Illinois Governor Peter Flock ended his visit with his wife yesterday after signing a series of large business deals, while APLUS, who was with him, remained in the air. APLUS seems to want to avoid the limelight, except for occasionally responding to this incident through online forums, basically playing hide and seek with all the media, the interview team of the Associated Press of Mi climbed more than a dozen kilometers of the Great Wall to 'catch' him on a local tour, and then he talked about the WTO accession negotiations for an afternoon. ’

"Of course, I support that the WTO family needs China, and the sooner the better."

In the news picture, Song Ya was dressed in a short fight, and was surrounded by bodyguards, its executives, people from the embassy of the United States, the 'Ministry of Commerce', Chinese police officers, and local officials standing in front of the beacon to point out the country, and the background was the vast Chinese people who were separated from a distance to watch the lively scenery.

"Have you talked to the Grand Commander about this?" Journalists have tried to steer the conversation to the White House countless times.

"Nope!"

Song Ya interrupted sternly, "I would like to represent myself and the voice of some of the rice production industry!" ”

"Who does this kid think he is?"

Universal Music President Doug Morris peeked at the boss Bronfman Jr., and noticed that the other party was a little gloomy, and immediately mocked and turned off the TV with a disdainful expression, "BOSS, the **** person has arrived." ”

"Hmm."

Bronfman Jr. is really in a mediocre mood, not because Song Ya's exposure rate has been amazing in recent days, what kind of limelight such as the White House bathroom is a joke in the eyes of his class, the recent tug-of-war negotiations with Polygram are very difficult, he needs to prepare more ammunition, and the bank is always very strong at this time, and he is very unfamiliar with the work of begging people.

It can even be said that in the past two months, he has suffered more psychological trauma from the banking industry than in his previous life.

"Hello, Mr. Bronfman."

Of course, the attitude of the bankers must be respectful to him, and after the greetings, when talking about the main topic, they will only say something uncomfortable when talking about the matter, "The record industry is now facing a cold winter, whether it is PolyGram or Universal, the situation is not good, and the profit expectations after the merger and acquisition are ......"

"We have no problems around the world, and I believe you have already seen the relevant reports."

Doug Morris responded on behalf of the boss, "The current industry environment is a good time for mergers and acquisitions, and when we become the world's largest record company, we will have greater scale effect and industry influence." In the second half of the year, the Digital Millennium Act will be passed again, and the problem of piracy, at least in developed countries, will be reversed to a great extent, and the spring of the record industry is coming soon. ”

"Even if the Digital Millennium Act gets a legal provision that is beneficial to the record industry, the majority of piracy is still in the real world, right? Those cheap CDs that can be transcribed by industrial assembly lines......" was refuted by the **** delegation on a large scale.

"That phenomenon has been around since the days of cassette, and I don't think there's a fundamental difference between the two, that's how everybody has come through."

Doug Morris said: "Mr. Bronfman is the leader of the anti-piracy cause of the record industry, and we are very strong, not long ago, we cooperated with the police to dismantle a gang and reduce about 30% of the piracy industry chain on the West Coast, and our actions are becoming more and more powerful, and you can see from the data that for the top singers, the impact of physical record sales on piracy is not so great, but in some countries and regions where piracy is rampant, their exposure and popularity are expanding much faster than in the early years." ”

"Haha, speaking of top singers, your new APLUS album is released this year, right? Can you tell us about the expected sales? He's a man of the hour now. ”

When Song Ya was suddenly mentioned, other colleagues laughed heartily, "I just came back from Latin America, he is quite well-known over there, as long as there is a football program, he will play the Spanish song he just released, what is it called?" ”

"The cup of life."

Doug Morris slapped his ass by the way, "In the matter of APLUS, the boss did a good business and did APLUS a big favor, he had not appeared in the media for a long time, he had a tendency to be angry, and he did not have many true friends in the record industry." ”

"yes, yes, I heard you guys gave him the highest twenty-one-percent singer cut in the industry, which is zero-one-percent higher than MJ's contract with Sony Columbia? Is MJ clamoring for Sony Colombia to fulfill the terms of his contract to match the top singers? ”

Not knowing whether it was the homework done to provide financing or the accompanying information obtained while eating melons in the bathroom of the White House, they went deeper into the conversation with great interest, "Mr. Bronfman, you have a beautiful hand, which not only creates enough momentum for APLUS's comeback, but also stimulates internal conflicts among competitors." Haha, speaking of which, APLUS is really a big treasure, and no one knows better than him how to attract everyone's attention. ”

The rest of the negotiating delegation laughed.

