However, just as Jonas was preparing for the battle, he received a call from his grandmother. "Nicole seems to be in a bit of trouble, she knows you're in Paris, but she can't find you, so she can only call me. ”

"Do you know what's going on?"

"Do you think I'll be interested?"

Well, his grandmother is such a lonely person, except for these relatives and friends, she is a little cold to everyone.

Originally, she still regarded Nicole as her own, but after Nicole took the initiative to refuse, she began to be estranged from Nicole.

Although the training is closed, the team does not restrict the players from making phone calls.

Jonas dialed Nicole's phone in Los Angeles, and Nicole on the other end of the line cried when she heard Jonas's voice. "Honey, I made a mistake and was deceived by Miramax. ”

Miramax, hearing the name, Jonas had a fat-headed, big-eared, pig-like man in his heart.

"Don't cry, I'm here, tell me what I swore on. ”

Things aren't complicated, and they're a contract trap that Hollywood often encounters.

After returning to Los Angeles from Switzerland, Nicole and Miramax signed a contract for a film called "Pell the Conqueror", in which she played a peasant girl who played an important role.

This peasant girl has a charming appearance, which is in line with Nicole's image, because she is the girl that the protagonist falls in love with, and it affects the development of the plot of the movie, and the character is relatively attractive.

If that's all there is to it, it's a normal contract.

However, there is a clause in the contract that the producer has the right to slightly modify the image of the character.

After the contract was signed, the other party has now changed the role of this peasant girl, including a scene of her being completely naked.

Nicole didn't even accept the kiss scene, how could she be naked in front of the camera, so she wanted to discuss with the other party to modify the role, but was refused.

What frightened Nicole even more was that the fat pig had very obvious hints and threats between words.

This is also the most angry place for Jonas, how can Nicole be his forbidden belly, how can he allow it to be defiled by that fat pig. "What did your agent say?"

"He advised me to keep the contract because I couldn't win the lawsuit. ”

Jonas comforted her and said, "Don't worry, don't contact the other party, I'll take care of this." ”

Hanging up the phone, he thought about it and made a call to Alain Ryder first.

It was an evening in France, or a morning in Los Angeles, and Jonas easily found Alain Ryder, who was still in the office.

After telling Alain Ryder about it, Jonas said, "I want you to put a little pressure on CAA's partners to get a more reliable agent for Nicole." If the other party does not agree, assist Nicole in rescinding the brokerage contract with them. Also, what's your relationship with Weinstein?"

Alain Ryder said with a bit of a headache, "Do you know Darrell Zanuk?"

Jonas nodded and said, "I learned a little bit about it when I was in Los Angeles last year, he is the former head of Fox and one of the creators of Hollywood's unspoken rules. ”

Alain Ryder said: "I took the Fox presidency from him, and he has a close relationship with Weinstein. ”

Jonas understood, that is, not only could they not speak, but there was even a little contradiction between them.

"Alright then, Weinstein's side, I'll let Milkan talk to him. ”

Alain Ryder was afraid that Jonas would be angry, so he explained again. "Jonas, I hope you understand. ”

Jonas laughed. "No, I won't blame you for that. ”

Hanging up, Jonas dialed Milkan's phone in Dongying this time.

In recent times, Milkan has been presenting himself as Jonas's agent, helping him with his affairs in Dongying.

At this time, it was only after the phone was dialed at two o'clock in the morning that Jonas remembered. But Milkan answered the phone as soon as possible.

For an adventurer like him who is on the verge of life and death, he is very vigilant at all times. Knowing what was happening, he immediately laughed and said, "It's just a small thing, I don't think Harvey won't give me face." ”

Hearing him address him as Harvey, Jonas asked, "You have a good relationship with him?"

Milkan laughed, "I'm an outsider, his native barbarian, so we basically don't mess with river water, and some of the time, the air conditioning is against those stubborn old guys and film companies." ”

Jonas confessed, "If that's the case, I want you to help me get a message to him so that he doesn't harass Nicole in the future." ”

"Of course, Jonas. Our relationship is closer. ”

Hanging up the phone, a white greasy arm climbed up Milkan's neck. "Sir, do you want to continue?"

Milkan's hand took advantage of it again, and said with a smile: "Wait for me to make a phone call, and then I'll accompany you." ”

In Los Angeles, Weinstein sits in his crowded office, his desk piled high with all sorts of scripts.

