Chapter 837

The three-threat stance is ready, and it's time to strike the first punch, in New York, in Manhattan.

The application for the protest route has been submitted to the city government. The more people who organize this kind of 'large event', the better. It needs to be contacted in advance. The time cannot be changed. It will be just after Christmas and before New Year's.

At that time, Song Ya will be busy with the last tour in the south and will not attend in person. In fact, until now, he has not publicly attacked Motura, in order to leave some room for mutual concessions with Sony.

"It premiered on the night of the 21st, and I changed the premiere to New York." Mariah Carey called, "I think there should be more supporters in my hometown."

"Okay, I'll be there." Song Ya, who was busy, agreed casually.

"Well." She didn't hang up the phone immediately.

"What about 20th Century Fox's film schedule?" It seems that the spirit is a little low? Song Ya could imagine her pouting arrogantly on the other end of the phone, so she asked again.

"About 800." She replied.

"I see."

With Whitney Houston's current momentum in the film industry, a thousand theaters are planning to schedule films. After Christmas, there will be New Year's. The competition is second only to summer. The intensity is very high, and there will be more than a dozen films in succession Ten large and small movies, eight hundred films in the first week are not bad for Xingmeng's own quality, but she should not be able to accept it with her heart.

"I can help to contact about thirty-five theaters here, let your people contact Yeremov, and I will give him a call." This is the theater network accumulated all the way from my life, Counting my greatest strength in the field of distribution, it consists of theaters in some Chinese-inhabited areas of Quanmi and a small number of black theaters in Chicago's South City. They are relatively dilapidated and have backward equipment.

"Hmph, thanks."

"Sure, don't tire yourself and your children too much."

Song Ya hung up the phone, "You can wear t-shirts to protest against Sony, but don't target Sony with slogans, leader speeches, and interviews, and refuse to let those white organizations that target books mix in the team, just focus on anti-discrimination. My The target has always been Motura." He confessed to Pierre Sutton beside him.

"When the protest team appears downstairs in the Sony Building, they and the white media can't be ostriches."

Pierre Sutton revised the plan according to the chairman's order, "Do you think they will continue like this?"

"who knows,

Anyway, just do our job well, and let me know in advance if there is any trouble. " Song Ya replied.

"Oh, by the way, this is Dr. Chen, Morning Star, Linda and the governor's wife's rectification plan for the inner city broadcasting company next year?"

Pierre Sutton pushed a document over, "The shares of these radio stations and this TV station cannot be moved, and the dismissal plan of some personnel also needs to be considered again."

Song Ya glanced at him, feeling that he was taking the opportunity to bargain with herself, "Why?"

"You know, my father, me, and Mr. Dingkins have expressed our attitude long ago. Some operations that don't make money, or don't seem to make money, have their own reasons for being inhumane. For example, these people... "

He pointed to the roster, "Although it doesn't seem to work normally, your protests this time can't be played without them. You should be able to understand the hidden logic here, right aplus? We don't need to run out of these activists and turn around and fire." If you lose them, the consequences will be huge.”

Song Ya lay back, leaned on the boss chair and looked at Linda and Dr. Chen next to her.

Dr. Chen was not very involved in his own war, so it was difficult to express his opinion. Linda had no choice but to help the boss and complain to Pierre: "This has already been decided, hasn't it? As long as it is approved by the board of directors."

"But who knows that it will suddenly fall into this kind of thing at the end of the year?" Pierre Sutton asked, "Our inner city broadcasting company needs to burst out with greater strength, so we can't weaken ourselves like this."

"It will be of great benefit to the financial situation next year, you are the general manager." Linda retorted.

"Isn't our priority now helping Aplus win this war with Sony?"

Pierre said, "I have said long ago that the existence of this company is not limited to making money. It is not even a private company in the strict sense. Its influence has been perfectly verified in this incident. I think aplus also agrees with me."

"Okay, let me think about it."

Song Ya stopped his subordinates from continuing to quarrel, carefully studied the document under their gaze, and then decisively picked up a pen to sign the document, "I can give you another year for these companies and individuals, Pierre. "

"Thank you, aplus." Pierre happily left with the file in his arms.

"In this case, there will be a loss of two to three million yuan next year that cannot be suppressed." Dr. Chen did a little mental calculation.

"I need these money-losing but useful companies and individuals now." Song Ya replied.

"It's worth it, boss." Linda actually agreed with Pierre. After Dr. Chen left, "These African-American media and individuals need money to maintain their existence. What they do does not make money but is meaningful."

"Um."

Song Ya already had a thorough understanding of their mentality, "In short, let the wind out first, and Sony don't want to pretend to be dead again."

Sony did not pretend to be dead anymore. After getting the news of the protests, Song Ya did not wait for any signal of peace talks, but waited for the news from William Morris.

"The New York Times reporter who wrote a special report on Sinaloa, the report that was suppressed by us through some means, people and related materials have been transferred to cbs, if this matter is operated by Howard Stringer's nod , I think it will be very difficult for us to stop cbs from publishing this report."

Donovan came to New York in person, "The New York Times did not break the promise, but... I think they deliberately let me get this news in advance to send you some signals."

"It's a very clear signal, so I should take the initiative to bow to Sony now, right?" Song Ya smiled flatly, "No, never."

"not only that."

Ms. Sloan is also there, "The New York City Police Commissioner told me that the media has asked for the full text of the wiretapping case. Due to privacy, the police department will not provide it. But he warned not to expect too much from the integrity of some police department employees. , Similar leak cases emerge in endlessly, as long as the other party can afford enough.”

"Wow, both ways." Song Ya applauded.

"If all the recordings are leaked, your wife's reaction when she said discriminatory words to Motura is very problematic. Given that she is of African descent...she should protest on the spot, but she didn't." Linda said worriedly : "If these things are hyped up, then she is in the black group... She and boyz ii man's one sweet day is winning the b list consecutively, and her Star Dream Tears is released on Christmas, with veteran black singer Patti Labelle playing her mother , because the professional film critics are not very optimistic, just stepped up the promotion in the black area."

"Um……"

Song Ya scratched her head, "Get ready to ask a reporter, then I will personally stand up to protest against Motura's discrimination before this incident breaks out, and force all black singers under Sony Columbia Records to stand in line. I."

"This can't stop the two moves they are preparing. The influence of cbs is not comparable to media such as the inner city broadcasting company." Linda warned.

"At that time, they will overwhelm the sky as soon as they make a move, and they will destroy you, and your wife will follow you." Ms. Sloan also said.

"Leave that aside, what happened to the Apollo Theater?" Song Ya asked Sloan.

"We blocked the relevant proposals in the New York City Council, and the victory is of course temporary." Sloan replied: "This will be a protracted struggle. At present, the Donkey Party still has an advantage in New York, although the mayor belongs to the Elephant Party. "

"Well done, Sloan, you go to Washington to find Rangel and let the black party group present the prepared proposal in the Federal House of Representatives. He knows what the proposal is." Song Ya ordered.

"What proposal?" Sloan asked.

"About raising tariffs on notebook electronic products, this time we are directly targeting Sony. Of course, it is just a proposal. Let Rangel as soon as possible. I just want notebook to come to me on its own initiative. I am willing to talk now."