What's going on with this joyful atmosphere!? Doug Morris noticed that little Bronfman began to hold his hands on the corners of his eyebrows in a daze, knowing that this was a habitual small action when the boss was impatient, and couldn't help sweating on his forehead, "Let's talk about the acquisition of Polygram, are you interested in joining the financing team?" ”

"Of course, otherwise we wouldn't have come."

is very professional into the negotiation state.

"APLUS, CAN YOU RESPOND POSITIVELY TO MS. LEWINSKY'S REMARKS?"

In the end, the reporter of the Mi Lianshe was also impatient with Song Ya's Tai Chi kung fu, so he simply asked directly and rudely, and then put the microphone to the other party's mouth.

"Uh, uh......"

The people of the United States beside him were all restraining their smiles, and Song Ya glanced at the reporter, "A boring question." ”

"Didn't you deny it before? You say Ms. Lewinsky is a liar. ”

"And what else are you asking!?"

"I want your personal confirmation."

"I'm not obligated to confirm anything, it's a private matter between me and Mimi, we were husband and wife at the time!"

"So, does it exist?"

"I didn't say it......"

"Then you ......"

"I mean I've been popular with her for so many years, and it's no longer necessary to reply to every rumor, then we will be tired to death."

"So it's a rumor?"

"Don't try to tempt me to give a positive answer, I know that the current lady's remarks are in the United States...... Uh, the country is very sensitive! ”

"It's not about anyone else, we're only interested in the part that has to do with yourself."

“Hey！ Don't you guys get down to business? Staring at the bathroom all day!? ”

Song Ya showed an annoyed and angry expression of being broken, and reached out to dial the camera lens, "Don't shoot, don't shoot!" That's the end of the interview! ”

In Los Angeles, Xue Linfen saw the TV picture Song Ya's palm covered, pouted and turned off the TV, "Where's the progress of the girl next door?" She asked Yeremov.

"The audition for the heroine has begun, I heard that I am going to play against Xiao Lizi, and the Hollywood girls are crazy, haha."

The resumes on Yeremov's desk were piled up, and "not only Hollywood, but many ordinary young girls whimsically wanted to get this opportunity. ”

"Oh?"

Xue Linfen smiled and dialed through the pile of resumes that Yeremov had placed alone, and soon saw Charis's beautiful face, and picked it up casually and held it in her arms, "I keep this." ”

"Charlise is a good fit, Sherlyn." Yeremov looked at Xue Linfen with a smile and warned: "She has appeared in the devil's spokesman anyway, and there is no pressure to act in R-rated films, and now her image and fame are enough." ”

————

"She wants to rely on her own personal ability to express her attitude to me and APLUS in person, so let her work hard in Hollywood."

The posture was so high before, and now I want to quietly touch the curve and eat back the grass? Not so good! Xue Linfen replied with a sneer.

"Okay, how's your progress on the cold mountain?"

There is no Xue Linfen in the list of producers of the girl next door, but Yeremov only knows that the boss is now spoiling this woman again, and he did not insist anymore, but hinted at the other party with a question not to cross the line again.

"Daniel is active, he's camping around." Xue Linfen replied proudly: "The former president of Sony Columbia Records has a wide range of connections. ”

"Well, you have to pay attention to the follow-up, our opponent is very strong."

"Oh yes, Natasha Kinski asked me to help her ask about the audition results." Xue Linfen said again.

"She can't do it, old Larry said that she is too beautiful, and she doesn't look as old as she actually is, so she is not suitable for playing the male protagonist's mother, and for that role, she is a bit expensive."

Yeremov replied. Song Ya's 'queen director' Lao Larry made a 30 million production of Universal Pictures after the football stunner was a big hit, so as soon as he heard that the girl next door was Song Ya's script, he immediately touched his nose and came back to continue working for A+ Film Studio.

"OK, I'm just asking."

Xue Linfen didn't insist anymore, to be honest, she thought she didn't know Natasha Kinski well, and it was already good to help ask.

