Rebirth of America, this is my time
Chapter 163 11
"Then I'll leave first. If anything happens to the company, you can call me directly."
On the morning of September 7, 1977, Ethan, who was sitting in the driver's seat of a Ferrari, made a phone call gesture towards the head of his film company.
"No problem boss, leave it to me."
Gary Kurtz gave Ethan an OK and said with a smile: "Boss, don't worry, in the future, before the movie is finished, I will only call you to remind you to participate in "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" I will keep you out of the premiere and everything else."
While speaking, he winked at Ethan.
The slightly humorous performance made Ethan burst into laughter, gave the other party a thumbs up, stepped on the accelerator, and drove away in a car that had not been replaced in three years.
Yes, Ethan escaped from Los Angeles. As for the reasons, there are two reasons.
The first is that the people here are so welcoming.
When he openly overturned the desk of Warner Communications and forced them to issue a statement but did not dare to hold them accountable, Destiny Pictures, which had been left empty because of Warner's banning order, suddenly became busy.
The first person to come to the door was Xiao Si's friend of the same race, David Geffen.
After meeting Ethan, the future industry boss cried like a 200-pound child. He told the story of Warner's atrocities in tears and described Warner's tyranny of robbing people without giving them money. , the extremely detailed process really makes the listener cry and the listener sad.
At the end, he also said that when his contract with Warner expires, he will definitely re-enter the music field, and he will personally regain the lost face and dignity!
By then, he hopes to cooperate with Ethan, because he knows that even if his contract with Warner expires, it will be very difficult to work alone. If he does not bow to Warner, and does not kneel before Warner Emperor Steve If Ross admits his mistake, then he won't even think about signing other singers.
After all, no matter whether you are a newcomer in the industry or an old player in the industry, you are afraid of being blocked by Warner.
Regarding this kind of hatred that seemed like itching teeth and a request for help from the bottom of his heart, Ethan responded quickly and said that there was no problem. If he could help when the time came, he would definitely help.
The reasons need no explanation.
Now, anything that makes Warner sick, he, Ethan Jones, will definitely do it, and anything that can have an impact on Warner's industry, he, Ethan Jones, will definitely own it.
Since Warner is unwilling to swallow the bitter pill of Atari's failure, then everyone will just fight to the end.
Who is afraid of Who!
After getting a positive answer, David Geffen left with satisfaction. At the same time, the small company Destiny Pictures welcomed many people.
Perhaps because the company's address is in Century City, Fox executives organized a group to come over for a visit on their way to work. They complained quietly about Ethan's choice, saying that the relationship between Columbia Pictures and CBS only seemed to be strong, and they also maintained good cooperation with Fox and other media. Then he lamented the close distance between the two families. Now that they are neighbors, they can have more contact with each other in the future.
In addition, there are screenwriters in the industry who try to submit stories after hearing about urban legends;
There are recent graduates who want to try their luck after seeing the name of Destiny Game;
There are girls from outside the industry who want to be famous and come looking for opportunities...
Well……
Ethan would gasp when he thought about it.
Because after coming to Los Angeles several times, he finally saw the enthusiasm and unrestrainedness of the world-famous city. Can you imagine someone lifting up their clothes directly at the door of their company just for the opportunity? Can you imagine someone climbing right up to the third floor window of their company for fame and fortune? Can you imagine a five-foot-eight-inch blond girl unbuttoning her blouse in the name of an interview?
The kind of scene that would inspire another 30,000-word review in a Dian Niang novel, but Ethan had seen it all over in a few days! And that unabashed love is like a tide, making people's hearts bloom with joy!
Then……
He wanted to run away.
At that moment, something like a Japanese male gun, a Japanese bomber, popped into his mind.
Although the erotic scene is dizzying, because there are too many people coming and going, and the identities of the people coming in and out are complicated, no one can figure out the specific origins of those people. Therefore, Ethan, who is afraid that Warner will carry out some physical attack in a rage Understand, this is not a place to stay for long.
No way, who told Warner to have a history of arson? And Ethan has seen thunder hidden in his crotch?
