Chicago 1990

Chapter 833: Latin Storm

The industry generally knew about the relationship between Motura and Mariah Carey at the time. After being betrayed and driven away from Sony Columbia Records at the height of his power, he immediately faced a rumor that was very intolerable for men, that the reason why women betrayed him was right. It is because he is not'strong' enough.

This kind of conjecture is malicious and ‘normal’, but it may cause more psychological trauma to men than career failure.

So at the time, I didn’t think that so many Motula hurriedly searched for a new love, and regained his dignity through the big mouth of the new love. Later, it may reflect the benefit of this lace to personal image, and it was basically eliminated through strong public relations. trace.

But this year, it's easy to leave evidence for what you say and do. Song Ya left the bottom long ago, and it just broke out two years later.

He also deliberately asked the tabloids to cheer and use the mouth of the third-rate actress to explode Motula's evaluation of Mariah Carey. Of course, he did not report it through his own Louise report. California tabloids often "help each other". A network of trustworthy relationships has also been established.

"It's disgusting!"

Mariah Carey, who was quickly smashed back to the bottom by reality from narcissism, was looking for the Zaobao’s evaluation of Xingmeng’s tears. She didn’t want to eat this fly. She threw the newspaper to the ground impatiently, "I have to come at this time. Disgusting!"

"Don't be too excited, it's bad for the fetus."

Old God Song Ya was putting down his coffee, humming. In the past two years, Motura has made him afraid to even try to invest in leverage. He was forced to be so cautious. How could it not count every loophole? Including her...

Knowing her by myself, this kind of news broke out, and now it is absolutely impossible for her to fall to Motura again.

"Go on your tour!"

She pushed Song Yaqiao's feet on the coffee table away, "I'm angry when I see you so leisurely!" She ordered the female assistant, "In the afternoon, I will participate in the ranking promotion with BoyzIIman. There will be one more show in the evening, BoyzIIman. Also promised to go!"

"Pay attention to the combination of work and rest..." Song Ya shouted to her busy back.

Motula's patience during this period made himself aware of his weakness. According to the collective analysis of his subordinates, he is now facing a very embarrassing situation. On the one hand, the accusations of discrimination are very serious. Both Sony Entertainment, which relies on selling records and movie tickets, and Sony Electronics, which sells mass electronic products, cannot be truly ignored. If it is those that do not directly face consumers and are conservative in oil, Executives in traditional industries such as the chemical industry are better off.

Sony should regret it now, they are hesitating.

On the other hand, Motula cannot fully use the power of former CBS president Howard Stringer. Stringer has not officially joined the North Missoni president. He can’t get too involved in the muddy water. As a top professional manager, listen. Saying that Sony promised to'clean up' the house before he joined the company, just like after driving away Columbia Pictures' Gubel, Sony immediately wrote off $2.7 billion in bad debts, otherwise it would be difficult to have a reliable new manager willing Be like this home again.

I'm making trouble this time. Is the house clean now? No, why bother with Stringer?

Also in front of MJ, he is the manager of MJ. Are you not afraid that MJ will replace him under the pressure of heated public opinion? Although this is unlikely, because MJ has long known the existence of that recording, but it takes time to appease MJ, right?

The words of Barry Siegel, the manager of Elvis Trust Company, were still in my ears last night, but after he fired the first shot, there seemed to be no counterattack in the media.

He was caught in a long exam.

"As planned?" Linda asked until noon when he came to help pack things up, "I'm going to the rehearsal in the afternoon. Why don't you slow down and focus on the concert tomorrow?"

"I still decided to follow the plan. The recording was delayed for two years and the effectiveness was greatly reduced. Now the other party obviously wants to delay again, then I will not delay." Song Ya made the decision that he would learn how Underwood dealt with himself. , Poses three threats.

New York, old friend of Dingkins, the city police commissioner took out a document in his office and ordered: "The recording that was buzzing recently was not in the case of Mariah Carey being wiretapped? I remember the city government sent a special Prosecutor, why did you end the case inexplicably later?"

"It should be that no new evidence has been found," the man replied.

"Call out the dossier and I will look at it again."

"This... isn't it? The special prosecutor at the time belonged to the mayor..."

