Chicago 1990

Chapter 21: Next week

   Song Ya can understand the motives of Al's ‘axis’, but he can’t agree. What’s wrong with being aggrieved? It’s a common social phenomenon to work with people you don’t like, and it’s the same in the United States. Such a large sum of money is in sight. You can earn it without earning others, but it will be cheaper than Pablo those people you hate. I am afraid that the beneficiaries will count the money and laugh at you stupidly. This makes sense. Don't understand?

   But he didn't want to persuade him anymore. If he persuaded Al, if one day he didn't control the actual use of a gun to sweep people, Tony's brother would still be a follower in front of Little Lori... Oh no, partner.

Safety first.

   In the second week, the DJs of Chicago Radio began to analyze the second-hand store’s song objectively and calmly after the second week, but the overall situation was still very high. Supermarkets, restaurants and other stores have successively included this song in the background music playlist, and familiar melody sounded in the students’ Walkman from time to time, especially in second-hand stores large and small. They loved this song and opened it directly. Infinite brainwashing cycle mode.

  In Illinois alone, the first batch of 7,000 cassettes was sold out in about ten days, and the subsequent 10,000 cassettes have been restocked.

Old Joe and Pablo were very encouraged, and put the next step of publicity directly on the Greater New York area in the Northeast..., the core area of ​​the U.S. recording industry. They plan to travel to New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Baltimore and Washington in six days. City, directly arched the album of Lori II into the TOP200 bulletin board, which is the top position of the weekly album sales chart.

   Song Ya feels that the song "Own" is already on the eve of the sky.

   However, the reality is cruel.

   On Friday night, Tony called and they bumped their heads on the iron plate this time.

   At the first stop, they were lost in the endless ocean of media in New York. Two radio interviews and a small-scale performance did not even stir the slight waves.

   In Philadelphia, Old Joe was ridiculed in public by the well-known DJ Philby in an interview. Because Philby's words were too harsh, the two sides almost staged a full-fledged action outside the broadcast room.

   In Baltimore, when Little Lori performed in a nightclub, he was disturbed by an unknown rapper. The young and energetic man agreed to the impromptu battle request. Unexpectedly, he was speechless within a few rounds.

"on the stage?"

"On the stage, Little Lori was holding the microphone, his mouth was moving, but there was no sound at all. I felt his tears swirling in his eyes, and people were already shaking. I was about to rush up and punch the guy opposite. Get down, Pablo caught me."

   From Tony's description on the phone, Song Ya substituted himself to feel the embarrassment of Little Lori at the time, emmmm...the goose bumps were about to rise.

  More than that, the propaganda team also had problems internally. Old Joe and Pablo broke out in violent quarrels several times, and Lori was dissatisfied with the lack of physical strength of Old Morgan, which dragged down the progress of the whole group.

"Don't blame them, they are so tired. We have to sleep on the plane. We have to go to the airport when we get off the plane. We have to turn around and have time to eat and go to the toilet. In this state, everyone is in a bad mood. There’s something wrong with Joe’s propaganda strategy. Maybe we shouldn’t go to New York first, and the schedule shouldn’t be too tight... Well... Pablo said." Tony found a reason, "You don’t arrange anything else on Sunday, they I want to have a meeting with you."

   "All right..." Song Ya could say anything else, it was all grasshoppers on a boat.

  On Sunday, Song Ya called his agent Hayden to come to Old Joe Music.

However, the atmosphere of Lao Qiao Music today is a bit wrong. There are two black men standing outside the door, one of them is very vigilant to observe the surroundings, the other is responsible for searching Song Ya and Hayden, searching very carefully, opposite the vehicle at the entrance of the underground nightclub Also a lot more.

   "This job..." After entering the door, Hayden seemed to regret taking over Song Ya as a client.

   "It's okay, the gang should be reasonable." Song Ya can only comfort him like this.

Old Qiao’s office was full of people. Behind the boss’s desk, a thirty-year-old black guy with a scalp turban and a cigar in his mouth leaned lazily against the back of the chair, "Are you all here? Then? Let's start, you all go out." He waved.