The phone rang, and he put down the script in his hand and picked up the phone. "This is Weinstein. ”

"Harvey, I'm Arnolde. ”

"Hello, Arnolde. Why did the script of "Whimsical" refuse our investment, you know, this script was dug up by me first. ”

"Harvey, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have gotten this script. Now, the creative team doesn't want to deal with you at all. ”

"That's because of your presence, if it weren't for your sideways, they would have only succumbed to me. ”

Milkan didn't want to dwell on him about it, so he asked directly, "Did you sign a show deal with an actress named Nicole Kidman?"

The smile on Weinstein's face quickly froze. "Arnhorn, don't cross the line. ”

"I know the rules, Harvey. The Whimsical team simply doesn't want to work with you right now, so I don't want this to affect our relationship. This Nicole, I hope you'll let her go. ”

Weinstein laughed: "I've investigated, although she participated in your last movie, there should be no relationship between you." Besides, I don't care if it has a relationship......"

"Harvey, I'm not kidding you. This Nicole is a friend of a friend of mine, and she has a responsibility for her safety in Hollywood. ”

"Wow. Sounds like a big shot. If her belt is so loose, why should you be nervous?"

"Not nervous, just a kind reminder as a friend. You can look up the Kidman family in Australia. ”

"I know it's a rich family, and this Nicole isn't the main branch yet. ”

"Looks like you've done a lot of homework. ”

"Of course, I've always been aware of what you can and can't touch. This chick is the most charming I've ever seen, and of course I'm going to check it out. ”

"Then do you know why she came to Hollywood at the age of sixteen and was still under the care of Fox?"

Weinstein's brain spun around quickly, sifted through what he knew, and said, "I know of a genius who picked three movies for Fox, oh no, it should be five, and now there are two big hits, and the remaining three have the potential to be big hits." ”

"What do you want to say?"

"You can help me tell him to collaborate on a movie, or my Miramax won't be able to open the pot. ”

"It can't be. ”

"Then I can only say that it is a pity. ”

Milkan's voice hardened, and he asked, "Harvey, while others have always thought of you as a jerk, I appreciate your vision and style of doing things. When you use this against me, do you want to go to war?"

"Nope. Of course not. It's just Arnhorn, it's not your style either. You know I don't like to be threatened, what's more, this matter has nothing to do with you, and the other party may agree?"

Encountering this scoundrel, Milkan also had a feeling that he could not be forced.

The Weinstein brothers are like two barefoot men who have broken into a feast, and if they can't eat, their favorite thing to do is to flip the table, and no one can eat.

Mirkan looked down on them, but in Armenia, he could only be a strong dragon, and it was difficult to suppress him.

After thinking about it, he dialed Jonas again. "Jonas, I'm sorry, Xavi doesn't want to give up easily. ”

Jonas didn't expect Arnone to come forward and asked, "Why?"

"Miramax is in a bad financial situation right now, and almost all of the money they make on record distribution is lost on movies. And your fame has already spread in Hollywood, so he helps him pick a movie that is a big hit. ”

Jonas asked, "What is your problem?"

"I'm the one who is being watched closely by the Armenian Security Department, and I can't make any mistakes if I want to develop in Hollywood. ”

"I see. Thank you, Uncle Arnhorn. ”

Hanging up, Jonas groaned.

He still has a few people to work with......

Marvin Davis is in Los Angeles, but he's one of the top 20 richest people in the country, and he doesn't owe favors.

In addition to him, Jonas has several connections to the Armenian underground, all of which have funds in Hoffman's private bank and investment bank.

However, it is not cost-effective to use these favors just for a trivial matter.

After some consideration, he decided to test the reaction of an underground force in Los Angeles.

The underground force transferred a sum of money from Central America into a company registered in Cayman by Hoffman Investment Bank, which is not black money, but it is not so clean.

Now, this money enters Dongying, and it is washed in Dongying, and whether it is deposited in Switzerland or transferred back to Armenia in the future, it will become clean.

Finding the notebook with which the phone was registered, Jonas dialed the number of Rodriguez, with whom he had dinner.

"Hello, Jonas, it's an honor to receive your call, what can I do for you?"

Facing him, Jonas was not as blunt as he was facing Milkan. "Let me tell you a story. ”

Jonas tells a story about Nicole's experience and Weinstein's reaction. The other party is very direct. "What do you want me to do?"

"Not me. It's none of the business with me, you know?"

"Of course. It's just that my friend is having a hard time, so to help. And you, didn't call. ”
