Chicago 1990

　　 When I got home, Halle's phone was lit up on the pager, and Song Ya called back.

　　 "Have you met John?" She asked carefully. It should be John who had chatted with her about the encounter between the two.

　　 "I didn't say anything to him, don't worry."

　　 Song Ya has long known that Halle is very unrestrained. In order to get her own MV role, she didn’t know how many slepts. I thought it was nothing to play friendly matches between the two, but seeking the role to cheat Kaizi to pay? It seems a bit too much, but I will stay away from it in the future.

　　 "There is no..."

　　 "Uh, Halle, I'm a little busy now, let's talk about it next time, okay?"

　　 Song Ya hangs up.

　　 Harley would not call again if she was smart enough to get rid of this episode. Today’s surprise was that he got Michael Ovitz’s contact number. Early the next morning, he went to Goodman alone.

　　 After contracting his own A+ record, A+ audio, A+ copyright and investment management company legal affairs, Goodman simply moved the law firm to the same building as the recording studio and concentrated on providing services.

　　 His consulting business is also developing well. Song Ya saw several people sitting in line outside the office.

　　 Of course, he doesn't have to line up.

　　 "OK, hit it." Goodman picked up another microphone.

　　 Song Ya repeated the points listed by Goodman in his hand, took a deep breath and dialed the phone, "I'm looking for Mr. Ovitz...APLUS...no appointment."

　　 waited a few minutes for the transfer, and the phone rang an awkward "Nihao, head to".

　　 "...Mr. Ovitz?"

　　 "Hey, APLUS, why, don't you speak Chinese?" The other party laughed heartily, "How about my Chinese sentences? We are all Chicagoans, can you be considered a mind?"

　　 Song Ya just realized that he said "Hello fellow", "It's very standard, Mr. Ovitz."

"Okay, let's not laugh, you join, an agent, two co-agents, film and television music are included in our CAA packaging service, some minor troubles, we can also settle for you." Ovitz offered the conditions. .

　　 Song Ya checked against Goodman's list.

　　Except for brokers like Hayden, whose most affairs are handled by him, joint brokers were invented by CAA to change the drawbacks of traditional brokers. In the past, brokers and clients provided one-to-one services. First, it was easy to deceive and arbitrage between the client and the employer, between the client and the brokerage company, and the second was that they often cooperated with the client to hide from the brokerage company and betrayed. With a joint broker, not only can we provide more manpower and better services, but also increase the cost of betrayal. A single broker will not be able to set off a big storm.

　　Packaging service was also invented by CAA. For example, if a film company wants to make a movie, it has to communicate with various brokerage companies. It is very cumbersome and time-costly to recruit directors, actors, and recruiters. And if it’s all packaged to CAA, CAA can select the entire team from its own customers and give it to the film company at one price, simple and convenient. Entering the packaging means that the opportunity is greatly increased. CAA has meat, maybe you can have a mouthful of soup.

The service spirit of CAA extends even wider. For example, it will use social resources to solve all kinds of troubles for stars, because stars are generally people who have achieved a class transition, and they have many shortcomings than the old upper class. For example, children want to find famous schools. CAA can help if you don’t have a strong recommendation letter, or if you have trouble without a trusted doctor or lawyer.

　　 Song Ya saw Goodman show up a piece of paper with a percent sign drawn on it.

　　 "What about commission?" he asked.

　　 "Nine percent," Ovitz replied.

　　 Goodman wrote three more letters on the paper, WMA.

　　 "Can I use this condition to negotiate a price with William Morris?"

　　 "Haha, please, if you have paid attention to the trends in Hollywood, you should know that they were beaten by me."

　　 "But the music circle."

　　 "We also have many artists in the music circle, such as Madonna."

　　 "Okay, Mr. Ovitz, I will think about it again."

　　 "Yes, my conditions will always be valid."

　　 Ending the call, the two put down the microphones, "How is it?" he asked Goodman.

"Look for an opportunity to talk to William Morris. The current service of William Morris is not comparable to CAA, but they are improving, and among the songwriters in the music industry, the veteran William Morris is still very strong. basis."

Goodman now knows the entertainment circle very well, "Since Ovitz is talking directly, people like him don’t have the time to bargain with you at 1%, 0.5%, and 9% should be the final offer. If Reese’s offer can be cheaper...it depends on how you choose, cheaper, William Morris, better service, CAA."

　　 "How is this person like Ovitz?" Song Ya asked. The other party just took the initiative to show Chinese and he liked him very much, at least it means that he really values ​​himself.

　　 "The top agent, in order to make a business, can climb up to the conference table to dance to customers. He is also a top businessman. His many innovative designs have made CAA a rising star a towering tree."

Goodman replied: "Of course he would be terrible when he showed his fangs. Also, he likes oriental culture, Chinese and books. I heard that he is familiar with Sun Tzu's Art of War. CAA even found Feng Shui when building its headquarters. The husband is helpful. He is a good friend of the book. Sony bought Columbia and Panasonic bought MCA. He has made great efforts. You must know that it can affect the big business of the two governments. At present, the whole country is full of hatred for the book. It is not easy to make these two businesses."

　　 "Mikan?"

Song Ya suddenly came up with these two words in his mind, but immediately threw off the idea with a smile, and reached a large acquisition of several billion dollars, and the commission alone could get tens of millions of dollars. And which country is the two acquisitions? It's hard to say that it will benefit more.

　　 Anyway, there is still time before the brokerage contract expires. Song Ya is not in a hurry. He does not even plan to pass the CAA offer to William Morris. He has to wait for the other party to take the initiative~www.ltnovel.com~Uh..."

Goodman saw that he got up and wanted to leave. He hesitated, and said, "The agency will not be polite to clients who change jobs. Be careful that they collect your illicit materials. Of course, you are still young, creative, and have no idol baggage. There is no big contradiction with them either, they generally don't do it that way."

　　 Song Ya stopped and thought for a while, he was not afraid of William Morris, but William Morris should be afraid of himself. After all, he didn't have the burden of idols, but Mila had them, and they had high hopes for Mila. As for the black material, I am more careful than Hayden, what black material can I have?

　　 "Thanks, Chuck."

　　 He stretched out his fist and touched Goodman behind his desk.

　　 In any case, there is still half a month's publicity schedule to run. When he is on the way, he will discuss the lyrics of ‘Remember TheName’ with Walter Afanagif.

"You can say that this song is a tribute to Jordan, but it's best not to mention Jordan's name in the lyrics, mentioning him, there will be a lot of trouble in the follow-up, Jordan's agent David Falk is not a good stubborn." Walt Said.

　　 "The manager? Is that great?" Song Ya is very sensitive to the word manager now, "and my song is touted Jordan."

"Very powerful. Have you heard what two Davids said? The other David is NBA commissioner David Stern. You think you are touting Jordan, and the other party may think you are using him to hype. Don't take any risks." Walter warned.

"Ok."

　　 Song Ya originally wanted to elevate the style of the whole song from talking about the internal affairs of the rap group to the sports level, but now that this idea is a bit problematic, maybe the skeleton of the original word is very good.

　　 "In that case, it won't change much." He made a decision.