In addition, he is self-aware and knows that even if his mouth is as hard as steel, it cannot withstand the threat of drilling holes and the torture of trucks, so running away is the best option.
And the fact that you run away after scolding someone...
It’s so exciting!
As for the second reason, that was because Evelin called him yesterday and asked him to go back immediately.
Although the girl did not tell the specific story on the other end of the phone, her tone was very urgent.
So, this morning, Ethan decided to go home.
While waiting for Ethan to return to his long-awaited kingdom, Cat entered the safest Stanford Research Park in California. As soon as he entered the company, he felt something was wrong.
Today is obviously a working day, but why is there no one in the company?
He'd only been gone for two weeks and these people were already herding sheep?
Good guy, could it be that once he went out, these people's versions would evolve? Have you understood the truth that getting paid for work is called reward, and fishing for money at work is called making money?
And when Ethan came to the second floor of the company with a confused look on his face...
The announcement voice coming from the lounge immediately attracted his attention——
"Today, our commander-in-chief, despite strong domestic opposition, officially signed a new canal treaty with the BNM to replace the old treaty signed in 1903."
"The new treaty stipulates that the BNM Canal will be managed by the Canal Management Committee composed of officials from both countries, and the ownership and operation rights of all facilities in the canal zone will be gradually transferred to BNM."
"The entire process will last for twenty-three years. When noon comes on December 31, 1999, the ownership of the BNM Canal will fully belong to BNM."
"The formal signing of this treaty means that America will officially lose control of the BNM Canal in 23 years. This is a huge shame for America!"
"Although we don't know why our commander-in-chief insists on his own way, we know that he will definitely become a sinner in America's history! He will definitely be nailed to the pillar of shame in history!"
When this roar got into Ethan's ears, he instantly understood why no one in the company was working.
Because he had learned about the BNM Canal when he was in school in his previous life, and he also came into contact with shipping company cases when he was working later. Whenever he mentioned this matter to an old-school American, the other party would definitely mention it. Renzong singled out and scolded him bloody.
No way, who made the BNM Canal a bridge to the world?
Its existence has greatly shortened the shipping distance from the Pacific to the Atlantic, so that ships no longer need to pass through the Strait of Magellan and can reach their destinations in the shortest time.
At the same time, it also shortened the route between the east and west coasts of America by 7,500 miles.
Since its successful trial in 1914, the canal has brought more than $50 billion in revenue to America. But money is not the most important thing. What is important is that this land belongs to America, so America can build a military base here unscrupulously. The 10,000-meter army stationed here can radiate the entire South America, and let America During WW1 and WW2, America used this canal to achieve mobile operations of naval battleships that were the envy of all countries.
When such a strategic place needs to be returned to its original owner...
As long as you are a serious and educated American, you will not go to work!
"MFxxk! Is this the change Jimmy campaigned on to bring us?"
"Oh! Sxxt! How could this kind of bill be passed? Are all those congressmen stupid?"
"What we signed was a permanent concession, right? We spent tens of millions of dollars to build this canal, which took nearly ten years, right? We spent a lot of time and money, and then this beast Jimmy wanted to Give it to someone else? Oh—how did he get elected as the commander-in-chief?”
"Can such a person be the commander-in-chief? Then we might as well let our governor be! No! I think our boss can do a better job than him! At least our boss will shout 'God Bless America' to the camera !', he will not be a traitor like this idiot Jimmy!"
"Boss? Oh - wait, did the boss lead us to vote for Jimmy last year?"
"Have it?"
"Yes! I remember I voted!"
"hiss--"
"Then he must have been deceived too, right? After all, Jimmy's performance was very good at that time!"
'Grass! How does this involve me? ’
Ethan, who was squatting at the top of the stairs and listening to his employees, sneaked up the stairs.
With memories of his previous life, he knew clearly that Renzong lost his chance of re-election because of this treaty. He originally thought that this kind of thing had little to do with him, a 22-year-old young businessman who had not read much, but now... Fuck! Are these guys specializing in my employees?
How come you remember my things so clearly!
