Chapter 1008: The King of Crooked Ideas

"I love Lisbon, I love the weather, the people, the scenery ......"

was being interviewed, the door was pushed open, and Song Ya glanced at Hallie, who was hiding behind Old Mike, "Let's record here for the time being, take a break." So he smiled at the Portuguese reporter who interviewed him: "There is a reception here at noon, prepared for you." ”

"Okay."

He shook hands with the members of the interview team such as the cameraman neatly, chatted briefly, and strode out.

"Oh, Hallie, poor Hallie......" only to mutter, only to find that Hallie was still standing next to CAA's agent, Pekingsley, and ...... Pierre Sutton.

Guessing why these two people came, their faces instantly turned bad.

"Ms. Kingsley happened to be on a flight with me." Harley, who was wearing sunglasses in a low-key manner, explained.

"Let's talk to me."

This floor of the hotel was all chartered by Anschutz, Song Ya took the three of them to their presidential suite at the end of the corridor, but they couldn't open the door handle, and the door was locked, "Huh? Strangely enough, the door was opened by the people inside, and a Caucasian woman stretched out a Portuguese guilder of one hundred denominations between her fingers, and swayed up and down playfully.

"What...... Meaning? Puzzled, Hallie took the bill.

Song Yanu mouthed, shrugged, and shook his head.

"Well, I thought it was a waiter."

The person inside immediately opened the door when he heard Hallie's voice, it turned out to be Ms. Sloane, who was holding the only white bath towel on her body with her other hand, "Please come in, I'm sorry APLUS, the water has stopped in my room, so I borrowed you for the bathroom, and the interview ended so early?" ”

The reaction is fast.

"It's okay, you please, there are guests coming, so I asked the reporters to wait for the afternoon to continue the interview. Hallie, Pierre, and Ms. Kingsley, come in. Songya let Hallie and the others into the room, and Sloane trotted to the bathroom.

"She's so white, and her hair color is beautiful......" Hallie looked at her back, and the little radar started.

"Is this a tip? Hehe...... I remember that a hundred Portuguese guilders are worth less than a knife? ”

Pykinsley took the bill from Harry's hand and chuckled in appreciation.

"Really?" Song Ya was stunned.

'Bang! ’

The bathroom door was slammed shut by Sloane.

"We'll have to talk, APLUS." Pierre Sutton was not in the mood to participate in the woman's gossip, and said anxiously.

"Come one by one, ladies first."

Song Ya directly hung him aside, "Hallie? ”

"I'm fine, you talk about yours."

Harley took off her sunglasses and hat to keep her low-key, walked around, and walked around the living room.

Then send Kingsley, this woman came all the way to do something good, "APLUS, first of all, I noticed that A+ Records is likely to change the release contract to Universal, right?" She asked, following up on the small room.

"That's right." Song Ya nodded.

"Fergie is now the most popular and best-selling singer on A+ Records besides you, and she has always worked well with Sony Columbia Records...... "Billy Kingsley asked for money for his client.

"Historically, we didn't get along with Sony Columbia Records, and Universal wasn't bad either, and we were still ...... in Los Angeles"

Now I don't have the energy to talk too much about the renewal of the contract, "I'll write a check to Fergie, in fact, with her long-term contract, A+ Records changed publishers between the Big Six, and you don't have any reason to ask me for money." ”

Forget it if you leave A+ Records and go to the Met, because Disney's distribution ability in the record industry is indeed not as good as that of Sony Columbia, and Song Ya will give Jazzy some signing fees to compensate them for the contract change, so as to save trouble.

But why do you have to stay in the original company and go to the world? These brokers are in the mood for money, and they don't miss any opportunity to encourage their clients to rebel. Fergie is making trouble right now, hiding in the hotel room, not cooperating with the tour promotion and not going on stage if she doesn't give enough signing fees.

