Chapter 758: Envoy

In the face of the accusations of the New York Times, Disney held a press conference on the same day and took a tough attitude - refusing to change the decision!

Disney's press spokesman, Zeny Muxia, refuted all of the New York Times' criticisms and said that Disney had told Harvey Weinstein a year ago that neither Disney nor Miramax would release Fahrenheit 911.

It is conceivable that Disney, which hinders "freedom of the press", has been strongly criticized and questioned by the industry.

Just when Disney was being attacked by a group, Donn welcomed a mysterious guest in the living room of his office, the presidential envoy.

To tell the truth, let alone the special envoy, even the president himself has no right to interfere with other people's freedom of speech and all legal acts.

However, after all, he is the president, and he has to give the necessary face.

The envoy was a white man in his thirties, named Zachary, who was polite and wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses and looked young. Holding a black leather bag in his arms, he looks like an ordinary white-collar worker, no different.

"Okay, no more polite words, let's get straight to the point. ”

After a brief greeting, Don picked out the topic.

Zachary was stunned for a moment, then coughed lightly and said, "Mr. Walker, I am ...... on behalf of Mr. President."

"Alright!" Don waved his hand and frowned, "I'm sorry, I'm very busy with work, can I just say something if I have something to say?"

Don saw him to negotiate a deal.

Instead of listening to admonitions.

The two sides are on an equal footing, and if you want to use the status of the president to oppress people, then you have made a mistake and get out of here as soon as possible!

Zachary's face was bitter, and he had no choice but to say: "Mr. Walker, yes, in the past few years, you have barely made any statements in front of the media about politics, war, and the White House, for which Mr. President has entrusted me to express my gratitude to you. ”

Donne's face looked a little better and nodded, "I'm a businessman and a director. I don't understand the general trend of the country, and it's not convenient for me to express my opinion. ”

Zachary looked excited, as if he wanted to introduce Don as a confidant, "Mr. Walker, what you said is so right! I hate that many ignorant fools can't figure out the situation at all, so they criticize the policies of the White House all day long, and even our GIs are fighting bloody battles on the front line, but they are ...... behind"

"Well, I said, I'm not interested in those topics. Don interrupted him again, his face indifferent.

Zachary smiled awkwardly, thought for a moment, and said bluntly: "Mr. Walker, a few days ago, in front of many media, you said that our soldiers did not find weapons of mass destruction in Iraq......"

"Wait!"

Don waved his hand, interrupted again, and frowned: "I think you misunderstood, my remarks did not mean to target the White House and the military, I just stood in the perspective of readers and criticized the absurdity of the New York Times to fake news." ”

"I know, but it's having a bad impact. Zachary said curtly.

Tang En's eyes were like knives, and he looked at it fiercely.

Zackery is in his thirties and is nominally a special presidential envoy, but in fact he has no official status, and is estimated to be the son and nephew of George W. Bush. The level is very average, and when Tang En stared at him like this, his face turned red with a "sigh".

Tang En said coldly: "There are hundreds of millions of people in the world who talk about weapons of mass destruction! What do you mean, if others can talk about it, I can't say it? Besides, you should know better than me whether Iraq has weapons of mass destruction, right? Do we need to start a discussion on this topic?"

"No...... That's not what we meant. ”

Zachary's sweat came down. He really didn't expect that the young man in front of him was several years younger than himself, but his eyebrows were condensed, his aura was released, and his fierce momentum was sharper than many political bigwigs.

Tang En took the coffee, took a sip unhurriedly, and said lightly: "Okay, there is no need to talk nonsense, and there is no need to use the means of drinking." Tell me about your real purpose for coming here today. ”

Zachary was so ashamed that he was so embarrassed that he wanted to stuff his head into his crotch.

There is only one feeling, the errand is smashed!

He also thought that by criticizing the remarks on weapons of mass destruction, he would first deter and scare Don, and then move on to the next thing, which would get twice the result with half the effort.

Unexpectedly, the young Don En didn't eat this set at all!

Extremely strong!

"Yes...... Hehe, Mr. President especially admires Mr. Turner, oh, it's Ted Turner. You know, he played a role in the development of journalism in the United States. He has made an indelible contribution to press freedom in the United States. ”

The corners of Donn's mouth hooked, slightly contemptuous.

Really!

It's Ted Turner!

I heard Zachary continue: "During this time, I ...... Well, Mr. President, I know that there have been some misunderstandings between you, but they are all unnecessary little contradictions, and it is just a matter of meeting and chatting, and it really doesn't matter. Mr. Turner has been under a lot of pressure lately because of the MGM affair, and he is getting older......"

"That's it!"

