MTL - After Buying Marvel, I Became the King of Hollywood-Chapter 129
Davis scratched his head, still digesting what had just happened.
"Help me investigate and contact the girls who were promised by Harvey Weinstein. I believe he didn't keep his promise, didn't he?"
In fact, everyone in Hollywood knows about Harvey Weinstein's crap, but everyone is equally bad, so he is also the eldest brother, not the second brother.
But what Harvey Weinstein is most criticized for is that he likes to prostitute for free.
Insiders know that he never trusts promises.
Therefore, the most deceived by him will always be the third-tier young actors.
These people fell into his trap with the dream of becoming popular through Oscar, and even if he broke his promise, these people had nothing to do with him.
Exposure is useless, without the help of capital, these news will not appear on major newspapers and periodicals at all.
unless···
Someone is willing to help them out.
That's right, Kevin is going to take on the identity of this kind person this time.
Harvey Weinstein, whose original trajectory was in 2017, was disclosed by the New York Times that he had sexually harassed at least eight women over the decades.
Then after a game, he surrendered himself to prison in 2018.
But now, Kevin is going to send him in early.
Chapter 193 Harvey Arrested
This kind of annoying fly, although it can't affect Kevin, can also disgust Kevin.
Davis nodded. Harvey Weinstein's actions had already affected Fox's earnings on The Matrix.
Now that Steve Kevin has taken the initiative to deal with Harvey Weinstein, Fox is still willing to be a good friend to help Kevin win Harvey Weinstein.
Seeing that Kevin already had his own way of dealing with this matter, Davis scratched his head and said:
"Kevin, do you need Fox and Chenxi Films to jointly issue a statement saying that the Wachowski brothers are contracted directors of Chenxi Films, and the so-called plagiarism is purely non-existent."
Kevin nodded:
"Let's make a statement together, so that we can minimize the impact of this incident as quickly as possible, so as not to further affect the box office of The Matrix."
Davis nodded and chatted a few more words before turning around and leaving to do this. It was in Fox's great interests, and the sooner it was dealt with, the better.
After dealing with it, Kevin greeted Dawson and asked him and Fox to discuss how to issue the statement, and then left Chenxi.
So far, things on the US side have basically been dealt with.
The Matrix's propaganda has also reached its peak, and he doesn't need to do anything more.
As for the counterattack of public opinion, to be honest, if the fundamental problem of the Wachowski brothers has been solved by him, it can still be affected.
Then Fox really eats dry rice and deserves not to make money.
After leaving Chenxi Films, Kevin called Tsui Hark directly.
"Are the formalities completed?"
"Kevin, all the formalities are done, and in three days, we will be able to leave for Sichuan."
There was some excitement in Tsui Hark's mouth.
As a Chinese who was born in Vietnam and went to Hong Kong with his family when he was a teenager, he has never really been to his homeland, the mainland.
But from his works, no one can deny his love for Chinese culture.
Whether it is A Chinese Ghost Story or the Legend of Shushan Swordsman, or other works, they all have a strong cultural attribute.
This is what Tsui Hark imagines China to look like through his books.
And now, he is about to set foot on the mainland for the first time in his life.
"Okay, see you at the airport in three days."
After Kevin and Tsui Hark confirmed the time, they hung up the phone.
the next day.
The staff in the villa area sent newspapers from several newspapers that Kevin subscribed to on a daily basis, and these newspapers published the public statements of Fox and Dawn Movies.
"According to a joint investigation by Fox and Dawn Films, this incident was made up by unscrupulous friends of the Wachowskis in order to attract attention."
"And just yesterday, the Wachowski brothers came to Dawn Films to explain the matter in person. They are all big fans of director Steve Kevin, and they also hate those who spread rumors."
"They will explain this on the Della talk show in two days, and explain the cause and effect to everyone. Here, Chenxi Film Company advises some unscrupulous media to be cautious in spreading false information."
As soon as this remark came out, most of the audience believed the words of Chenxi Film Company.
Of course, there are still a small number of people who think they have the truth and think that the Wachowskis were bought or coerced to say so.
No one can control this, all they can do is to control this negative news to a minimum.
As for the newspaper, after the joint statement was announced, it died down immediately.
It is not terrible to offend ordinary stars and directors. The newspapers are eager to be brought to court by them. This will only make a big splash, and the sales of the newspaper will increase greatly.
But for a film company of Fox's level, it needs to be weighed.
This kind of big company, the legal department is very good, really entangled, the newspaper also has a headache.
Under such a trend, the box office decline on the third day was alleviated, and it still received more than 40 million US dollars at the box office.
