1069. The mantis arm is used as a car
Luke was just surprised, and didn't pay attention to the stranger, after all, Joseph in front of him was the most important thing to him, and the others, no matter what their status, didn't matter.
"Joseph, I thought you were going to hide for the rest of your life, why, finally figured it out?" Luke asked with a victorious gesture, and in his opinion, Joseph's presence had already indicated that he was beginning to relent.
"Luke, I'm here just to tell you that you've been fired by me. ”
"In addition, I will not fulfill the contracts you forged, so you will wait to receive my court summons. Joseph took a deep breath, resisting the urge to punch Luke, and announced loudly.
Seeing that Joseph still wanted to resist stubbornly, Luke's eyes narrowed, revealing a dangerous light.
"Joseph, pay attention to your words, what are the so-called forged contracts, those contracts that you have signed with your name, and have formal legal effect, do you want to reverse black and white in one sentence? I advise you to rest your mind and obediently fulfill these contracts, and I will send you to prison at that time. ”
Joseph heard that Luke was biting the contract and signed it himself, and he was also a little regretful in his heart, he didn't expect this guy to be so cautious, it seems that the voice recorder in his pocket is useless.
However, Joseph did not become angry, but set his eyes on the middle-aged man who had been following him beside him.
Receiving Joseph's signal, Lecker stepped forward and said to Luke, who was looking defiant, with a straight face: "Mr. Luke, from the beginning, I have full authority to talk to you on behalf of my employer Joseph. ”
"Are you?" Luke put away his provocative expression and looked at Lecker with some solemnity, this guy looked very difficult to mess with in Luke's eyes.
"I'm Joseph's lawyer. After a brief introduction of himself, Lecker went straight to the point.
"Joseph has explained to me that I have the right to ask you several questions on behalf of my employer, first of all, there are eleven clauses in the contract between you and my current employer, Joseph......"
Luke was a little disdainful at first, thinking that Joseph wanted to scare himself if he found a lawyer anywhere, but what he didn't expect was that this lawyer named Lecker was so powerful, and all the traps in the contract terms he had drawn up himself were found by this lawyer named Lecker.
What's more, the lawyer named Lecker also questioned and denied the original ironclad contracts through some clauses in the brokerage contract between himself and Joseph.
Luke was speechless for a while, and a cold sweat broke out on his back.
Because he found that the means by which he threatened Joseph were no longer as brilliant as he thought.
"Finally, Mr. Luke, you have always claimed that these contracts were signed by my employer Joseph himself, but as far as I know, surveillance footage from at least five of the companies shows that my employer Joseph was not present at the time these contracts were signed. ”
"In addition to this, I also received testimony from representatives of 16 companies, which can prove that these signatures have nothing to do with my employer and are not signed by him personally. ”
Joseph trembled with excitement as he listened, he really didn't expect that in this week's time, Max Films would be able to collect so much key evidence, and Joseph knew that he was safe after listening to Laker's words.
In comparison, Luke's face was already pale, Joseph thought he was the devil, but Luke felt that the Lecker in front of him was the real devil.
Just as Luke was thinking about how to refute Lecker, Lecker suddenly stopped talking and looked at his watch.
"Mr. Luke, I suggest you give your lawyer a call now, because within five minutes, a police officer will come and take you to the police station for investigation, and the whistleblower will not only me, but also seven of your artists, all of whom suspect you of taking kickbacks from their salaries, commercial performances, and advertising income. ”
"Good luck. Lecker dropped these words lightly and retreated behind Joseph.
Luke's face was flushed by Lecker's last sarcastic sentence, but he was scared in his heart, at this time he really panicked, the lawyer Joseph found was really a devil, he actually investigated his old bottom clearly within a week, Luke knew very well that what this lawyer said was just the tip of the iceberg, and if he could get this evidence, he could get more evidence.
He didn't believe that Zhiping Joseph and his parents would have such energy, and that there must be someone behind it.
