Chapter 171 Black Grandet
That's when the phone rang, and it was Mariah Carey.
"Hello, mimi." Song Ya could only answer her call first.
"Wow wow wow wow." Mariah Carey chuckled lightly, "APLUS...ah? You're good at keeping secrets, and you even say you're best friends. So you keep everything from others."
"Wait, what's the matter with this sour guilt question?" Song Ya complained in her heart, and replied, "Uh, it's not convenient for me to tell you about this now, mimi, can we talk about it in a few days? Now I'm in a very tense PR situation."
"OK, I won't bother you, M Y F R I E N D~" Mariah Carey hung up the phone with a long tone.
"..."
Contacting Mira's agent, he first scolded Mira's father and said that it was being resolved.
At ten o'clock, Mr. Jovovich issued a simple statement through his investment company's legal adviser, saying that his remarks were misled by reporters and taken out of context, which was not true, and he had already separated from Mira's mother, so he didn't know much about the mother and daughter. current actual situation.
The family of them should have communicated with each other. Although his words of "should have broken up a long time ago" were difficult to wash away, this response was not bad, at least to avoid Mira's responsibility for breach of contract.
"Well, the current situation is: the relationship between you and Mira is basically recognized by the public as a fact, and the attacks on her continue, but Mira's family will pretend to be dead until the movie is released in the early morning of the 9th, and then negotiate with Revlon. A solution to end this matter."
Hayden reported on the latest progress, "Mira's future in Hollywood and her fan base will suffer a major blow, but that's the only way to go. Fortunately, the fashion industry is very tolerant of the chaotic love life of female models, and William Morris will start first Fight back, and then wait for the next node, which is when her first music album is released, to see if she can turn the situation around and become popular again."
"You William Morris didn't protect her well! What did you plan to surpass Brooke Shields and compete with Madonna?" Song Ya was very dissatisfied, "Poor Mira, she is only sixteen years old, and she has already experienced ups and downs in the entertainment industry."
"You should take pity on yourself first..."
Taraji walked in and threw Song Ya a tabloid that still smelled of ink, New York Entertainment.
"?"
Song Ya turned to the inside page she had folded,
'Black Grandet? APLUS's personal life has a big bottom! '
"What The FXXK!"
‘Hearing Milla Jovovich’s father called APLUS Black Grandet, the editor of this newspaper was very interested in this name, and I couldn’t help but plan to be more serious...’
Grandet is a classic character written by the writer Balzac. He is greedy, vicious, cunning, and stingy, and his most well-known trait is stinginess. So is APLUS a stingy man as described by Mr. Jovovich? What about people? '
'The answer is: yes. '
'According to the information provided by an employee of a record company who did not want to be named, APLUS became rich overnight after creating multi-platinum sales singles such as Second-Hand Store and To De Klerk, but he still chose to rent for a long time in downtown Chicago. In an ordinary high-rise apartment, he and his family of five shared a cheap car made by Benzi. He and his agent fly economy class to and from New York, often wear second-hand clothes, stay in three-star hotels, and tip the lowest category. '
‘When he sang in a nightclub, he always took the opportunity to ask for free drinks and food, and settled the dinner for a group of people there, and never touched any paid items in the store. '
'APLUS also sang in a casino in Las Vegas for three days. According to a local waiter, he only paid a tip of $100 in total. Three days later, he took the 200,000 paid by the casino intact The chip reward is cashed, oh, no, it is one hundred and ninety-nine thousand and nine hundred. '
‘He settled his New York home in Tribeca, away from the Upper West Side where stars and artists gather, and the motivation is naturally that the housing prices there are cheaper...’
"Fart! I can buy a house in the West Side just by spending the renovation money in Tribeca!"
Song Ya was so angry that she crumpled up the newspaper and threw it out, "I didn't leave with so many chips in Las Vegas, I gave 20,000 to the people around me, and lost more than 10,000!"
"This angle is very good, especially for stars like you who can't find black material. Now that consumerism is prevalent, stinginess is not a good character design, especially the black group. They don't like stingy hip-hop stars." Heidento He analyzed with his chin.
"It must have something to do with SBK. I only wore second-hand clothes when I first arrived in New York. I was not famous at that time. Other companies would not notice me and call Daniel for me."
Song Ya ordered: "There is also the matter of Las Vegas. I only tipped one waitress a hundred dollars. She was found by the entertainment manager of the casino. It is easy to find out. Let the casino check whether she is With whom did the news come out, and the guest information was leaked, which is a great damage to the reputation of the casino."
