Chicago 1990

"Sean accepted the assistance lawyer of the Chicago Police and Fire Workers Union, but Vic found another independent practitioner, didn't he?"

As fbi had to return to the normal process, Song Ya grasped the progress of the case much faster, and soon learned the news from Goodman who rushed over in person, "Or a female lawyer with a history of mental illness?"

"Yes."

Goodman nodded, "He doesn't want people from Peter Flock, people from unions, nor us. He doesn't even trust any law firm with complicated social relations. I feel that guy has a plan to save himself."

"You mean..." Song Ya pondered.

"Vick McGee has the motive to make a plea deal with fbi, will he... bite people?" Goodman asked worriedly.

"I just want to be able to guess what he wants to do..."

Song Ya said helplessly. Who would have thought that the guy would kill the fbi detective with a single shot? "Anyway, I can't get involved, leave the troubles to Peter, he is working hard now... We will do what we can do, and the campaign funds will be paid on time and in full, and other parties will also actively provide some support. I will let the big a privately. Encourage the black djs in Chicago to talk about him, and then they will go to the platform and endorse him."

"Well, the people we are waiting for are here."

Goodman got up, "Hello, Riiser, how are you..."

Song Ya shook hands with the three visitors. In addition to Rise, the general manager of a+ pedal company, there were two old white men, both of whom were middle-level men dug from the wine giant Seagram, one specializing in marketing and the other specializing in winery management.

As the first professional manager to mix with him, Riese is now in a bit awkward position. A+ Apparel is developing extremely fast, but A+ Pedal Company is still standing still. Although a+ Pedal Company owns 25% of a+ Apparel’s shares, The specific operation has always been that Scott, the president of a+ apparel, is directly responsible to Song Ya. The guy Scott is in the fashion industry, and Riese can't intervene at all.

Just in time, Damon Dash moved Song Ya with his urban popular theory, so he planned to put a+ wine industry under the management of Riesel and concurrently serve as the CEO of the two companies, which is considered to him for many years of dedicated service. For your own rewarding promotion.

The two coming to serve as the president of a+ wine industry, and one as the company’s general manager and marketing director. Seagram’s Bronfman Jr. just bought 80% of Universal’s companies including Universal Pictures and Mca Records and other assets. These two people are among the veterans who most fiercely oppose the boss’s cross-border move. They have good connections in the wine industry. Since the boss did not listen to them, they simply resigned and ran away early and were hired by Song Ya to focus on them. The headhunting company that followed Seagram's movement got a high salary, and asked them to dig some managers and winemakers as the backbone of the a+ wine industry under Riiser's leadership.

Everyone was seated on the seaside terrace of the Malibu Villa. "It's a beautiful place." The new president of a+ Wines complimented him while taking out an empty bottle from his handbag. "This is our first wine Grey Goose vodka. Look like."

"looks great."

Song Ya weighed it a few times, and the first feeling was that it was very handy...The bottle was slightly longer and thinner than other vodka popular in the United States, and nothing else was special.

"This is a wine label designed by an expert."

The marketing director took out a piece of label paper. The simple strokes of a grey goose were backed by Changbai Mountain and Tianchi in the background, with the words Grey Goose Vodka underneath, and a small red five-pointed star underneath.

"Very beautiful." Song Ya felt good, "So you decided to use the water from Changbai Mountain, right?"

"Yes, we took the experts to visit China for a round, where the water quality is the best. This is the capital needed to start the project, about 17 million yuan, including the construction of a complete set of water extraction and purification plants in Changbai Mountain. , The acquisition of a Siberian vodka winery, wine storage and winemaking engineers, a new winery and winemaking equipment joint venture with Changyu, as well as bottling, packaging, and even wine bottle manufacturing and wine label printing equipment...plus purchases from Northeast China Long-term contract for winter wheat."

Two managers introduced.

"So everything starts with vodka, right?"

Song Ya nodded. Since he made up his mind to enter the alcohol market, he has learned carefully that Americans still recognize European and their own brands of spirits such as red wine and whiskey. Don't think about beer. Budweiser and other American companies are very strong. , Only vodka, they can recognize brands such as Maozi or Poland, and vodka can be used as the base wine for bartending in nightclubs, and non-veteran alcoholics generally don’t care about what brand the bartender uses.

"Everything starts with making a bottle." The other party smiled.

Indeed, wine is an industry with a high value-added brand. People have different tastes, and wine customers have an early taste. The brand recognition and bottle appearance are very important. Therefore, each wine company spends a lot of money on advertising and In marketing activities, of course, this refers to consumer-grade wines, and those old winery brands that sell style are not included in this list.

"Yes, we are here today to solve this matter. Do you have any difficulties?" Song Ya asked.

