Exploiting Hollywood 1980

"...and a piece of roast duck, thank you." Ronald sat at the table of Mr. Chow's Chinese restaurant again. After looking at the menu and ordering, a roast duck was added at the request of Assistant Prosecutor Helen Gable.

Helen Gable sat on the seat opposite Ronald, still dressed professionally in a black jacket, white shirt and pants. But this time she let her hair down, and it could be seen that she put on makeup carefully before going to the appointment.

"Did you know? At the beginning of the month, the former Beatles lead singer, John Lennon, was shot dead by one of his crazy fans shortly after he walked out of this restaurant," Helen said. .

"Uh..." Ronald really didn't know. He was working hard on writing the script at that time, or he heard the news on the news, and didn't read the detailed reports carefully afterwards.

"It seems that Calvin Klein's friend David Geffen just signed Lennon's contract not long ago?" Ronald thought of business operations inexplicably, and quickly lowered his head and took a sip of water to drive this thought out of his head. , today he is here to ask the beautiful prosecutor to help with Little Bud’s case.

"Are these things boring to you? I don't pay much attention to entertainment industry news." Helen Gable misunderstood what Ronald meant by drinking water.

"No, no, I'm worried that you will feel bad if I dine in the same restaurant with you twice." Ronald quickly denied, "I originally wanted to change a restaurant, but Miss Gable, you said on the phone that you still like it here. , I didn’t expect you also like Chinese food.”

"Actually, where you eat is less important than who you eat with." Helen Gable said seductively in a slightly hoarse magnetic voice, sticking out her tongue and licking her lips.

Then he raised his slender champagne glass and clinked glasses with Ronald.

A red lip was printed on the edge of the cup. Helen smiled, took a napkin and pressed it on her lips to remove the excess lipstick.

Two lawyers, Lindsay Dole and Eugene, came up with very effective solutions for little Bud. Mrs. Davis and Aunt Karen also invited little Bud’s high school principal to discuss together, and finally agreed with the two lawyers. proposal.

However, this method requires that Little Bud's case must be sent to some judge's court that is willing to carry out this operation. This matter can only be handled most conveniently by the lawyer's roommate and best friend, Helen Gable.

The district attorney is an elected position, but the assistant prosecutor is a professional position. In fact, like a lawyer practicing in a law firm, he also needs a lawyer's license. Helen Gable is Lindsay's classmate and a top law student. However, her father has an old relationship with the current district attorney and has chosen a different route from Lindsay.

Helen Gable agreed to cooperate,

But asked for another date with Ronald and cashed the last rainy day check.

Americans like to watch baseball. In the early days of open-air stadiums without roofs, when it rained, the stadium would give the audience something called a rain check. The next time the weather improved, the game would be replayed. You can enter the market again with a check, no need to buy new tickets.

The last time Helen Gable was asked to help Michelle Pfeiffer issue a temporary restraining order to two vegetarian swindlers, Helen was busy in advance and left a rain check. This time she Nader asking her for help again was equivalent to owing two favors.

"I appreciate your help, Miss Gable..."

"Nonono, I'm here for an appointment today with a handsome guy. I don't want to hear Miss Gable's professional title, and I don't want to hear anything about work." Helen Gable raised her index finger and said to Ronald Shake.

"Okay. Don't move, Helen." Ronald picked up the napkin with one hand and gently wiped it carefully on the lips of the beautiful prosecutor, helping her wipe away the traces of lipstick that remained on her lips because there was no mirror.

Helen Gable enjoyed this kind of gentle treatment. She tilted her head in response, and her short hair fell from her ears and spread to the front.

Ronald raised his other hand, pushed the dark hair behind Helen's ear again, and then stared at her eyes intently. For a time, there was a lot of affection between the two of them.

Ronald didn't know whether it was his initiative that caused the other party's misunderstanding, or whether Helen Gable was already attracted to him. The two of them looked at each other with affection, and this feeling made Ronald very comfortable, as if this was not an exchange.

An idea came to my mind, if it was really with this beautiful prosecutor... it seemed like a good idea.

"Slice-skin roast duck, one serving." The waiter's voice interrupting their mutual admiration.

"Giggle..." the beautiful prosecutor couldn't stop laughing. This handsome young man was very in line with her taste and he knew his taste.