"Mr. Joseph, if you don't have anything to say to him, let's go downstairs, the driver is still waiting, as for this guy, naturally there are laws to deal with him. Lecker ignored Luke, who was blushing and pale, and said to Joseph instead.
Joseph glanced at Luke silently, and was about to turn to leave, when suddenly the door of Luke's office was pushed open, and then the three of them looked at Luke's little secretary who ran in in a panic.
"Boss, no, there are a few police officers who are going to take you back to the police station for investigation, they showed a search warrant, we can't stop it, the person has already gone upstairs. With the words of the little secretary, several police officers in police uniforms had already walked to the door of Luke's office.
"Mr. Luke, we have received a report from the masses, please come with us. ”
The two police artists grabbed one of Luke's arms and took him out of the door, while the rest of the police officers directly began to search Luke's office, Luke seemed to be blind to this, a pair of small eyes that were originally sharp, but at this moment it seemed to be lifeless, the whole person was like a walking corpse, almost dragged towards the door by the police.
When he reached the door, Luke suddenly seemed to have returned to the light, and shouted at Joseph in horror, "Who is it, who is it!?"
Joseph sneered: "You'll know when you come out in twenty years!"
When Luke heard this, his eyes were red, and then he suddenly rolled his eyes, and the whole person fainted directly.
At this time, downstairs in Luke's office building, Nie Wei and Thomas were sitting on a bright Rolls-Royce Phantom, watching Luke being carried into the ambulance by a group of doctors.
"It's Luke on the stretcher. Thomas said with some surprise.
"Who has such a poisonous mouth and told people to go to the hospital?" Nie Wei even deliberately sat in the co-pilot's seat in order to watch the excitement, and he clearly saw that Luke, who was lying on the stretcher, really fainted.
"God knows. Thomas was in the driver's seat for Nie Wei as a driver, and when he heard Nie Wei's words, he couldn't help but smile and said.
An agent like Luke seems to have some energy in Hollywood, but when he encounters super-rich people like Max Films and Nie Wei, the connections he relies on have become a joke.
Just like this time, Nie Wei just instructed the company's lawyers to contact those companies, and most of them immediately 'betrayed' Luke as soon as they heard Nie Wei's orders.
In the eyes of these companies, Nie Wei's favor is obviously much more important than Luke's.
And those artists under Luke, Thomas just let the scouts of Max Films contact a few times, and then turned these guys against him, and the little resources exposed in the fingers of Max Films represented by Nie Wei are all unattainable for these artists, and the key is that they did buy Luke's oppression, and with Max Films as a backer, they also have the confidence to resist.
Half an hour later, Nie Wei met with Joseph and Laker, who had just returned, in the conference room of Max Films.
Naturally, Nicker Nie Wei praised Lekel and rewarded him at the same time, and Joseph also reported everything that happened in the office to Nie Wei by the way.
Hearing the last reply that Joseph left for Luke, Nie Wei couldn't help but smile and give a thumbs up.
"Well done, Joseph. ”
"Still thanks to your help. Joseph said gratefully, collecting so many human and physical evidence in a week, in Joseph's opinion, Nie Wei must have spent a lot of money.
For his own business, Nie Wei was so dedicated, Joseph was really grateful from the bottom of his heart.
"Mr. Nie, let me be presumptuous, my parents know about your help to me and want to invite you to a dinner party, I don't know ......"
"Of course, tomorrow night, just when I'm free. Nie Wei was also very interested in Joseph's parents.
When he was casting, he was able to choose Joseph, mainly because his parents asked the owner of a Hollywood film company, and then through this boss, recommended Joseph to Nie Wei.
Joseph's parents' own professional identity is insignificant, but their identity as the founders of the Jewish Progressive League is something that Nie Wei is very interested in.
You must know that many actors and film company owners in Hollywood are Jewish, and if you can establish contacts with these people through Joseph's parents, it will be of great help to the development of Max Films.
