Chapter 177: Charles's latest moves

It's March, it's a separate season, John sees off the two little ones at the airport in the morning, and in the afternoon he puts Dani on the plane himself.

Dani still has a year of classes at Harvard University and should not be returning anytime soon, which also means that John will be alone for a while.

Being alone has the advantage of being alone, that is, freedom and purity, which allows John to sit in his study and write scripts with peace of mind.

This is John's transformation for himself, and the name of the movie is tentatively named "T", a film about a group of men and an island, which has been hailed by fans as the most classic action movie of all time...... One.

The reason why John chose this film as his transformation work is that he sees its profound ideas, thought-provoking story, and the whole film not only has topics, but also cool action scenes.

For him, who has filmed two literary films in a row, if he wants to transform into a commercial film and develop, this film can be said to be the best choice.

"Didi ......"

The phone rang, and John's eyes swept to the phone on the table, and the caller ID was Nancy's number.

"Nancy, what's the matter?" John asked, putting down his pen, picking up the phone.

"The Academy Awards are five days away, when are you going back to Los Angeles?" asked Nancy on the other end of the phone.

"Oh...... Damn!" John patted his forehead when he heard Nancy's words, he forgot about the awards ceremony, and he had been immersed in the script for the past few days, and he had no time to care about anything else.

"Nancy, you can go for me! I'm writing a script right now, so if I win an award, give me an acceptance speech. "A golden man with the Best Song Award is not worth his special trip.

Nancy, who was on the other end of the phone, rolled her eyes when she heard John not go. "Okay! So be it. ”

"Well, I'll talk about it when I get back to Los Angeles. Hanging up the phone, John picked up the pen and continued to write the script, and he once again left the Academy Awards behind.

Session: 28th Quarter 13, Bathroom Shootout.

Interior: Main cell.

Location: Bathroom.

Close-up: The grille is open.

Camera cuts: SEALs Boy and Rejet appear in back-to-back defensive positions wearing night vision goggles.

Camera cut: Lieutenant Colonel Anderson follows, and the rest of the SEALs come out one by one.

Camera cuts, close-ups: Anderson says to Shepard in the drain, "Stay, we'll clear the scene first." ”

......

"Dididi!"

"Alas, I don't want anyone to be quiet!"

The phone rang again, the caller ID was Ariana, John reluctantly put down the pen and picked up the phone. "Ariana, what's the matter, say. ”

"John, I'll tell you the sad news that my brother Charles bought Miramax. On the other end of the phone, Ariana whispered, for fear of being heard.

"What does your brother want to do, does he want to enter the film and television industry?" John was surprised. In his previous life, Miramax Films was acquired by Walt Disney, and in this life, his butterfly wings instigated a little history.

"You're stupid!" Ariana rolled her eyes on the other end of the phone. "My brother is going for you. ”

"Oh, is he in the habit of seeking abuse?" replied John, pretending to be light-hearted.

"Where do you get your confidence? Forget it, I'll not tell you, be careful yourself!" Ariana said, hanging up. If she and John weren't partners, she wouldn't have bothered to call to remind her.

On the other end of the phone, John put the phone in place with a frown, the ease he had just made was completely pretended.

Charles's purchase of Miramax Films was clearly aimed at him, and having a Bowen Rothschild was already a headache for him, and now with Charles, his prospects are a little less optimistic.

"If only there was no assessment!" John said through gritted teeth.

To put it bluntly, Charles and Bowen Rothschild are bullying him and are now undergoing family assessments, and they can't mobilize the strength of the family, otherwise give Charles and Bowen Rothschild a few guts, and they won't dare to show their muscles to him in Hollywood, which has nothing to do with courage or not, but to be self-aware.

Just like he won't go to the oil field to compete with Charles, each family has its own things to do and its own core areas, and you go to other people's houses to show your muscles, which is either a head pump or a source of abuse.

"Forget it, I don't want to think about it, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, I don't believe that I can't fight two people with the memory of my last life. John shook his head, picked up the pen and continued to write the script, Charles's matter was temporarily pressed in his heart.

However, while he was writing the script while reminiscing about the movie, a young woman in her twenties sat in her study and talked to her assistant in a white-walled and red-roofed manor, thousands of miles away from him.

"Colin, you said Charles bought Miramax Films!" the young woman's voice was pleasant, with a hint of surprise in her tone.

"Yes Miss, Charles bought Miramax Films from the Weinstein brothers for $72 million plus $20 million in debt, but the company is still managed by the Weinstein brothers. Collin, who was standing across from the young woman, replied.

"Interesting!" the corners of the young woman's mouth rose slightly. "As soon as Charles and Bowen Rothschild join forces, JK will be sad in Hollywood. ”

"Yes, the main JK can't rely on the power of the family, and it will be difficult for him to resist the alliance of Charles and Bowen Rothschild on his own. Colin wasn't very optimistic about John, how could a tiger with its teeth pulled out be able to beat two hungry wolves.

"Yes!" the young woman nodded, and at the same time changed to a comfortable sitting position, leaning lazily on the sand, her eyes looking out the window at a grove, letting the sun shine on her fair face.

Colin stood quietly and waited for her orders.

After a while, the young woman shifted her gaze from the window to the house, and turned to Colin Road to the side. "There's something you need to do. ”

"Miss, you ...... you. Colin bent slightly.

"AMC, Cinemark, Regal......" The young woman read out the names of the seven largest theater chains in the United States. "Buy all these theaters for me. ”

Without waiting for Colin to speak, the young woman continued. "In addition, I was buying out the theatrical advertising company National CineMedia. With that, the young woman stood up and prepared to go to the bookshelf to pick up a book to pass the time.

Colin on the side followed behind her with some embarrassment. "Miss, the Morgan family might be upset about doing this, are you thinking about it?"

"No, I don't. The young woman took a book from the shelf and turned to look at Colin Road. "Don't worry! With that, he walked back to the couch and sat down, ignoring Colin.

"Okay miss, I'll do it. Colin bent over and walked out of the study.

As an assistant, he was well aware of the young woman's temper, and it was impossible to change what she had decided.