In other words, the three-day box office in the first weekend created a miracle of 140 million US dollars.
Under this heat, countless film critics took the initiative to write film reviews for The Matrix in order to gain popularity, some boasted, some black.
All of this has created a higher influence for The Matrix.
Under such circumstances, countless audiences walked into the cinema one after another and watched the movie.
As the protagonist, Nicolas Cage is busy doing publicity everywhere.
And the peripherals related to the protagonist Neo have sold millions of dollars.
The boys all over the street were wearing Neo's same trench coat and sunglasses to look cool.
At the same time, some Chinese martial arts halls have ushered in a wave of enrollment.
Some families with good conditions chose to go to the martial arts hall to sign up and learn kung fu, which made many Chinese martial arts halls make a lot of money.
After learning about the news from the newspaper, Kevin temporarily relaxed and prepared to rest.
At this time, Fox also called.
"Kevin, I have contacted at least five people..."
"Okay, you tell them that if you are willing to testify in court, I will arrange for them to play that kind of important supporting role in the movies I invested in."
"If you don't want to continue to be an actor, give me money, and this time I will teach Harvey a hard lesson."
"Give it to me."
On the other end of the phone, with the conditions given by Kevin, Davis immediately arranged to communicate with them, which would inevitably kill Harvey Weinstein.
As for the lack of evidence that he was 100% the protagonist who concocted this incident, it doesn't really matter.
It's nothing more than killing chickens to warn monkeys.
Steve Kevin wants to be seen and deal with what happened to him Steve Kevin.
the other side.
Harvey Weinstein did not feel the crisis at all.
He consciously did this very covertly, without any real hammer, even if Steve Kevin guessed that he was playing tricks, there was nothing he could do about him.
Although it was not able to completely stink Steve Kevin, it also caused The Matrix to lose a little bit of box office.
Harvey Weinstein's mood at this time can only be said to be happy.
In the office, looking at the little beauty in front of him, Harvey Weinstein said sweetly:
"Mila, you believe me, as long as you are willing to stay with me for a while, I promise, you will definitely push the movie you play to the Oscars."
"As long as you can win an Oscar, fame, fortune..."
"You will have whatever you want."
Harvey Weinstein, while speaking sweetly, mocked these naive little actors in his heart.
Most of the heroines he targets are some independent movie heroines. These talents have just stepped into Hollywood and are very ignorant of Hollywood's rules.
As soon as he said this, nine out of ten would be fooled.
Chapter 194 Going to Mount Emei
After I reacted, I wanted to trouble him again, because of his power in Hollywood, and there was no concrete evidence.
Usually it's over in the end.
And the little actor he was eyeing, Mira.
Not to mention anything else, this figure, this appearance, is really just like the name, sweet as honey.
Jean Harvey Weinstein can't help but want to try her taste.
Harvey Weinstein stared at Mira, waiting for her to grant his request.
Mila, who was beside her, was heartbroken.
Harvey Weinstein has a certain status in Hollywood.
For a small actor like Mila, he is a well-deserved big man.
Miramax has indeed won several Oscar statuettes.
Harvey's words still have some credibility.
She couldn't help but be moved.
Harvey saw that she was moving, with a successful smile on his face, raised his hand to signal, and let her come to his arms.
Just then, two heavily armed police officers pushed open the door.
Before Harvey Weinstein figured out what happened, he saw two police officers take out the detention testimony from their arms:
"Harvey Weinstein, you've been charged with **** crimes by five women, please come with us now."
"You have the right to remain silent and to contact a lawyer."
"From now on, your words and deeds will be presented in court as evidence."
"..."
Harvey was instantly angry.
"I'm innocent. Someone is framing me. I can't go with you. I want to see a lawyer."
Before Harvey could say anything, two more policemen stood up behind him.
There were four police officers in full gear and armed with firearms.
kept approaching.
For personal safety reasons, even if Harvey didn't want to go with them, he was handcuffed, escorted by the police, and left the company.
"What happened to the president?"
"I heard there was a **** offense involved."
"Humph! He's a lecher. I'm afraid some beautiful women in the company have already been caught by him. It's good to catch them."
"Huh? And this matter, tell me carefully."
"Last time, when Tamira went to the toilet, I heard that Harvey followed him into the women's toilet. You know what happened next..."
Along with Harvey Weinstein being taken away by the police, some real and fake news began to spread wildly inside Miramax.
Police tend not to take such a move without evidence because it can have a huge impact on a company's reputation.
If it's not certain that Harvey has committed a crime.
After coming out, he can sue the police station.
