"Ha ha ha ha!"

On the 7th, Song Ya's New York tour was a little smaller than Chicago tour, and all the tickets were sold out. The ticket price for the first time of the singer's tour was generally very affordable. I would rather make less money than keep the attendance.

In the afternoon, Song Ya was lying comfortably on the sofa in the lounge watching the financial program.

Today is Pearl Harbor Day. Microsoft held its Internet strategy seminar on this day. With Netscape's market value being only one step away from 10 billion, seven Internet companies have successfully listed one after another. The Internet tide should be undoubted. The software giant seems to have suddenly had the plan to make up for the failure. Microsoft boss, Bill Gates, the world's richest man, turned to talk about the Internet enthusiastically. He said: "I think the development of the Internet in the next few years will determine the direction of the entire industry for a long time. Now I have assigned the highest level of importance to the Internet. I want to make it clear that our attention to the Internet is the first priority."

But now the entire industry thinks that his reaction is obviously slow. The software giant's new operating system is selling well and the stocks have been rising, but so what? You seem to have completely missed the future.

He also said, "Netview Browser is not an amazing software." This sentence further exposes the arrogance and ignorance of the established software giants towards emerging companies and technologies.

Some financial guests who were changing their minds began to learn from Netscape President Barksard and new technology hero Mark Anderson, joking Microsoft with humorous words, saying that their slow pace is now completely unable to keep up with the new behavioral patterns of Internet companies. It took three years from Windows 3.1 to 95, and Netscape browser will release major updates every three months.

Even the blue giant ibm, which has always been criticized for being the most bureaucratic and slow to respond in technology companies, has officially launched by acquiring Lotus Software and modifying the Lotus Software's notes program into a server program. Oracle also announced its browser plan early.

What about Microsoft? I bought a long-outdated work, and Marc Anderson's college work, Mosaic browser was slightly changed and released as IE1.0, which is very difficult to use.

The software industry has always been the number one. Microsoft itself should have a deep understanding. Now it’s time to react to it and think about coming from behind? It’s too late!

The sarcasm of the financial guests for Microsoft's Internet direction from being stubborn to being gigged on their faces has been going on for a while, and everyone speaks very well.

After deciding to divorce, the feeling of depression that always lingers around before seemed to disappear. Netscape's market value is 10 billion, what is three percent of the 10 billion? Song Ya grinned at the TV and laughed silly.

The staff of the costumes, harnesses and other services who served him were busy in this huge lounge where superstar treatment was treated. They were very professional and kept silent, doing the work at hand.

“yo, aplus.”

Nas comes with the administrator Newman, who is a landlord and best friend of New York, and he will help as the opening guest at this concert.

"Hey, where is Daniel?"

Song Ya and him fists and looked behind Newman. Mr. Sony Columbia Records President unexpectedly did not show up. The gymnasium was very close to the headquarters and he should have arrived long ago.

"The head office has a very important meeting on the issue of piracy of music on the Internet," Newman replied.

"Sit down."

Song Ya turned off the TV and chatted with them. The music industry is a hardest hit area for piracy. The top singers like him are now the most hurt by Nas and the younger middle-aged singers. Nas, known as the street poet, is becoming more and more famous in the East Coast rap circle. He is almost one of the favorite rappers of professional music reviews, but the sales of records are still completely unable to match his fame.

For example, the albums under A+ Records have super high music reviews, but they just can't sell records, because rap music has a tradition of selling songs through "underground records". In the past two years, the channel has been taken over by pirated CDs that are becoming more and more convenient to burn and disseminate. Bad money drives out good coins, and the distribution of circulating records through underground channels can't return to singers and record companies.

Nas is getting angry. In New York, he was marginalized by the "bad boys" led by bragging father and Biggie through the East-West Coast War. There are countless up-and-coming stars in Queens, Brooklyn, the Bronx and other places who want to take advantage of the popularity of him by diss, get stuck in the middle and get splint-out.

"Your jazzy has a strong ability to cause trouble," he said.

"Jazzy didn't mess with you, right? I've greeted Damon Dash to him." Song Ya also heard Linda mention that Jazzy has become more and more famous in Brooklyn recently.

That should be a natural star. It can also be seen from the lyrics of the Apocalypse of the Heart of Empire. Give him a little sunshine and he can take advantage of the situation to make a big splash. For example, being valued by Aplus and signed a contract, Sony Columbia Records, one of the top six, will release his songs, and also own its own record company Roc-a-fel, etc. In addition, he has experience in prison, so he packaged himself as a street boss. He soon raised his followers and forces in Brooklyn.

He also picked two or three New York rappers to get up, stepped on each other and got in touch with Biggie. He was recommended several times in Brooklyn by Biggie as his little brother. He heard that Biggie was even willing to collaborate with him to play songs...

In short, this guy is becoming more and more famous in New York. You can see him wherever he is, and he has the best skills to do things while it is hot and has a good idea of ​​returning to the sea.

"No."

