Chicago 1990

Of course I have heard some rumors about Mr. Motura, I mean the most recent recording, in fact, he used to be my mentor and my boss. Maybe you don’t know, when I tried to make my debut in 90 years, I ran between major record companies. It was very hard. I also thought that there was little hope and wanted to give up the road of being a singer. It was Mr. Motula who gave me the opportunity to have me and Sony. Five years of harmonious cooperation with Columbia Records. "

On the last day of the Christmas holiday and before the opening of the last of the four tours, Song Ya personally read out a public statement, "But of course, my position on racial discrimination is zero tolerance. This has nothing to do with personal relationships, but also with me. The music company has nothing to do, zero tolerance is zero tolerance..."

Two lawyers, Goodman and Hamlin, well-known African-American media figures such as Gordon and Pierre Sutton, as well as Dave Hall, who was scolded as the fat boy of Nigro, William, the pastor of Chicago South City, and affirmative activist Mi Sher stood behind him in the mirror to express his support, "I hereby call on Sony to face this question squarely. All African Americans are eagerly waiting for the answer..."

Although it is already part of the deal between him and Sony, he still has to win beautifully. Winning makes people feel like he defeated Motura head-on. It will not be someone else, nor will it be for other reasons.

He did not participate in the Manhattan protests due to the last concert, but New York rappers such as nas, jazzy, rakim, kane dad all arrived, and the team reached its peak outside the Sony building. Because Manhattan helped the rich The rigorous organization of experience, no violent incidents occurred from beginning to end, and on the whole it was a civilized and tolerant demonstration.

Other African-American artists under Sony Columbia Records had to publicly express their solidarity, including mj, who also issued a statement through his trusted lawyer Aaron Brugman, and some of other ethnicities.

According to the correct script, Sony immediately stated that it would take the matter seriously, and they would form an internal team to investigate the incident Barabara.

That night, Motula was very compliant and cooperated to apologize publicly. First of all, he confirmed that the call was from him, but specifically stated that it was only a private call after drinking. It was an unintentional statement of emotional out-of-control. He told Dave Hall, aplus and all African Americans sincerely apologized and were willing to take responsibility for their words and deeds. Then he announced his resignation on the spot. Of course, he resigned from his current position as the president of Sony Entertainment.

This is a good strategy after negotiating the conditions. After the opponent pushed the boat and lost, Song Ya died. He took the initiative to cool down the matter before. Inner City Broadcasting Corporation and a+cn both focused on Christmas. Festival’s optimism program, according to Gordon’s words, is this time everyone wants to hear something happy.

Is this a hearty victory? Maybe it can’t be counted. First of all, in order to prevent his black basic disk from having problems in wartime, he did not dare to pierce Motula on any occasion. It is the window paper that ordinary people don’t pay much attention to. It is still possible to quietly return in mid-96 after Sony's internal investigation is over and take up the position he lost more than two years ago as the president of Sony Columbia Records.

But Sony did make very big concessions, except for the conditions that John Carly and Takaki agreed to, such as canceling the last new song plus the selected album contract, and guaranteeing a+ records and Mariah Carey and Sony Columbia from all aspects. The interests of the singers within the record are kept close to each other to prevent it from being liquidated by Motura in the future.

There are also a series of sub-city alliances such as the settlement of record revenue, the change of administrators, the tilt of film industry resources, and the prevention of cbs from publishing Sinaloa documentaries.

Maybe it’s the best result now. John Carley is right. He still can’t completely let Motula disappear from the record industry, or die socially, or die...

So how to deal with Motula is still a long-term problem, he is not little Lori.

Little Lori's recordings, unpublished posthumous works, and his death itself continue to create tangible and intangible benefits for him. Song Ya knows that it is a big victory, and the other party loses the kind that can't turn back at all.

Of course, what are you talking about turning over when people are dead?

But in order to kill Lori and Sinaloa, he also made a lot of hand tails. It is much harder to kill Motula. How to deal with his death is even more difficult and more dangerous. It may even use himself and his family. Bet on his life.

It's a bit confusing...

In short, the current results are also acceptable. Motura and Sony have retained the ability to use Sinaloa to report revenge in the future, and the same is true on their own. If Motura can really return to Sony Columbia Records in a low-key manner, all These protests and public opinion attacks can be repeated again, plus the proposal against Sony in the hands of Congressman Rangel.

In the equilibrium theory, the interests of both parties are maximized, fighting without breaking, and terror balance.

"I'm here."

He finally ended his four tour contracts with the Anschutz performing arts department. The venues were full. The only imperfection was that the fares were set relatively low, which did not match the status of superstars.