Don unceremoniously interrupted again.

Zachary's tears were about to fall.

Why is this Donn Walker so domineering?

Don't let people talk?

How many times have you been interrupted?

Tang Encai didn't care so much, glanced at him, and asked casually: "Today's New York Times, have you read it?"

"No, I took off early in the morning from Washington/Sheaton and came all the way here. ”

Zachary was a little confused, not knowing what Donn meant.

Donn smiled and asked Ella Fisher to bring a copy of The New York Times, with the front page of the article "Disney is blocking the release of a film critical of President Bush."

Zachary's eyes widened as he began to read.

It's an election year.

President George W. Bush is already preparing for a lecture tour around the world.

In order to gain the support of the public, he even lowered the tax rate by a large amount again, introducing a one-time and very large tax incentive for a period of one year to encourage companies to repatriate overseas profits, and the tax rate is only 5.25%, far below the statutory tax rate of 35%. (As mentioned earlier, the United States is a global tax, and overseas funds flow back to the country, and they have to pay taxes twice, so the overseas funds of American companies often stay overseas.) )

If at this time, a film criticizing President George W. Bush is released, what kind of negative social effects will it have?

Don looked at his increasingly ugly face and smiled slightly, "This movie is called Fahrenheit 911, the director is Michael Moore, and Harvey Weinstein is the producer. ”

"This ...... This ......"

Zachary was already a little speechless.

The initiative of the conversation has been completely shifted to Donn.

Tang En said lightly: "There are some things, it doesn't hurt to tell you. Harvey Weinstein is a bastard, he has violated a lot of actresses, and somebody stabbed the news to the New York Times, and guess what? He called, and the New York Times obediently pulled down the report, don't you think it's strange? What about the justice and professional ethics of the news media?"

Zachary was stunned, as if he hadn't reacted yet.

Donn had no choice but to continue: "Harvey Weinstein, he's just a Hollywood independent producer, what is his ability to influence a big newspaper like the New York Times? Not to mention him, even if it's New Universal, Disney, and Woody Allen, isn't the New York Times just right?"

Zachary's eyes widened, and his face trembled.

Don pointed to the copy of the New York Times in his hand and said, "I didn't see the operation behind it, but we all have brains and can guess a few points." Now I have two questions: first, why did Harvey Weinstein dare to disobey Michael Eisner and stab the news of "Fahrenheit 911" to the "New York Times"? Second, "The New York Times" can't even afford to offend Harvey Weinstein, so why does he dare to offend Disney?"

Zachary gasped, as if he had finally figured it out, and blurted out, "Because Harvey Weinstein has someone behind him!"

What is a more powerful force than Disney?

It's the Democrats!

Only the Democratic Party will spare no effort to push Harvey Weinstein to release films like "Fahrenheit 911" at this time, so as to discredit Bush Jr. and then affect the election results.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Walker, I'm going to give it to my uncle...... Give Mr. President a call. Zachary was so anxious that he exposed all the details.

"Wait!" Donn almost laughed, interrupting him again, "Ted Turner's ......"

Zachary was about to cry, and stood up and said goodbye: "Mr. Walker, don't joke with me, at this time, who cares about such a trivial matter...... Thank you, Mr. Walker, for the information, and Mr. President will thank you for your help and kindness. I'll go first, we'll see you again when we have a chance!"

……

Looking at the back of Zachary leaving in a panic, Don couldn't help but be happy.

I don't know if President George W. Bush is busy campaigning, and high-end talents have been sent out to prepare for the general election, so he actually sent a mallet.

But it's okay, it's easy!

The matter between Fahrenheit 911 and Harvey Weinstein is not over, and there will be contact in the future.

Don slowly fell silent, thinking about more things.

In order to save his reputation, Ted Turner borrowed his connections from the White House.

It can be seen that he really doesn't want to carry the black cauldron of cholera MGM.

He took his reputation very seriously.

So...... Is it necessary for him to instruct Mia Farrow to argue with him? What good will it do him? Doesn't that deepen the conflict?

Behind Mia Farrow, it doesn't seem to be Ted Turner.

Lei Shidong is even more different.

This year's Super Bowl was broadcast live on CBS.

Coincidentally, Jenny Jackson had a scandal at the Super Bowl.

Indecent footage was seen by children all over the country, and there were many accusations and protests.

This made it even worse for CBS, and it had to pay a hefty fine.

Lei Shidong, who is anxious, still has the energy to deal with himself?

Don shook his head.

Lei Shidong and Ted Turner can almost be ruled out.

So the question is, who is behind Mia Farrow?

Of course, maybe she didn't even know it herself.

A stupid woman, hired for money, used as a gun. (https:)
