Chicago 1990

Chicago, Highland Park.

Song Ya turned over lazily, hugged her arms empty, and her consciousness gradually became clear.

"Linda..."

He yawned and dialed the extension, and then got up to wash. When he came out of the bathroom, Linda was already there and looked calm. He also let out a sigh of relief, "How is the situation?"

"Goodman just called, and he said that someone asked him to tell you, so you don't have to worry about the female Tribune reporter."

Linda reported, "Vice President of Dow rushed to Massachusetts, ready to sit down and talk with Omniglow Chemicals, other...nothing, except for some local media, the mainstream media has not mentioned that paper for the time being."

Dow is already in action, "What are everyone talking about? MJ?"

Turn on the TV, the Apple PowerMac advertisement is playing inside, the square white case, the Rainbow Apple Logo is placed on the lower front position.

"Not bad." He nodded in satisfaction.

I heard that this PC sold 150,000 units soon after it went on the market, and the Motorola CPU in it was very powerful.

"It's not the same, MJ has been talking about, never stopped."

Linda said: "According to the news, the law enforcement agencies in Los Angeles and Santa Barbara counties have spent millions of public money on taxpayers in both places to investigate the MJ case. The expenditure on maintaining the operation of the two grand juries exceeded two hundred. Wan, the media of the two places became a quarrel."

Song Ya tilted his head and thought, "That's good news for MJ, right? The victim has chosen a civil settlement. If the criminal investigation is dragged on for such a protracted period, California politicians will change their attitude and force law enforcement agencies to give results as soon as possible. ?"

"It's good news."

Linda also agrees, “MJ’s powerful lawyers are very aggressive. They start from the prosecutor’s case handling procedures, evidence search methods, and the credibility of witnesses and other areas that can pick up faults, forcing law enforcement agencies in the two places to stop. I don’t want to do everything possible to be impeccable in every link. Otherwise, it is easy to be caught by the lawyers, resulting in invalid evidence or refusal to submit to the grand jury. Their actions have worked well, and each time the opponent is frustrated. , Will cause a major blow to the public image of law enforcement agencies and prosecutors in the two places."

"Professional law enforcement agencies have spent so much, how much did MJ spend on the lawyers?"

He has also fought a lawsuit. Song Ya knows that to a certain extent, the two sides use a reasonable and legal method to compare financial resources. The law enforcement department will have to go to work without you anyway, whether it is a police officer or a prosecutor at all levels, the salary It is much thinner than MJ's group of lawyers, and it has burned millions of taxpayers. MJ is absolutely unable to fight for no more than ten million dollars.

"Who knows, MJ should live like a year lately. His perfect response to criminal cases can't match the rumors flying in the sky."

"Ok."

He remembered that the vice president of Dow mentioned that he wanted to use the MJ case to cover up the fluorescent agent. It seemed that it didn't require any effort...

The eyes of the people have long been completely incapable of looking away. One after another, the enthusiasm has remained so high after half a year. I heard that the performance of California tabloids has risen as a result, and the whole industry is caring.

"What other news?" he asked Linda.

"Spielberg Schindler's list won seven Oscars and three in Jurassic Park." Linda replied.

"Wow, Hollywood will let him get what they want..."

Uh, I remembered that I just disagreed with Spielberg about the progress of the DTC listing. I offended him a little, but it should be okay? Spielberg's belly shouldn't even tolerate this small disagreement. After all, everyone's starting point is for the good of the company and make big money together.

"There is also 2PAC who was accused of sexual assault and abuse by a woman at the end of last year. The criminal lawsuit was about to start. At the same time, he and Quincy Jones’ daughter Rashida quarreled in the media. Rashida published a special report. An open letter condemned him, as if the cause was 2PAC's rude words to her white mother."

"What a mess."

Song Ya didn’t care about this kind of news, and Linda walked out of the bedroom and found that there were still many young men and women stranded in their villa, most of them were from the crew. They had just spent a crazy night and were hungry at the party. Around the buffet table of the service company, you can fill your stomach with food while chatting.

"Little brother……"

Cousin Connie and her little boyfriend were also there, "Did Amy stay here yesterday?" She ran over and asked.

"Yes, she is drunk...huh?" Song Ya stared at her suspiciously, "What do you care about this?"

"I thought your old relationship was rekindling." Connie murmured gossiping outside the door, "Look, she is lonely."

Looking over, Amy is sitting alone on the lawn, looking down at the dinner plate in her hand in a daze.

"Fxxk! So you are the inside line Mimi said? Connie!"

Song Ya won't be distracted by his cousin who has nothing to do with the city. "I didn't expect my family to betray me for a little bit of benefit!"

"I didn't take advantage. I like her very much. You two are right." Connie ran away quickly.

"Hey! Stop being a whistleblower!"

Song Ya smiled and yelled to her back. He also knew that Aunt Susie, Connie, and little Emily liked Mariah Carey, and received various gifts from her from time to time.

