Chicago 1990

Chapter 117: 2 earn points

   Although Donnie Breston is highly optimistic, she is still a small role. For a big record company like Sony Columbia, Motula said that she gave up and gave up, and it will not have any effect on him. However, Song Ya still took the initiative to take the pot, nothing else, he had to rely on this to make money from BABYFACE.

   Both parties are very energetic people in the music industry. This kind of opportunity to sell well on both ends is hard to come by.

In addition to the $200,000, BABYFACE has made promises on radio charts and music awards. He also helped Halle Berry to audition for Eddie Murphy’s movie. If nothing happens, there will be a lot of scenes. The female partner guarantees the bottom and can also directly enter the second round of auditions for the heroine.

   He also agreed to Song Ya's request to send Fei Ji to LAFACE Records for a period of ‘study’. He will work out a training plan to reverse the way of vocalization and singing based on Fei’s characteristics.

Fergie's current voice has a strong "milk taste". This is a problem she left when she had to continue to participate in the catalog system of children's songs because of her aging. Later, she formed an NRG with two other girls. The goal direction It is also adult lyrical and teenage pop music, which has caused her to be nearly seventeen now, and she still feels childish when she sings. This is fatal to her transition to rhythm and blues and hip-hop music.

   helped her transform the work Song Ya and Dile tried to do for a while, but both of them were not good at it. The personal vocal trainers they invited were not masters, and they had little effect. And BABYFACE, especially his partner L.A. Reid at LAFACE Records, is among the top in the world in singer training and training. With their help, I believe it can be "medicine to cure disease".

   Of course, Song Ya is also a target for giving off her daughter. The two owners of LAFACE Records are very disciplined in terms of women. Song Ya also specifically asked Fergie's sister to go to Atlanta with her.

   After reaping enough benefits, Song Ya called Donnie Breston’s agent in front of the two of them, "Miss Kelly wants that song, so...sorry to Donnie for me."

   What he was telling was actually the truth, but it made Babyface and Steven think it was an excuse. In short, they made a special trip to this small Silicon Valley town to ‘catch’ Song Ya and their purpose was achieved. The two happily left.

  Everyone is satisfied with the whole thing. The only one who suffers seems to be Donnie Breston, but it is not necessarily. LAFACE Records paid such a high price to get her, and it will only value her more and have high hopes.

   sent them away, Song Ya called Halle Berry's phone again to inform the news.

   "Thank you, APLUS! I...I..." Halle Berry began to cry again.

It’s hard to say that this woman'sends' it out. The black circle in Hollywood is not big. Eddie Murphy Playboy's reputation has long been known, and he is a top black movie star and has strong words in Paramount Pictures. Right, it is difficult for ordinary actors to refuse him.

   But Song Ya didn't care, he didn't want to have any trouble with the other party, this favor was brought to the door by the opportunity to help.

   "I paid a very high price for doing this for you, very, very big...so, cherish it."

   Of course, if you are busy, you have to earn points.

   "Where are you, I am looking for you?"

Halle didn’t know how many times she took the initiative to say, “I’m coming to you”, “Forget it, I’m very busy lately.” Although Song Ya refused, she still feels comfortable in her heart. , "By the way, is Eddie Murphy easy to deal with?" He thought of his failed film investment and happened to consult with Halle, who has been working hard in the film and television industry.

   "It's not easy to deal with, he started to think of himself as a superstar a few years ago..." Halle briefly introduced Eddie Murphy.

The black film star started his career as a comedy artist on Saturday night, then made his own talk show and then entered the film and television industry. It went smoothly. He thought he was worthy of his friends, except for MJ and Quincy Jones. Coffee, it can be said to be very inflated.

Coincidentally, in the mid-1980s, Paramount Pictures fell into a slump after Barry Diller and Michael Eisner at the helm were poached by other film and television giants. Eddie Murphy’s stable and profitable comedy films were simply life-saving for them. Straw, so Eddie Murphy was able to dominate Paramount, becoming the most powerful black actor ever in Hollywood.

   "But the year before last he started to go downhill..."

Beginning the year before last, Eddie Murphy’s Harlem Night at the box office lost in word-of-mouth. White audiences in the United States became tired of his comedy, and black audiences also criticized his image in the movie. Talking in a black accent, the ugly interpretation of the shortcomings is considered by blacks to be a self-dwarfing for white amusement. Moreover, he is such a **** star, but he does not promote other black practitioners. For example, the black director Spike Lee, who has worked with Halle, is very uncomfortable with him and has repeatedly criticized him.

   "So he is going to play a big game this time..."

Eddie Murphy is a clever man. For this new film, St. La has invested more than 40 million yuan from Paramount. He also uses an all-black lineup from the actors to the soundtrack. He will also change his image as a harlequin in the movie. , Act as the boss of a successful company. In short, this movie is his high hopes to reverse the reputation.

"More than 40 million..." Song Ya realized that there are black people playing so big in Hollywood. The 40 million people of this era are not considered top-notch but absolute first-line big productions in Hollywood. "Then you fight for it..." I don’t doubt Halle’s hard work and hard work, but I’m afraid she’s clever again, but she’s been wronged by her cleverness. "For the heroine of such a big investment, it’s useless to climb someone’s bed. You still work on acting and figuring out the role. Right."

   "Don't worry, I will be yours alone from now on." Hallie misunderstood.

   "Hehe, I didn't mean that." Song Ya smiled and licked his lips and hung up the phone.

   The next day, he and Song Asheng rushed directly from Silicon Valley to New York. Hayden and others were already waiting at Sony Columbia Records headquarters.

   "That's basically it."

   In the big office, Motura sits in the middle of the long desk, Song Ya sits with Song Asheng, Donovan, Hayden, and Goodman on one side, and Mariah Carey sits on the opposite side with the other participants from Sony Columbia.

   In order for Mariah Carey to get Empire State of Mind, the two sides negotiated a compromise plan.

The chorus version of Mariah Carey and Song Ya will only appear in Song Ya’s first album and singles. It is produced by A+ Records and will not be released on her own album~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Her singers will become singles. Song Ya’s triple identities as songwriter, producer and singer can be divided into about 17%. The two also signed a special performance contract for this song. Commercial performances and other performances that have appearance fees are divided into half. As free guests, they participate in each other’s concerts. Of course, there is a limit on the number of times. When the number is exceeded, the appearance fee will be agreed. .

Mariah Carey is Shinco DIVA. This deal is a big bargain for Song Ya. In order to close the deal, he took out the female solo version. This song EmpireStateofMindPart2, which has no rap element, will be held at Mariah Carey next year. She debuted as a single in the unplugged concert and was then included in her third album in 1993. Song Ya, as a songwriter and producer, enjoys 15% of the singles and 1% of Mariah Carey’s album in 1993.

The solo version was delayed until next year because of Song Ya’s insistence. He could not let the chorus version and Mariah Carey’s solo version fight at the same time. Not only would it not be beneficial to him, but it would also be compared by the audience and critics. , This is by no means a good thing, after all, mainstream media and audiences are biased towards white tastes, and most of them do not like rap music.

   Documents were exchanged for signatures and then sent to Motula.

"So be it!"

   Motula successfully resolved the domestic violence problem, Song Ya also carried the pot of giving up Donnie to him, and signed the contract cheerfully.

   "NewYork~NewYork~"

   Mariah Carey also hummed a song happily, "GOGOGO! APLUS, let's go to the recording studio!"
