Chapter 999: Media Storm

"Blame me?"

A few days later, the trip to Europe was imminent, Song Ya was on the phone with Jim Clark in the study, the door was open, and the entire Tribeca two-story apartment was full of busy people coming and going, and mobile phones and landline ringtones rang from time to time, "Didn't Netscape's stock price hit one hundred and seventy dollars several times?" This time it didn't work out, so I said it was my reason? I don't carry this pot, you don't even give me the right to vote...... What's the news? ”

He picked up the remote control and switched to a TV channel, 'A French brewing company claims that APLUS's A+ Liquor stole their Grey Goose idea, causing the company to urgently change its name to Tricolor Vodka before the product is about to launch...... The lawsuit will later be fought in both France and Milan. The anchor said.

The picture gives A+ Liquor the bottle of Grey Goose Vodka, and a paper design drawing for comparison, both of which have grey goose patterns, the French are more realistic and artistic, and A+ Liquor's is a stick figure line drawing style, "My competition is just touching porcelain, and they can't win anywhere on this similarity, unless the French court is not biased in favor of local companies...... What else? ”

He kept looking.

An unnamed family member of PΓ©rez Prado, the original accompaniment composer of Mambo No.5, said that APLUS was a thief who used his hypocritical Mr. Yes persona to deceive them into trusting him, and took advantage of the fact that PΓ©rez Prado's family was in dire need of money shortly after his death to get the cover rights to Mambo No.5 at a low price......,' added the streamer.

"It's even more outrageous, after the Mambo No.5 song became a hit, they felt like they were losing money, that's all."

Song Ya glanced at the TV station logo, which seemed to be the local channel of the newly reorganized Paramount TV Network in Los Angeles, "Jim, Jim, I'm being maliciously smeared, what if you ...... If you think I'm dragging down Netscape's reputation as an innovator, you can buy me two percent of the shares. ”

"I'm not threatening, no, no, no...... You hear me out, I know I have a reputation clause in my VC contract, but these ...... These charges of rape and plagiarism are only automatically validated if they are convicted, aren't they? Trust me, I'm innocent, this kind of thing has happened once, I won, remember? ”

"I'm not going to sell my shares, I'm not, I'm going to keep holding them, unless there's an institutional buyer willing to ...... on the day's share price Yes, I have no financial problems, I promise, I swear. We've worked well together over the years Jim, okay, if there's something you need help with I'll tell you, probably soon, this time I'm really a bit of a hassle. Thank you and goodbye. ”

"Whew!" Putting down the hot phone, and rubbing his eyebrows, Taragi probed at the door, pointing to the landline.

"Who?"

"Your ex-wife." Said the former assistant who was arrested and came to help.

"Mimi, what's the matter?"

I had to pick up the microphone again, "Yes, I'm going to send Rhaegar to Chicago for a while, and Aunt Susie will take care of it...... No! I didn't want to snatch him, I just felt like New York wasn't very safe for us lately...... You've heard about the recent events, right? The gardener of the Malibu Seaside Villa you hired before also broke the news in the tabloids about a lot of what we were doing at the time, most of which were fake...... Why don't I abuse you, you're beating me......"

"Okay, it's my scum, I'm scum...... Well, I'll be honest, this time it's really a bit dangerous, Motura is like crazy, it is estimated that he has been preparing for many years, and he has dealt with a lot of big people. I feel like I'm in a lot like MJ in '93, CBS, Paramount, and FOX are all attacking me, and there are many others who are following suit. ”

"Boss, her mom has arrived." Taraji came running again to report.

"I'm here to pick up little Rhaegar." Mariah Carey's mother walked in and said, followed by the babysitter with the baby basket.

"Okay, okay, but you have to accept the security I sent, four people, yes, old Mike hand-picked, okay. I'll be fine, and you're safe in Asia. ”

After negotiating with his ex-wife, he put down the microphone and said to his ex-mother-in-law: "I'm sorry, I really didn't want to snatch little Rhaegar away." ”

"You should have consulted with me in advance." The former mother-in-law said coldly.

"Didn't I tell Mimi, forget it, don't talk about it."

Song Ya went out to lead the way, said hello to the old Mike at the door of the bedroom, went in and picked up his son, Xiao Lega opened his eyes wide, giggled at himself, "Oh oh......" Song Ya lifted him up and put him down a few times, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and kissed him on his tender little face, before reluctantly handing it over to the nanny brought by his ex-mother-in-law.

"Looks good." The nanny checked it and expressed satisfaction with Song Ya's care during this time.

The ex-mother-in-law's face looked better, "Then let's go." ”

"Mike!" Song Ya hurriedly motioned to Old Mike to bring the four bodyguards who were ready to go, "Don't bring little Rhaegar in public, uh, it's actually best to stay in Bedford Hills all the time, my people will provide protection." ”

"Okay." The ex-mother-in-law did not refuse.

Song Ya breathed a big sigh of relief.

"Wait." Old Mike saw that he was going to be sent downstairs in person, and took out a bulletproof vest.

"Wait a minute." Song Ya took off his shirt and quickly put on the vest, "It's quite light." ”

Before he could finish speaking, Old Mike inserted an iron plate into the chest of his vest, "Uh......"

That's ...... A little heavy, Song Ya put her shirt on the outside and escorted her ex-mother-in-law downstairs all the way until she saw little Rhaega taken by the nanny to the car and leave.

"Boss......" Taragi chased to the parking lot with two mobile phones, "who will pick up first?" ”

Alas! Song Ya sighed and glanced at the caller number, "Reese? Say ......"

