Chapter 209 Procrastination

'Snapped! Snapped! Snapped! '

On the weekend, Song Ya was carrying a bag of golf equipment. As soon as she entered the gymnasium, she saw Kasiti. She was waving the racket and juggling the ball alone. The white badminton was flying up and down in the air, and the sports skirt seemed to be deliberately shortened. , the beautiful hip line flashes from time to time with the movement.

"Hey, come to practice on the weekend?" Song Ya greeted and walked into the squash room beside him.

Cassidy immediately dropped the racket and followed quickly. At the door, he slowed down slightly. He saw the old Mike leaning against the door looking down at the newspaper, and ran in with a smile, "I know you will come on the weekend." She took the initiative to hug Song Ya's neck and stood on tiptoe.

She has just changed from a girl to a woman, and she is very enthusiastic. She pressed her body against Song Ya's body desperately during the long kiss, and immediately let out a groan of ecstasy when she felt her big hand touching her short skirt.

"I'm going to prepare for the game, how about you? Will the badminton team also practice extra on weekends?" Song Ya tilted her head back and looked at her meaningfully.

"I just want to be with you." She confessed emotionally.

"You are very brave, Kasiti." Song Ya put her down, opened her bag, took out a racket, and threw one to her, "Play squash with me?"

"Okay, I'm not very good at it."

"I teach you."

The two laughed and practiced like a couple who had been together for a long time, "So you want to quit the orchestra?" Song Ya asked.

"Yes, I... um... I'm afraid of causing trouble for you. You know, those girls are very observant." Cassetti said, "And I don't want to bear their sarcastic remarks anymore."

"It doesn't really matter, I'm used to it anyway."

"Uh, what are you going to tell Fergie about us?"

"Huh?" Song Ya stopped, "What about us?"

"It's about us...you, me, and us?" Kasiti pointed to Song Ya, and then to herself.

"Cassidy, aren't you?"

Song Ya made the point clear and said, "I told you that the relationship between singers is just for the outside world to see. Isn't it good for us to maintain this relationship?"

"Keep it..." Cassidy understood, she bit her lip, "Like those girls who surround rock stars?"

"yeah,

I like you Cassidy very much. "Song Ya went to hold her hand, but was avoided.

"I thought……"

"Come on, we are all eleventh graders. It's time to think like adults. When you came to me so proactively, did you come here to be my girlfriend?"

"I...I..." Kasiti shook her head, tears streaming down her cheeks, and it happened that other students were talking on the field outside, "I'm leaving, and they will gossip about me."

The girl shielded her eyes with the back of her hand and rushed out of the squash court in a daze.

Song Ya sighed. At that time, she was watching Kasiti who was drenched in the rain in the parking lot, but there happened to be an apocalypse. It was the same as the last time I got a movie clip from Xiao Lizi's future. This time it was another two-minute movie clip. It was probably a middle-aged man driving a car who approached a nice white girl who was drenched by the rain on the side of the road. Song Ya did as he did, and he really succeeded. He also completed the last time her father Vic McGee brought the stormtroopers to trouble him on the A+ record. oath made.

"You're thinking too much, Cassidy."

Forget it, he's not the kind of person who struggles, picks up the ball and the racket that Kasiti dropped, and concentrates on high-intensity practice according to the training plan given by the physical education teacher.

Cassidy really quit the orchestra later, and the intersection between the two seems to have disappeared again, and Song Ya has no time to care about it, because the deadline for Sony Columbia Records to release i hate u i love u is getting closer.

In early November, Song Ya arrived in New York with the strongest lineup he could have so far.

Sony Columbia Records headquarters, "I haven't been back here for a long time." Song Ya and others were arranged in a small conference room, and Motura naturally couldn't see them. Their opponent was only a lawyer who had never met.

"We are here this time to fulfill the notification procedure. After one working day, if Mr. APLUS and Ms. Fergie's i hate u i love u is not officially issued by your side, Goodman and Howard Law Firm will represent Mr. APLUS The two clients, Miss Fergie and Miss Fergie, initiated a related lawsuit against you."

Goodman read from the manuscript.

"OK." The lawyer agreed indifferently, got up and left, leaving everyone in the conference room.

"Now Motura has three choices. If we don't issue i hate u i love u, we will file a lawsuit immediately and we will definitely win. We have prepared the relevant evidence very well. Of course, the court battle may drag on for a while."

