Chapter 218: Clearing Grievances
When MJ walked out of the courthouse, he was in tears in the face of overwhelming applause, cheers, flowers, and people's smiles full of goodwill, and he was choked up with excitement in the face of reporters' questions, and he couldn't speak for a long time, and finally he just said, "Thank you! Thank you so many people who have always supported me, trusted me, and helped me." β
MJ saw Kenny clapping and laughing in the crowd, as well as Mark and his girlfriend beside him. The housekeeper accused him, and even his family condemned him, only Kenny ran for him, and successfully brought in reinforcements, and turned defeat into victory, if it weren't for them, the nightmarish humiliation of the past year would have dragged on, whenever he thought of it, his heart was excited, and the gratitude in his heart could not be expressed in words, he pushed away the reporter, strode over, hugged Kenny into his arms, and said loudly: "Thank you very much, my friend, I thank you forever for what you have done for me." β
Kenny grinned and smiled happily, "That's what a friend should do." β
Mark and Giselle interlocked their fingers and snuggled together, once Mark put on his sunglasses, he looked cold, standing side by side with Nana's fashionably dressed Giselle, it seemed so right, he was Kennyla, let him come together to show support for MJ, Mark saw that the work was not too busy, so he followed.
Mark is very sympathetic to MJ's plight, even if he is not a fan of MJ, but he agrees with many things about MJ, he is obsessed with art, keen on charity, as for his plastic surgery and drug dependence, this is a private matter, as a public figure, he has never passed on those incorrect thoughts, his ending should not be so tragic, and he is also very pleased to see his happy appearance of restoring his reputation.
MJ also hugged Mark into his arms and said, "You are my forever friend. β
Mark said, "We made it!"
Michael said, "I'm going to have a celebration party at Neverland tonight, and you guys have to come." β
"It's a great honor, but tonight my new film 'Wedding Guests' premieres in Los Angeles, and I have to be there," Mark said. β
MJ smiled, "Congratulations, my friend, remember to give me a ticket." β
MJ's appeal is huge, he came to cheer, the box office pull is obvious, Mark is very welcome, he said: "It's a great honor, it's just your celebration party?"
"I'll wait until you're free, but there's still some time, and I'm cordially inviting you to come to Neverland as a guest in Santa Barbara, and as the host, I can't be so rude, I have the best beer in the city," Michael said. β
Mark asked Giselle, "Shall we go to play together?"
Giselle smiled, "I listen to you. β
MJ immediately said to Casio, "Inform the butler and welcome our guests with the highest courtesy." Compared with the cold Martin, MJ prefers to deal with Mark, everyone is a person in the entertainment industry, and they are talented people, and they have a lot in common, while Martin is a guy who only has scheming and interests.
Casio was fully aware of Mark's role in this matter, and he admired Mark's strategy and ability to the fullest, and he should have said it loudly with pleasure.
When Mark and the others were invited to visit Neverland, MJ's lawyer McConaughey said: "The Municipal District Prosecutor's Office and the court have acted warmly and shady in this lawsuit, and this mistake has dealt a major mental blow and major economic losses to MJ, and we do not rule out the possibility of holding the relevant departments and personnel accountable and demanding compensation." β
What is even worse is that when the Los Angeles County Federal Attorney's Office prosecuted Motorola, he admitted all the charges and admitted that he bribed Sneddon, and all this was just to seize the shares of ATV, and he did it for the sake of performance and to keep his position, without being instructed and appointed by the Sooni group, and even the 500,000 bribes were spent from his private account.
This guy is trapped in prison, controlled by Martin's people, he can say whatever he wants, he used to be the president of a listed company who is incredible, and now he is a phoenix with plucked hair, not even as good as a chicken, which has become an important weapon for Martin to threaten Soni and seize Gambia.
As soon as Motorola's testimony came out, the media and the public expressed disbelief, which was too insulting to people's intelligence, and Sooni said that this was the truth, Soni is a legal and regular company, and has always advocated doing business above board, legally, and will not engage in these side-of-the-road tricks, and if Jackson wants to take the ATV away, they will not object, nor will they ask for any financial compensation.
But MJ, who was in charge, believed and accepted the result, saying, "Motora is a greedy man, and I believe he can do it all." β
MJ's statement is tantamount to pulling Sooni out of this whirlpool, not bringing greater risks and crises to them, MJ also called on those who resisted the protest Soni to go home, all this is just the fault of Motorola, Soni is just not strictly regulated, and they also pay a heavy price for their lax supervision, MJ's expression and call are part of the agreement, he must do so.
