Chapter 1477: The First Disney Battle(1/2)

"Fxxkyou Jesse! No...no, listen to me Jesse..."

In early November, there were still some remnants of R Kelly case. Song Ya, who had already gone to Los Angeles, found some African-American media people, and celebrities were still accusing "the Cook County Prosecutor who was persistent in suppressing the light of black people," that is, Alicia.

This was a little annoying, and he called Jesse Jackson to question: "You guys have promised me in Boston!"

"Yes, we promised it, but that woman must be willing to cooperate with us!"

Jesse Jackson argued: "Send some conversations that support equality and racial reconciliation, go to Chicago South City Hospital to pull the hands of the sick black child in front of the camera... We arranged everything, but she just refused to do it! Until now, she still complains to the media from time to time that R Kelly relied on spending a lot of money to buy witnesses and hire a fantasy lawyer team to escape the blame... We can't do anything about her attitude!"

Song Ya blinked her eyes when she heard this, as if that was the case, and she left her sentence: "Anyway, I will figure it out." Then she put away her phone and pushed the door and got out of the car.

He looked up at the exterior of the building, Adriana Lima, holding a large advertising poster of the second generation Beats Walkman, walked into the department store under the escort of the bodyguard and reception staff.

In the Beverly Center, not far from Beverly Hills and West Hollywood, Palm/Beats’ first direct-operated store in Los Angeles is open.

"Ahhhh!"

When I was taking the escalator upstairs, I found that the popular king, billionaire and diamond bachelor APLUS, female customers who were coming from APLUS, screamed excitedly, and the people on the upper floors were all poking out of the railings, crowded with people.

Song Ya squeezed out a smile, waved her hands up and down to take care of every floor.

"Mr. APLUS, we need to hurry..."

The mall manager was in urgent need of order with the security staff sweating profusely.

“OK.”

Song Yashi Ran took a few quick steps and shook hands cordially with the senior executives of Palm and Beats, store managers and clerks who were lined up to welcome him.

This store is next door to the Motorola store, and there are mobile phone brands such as Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Alcatel, and Blackberry nearby.

For Palm, which only makes smartphones and PDAs, its main competitor to the same niche is BlackBerry. They have exclusive unlimited email services. When the September 11 incident occurred, almost all American communication equipment was paralyzed. It is said that only Deputy Commander Cheney's BlackBerry phone was successfully connected to the wireless Internet. The party government greatly appreciated it. The subsequent government procurement wave triggered high-end business people to follow the trend to buy.

In fact, although BlackBerry is smaller than Palm's Tero series, its performance and feature richness are far inferior.

Song Ya and her group started visiting the store with the company of the film crew.

"This is our casual listening counter, various models of Beats Walkman..."

The store manager introduced everyone one by one. The store design here also follows the self-service shopping concept of GAP and Apple, and the samples are placed on the table.

There is also a row of computers placed against the wall near the Beats exhibition area, with high chairs in front of them, which can be accessed online, so that clerks can teach customers to register and download genuine songs.

"How is the business?" Song Ya picked up a Palm PDA prototype and played with it.

"Very good, the rush to buy here was very long on the day of the release." The store manager replied.

"Yeah, well, very good."

Song Ya nodded frequently and praised and walked slowly into the small warehouse in the store. There were some shelves here, storing goods, users' returns, and repair machines, and everything seemed to be in order.

But his mood is actually not very good today, "You guys go out first, Donna..."

When Beats President Donna Dubinsky left alone in a small warehouse, he turned black. "I read the news that our Walkman was returned on a large scale abroad, and users also complained on the forum?"

"Uh, yes, some minor problems, but it has nothing to do with our products, and the Walkman hardware is fine, it's just our music store..."

Donna Dubinsky quickly explained in a low voice.

It turns out that since the Beats Music Store does not use the closed software environment like Apple, it is indeed much more convenient to give users a user experience, but at the same time, it has to face the problem of coexisting with other software in the Windows system. This accident comes from antivirus software. They will identify a DLL file of the Beats Music Store backend package that requires extremely high system permissions due to anti-pirated versions as a computer virus alarm and delete it.

Beats Music Store only communicates with some antivirus giants with high market share in Beimi, such as Symantec and Mcafee. After testing, when music stores are used by users outside Beimi, the problem arises. Antivirus software from various brands of various countries begins to be massacred, resulting in users being unable to use it.

Ordinary users who don’t understand technology immediately panic when they see the virus error. They immediately return the newly purchased Walkman and send it to repair it. They complained countless times on the forum. Very negative news such as “Beats Music Store brings Ai” also spread quickly.

Song Ya was secretly happy that the arrogant Apple gave her a chance to catch up, but she didn't expect that in reality, the chickens were pecking at each other...

"After all, it's too fast, half a year..."

Donna Dubinsky was still panicked by the old black boss in a closed small room, and he looked for reasons. "We will communicate with major global manufacturers immediately, adding a whitelist is easy to deal with. They are also eager to solve the damage caused by the manslaughter problem to their own software reputation."

"Anyway, hurry up! I don't want to listen to excuses anymore!"

Song Ya scolded her a few words, and when she went out, she returned to her warm smile. She took a series of photos with everyone in the store and successfully completed the mission to build a fortune.

The shopping center has pulled up isolation ropes on both sides of the store. It is seen that APLUS's enthusiasts have formed two human walls behind the rope. Because mobile phone manufacturers have lowered the 300,000 pixel cameras from high-end models such as the Tero series in their pockets, many people are already holding up their mobile phones to take pictures of themselves.

“APLUS!APLUS!”

Song Ya stood under the door of the store, smiled and waved her hand, gave her a thumbs up, and gave her a generous shot to them.

“APLUS!”

