Chicago 1990

The Gulfstream plane slowly landed at the international airport on Grand Bahama Island. Taraji and Linda put on tropical wind skirts early and ran off the gangway cheering.

Song Ya yawned for a long time. He and Hayden also put on Hawaiian shirts, "It was not warm as expected."

"It's January."

Hayden replied, when Old Mike and Mavota walked forward with their suitcases, the two followed out of the cabin. Mariah Carey’s female assistant had already taken the courtesy car to pick him up, and the group got into the car and headed for the port. Hurry up and take the yacht Mariah Carey bought when she was engaged.

"The Bahamas is southeast of Florida, northeast of Cuba..."

The boat was heading south, smelling the sweet West Atlantic sea breeze, Song Ya and Hayden leaned on the railing to look out, and the blue sky was washed away. Hayden enthusiastically introduced: "Many celebrities have bought islands here. Look, The island on the side belongs to Bernard Arnott, chairman of LVMH, and further south, we will pass the island that David Copperfield just bought, and the family of Kennedy’s wife..."

Song Ya was not in the mood. He couldn't help thinking that his trip started from the Malibu Seaside Villa, which once belonged to the Maxwell family that controlled the British Mirror Group, and the tycoon Robert Maxwell himself was traveling on a yacht. It's not clear that I died at sea...

"I'll stay in the cabin for a while."

After watching the tropical island for a long time, Song Ya felt bored and a little nervous. After the so-called treason case broke up, didn't Goodman warn some people to deal with him flatly? Maybe it's really possible. The danger always comes from unknown directions. The more he thought about it, the more timid he became, so he simply hid in the cabin and looked at the captain at the helm from time to time, "Can't you land at an airport closer to Bracelet Island?" "

"Gulfstream 4SP can't do it, small planes can."

This is the trouble of losing Cuba. Regardless of its products, tourism resources, infrastructure, people's quality, and strategic location, Cuba ranks first in the Caribbean. Casinos, bars, beaches, coastlines, natural and cultural scenery... almost the Bahamas. , Las Vegas, Atlantic City.

It used to be a holiday mecca that the middle class of the U.S. can afford. U.S. industry giants such as agriculture, tourism, brewing, tobacco, and even the Mafia have made large-scale investments there, but the benefits have basically been shared by U.S. capital and Cuba. The ruling class of China was divided, and the gap between the rich and the poor was extremely alarming, and then something that everyone knew happened.

The Americans have special feelings for Cuba. Even if the embargo has long been imposed, the rich Americans are still proud of the smuggled Havana cigars. Politicians are always imagining how to regain control of it, and they have not given up until now.

The voyage was very long. Linda and Taraji and some untasked bodyguards all put on bikinis or beach shorts and lay on the deck to enjoy the sun and vacation. The waiter on board delivered cocktails and Hayden was also playing outside. After a meeting, I followed up in the cabin, "Don’t you bask in the sun? APLUS, the scenery is so good, maybe it can be a little inspiration, have you started to prepare a new song?"

"No."

Song Ya has always been uncomfortable with the Westerners’ love of basking in the sun. As for the new song... "I have prepared two songs, not in a hurry, it’s too early."

The only apocalyptic songs that I haven’t given and are suitable for myself to sing are Low. In addition to the two rock music Voodoo and NoSleep2nite, a gospel symphony chorus BabaYetu, and two avant-garde minors, COPYCAT and iloveyou, I didn’t think about it. What to do. No, Voodoo will definitely make a commercial song for 3DFX's 3D accelerator card of the same name, but who should I sing for? Is it to invite a famous rock band, or A+ Records to sign a newcomer band?

But A+ records as a hip-hop and R&B label signing a white rock band is not so good...

"Wow, great, can I listen to it?" Hayden is very concerned about the information related to his income.

"No, keep it secret for now..."

It’s less than a year since the termination of the contract with Sony Columbia Records. The speed of the apocalypse on the music seems to have slowed down, but the movie clips are messed up a lot, and there is nothing to be extravagant for eating God’s meal. "You and Dono Wan and William Morris have to plan for my future." He reminded Hayden, "Is there any eyebrows?"

"There are not many choices. You have already offended EMI and PolyGram. Sony Columbia Records did not consider it. Only Universal Music, Warner Records and BMG are left. BMG's influence in the United States is less, so it is a real potential purchase. There are only Universal and Warner..." Hayden reported.