Looking at Amy's lonely back again, she felt a little distressed. Now that there are so many people, it is not convenient to go and find her for the time being, so let's talk by text message.

The next day, the work continued. In fact, all the scenes had been filmed. Now I have to gradually make up some shots that Larry was not satisfied with. The workload is not much.

Soon, two or three days later, the whole crew returned to Los Angeles one after another, and continued to make up the indoor scenes on the Universal Studios.

"Let’s cut down the interactive scenes between the second man and his family, especially his sister."

Dow basically managed to keep the media silent, so time passed so slowly until April, the film was closed soon, and the old Larry began to prepare for the editing work. The family background of the male lead in the original film was changed to male second. The head, so the interaction with my sister has also been moved over.

But the male second has too many straight-line plots and it is a bit distracting. After thinking about it, old Larry decided to cut it out, "Now the MJ case is so hot." He has another consideration. In the current public opinion environment, the male second The interaction with the underage sister is indeed a bit dazzling.

"can."

Song Ya nodded in agreement. The relationship between the characters in the original movie did not promote the plot. He only copied it into the script because of his superstition of Apocalypse.

The final editing rights of the film are a bit complicated. The three parties of A+ Film Studio, Amperin Entertainment and Universal Pictures should naturally be based on A+ Film Studio according to the investment amount, and the contract also stipulates this.

But only Universal Pictures can determine the final length of the film, so in fact the last pair of scissors has been held in their hands. After all, how long the master tape is sent to the printing factory to make copies and distribute to the theaters. Only release Fang said it can count.

In other words, they have a veto power, they can't control the micro-manipulation on the editing, and they have no right to add things to it, but they can wield the scissors and click away all the plots they don't like.

This is basically one of Hollywood's iron rules. As a newcomer in the film industry, Song Ya can't challenge it naturally, and he will return to school in mid-April, so he can't participate in the whole process. For the time being, he plans to wait until the later version to follow the original movie routines. For comments, since he chose to believe in old Larry, he wouldn't have to force it to be completely consistent with the original editing.

Anyway, the script was written in the rhythm of the original film, and it was filmed in the same way over the past three months, and there shouldn't be much deviation.

As long as there are no major conflicts between the three parties, they can basically negotiate. Spielberg has just been crowned king at the Oscars. Amperin Entertainment has a great say. As long as there is no conflict with them, the issuer There will be no chaos in the world, this is just a youth idol song and dance film, there are no sensitive social and political issues.

Plus I still have a lot of trouble.

"APLUS."

Dow’s vice president and Omniglow Chemicals have been negotiating for a long time, but the results seem to be unsatisfactory. He is in a bad mood. "The female reporter shut up, but the media, especially the professional financial media, still like to talk about you. "Pigs on the wind." Whenever they mentioned that sentence, they would talk about our acquisition. When they talk about the acquisition, they would think of light sticks. When they think of light sticks, their eyes will turn to that paper. ..."

"I am very dissatisfied with APLUS for your mobility. You must divert their attention from that **** pig as soon as possible!"

The vice president was talking and yelling, "We and Omniglow Chemicals and their ally Takeda Chemicals broke down. We will soon face the most severe public relations situation. Don't blame me for not reminding you~www.wuxiaspot.com~ If you still do nothing, I will help you personally and give you the last two days!"

"Help me what?"

"You are very smart. It should be clear that we have investigated you very carefully. We know that you do have a lot of secrets that interest the media, don't you?" He hung up.

"Hey! What's the secret? What do you know?" Song Ya shouted into the beeping busy microphone, "We're all in one group! Fxxk!"

I don't know what the other party has mastered. It is nothing more than the breaking things in the acquisition process of Barn Corporation? This kind of old-school capitalist who turned his face and didn't recognize people would do what he said, so Song Ya quickly asked his men to discuss with him.

"What can we do for you lately?"

Crisis PR Eli scratched his head, "Exposure to a sneaking scene again?"

"That hurt Mimi too much, and it didn't do much for my box office appeal." Song Ya shook his head.

"Then is there any way to get all the media to divert attention from you, a young investment genius, and the youngest African-American billionaire in two days?"

Hayden complained, "How about finding you a bastard?"

"Your joke is very outdated Hayden..." Song Ya glared at his agent.

Didi...didi...

Mariah Carey: ‘I’m going back to my country soon, did you not go back to Chicago? ’

‘Yes, I’m still in Los Angeles. Didn’t you just come back on the 5th? ’

Mariah Carey: ‘I miss you so much, I made Newman cut the schedule. I will arrive tomorrow. ’

‘Okay, I’ll pick you up at the airport. ’

Putting away the phone, "What should I do? Dow gave me only two days, and I have to pick up mimi at the airport tomorrow." He asked his men.

"Miss Kelly will be there tomorrow?" Eli sat up straight, his eyes lit up.