When switching the body to the other side, there was a fluffy blonde hair jumping behind the wall and calling herself, and this ugly hoarse female voice seemed a little familiar. Song Ya looked closely and knew her face, and she knew that she was the Hollywood star Scarlett Johansson who was very popular recently.

So he smiled and made a gesture to let the security guard put Scarlett and her assistant in the white aunt.

"Hey! What a coincidence!"

A single ponytail, plain face, jeans, white T-shirt and leather jacket, except for the expensive bag on the shoulders, she looks like a pretty ordinary short white girl.

Scarlett walked over generously in front of everyone, shook hands, "I was just upstairs, haha, are you here?"

There are crowds of big-name clothing stores such as LV upstairs, and Song Ya's forests often come.

hey-hey……

After the two movies she starred in Lost Tokyo this year, she lost her pearl earrings, Scarlett's acting skills received unanimous praise. Among her generation of Hollywood new actresses, she is already the best in career and the most popular one.

But it seems that the fame is not enough. Most passers-by in the distance are not intimate with her. She has not yet obtained the opportunity to establish her position by selling large-scale commercial blockbusters.

Finally grown up! Song Ya glanced at her chest that was at least not inferior to Christina Ricci, restraining the urge to lick her lips, and raised her hand to point to the Palm/Beats sign on top of her head.

"Oh, your business."

After parting in the 2001-year team, Scarlett was very mature in all aspects and immediately realized that both brands belonged to the Black Pharaoh.

"Yes. Uh..."

Song Ya signaled to him, "But I'm going to leave, are you together?"

“OK.”

“Yes!Yes!Yes!”

Moreover, her bold lifestyle caught Song Ya, a scumbag, off guard. After leaving the camera and people's vision, she didn't even come out of the building in Beverly Center. After a few words of each other, she hugged each other and crawled into the bathroom.

The wild young actress is really very stressful.

Song Ya was too lazy to even pay attention to the ringtones that kept ringing on her phone, and tried her best to sprint for this friendly match.

"You have my phone number?"

Finally, Scarlett tidied up her clothes and asked with a giggle. After receiving a negative answer, she took out a pen and paper from her bag and left her private phone number, which was obviously very satisfied with the game.

"The new generation of actresses is indeed becoming more and more independent..."

Afterwards, she didn't take the opportunity to ask for resources, nor did she mention any hype about love. Song Ya watched Scarlett leave so casually, opened her five fingers, put them in front of her eyes and sighed in her heart. She praised the progress of society and then slowly picked up her mobile phone.

I didn't answer the phone more than a dozen times, all from Linton.

He quickly called back.

"APLUS, what did you do just now?! Forget this, come on, Brookheimer and I are waiting for you!"

Linton was urging him so hard that he quickly set out for the appointment.

During this period, he stayed in Los Angeles mainly for Linton's business, or Disney's business, because about ten days later, the head of the Disney family, Roy Disney, will be at least 72 years old. According to the Disney board of directors, the board of directors who is 72 years old will face an exit mechanism.

It is generally believed that if a Disney family member does not have one on the board of directors, it is not good, so on that day, Disney will hold an enlarged meeting of the board of directors to discuss and amend this charter so that Roy can continue to stay on the board of directors.

But with Roy and Disney Emperor Eisner's rebellion in recent years, His Majesty the Emperor should have decided not to let Roy do what he wants.

Linton's current royalist camp has been preparing for the upcoming Disney court struggle by His Majesty the Emperor.

The Royalist Party is currently stronger, but Roy is not without the power to fight back.

Just as Jobs noticed that former CEO Amério helped him collect Apple stocks in the primary market early on, Song Ya also smelled the hidden crisis behind her and decided to personally sit in Los Angeles during this period to help Linton.

Because the global box office of Finding Nemo Jobs Pixar Animation produced by Pixar Animation exceeded Disney's own Lion Queen, the five animation contracts signed by Pixar Animation and Disney had been completed. At this critical moment, Dinis faced the issue of renewal negotiations with Pixar.

In addition to Finding Nemo, the other four are Toy Story One and Two, Bug Crisis, Monster Electric Power Company, and the five animated feature films not only created extremely high distribution revenue for Disney, but also brought amazing profits to Disneyland and surrounding areas.

These are the lifeblood of Disney Animation managed by Roy and the Disneyland Department. Roy has long expressed his support for leaving Pixar Animation and renewing his contract with Jobs.

Since Jobs did not realize the great value of Pixar animation in his early years, he was at a disadvantage when signing the first long-term contract with Disney. Now it is impossible to be so easy to talk about. He has offered an extremely high price for the next long-term contract.

Jobs not only demanded a higher box office, but also asked Disney to pay a certain share of the shares to allow him to join the Disney board of directors.

His Majesty the Emperor could not agree to this condition. Jobs had long joined forces with Buffett and Orwitz to challenge his authority. After Orwitz failed, Buffett could clear his stocks and leave with a leisurely relationship. Jobs, who had a long contract with Pixar animation, could not escape. In addition, Jobs' arrogant personality, so he has liked to complain to the public for many years and expressed his dissatisfaction with Disney's squeezing Pixar animation. The relationship between the two sides was very bad.

This time, His Majesty the Emperor must stop Jobs, even if doing so will cause losses to Disney's commercial interests.

He should also realize that Jobs may have secretly joined forces with Roy.

Song Ya is now helping Linton, that is, to help His Majesty.

Although both Linton had a good relationship with Roy Disney in his early years, now...

The situation is different.

Roy won't surrender.

The situation is gradually becoming clear. Royna's side has the support of Walt Dinnis Pictures, Disney Animation Company, Disneyland, Pixar Animation, as well as a large number of toys, vacations, and other surrounding companies, as well as some shareholders and directors.
To be continued...
