I see, Pierre, but it's not in a good position for me to get involved in the 2PAC legacy at the moment......"

"That's what Mr. Geffen asked for, and Universal has ...... on the death row records Some benefits. In a way, they're afraid that I'll get in and do bad things......"

"Well, there is a high probability that A+ Records will join the Universal Department......"

"Yes, most of the people in the global department are friendly to me, so that's all...... Let's talk about it after the 2PAC legacy is out. ”

Pierre Sutton immediately called to inform him of the news, and Song Ya carefully discussed with him in detail, "When will the verdict be pronounced in Sugnette's case of violating the parole provisions?" ”

"It's going to be late November!"

Pierre Sutton said anxiously: "Sugnette just sent 2PAC his first posthumous single disc 'To Live and Die In.' after his death, which definitely means something, 2PAC DISS Biggie and California Governor Pete Wilson in the lyrics, which shows that he actually has the means to get out 2PAC's posthumous work and select it carefully." ”

"I know, I've heard of it."

According to what 2PAC sings in that song, apparently implying that the culprit is a coalition of old rivals on the East Coast and white California authorities, at the end of the song, 2PAC also scolds Dre as a sissy and a soft egg, and the original phrase is 'Without gay ass Dre', which causes Drew's popularity on the West Coast to plummet.

Count Sugnette's counterattack after suffering the overwhelming suspicion of murder 2PAC, he used the mouth of 2PAC to name the suspect, and then stomped on the 'big traitor' Dere in his eyes.

Judging from Sugnet's performance after the death of 2PAC, Song Ya's opinion of this person has changed, not to mention anything else, he did prove that he was a 'real bandit' with his actions, but it was a little too rigid to talk about the rules of the rivers and lakes, and it was not the right time, such as clinging to the creed of never cooperating with the strip, which led to the Las Vegas police with a very high detection rate because of the lack of information, and they have not yet found out the eyebrows of the death of 2PAC.

Instead, he gave others a false accusation, saying that he was unwilling to cooperate with the police because of his weak heart.

Then Sugnett made a big deal about blood for blood, and according to the status of death row records on the West Coast and in the minds of low-class blacks in Los Angeles, the Donkey Party must have feared that he would instigate a second Los Angeles incident, which would surprise the election and make the government departments that suppressed him particularly efficient.

His living habits are the same as when MC Hammer was popular, he spends a lot of money on weekdays, and when he needs cash, he will be blind, and Death Row Records is likely to repeat the mistakes of MC Hammer and Ruthless Records, and will be bought and sold at a low price by various 'well-intentioned people' inside and outside the country who take advantage of his lack of money.

Ironically, the big E of Ruthless Records was forced by Sugneite to terminate his contract with Derui and other singers by force.

"Again, we don't do anyone else's business, let Sugnette fend for himself, I don't ask him, and I can't help him. Although he couldn't move, the Blood Gang was very strong, and didn't Kadafi, the little brother of 2PAC, claim to have seen the face of the driver who helped the gunman drive? Sugnate should have had his own clues, and the revenge plan is likely already being carried out......"

Street bandits really can't do big things, Sugnette was still proud of what violent theory he boasted to himself, can violence be more violent than the state apparatus? You violated the parole ordinance, go to jail obediently! It's not easy to have a gang background.

Sugnett will most likely lose the lawsuit, and may even go bankrupt, Song Ya didn't want to mess with the trapped beast at this time, and said to Pierre: "Of course, I'll try to get the posthumous work that can clarify for me through the world, and just take a photo of the original manuscript, right?" In addition, the media downplayed the distributor Universal, saying that I just signed to Geffen Records, and ordinary people don't care about and don't understand the affiliation between these companies. ”

Song Ya instructed: "Because the death row records also indirectly belong to the factor of Universal, I didn't want to consider Universal at the beginning, but since things have come to this point, be careful not to let the outside world spread that I want to take advantage of the situation and take advantage of the market share of the gangster rap after the death row records are finished." ”

"I understand." Pierre agreed.

"Oh yes, thank you Rashida Jones for me."

