America: Starting with the acquisition of MGM

Chapter 22 Joshua’s Thoughts

MGM Tower, Eric's office.

"Gal Gadot?"

"Otherwise, who else could it be? I found her contact information on the day you handed over the task, and flew to Israel the day before yesterday, and met with her through her agent."

"But this girl is a bit difficult to deal with. To be precise, her family is difficult to deal with. She is only 17 years old now and is a minor. She cannot make her own decisions on many things. I don't want to bear the responsibility of abducting an underage girl."

Eric couldn't help laughing: "You are a master of picking up girls among us, how can you not get a little girl? Didn't I give you certain authority?"

"I was given, or I promised, the second female lead in a movie, an opportunity that no one could ask for, but she didn't take the bait, and her father was very stubborn and wouldn't accept it at all."

"Wait a minute, I have to figure out one thing. Does the resistance come from Gal Gadot or Gal Gadot's parents?"

Judy paused for a moment: "It comes more from her parents. They even doubt my identity. They have to meet the big boss to believe it. So I suggest you come to Israel in person, if you really value this chick." !”

Eric held his head with a headache. Now was the critical period. He didn't want to leave MGM. He didn't know how long it would take.

But Gal Gadot is really a tempting fruit, and I would be sorry for myself if I didn’t pick it.

After thinking for a moment, Eric said: "What is Gal Gadot's family background? Have you done any research?"

"The time was too short, so I just briefly learned about it. Her ancestors were European Jews. They became refugees during World War II. Starting from her grandfather's generation, they fled to Israel. The family conditions are good, but they are not from a wealthy family.

"Well, are her grandparents still alive?"

"Grandpa is still here and is not young anymore. I visited her home."

"I know, just keep staring. I will fly to Israel as soon as possible, but I still hope you can capture her."

"Do your best, boss!"

After hanging up the phone, Eric rang the bell: "Chen Xing, have you seen "Schindler's List"?"

Chen Xing was stunned for a moment: "I've seen it, but I can't remember the specific plot clearly."

"Just take a look and get to know this person. I want to get some of his relics as souvenirs. Go and find out."

"Okay boss, I guess I need to contact the major auction houses for this kind of thing."

"Go ahead and get the results back to me as soon as possible."

The work of a secretary is so complicated and cumbersome. You have to deal with various tasks assigned to you by your boss at any time, not just film and television work.

In the evening, the cheap brother Joshua Cooper suddenly ran back, and when they met, they met with a bear hug.

Eric's physical fitness was already quite good, but it was still a little worse than a professional rugby player. He felt that all the flesh in his body was shaking violently.

"You want to give me a concussion?"

"Hahahaha, there are no weak children in the Cooper family. You brat, you actually acquired MGM without saying a word. If my mother hadn't told me, I would still have been kept in the dark!"

"Just because of this, you want to kill me and inherit my company?"

"Sure, okay?"

The two brothers laughed, and their mother invited everyone to eat.

"Eric, how much did it cost to acquire MGM?" Joshua asked curiously.

Eric held out three fingers as he ate.

"$300 million?"

"Haha, can you use some imagination? Do you think US$300 million can acquire an established film and television company?"

Joshua's lips trembled: "It can't be 3 billion US dollars."

"About this price."

"OH MY GOD!"

Joshua's eyes widened in surprise, and then he began to roar: "Why buy that damn MGM? Why not buy the 49ers?"

"After acquiring the 49ers, I am the boss. I can play wherever I want, and I can tell whoever I want to get out. That guy Garrick, I have long disliked him!"

Eric nodded seriously: "Acquiring the team is indeed a good idea. After entering the new era, whether it is football or basketball, I have a feeling that it will usher in an explosive period."

"But the company is just on the right track now. At least I'll wait until I make some money. I'll give you a job as a team manager in the future."

Joshua's expression suddenly became wretched, and he chuckled: "The team manager is not important, let's discuss something."

"What's up?"

"Since MGM is now owned by the Cooper family, how about I work part-time as a talent scout?"

Seeing his lewd look, Eric's mind suddenly rang an alarm: "Joshua, you don't want to use this as an excuse to pick up girls, do you?"

Joshua hurriedly denied it and glanced sideways at his mother, who happened to be glaring at him as well.

"Joshua, I warn you not to mess around. I can't control what you do outside, but don't affect Eric's career, otherwise I will beat your ass, and I will do it in front of your coaches and teammates. , you knew I would do this!”

Joshua's mouth twitched: "I'm kidding, mom, and I've never had any sex outside, and I'm still single now."

"But our team's cheerleading team is quite good. There are a few girls in it who are very hot. There may be suitable roles for them to interview. Of course, there is absolutely no transaction between me and them. I just want to contribute to the company. Make a contribution.”

But obviously no one believed what he said, and Eric didn't like the cheerleaders even more.

Magic Johnson of the Lakers contracted AIDS because his private life was too chaotic.

After the news broke, the entire Lakers team, including players, staff and cheerleaders, went for examinations, and the focus was on the cheerleaders.

You must know that normal interpersonal interactions, including kissing, will not transmit AIDS. The main routes of transmission are mother-to-child, blood and sex.

And one person's infection caused the entire team to be highly nervous. They were definitely not in a mother-child relationship, and they could not transfuse each other's blood, so the only way of transmission was through sex. This shows how chaotic the team was. The cheerleading team was simply the team's public toilet.

"Joshua, forget about cheerleading. Be careful and don't get AIDS!"

Dad glared at him fiercely and warned: "Joshua, you must restrain your behavior. I don't want a woman to suddenly come to the door one day with her child in her arms. What I don't want to see is that there are more than A woman came to the door with a child in her arms!"

"If this really happens, I will be rude to you! Do you understand?"

Joshua shrank his neck and whispered: "I knew I shouldn't come back. I was just making a suggestion. Do three people need to target me together?"

Eric smiled: "Well, if there are really outstanding athletes, you can introduce them."

Joshua curled his lips: "Better than nothing."