"But according to what Fergie said about the amount of money...... Rumor has it that you yourself will get 50 million or more from the world at once. I think Fergie deserves ......."

"Ms. Kingsley, I'm in a bad mood right now, you know why."

Song Ya pointed at her impatiently, "You should also know my character well, I suggest you go and persuade Phi Ji not to try to challenge my patience." ”

"I'll talk to her later."

Even as a top agent for Liangtang and CAA, Pykinsley didn't dare to stalk when he lost his temper, "There's one more thing, no, there's a mission." ”

She changed the subject, "We know you're in contact with Ovitz, and what we need you to know is this: CAA has a firm stance that Ovitz is not welcome to return to brokerage after leaving office, and we will ban him, and William Morris, ICM (International Innovation Management) ......"

"I know that Donovan called in the morning to show a similar attitude."

William Morris couldn't do anything, he played small gestures with great energy, he scolded Donovan in the morning, he went to MJ to lobby in vain, and he didn't get the support of the King of Pop at all, of course, there was no need to say these words to Pykinsley, "I understand that you are afraid that Ovitz will go back and share the cake." Song Ya replied.

"Also, if Ovitz wants to set up another stove, Mr. Eisner, the emperor of Disney, also greeted the other six Hollywood majors, hoping that they will have a similar tacit understanding." Billkinsley continued.

"Oh?"

Song Ya pursed the corners of her lips, if the other six sell Eisner's face, then Ovitz is equivalent to the end of Hollywood, or that sentence, these agents don't have a word of truth in their mouths, and they are tired to death when dealing with everyone, "This has nothing to do with me." ”

"That's best, anyway...... I'm only responsible for bringing the words to. Billkinsley said.

"If it's okay, Phigi lives in ......" Song Ya reported Ferge's room number and sent her out the door.

"Don't have time for the LSAT yet?" Jimmy, who was with him, came over with the teaching materials.

"There's no time, you just sit there." Song Ya pointed to the living room and sent him away, "Pierre." Then he led Pierre Sutton into the small room.

"I know what you're trying to say to me, I don't understand, it's clear that Oprah made the first move, and he is extremely unbounded to spread rumors and frame me, and then you black elites all contact me and persuade me not to be impulsive?"

Song Ya stared at the other party coldly, "Your father, Mr. Dinkins, Gordon, Johnson of BET, ......" He reported the names of a large number of people who called in the morning to say goodbye.

"It's a tragedy for all of us that you fight her." Pierre said with a sad face.

"I didn't cause this tragedy, you're all pretending to be confused, as if I was really the one to say that to her in private, face to face, and I don't believe you even know anything about me."

The more Song Ya said that he was angry, the more he didn't fight in one place, and he was still very aggrieved. He now has a bit of a sense of Sugnet's current state of mind, obviously Brother Life and Death 2PAC was shot and killed, and then everyone came over to be a peacemaker, telling him not to be impulsive, not to retaliate, and even take the opportunity to splash dirty water.

"I know that Oprah probably had a fire in her heart because of the last time she competed with you for the adaptation rights of the 'darling', so she ...... Anyway, you just let her go back this time, she's a woman, and it's not good for you or the whole group to get into trouble with her. ”

Pierre Sutton persuaded: "My father, Mr. Dinkins, Johnson and even Jesse Jackson have also called her, and she promised us that there will be no similar incidents in the future, and that she will find an opportunity to compensate you......"

"How to compensate?"

Song Ya stretched out her five fingers: "Linda just did an urgent poll, and among women over the age of 30, the willingness of people who watched her show to buy my record was 30 percent lower, and the willingness of black women to buy my records was 41 percent. ”

"Twenty-five years and above, thirteen percent, black women fifteen percent."

"Over twenty years old, nine percent, ten percent black women."

"There was also a slight decrease in the willingness of men to buy, especially those from middle-class families and above."