Seeing Nie Wei gladly accept the invitation, Joseph was very happy, in his opinion, Nie Wei originally intended to participate in his family banquet, that is, to treat him as his own.
The next night, Nie Wei went to Joseph's house as promised and had dinner with his family.
After that, when Joseph's parents attended the dinner again, many friends asked them about Nie Wei, intentionally or unintentionally.
"Nie Wei brought a bottle of '88 Potus with me that day, and a bouquet of flowers, and my wife and I were very pleased with these gifts, he was a very cultured man, he had a good conversation, he was erudite, and he even knew something about my radio work. Dennis praised.
"And the lad is even more handsome than he looks on TV. Jenny added with a smile, and the women around her all chuckled when they heard this, and it was obvious that handsome guys were a topic that women all had a tacit understanding of.
Nie Wei's good name spread quickly through the mouths of Dennis and Jenny among American Jewish circles, and the evaluations of his compatriots were far more true to them than what they saw in the news and materials.
Many people have a good first impression of Nie Wei, and seeing that the heat is almost over, Nie Wei also decided to hold a private party in his seaside villa, and the guests are handed over to Dennis and Janie to be in charge.
A party allowed Nie Wei to get to know a lot of Jewish directors, actors and bosses engaged in all aspects of this circle, because of this party, Nie Wei also established a preliminary friendship with these people, and the rest is how to maintain these relationships, so that this group of people can become a small satellite around Max Films and Nie Wei.
While Nie Wei was busy building more contacts in Hollywood, Chen Daoming and Zhang Ziyi were also working on film promotions.
Starting from Los Angeles, in a week's time, they traveled through 10 states and 17 cities, and the two of them worked together to get tired of resting for less than five hours a day.
It's tiring, but watching those Americans cheer and cheer for their movie makes the fatigue on both of them wipe out.
It's a pity that the mental excitement can't really relieve the fatigue of the body, when the publicity trip is over, the two of them collapsed without accident, Chen Daoming returned to the hotel on the day, a lie is twelve hours, and Zhang Ziyi is even more powerful, from twelve o'clock at noon that day, until eight o'clock the next morning, a full twenty hours.
You can see how tired they are.
After the two woke up, Nie Wei specially arranged a spa for them, and also found a famous local masseur to relieve the fatigue of the two.
After the massage, Nie Wei also prepared a seafood feast and entertained two people in his seaside villa.
Eating this abalone and drinking red wine, Chen Daoming showed a comfortable look on his face and said with a smile: "Nie Wei, although this American propaganda activity of the sea villa is tiring, it is worth it, I really didn't expect that there would be foreigners in this life who could call my name, although it is only the name in the movie, but it is worth it." ”
As an actor of Chen Daoming's generation, he is the most eager to be recognized by the market outside the mainland.
They want to be recognized by Hong Kong, Baodao, Japan and South Korea, and what they want most is naturally the recognition of Hollywood in Europe and the United States.
Therefore, directors of that era, who could win awards at major international film festivals, would immediately be praised to the sky.
Chen Daoming didn't think at that time that he would act in a movie and suddenly become popular abroad, becoming an international superstar like Cheng Long and Li Xiaolong, of course, because of development reasons, he buried these unrealistic ideas in his heart, but he didn't expect that one day he would be able to dig it out and even realize it.
Listening to Chen Daoming's emotion, Zhang Ziyi was also happy.
He is in a much better situation than Chen Daoming, the international chapter is not called fake, when "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" came out, she didn't know how many foreign boys were worshiped as oriental goddesses.
But it was the first time she had experienced it as hot as it was now.
"Nie Wei, my company has received a lot of Hollywood scripts, do you think I should go next. Zhang Ziyi suddenly asked Nie Wei, she felt that Nie Wei could give her very important advice in this regard.
"Is there a female number one?" Nie Wei thought for a moment and asked.
"No, only one is the female number two. Zhang Ziyi replied.
"Sister, if you originally wanted to change to a brokerage company, I can give you another female number one. Nie Wei said suddenly.
