Chapter 1503 The world is in chaos(1/2)
"Rashida, you..."
Quincy Jones's old thing was encouraged by her baby daughter to "help her" to acquire Warner Records. Their father-daughter perspective may be causing trouble from their own perspective, but subjectively, it must be a good intention, so the old thing is furious this time thinking that she was fooled.
Song Ya looked down at Rashida, who was not a man on both sides, who was still diligent in his work.
After all, she has been licking herself sincerely for so many years, and obedience has been tested for a long time. Her heart is not made up. I should give some compensation, "Do you have any plans for the future?"
"ah?"
Rashida took the opportunity to let her cheeks rest for a while, and then wiped the corner of her mouth blankly with the back of her hand, "What plan?"
"The ratings of the street dance competition are not good, what do you want to do next? Act in a movie? Stay at the ACE station to continue working?"
Song Ya asked: "Or go to Warner Records?"
"I want to be your girlfriend..."
Rashida said pitifully with her watery eyes.
"That won't work."
Song Ya put away the guy's business and zipped it up and stopped licking it. She pinched her pointed chin and shook it, "Be good, say something else."
“Woooooooooooo…”
"Stop crying, come here."
"oh."
"To be honest, Doug Morris is old after all, and he needs a senior assistant." Song Ya hugged her for advice.
"I don't want to go to the record industry, so everything will start again..."
Rashida naturally considered the future of her personal career. "I want to be an anchor on ACN's serious program. It's best to have some spare personal time. Of course, she has a big screen dream. After saying that, she burst into tears and laughed and stuck out her tongue embarrassedly.
"A little too much, girl..."
News anchors have one carrot and one pit. In addition to McAvoy and Jones Tuart, other ACN anchors have to go through fierce competition. Rashida's request is not easy to do, but Song Ya still decided to do it, "Okay, I'll take the time to call Ms. Sloan."
He asked again with a smile: "Ms. Sloan likes you very much. In fact, it's good to be the CEO assistant of Litman Media."
"I don't like to do administrative work," Rashida said.
Well, she is still at the age of reluctant to stay away from the camera, Song Ya is so kind, "Maybe she will let you star in a movie tomorrow."
The heroine of the burst drummer has no roles, and does not require a good appearance or acting skills, but she is still the heroine.
At this time, the telephone rang, and Song Ya pressed it down casually, "Mr. Daniel Grass is looking for you." The secretary's voice came.
"call!"
Daniel is also as short as Quincy Jones. Song Ya took a look at the time and said, "Let him wait for me in Beverly Hills first, Amy's house."
The acquisition of Warner Records broke the ceiling. Song Ya expected that it would have a great impact, but it was still fiercer than expected. Once the layoff plan was announced, the US Records industry was shocked internally and externally, and the noise was even greater than the merger of Sony Columbia Records and BMG.
There was no party arrangement, and there were no superstars such as Warner's Madonna. Song Yalian did not plan to see the new president L.A.Reid, and left it all to Doug Morris. He took it all away and went back to Chicago as soon as possible to hide from the quiet.
"Jing Tang was so funny on Oprah's talk show. What did he think? A man in his forties was jumping on the sofa."
Amy's house is rarely used to hold parties, but it is not an obstacle to Daniel. When Song Ya returned, he had touched the door and was chatting with Hayden, Yelemov, Doug Morris and others.
"Maybe I want to show his youthful mentality. I'll be slandered by public opinion." Hayden speculated, "He should be more cautious. Oprah and Harvey and the others are very close, and his ex-wife..."
Oprah made Qingtang yin again, and didn't know what method he used to lure Qingtang to jump on the sofa like a child on her talk show to show her love in public to her new girlfriend Katie Holmes.
After the behavior of being slightly out of order was hyped, Liang Tang became Quan Mi's target of ridicule. Coupled with the unyielding revelations from former agent Pai Kingsley Yiyi, the style of the top male star disappeared instantly and suffered heavy losses.
"It is also possible that they are pleasing Lei Shidong, who has always wanted to force Liang Tang to bow his head."
"Impossible? The Paramount blockbuster "War of the World" directed by Spielberg and starring Liang Tang is about to start painting. What is the benefit of ruining Liang Tang when the moment is gone..."
Everyone present is their own people, and everyone talks without hesitation.
Amério, O'Grady, Donna, Doberman, Dr. Chen and others in the business community also heard the secrets of Hollywood.
"Anyway, it's absolutely right to stay away from Oprah."
Song Ya heard a little tail when she entered the door and said with a smile.
"Hahaha!"
The addition of the Black Pharaoh seemed to make this matter more interesting. Everyone laughed, "Bo SS, AP Lu S, Mr. AP Lu S" said hello in various ways.
"How many more days will stay in Los Angeles?" Song Yaxian shook hands with his friends and subordinates in the business world. Most of them had to go back after handling Warner's affairs. O'Grady said he would leave that night, "Hayden, arrange my private plane."
O'Grady, who had caused serious losses to the company in the Internet bubble, has been operating this year. On the one hand, the Internet sector has recovered. On the other hand, Northern Trust was passively involved in the Enron incident because it manages some Enron employees' 401K plan. In the follow-up investigation, CEO and CEO William Osborne was found to be poorly managed and violated fiduciary responsibilities. William Osborne was forced to resign as president and asked O'Grady to pick up a big wallet.
Of course, the internal situation of the office struggle of large companies is not so simple. O'Grady's victory will definitely be useless, and Song Ya has always maintained support.
"Oh by the way."