In this incident, many people have made a lot of money, Mark has repaid forty percent of his debts in this case, and he feels much better, while Martin and the group behind him have made countless profits, listening to Martin's tone, Columbia Pictures is just a trophy, and Soni has been removed from the top ten media, and among the world's top 500 companies, the ranking has plummeted from the top 30 to the bottom 30, and the losses are extremely heavy.
After a battle, Soney's claws into Hollywood were cut off, and the once mighty Columbia fell from fourth to sixth among the seven, with MGM at the bottom, but Martin's Columbia Pictures has a half-completed acquisition agreement, and as long as it pays another $2.5 billion, MGM can be acquired.
In the original Sonycolombia plan, they plan to merge the two major companies' film libraries, they will have the most film resources, just the annual DVD rental and sales, TV broadcasts, etc. can bring them hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue, with the largest resource library, they can also make their own voices in Blu-ray DVD format and HD format, the combination of software and hardware, in the development of standards to speak is the real source of money, but all this, now finally come to naught.
MGM has had a good life for a few days since the movie broke out in the 90s, making a little money, and after 2,000 years, there has been no blockbuster movie launch, in the case of casino tycoon Cork, he is a burden, but as a master of asset management, he sold a high price of 5 billion, MGM is now his film library, the 007 series and MGM are worth a little money, this time Martin and Cork colluded together, and they cheated Soni fiercely, they first siphoned off Soni's liquidity, and then suddenly shot, which made Soni so powerless in response to the crisisγ
Of course, Martin completed this transaction immediately, as long as 2.5 billion US dollars, he could take MGM, which was quite cost-effective, the high price of 5 billion, Soni paid half of it, and Martin also operated a sum of money for Cork, and let the tycoon make a lot of money, and Cork, who was happy to cooperate, was happy to sell MGM.
Now Colombia has a lot of resources and distribution channels all over the world, but no movie has been released, and now Martin is busy annexing and digesting this giant company, as for how the Dongying people crisis public relations, this is their business.
And Motora and Sneddon have become the frustrated ones in this matter, and have become the victims of fate, Snedon is resolutely denying all the accusations, saying that he is just doing business, not accepting bribes, and not deliberately slandering MJ, he was framed, but in the face of "ironclad evidence", his rebuttal is so pale and weak, he has changed three lawyers, because the other party is persuading him to admit guilt and strive for a reduced sentence, if his accusations are confirmed, he will be sentenced to 15 years, if he pleads guilty, he will only be sentenced to 10 years.
Snedon said angrily: "I didn't do anything, why should I confess?"
In the eyes of the world, he is a heinous, profit-hungry villain, a judicial scum, Mark knows that he is wronged, he just wants to take advantage of this incident to become famous before biting MJ, but the work is out of bounds, and he has not broken the law, the so-called evidence is all made by Martin, Mark is knowingly acquiesced, he does not feel guilty because of this, there is no unjust ghost in the temple? MJ can do it if he is unlucky, why can't he do it?
After visiting Neverland, Mark returned to Los Angeles, he had to prepare for the premiere of "The Wedding Guest", this time they chartered the China Grand Theater as the premiere venue, all the preparations will be done, Mark is just there, as the producer, director, screenwriter of the film, he is the soul of the movie, if not there will be everything overshadowed.
Among the four leading actors of "Wedding Guest", Heath, David Lee, Rachel, and Ella Fischer each have a lot of appeal, while Christopher Walken and Jane Seymour are gold medal green leaves, acting skills, more than 1,500 tickets at the premiere are of course all sold, and more than 2,000 fans came to cheer on the scene, which was particularly lively.
And they inevitably held a red carpet show, which is the annual masterpiece of the big boss, Mark helped the empty group, and Meghan, who was far away in New York, also held a premiere in New York, like the "Youth" crew, "Saw 2" crew, and "Grey's Anatomy" The main actors and creators came and rubbed the red carpet, including Mark's ex-girlfriend Blake and little lover Amber, this is an opportunity to be in the limelight, they are all here.
As Mark's parents, David and Sophia, of course, came to show their support, and it happened that Donald had something to do to go back to Los Angeles, so he participated by the way, because this is an R-rated movie, not suitable for children, Kayla can't come to watch, among Mark's relatives and friends, she is the only one who is unhappy and super unhappy, and the whole family is the only one who can't come, she is angry and crying, and Mark has a lot of effort to coax her back, and of course there is a price.
Thank you to the local tyrant book friends The happiest thing is that you are fatter than me 50,000 starting coins, thank you for the support, thank you, Commonwealth.