Song Ya, who has more and more experience in life, can recognize the hidden meanings of the various flower headscarves in Nancheng, which is the same as the dead'ET', with the swash of'HellBobcat' on it, indicating that the name of the gang belongs to Hell Short The tail cat, and the six-pointed star pattern on the turban represents its submission to the larger gang GD, and then GD leads a gang alliance FN, Folk. FN is currently hostile to another gang alliance, PN, People.

  People walked away for more than half an instant, "Tony, you go out too." Pablo drove out Tony who was still stuck in place.

   "This white guy is?" The big guy pointed to Hayden.

   Song Ya replied: "He is my agent."

   "Is it my own?" the boss asked.

   "Uh..." Song Ya couldn't answer, so Pablo made a relief, "Hayden, go out too."

   "Okay, okay." Hayden didn't dare to breathe, so he went out quickly.

   There are only six people left in the room: Big Brother, Song Ya, Old Joe, Pablo, Little Lori and Old Morgan.

   "Let's get started, I don't know anything about the record industry. I'm just a shareholder and a mediator." It turns out that this big guy from Hell's Bobcat is a shareholder of Old Qiao Music, and may also be the backer of the gang for everyone present.

   "I request a substitution!"

   Little Lori fired the first shot, clearly pointing at Old Morgan, "Because of you, our schedule has been delayed for a whole day! You have repeatedly made mistakes on stage."

   "What can I do, I'm so old."

   Old Morgan obviously didn't want to give up such a good opportunity to make money, and retorted: "I'm just too tired. It's good to get through this period. It's impossible to always do high-intensity publicity."

   "You're tired of your mother, you are peeing too much! As soon as you get on the plane, you hold the bottle and blow, you old alcoholic!" Little Lori unceremoniously pierced the other party's lies.

   "Hey! Hey! Boy, respect it. You weren't born when I became popular! I won't be crying on stage!" Old Morgan's counterattack was sharp and vicious.

   "M-FXXX! You **** old guy!" Little Lori, who was trampled on the sore spot, suddenly became furious, and he rushed to the old Morgan like a spring.

   "Hey! Hey!" Old Joe and Pablo quickly separated them.

   Old Morgan didn't dare to irritate the other person any more, and looked at Old Joe pitifully.

   Old Joe eased his cheeks for him, "Morgan, you can't drink so much anymore..."

   "I, my fault, I swear that this kind of thing won't happen again" Old Morgan went softly down the ladder.

   "Pablo, aren't you their agent? What do you think?" The boss looked at Pablo~www.ltnovel.com~Do you accept the old Morgan's guarantee? "

"Old Morgan watched us grow up. I won't let him suffer." Pablo shrugged. "However, he can't keep up with the intensity of the album promotion period. You can find a saxophone player to replace it first, and then take the scene later. Let him come on during the show."

   "Pablo, you..." Old Morgan swallowed the **** again.

   "Old Morgan, do you agree to do this too?" the boss asked.

   Old Morgan nodded aggrievedly.

   "And then? What else?" The boss continued to control the field.

The next step is the conflict between Old Joe and Pablo. Pablo calmly said: “We messed up the publicity of the Greater New York area this time. I don’t think we can do this anymore. Some companies in the Big Six have contacted me and they are willing Help with the release, this is a win-win situation."

"Win-win? Haha..." Old Qiao sneered, "They will share 30% of the money when they enter the market. That's all our money. You have secretly negotiated with them behind my back. I haven't settled with you yet! "

"Don't be naive, Joe." Pablo said, "Don't you understand? What happened in New York this week is the meeting gift given to us by the Sixth National Congress. Otherwise, Phil in Philadelphia has collected our money. Risking your reputation for breaking the rules and regulations? No power behind tells him to never dare to do it! Small-scale distribution, no problem, national distribution, we can't do it without the Big Six, don't be short-sighted!"

   "Wait, wait." The big guy didn't understand, "Pablo, which six gangs are you talking about?"

   "Uh..." Pablo took a moment to explain, "It's not a gang, but six major record companies. They are Warner, Universal, Sony Columbia, Polygram, EMI and BMG (Bertelsman Music)."