He thought secretly in his heart.
And when he entered the office on the top floor and knocked on the door of the innermost office, the same broadcast appeared in front of him as his field of vision opened up.
Good guys, Evelin is watching the live broadcast too.
"Oh thank God you're finally back!"
The sudden appearance of the figure made the girl sigh in relief.
"If you don't come back, I'm going to Los Angeles to catch you!"
The girl pulled Ethan into the office. At the same time as she closed the door, she also glanced at the passage.
The straight corridor couldn't hide anyone, and the deserted environment made her close the door.
"The public opinion is not in the right place right now. You must never accept interviews from the media again!"
"Even in an interview, you can't talk nonsense!"
"You know?"
As soon as she entered the room, the girl spoke urgently.
And Ethan also put away his usual joking expression, nodded and said, "Yeah~"
Pointing to the TV that was playing, he added, "Is it because of this?"
"I heard it when I came up and our guys were in the lounge watching the live broadcast."
"They seem to be unhappy about this."
"Who would be satisfied with this kind of thing?" Evelyn said, "Even Barbara is not satisfied."
"Really?" Ethan was shocked, "Isn't Barbara a supporter of Jimmy?"
"But no one thought that he would finalize these things even three hundred and sixty-five days after taking office!" Evelin spread her hands and said helplessly: "Although Barbara's view is equal rights , emphasizing fighting for women’s rights, but she is still conservative in the overall situation.”
"So, she called me last night and told me to keep your mouth shut. During the general election, we voted for Jimmy in front of many people, and a few days ago you made another decision to attack Warner From the perspective of a patriot, I scolded Steve Ross. If someone interviews you at this time, everything you say will be wrong!"
This fact made Ethan shrug helplessly.
He pointed to the floor and said, "Actually, our own people feel the same way."
“…” This response stunned Evelin. Then she said directly: "Then don't go anywhere recently and refuse any interviews, because if nothing else happens, the media will definitely mention you when they report on this incident!"
Evelin was right.
That night, NBC News Network did quote him when it broadcast the news.
"It's hard for us to imagine that this is a treaty implemented by someone who has served as governor."
"Although Jimmy has been emphasizing that the implementation of this treaty is to avoid possible conflicts and violence in the future, it is conducive to promoting friendly relations between us and Latin America, and it is also in line with the strategic significance of our country, because we still retain It has the power to conduct military intervention in the canal area, and it still has the right to give priority to pass through the canal in case of emergency.”
“But what I want to say is that to give up control and management of the canal area is to hand over the existing power to the unknown! Moreover, this canal was built with our own money! It was built with countless taxpayers’ money. Get up! If Jimmy gives up this canal, he is using taxpayers' money and our American property to exchange for his personal reputation in the world!"
"More importantly, the signing of this treaty was against American law! Jimmy ceded the canal zone without any proper authorization!"
“Here, I would like to quote a word from Ethan Jones, the founder of Destiny Games, who has continuously entered the public eye in recent years and brought infinite happiness to the public in the field of video games.”
"A few days ago, when he announced the company's entry into the film field, he said to the outside world - 'The reason why I will succeed is because I love this land! I believe this is the place where miracles are born! I believe this is where dreams are made! All sufferings are tests from God on the road to success! Those evils will eventually be defeated by the hard-working Americans!'"
"Ethan Jones is right, America is a place that can host countless dreams. Jimmy can succeed here not because of how great he is, but because the country under his feet is America - —”
"Without the platform of America, Jimmy would be just an ordinary person!"
"Without the cohesion of the American people, Jimmy would have such power!"
"Without the miracle of America's pregnancy, no one in the world would know Jimmy!"
"But that's it!"
"He still gave away what belongs to our country to others!"
"This is a betrayal! This is a surrender!"
"He, Jimmy, must pay for this!"
"Bang-dang-" Ethan put his foot on the coffee table.
Under the dim light, his expression was unclear.
"Squeak-" Steve Ross leaned back and sank into the soft sofa.
His cloudy eyes were staring at the TV, and the corners of his old cheeks and mouth were raised.