"Go to my place? Or should I take you back?" It took a long time to finish dinner. Ronald asked Helen Gable at the door of the restaurant when he took out the keys and a banknote and gave them to the doorman to pick up the car.

"I have a big bathtub there..." The beautiful prosecutor held her arm with Ronald and said beside him.

"Hiss..." Ronald's scalp tightened, and as Helen Gable's hot air blew into his ears as she spoke, an electric current coursed through his body.

The two returned to Helen's apartment. The beauty closed the door with her foot. Ronald took advantage of the situation and hugged her, changing the angle of her nose, and kissed her gently.

"Well, you are really... a good... kissing opponent. Lindsay is at home, go to my room..." The heat of Helen's words rushed to Ronald's face, making him emotionally high. He squatted deeply and The beautiful prosecutor picked her up and walked to the bedroom.

"Over there, over there..." Helen Gable pointed to her bedroom door. Ronald went in the wrong direction at first.

With a bang, Helen closed her bedroom door forcefully and turned on the TV to cover it up. After a while, the replay of the fourth season of the CBS TV series "The Grudge" began. The important character Jr. Ewing was shot at the end of the previous season. The first episode of the new season finally revealed that the murderer was his sister.

After the characters in the play learned the truth, a low or high exclamation came out through the door.

"It's starting again..." In the other bedroom, lawyer Lindsay Dole, who was still sorting out information, picked up two cotton balls and plugged his ears, one on the left and one on the right, to block the sound that was about to penetrate his ears. .

After a long time, Helen was lying in Ronald's arms in the large bathtub in the bathroom of the apartment, "Oh, Ronnie, Ronnie, I'm a little reluctant to let you go today."

The sound of "Wow..." was the sound of Ronald stirring the hot water and reaching for the towel. Seeing Helen say this, Ronald was a little stunned when he picked up the dry towel, but he still helped Helen wipe her hair gently.

"I thought you felt the same way I did..."

"How do you feel?" Helen turned around and chuckled, "I am an independent urban woman. My goal is to become a female prosecutor in New York. I have no time to waste on romance."

Seeing that Ronald was silent, Helen Gable looked at Ronald and was surprised that he was not more happy to be irresponsible and a little sentimental, so she told him some truth.

Assistant U.S. Attorney is a career that requires all your time to move up in the competition. Especially for beautiful women, they have to withstand all kinds of gossip and have to be more impeccable.

In this way, Helen Gable had no time to develop a normal relationship.

A relationship requires both parties to invest time and energy to maintain it. During Helen Gable's working hours, no man could tolerate such a girlfriend. Her boyfriend was always less important than work. She would leave her boyfriend and go to work anytime and anywhere.

"All I need is mutual attraction for men, you understand? Ronald."

"I understand, Helen. It's just that I might be looking forward to a real relationship between a man and a woman, rather than a simple relationship."

"Giggle...you are so cute, Ronald." Helen put on a cotton bathrobe, "How can professional men and women in big cities have such luxury time?"

"That's right. With the nature of my job, I write scripts, work with the crew, and do editing. I'm often busy and don't see people for months. Where can I find a stable love relationship?" Ronald thought about it and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Looking at Ingrid Bergman's autobiography, you can see that even for a beauty like her, her three marriages all ended in divorce. It is indeed not easy for men and women in the film and television industry to find long-term and stable partners, especially if you are interested in the appearance of your partner. If you still have some expectations about the character.

Helen Gable looked through her eyes and looked at Ronald standing behind her in the bathroom mirror, wiping her hair. She stretched her hands back to hold his head and commanded, "Kiss me."

"Yes, Mr. Prosecutor."

"Lindsay will take care of the rest for you. I am also contributing to the American Federation." After a long time, Helen lay on the bed in the bedroom, pulled up the quilt, and said to Ronald who was arranging clothes beside him.

"I'm leaving..." Ronald kissed the sleepy Helen Gable gently and walked out of the room.

"Ronald, you've just finished it. We can talk about little Bud's trial arrangements."

"Um, Lindsay..." Ronald greeted the lawyer lady awkwardly when he saw her going out, and said while walking towards the door, "I will discuss it with you and lawyer Eugene tomorrow."