"This is a local poll in Chicago, and you won't be unaware of how much money I've lost because of it." ”

"This is her influence APLUS, you should have paid attention to maintaining a good relationship with her, at least not to have major conflicts, don't always be so arrogant, and have a softer figure......" Pierre was still there.

"! Get out of my room! Song Ya couldn't listen anymore.

"Okay, I'll go, you must be calm."

Pierre nagged and left.

Song Ya didn't bother to send it, and when she returned to the living room, Ms. Sloan had already changed into a cold professional suit, standing in front of the TV to watch local programs in Portugal without smiling, Hallie was sitting in a corner of the sofa, already napping in a daze because of the fatigue of the journey, and Jimmy was sitting in the other corner reading a book.

"A bunch of rotten people from the real M-fxxk."

Song Ya scolded and sat down beside Harley, hugged her and complained, "It's so bad that it's hypocritical, it's hypocritical, everyone understands in their hearts, and their mouths are beautiful, but in fact, they are bad without the slightest sense of right and wrong!" ”

"Don't be impulsive." Unexpectedly, Harley said the same, "In this situation, you can't fight Oprah anymore." ”

"Yes." Sloan agreed.

"Brokers are also a bunch of garbage." Song Ya also knew in her heart that what they said was the truth, but she couldn't bear it and continued to scold.

"Well, I've been bored lately, I've studied the relevant laws, in fact, celebrities don't necessarily have to have agents."

Jimmy was stunned and flipped through the law book, "It says that only agents can get jobs for artists, but the boundaries of the general statement of 'getting jobs' are not clear, and there is a lot of room for manipulation in it......"

"Don't be whimsical, Jimmy, there's a reason why this business is still rock-solid for decades."

Sloan interrupted, "The question now is what we need to do and what to say in the face of tremendous pressure...... Deal with the main contradiction first, which is the media's continued smear of APLUS. Oprah's so-called private words are hard to be falsified, and the one-time damage has been done, now we can only endure it first, pretend to maneuver, and ease the conflict. Because the African-American elites are obviously more afraid of your impulsive revenge and intensifying the internal struggle of the African-American group, because you are young, and your energy and character have been figured out. ”

"Damn, I just want to get angry right now......"

Panicking, Song Ya glanced at Jimmy, remembering that this guy has always had a lot of crooked ideas, so he simply introduced his situation, "What do you think I should do?" Jimmy. ”

"Uh, I think...... Hehe...... Never mind. ”

Jimmy thought about it, and then smiled and put back what he wanted to say.

"Say, there are no outsiders here." Song Ya said.

"Actually...... Actually, I don't think it's okay for you to get revenge, right? Pierre came all the way to persuade you personally, doesn't that mean they will acquiesce that you will do this? ”

Jimmy said, "Let's imagine what would happen if you did get revenge? And as they expected! They still have to wipe their butts that should be wiped, right? ”

"Huh?"

Song Ya raised his head and thought for a while, "yes, the contradiction was originally promoted by you and me, Oprah blackmailed me, I fought back, and then they should run to suppress Oprah and persuade her to stop seeing me in general?" ”

"So what's the benefit? You are angry, but you do not solve the fundamental contradictions, and you will be used by the media that are now smearing you, and the situation will get worse. ”

Ms. Sloan poured cold water.

"Not necessarily, right?"

Jimmy asked her rhetorically, "Who is the main force in discrediting APLUS?" Is it the conservative white media, right? In addition to Paramount, CBS claims to be a white geriatric station, and FOX is more conservative...... If you think about it, two black people tearing each other apart, they should be happy to see it, right? And if you want to see more excitement, it means that the situation can't be one-sided, otherwise how can you start a fire? ”

"Well, your deduction is counterintuitive, but it makes sense."

Ms. Sloan nodded appreciatively, "But Oprah's Harp Entertainment is not the majority shareholder, and she is also a pillar of ABC, so we really can't afford to attract more enemies." ”

"That's what M-FXXK did!"