"Ms. Finn! Coincidentally, you also came to see Mr. Yeremov? ”

A strong competitor in Cold Mountain, coupled with the fact that everyone thinks that she can exert influence on the Girl Next Door project, Xue Linfen is now a popular producer in Hollywood, and as soon as she walked out of the A+ film studio, she was pretended to be accosted and complimented by a big-name agent with ulterior motives: "Wow, you are still so beautiful, if you want me to say, the girl next door and the heroine of Cold Mountain should be yours, and there is no need for casting at all." ”

"No, no, I don't act."

Xue Linfen smiled and waved her hand.

"That's a big loss for Hollywood! It's a pity. ”

"It's not that exaggerated."

"Remember those days? We almost cooperated. The other party sighed and pulled up the old friendship, "It's been almost ten years, alas, time flies so fast." ”

"Really?"

It's okay not to say this, Xue Linfen was immediately recalled, back then, the other party was so arrogant that he was looking at himself with his nostrils, now? Hehe.

"Uh, where are you going?"

"A salon party at Mr. Daniel Glass's house, who just bought a house in Beverly Hills." Xue Linfen didn't stop at all.

"Former president of Sony Columbia Records, right? I know where he lives, just drop by and give you a ride? "It's hard to get rid of the agent as soon as he gets it, and he has a very thick skin.

"No need to ......"

She pointed to the members of the Cold Mountain Preparatory Team, personal assistants, and the driver's bodyguards who gathered around in the distance, "Bye? ”

"Goodbye, oh yes, I have an artist in my hand auditioning for the girl next door......"

Before the agent could finish speaking, Xue Linfen had already closed the car door, "Go to Mr. Glass's house." She instructed the driver, who, by the way, tore Charis's resume to shreds and stuffed it into her bag.

"Boss, they're gone."

Doug Morris over there just sent off the **** man and came back to report to Bronfman Jr.

"It's just messing around."

Bronfman Jr. looked at his watch unhappily, "It's as if no bank is willing to finance the acquisition of Polygram if I don't take out Seagram Wines, cut!" No good news all day! ”

"Good news...... There is one. ”

Doug Morris took the opportunity to say: "Littleman Media has just revised the price of the new shares again, which is 10 percent lower than the previous price. ”

"Hah!"

It is indeed good news, this is equivalent to the loss of more than 60 million dollars in the valuation of Littleman Media, and Bronfman Jr. smiled rarely, "Conniving at piracy should be this kind of end, of course, I am not deliberately targeting anyone, I just believe that justice will inevitably win." ”

"Of course, when the Digital Millennium Act is passed, they still have one more hurdle to pass."

Doug Morris laughed along with the conversation.

Naturally, he would not say that because of the 'East Hall Restroom Incident', APLUS's re-activity on the website caused the price drop of Littleman Media to be less than the previous Wall Street prediction, which should have been more than 60 million, at least around 100 million.

"I'm tired."

Little Bronfman stretched, "Help me put off David Geffina's party that night." ”

"Okay boss."

Doug Morris graciously escorted him all the way to the car.

The driver tuned the radio to the financial station he had been listening to lately, and said, "APLUS just left a message on the forum......

"Another." He had had enough of the recent bombardment of information about the pervasiveness of this nasty ghost and immediately ordered.

In a post on America's music website, APLUS announced that he and a local TV station in China are close to reaching a franchise joint venture agreement, which will allow Littleman Media's television business to enter China in an indirect way in a curve, which, if successful, will tie News Corp.'s hard-won gains that have taken more than a decade to achieve, leaving Viacom far behind! ’

The host of another radio station also said excitedly: "This may be the real purpose of his new investment of tens of millions of meters and donation of hundreds of millions of soft sister coins during his visit to China!" ”

"Or just a fake good to save the IPO of Litman Media."

Little Bronfman and the radio guests uttered the same sentence.

"In any case, he came later, and compared to Mr. Murdoch, there is obviously more trust in APLUS with Chinese ancestry!" The host retorted, "He does have a unique advantage, and he is very willing to spend money!" ”

"Will Wall Street buy it?" Bronfman Jr. once again shared the same opinion as the guests.

"Absolutely!" The host's answer was categorical.

"Turn it off!"

Anyway, there was no one else in the car except the most trusted driver and himself, and little Bronfman was too lazy to maintain the character of a noble son, and suddenly yelled angrily.