"Go and adjust."

"Ok."

At the same time, Scott, the president of A+ Apparel, personally supervised and transported a batch of T-shirts into the warehouse closest to Manhattan. After Scout left, a white man appeared surreptitiously and exchanged money for a white t-shirt in Kuguan's hand. When he opened it, a big red cross was marked on the four letters of SONY on the front of his chest. .

Local black social activists have also begun to be organized by the political forces of Manhattan's help, and rumors of the big action began to spread.

Former New York Mayor Dingkins implicitly criticized BET's performance on both ends of the rat's head in this discriminatory incident in a talk show on the Washington branch of the Inner City Broadcasting Company.

Then BET couldn't bear the pressure of his own people. Johnson ordered the special report that had been prepared to be brought to the evening news preparation meeting for discussion, and he also greeted the people who had previously asked to suppress the news in advance.

"There is also black equal rights leader Jesse Jackson who took the opportunity to blackmail us through the middleman, what should I do?"

At Sony Building, the news was collected one by one. After listening to the report, Hirai immediately called the CEO who had returned to the headquarters to report to the well. After receiving the answer, he hurried to the temporarily idle Howard Stringer's home.

"APLUS, our action finally paid off, Mr. Stringer took the initiative to invite me to meet!"

Stringer was finally willing to see Daniel before he took office. He called Song Ya excitedly, "Everything will wait until I finish talking with him!"

"Okay, Daniel, don't forget everything I did for you." Song Ya hung up with a smile.

However, Stringer not only invited Daniel, but also Motula at the same time, without letting the two directly touch him, his front and back feet.

"Daniel, please sit down."

The former CBS president is a senior media person with a background of journalism. He has won the Emmy Awards nine times. He helped his glasses and said while observer Daniel said: "You know, I haven't entered the role yet, this time we just Just talking, I don’t know much about the recording industry, I can’t do much.”

"You are too humble, Mr. Stringer." Daniel complimented: "You are an idol in the media industry and mine."

"What do you think of the future recording industry? Let me talk about my rough understanding. Now the distribution company is very difficult, right? On the one hand, record sales data continues to decline, on the other hand, artist signing fees and marketing costs are getting higher... "

"Is such that."

Daniel can naturally feel that the other party is interested in the test, knowing that this is his last chance, he calmly replied: "The salary allocation of artists needs continuous and reasonable adjustment. We and the other five major record companies are planning to jointly reduce the salary. In particular, the signing money will no longer allow them to use the competition between us to blackmail so easily. The news that the top singer’s huge signing money has set new highs for years will not appear again. Of course, I will not be so rude, just like Hollywood in recent years. It’s the same as saying that we started to hype a 20 million club. We will fix the top singer’s signing bonus range, but we will promote it as a good thing and an honor."

"As for sales revenue, there is actually one root cause. Increasingly rampant piracy, including emerging piracy models on the Internet. I also led a coalition, Mr. Bronfman from Universal Music, came out to lead, forcing the government to enact strict regulations. The copyright bill has just begun, and I believe that if you give me some time, this matter will be fundamentally reversed."

"Very good, very good." Stringer was very interested and nodded approvingly.

"Tommy, what do you think of the future recording industry?"

After Daniel left home happily ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ he asked Motula the same question again.

"Grasp the trend of music and always lead people. As long as our profitability is in the top six positions, all the troubles of falling incomes and rising artist salaries are other people’s troubles. This is like countercyclical investment in industry, winning Negative has nothing to do with how much money I can make. For example, I made one yuan last year and ten yuan this year. As a manager, I doubled the profit of the company ten times, but the competitor made 100 this year, so my company still Will continue to fall behind. And if I lose ten yuan this year and others lose one hundred, then I will also win! Maybe I can take the opportunity to initiate an acquisition." Motura replied.

"Very good, very good, how do you grasp the music trend? Can you grasp it?" Stringer asked.

"Of course I can." Motura replied.

"The new R&B? Or the rock renaissance? I'm an old-school person. I like rock and roll and don't like hip-hop." Stringer laughed.

"neither."

Motura is categorical, "It's a Latin storm!"