Song Ya listened to it, and he was in the same mood as a paranoid man, "The emperor of Disney may not be able to compromise, won't he compromise with Oprah?" What about uncompromising? It's a big deal, isn't it popular, what's the big deal? ”

He excitedly put his other hand around Jimmy and exclaimed, "Haha! You're such a king of crooked ideas, Jimmy! ”

"APLUS......" Harley grabbed his arm worriedly.

"It's okay, since everyone knows that I am this character, then even if I endure others, I can't trust them, and they will even think that I am a big plotter, and sooner or later I will take revenge."

Jimmy's thinking is very good, and if he thinks about it the other way, Song Ya will also see it, could it be that Oprah will be relieved of himself if he endures this breath of bird's anger? No way! Then when you find an opportunity in the future, you will still find a way to step on yourself," you say? Sloane? ”

"Is it useful for me to object?" Sloan asked rhetorically.

"Uh, no, let's help make a plan together!"

"If you do that, then we have to work fast, preferably as if you were subconscious, undeliberate and emotionally retaliated, and ruthless. Our alliance with Ovitz can't continue, because if we agree to his proposal for a documentary, it means that we have to be patient at this stage, and Pulitzer Prize-level documentaries take too long to produce......"

Sloan glanced at Harley, and after getting Song Ya's permission, continued, "Join forces with Ovitz to discredit another black light, and your handle will fall into his hands forever." ”

"Well, and then what?"

"But we can take some advantage from Ovitz before he knows your plans." Sloane blinked wickedly.

Speaking of Ovitz, Ovitz's call came, and Song Ya pretended to deal with it and said, "I need more information, Mr. Ovitz, please forgive me for not trusting you too much at the moment." ”

"What do you want to know?" Ovitz asked.

"CBS and FOX are forgotten, why would Paramount be involved in smearing me, does Shirley Lansing really have that much power? She's just the president of Paramount Pictures. Song Ya asked.

"There's a saying that their parent company, Viacom, is interested in buying CBS, so you give Cochran 10 million to file a lawsuit against CBS, and they're quite happy to see it, even if you knock out one percent of CBS's stock price, it can save a lot of money, right?"

Ovitz laughed: "After all, everyone who knows you knows it...... Hehe, forgive me for saying that, you've always been impulsive and strong-willed to the point of paranoia, and you won't stop biting CBS. ”

I see, just like Motura, they once instigated Wesley Snepes to get into a porcelain fight, and then used their revenge to exacerbate the conflict between themselves and Sony......

"What else I don't know?" Song Ya calmed down a little.

"When we actually have a relationship...... "Ovitz didn't want to say more.

"It's not enough, Pykinsley is with me right now, she said Hollywood has come to a consensus...... This consensus is not good for you, Mr. Ovitz. Song Ya continued to persecute, "They don't want to see me join forces with you, so I need more." ”

“Shxt!”

Ovitz burst into foul language on the other end of the phone, "She used to be a small role in front of me, and I used to take care of her so much!" ”

"Business is business......

"Haha."

Ovitz smiled again, "I'll leave Disney with something you like, APLUS, like the ACN logo that was abandoned by ABC, how about it?" That's the name you used to book for A+CN, right? There are also some media elites who will leave with me, such as the veteran editor-in-chief Charles Skinner, the leading news anchor McAvoy, and the best female journalist in the Middle East, Mackenzie McHale. You see, I can get by without going back to my old job, can I? ”

"They're all white, right?" Song Ya asked.

"Isn't your A+CN being a defendant just because it's 'too dark'?" Ovitz replied.

When the side began to speed up, the disgusted Pierre Sutton was unaware, at noon, he attended a reception for the Portuguese press, and in the afternoon he asked to see Song Ya and was denied, so he had to stay in his hotel room.

"There will be a drinking party in the evening, but APLUS may not be there, he is afraid of assassination, so he didn't show up at noon......"

