Chicago 1990

Chapter 231: Motura's sneak attack

"I want to get involved, too."

"Really? Then I welcome it, but is it okay to enter the venue based on your financial situation?"

"Uh, cough cough..."

Riclubin didn't pretend to be forced, and quickly took the phone back from Song Ya's ear, got up and walked away to whisper to Litman.

"It seems that he can indeed influence Litman." Yeremov said in a low voice: "His Def is under Warner Records. In 90 years, he relied on the group's hit album ShakeYourMoneyMaker to gain a foothold."

"But his joining will also increase the hostility of Russell Simmons." Song Ya was making a decision in his heart. There are advantages and disadvantages in accepting the other party's money.

"Russell Simmons's DefJam record is 50% owned by Sony Columbia Records." Yeremov said: "Maybe you can ask Motula for help, after all, you are now popular."

"My record company is not part of Sony Columbia Records. Speaking of which, DefJam Records is much closer than A+ Records." Song Ya shook his head.

"It can't be counted like that..." Riklubin hung up and came back, Yeremov did not continue.

"Let’s be frank, you heard APLUS just now, I can’t take out much cash, so let’s not go around in circles. I will invest between one million and one and a half million yuan, but I have to take a little more equity, because..."

He shook his phone, "My special influence."

"No problem, but it's really only a little bit more." Song Ya gestured a distance between the thickness of the hair with his thumb and index finger.

"Don't you add more?"

"Unless you can verify your special influence."

"That's too much trouble, I just want to see Russell Simmons's frustrated expression with my own eyes..." Riclubin shook his head.

"Is it really just for this?" Yeremov said. "Def, Musical, the names of these two brands match, aren't they?"

"Okay, okay, let's officially start the detailed negotiation, little by little."

The motive was revealed by the Jewish compatriots, and Riklubin ended the conversation impatiently.

Shirley Fleming is very happy to have more people entering, anyway, her main goal is to buy back the magazine and become her editor-in-chief again.

"After adjustments after tripartite negotiations, you contributed 5.5 million to account for 51% of the equity, Shirley Fleming and her friends contributed 2 million, accounting for 29% of the equity. Bin invested 1.5 million yuan, accounting for 20% of the equity, and has the corresponding management power. You gave up part of the equity, but the controlling rights are still yours. In general, you will have the final say in the future, except for Hexue Those prescribed by Li Fleming, such as maintaining the independence of the annual list jury."

Yongdao accountant handed the prepared documents to Song Ya, "They have already signed it."

"Motura asked you to go to his office." Taraji came in and reported.

Song Ya put down the pen he was going to sign, "Will he come to me for this?"

"I don't know." Taraji replied, "His secretary called me."

"Do you want to sign after talking to him?" Yeremov asked.

"Well, wait until I come back, anyway, don't worry about these hours."

Song Ya rushed to the headquarters of Sony Columbia Records and met Motula in the top-level president's office.

This is the first time the two have met here after the conflict. The relationship between the two parties has been much worse than before. Motura did not drink and chat first without seeing the field like in the past. Instead, he sat behind his desk and kept his face straight. The attitude of the deputy official.

"Russell Simmons called me and said you are vying with him for the American Music Magazine?"

Sure enough, it was because of this.

"Yes, but I focused on this magazine first. He is a latecomer. Our bid will be for nothing, Litman, the owner of the magazine." Song Ya sat in front of him and raised his legs.

"He asked me for help and wants you to cancel the operation. He is our excellent producer and label owner."

Motula picked up the microphone and handed it over, "You can chat with him here."

"I don't think so, right?" Song Ya did not answer, shrugged and said: "I have promised him not to cause extra trouble. I will only quote once, and then I will not bid with him again."

Motula put the microphone back, "But you went to work with Warner's Riklubin, which is not in the interest of Sony Columbia Records."

"He is also working with Quincy Jones. The old guy has been slandering our MJ, and Quincy Jones' entertainment company is also owned by Warner."

Song Ya fought for each other.

Motura sneered from his nostrils, "So you think you can ignore my opinion?"

"Do you also manage business activities other than records?"

"So you want to have another war?" Motura looked straight.

"I thought we were already mending the relationship, rather than drifting away..." Song Ya felt that the situation was not right and said softly.

Motula smiled, "It depends on how much effort you put in."

"I have been working hard, Mr. Motura."

"That's good." Motura threw a document over, "Mimi is going to have an unplugged concert on MTV in March. I want to use that song EmpireStateOfMind (Part II), which is the pure female version of EmpireStateOfMind, as her Sang one of the songs, and then released a live recording version of the EP."

"But we agreed that this song will appear in her 93 album."

Song Ya got the offer from the other party, and felt a little unhappy. "The chorus version of Mimi and I have been suppressed by you for a few months. If her solo version is released so early, how can the sales loss of my chorus version be counted? Times Square New Year's Eve And the buying gas gathered for the next AMA live performance will be diverted by the solo version in March. Don’t think I don’t understand this."

"Aren't you and Mimi best friends? Don't worry about this."

"What if I disagree?"

"Then you can't get that magazine~www.wuxiaspot.com~ even if you get it, it will be discredited by Russell Simmons and Quincy Jones afterwards. Maybe I will help."

"What if I agree?"

"Then I can guarantee Russell Simmons and they will calmly accept defeat."

"FXXK..." The conditions are not bad, Song Ya cursed in a low voice, got up and walked outside, "I will sign, but this is not because I am afraid of your threat, but because of Mimi's singing career. "

"Hahaha! When you concentrate on fighting with your opponent, be careful not to show your butt, BOY!"

Motula, who thought he was able, suddenly laughed wildly, "Enter the studio as soon as possible to record with Mimi!" He shouted to Song Ya's back.

"I will, I will accompany her well..." Song Ya glanced back at him and muttered to herself.

"Hi, Mimi."

He chatted on the phone and returned to Tribeca's home, "Are you ready? The solo version of EmpireStateOfMind..." he signed the acquisition documents one by one.

"Thank you, APLUS!"

Mariah Carey was very happy, and even the phone started to play coquettishly, "I also just heard the news from Tommy, and I am not ready yet. But I plan to change part of the singing of that song, okay? "

"No, no Mimi, don't think about it."

"Just a little bit, a little bit..."

"Don't think about it at all!"

"Why are you like this!?"

"I have always been like this in the studio, I am a producer."

"tyrant."

"Whatever you say."

"Then I will raise a key."

"No way."

"On a."

"Mimi..."

"Please mess with..."
