Hey, it's so exciting, Song Ya couldn't help but start thinking...
"Is the studio contacted? The same, Hollywood?" Larry asked.
"Well, the studio, set, and shooting team are still contracted to Columbia Pictures in Hollywood, and the relevant sketches have been sent before." Song Ya replied.
"See you in Hollywood?"
After communicating all the preparatory work, Larry basically has no doubts. He is old, his health is good and bad, and he has no special career pursuits. The last film was produced twelve years ago, and there are not many highlights in his career. which performed.
Just like Zach Schneider, who has no qualifications, this is why Song Ya chose Larry. Because of the existence of the Apocalypse MV, he can just copy it honestly. He doesn't want to cooperate with directors who have too much desire for control.
"See you in Hollywood."
Send Larry away, and then let Goodman and Yeremov be responsible for negotiating choreography contracts for BeautifulGirls, Showmethemoney, WanttoWantMe with Anne Fletcher’s agent, and Song Ya and Roberto Klevell return to the office Talked about other things.
"Is the NAS album released in the second half of the year?" Song Ya received certain news from NAS, "Help me take care of him at Sony Columbia Records."
"No problem, but I can't actually help much."
Roberto Klevell readily agreed ~www.mtlnovel.com~ His first professional quality is good, and he is not small in Queens, and there are bosses such as Rakim, so we don't need to worry too much. "
This time he came mainly for investment, "You said you want to build a clothing brand?"
"Yes, cheap clothing for young people, mainly pure cotton, and foundry in China. I contacted some clothing stores in the black, Chinese, and Shilla areas of cities. It was probably on the discount shelf at the door of the store. Ten knives and twenty knives. I have sent Riese and Song Asheng to China to inspect the factory."
Song Yada gave a brief introduction, "Do you have any intentions?"
"Is the pricing strategy so cheap?" Roberto Klevell was surprised. "You really don't go the ordinary way. The clothes in trendy stores run by celebrities are much more expensive than outside."
"That's different. If all the raw materials and labor are handed over to Huaguo, I will not be able to obtain many certifications and other qualifications here, and I want to make the urban poor who live in poverty can afford quality and design. Affordable clothes are even an act of giving back to the public."
Song Ya spoke beautifully, looking like a saint.
"Then count me, and David Cole, Miss Kelly should also be interested in investing." Roberto Clerville thought for a while and said, "I can also help in the Hispanic neighborhood."
"Mimi is... uh, well, Miss Kelly is willing to pay too? Why didn't she tell me."
"I told her when I came to Chicago for dinner, she was very interested."
Roberto Clavier asked, "So you agree to accept our investment?"
"Of course, how could I be unwilling to have someone help share the risk."
"Uh……"
"Haha, just kidding, don't take Roberto to your heart."
Chicago 1990 Chapter 293: Lost throne
It seems that there is no rush for the clothing OEM. The more affordable styles you can produce, the more you can reduce the cost. It is difficult to find a factory that can take orders in Guanghua, and you have to communicate with the designer. Styles, pattern making, samples sent back and forth, formal production, and finally sold in the U.S. market. I don’t know when it will be delayed.
"Anyway, universities can't go to law school directly. Just forget about undergraduate clothing design. Does the University of Chicago have this major?" Song Ya muttered.
"The budget for Fergie's first production is initially set at 1.8 million, and Al's 500,000 will be released in the first half of 1993."
In mid-June, he gave up high-intensity publicity, and the joint publicity between the east and west coasts and the south was also removed. He began to focus on company management and preparations for MV shooting. "Mon said that his album will not be listed until 1994. Join the plan."
There are more and more singers under its umbrella, and related management capabilities will keep up. For example, in the current "Deep Sea" recording studio, the time when A+ records are not used is also used for external rental. The rental price per day is about 1,000 dollars, and the internal price is 8. Hundreds of dollars, without any financial pressure, my own singer will definitely tend to dominate this high-level recording studio for personal use whenever he has the opportunity.
After receiving the news that Fergie was about to post his first special, Al suddenly came to Song Ya and said that he also wanted to post. He often mixes with Big A. In addition to being a guest on the radio, the two of them also come and go in Chicago’s black music circle from time to time. At the party, the friendship is getting wider and wider. As two big-selling Rappers, everyone still recognizes his status. There are more and more people who favor him, so I also accepted a lot of songs in private.
According to his design, the first major is of course rap. The main feature is his old skills: hip-hop beat-box. Now this style is not popular anymore. Dion Wilson, Dile, Yeremov, etc. Not optimistic. Song Ya didn’t have any songs for him. After all, Song Ya who could sing apocalypse songs could sing as well. But after all, he was an old brother and a contracted singer. Since he wanted to release his first album, Song Ya still wanted For help, the production cost of 500,000 yuan should be accounted for.
Dion Wilson will be the main producer of Fergie's album. He will help Fergie record five rap singles. The score will be collected, plus some old songs that have bought sampling rights. He will mix and arrange the songs. .
Song Ya temporarily appointed the producer of two songs, ihateuiloveu female solo version, and LondonBridge, which was not released.
Di Lai is responsible for two or three songs. He is in charge of the popular direction. He also uses the collected tunes or the tunes composed by himself.
The C+C Music Factory co-founded by Roberto Clever and David Cole provides a friendly production of a popular genre.
In terms of lyrics, Fergie would also make some of the lyrics, and then Dion Wilson and Song Ya and others helped to modify and polish it. White girls sang hip-hop. Many such as street life, gangs, violence, etc. could not be involved, and Fergie had insufficient life experience. , The lyrics are generally "I am the brightest girl at the dance" and the old lady makes a phone call and Pudala delivers clothes to her door. Consumerism bragging about parties, carnivals and star luxury lives.
In fact, this is what rappers basically sing, which is much healthier than the guns, poisons, and women in the songs of male singers.
Since Song Ya promised to send out special birthday presents in March next year, Fergie is about to get busy now.
Fergie, who took the reassurance pills, naturally "thanks a thousand graces", but Song Ya was in trouble here.
"Sampling rights are only, are they so lion open?"
Song Ya secretly went to the copyright unit and searched the melody of LondonBridge. The release of this song was a sample of DowntoThe Nightlub by TowerofPower in the early 1970s (the sampling rights of the apocalypse songs will not be repeated in the following description, and it will be done by default). The current APLUS is different now. I heard that it sold the sampling rights to A+ records before, and then the combination of the Grammy annual single EmpireStateOfMind produced by Song Ya regretted that his intestines were blue. Now the copyright owner outside heard that Song Ya wanted to buy it. Sampling rights, all have the idea of a hard knock, for fear of being missed again.
"Didn't you say it was for Fergie?" he asked Dile.
"By the way, the quotation received by Dion Wilson for buying samples is very fair, but almost all copyright owners have added one. Once it is used on your single or adapted by you, the quotation must be greatly increased and participate in subsequent sales. Divide."
