak with music" has become a joke in the cloud of lyrics that are getting hotter and hotter.

Like Vanilla Ice, Little Lowry has nothing to do but pretend to be dead after making another statement, after all, you can't drown in your saliva.

"It's a pity that Baltimore didn't leave any audiovisual evidence, otherwise it would be perfect for everyone to see that bastard's ugly appearance on stage." Nas said excitedly after getting a lot of enthusiasm for the nightclub party in Queens.

"Are you going to make this diss song your first single?" Song Ya asked him.

"It hasn't been decided yet, my team is discussing with Sony Columbia Records." Nas asked back, "What do you think?"

"I don't want to give any advice, after all, this matter is too important to you."

Song Ya didn't want to complain about it in the future. Little Lowry shrank back as expected, and his offensive will stop, not giving the other party any extra heat, but it's inconvenient to tell others about this decision.

"Okay." Nas is not like those grassroots singers born on the street. His father and himself can get good resources, and they have enough room to carefully polish their first album, "Did you receive the message from the big professor? ?”

"Received, but I don't intend to get involved in his and little Lowry..."

"aps." Al approached and quietly led Song Ya out of the party.

Now it is very difficult for little Lowry to stand up. The only thing to worry about is whether he will go crazy and retaliate. Song Ya is very careful every time he makes public appearances. He walks to the back door and waits quietly. Old Mike opens the door to signal safety before he goes out. Under the careful escort of Mawota and others, he rushed into the car in a few seconds.

"The Oprah talk show sent you a recording invitation." Eli said, who was waiting in the car.

"What? Isn't this a good thing?" Song Ya looked at Eli's expression as if he was not very excited, "When Donovan came over last time, he said that he would give me this interview opportunity for public relations. They did it, and they did it earlier. That's what it should be."

"I don't think it's necessarily a good thing, you know, that show..."

Eli seriously analyzed: "I like to be sensational, I like to stir up the real emotions of the guests, your childhood memories, family misfortunes will all be turned up by that woman, and then brought to the audience, so that they can watch you cry. "

"Wow, that doesn't sound very good." Song Ya said.

"Yes,

We've won so far that no variables are necessary. Let Oprah's show group dig deep into your past? Maybe she will find something to surprise you during the interview, she has been doing this all the time, your coffee position is not enough in front of her, and you can't guarantee that she will obey the rules obediently. "

"So you don't suggest me to participate in this show?" Song Ya hesitated, "William Morris has worked for me for a long time, you know, I am very dissatisfied with them recently, so this is also a compensation for them."

"They're a bunch of idiots, aps..." Eli said, "There's someone coming to see you tonight, and he's going to talk to you about things you don't know yet."

"who?"

"You'll know when you arrive at the hotel." Eli made a fool of himself.

"Eremov?"

It turned out that Song Ya met the down-and-out ex-Columbia Films executive and Yeremov, who was unlucky with Mira's movie, in the hotel suite.

"It's me, Mr. Aps." Yeremov greeted him enthusiastically and shook hands. He has long since disappeared from the high spirits he had before the release of Blue Coral Reef, and there was even a lot of flattering meaning in his smile.

"Eli said you wanted to talk to me about something."

"Yes."

"Sit down, have you found a new job? Have a drink? Taraji..."

Song Ya asked him and Eli to sit on the sofa, and asked Taraji to bring the wine, "Uh..." Yeremov held the wine glass, looked at Taraji, and then at the old Mike leaning against the door .

"It's all my own, it doesn't matter." Song Ya said.

"Okay, I'm Mr. Aps who is here to apply for a job with you, hehe, I..." He pointed at Eli, "Let Eli help a little bit."

Song Ya looked at him and then at Eli, "Oh, I remembered, are you all Jewish?"

"Yes, we used to have a little friendship." Yeremov did not deny it.

"Jews always help each other ah?" Song Ya laughed.

"You're thinking too much." Eli waved his hand, "As long as there is money to be made, we don't even mind selling the noose that the enemy uses to hang us."

This is true. Before World War II, many wealthy Jewish businessmen were the funders of the Nazi Party.

"So, why should I hire you? Yeremov, you are not cheap, are you?" Song Ya asked Yeremov.

"You need a professional who is proficient in public relations and publicity, a manager, and I have good contacts in Hollywood." Yeremov immediately began to brag, "I have successfully released..."

