World-class directors in the entertainment industry

The Weinstein Company.

President's Office.

"Harvey, what's wrong?"

There were four people in the house at this time.

Watching Harvey make a phone call, he only said one sentence, and then listened silently to what was said on the other end of the phone, and then... then nothing happened, only to see Harvey finally hang up the phone silently.

Suddenly the other two women and one man couldn't bear it any longer, and someone asked.

Harvey shook his head first, and remained silent with an ugly expression on his face, as if he was thinking about something. After a long time, he raised his head:

"Meryl, Judy, Quentin, I'm sorry that things have come to this."

"Martin, this bastard, betrayed Hollywood. This son of a bitch stood next to that yellow-skinned monkey."

The other two girls and one boy, Hao Ran, are Hollywood stars Meryl, Judy and Quentin.

The three people listened to Harvey's words and openly stood up to replace Harvey and started a fight with Qin Dong.

Later, things developed a bit violently, and the Chinese man's reaction was too explosive, which was different from the Hollywood people they usually dealt with.

The three people once again listened to Harvey's words and temporarily hid themselves and stopped coming forward for interviews, hoping to cool down the matter.

However, things did not turn around. They directly entrusted a lawyer to formally sue them, and even the court notice was posted. At this time, their home also received a notice from the court.

Now the three of them could not sit still and immediately came to the Weinstein Company to find Harvey.

It's just that Harvey said that he would call to question CAA President Martin, but it ended in an anticlimax. The three of them felt bad. Listening to Harvey's words, everyone looked ugly.

This was really not my fault, but in the end I made a fuss.

"Well, Harvey..."

"When... when..."

I was about to say something when there was a knocking sound on the office door, and then a middle-aged man opened the door and walked in:

"Harvey, everyone, you'd better watch TV."

The visitor, Hao Ran, was Bob Weinstein, the general manager of the company, Harvey's younger brother.

After Bob came in and said something, he found the remote control and turned on the LCD TV.

I found an entertainment station. At this time, a press conference was shown on the TV. The protagonists, Hao Ran, were Joe Gamore and Roy Black.

"Damn it, isn't this the yellow-skinned monkey's lawyer?"

Meryl recognized the two people on the TV at a glance, and cursed with a very ugly look on her face.

"Meryl, don't get excited, let's take a look first."

Harvey squinted at the TV and comforted Meryl casually.

But his mind was racing with thoughts. Just now, he concealed Martin's warning words to him from the three people in front of him who were under his command.

Harvey would never let the three people in front of him know about this kind of thing. He was staring at the TV, but he was secretly thinking about how to free himself from this matter.

Don't make the matter a big deal and put yourself in danger.

If all those bitches who have been raped and harassed by him come out, even if he is fine, he will be notorious. Then there will be no chance of Oscar and he will be ostracized by the industry, then he will have nothing. This is absolutely unacceptable.

It happens.

At this time on the TV, a black reporter stood up and asked questions.

Roy Black, the barrister, said softly: "...We are suing the above three individuals to compensate our employer for one billion US dollars in damages."

"Fake, son of a bitch, billions of damages, what a dream."

When Quentin saw this, he couldn't help but cursed.

What is the concept of a billion dollars? He started to enter the film industry in the late 1980s, and now he is a director, screenwriter, and producer from time to time. He has been working for 20 or 30 years, and his net worth is not even 100 million dollars. He has lost a billion dollars on this account.

Fei, how can I bear this?

"The yellow-skinned monkey is so scared of poverty. It's really unreasonable."

Judy said with a cold face.

Compared to Meryl and Quentin, Judy was in more trouble at this time. Thinking of Columbia's warning, Judy felt panicked.

If the matter is not resolved this time, Columbia may actually sue itself.

Thinking of this, Judy glanced at Harvey from the corner of her eyes.

This time, the man who once brought her an Oscar-winning actress really caused her big trouble.

"Keep watching."

Harvey stopped a few people and signaled that they would watch the TV show first.

Several people were staring at the TV with sullen faces.

At this time, many people questioned the press conference on TV.

"What? A billion?"

"OH, MYGOD."

"One billion, so much?"

Facing the questions from reporters below, Joe and Roy, two super-barristers at the main table, smiled and didn't care.

"Attorney Roy, is a billion in damages too much? After all, this case, to be honest, is really just a dispute of words. Isn't this compensation amount too exaggerated?"

When the black reporter heard this question, he did not answer it any further. Instead, he asked the third question again.

Faced with such doubts, Roy smiled slightly and pointed at himself:

"Everyone knows that I am the highest-paid lawyer, so if I am involved in a scandal."

“Do you think I can still charge the highest price?”

The reporters shook their heads.

"Yes, it's no longer possible for me. Maybe I won't be able to receive a case, let alone charge a fee. Do you think I will lose a lot in this case?"

The reporters nodded this time.

"My employer, Mr. Qin Dong, is a genius in his industry, and he is still very young."

Roy smiled and pointed at his assistant's briefcase, took the briefcase, opened it, took out a document, faced the reporters' cameras, and said with a smile:

"Before I accepted the case, I only knew and heard about my employer Qin. In fact, I didn't really know what a genius he was."

"Of course, some people know it. For example, in your journalism industry, maybe many people know it."

"But I guess most people don't know, so I have to face ordinary people here to solemnly introduce my employer, Huaxia Talent Director, Qin."

As he said that, Roy put on his glasses. As people get older, bad eyesight is inevitable. Then he opened the file and looked at the camera to introduce:

"In the summer of 2009, Qin graduated from the directing department at the age of 22."

"This fall, Qin shot his first movie, which grossed $30 million at the box office at a cost of $1.5 million."

"Five months later, Qin's second movie was released. This time it cost $3.2 million and grossed $100 million at the box office."

"Another five months passed, at the end of 2010, at the beginning of 2011, during the Spring Festival in China, when Qin's third movie was released."

"This movie cost US$4.7 million and the box office reached US$170 million."

"Qin's fourth film, which many people know is being released globally this time, is [Source Code]."

"It was released in the summer of 2011. Many people know about this movie. I still want to say it again here."

"[Source Code] cost 20 million U.S. dollars and has a global box office of more than 500 million U.S. dollars."

Having said this, Roy looked at the camera and emphasized again:

"Remember, this only refers to the box office, and does not include other income from copyrights, offline discs, etc."

"And Qin's fifth movie is [Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol] starring superstar Tom Cruise."

"I don't think I need to introduce this movie."

Many reporters below also smiled and shook their heads.

This movie only came out not long ago, and with Tom as a superstar who has been popular for decades, and with a box office of 800 million, it is considered one of the most outstanding movies of the year, so naturally a lot of people know about it.

"Look, everyone knows it, so I want to ask you something..."

Roy was very satisfied with the reporters' attitude, then he got serious and asked:

"..."