"Okay, but you have to look at it calmly. This matter may be the independent action of the gossip tabloids. The situation is still unclear." Hayden persuaded.
"Go and call!" Song Ya yelled at him.
"Okay, okay." Hayden picked up his phone and walked out.
"Taraji, you call Donovan, discuss with William Morris a draft of the response to the media, and then send it to me for review." Song Ya sent Taraji also.
"FXXK!" He yelled and beat the boss's desk to vent his anger. He had a premonition that this matter would not end easily. If it was only the news from SBK, the tabloid would not have collected Las Vegas information so quickly, and it would have given the facts Twisted just right.
"Yo...Bro, are you okay?" DeLay and Al walked in concerned.
"It's nothing, maybe I'm too nervous..."
Song Ya squeezed out a smile and fist bumped them.
Di Lai walked towards the TV, and the smile on Song Ya's face gradually disappeared.
A small local TV station in Detroit interviewed Little Lowry's ex-girlfriend, the daughter of a famous Detroit music player, "Aplus and Mira, I have known each other for a long time, a long time ago, when I was with Little Lowry Together...ah! I remembered, last year in the NBA Western Conference semifinals, when the Pistons eliminated the Bulls, they hugged each other wherever they went."
"This bitch, the first album and Little Lowry failed to sell 20,000 copies of the hype. I found an opportunity to start taking your heat." Di Lai scolded.
"How would you rate APLUS? Hehe, thank you for the invitation..."
The black girl talked to the camera, "You know what? I laughed for about five minutes when Mira's father called him a black grandet in the news. It was so accurate and hit the nail on the head! I remember When I first met him, at the Nike in the Palace of Auburn Hills... sorry I didn't mean to advertise, uh... in a shoe brand's specialty store, he hesitated for a long time in front of the new product wall, and finally decided to He chose two pairs of out-of-season sneakers for himself and Mira, and they were heavily discounted."
"Oh, Man..." After she finished speaking, she helped the reporter and laughed exaggeratedly.
"Bichi!" Song Ya spat out a word coldly.
"Then when little Lowry was with you, how did he evaluate APLUS?" the reporter asked.
Even if the black girl knew the importance, "Uh...emmmmmm...it's not convenient for me to say this, sorry."
"Is it because of the background of Little Lowry and APLUS?" The reporter induced her.
"NO! No, no, I don't know what background they have." The black girl waved her hands again and again, "I'm sorry, I'm going to record a song, my second album will be..."
The scene was cut back to the studio in an instant, "Okay, this column will continue to follow up on this matter, and a commercial will follow."
The irony is that the advertisement is for AJ shoes, some of the pictures are taken from Jordan's short documentary, and the background music is still Song Ya's Remember The Name.
"Little Lowry probably didn't get involved. This bitchiness is pure enthusiasm." DeLay analyzed.
"Yes, otherwise little Lowry will match her lines with her in advance and reveal some other materials." Song Ya also agreed.
"Daniel is on a business trip in the UK, so I can't get in touch with him now." Hayden came in and said, "Mila is a signed singer of SBK, they may plan to focus the gossip on you who signed with Sony Columbia, I have already contacted Donovan Yes, he promised to coordinate with you and Mira to act together, at least to ensure that SBK and Sony Columbia will not secretly manipulate public opinion for their own singers and attack each other."
"Cheat ghosts!"
Song Ya scolded: "Daniel must know. The source of many revelations attacking me and Mira is SBK. That Robert must be him. Only he has a grudge against Mira and me. By the way!" He snapped his fingers, " I have a piece of shit on him too, we have to get Daniel out, and if he doesn't show up, he wants to watch it, and that's not okay."
He called Michelle, "Hey...yeah, I'm ok, nothing major, it's just some gossip... I remember you sent me a fax about the discrimination incident at SBK , yes...can you still find it? Okay, I want you to do me a favor..."
In the afternoon, Song Yazheng and Taraji were polishing and responding to the draft, and the noise downstairs suddenly became louder.
He looked down and saw a large group of reporters forming a circle, wrapping a woman in the middle. In the distance, an OB van slowly drove over.
"M-FXXK! What's the matter?"
Song Ya hurriedly sent Big A's younger brother down to inquire.
"Uh, that girl told the reporter that her father disappeared after being taken away by your bodyguards, and has been missing for half a month." Big A's younger brother came up to report.
"What's her father's name?" Song Ya was really panicked now.
"Frank Gallagher."
