Chapter 582 Black Santa Claus

Thinking about it afterwards, Song Ya's spine felt a little chilly, what would have happened if he had agreed casually? That was definitely the probing words of the two Elephant Party senators. They deliberately took advantage of the small talk to make a surprise attack when they relaxed their emotions. Civilian weapons are imported to speak for outsiders.

It doesn’t matter that the sale of Bahn’s chemical equipment and textile import quotas are related to his own interests. If he also expresses his stance towards China on the issue of arms imports, which is completely out of bounds, then it is very likely that the senators who are always tense to find out their positions, and Conservatives with close ties to powerful departments are very cruel to Mi Jian.

"The quota issue has been settled, and the negotiations at the beginning of next year will probably bring room for an increase of 3.0% in Huaguo's textile quota."

Scott, the president of A+ Apparel, called, "It's better than we expected."

He only set the target at 2%, Song Ya deliberately mentioned 5/8, and he is very satisfied with this result.

"How is the business going this year?"

The time has come to the end of October in 1994, and he is about to start summarizing this year's business activities.

"Very good. Our long-sleeved T-shirts have sold out several times, and the sales of short-sleeved T-shirts have also doubled. There are also luminous belts. The sales volume is not high, but the profit is good." Scout said excitedly, "We The autumn and winter clothing product line has been withdrawn, and the focus is on T-shirts, the production and marketing costs are well controlled, and the report at the end of the year will be very beautiful, boss.”

"very good."

He didn't know whether the subtle expressions on his face had deceived the two senators, but judging from the results, they should have let go of their worries, otherwise they would not refuse the lobbying company's interest transfer, especially McKen, who just came from A few years out of a similar trouble, very cautious.

Praise for her improvisation, Song Ya hangs up the phone with satisfaction, the clothing business is in full swing, and the film and record business is also extremely successful. Dancing My Life has just been withdrawn from Beimi Cinemas, with a box office of 65 million dollars and overseas box office. This is also the number. The global box office totaled 130 million. The soundtrack of the film has not released a single, and it has sold more than 4 million copies in three months since its launch. BeWhatYouWannaBe has won the top spot for four weeks, and SayGoodbye, which followed up the chart, has won the top spot for one week. It is waiting for the settlement with Universal and Sony Columbia Records at the end of the year.

The fly in the ointment is the first album released for William Adams. The quality of the record is obviously good, but the market just doesn’t buy it. The gangster funk music that doesn’t have a gangster spirit hasn’t even made a splash. Even with the full support of the Chicago Conference, it can’t Half a million copies were sold.

A+ Records and Sony Columbia Records concluded in hindsight that they still lack claw ears and hit singles, even if the overall level is good.

A good example is the first album of Mariah Carey’s backing vocalist Trey Laurenz. It has a strong production lineup, DIVA’s own vocals, a unified style, and a high level. Any desire to buy.

"The announcement of Common's album in November must be closely watched, and no mistakes can be made. I don't want the failure of William Adams to repeat itself."

He complained to Linda beside him, "He cost me a million signing fees."

"I see."

Linda is a little more confident about Common's new album, "His new songs can at least be topical."

"Yeah, but that's what worries me too."

As one of the few jazz rappers, Common has been dormant since he joined A+ Records in early 1993 and has been carefully polishing his new album. In this new song, he continues his consistent stance, criticizing gangster rap, especially West Coast Death Row Records. Gangsta rap, and after Su Ge Knight and Puff Daddy turned their faces at the end of April, the mutual diss in the gangster rap circles of the east and west coasts has reached the stage of all-out war. Singers who scolded together,

One can imagine how big the reaction will be.

There is a topic of discussion, but the pressure from all aspects will suddenly increase. Su Ge Knight of Death Row Records is not afraid of himself, but is afraid of the street fans who gangster rap.

"Immediately add security personnel to Common after the song is released, and pay more attention when leaving Chicago for publicity release." He told Linda: "What should be said and what should not be said, where to say what to say..."

"I'll tell Common that Dion Wilson and Al will accompany him on the press release." Linda nodded, "What about you? Will you publicly support him?"

"Our singers include Fergie who sings hip-hop, William Adams who sings gangster funk, and Common who sings gangster gangster rap. I'm not very good at expressing my opinion on this aspect, but I can properly support Common himself." Song Ya said : "I said hello to Daniel, and try to downplay the background of Common's A+ record signing artist when it is released."

"OK."

Linda wrote down one by one, "And..."

"Honey!" At this time, Mariah Carey, dressed like a red envelope, ran in excitedly from outside with her stylist, "Quick! Change your clothes, it's your turn to play."

"Alright alright."

Reluctantly, he began to accept the Santa suit, leather boots and pointed little red hat from the stylist. He was also dressed in red, and he had to put on all of them.

It's snowing in Chicago, and Mariah Carey is here to shoot the music video for her Christmas album.

"Wait a minute." The makeup artist put on powder on his face. Since Mariah Carey insisted that he play Santa Claus in the MV, Sony Columbia Records was afraid that a black Santa Claus would have a negative impact on the sales of the album, so they asked the makeup artist Covered his complexion with a tan like a white man's tan.

"Actually, you don't need to be so troublesome, haven't you heard? According to the latest research results, Jesus himself has a very dark complexion, so Santa Claus with a black spot is also reasonable, right?" Song Ya joked.

"Hehe..." The white makeup artist didn't bother and continued working.

"That's right." Linda agreed very much, "Why can't we play white fairy tale characters? In the future, not only Black God, Black Pharaoh, Black Santa Claus, but also Snow White, Cinderella, and Mermaid can also use black actors."

"Uh..." Song Yanao took a look at the picture, wiped off his sweat and nodded, "That's right."

After putting on his clothes and hat, and neatly trimming his white beard and eyebrows, he and Mariah Carey walked out of the dressing room with two red envelopes. The camera crew outside was already waiting.

Idon't want a lot for Christmas

I don't care about presents

Underneath the Christmas tree

"Every department is ready, start shooting!"

On the edge of the snow-capped forest, the two happily rushed into the snowy Chicago, which was decorated with Christmas trees and colored light bulbs, running and fighting in front of the camera to their heart's content.

Both the album and the MV were planned very hastily without a specific script. Mariah Carey took the snow with both hands and 'splashed' it on Song Ya's face, so he fought back.

I just want you form your own

All I want for Christmas

Isyou...

"Pay attention to the lip-synch, Miss Kelly." The director reminded her who was enjoying herself.

The accompaniment of AllIWantForChristmasIsYou floated on the set, and she was infected by the festive atmosphere of the set, singing and dancing around Song Ya like a heifer, feeling very happy.

"Hold her up, hold her up APLUS!"

Song Ya skillfully hugged his fiancée with a princess hug.

Um? Why is it getting heavier? Must be too heavy for a Christmas costume, must be...

All the lights are shinning

So brightly everywhere

And the sound of children's

Laughterfillstair

And everyone is issuing

I hearthose sleigh bells ringing

Santawon'-won't you please bring my

The two laughed like children.