Back in Tribeca's study war room, Samuel said: "I hate u i love u is released in name, but it is dealt with in a negative way. We have a publishing contract, and we will also collect relevant evidence with Goodman and Harry. Mlyn tried his best to collect, this kind of clue is easy to grasp, but it will take some time, and the lawsuit will be filed later.”

"The other option is to regularly issue i hate u i love u according to the contract requirements. Then you and Fergie can cooperate. This is beneficial to you. I guess Motura will not choose this path."

Song Ya nodded after listening, "That's it, we'll see what Motura will do tomorrow."

The next day, everyone waited in the war room until 24:00, and did not receive any response from Sony Columbia Records.

"This Motura, he really would rather pay five million dollars to destroy me!" Song Ya punched the wall angrily, "I have no choice, let's go to war!"

In the morning, Goodman and others formally filed a lawsuit in the New York local court. After being accepted, the Chicago Tribune simultaneously published an exclusive news.

'Chicago Tribune, Zoe Barnes column, this morning, the attorney representing APLUS formally filed a lawsuit against Sony Columbia Records, claiming that Sony Columbia Records did not release the single i hate u i love u as required by the contract. According to insiders, APLUS has high hopes for this love song, which is signed by A+ Records and is also sung by his girlfriend Fergie. APLUS and Sony Columbia Records President Motura had a violent conflict over the release of this song. , it is speculated that this is the fuse that caused APLUS to be disheartened not long ago and issued a statement through its lawyers to withdraw from the pop music circle... This column will continue to follow the latest developments in this lawsuit. '

The incident did not spread rapidly in the media as expected. Hayden received a lot of interview invitations, but lacked powerful media, such as MTV, who had conspired with Motura to make trouble, and Song Ya did not dare Hastily accepted their exclusive interview.

However, the resolute attitude of both sides of the incident strengthened the confidence of other potential buyers. Quotations came one after another. BABYFACE called again, and he raised the quotation to five-year two plus one album. It was co-produced by A+ Records and LAFACE Records, and released by Alista Records. .

The same is true for the leading Warner Records. They lowered the original 49% stake in A+ Records to 30%.

"FXXK! First come, first served. I've said it countless times. This is not a bargain at all!"

It's not easy for Song Ya to lose her temper with them, so she can only swear at the negotiator of a small record company who is messing around, "Don't fucking bother me anymore, you are out!"

Different from the door-to-door visit, Sony Columbia Records sent a strong team of lawyers to respond to the lawsuit. In the first round of confrontation, they successfully delayed the oral and written investigation deadline to November 23rd. Goodman and Hamlin looked a little ugly when he came back.

"MJ's album Dangerous will be officially released globally on November 24th! At the same time, his single MV will be simultaneously broadcast globally on that day and will participate in the Billboard rankings! And then we will have a holiday near Thanksgiving! At that time, there will be no heat at all!"

Song Ya finally got anxious, "Didn't your mathematical model say that my offer is a win-win for the next family? Why don't they act?" He asked Samuel loudly, "Motura obviously wants to drag me to death At this pace, it will probably be 1993 or 2093 when the five million yuan is actually paid out!"

"Calm down, boy! This matter has nothing to do with the five million!"

Samuel also raised the volume, "It only takes a second to match a bid, and now all the top executives in the recording industry are absolutely paying attention to your every move, they are holding back, you have to be able to hold back, don't give the outside world a The image of a willful and impulsive African-American singer, in the darkness before dawn, you have to show maturity beyond your age!"

"APLUS, Sandy Glenn, MJ's manager." Taraji pressed on the phone's microphone and walked in.

"Hello, Mr. Glenn." Song Ya took a few deep breaths and took the phone.

"I'm continuing to pay attention to your APLUS, the court time is undecided, right?"

"Yes, the deadline for the investigation is November 23. It is estimated that it will be December when the first trial is held. According to my lawyer, Motura will still play tricks by then, appealing to cancel the trial in absentia, questioning Jurisdiction and so on, it will take several months to delay it casually."

"Motura doesn't have the energy to deal with you right now, so he's going to delay, all his attention is on MJ's new album, me and MJ too, after this busy period, maybe we will let Epic Records match your offer , MJ will go and talk to Motura in person," Sandy Glenn said.

"This news is great, when do you think you will be able to finish your work?" Song Ya is overjoyed, at least someone who knows the truth, "But I want to explain, if there are other record companies that match the quotation before Epic Records... "

"I understand, I just wanted to inform you first, which is what MJ himself meant." Sandy Glenn hung up the phone.