"I think it's better for you to make this call in person."

"Well, I will, hard work, Pierre."

Song Ya hung up the phone, "Has Ovitz already returned to Mi?" ”

"yes, that's probably it."

Ms. Sloan spread out the negotiating documents for the second record label.

Since David Geffen insisted on Mira, Foxy Brown was released as a condition, so the new company that carries Songya's hopes for the future will have 'apocalyptic artists' such as Jazzy, Beyoncé and her Destiny True Girl group, William Adams group, and the yet-to-be-signed stupid punk group, plus a Foxy Brown.

The new company's black, rap label is very obvious, and the two white men of the stupid punk group who play electronic music insist on living in the UK for a long time, so the studio location is best chosen in New York on the east coast, so that Foxy Brown and Destiny Mademo, Jazzy always have to rent the recording studios of Atlantic Records or Sony Columbia Records, and the stupid punk flies closer.

Ovitz promised Disney that Disney would take out one of its New York-based record labels and upgrade the studio equipment, Song Ya would pay some more contract exchange costs, Disney would take 20 percent of the shares, and Song Ya's A+ copyright and asset management company would be 80 percent, which was clear and straightforward.

The new company will use the balance of interests of AM records that year, because Disney is not good at distribution in the record industry, so it will only hand over the domestic distribution rights to them, and foreign distribution will choose one of PolyGram and EMI, which have a deeper layout in the global record industry.

The advantage of this model is that it can maintain a relatively high degree of independence, and the public relations ability is better under the balance of interests, but the disadvantages are also obvious, the issuance cost is high, and both domestic and foreign publishers will not help to promote it with all their might, unless it ......

Unless the singer is popular, both domestic and foreign distributors are obviously profitable, and the risk is low.

So AM Records had a boom when it owned Jenny Jackson, Carpenter, Sting, and the Police Band, and the Sex Pistols, and then quickly declined when its singers left or passed away.

In short, it is very high when the upper limit is high, and very low when the lower limit is low.

I hope that the singer who turned the past can follow the original historical trajectory in the apocalypse, and Jazzy Song Ya is the least worried, that guy was born to eat rap this bowl of rice, and the first album is about to cross the platinum line, and there are already signs of momentum in New York.

Ovitz's personal public relations services and other collaborations are counted separately, which naturally includes the obligation to help him through this crisis, but that will have to wait until he leaves Disney, otherwise there will be big legal problems, and it will not quench his thirst.

As the current co-CEO of Disney, he flew to Spain for several days, and Ovitz only got some 'leftovers' newcomers in his eyes, which must have been not very satisfying, but fortunately, the cooperation was reached.

Of course, the release contracts of the old A+ records and Sony Columbia records have not expired, and at present, whether it is with Universal or Ovitz, the things signed are only intentional documents, but everyone is a figure with a head and a face, and it is impossible to regret it.

"That's it, it's good." Song Ya was satisfied after reading the document.

"Did Ovitz reveal anything?" Sloan asked.

"Said some Shirley Lansing's gossip."

As president of Paramount Pictures before it was bought by tycoon Lei Shidong, Shirley Lansing is one of the few managers in Hollywood who is now committed to following the old-school superstar route.

Liang Tang relied on the salary of a Mission: Impossible film plus the box office share plus his CW Pictures producer's share, and took away a full 70 million from the global box office of 450 million at one time, plus the long-term contract signed by Liang Tang's CW Pictures with Paramount in the early years, he can still take Paramount more than 10 million yuan for nothing every year.

Another Tom, Tom Hanks, because the crew overspent on the budget when taking over Forrest Gump, Shirley Lansing agreed with him to convert half of his salary into 10% of the box office revenue, so after the box office explosion of that movie, Paramount was actually divided into 70 million by the honest Tom Hanks.

Therefore, Lei Shidong, who has a stingy personality, loves and hates her, love is naturally the ability to make money, and what she hates is that she is too indulgent to stars, especially the head male movie stars.

