Chicago 1990 - Chapter 1489

“If Alicia really wants to call me in the future, let him use this.”

In June, when Alicia’s little Jewish public relations consultant Eli visited, Song Ya took out a plastic box from the drawer.

“What is this?” Eli looked at and asked, “Mobile phone?”

“Nonsense, of course it’s a cell phone.”

Cassidy’s warning should be heeded. Song Ya said impatiently: “Safety comes first.”

“OK, I understand.”

Eli quickly understood, “Thanks.” Put the phone in the bag.

With the media’s attacks on the Patriot Act and the Homeland Security Act in the election year, Americans are becoming more and more anxious about privacy issues. When there is a market, there will be business opportunities. A small communications operator took the lead in launching a cheap contract machine. The card, number, and one hundred dollars of phone bills can be taken away by the purchaser without leaving any identity information.

In order to be as cheap as possible, the packaging of the mobile phone is extremely simple, and the body is also an OEM imported from China. It has no other functions except for making calls and sending and receiving text messages.

“I heard you plan to leave Disney?” Eli asked.

Song Ya didn’t want to answer his question, waved his hand and then continued to read the report.

“OK, then you are busy, I won’t bother.”

Eli left lightly, and Old Mike closed the door.

“McDi Santa, and his wife and a pair of children live in an upscale neighborhood not far from Beverly Hills…”

Old Mike has found the target person and showed Song Ya the secret photos taken during this period. “Franklin is trying to gain his trust.”

“This bastard!”

Song Ya was opening the door of a luxury car in the photo, and it was tickling at one of the killers who looked like five people and six people, “Where does he get the money to live such a generous life?”

“After Hines died, he organized a small criminal gang, which seemed to have quite a lot of illegal income.”

Old Mike replied: “Dave Norton said Hines had been providing him with funds before.”

“They still want to attack me?” Song Ya was most worried about living so close to Beverly Hills.

“Perhaps, but even if it did, with Hines’ death, McGrady Santa was out of control and it is unlikely to continue the mission.”

Old Mike said: “Hines is not a person who will miss old love. After the shooting, he even took off his pants and fart to help McGrady Santa feign death. Then McGrady Santa should have his important handle in his hands, otherwise he would be caught early. He fell silent.”

“Um.”

Now that he has found someone, Song Ya wants to kill this McGrady Santa. It is very simple. To save his life is to collect evidence. When their group did it to themselves, Hines was after all the top of the FBI New York branch, and many things were inconvenient. To come forward, for example, Andre Sanchez temporarily confessed the true identity of the other group who killed Anthony Pelicano of Hollywood Eye, maybe McDi Santa knew it.

There is also the whereabouts of another gunman, Trevor, who also needs to land on this McDee Santa.

Song Ya groaned and walked to the window. Below the A+ Records headquarters is the scene where he was shot.

“The Eagle County sexual assault case of Lakers star Kobe Bryant was settled today. It is believed that Kobe paid the waitress at least five million dollars…”

The local Los Angeles media on the TV is broadcasting news.

Five million, for a top black basketball superstar, it is worth buying a safety.

“Your friends on the east and west coasts seem to be fighting again.” Old Mike said after seeing the news.

“Follow them.”

Orlando Anders and KeefeeD, who were suspected of participating in the murder of 2PAC, were retaliated and killed by Sughnet. In 2002, on the birthday of boxing champion Ali, Sughnet also reached a settlement with the bragging father, but peace was only It lasted for more than half a year. At the end of 2002, the bragging father dug up Pooche, a well-known gunman who was suspected of shooting Biggie, and sent someone to shoot him ten shots from behind while Pooche was riding a motorcycle. Pooche was killed on the spot.

Sugnett naturally wouldn’t let it go. He killed the bragging daddy’s lame ally in Atlanta. Some time ago, the blood gang killed VonZIP, a New York gang-related music producer.

Because VonZIP is KeefeeD’s next home in the 毐品 business, it is generally considered to be the middleman who brags the old man and kills the 2PAC gunman.

But VonZIP is not a small person. He is the backbone of New York’s lame gang and the former security supervisor of the bragging father. He is also one of the record label owners of Damon Dash’s girlfriend Alia, so he is also a partnership of Damon Dash and Jazzy. people.

The East Coast gang rap circle and the lame gang can no longer pretend to be dead against Sugnet, who has been on the offensive, and the war is about to break out again.