Nas is not here to give eye drops. Jazzy's status is far from him. After being warned by him, he didn't dare to rub him. However, he should be a little wary of Jazzy's rise. Besides, he looked down on that guy from the bottom of his heart before, "You know Aplus, now I'm annoyed that little singer who can't get rid of like chewing gum."

"Hey! Alicia, and Ms. Sloan!"

After a few words of chatting, Song Ya saw two workplace beauties appearing at the door of the lounge and laughed out loudly, "Come in! We are talking about the music circle in New York."

"Is that?" Alicia was in a good mood. She came in and took off her windbreaker and handed it to Linda. "Hello Linda, are you back to be an assistant? Where is Taraji?"

"No, I'm just here to stare at the boss's concert. Taraji is responsible for communicating with the director outside." Linda smiled and helped her hang up, "Congratulations to Mrs. Flock, oh, now I'm going to call the governor's wife. Ms. Sloan, give it to me too." She helped Sloan take off her coat again, "Is New York warmer than Chicago?"

"Yes." Alicia kindly reached out to Newman and Nas with a procedural smile that treated the voters, "Hello."

"Hello Mrs. Flock." Newman stood up and shook her hands.

Nas had to shake hands with confusion on his face. Maybe he thought the governor's wife was nickname, and Newman took him away with a wink.

"You don't have to come to Alicia at this time. My job can be handled after Peter's inauguration next month." Song Ya lay down and stretched out her fist.

She was stunned for a moment, then smiled playfully, learning to punch, "He is him, I am me, I like to do my own work, not the so-called governor's wife, female independence, right? Sloan."

"Hmm." Ms. Sloan's eyes were sharp, "Are you looking for me? aplus."

"Yes, Linda, close the door. You guys go out first, go out." Song Ya sent all the staff away, changed to a more serious attitude and said in a low voice: "Federal Representative Langel has come to me. Your next task is to help him and the inner city broadcaster maintain the operation rights of the Apollo Theater according to our previous gentleman agreement with Langel."

"Is that fast? I thought Giuliani would have to wait until his second term before he could do it," Ms. Sloan asked.

"It's not Giuliani. It seems that a jazz singer was arrested for selling Aoi in the theater. The Elephant Party members of the New York City Council took the opportunity to attack. This is not the first time that the proposal has been made to revoke the operating rights, you know." Song Ya said: "Rangel's foundation has also been caught in some other financial dealings."

After New York was replaced by the Imaging Party, the city government always wanted to take back the operation rights of the Apollo Theater from Manhattan's help, rather than being fetched by inner city broadcasters with cheap leases.

Song Ya spent more than 30 million yuan to invest in the inner city broadcasting company and was just elected as chairman. Of course, she had to try her best to maintain this most stable profit point, not to mention that he and Langer also had a series of complex interest exchanges involving the commander and the party whip Underwood for this matter.

"Then the 'battlefield' is mainly concentrated on the New York City Council, right?"

Ms. Sloan learned about some situations, "It seems that the problem is not serious, we can hold on."

"Yes, uh, at least that's what Langel said to me." Song Ya was not very familiar with the specific details of the new situation in her busy schedule. "You are my political consultant, this is your job, please contact him."

“Ok.”

Sloan found out his address book and started calling to contact him on the spot.

"Where do I have? What tasks do I have?"

Alicia looked at Sloan with her hair without distraction, tweaked her hair and sat opposite Song Ya, "I heard from Dilai that DTS's listing is not a success? Sorry, I didn't pay much attention to this because I helped Peter assist in the selection."

"It fell below the issue price on the first day, but...it doesn't matter, just raise money."

Song Ya waved her hand and joked, "I don't dare to ask you to help now, Mrs. Governor."

"It's okay, you are a big client of me and my law firm. You're obeying everything." She raised her feet and changed to a comfortable sitting position.

Haha, this woman, "Okay, it's the inner city broadcaster..."

After becoming chairman, the inner city broadcaster's divestiture and spin-off of non-performing assets were completed by Linda, Dr. Chen, Morningstar Company and Alicia's law firm. They were all boring business matters, and the two had a long talk one by one.

Meanwhile, Sony Building, "Uh, before the meeting continues, I will announce a message about the company and me personally." Sony Electronics North Mi president Shulhof announced to the sides of the conference table with a serious expression, "Due to physical reasons, I will retire on the 31st of this month and will no longer hold any management position in the company in the future..."

The bomb immediately detonated the conference room, all of which were storms. Everyone used their seats to adjust their seats to digest the news and tried their best not to show their dew.

Daniel put his finger on his lips and looked at Mothura opposite the conference table. The other party was very calm, more calm than himself, and he showed no expression at all.

Schulhof is protected by the father of CD Nobuo Oga, and the current Sony Ceo Oga Nobuo does not like him. This is no longer a secret within the company. It seems that Oga Nobuo finally compromised with Oga Nobuo Oga, or even Daiga himself loses power? It still needs to be observed.

And Mothura is close to Schulhof again. Now Schulhof is gone, so...

Daniel carefully considered the pros and cons. In fact, Shulhoff was not good for him to leave. After all, he finally decided to be the president of Sony Columbia Records, and he was the one who transferred Motula to Sony Entertainment. He was foolish, conceited, lacking energy, and did not like any changes. He was still a layman in the record industry and could almost be considered a "perfect boss."