I am not used to being able to change my identity at any time like these professional women.

…

"Bud Davis Jr. manufactured, stored, wholesaled and sold pirated tapes. The goods were of huge value. The prosecutors charged him with three counts of piracy, illegal organization and sales of unlicensed goods, and infringement." A few days later, Helen Gable Standing before the examining magistrate, Bud Jr. was read the crime for which he had been charged by the District Attorney's Office.

"Defense lawyer? Did the defendant plead guilty?" The file was specially sent to Judge Jefferson's court by the clerk, a veteran conservative white judge. "

The black lawyer Eugene uttered two words: "please plead guilty."

The old judge lowered his head, looked past his reading glasses, and looked directly at little Bud standing in the dock.

"Defendant Bud Davis Jr., do you understand that the crime charged is a felony? You will be required to be sentenced to up to five years in prison, with confiscation of illegal gains and a fine?"

"Yes, your honor." Little Bud looked directly at the judge, showing full of regret.

"Do you plead guilty to the above charges?"

"Plea guilty, your honor."

"Very good, it saves trial time. This court announces that the defendant pleads guilty and is found guilty. Has the prosecution and defense reached a plea agreement?"

Both parties shook their heads and waited for the judge to pronounce the sentence.

"In view of the need of the American federal government to maintain peace in the country and its allies, the defendant has no criminal record, has a good repentance attitude, and has turned over his illegal gains. I pronounce the sentence and send the defendant to the federal Marine Corps to serve overseas for 4 years, in addition to 4 years of reserve time after active duty.

The defendant does not have to serve any prison time while serving. If the defendant behaved well during his service, observed discipline, and retired smoothly. When discharged from service, the felony record can be revoked and veterans can enjoy normal schooling, medical and other normal benefits...

Finally, I would like to appeal again. Today’s national security requires more American soldiers to protect it. I hope more young people will join the army to serve the federal and public welfare. God bless America! God bless the military, Amen. "

"Now the defendant can go off with the Marine Corps Recruiting Office."

"Huh..." Ronald, who was listening, let out a sigh of relief. Lawyer Lindsay Dole, who was standing next to him, said to him, "Eugene is very good at this. Now that the federal government has abolished the military conscription system, the supply of soldiers has been introduced year after year. Judge Jefferson is a well-known conservative patriot. He is not committed to crimes like Little Bud." Serious criminals who are in good physical condition will be sent to serve in prison."

"Don't worry, the people in the recruitment office have already accommodated themselves. Little Bud will be sent to Hawaii or stationed at a base in Japan. After four years, not only will his felony record be revoked, but he will also be able to study for himself in the military and get a junior college diploma. .”

The two walked down the steps of the courthouse. In front of them, Mrs. Davis was saying goodbye to little Bud. Next to her was the sergeant from the recruiting office who was waiting to receive her.

"The thing about his age and high school diploma?"

"He is only a few months away from turning 17. His father was a soldier who died in the Marine Corps. The people in the recruitment office are very easy to talk to. The principal of the public high school is also very cooperative. It is not easy for a student to get out of Harlem."

Ronald nodded. Serving as a soldier was a way out for black people, but it was generally not easy for black people with no background to serve in the army. In order to enlist in the army, many black people would even deliberately commit a minor felony. Then, the principal of their high school would serve as a guarantee, and they would be sentenced by a judge and sent to the army.

Little Bud's father was from the Marine Corps, and with the coordination of several parties including lawyer Eugene, this matter was handled smoothly. It seems that I have to pay him a huge legal fee.

"Thank you, Ronald." Little Bud was signaled by Mrs. Davis to come over and thank Ronald.

"Serve the Marine Corps well and don't let your mother down."

"I will. Please help me take good care of my mother. I will repay you after I retire from the army, Ronald." Little Bud's experience during this period made him a little more mature. After hugging Ronald, he and the conscripts The sergeant in the office left together.

Mrs. Davis hugged Aunt Karen and cried, "That's how I sent Bud away..."

"Don't be afraid. Ronald has made arrangements this time. He will not serve in a dangerous place. It's like going to community college..." Aunt Karen gently patted Mrs. Davis on the shoulder to comfort her.