I felt that Daniel was looking at him, "While everyone is here," Song Ya said deliberately in public: "When Warner Records layoffs come to an end, I am going to let it acquire both the Metropolitan Distribution Company and Daniel's Grass Records. How about it?"
Doug Morris is CEO, and Daniel knows that he can't fight, so he doesn't make a fuss. L.A.Reid is a black man. He knows that Song Ya needs to have a black face in the top management, and he also expresses his understanding, but he always has resentment towards both hands.
The Metropolitan Distribution Company has a little stake. Warner takes over Glass Records, which is increasingly difficult for him to maintain. He then exchanges him for a little stake in Warner to be a director through two acquisitions. He should be satisfied.
Sure enough, Daniel's eyes lit up instantly.
"Metropolitan Distribution Company and Warner Records' global distribution network are complementary, but Glass Records..." Doug Morris shook his head.
"Doug...we have been friends for so many years." Daniel looked at him again.
Doug Morris just shook his head.
When Daniel's eyes came back, Song Ya patted his arm and said, "You can discuss it." The tycoon quickly moved around this social circle with a very stylish look, "Come with me." He called Yelemov to the study alone.
"Pixar postponed the Car Mobilization until next year?"
After all, he is most concerned about Disney's battle.
"Yes, the tickets were delayed until the summer season of 2006." Yeremov replied.
"It's so damn, this Jobs."
Jobs claimed that he ended his cooperation with Disney after the Automobile Mobilization, but now he has used this trick again, so he has plenty of time to make money.
"So far, Jobs has not responded to Eisner's invitation."
Yelemov is responsible for the intelligence collection work in Hollywood. Anyway, there are no major projects in A+ Entertainment. His main job is to go to major independent film festivals to acquire copyright distribution rights, or buy some small and medium-sized companies' low-cost old films and B-level films.
"Well, Xuelin is going to start shooting in Twilight, what do you think?"
Song Ya asked.
"Youth dramas with vampire elements use beautiful newcomers to play high school students. The cost of spending more money on special effects will not exceed 30 million."
It is natural to have a job. Yelemov replied: "That original novel is very popular now. Xuelin and I have met the author several times. She said she still read the first part of Fifty Shades of Gray, which is the one you wrote the script that triggered the creative passion! However, she has considerable requirements for casting and screenwriter power, and is very stubborn. I don't want to agree, but Xuelin... You know, Xuelin loves that novel so much now."
"Yeah?"
Song Ya blinked, "Xuelin is also an old producer. She should understand. Please help supervise the cost, let her go with the rest." Forget it, if you have less than 30 million projects, just keep your promise and let Xuelinfen play with her own temperament.
"You wrote the script for the first few episodes of the first season of Grey's Academics and was shortlisted for this year's Emmy Awards. Do you want to make it?"
Yelemov reported good news again, "If you win the Emmy Award again, you will combine the three major awards of Oscars, Grammys and Emmy, and you are only one last step away from EGOT (plus another Tony Award)."
"Emmmm...Okay, you go and do it. Please contact me if you need any resources."
This honor made Song Ya a little moved and nodded in agreement.
“Disney is in a mess now…”
Yelemov said before leaving: "It's a mess."
"I know."
Disney is really in chaos now, and Eisner's CEO's office has become a quarrel.
"What should we do if the Automobile Mobilization suddenly said that the ticket was delayed. What should we do if the issuing department is investing a lot, and Jobs is playing tricks on us!"
The Car Mobilization was released by Walt Disney Animation, but even Hollywood giants could not have two parallel distribution systems. Bowei Pictures naturally had the responsibility to assist. The executive vice president slapped His Majesty’s desk and made it pound the emperor’s desk, which was simply putting you in the open.
"Jobs used this trick to deliberately prevent the arrival of DreamWorks animation. Katzenberg could not wait until next summer! DreamWorks Studio will be sold to Paramount by Spielberg and David Geffen. At the end of the year, there is a high probability! At the end of last year, Katzenberg took the initiative to break up the group in order to come to Disney, but this year he will be left in the ice and snow with minus 57 degrees below zero and minus! "
Harvey had a loud voice, "He can't wait, he can't wait for his animators, and special effects engineers can't wait. The long-term uncertainty will make DreamWorks animation unable to retain talents!"
After yelling at His Majesty the Emperor, the two found that their positions were consistent. They looked at each other and turned their heads. Harvey continued his complaint: "Do you know how it is spreading outside now? They said that you and Lei Shidong are cooperating with the other five majors, successfully alienating the three giants and destroying DreamWorks!"
"Ha! This is not a bad reputation, right?"
Jobs's move made Eisner sit in Diaoyutai more firmly, but he was happy. This was not the attitude of offending his opponents before.
"I can't stand you anymore!"
Harvey was already arrogant and arrogant, and he showed his madness. He first threw a look at His Majesty the Emperor, and then pointed his index finger at the executive vice president of Bowei Film, "Also, don't think I don't know the little movements behind you during the release of "City of Sin". Warn you, it's better to be honest!"
Sin City is a film directed by his Miramax director Robert Rodriguez, Quentin Tarantino and comic master Frank Miller. The comic elements and pictures with strong and unique styles have received unanimous praise from home and abroad after they were released on April Fool's Day on April Fools' Day. However, in the release, especially the international release of Miramax, which was beyond the reach of Miramax, he was so angry that he was a little stumbling.
Eisner was so angry at his actions that he couldn't laugh.
"You have victim delusions!"
All of them are fighting, who is afraid of whom? The executive vice president who is in charge of Bowei Film's power was licked by Disney's production companies before, so he immediately retorted, "Don't talk nonsense without evidence! Do you think you have not caused me enough trouble?"
To be continued...