"Alicia? Is your partner Argus on departure? Okay, DeLay will cooperate with him in Silicon Valley, and it shouldn't be difficult to fight a lawsuit with all music websites this time, yes...... You wait. ”

He met Goodman and Hamlin on the way," Reeser said his A+ would settle the Vodka lawsuit on his own, and that he could hire a local lawyer in San Francisco. Shareholder Walmart will also send a lawyer to help. ”

"Well, we really don't have people."

Goodman and Hamlin looked at each other, "We'll keep an eye on a couple of lawsuits in Chicago." ”

"OK, and Cochrane will represent me in the Los Angeles case." Song Ya continued, "I need at least one of you two to stay with me. ”

"No problem, by the way, the Chicago police have arrived, and they're going to ask for some details about Ellie's relationship with you."

"Okay, let them wait first."

Song Ya followed Goodman's fingers and saw that the two plainclothes agents were sitting in the living room greeting him, and their attitude was friendly, so he also smiled at them, his eyes fell on the holster on their waists, and he subconsciously touched his bulletproof vest and walked directly back to the study.

"Alicia, I'm sorry, where did you just go? Oh yes, the lawsuit of the American music site ......"

Song Ya said: "It's just that some users have posted some music reviews on our forum, as well as singers' resumes, record sales and other data, yes, DeLay said that the website has never actively participated." ”

"Really?" Alicia questioned on the other end of the phone: "But Argus told me that there are a few well-known user IDs on the forums who do this almost every day, and they have brought in a very complete set of data for all music sites." ”

"Can you win?" Song Ya clicked the mouse a few times in front of the computer, indeed, generally this kind of so-called 'professional data sticker' will be very high and conspicuous, and enter the discussion board of a certain singer, often the first post on the homepage is.

This must have been deliberately connived at by DeLay, for the sake of traffic to the Amerika Music website.

"I guess, I told you earlier, this is ...... Gray area. ”

"Gray area."

And the governor's wife said in unison, "It's all up to you, Alicia, and thank Argus for me." Song Ya said.

Anschutz agreed, and next year the tour was reduced to 35 performances. Ms. Sloan hurried in again.

"What games were missing?" Song Ya hung up the phone and asked.

"Most of them are from the North Rice." Ms. Sloan replied.

"Ha, they're starting to think I'm not going to be popular in North Rice, right?" Song Ya sneered.

"A smear of this intensity...... "Ms. Sloane slipped a cassette of videotapes into the VCR and opened it, 'APLUS creative genius is no more?' APLUS IS A REPEAT PLAGIARIST. ''APLUS has a history of violence. ''APLUS connived at family beatings and robberies'' 'How crazy is APLUS playing in private?'' ''How many other women are victims of APLUS violations?'' ’

He transcribed a content clip from various entertainment media in the past few days, and the hosts of different skin colors and genders kept saying all kinds of smear titles, "plagiarizing trademarks, lyrics, music reviews, maliciously lowering the price of songs, robbing cars, beating, domestic violence, rape, ......"

They say that they are simply heinous.

"You don't have to win these lawsuits, do you? Sloane. ”

The storm and tsunami created by several major media companies are overwhelming, and there is no room for argument at all, and there is no need for the truth, even if the lawsuit is won, it will not be able to make up for it, and at that time, these media will not report it at all, "I don't read it, I finally realized what kind of pressure MJ has been under in '93." Song Ya said helplessly.

"I've also learned that the entertainment industry is no easier than it is on Capitol Hill." Sloane laughed.

"Boss!"

Tarragi came in in a hurry and changed the channel to MTV, which is a spoof star program, and the picture seems to be one of his concerts last year, unofficially filmed, yes, the one where the ear monitor was deliberately removed by a white dancer.

β€œYou make it look like it's magic……”

I started to slow down the beat after the first sentence, and then I got more and more car accidents, and the song Earned It was sung out of tune countless times, absurdly out of tune.

'Hahaha! ’

The two program hosts covered their faces and laughed after watching it, 'Is this the real level of APLUS singing?' One of them asked.

Another person replied: 'No, but many of the songs he writes are really not perfect without sound fixing, and he often needs to sing and dance on stage, which is understandable.' ’

But that's too bad, okay, let's move on to the next singer's embarrassment, from ...... Paula Abadu! ’

MTV also belongs to the Viacom group like Paramount, and it is estimated that the other party was ready but didn't have time to release the black material because of the quick defeat when the second Motura was rushed, and the person who instructed the dancer to make it bad is now undoubted, it is Motura......

β€œShxt! Compare me to the outrageous car accident diva! ”

ruined the audience's popularity, Song Ya scolded: "I obviously held an unplugged concert at his house!" ”

"But it's kind of funny." Taragi laughed.

"Are I packed?" Song Ya slapped her and kicked her out.

"APLUS, ARE YOU ALRIGHT? Two agents are waiting. Goodman was outside again.

Song Ya used to meet people, shake hands, make notes, and basically didn't say a few words, and Goodman and Hamlin were ready to respond.

As soon as the two Chicago police agents were sent away, Tony's brother came out with a bag on his back, "I'm also going back to Chicago to be investigated for beatings and robberies." ”

"Well, leave everything to the lawyer, good girl."

Song Ya hugged him, "The silencer accompanies me to Europe, you go back and control Connie by the way, don't let her be interviewed by any media." ”

"I understand ......"

Tony also left, passing by Song Asheng, Samur and Michelle, who had just entered the door.

"You ......" Goodman was surprised to see the three.

"Michelle, thank you for coming to New York, and Samur, old Song."

Song Ya shook hands with the three witnesses, "It just so happened that reminded me of so many things, I should have updated my will after I had little Rhaegar, Goodman, Hamlin, let's go to the study together, let's hurry up." ”