But Sony should have changed him long ago. The book has been dragged to the present day, so he had to wait and see who the next successor would be! Life always has to continue, Daniel comforted himself.

"About Sony Columbia Records' response to online piracy, Daniel Grass will introduce it to us..." The lengthy meeting continued, and when Schulhof was about to end, he brought up the agenda of the record industry.

"Okay, at present, the six major record companies have agreed to form a response alliance, led by Universal Music owner Mr. Bronfman Jr., and the first meeting will be in..." Daniel cleared his throat and began to state.

"Hahaha! Alicia, you can enjoy Dilai's performance later. That A+ Audio CEO is a crappy third-rate rapper."

More and more concert-related personnel have begun to take their seats. Song Ya's affairs have been repeatedly interrupted by directors who come to report the situation and communicate details. They can only choose to talk about some political gossip. For example, the two parties failed to reach a federal budget last month, and the federal government was forced to close for five days. On the fifth of this month, they continued to thank guests behind closed doors. The chief and the book negotiated, all the events on Pearl Harbor anniversary were suspended, and I don't know when it will be...

When sending Alicia and Sloan out, Song Ya made a happy face, "Linda, send them to the VIP box, be careful not to let the reporter see it."

"I understand." Linda led the way.

"See aplus back." Alicia quietly made a helpless expression on Sloan's back in front.

Are you disliked the light bulb? Do you still want to find an opportunity to be here? Wow, are you that anxious? Song Ya couldn't help but be even more happy, "If you have food in the private room, please feel free to Alicia..."

Another meeting was held at Microsoft headquarters, and the atmosphere was very depressing. Bill Gates hosted, and he was thinking to a document: "First, while browsing the Internet, I could hardly find a file format that Microsoft can support. I spent more than ten hours, but I didn't see a single word document, avi file, exe or file format that we can support. I saw a large number of quicktime files, and all film studios used them to provide movie trailers, which belongs to Apple. Second, another popular file format on i is pdf, and even the IRS provides tax forms in pdf format. At present, html is still somewhat limited, so pdf is a standardized alternative, and adobe is investing heavily in this technology. Quicktime and pdf are very popular on the Internet because they are cross-platform and can be obtained for free by readers."

Now he is not the image of the next door technology home when introducing his products. He put down the file with a gloomy face. "This is the content of the internal email "Internet Tide" I sent in May. It is the end of the year and our situation on the Internet has not improved at all! My article at that time also wrote: 'A competitor on the Internet is scape, their browsers dominate, with a share of 70%.' And now! Their share is 85%, or even higher! We are being ridiculed by everyone."

Others in the conference room were silent. At this time, only Ballmer dared to follow up. "Now we see that every online service can add additional value to the Internet. We need to keep its overall value highlighted to attract users to overcome cost considerations, truly join in, and let the Internet reach the critical value of explosive growth. We were a little conservative about the time point to reach this critical value, but now everything is not too late. We have caught up and surpassed our opponents more than once in the business competition, and this time it is not a problem."

"Internet services are very cheap, even free." Someone said: "The ordinary version of Netscape Browser is distributed in the form of shareware, and it can be used normally even if users do not make money. The profit prospects of this industry are still unclear..."

"They have a good sales situation for the server software on the enterprise intranet. They have a set of authorized servers and operating systems that are used with Sun's servers and operating systems. They are negotiating the deployment contracts with many large companies such as AOL and Ge. If we don't do anything, it will be too late." Ballmer shook his head.

“aplus!aplus!aplus!aplus!”

As night comes, the stage lights are shining, and the audience has all been seated. They are basically young people. They have taken advantage of the fact that they have not yet started and have time to entertain themselves, slogans, and some of the fans of the fan club have also brought their own glow sticks endorsed by Song Ya to wave, "You want to want me!" The female fans shouted excitedly in a crying voice.

‘Bang!’ Fireworks suddenly burst out over the stage, and the screams of the audience reached a high point.

"3,2,1!gogogo!" The director began to urge him in his ears. Song Ya took a deep breath, and fisted one by one with the staff guarding the side of the stage like basketball players before they came on the court, and then rushed out.

"Ah! Ah! Aplus I'm here!" The girls in the 'Stop' area directly in front of the stage began to get crazy.

"Hello, New York." He said in a bass voice to the microphone.

Nas wore sunglasses and went on stage with Al and others. He spoke fluently, "yo, ladies and gentlemen, today is my brother Aplus's first large-scale concert in New York. What do you want to hear him sing the first song??" He pointed the microphone downstairs.

The audience shouted in a mess.

"Hmm!? Breaking louder!" Nas shouted, "Breaking louder!"

"empire state of mind!" The audience finally agreed and shouted in unison. It seemed that New Yorkers still like this song the most.

"Okay, here is remember the name! Thank you!" Nas signaled to the band, and the accompaniment sounded.

The brothers and the others started singing lively on the stage, and they were so excited on and off the stage.
To be continued...