Song Ya doesn’t want to and doesn’t need to mix up those low street grievances, just keep the necessary attention. At the moment, he cares most about business, such as Walkman, music store, Disney, Warner, Gugou IPO…

‘The negotiations between General Electric NBC and Vivendi Universal have come to an end, and the two parties have reached an agreement that the entire transaction will be completed on September 1st…’

According to the information that Song Ya has, they will use NBC TV network to incorporate into the merger, but they do not need to spend much cash, but they can still occupy most of the shares and control of the new company.

In addition to Universal Pictures, Studios, and the American TV network, the French have to pay for their old homes: France’s Canal+ TV network and some other small media companies.

This is almost an unequal treaty, and I don’t know how GE and the French talked about it, or in other words, what methods they used to get the French to subdue…

But what is certain is that they don’t want Universal Music.

“Welcome, Mr. Kutaragi.”

Nobody wanted Universal Music. Other giants waiting for General Electric NBC to expand in the recording industry lost hope and had to find their own way. A few days later, Howard Stringer led all the senior executives of Sony North Mi to greet the visiting head office CEO at the airport. Ken Kutaragi and his party.

“Howard.”

Kutaragi is a technical madman, and he doesn’t like grand pomp as his predecessor Nobuyuki Idei. This time he came to New York mainly to negotiate with the strategic partner IBM’s headquarters. “Thanks…”

He quickly shook hands with Howard Stringer and others, and then got in the car together, “You said that BMG is willing to merge with Sony Columbia Records, right?”

“Yes, BMG’s parent company Bertelsmann is very difficult. I have no big doubts about the merger. I also think it is a good opportunity.”

It is the chain reaction of General Electric NBC’s rejection of Universal Music, and other giants have also taken action. Howard Stringer knows that the boss of the game console faction in front of him is all focused on the PS3 project, and will not be the same as the entertainment empire faction. The boss has a head-on conflict with himself. This opportunity must be used well. The two sides cannot maintain permanent peace.

He laughed and said: “The merger of our two companies happened to have not crossed the monopoly line of the North American government. The European countries also changed their laws not long ago. They originally wanted to pave the way for the merger of BMG and EMI, but the parent company of BMG, Bei Tasman prefers to work with us.”

“It sounds pretty good.”

Kutaragi also understands the general situation. The simple merger does not involve the use of Sony’s current tight cash, and he does not want to intervene.

“Yes, fifty to fifty. BMG has Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys, Super Boys, Justin Timberlake, Arthur Kid, Christina Aguilera and other popular singers. After we merge with them, we will have it. future.”

Howard Stringer praised the business.

“Well, I agree in principle.”

Kutaragi nodded frequently. The game industry needs to figure out what teenagers like, so he has to know a little bit about the popular elements and entertainment stars. He is not a complete layman.

“At the same time, we also intend to start negotiations with MGM.” Howard Stringer strikes while the iron is hot.

“MGM? They are very difficult now, right?” Kutaragi began to frown.

“Yes, Columbia Pictures needs to merge them to maintain their leading position in Hollywood.”

Howard Stringer said.

“In terms of funding…”

“We only need to provide a part of the funds, and the remaining international consortia are willing to share it.”

“Oh?” Takeru Kutaragi used a tone without expression.

“MGM owns the copyright library of more than 4,000 movies and more than 1,000 TV series. After Columbia Pictures acquires them, it will own nearly half of the film library resources in the U.S. market…”

Howard Stringer felt that the other party was raising his vigilance and that the book was really scared in Hollywood, so he said that the other party was concerned: “I have calculated that you can win MGM for less than five billion dollars. We have control of the upstream film library. After resources ~www.mtlnovel.com~ will have a very advantageous position when facing Microsoft XBOX occupying people’s living room plan.”

“I know, you had these plans as early as year zero, right?” Kutaragi asked.

“Yes, now the time has finally come. MGM has run out of water, and BMG’s parent company Bertelsmann had a decent business situation at that time.”

“Well, we can meet and discuss first.”

Kutaragi asked again: “Which companies are included in the composition of those international consortia?”

“Currently, Comcast, Providence, Texas Pacific TPG and Credit Suisse DLJ Commercial Bank have joined.” Howard Stringer replied.

“Comcast… OK.”

Kutaragi’s expression suddenly became vivid, “By the way, I heard that Jobs is also in New York? Coordinate and let me meet him?”

“no problem.”