In the 90s, with the entry of Jewish bosses such as Lei Shidong, Murdoch, and Bronfman Jr. into Hollywood, the Seven National Congress should have a plan to secretly implement it to suppress the inflated salaries of movie stars with box office appeal year by year, such as the so-called 20 million club hyped up, this is the ceiling, you are a top movie star if you get 20 million for a film, don't think too much.

And now Lei Shidong's own Paramount Pictures has frequently fouled, which makes him very embarrassed in front of several bosses, and for some reason, he doesn't like Liangtang very much, even if Liangtang makes a lot of money for Paramount.

"Is this gossip of any use to us? As long as Shirley Lansing and Liangtang can continue to make money for Lei Shidong, Lei Shidong will continue to endure it. ”

Ms. Sloan complained.

"Like David Geffing, Ovitz will start to help, but he won't say much for the time being, after all, the contract is not in force, and the interests have not been tied yet."

After getting the A+ record spin-off, Song Ya has a new trouble in front of her, that is, how to convince those singers who were arranged to go to a new company, Disney is not one of the six major record industry, and the distributor changed from Sony Columbia Records to Disney, at present, it is obvious that it is hindering their personal development.

Foxy Brown's black chick is simple-minded, and it is easy to send it away if she gives enough signing fees, and William Adams is easy to say, after all, she has raised them for several years and has not become popular, and now a large part of her income is to help her own commercial performance, and she has no confidence to fight for anything.

Stupid punk is a newcomer from abroad, just follow the normal signing process.

Then the problem comes from the Destiny True Girl Group, they haven't released their first album yet, and they can't talk about whether they are popular or not, but Beyoncé's father Matthew Norris is very shrewd, as a person who can be called friends with former New York Mayor Dinkins, social energy is nothing to him, but he must not be considered an ordinary person.

And then there's Jazzy, and it's even harder for that guy to be fooled.

It just so happens that neither Destiny and Jazzy are artists directly affiliated with A+ Records, Destiny is signed to Matthew Norris's Music World Entertainment Records, and Jazzy is signed to Roc-A-Fella Records, which he shares with his good brothers Damon Dash and Karimpok.

These two companies, A+ Records, hold 50% of the shares and are not responsible for the specific management.

If you want to successfully complete the spin-off, you must get them first, otherwise you will not be able to fulfill the promise to the bigwigs, and the time is very tight.

The reason why Ovitz is willing to cooperate is that Jazzy and Foxy Brown's current albums are selling well, and the new record company has some prospects.

"Hey, Matthew, there's one thing, I've decided to transfer your Music World Entertainment label to a new label, and Linda will talk to you about the specifics."

Song Ya first hit Matthew Norris, who should be easier to handle, he is the boss, and he occupies an absolutely dominant position in the game, just use the notice tone to implement the will, if the other party wants to resist, he can only use a lose-lose non-cooperation method, which hurts them even more when their careers are just starting out.

"Who did you transfer 50 percent of your A+ records to? Who is the issuing company? ”

Matthew Norris's first reaction was that he had sold the Destiny True Girl, and he was very flustered, "We plan to launch the first major next year, give us more time and confidence, APLUS, my Beyoncé will not disappoint you......" he begged.

"No, where do you want to go, I'm going to spin off A+ Records and start a new company, headquartered in New York, focusing on the hip-hop market, which will be more convenient for you and me, and you don't want to come to Chicago, do you? And Linda doesn't have the energy, and she can't control the East Coast rappers, Foxy Brown and Jazzy...... You know, they're all too good at getting things done and causing me a lot of trouble. ”

Song Ya said half-truthfully.

"Oh, that's right...... So both Foxy Brown and Jazzy will go to the new company? What about you? Matthew Norris breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fergie and I are still on A+ Records, mostly Chicago and West Coast singers." Song Ya replied.

"The publisher is ......"

"I can't disclose the details yet, but when our release contract with Sony Columbia Records ends, your Music World Entertainment Records will change the contract first."

"It can't be the Big Six, right?"

Matthew Norris really guessed, "What's the name of the new label you're going to let us go to?" ”

"Uh......"

Song Ya glanced at the document in Sloan's hand, "Capital Cities Records, Metropolitan Records." ”