"We want to find a local supplier in China. The wine bottles and wine labels are not in line with our requirements. The original equipment of the Siberian winery still has the problem of high fusel alcohol, so the brewing equipment needs to be imported from various countries. New, this can almost be regarded as a new small chemical plant. The time may be very long. The trial production is estimated to be until the end of the year..." the other party replied.

"Chemical plant...I like chemical plants, hehe..."

Song Ya smiled.

"By the way, we are going to use the sales channels of our old club Seagram. Although we have some connections there, we still need to pay a lot of money. Advertising..."

“It’s fine for the channel to use theirs for the time being, but you don’t have to worry about the promotion. I will bring the goods in the second special edition released at the end of the year, and the price will be more expensive at that time. After all, it is the wine I brought the goods.” Song Ya laughed Tao.

"Then we can rest assured."

At this time Song Asheng, Scott and others came, as well as some financial personnel and lawyers. Because part of the start-up funds came from a+ Apparel's soft sister currency balance in China, the two companies needed to coordinate.

"You guys are busy, I'll go make a call and call me whenever I have to."

Song Ya didn't have much energy to deal with specific affairs. He stared for a while, feeling that their meeting was on the normal track, and got up to do other things.

"Damondash, are you in New York, right?"

He also really needs to make a phone call. The winery project really started. After the professional managers were in place, the former jazzy who came up with the idea was marginalized. Song Ya only let him participate in some preliminary work, and then promised nothing. A marketing job in New York City put him aside. After all, black people from the street would not be able to convince the public to participate in the construction of the winery. Now he needs to be comforted.

"Yes, aplus, I've been waiting for your news, we didn't speak at the wedding..."

Damon Dash's voice came through the microphone, and there was indeed some resentment.

"Now it's basically set, about the end of the trial production, you first come to run with me to announce the first order of the second special, Grey Goose Vodka... then New York will definitely need you to work hard." Song Ya said.

"Okay, then I..."

"You come to Los Angeles to meet up first, by the way, learn something from the marketing director of a+ liquor industry." Song Ya said.

"Hey, aplus, you shouldn't invite those two old white men. They are too old and their thinking is out of date." Damon Dash took the opportunity to say.

"But we don't understand. The winery is actually a small chemical factory. Do you know how to manage it? Huh?" Song Ya is now selling.

After hanging up the phone, Linda quietly came to her side and reported: "Rise and Scout had a quarrel just now, and the quarrel was very fierce."

"Don't worry about it if you don't bother me, I know they have a bad relationship now."

Riiser provided a lot of help in the initial stage of a+ apparel and also supported a lot of manpower from the a+ pedal company. However, after taking his position as president, Scout felt that he was too fond of gesticulating, so he began to fight and squeeze the front pedal inside a+ apparel. Company executives. The relationship between the two managers under him has taken a turn for the worse, and now it has basically reached the point where there is no communication at all at the meeting, and even occasional disputes.

"Did you know? Hayden and Yeremov's relationship has also become very bad." Linda reminded him.

"Ok."

Hayden always wanted to give the packaging service of William Morris in the a+ film studio project~www.wuxiaspot.com~ but Yeremov didn't want to swallow all of them obediently. The two liked to give each other a look at their own before. Medicine, bought from film critic Elvis Mitchell after the wedding, the "How do I stop this" project started, a small project with a production cost of hundreds of thousands of dollars, Song Ya, except for Yeremov most All the roles were black actors and let him manage alone. Yeremov turned his head and accepted the package service offered by CAA at a lower price. The conflict with Hayden broke out.

Oh, by the way, Samuel of Wing Dao and O'Grady of Northern Trust seem to have quarreled because of their differences in the direction of their funds.

On the contrary, Dile, the president of a+ audio, has a very good relationship with everyone, except for the big a.

The subordinates have conflicts and Song Ya feels nothing serious. Their real harmony may not be a good sign for him, as long as they don't have infighting to affect their business.

even……

He glanced at Goodman and Song Asheng outside, and then thought of Alicia Flock. It is also a good thing that there is a competitive relationship between the several law firms that serve him. At least there is no need to worry about being deceived by them.

He felt that he was a little like mj's lawyers who were divided into several factions to fight each other. Mj is so successful, this set of methods must have merits, of course, mj seems to be fighting too much...

"Where is the merger of mj and Sony's copyright library?" he asked Linda.

"It's still negotiating. It seems very difficult. This is the record's most eye-catching big business this year." Linda replied, "Do you want to call Daniel?"

"Forget it, Daniel must be exhausted now, to be busy with his antitrust case."

Song Ya shook his head, "Since Mimi and I didn't participate in the deal, it was always inconvenient and I kept asking."
