"The Godfather has been assassinated!"

Chen Jun suddenly stood up, but immediately stopped all movements and turned to look at Johnny: "Are you serious?"

Johnny shook the newspaper in his hand. Unexpectedly, he was so restrained and calm, and roared: "Can this still be false?"

Chen Jun didn't know whether it was fake or not. Even if it was true, it would be useless to act like a raging bull.

He once warned the old man that the godfather did not die in the original film, and now with his wisdom he would not be assassinated.

What he should consider most now is how to deal with the current situation.

"Who gave you the news?"

Johnny: "Your big brother Sonny called my house."

Chen Jun: "Did he tell the accurate life and death of the godfather?"

"No?"

"Why are you panicking?"

"But, newspapers..."

"Is there any definite news in the newspaper about the godfather's life and death?" Chen Jun interrupted directly and rudely.

Vivien Leigh silently listened to the quarrel-like conversation between the two, and stared blankly at the red wine placed on the dining table. She was knocked down by Chen Jungang's movement, and the bright red wine soaked into the white tablecloth.

The Godfather, shootings, newspapers....

It was as if a huge dark world was slowly opening up, and her face suddenly turned pale.

"No." Johnny was immediately frustrated, "I just said I was shot three times. What should I do now?"

Chen Jun didn't say anything, but gently patted Vivien Leigh, whose face changed drastically, then went out directly and picked up the restaurant's internal phone.

On the other end of the phone, Sonny, the eldest son of the Corleone family, answered the phone: "It's okay. Don't worry. He was shot in the hip, leg, and back. Are you in the hospital?"

"You come back first, it's not safe for you!"

"good!"

"What's going on over there?"

"Solozzo and the family behind him launched some measures against us. Currently, I am taking over the family. I have temporarily suppressed their uprising."

"I swear I will kill the five major families and Sollozzo. They must die!"

"Don't act rashly yet. They are uniting against us, hiding in the dark, while we are in the open. The situation is not good for us."

Chen Jun could imagine that on the other end of the phone, the boss, Sonny, was like a furious lion.

He is a cheap brother who is very kind to him, brave, courageous, powerful, and charming, but he is easily reckless.

"I know this, I have already made a plan."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Jun called Wilde again and told him about his replacement tasks for the next period of time, as well as some plans that he had prepared in advance.

Wilde was frightened when he heard this. He knew Chen Jun's background and he didn't hide anything from him. After hanging up the phone, he looked at the night that was getting dark.

"Will the building collapse?"

A sentence in Chinese was swallowed up by the silent night sky.

Overnight, Chen Jun rejected Johnny's request to accompany him, "There is a script called "Vertigo" in my office, a small-budget movie. If she is interested, give her the role of the heroine."

"Note: The director must be Alfred Hitchcock!"

During this time, he had already made plans for film production, but the sudden change caught him off guard.

After saying that, he strode away and directly found an airline arranged by Sonny to fly away.

Los Angeles is far away from New York, more than three thousand miles. The plane flight at this time would take at least two days. During this time, he sorted out the entire context in his mind.

The black world of New York is controlled by five major families.

Corleone Family: The leader, godfather Vito Corleone, has influence all over New York and all over the United States. On the surface, the family's business is selling olive oil, real estate, guilds, and gambling. In fact, it secretly controls many unknowns.

Bassini Family: The leader, Emilio Bassini, controls some gambling, sex industry, extortion, some sports gambling in the Bronx and West Cheston, and reading books sales in Brooklyn and Queens. Among the five major families, it is the only powerful one.

Second to the Corleone family.

Curio Family: The leader, Otilio Curio, controls the gaming, smuggling, and horse racing industries in upstate New York.

Strachey Family: The leader, Anthony Strachee, runs the gaming industry in New Jersey and the shipping industry at the West Side Pier in Manhattan. Among the five major families, they are the weakest and the most organized.

The Tatakiria family, headed by Philip Tatakiria, is mainly engaged in the female sex industry and is the most notorious family.

Sollozzo is just a passing drug lord, and it is impossible to succeed against the power of the Godfather.

He just failed to cooperate with the godfather, so he borrowed the power of the five major families.

When the five major families were seeking drug profits, they took advantage of the situation and pushed it out to use it as a knife, and then sought the godfather's control over the American gangs.

Currently, among the Corleone family, Sonny's strength alone may not necessarily be able to overwhelm the godfather's generals.

The Mafia has a bloodline inheritance system, but it also does not stipulate that one's own subordinates cannot rise to the top.

..... In Corleone's Long Beach Manor, Chen Jun went straight to his godfather's antique mahogany office. As soon as he opened the door, the strong smell of cigars filled his nostrils.

When he raised his eyes, he saw five people sitting inside.

Sonny the eldest, Mike the third, and Tom Hagen the strategist.

The godfather's two war generals, Clemenza and Tessio, control most of the force in the godfather's hands. According to the plot, the former is loyal to the Corleone family, while the latter is only loyal to the godfather.

"You came just in time. In the past two days, we have burned down several docks belonging to the five major families."

Sonny gave him a hug as soon as he arrived, but Chen Jun didn't care about the fight, "The old man has bodyguards, how could something happen?"

"A traitor has appeared."

"who?"

The traitor in the movie was originally Paul Gatto, but he reminded the godfather that it was obviously not him now.

"I have already dealt with them. He is very important to us. We did not expect that he would betray the old man."

Sonny didn't tell him his name, obviously not wanting him to get involved in this kind of thing.

His character, except for his lack of overall perspective, recklessness, and lust, is mostly like a replica of the Godfather.

Chen Jun was speechless and swept away the large bowl of pasta on the table, "Then what are you discussing here?"

"Two things!"

Tom Hagen stood up: "Sonny advocated an all-out war against the five major families, and I suggested trying to negotiate with Sollozzo. This is business, and we need the profits Sollozzo brings. Now the godfather is lying in the hospital, Corleone

Half of the family's power collapsed in an instant, and now we cannot lose our interests."

"Business?"

Sonny turned around and cursed angrily: "Solozzo sent you back just because he thought he had convinced you?"

"You put it lightly. It wasn't your father they killed."

Hagen's face turned pale. He was also the godfather's godson. He immediately said: "You and I are both the godfather's sons. This is career advice. Personally, I wish I could kill them all."

"But have you ever thought about going to full-scale war?"

"Yes, we have this strength. We can summon thousands of people and make the east a river of blood in an instant, but the Corleone family will no longer exist."

He finished speaking in one breath and looked at Chen Jun: "Even if the godfather is here, he will think this is business and choose to exercise restraint. What is your opinion?"

Everyone is also looking at him. He has become a newspaper giant in more than two months. No one dares to underestimate this achievement.