"The signing fee must be in line with my coffee position, and even a premium."

He signed with Sony Columbia Records when he debuted. He didn't get a penny of the signing money, but now is different.

"You signed on A+ Records first, and then used the A+ Records release contract to negotiate the price with the giants. The specific signing price is not easy to calculate, because there are also small and medium singers and groups such as Fergie and Common under A+ Records. ..."

Hayden said: "Can you accept that A+ Records is half controlled by the giants? If you want, 50% of the shares can be sold for a good price."

Song Ya shook his head, joking, there is no need to have so many conflicts with Motula if he wants to.

"That's not easy to talk about, you know... uh... APLUS, as a singer, you have a bad reputation for cooperating with record companies." Hayden said cautiously.

"I know."

This is indeed the case. Song Ya also knows that he has tossed up Sony Columbia Records executives and even the capital. All this is undoubtedly seen by other big executives in the recording industry. Whoever signs the contract has to weigh and weigh in advance. "But It’s your problem with William Morris. Otherwise, why should I divide so many brokers?"

"I know, I know, Donovan and I, as well as the entire William Morris will do our best for your change of record company." Hayden nodded repeatedly.

"Ok."

While chatting, the main island of Bracelet Island appeared in the skyline. The name of the island was changed by Mariah Carey, because this main island and a circle of coral reef islands formed a ring island chain like a bracelet, very beautiful, especially from If you look down from the sky.

Hayden spent more than $7 million in buying the island and the miscellaneous payments to the Bahamas government, as well as the original facilities on the island, and then renovating buildings and docks for more than $5 million.

"This island is the largest and the most beautiful among the surrounding islands. The small island next to Patilla Bell is compared to ours, it's not enough to see!"

Hayden has been busy here for a long time, standing at the bow of the ship proudly introducing them one by one, “The dock is designed by a well-known designer in Miami, and the building materials have to be transported in one by one from outside, as do the workers. Mrs. Song also asked me to stay on the island. A small tropical farm has been established in China, and people have been invited to grow ornamental plants and even fruits and vegetables..."

"Yeah, yeah." Song Ya pursed her mouth and agreed with each other. This island may be a'one-off' for herself, because after the divorce, she might not be able to come to play,'It's an expensive one. Sexual objects...'He couldn't help but ache in secret.

"Wait, why are so many people?"

When the yacht approached the pier, Linda saw the water house in the distance. It was a holiday cottage built in the sea. There were people in almost every one. From time to time, men and women leaped into the sea and the waves and laughter caused by laughter spread far away. Come.

"Ms. Song didn't tell you? She invited a lot of friends, most of them in the fashion industry. After learning that she had been shortlisted for six Grammy awards, she planned to order six unique evening dresses to receive awards. And godmother Patty Labelle and Patty’s friends, celebrities and wealthy people living on nearby islands often come to play."

Hayden smiled and said, "With her backing troupe, 13 suites and 7 water houses are not enough."

"Prodigal... forget it."

Song Ya has no temper anymore. Anyway, he will stay for a few days and will return to Los Angeles after the AMA ceremony.

The yacht is slowly approaching the shore, and the pier is also specially designed. The cross-shaped white plank extends straight into the sea from the edge of the island~www.wuxiaspot.com~ With the clear blue sea that can see the underwater coral reefs and swimming fish, and not far away The white lighthouse is very harmonious.

"Mimi..."

Song Ya followed old Mike and Hayden onto the pier, and at a glance she saw Mariah Carey who was holding her hand with Patty Labelle. She covered her bikini with a scarf and held a It seems to be something like a baby carrier.

"No, so fast?" He was taken aback.

"What's fast?! What about your mind? What about common sense? How can it be so fast!"

Mariah Carey, who arrived here ten days earlier, was obviously tanned a lot. She was in a very good mood, feigningly greeted her, and showed her her basket to Song Ya, "Hey, it's a dog..."

Glancing in, Song Ya rolled her eyes immediately, seeing a puppy that hadn't been born long before lying in the basket. Seeing the color, it should be the breed of the two Jack Russell Terriers.

"I like this place very much." Mariah Carey suddenly took the initiative to tiptoe and kissed him on the cheek. "Of the gifts you gave me, I like this place the most." She said.