"Yes, I'll be back for one night, I'll go back to the inner city broadcaster," he said, putting on his shoes and talking to his father, Pacsy Sutton, "yes, I'll be back for one night, there's a lot going on at the inner-city broadcaster." APLUS? He was really angry with Oprah this time, and Halle Berry was still complaining by his side, but ...... Others should have persuaded APLUS, like Ms. Sloane, to always be sane. Well? You wait......"

"What's wrong?" Old Sutton asked on the other end of the phone.

The microphone was on his lips, but Pierre Sutton did not answer, and APLUS, who was dressed in a hip-hop outfit with a large gold chain rhinestone tag, appeared on the TV in the guest room, sitting on the sofa and half-lying on the sofa, being interviewed by the local English-language TV station in Portugal.

"You mean, Oprah is slandering you?" The moderator asked.

"Yes, I'd never say that to a woman, and I've never seen her a few times!"

APLUS WAS SO EXCITED THAT HE RANTED IN A CHICAGO ACCENT: "YOU KNOW WHAT? She M-F...... It's a hypocritical, insidious, lie-filled woman, eggplant person, black-skinned and white-hearted, and the media that smear and attack me, they are all in the same group! ”

"Uh, you're talking about Oprah?" The moderator confirms carefully.

"It's her, she's ...... Hoho……”

APLUS SHOOK HIS HEAD AND SNEERED, "DON'T THINK SHE'S A GOOD MAN AND A WOMAN, BROTHER, LET ME TELL YOU, I ALSO KNOW A LOT OF BLACK MATERIAL ABOUT HER, BUT I DIDN'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT BEFORE." ”

"For example?"

"Take philanthropy, I used to check the accounts when I first bought the Inner City Broadcasting Company, and guess what I saw? Well? ”

"Ho!" Pierre Sutton gasped at this, and the landline microphone in his hand fell to the carpet with a muffled sound.

"What's wrong? Pierre? Pierre!? ”

Old Sutton shouted worriedly, "Was it APLUS talking just now?" ”

The host on the TV screen continued to ask, "What? ”

"Oprah, the showy and stingy woman who pledged millions of dollars, but in reality? There's no fart, that's ...... She didn't pay the bill at all, but her good reputation was earned, how disgusting is that, right? The poor people of the United States and the children of Africa who are full of anticipation are still waiting for it......"

"You...... Is there any evidence? ”

"Lao Tzu has, I have all of them, I have long known that woman is not a good thing! Want to partner with someone else to slander me? Okay, let's spread it out together and compete to see who is dirtier! ”

"Can ......"

"Brought, give!" Song Ya handed the host a few pieces of paper haughtily, "If you want to see it, you can also go to the American music website, I will release it later, the website is WWW...... I still have a lot of material, a lot of Oprah's childhood experiences are made up, haha, you don't know, right? ”

"Daddy!"

Pierre Sutton slowed down and grabbed the microphone, "APLUS is retaliating with the evidence of Oprah's fraud, our evidence!" It's already been broadcast by the Portuguese media! ”

"Ho!"

The old man barely caught his breath at that head.

"What are we going to do!?" Pierre Sutton wailed.

"What else can I do!? It's all to blame Oprah for running to mess with APLUS! I'm going to see her and persuade her to let APLUS take this breath and forget it, don't be like a child, let ...... Let whites see our jokes! ”

"Pierre? Missing! ”

In the early hours of the morning, Song Ya didn't know how many times she had refused Pierre's request to see, wouldn't it be nice to roll the sheets with her arms around Harley? “Hi! Mr. Ovitz. ”

He answered the call from Ovitz that came in, "Yes, I said it, I couldn't hold back, haha." Our documentary project? Sorry, I said it all......"

"I didn't expect you to be such a partner APLUS, you are too impulsive!" Ovitz was harshly reprimanded.

"And guess what?"

Song Ya replied: "The two of us are now tied one to one." ”
