Chicago 1990

Chapter 368: Daniel's dilemma

"The C round will be discussed later."

David Geffen stopped bargaining with him like a child and changed the subject: "Your WhereIsTheLove star co-sing is over?"

"Well, it's over. They are basically singers under Sony Columbia Records. They have a high degree of cooperation." Song Ya knew that it was time to leave, and chatted with him about his record. Just thinking about it, David Geffen said. The unintentional words, "Daniel didn't take you down in the past, and he might regret it forever" caught his attention.

"Why? Is Mr. Daniel Glass in trouble?"

He asked. As his noble man, Daniel is now the president of EMI North Rice. He has a high authority. He led the acquisition of Viking Records worth a billion dollars at the beginning of the year. He was recently named one of the best executives under 40 in the United States. If you have missed yourself, you shouldn't be a pity for life, right?

David Geffen is not obligated to do science for him, "Go and find out by yourself, it's not difficult."

Song Ya said goodbye and left, prompting William Morris to get some information.

After taking Viking Records at the beginning of the year, Daniel set out ambitiously to re-split and integrate all EMI's Beimi labels to improve efficiency, but unfortunately, the old giants such as Capitol Records and Viking Beimi did not buy him at all. Account. In order to forcefully promote the entire plan, he confidently split up companies with strong control such as SBK Records and Caroline Distribution. As a result, all trusted executives were eccentric, but failed to move those old giants. ...

So Daniel is indeed in a bad situation now. He suddenly lost control of his subordinate labels, and offended the basics and followers. The position of president of EMI Beimi and even the entire EMI Beimi company has a tendency to be emptied. Small factories The brand was dismantled by him into the big label, but the big label executives bypassed him and ran to communicate directly with the British head office.

"Now there is a joke circulating in the industry that after Daniel sacrificed his SBK record, he suddenly found that he had nothing, so he decided to sacrifice EMI."

Hayden said: "SBK Records is no longer able to promote singers like Vanilla Ice and the Wilson and Williams sisters. According to Daniel's original plan, SBK Records will end its mission in 1995 and merge into other labels, but now The rumors are true in 1995, and it is hard to say whether EMI North Rice will exist.

"He is a smart man, why did he make things like this?"

Song Ya was very puzzled. He had an instinctive admiration for Daniel. After all, the few chats with Daniel just after crossing over affected him too much.

"It's actually very simple. He lost in the internal political battle with the president of Capitol Records. He was half done and suddenly lost the support of the British head office. There are vanilla ice, the Wilson and Phillips sisters, and Paula Abba. Du, the three big mountains carrying sales have ended one after another, and he can't shirk the blame here." Hayden replied.

"Didn't you just say that Viking Beimi didn't buy his account? The bad luck for Paula who signed with Viking is counted on him again." Song Ya asked.

Hayden smiled, "This is the problem with the title of the president of the Beimi branch. The bad luck must be his part. Those label executives who have achieved results will all come out to grab the credit."

"Then how was he rated as the best executive?"

"With such a demolition, at least this year's financial statements will look good."

Song Ya didn't speak anymore. Daniel's dynamics must be kept track of. He is the only executive in his circle who has a good relationship and is qualified enough to beat Motula.

According to his request, Hayden brought some information from the executives of Sony Columbia Records. Basically, Motula’s enemies within the company have been gradually cleaned up by him. According to Gao Shu, he will be in the company next year. The power will be greater.

Now only the management of MJ's Epic Records doesn't buy him much. There is also Newman, who is the manager of NAS, who has had several quarrels with him.

However, MJ must have a lot of friends inside Sony Columbia Records. Song Ya remembers that on the day Motula was angry for being concealed by the MV content, he saw the smirking executives outside his office, but unfortunately he didn’t. Deliberately identify who it is.

"Anything else?" Hayden saw that he had been silent.

Song Ya glanced at him, and if Mariah Carey changed her agent, this guy might not be able to do the job, Donovan? Can consider it……

Song Ya even considered William Morris’s rival CAA. William Morris’ impression of him is really ordinary. They are still being hung up and beaten by CAA in Hollywood, and there is no sign of turning over as Goodman said.

In short, no broker will refuse to represent a DIVA, but it is impossible to be sure that the other party can withstand the coercion and temptation of Motula.

Fergie’s agent, Jimmy, reminded herself that the agent is an extremely important position, and it has the deepest binding with the employer, Mariah Carey. At the beginning, because he was the introducer, Mariah Carey If you are willing to listen to yourself, the two parties may cooperate and have a close relationship. But after starting to turn his face with Motula, her agent must consider practical interests. Maybe then, like Jimmy, she will make choices that don't meet her expectations.

"It's okay." Song Ya pursed his lips.

"Okay, then I'm busy, New York City also wants to invite you and Miss Kelly to the New Year's Eve in Times Square." Hayden stood up and said goodbye, "Some advertisers also contacted me."

As soon as the song EmpireStateOfMind was released, the New York City Hall became a cash machine for two people, with one million dollars in withdrawal every year, which was very stable.

"Oh, yes." Song Ya put his arms around his shoulders, "I heard that you will be promoted to senior partner by William Morris exceptionally next year?"

"Yes." Hayden grinned uncontrollably. "All this is the APLUS you brought to me. When we first met in 1990, I was just a small role in the Chicago office. Just over two years."

"At that time, I was even a poor boy. How much commission did you take for my first income?" Song Ya hugged him and walked towards the garage.

"Five hundred dollars, I remember clearly."

"Haha, are you still driving that broken Dodge?" Song Ya pointed to a new white Buick boulevard in the garage, the highest version with supercharger, "It should be thrown away, look there, I will give you Yes, a promotion gift."

"Wow." Hayden was touched, "Thank you APLUS, I really, really..." He went around the car in a circle~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and was a little choked.

"Come on, you can afford a better one yourself. This is nothing to you. They always laugh at me as Black Grande, but I feel you are more stingy than me."

Song Ya took out the car key from his pocket and threw it to him, "Go try, I only know you don't like foreign cars."

Spend a little money to deepen the relationship with Hayden, he went back and asked Taraji to find Daniel's phone number.

After talking to the landline for a while, I finally decided to make the call, but just pressed a few keys, I put the microphone down again.

It's still too early.

He intends to wait for MJ to finish the first stage of the global tour of the dangerous journey, and go to Dream Manor personally to explore the wind. Gao Shu said that MJ is dissatisfied with the sales of the new album, which is a good topic to cut into.

"what happened to you?"

Amy Adams came and the bird snuggled into his arms.

"Nothing, by the way, is your agent still Jimmy?" Song Ya asked, "has he got a new job for you?"

"Yes." She counted with her fingers excitedly. "The few days when you went to New York, I shot a TV commercial in Los Angeles. I was playing the role of a daughter. There are... about one or two shots. There are also some print ads used in the Target store. I heard that his family will open ten stores in Chicago next year."

"Then Jimmy is quite capable..."

Song Ya was a little surprised, "Did he plan a career path for you?"

"He gave me the addresses and phone numbers of some temporary acting classes, but I didn't register." The girl smiled embarrassedly.

"Then why not go?" Song Ya asked.

"I'll talk about it later, I want to stay with you here. There are only two of us here, and you don't go out much." She said.

"Ok……"

Song Ya hugged her, did not speak any more, feeling a bit complicated.