"Wait..." Song Ya raised his hand to stop, "Your judgment on returning to the blue coral reef is very bad, and don't think I don't know that you participated in the discrediting of Mira in the second half of the movie. "

"Uh... At that time, I was about to collapse, and I went to the doctor in an emergency. I admit, I have lost my sense of audience preferences. I was too addicted to the 1970s and 1980s... But this has nothing to do with my public relations and publicity. Posting ability has nothing to do, I found that you, aps, your fan organization is still in disarray, and besides Eli, you don’t have any professional public relations talents around you.”

"Although I signed a public relations contract with you, I need someone on your side to cooperate with me. You can't discuss everything with me personally like now, and I have another person in Chicago. There are a lot of campaign affairs, and I can't always be by your side." Eli was assisting.

"First of all, I don't need a manager." Song Ya is full of energy, and she doesn't want to find a manager who will charge a percentage for herself. "Secondly, I have an assistant, Taraji. She is very smart and is learning management step by step. My fan organization, she handles all the letters very well."

"What about Hollywood? Are you interested in Hollywood? I know you once made a small investment in Hollywood, but you were flattened there." Yeremov didn't know where Song Ya's investment in Little Plum's film failed, " As a future A-list star, you have to have someone who can speak to you in Hollywood and the Los Angeles media."

"You can talk?" Song Ya was not very polite to him, "You are a loser, and you were kicked out by Columbia Pictures."

"Of course, the failure of a movie with a cost of tens of millions can't shake me. I was kicked out because of a combination of factors." Yeremov persisted, "Let me tell you something you don't know, Eli told me, William Morris seems to be hiding something from you, and I know all about that."

"explain."

"They didn't tell you that AA played an important role in discrediting you and Mira, did they?" Yeremov asked.

"Really not." Song Ya became interested, "So what if you tell me? Doesn't this make me hate their opponent even more?"

"Business, it's all business. They conceal the destructive power of aa, so why not cover up their incompetence? They know that you are very dissatisfied with them, and they are very afraid that you will switch to aa in a fit of anger."

Song Ya thought about it, "So? Now everything is over, I saved myself, and I have no plans to switch to another agency for the time being. Hayden is not smart, but he is loyal enough."

"One more thing, you have a hidden crisis in your current people, haven't you discovered it?" Yeremov still didn't give up: "Your attack on this subsidiary company can please the vast majority of Americans, but don't forget Yes, Sony Columbia Pictures is controlled by Benzi Capital.”

"Benzi can't control the record company, Motura is in charge of everything, and they can't even control Columbia Pictures." It's not that Song Ya hasn't considered this aspect, but after the entry of Benzi Capital, they encountered very strong resistance, and they couldn't intervene in the specific operation .

"Do you really think that Motura can ignore the feelings of the management at all?" Yeremov smiled, "Don't take the book seriously, yes, they have suffered a lot at Columbia Pictures, but that's just the tuition they paid! They Two different management methods have been adopted for the two companies. The record company has let Motura monopolize the power. So far, the effect is good. Motura is very happy, won J, and won Maria Kelly, the new diva..."

"The film company, they set up two co-chairmen, and then installed some bookish executives to check each other. Now it seems that the effect is not good, but it is just a labor pain. Their main goal is not movies and records. It's the dispute over the electronic product standards behind it. Whichever standard is used for movies and music products, the winner takes all. Electronic products are the key to their interests behind the scenes. They are afraid of losing some money in the entertainment industry. What!"

"Uh, wait, you are very optimistic about the book?" Song Ya interrupted him.

"Of course, I belonged to the Benzi school in Columbia Pictures, so I was kicked out by the American native school because of the failure of a movie worth tens of millions."

Yeremov made no secret of his identity as a real traitor, "They are on the right path and will become stronger and stronger. You need someone like me who has a good relationship with the book by your side. You have to mend the relationship with Sony." Relationship, I have a good relationship with aa, you know, many acquisitions in this book are made by Ovitz of aa. Believe me, their power is very strong. Take Sony Columbia Records as an example, the distribution business Motura It’s up to you, but copyright management? There’s also Sony Music Copyright Company, which owns 50% of the copyright of all your songs released by Columbia Music, and they also own the track management rights. You can’t compete with them. It's too noisy."

"I heard that their economy is not very good recently." Song Ya will not be intimidated by him.

"It is true that the sharp rise in the exchange rate of the currency has caused great harm to their economy, and many of the rich people's investments in the United States have also fallen into the pit, but when the currency is overvalued, they can make a lot of money. Chile's copper, Brazil's copper Taking advantage of this opportunity, they bought a lot of good things, which will be the blood of the industry in the next few decades."