This is the first tour and cannot ask for more.

New York, John Carley's manor mansion on Long Island, and the last one-person victory did not get it, no, it should be said that I did not taste it.

I heard that this mansion had 35 large and small rooms in total. Under the guidance of John Carly, he took old Mike through the corridor and walked into an elegant and retro library. "Sandy, Ka Mr. Lee." He greeted two of the three waiting.

The library was filled with faint ink and wood fragrance, the light was dim, "aplus, welcome, please sit down." John Carley shook his hand as the host, and Sandy Glen sat on the sofa a little further away, tilted Leg, raised his hand as a greeting.

The last person was sitting deeper. On the low table in front of him were a bottle of whiskey spirits and a wine glass, a lamp that was lit, and the upper part of his body was hidden in the darkness that the lamp could not see. expression.

"Aplus... we haven't seen each other for a long time."

It was Motula’s voice, very tired, but this practice of hiding himself in the dark made Song Ya feel a little dangerous and uncomfortable, "Mr. Motula, is that you?" He did not move forward, nor did he sit down.

"Ok."

Motula stretched his hand to the wine glass, picked it up and drank it, then got up and walked a few steps forward. His face looked haggard, his shirt collar was untied, his suit was opened, and he seemed to be drinking too much. It seems that he has suffered a great deal of mental torture, and the whole person is a bit'tottering'.

Indeed, as John Carly said, this may be the hardest time for a man. Of course it is not for myself. I am here to taste the taste of victory.

"No, it's a bit close to a hearty win." Song Ya warned herself secretly and waited quietly beside John Carly.

Motula raised his eyebrows, confronted himself for a few seconds, and then moved away. He used his fingers to sort out the already slightly gray short whiskers, and his lips moved, as if he was considering the words.

Song Ya is not in a hurry. This is the third fight between him and Motula. Three times, he has more or less achieved his goal and won the second time.

He wasn't sure whether the hard-copy article was instigated by Motula, but it was obvious that his subsequent series of counterattacks had achieved results. Motula was scared, and now... just wait.

"Tommy..." Sandy Glenn, who was watching coldly, seemed a little unbearable. He looked at Motura sadly and reminded softly.

As mj's former agent and Mariah Carey's current agent, Sandy Glenn had a good personal relationship with Motula before, but as he turned against Mj, he is a good candidate for witness.

The owner John Carly is the same. He will replace Motula’s Sony Entertainment president position and succeed Daniel as his own manager. There may be conflicts between him and Motula, but he also hopes that this storm will end as soon as possible. Let his work and interests next year not produce big unpredictable risks.

"Sorry, aplus, I apologize for my wrong remarks before." Motura finally spoke out, still calm.

Song Ya slowly stretched out his hand. Of course, he wouldn't care about Motula's so-called erroneous remarks. He just wanted to see Motula face to face, officially bowing his head to himself.

"Our previous grievances are only between the two of us, don't affect our family." Motula suddenly broke down in emotion, he grabbed Song Ya's hand and said with a trembling voice.

"We all have family members, and no one wants to see that happen." Song Ya won't let him have a moral advantage at this time, "and you broke the bottom line first."

"I didn't... forget it, anyway, I apologize to you, as witnessed by Mr. Cali and Sandy."

What is the point of rebutting this now? Motula said: "Our grievances will end here. I promise you and them that I will swear by the life of the person I love the most."

"Well, it's okay, let's stop here."

Song Ya was satisfied. It seemed that the turning point was that the article about her ex-wife and daughter played the most important role. Motula had misunderstood his underworld relationship before. He didn't dare to bet, he was scared.

Just be afraid, UU read www.uukanshu.com and hum, "Thank you, Mr. Cali, Sandy, then I'll go first."

Motula’s performance today made him feel good, but he was a little bit inexplicably melancholy. This enemy didn’t see enough. Indeed, his own money and energy have already thrown him far away. How can a senior manager compete with Quan Mi 300 What about the rich and powerful?

Moreover, the opponent was subdued because he was concerned about the safety of his family, and he felt a little bit as the villain, not very comfortable.

So be it.

"Mike." He and Old Mike left in the same way.

"Tommy..." Sandy Glen walked to Motula, who bowed his head like a defeated cock, and seemed to want to say some comforting words, but finally left silently.

"Take a break here, don't get to know Tommy like a spoiled star." John Carly followed Sandy Glenn's footsteps thoughtfully, leaving Motula alone for the time being.

After Motura slumped back to his lamp, raised the other hand that had just been hidden in his pocket, looked at the crossed index and middle fingers blankly, and then continued to drink alone.
